Chapter 378 Millennium Lightning Grass, Tracking [Subscription Request]

"A rare and precious magical pearl from the waters of a distant spiritual land. This kind of pearl is a spiritual object that has been nurtured by a second-level spiritual clam for hundreds of years. It has already generated its own magic power. It is extremely rare and precious. The starting price is 3,000 spiritual coins, and each bid must not be less than 100 spiritual coins!"

"This is also a rare water spirit jade from the distant Tianling land. It contains rich water spirit power and can be used to make medicine and weapons. The starting price is 2,000 spirit coins, and each bid must not be less than 100 spirit coins!"

……

Inside the Tianyuan Pavilion auction house, Zhou Chun sat in the VIP room, watching with a smile as the treasures he had consigned for auction were taken out one by one by the auctioneer and sold at high prices.

Today is the low-level auction held by Tianyuan Pavilion every seven days. Most of the rare treasures from the water that Zhou Chun brought out will be released at this auction.

And everything was just as he expected. After a few days of publicity by Tianyuan Pavilion, these rare treasures from the waters of Longyuan Lake were all sold at good prices, and there were basically no unsold items.

He waited in the private room for almost half a day until the auction ended.

Shortly after the auction ended, a white-haired old man knocked on the door of the private room where Zhou Chun was.

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Han. All the treasures you sent for auction have been sold. After deducting the commission, the total is 53,700 spirit coins. Please count them."

"Hahaha, thank you Manager Xu for your help."

Not long after, Zhou Chun walked out of the Tianyuan Pavilion auction house with a smile on his face.

Including the income from selling magic tools and elixirs at the stall, he has earned more than 100,000 spirit coins in Tianyuan Immortal City this time.

At the next intermediate auction, some of the treasures he had consigned for auction would be sold, and it was expected to bring in tens of thousands of spirit coins.

With these spirit coins in hand, he will be able to make a difference at the next high-end auction held every six months.

A month passed quickly.

On this day, Tianyuan Pavilion's semi-annual high-level auction was held, attracting many Purple Mansion cultivators and some Golden Core cultivators to participate.

Zhou Chun also spent 500 spirit coins to buy a private room for himself.

Previously, the private rooms he participated in low-level auctions were given to him by the auction house, but now for this kind of high-level auction he can only pay for the private rooms himself.

At this time, he had just entered the private room and the auction officially began.

"Dear fellow Taoists, I am Wei Yiqing, and I have been ordered to host this auction. I hope you can show your support and I wish you can get the items you want."

On the auction table, a thin man in white bowed and said a few polite words before getting straight to the point.

"The first treasure to be auctioned today is the magical spiritual material Earth Dragon Stone. This material is produced deep in the mountains and rivers, and is made from the good fortune of heaven and earth. It is an excellent material for refining earth-based magical weapons. The starting price is 150,000 spiritual coins, and each bid must not be less than 1,000 spiritual coins."

The man in white slapped the storage bag on his waist, and a five-foot-high ochre-colored boulder fell to the ground.

The huge rock seemed to weigh ten thousand pounds. When it fell to the ground, it pressed cracks into the diamond rock surface. There was a faint flash of light on it, which was very extraordinary.

"I'll give you 160,000 spirit coins!"

Soon, the first quotation came.

"One hundred and sixty-five thousand spirit coins!"

"One hundred and sixty-six thousand spirit coins!"

Quotes appeared one after another, as if everyone was a Jindan stage cultivator who was not short of money.

Of course Zhou Chun did not participate in the bidding, but he was also very concerned about the transaction price of this piece of earth dragon stone.

Because if there is a chance, he will also buy spiritual materials for Lin Hongyu to refine her own magic weapon.

But what made Zhou Chun feel a little stressed was that the price of the Earth Dragon Stone soon exceeded 200,000 spirit coins, and was finally bought by the first person who made the bid for 225,000 spirit coins.

It’s not that Zhou Chun can’t afford the price, but if he spends so many spirit coins to buy a spiritual material, he basically won’t be able to buy anything else.

"As expected, Jindan-stage cultivators are the real big spenders. It's really hard for a family without any assets to support a Jindan-stage cultivator!"

Zhou Chun sighed softly, the pressure was indeed not small.

The Zhou family's financial resources were already very rich, but supporting a Jindan-stage cultivator was still somewhat difficult.

Just as Zhou Chun was lamenting the difficulty of supporting a family, the auction gradually became lively after being warmed up by the treasure, the Earth Dragon Stone.

One by one, treasures suitable for Purple Mansion Stage cultivators were taken out for auction, including even elixirs that could improve the magic power of Purple Mansion Stage cultivators.

