"It seems everyone is in high spirits. Let’s move on to the next item." Lin Guang smiled slightly, drawing everyone’s attention back to himself.
The auction proceeded smoothly, the atmosphere growing ever tenser and more intense.
Subsequent auction items included cultivation techniques, inheritances of the hundred arts of immortality, exquisite talismans, upper-grade magical artifacts, and more.
Dazzling and continuous excitent.
During this ti, Xu Ping spent several hundred spirit stones to buy two second-stage lower-grade talismans, one offensive and one defensive.
However, in the second-floor private box, the atmosphere was uncommonly restrained, with only a few people placing bids while the rest remained silent, clearly waiting for sothing more valuable.
"Could there really be sothing good at this small auction?" Xu Ping’s eyes flickered with a trace of doubt.
The invitation Tian Li gave him included a catalogue, but it was only a partial list, and he didn’t know what else there might be.
Obviously, the distinguished guests in the second-floor private box knew more secrets.
As the auction continued, the people in the hall gradually caught on, and even their bidding enthusiasm began to wane.
But Lin Guang was unconcerned, as the auction was nearing its end, with only the final centerpiece item remaining.
Representatives from various forces perked up, focusing on this auction’s centerpiece, especially those in the second-floor private boxes.
"Honored guests, the mont you’ve been waiting for has co. The final auction item, the centerpiece of this event—Foundation Establishnt Pill!"
Lin Guang’s voice rose in excitent, like a whirlwind sweeping through the crowd.
Following his announcent, two Foundation Establishnt cultivators personally escorted the jade bottle containing the Foundation Establishnt Pill onto the tray.
One was an old man of ancient age, the other a middle-aged man clad in heavy armor, exuding a murderous aura.
"What!!"
"Foundation Establishnt Pill!!"
Lin Guang’s words were like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar in the hall.
Everyone’s eyes were glued to the jade bottle on the tray, so even with bloodshot eyes of madness, as if not for the two Foundation Establishnt cultivators guarding it, they would have already rushed forward to grab it.
Even Xu Ping’s heart couldn’t help but race, his fists clenched, his heart surging with excitent.
A Foundation Establishnt Pill!
He had spent so much effort, ti, and spirit stones, even risking to hunt second-stage demon beasts, only to gather materials to make a Foundation Establishnt Pill.
Now that an actual Foundation Establishnt Pill was right in front of him, how could one not be thrilled?
Compared to the hall’s fervent atmosphere, the second-floor private box was calm, clearly well aware of such matters.
"There’s no need for to elaborate on the significance of a Foundation Establishnt Pill. This pill not only stabilizes blood and ridians but also boosts mana and fosters divine sense. It increases the success rate of Foundation Establishnt by 30%, and failure won’t result in death by ridian rupture..."
Lin Guang’s voice echoed in the auction house, causing countless people in the hall to unconsciously hold their breath, filled with desire.
In the hall, people panted heavily, tempted by the lure of the Foundation Establishnt Pill. If not for the imposing presence of late-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivators, they would have long lost their sanity.
Even the people in the second floor could hardly contain themselves: "Alright, everyone knows about the Foundation Establishnt Pill. Let’s just get on with the auction."
Hearing this, Lin Guang smiled slightly, seeing that the atmosphere was well set. He declared loudly, "This Foundation Establishnt Pill starts at ten thousand spirit stones, with a minimum increase of five hundred each bid."
The starting price was like a bucket of cold water splashed on the crowd, instantly bringing their enthusiasm to a chilling low, the hall falling into silence.
Xu Ping was the sa, helplessly sighing in his heart: ’Even with a Foundation Establishnt Pill up for auction, it’s not really related to .’
Too expensive!
"Ten thousand five hundred spirit stones!!"
"Eleven thousand spirit stones!"
"Eleven thousand five hundred spirit stones!"
...
In contrast to the hall’s chill, the second-floor private boxes grew lively, the price racing upward like a wild horse, spirit stones seeming of no value to them.
Just hearing the constant escalation past ten thousand spirit stones caused so in the hall to feel dizzy.
As the price climbed to eighteen thousand spirit stones, so in the private boxes could no longer hold on and had to reluctantly give up.
They were not yet at the point of exhausting their family fortunes for a Foundation Establishnt Pill.
As the price neared twenty thousand, the number of bidders dwindled, leaving only two parties in the end.
"Nineteen thousand five hundred spirit stones! Any higher bids?"
"Twenty thousand spirit stones!" A resolute yet aged voice rang out as soon as the words were spoken.
Xu Ping recognized the voice as the Foundation Establishnt cultivator who had competed with him for the Profound Celestial Trapping Array.
"These Foundation Establishnt cultivators are indeed wealthy!" he thought to himself.
A full twenty thousand spirit stones; his room couldn’t contain them all.
"Twenty thousand five hundred spirit stones!" Another voice echoed from the second-floor private box, the atmosphere turning instantly volatile.
"Now the real show begins." The forces in the private boxes started to watch with interest.
"Old Li is already advanced in age, and his family lacks a new generation at the Foundation Establishnt. He is bound to win this Foundation Establishnt Pill, while his rival, the Ning family, certainly won’t let him easily obtain it without losses."
The two continued to outbid each other until the Foundation Establishnt Pill reached a staggering price.
Twenty-two thousand five hundred spirit stones!
"Old Li, do you really have that many spirit stones? Can you produce them?" a mocking voice arose.
"Humph, no need for you to worry about that. If you have the spirit stones, continue bidding; if not, shut up." Old Li snorted coldly, his tone incredibly firm.
"You’d best pray this Foundation Establishnt Pill will yield another Foundation Establishnt mber in your family," his opponent sneered before falling silent.
"Twenty-two thousand five hundred spirit stones for the first ti...Such a Foundation Establishnt Pill is rare indeed; miss this, and who knows when the next auction will be!" Lin Guang scanned the room, his tone enthusiastic.
However, the entire hall remained silent.
With that, Lin Guang didn’t delay further, quickly calling, "Foundation Establishnt Pill sold to the guest at VIP Stand Seven."
Under the watchful eyes of various forces, an elder with a youthful face and white hair, accompanied by a middle-aged cultivator at Qi Cultivation’s ninth layer, proceeded to the side hall for the transaction.
And with the sale of this Foundation Establishnt Pill, the auction gradually drew to a close.
"Thank you all for coming to support this event. This auction is now concluded, and we shall et again next ti!"
"Now, I kindly ask all of you to exit the venue in an orderly manner."
Lin Guang’s plump face was all smiles, presumably extrely satisfied with the auction’s result, with the profits likely being substantial.
He clasped his hands towards the crowd, speaking with a wide grin.
As his words fell, the surrounding doors slowly opened, and the attendees began to leave, with two n in black maintaining order on either side of the door.
Without lingering further, Xu Ping slowly stood up and exited the auction hall through the sa door he had entered.
