Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 383 Low-Grade Foundation Establishment Pill. (Second Update!)

Mu Xiangu used Fu Qingge's voice, and her threatening tone was not as subtle as Feng Guangchang and Mao Yanxin's; it was downright blatant!

However, Tao Xiliang on the stage had immediately warned Feng Guangchang when he violated the rules of Heming Tower, but now, faced with Mu Xiangu's unbridled intimidation, he seemed not to have heard anything. He only glanced in the direction of the private room and then said calmly and casually, "Forty-six thousand low-grade spirit stones for the first time!"

"Forty-six thousand low-grade spirit stones, second time..."

Not only him, but Feng Guangchang himself has also stopped bidding and has no intention of continuing to raise the price or complaining about the unfair treatment by Heminglou.

Mao Yanxin, on the other hand, was tyrannical. At this moment, his brows were furrowed and his lips moved slightly. He wanted to raise the price several times, but considering the reputation of the Heavenly Artifact Sect, he did not dare to speak up.

"Forty-six thousand low-grade spirit stones, for the third time!"

"make a deal!"

Seeing that Mu Xiangu not only received no warning but also successfully bid for "Rouge Killer," and that no one in the audience objected to this favoritism, Zheng Que was slightly taken aback. It turned out that the rules of Crane Cry Tower only applied to rogue cultivators and imperial cultivators!
As for the legitimate disciples of the six major sects, there's no need to pay them any attention!

At this moment, the two female cultivators in colorful clothes on the stage worked together to lift the cage containing "Rouge Demon" and walked towards the private room where Mu Xiangu was.

Soon, "Rouge Demon" was sent to the private room where Mu Xiangu was.

At this moment, "Rouge Demon" was radiating yin energy, like a black mist spreading, and his violent intent was almost tangible. His eyes were fixed on Mu Xiangu, who had slapped him down.

Mu Xiangu casually glanced at "Rouge Demon" and then instructed the two female cultivators in colorful clothes who were waiting for her to pay the bill: "Leave her here for now, I still need to take some pictures."

"We'll settle the spirit stones after the auction ends."

Upon hearing this, the two female cultivators in colorful robes had no objections and respectfully bowed before taking their leave: "Yes!"

After they left, the door to the private room closed again.

Mu Xiangu turned her head and saw that "Rouge Demon" was staring at her intently. She smiled faintly and immediately raised her hand, tapping lightly on the chains that were locking "Rouge Demon".

Whoosh...

Several bursts of energy shot out instantly, shattering the chains binding "Rouge Demon".

With her hands and feet freed and the sealing power gone, a sinister smile full of malice appeared on "Rouge Demon's" beautiful face. A strong yin energy burst forth from her body and she charged directly at Mu Xiangu.

boom! !

The iron cage door was instantly blasted away by "Rouge Fiend," and fine runes rapidly appeared on the cage door, but they were all extinguished after a brief struggle.

However, just as "Rouge Demon" rushed in front of Mu Xiangu, a beautifully curved, pale and cold hand suddenly pressed down on her head. Terrifying Yin energy surged and raged like a raging storm, almost instantly engulfing her.

boom!
In the blink of an eye, the "Rouge Demon" who was just extremely violent was forced to kneel on the ground by Mu Xiangu with one hand.

He stared in disbelief at the female cultivator in the yellow robe and green skirt in front of him, desperately trying to get up, but he was like a small insect stuck in a spider web, unable to move at all!
"You...you are..."

"Rouge Demon" suddenly spoke in human language, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Before "Rouge Demon" could finish her sentence, Mu Xiangu coldly rebuked her: "You have some strength, but in front of this immortal, don't say a word!"

Upon hearing this, "Rouge Demon" bit her lip, seemingly somewhat unconvinced, but still remained silent.

At this moment, Mu Xiangu released her grip on the other party's hand, turned back to the platform below, and said casually, "You just stand here and wait for the auction to end, then come with me."

"Rouge Demon" nodded immediately.

※※※

At this moment, the fourth item has been brought to the stage on a gilded lacquer tray by a female nun in colorful clothes.

This is an exquisite wooden box with lacquer and gold-inlaid carvings depicting bats falling from the sky. Four talismans are affixed to it, suggesting that the contents inside are very important and require extremely meticulous protection and preservation.

Tao Xiliang looked around and announced loudly, "The fourth item is a low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill!" "I don't need to elaborate on the uses of the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"The starting bid is 20,000 low-grade spirit stones, and each subsequent bid must be at least 1,000 low-grade spirit stones!"

Foundation Building Pill...

And it's only of inferior quality...

Zheng Que immediately lost interest, but the three men from Hengshui County next to him immediately perked up.

The leading old cultivator immediately shouted, "Twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

As soon as he finished speaking, other cultivators immediately followed suit and offered: "Twenty-three thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Twenty-five thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"I'll offer 30,000 low-grade spirit stones..."

Although the starting price of this low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill was the same as that of the "Rouge Demon" pill, there were significantly more cultivators bidding for the Foundation Establishment Pill than for the "Rouge Demon" pill.

Before long, the price was raised to nearly 50,000 low-grade spirit stones!

At this moment, Feng Guangchang also began to bid: "Fifty-five thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Mao Yanxin also joined the battle: "Sixty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

A young cultivator in fine clothes, who had remained silent throughout and was also sitting in the first row, also made a bid: "Seventy thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Another cultivator, sitting in a corner at the back, wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat even indoors, said in a low voice, "Seventy-five thousand!"

The three people from Hengshui County originally wanted to raise the price further, but they quickly hesitated, seemingly worried about something, and gave up the bidding.

At the same time, most of the other cultivators who had just participated in the auction also fell silent.

Soon, only Feng Guangchang, Mao Yanxin, the young cultivator in fine clothes, and the cultivator in a straw raincoat remained in the semi-circular hall, bidding against each other...

"Eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Eighty-three thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Eighty-eight thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Ninety thousand..."

Seeing this, Zheng Que immediately asked the three men from Hengshui County beside him, "Gentlemen, are you running out of spirit stones?"

Upon hearing this, the three from Hengshui County all smiled bitterly. The leading old cultivator sighed and transmitted his voice, "Although Hengshui County is just a small county, it shouldn't be so poor that we can't even come up with a few hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones."

"The four people bidding now, Feng Guangchang, Mao Yanxin, and Yuan Zhonghao, the young cultivator in fine clothes in the first row, are all Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"Moreover, Feng Guangchang is the chief alchemist of Dongcen County; Mao Yanxin is the chief retainer of the Fengmu County lord; and Yuan Zhonghao is the direct grand-nephew of the Taoli County lord..."

"These three counties are the top three counties under the jurisdiction of the prefecture city for many years."

"Not to mention that all the taxes we escort from Hengshui County have to pass through the areas of these three counties, we can't afford the retaliation from these three people afterward."

"As for the cultivator sitting in the back wearing a straw hat and raincoat, his name is Jing Zhengjie. Although he is just a rogue cultivator, he is a disciple of Ancestor Shiqi."

"Ancestor Shiqi is a Core Formation stage cultivator!"

"These four are people that Hengshui County cannot afford to offend..."