However, the price of this kind of elixir is really expensive. One pill is worth seven or eight thousand spirit coins, which is no less than the foundation-building pill.

Zhou Chun could only look on with envy.

It’s not that he can’t afford these elixirs, but Jingguo is currently in a turbulent time and the family’s spiritual coins need to be used for other things.

Only when the situation in Jingguo is completely stabilized can he use the spirit coins to purchase this kind of treasure. By then, with the financial resources of the Zhou family, it should be no problem to provide him with a stable pill every year.

"One thousand-year-old Thunder Grass. This spiritual grass was born from the thunder of heaven. It contains pure spiritual power of heavenly thunder. It is a must-have for refining certain special elixirs. It can also be used to practice certain special secret arts. The starting price is 30,000 spiritual coins. Each bid must not be less than 1,000 spiritual coins!"

On the auction table, the auctioneer took out a jade box and placed it in front of him. Inside was a purple-green magical herb that looked like a sugarcane seedling.

The auctioneer raised his hand and sent out a beam of spiritual power towards the spiritual herb. The silver-white spiritual patterns lingering on the stem of the spiritual herb suddenly burst into silver light and automatically released a thin silver lightning bolt to disperse the spiritual power. It was truly magical.

After seeing this scene, Zhou Chun also became alert.

"Thirty-five thousand spirit coins!"

He was the first to speak and directly bid the price.

This was the first time Zhou Chun bid since the auction began.

He was determined to get the thousand-year-old lightning grass.

The reason is simple: this thing is of great benefit to the growth and evolution of Silver Electric Thunder Python Baibai.

Although Baibai, the silver electric thunder python, has been promoted to a second-level top-grade monster for some time, it has not yet reached its growth limit.

Zhou Chun planned to wait until it had tapped its bloodline potential to the point where it could no longer be tapped before planning on transforming into a dragon.

This is different from when the Sky Blue Cloud Python transformed into a dragon.

The Sky Blue Cloud Python has the same origin as the Green Dragon's inner elixir that it can swallow. As long as it can digest the power of the dragon's inner elixir, there will be no problem in successfully transforming into a dragon.

However, Zhou Chun had no way of finding a third-level thunder dragon's inner elixir for the Silver Lightning Python, so he could only start with the Millennium Dragon Grass.

In comparison, the effect of the Millennium Dragon Grass is obviously far less than that of the dragon's inner elixir.

Therefore, the more the Silver Lightning Thunder Python can tap and develop its own bloodline potential, the higher the chance of successfully transforming into a dragon when it takes the Millennium Dragon Grass.

The thousand-year-old lightning grass in front of him was undoubtedly the perfect spiritual object to help the Silver Lightning Python tap into and develop its bloodline potential.

Baibai, the Silver Electric Thunder Python, is a thunder-attributed monster. If he can swallow this thousand-year-old thunder grass, he will be able to fully tap and develop the potential of his own thunder dragon bloodline under the tempering of the heavenly thunder spiritual power contained in the spiritual grass.

I wonder how many years of hard work this could have saved it!
However, for a thousand-year-old spiritual herb as rare as the Millennium Thunder Grass, there are naturally many people competing for it.

If Zhou Chun wants to take it, he will have to spend a lot of money. "Seventy-five thousand spirit coins!"

Zhou Chun bid again, and the price was already twice the starting price.

But even with such a high price, there are still two people who are unwilling to give up.

"I'll give you 78,000 spirit coins!"

"Eighty thousand spirit coins!"

Two voices, one old and one young, sounded one after another, and the price was negotiated very strictly.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun secretly groaned in his heart.

He knew that the monk who was bidding probably wanted to make use of the Millennium Thunder Grass just as he did.

When bidding, the most feared situation is this one.

Because once they come for something, many cultivators are willing to gamble their entire fortune in order to get it.

Otherwise, if you miss something like the Millennium Thunder Grass, you don’t know when you will come across it again.

"One hundred thousand spirit coins!"

Zhou Chun was unwilling to give up and shouted out a sky-high price in one breath.

One hundred thousand spirit coins can buy a spiritual item to assist in opening up the Purple Mansion.

As for an ordinary thousand-year-old elixir, ten thousand spirit coins are enough to obtain it.

Back then, also in the Great Zhou Kingdom, in the Xiandu Market, an egg of a high-level monster, the Poison Dragon Lizard, was auctioned for a sky-high price of less than 200,000 spirit coins.

It can only be said that Zhou Chun really tried his best for the sake of this thousand-year-old lightning grass and for the silver electric thunder python to successfully transform into a dragon.

And when he shouted out this sky-high price, the two people who had been bidding against him before fell silent.

