After ng Fei finished speaking, he scanned the entire auction hall.
He saw many Cultivators with hesitant expressions on their faces.
"Fellow Daoists, although this Body Refining Cultivation Technique is difficult to master, it is still a rare Jindan Stage thod."
At this point, ng Fei decided to add fuel to the fire.
"Moreover, once this Body Refining Cultivation Technique is successfully Cultivated, one will have a certain resistance to lightning-type Spells in the future."
"Even the rumored Lightning Tribulation can provide at least a thirty percent success rate!"
ng Fei's tone varied, full of emotion.
Surprisingly, with his impassioned cry, a few Cultivators were indeed moved.
"I, I bid six hundred Spirit Stones!"
"Seven hundred!"
"...Eight hundred Spirit Stones!"
However, there were still not many price increases.
Clearly, many Cultivators still had a realistic understanding of themselves.
Even though ng Fei boasted loudly about lightning resistance and Lightning Tribulation, how many Cultivators present could Cultivate to that level?
For the Loose Cultivators present, Foundation Establishnt was already a lifelong goal.
Core Formation was sothing they had never even considered.
Seeing the bidding slow down so much, ng Fei sighed.
He knew this item would be difficult to sell.
After all, Cultivating this thing was too expensive.
Even the Qingzhu Sword Sect, one of the Six Upper Sects, couldn't afford it.
After all, a third-tier Spirit Wood takes at least three hundred years to grow.
It could outlive a Foundation Establishnt Stage Cultivator.
Moreover, compared to using it for Body Refining, it was clearly more cost-effective to forge it into a Magic Treasure embryo.
Forging it into a Magic Treasure embryo, nurturing it for several years, and then crafting it into a Magic Treasure would be a tangible increase in combat power.
But for Body Refining, how many third-tier bamboo shoots would you need to consu?
Any normal person would not consider such a cost-ineffective usage.
This Cultivation Technique was likely researched by a Senior specifically to counter the Lightning Tribulation.
For ordinary Cultivators, its utility was limited.
However, Su Bai was sowhat interested.
She had Creation Essence in hand.
She didn't need third-tier Qingyun Thunder Bamboo; as long as she obtained first-tier ones and slowly cultivated them, it wouldn't take many years to Cultivate them to third-tier.
"Nine hundred Spirit Stones."
"This Fellow Daoist bids nine hundred Spirit Stones, are there any other Fellow Daoists willing to offer a higher price?"
"If not, this Jindan Stage Body Refining thod will belong to this Fellow Daoist!"
Listening to ng Fei's words, Su Bai thought for a mont and decided to buy it.
She directly bid one thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
"I bid one thousand Spirit Stones!"
ng Fei looked in the direction of the voice, discovering it ca from the VIP room, and loudly proclaid,
"This honored guest bids one thousand Spirit Stones!"
"Are there any other Fellow Daoists willing to bid?"
ng Fei tried asking a few more tis.
No one else spoke up.
He could only regretfully bring down the hamr.
"Since no one else is bidding, then this Jindan Stage Body Refining Cultivation Technique goes to the guest in the VIP room!"
Xu Changge looked at Su Bai, who had made the bid.
"Fellow Daoist Su, are you also interested in Body Refining Cultivation Techniques?"
Su Bai handed the Spirit Stones from her Storage Pouch to the maid who entered the room, then nodded.
"Slightly interested, I want to see the thods for countering Lightning Tribulation in this Cultivation Technique."
Hearing Su Bai's answer, Xu Changge remained noncommittal.
However, she did realize sothing.
She understood why she had sensed a hint of threat from Su Bai.
It turned out she was also a Body Cultivator.
Even if a Body Cultivator was only at the First Stage - Middle Stage, if they got close to a Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Cultivator, they could pose a threat if the latter hadn't activated their defensive Magical Artifact.
Xu Changge didn't think Su Bai's Body Refining cultivation had reached the First Stage - Late Stage.
Because Body Refining consud too many resources.
Furthermore, Su Bai was already an Alchemist, a profession that also heavily consud resources for practice, and she usually didn't have many Cultivation resources.
To be able to Cultivate to the First Stage - Middle Stage of Body Refining was already a result of Xu Changge's high regard for Su Bai.