It was not until a long while later that the old voice said calmly, "One hundred thousand spirit coins to buy a thousand-year-old spirit medicine. You are really bold. I have to admit defeat!"

After the words fell, another young man said calmly: "Forget it, since you are so determined to get it, I will also help you!"

Both of them gave up the bidding at the same time.

"Could these two guys be agents arranged by Tianyuan Pavilion?"

Zhou Chun muttered to himself with a look of pain on his face, not showing much joy for successfully bidding for the treasure.

If ordinary Zhou family cultivators knew that he spent 100,000 spirit coins to buy a thousand-year-old spirit herb, they would probably all call him a spendthrift.

After all, those were ten foundation-building pills!

But this is because you are standing at a different height and looking at things from a different perspective.

For Zhou Chun and other high-ranking members of the Zhou family, the fact that the family now has five or six more cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage does not actually have a significant impact. Instead, it will increase the family's expenses.

But if there is one more third-level thunder dragon, it will be of great use.

Not only does the third-level Thunder Dragon not receive family welfare offerings, it can also create dragon blood spiritual objects to sell for money. The dragon spiritual blood it produces is also a very rare item.

Not to mention the powerful combat power that a third-level thunder dragon can provide.

After bidding for the Millennium Thunder Grass, the spiritual coins Zhou Chun had in his hands shrank by almost half. In the following auctions, he almost became a spectator.

The reason why I said "almost" is because he did take action once during that period and used 45,000 spirit coins to purchase five third-grade top-quality talismans.

This is also what Zhou Mingde asked him to do during his visit to the Great Zhou Kingdom.

The war is imminent. Although the Zhou family is not weaker than others in strength, they naturally have to prepare some things like third-grade top-quality magic talismans that can be used as trump cards.

What made Zhou Chun secretly relieved was that there were no magical materials suitable for Lin Hongyu to use in refining her own magical weapon at this auction.

In this way, his decision to purchase the Millennium Thunder Grass was a relatively correct decision.

After the auction ended, the two treasures that Zhou Chun had won were delivered to his private room.

After paying 145,000 spirit coins, Zhou Chun left the auction house with the treasure.

The mission he had come to the Great Zhou Kingdom on this occasion had basically been completed, and he had no intention of staying here any longer. He just wanted to return to his family as soon as possible.

However, after Zhou Chun was some distance away from Tianyuan Fairy City, he suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if someone was watching him.

Is he being followed?
His face darkened, and he immediately raised his hand and patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, calling out the golden-winged tiger.

Then Zhou Chun let the golden-winged tiger carry him and fly at full speed, while he silently practiced his profound skills, poured his magic power into his eyes, and looked up at the sky behind him.

Zhou Chun had never practiced any secret arts of spiritual eyes, but after he reached the Purple Mansion Stage, the effect of infusing his eyes with magic power was no worse than that of an ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator performing the secret arts of spiritual eyes.

But no matter how he observed, he did not find anything unusual.

But the feeling of being watched never went away.

Zhou Chun had never encountered such a thing since he opened up the Purple Mansion. He didn't believe that this was his illusion.

"I didn't expect that such a thing would happen in a store as big as Tianyuan Pavilion!"

Zhou Chun rode the golden-winged tiger with a gloomy face, various thoughts flashing through his mind as he thought about how to escape.

He is now less than three hundred miles away from Tianyuan Fairy City, which is not far.

Those who want to follow him are afraid of encountering other troubles and do not plan to take action now.

So returning to Tianyuan Fairy City now is actually a good choice.

But Zhou Chun also knew that since the other party had set their sights on him, if he returned to Tianyuan Fairy City now, even if the other party did not show up to intercept him, they would definitely continue to stare at him.

But he doesn't have so much time to waste with the opponent and compete with him in patience.

"It seems like this is the only way!"

With a gleam of light in his eyes, Zhou Chun immediately put the golden-winged tiger back into the spirit beast bag. Then golden light emerged from his body, and he instantly turned into a golden rainbow light and flew away at an accelerated speed.

Zhou Chun, who used the secret technique of "Flowing Golden Rainbow", was able to fly even faster than a late Purple Mansion cultivator under normal circumstances.

As soon as he demonstrated his extreme speed, the person who was following him secretly could no longer hide.

There was a flash of silver light in the sky, and soon a young man in a silver robe appeared.

After the man appeared, he looked at the golden rainbow light in front of him with surprise, then sneered, and immediately made a seal with his hands. Silver-white lightning arcs jumped out of his body, and instantly turned into a silver thunderbolt and chased after the golden rainbow. Its speed was obviously faster than the golden rainbow light.