After Su Bai paid the Spirit Stones, it wasn't long before the auction house arranged for the "Heavenly Calamity Illusionary Thunder Body Tempering thod" to be delivered.
Su Bai took the Jade Slip and placed it against her forehead.
Her Divine Sense probed into it, checking its contents.
It was indeed as ng Fei had said.
However, the cultivation thod ng Fei described was relatively gentle.
If one wasn't afraid of death, they could also directly bathe in a lightning pool or find a Lightning Tribulation to Cultivate.
Clearly, Su Bai wasn't that foolish.
After a brief read, Su Bai placed the Jade Slip into her Storage Pouch.
She would Cultivate it later, after finding Qingyun Thunder Bamboo.
For now, she could only look.
Su Bai looked at the auction, which was nearing its end, and then at Xu Changge.
"Xu Daoyou, aren't you buying anything?"
Xu Changge rely shook her head.
"No, I'm not buying, but I've sold sothing."
Su Bai nodded.
Xu Changge probably ca to see how her consigned items at the auction were selling, and incidentally invited herself and Daoist Yang to join the fun.
Although there were many items at the auction, there would always be a ti when they sold out.
After the final item, a Foundation Establishnt Spirit Object, the auction quickly drew to a close.
When the auction ended, Xu Changge said to the others:
"Fellow Daoists, I'm going to collect my Spirit Stones. Please make yourselves at ho."
"See you next ti, Xu Daoyou."
"Thank you for the invitation, Xu Daoyou."
Seeing that Xu Changge still had things to do, the others greeted her and then left on their own.
Just as Su Bai reached the auction house entrance, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in the sky.
As a first-tier Low Grade Talisman Master, though her rank was low, Su Bai imdiately recognized that the light was emitted by a Talisman.
After the light, a roar followed, and then a strong gust of wind.
Su Bai raised her hand, casting a layer of magical energy to block the strong wind.
"What's going on?"
Just as Su Bai was still wondering, "Who is it? How audacious!"
An angry shout rang out from the auction house behind her.
Imdiately after, three figures shot up from the auction house into the sky!
It turned out that the Foundation Establishnt Old Ancestors of the three great Families were guarding the auction house.
Above the sky, Lin Shui looked with uncertainty at the source of the light.
Why did it seem to be in the direction of the Lin Family's ancestral land?
And this light...
"Oh no! It's a Formation-breaking Talisman!"
Lin Shui recognized it.
A bad premonition enveloped his heart.
"Old Ancestor! This is bad! The Lin Family's dicine garden has been attacked by an evil Cultivator!"
A shrill voice ca from the direction of the Lin Family's ancestral ho.
As soon as the voice fell, Lin Shui's figure vanished from his original spot, transforming into a streak of light and flying towards his Family's direction.
Lin Shui was extrely anxious.
The Lin Family's dicine garden was the cornerstone of the Lin Family!
Watching Lin Shui depart, ng Hai and Zhou Wei remained in place.
They hesitated, wondering whether to go and help.
For several years, their three Families had continuously pursued and apprehended the evil Cultivator.
That evil Cultivator, who was injured and arrived years ago, had not ceased his activities in these past few years.
Just as he hid, intending to recuperate peacefully, he was found by the people of the three great Families, who then pursued him relentlessly.
At this mont, it seed that the evil Cultivator had, by so secret thod, infiltrated the auction at Purple Bamboo Immortal Market.
He then obtained that second-tier Formation-breaking Talisman, and used it to open the defensive Formation of the Lin Family's dicine garden.
This was partly to retaliate against the Lin Family's pursuit of him over the years.
Secondly, it was to consu those Spirit dicines to recover from his injuries.
The remaining ng Hai and Zhou Wei did not imdiately go to help Lin Shui because they considered another possibility.
But this possibility quickly materialized.
From the directions of the Zhou Family and ng Family, screams also rang out.
"Old Ancestor! This is bad! The Zhou Family's dicine garden has been attacked by an evil Cultivator!"
"Old Ancestor! This is bad! The ng Family's dicine garden has been attacked by an evil Cultivator!"
Hearing these voices, ng Hai and Zhou Wei didn't have ti to wonder if the evil Cultivator wasn't just one person, or how he could attack all three Families simultaneously.
They could only rush back to provide support as quickly as possible, otherwise the losses would be imnse!
