Cultivating Immortals in Two Realms, I Possessed the Primordial Thunder Vine

Chapter 43 Golden Swallow Tower

Ultimately, this Foundation Establishment Pill was sold for 6,300 low-grade spirit stones, a price that far exceeded the prices of some Foundation Establishment stage items that were auctioned later.

The price was so high that even a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Xu Changjun was taken aback.

Next, three Foundation Establishment Pills were auctioned off, with a total value of over 21,000 spirit stones. It has to be said that the Bixia Sect can make a fortune just by refining pills.

The prices of the subsequent lots returned to normal, and the competition became less intense.

Soon, the corpse of the level-two demon beast, the Purple-Eyed Bull Demon, which Xu Changjun had been waiting for, finally appeared on the stage.

As a second-grade demon beast, its flesh and blood are highly nourishing and can be used in medicine to nourish the body. Its horns are also top-grade materials for refining weapons, and its hide can be used to make high-level defensive magic weapons. Overall, it has considerable value, which has attracted many competitors.

……

"This level-two demon beast, the Purple-Eyed Ox, was born north of Cloud Mist Mountain. It feeds on spiritual herbs and dew, and its flesh and blood are edible. Its horns can be used in medicine and for refining weapons. It is a rare and excellent specimen. The starting price for this auction is 3,500 low-grade spirit stones."

"Is the price a bit high?"

Xu Changjun frowned slightly upon hearing the price announced by the auctioneer.

The price of a typical level-two demon beast corpse is around two to three thousand. However, the price of this Purple-Eyed Ox corpse reached three thousand five spirit stones as soon as the auction started. After several rounds of bidding, the auction price will obviously far exceed the normal market price.

However, he couldn't go off the field to try and steal the prize; he could only wait and see how things unfolded.

As the auctioneer struck the gavel, the price of the Purple-Eyed Bull Demon immediately skyrocketed. From the very beginning, people eagerly placed bids, starting at three thousand five, three thousand six, and rising all the way to three thousand nine, four thousand...

The price only started to stabilize when it reached around four thousand spirit stones, and stopped skyrocketing. Only a few people were still bidding.

Moreover, the prices that continue to be offered have fluctuated much less.

Clearly, the people present were discerning; although influenced by the atmosphere of the auction, they weren't fools and knew when to stop.

Up to now, most of the people who are still willing to bid for the Purple-Eyed Bull Demon's corpse are doing so to make money, hoping to profit from the high prices. Naturally, they will also privately assess the value of the Purple-Eyed Bull Demon and whether there is enough profit margin before continuing to bid.

"Four thousand seven!"

Xu Changjun remained silent until the price stabilized, at which point he suddenly made his move, raising the price by a whopping 500 spirit stones in one go.

His sudden intervention left his opponents somewhat bewildered.

According to some people's calculations, although the Purple-Eyed Ox is a relatively rare level-two demon beast, it has no special uses, and its market value, even if sold in parts, is only around 5,500.

After deducting labor and channel fees, there's not much profit margin left at such a high price.

Although no one knew which fool had impulsively offered such an exorbitant price, the others had their own judgment and wouldn't continue to bid, so they had no choice but to give up.

Of course, the corpse of the level-two demon beast Purple-Eyed Ox fell into Xu Changjun's hands.

Compared to the business logic of others, Xu Changjun had his own purpose. He didn't care about profits; he just wanted to collect the three sacrificial animals. The price was still within his acceptable range.

Of course, if the price is too outrageous, he will not continue bidding.

Anyway, the cultivation world is vast and rich in resources. As long as you have enough resources, even if the number of level two demonic beasts is small, you can still get them if you want.

His purpose was different, and he was willing to pay a price, so it was expected that the Purple-Eyed Ox would fall into Xu Changjun's hands.

Having obtained what he wanted, Xu Changjun stopped bidding and simply watched the spectacle.

The items auctioned later were mostly high-quality items that could be used by Foundation Establishment cultivators, which broadened Xu Changjun's horizons.

The auction featured a wide variety of exquisite materials, elixirs, ores, magical artifacts, and even spirit beasts and demon servants, creating one mini-climax after another.

The Heaven and Earth Pavilion is a shrewd businessperson. They know how to proceed step by step, stirring up the atmosphere among the audience and attracting a large number of cultivators to compete for it.

"Second-grade Magnetic Lightning Arc Stone, Second-grade Meridian Nourishing Pill..."

To be honest, although he appeared indifferent on the surface, there were some items that even Xu Changjun found somewhat tempting.

As he watched the valuable items appearing at the auction, many of them were quite useful to him, but their prices were too high, so he could only watch from the sidelines.

Magnetic lightning arc stone possesses a certain amount of magnetic energy, which perfectly combines with the power of lightning, making it the best material for forging elemental magnetic magical artifacts.

As for the Grade Two Qi-Nourishing Pill, it comes from the Bixia Sect and is a top-grade and precious healing pill. It has miraculous effects on breaking through realms and protecting the heart meridian. Even if seriously injured, a single pill can keep a Foundation Establishment cultivator alive. The effect is excellent.

The auction of three items together was fiercely contested, with each set fetching over five thousand spirit stones. After some consideration, Xu Changjun ultimately decided to give up.

However, he did not come away empty-handed. In the end, he made a move and obtained several bottles of pills for purifying mana at the Foundation Establishment level.

……

After the auction ended, Xu Changjun did not leave Danxia City; he had his own reasons.

As a prosperous trading city, Danxia City has a much richer variety of goods coming and going than Yundong Lake. Xu Changjun plans to wait and see if he can manage to get the last of the three livestock before leaving.

The three sacrificial animals are the sacred ox, the sacred sheep, and the sacred pig.

Now only level two pig-type monsters remain!

Back at his temporary residence in Danxia City, Jin Yan Lou, Xu Changjun immediately posted a message: he was buying a second-grade boar-type demon beast, regardless of grade or bloodline, as long as the corpse was intact.

Alternatively, you can choose to sell clues such as the location of level 2 boar monsters. Once the information is verified, you will be generously rewarded!

The information has been released through Jin Yan Lou, but no response has been received in a short period of time.

After all, level two demonic beasts are usually regional overlords and are rarely seen. To hunt a level two demonic beast, it usually takes two or more Foundation Establishment stage cultivators to act at the same time.

A second-grade demon beast corpse is not difficult to obtain, but obtaining a specific demon beast corpse is somewhat difficult.

However, Xu Changjun didn't care. He hadn't expected to get an answer so quickly before issuing the task.

He has only just advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage; he has plenty of time to wait.

During this period, he settled down and lived in Danxia City.

Since there was no news for the time being, Xu Changjun did not intend to waste time, but instead began to try to continue refining the ball of Thunderfire Golden Lotus obtained from Yue Yuanzhong's storage bag.

With some spare money in hand, Xu Changjun enjoyed a comfortable life and rented a small courtyard in Danxia City as his usual residence.

Aside from occasionally going to Jin Yan Tower to check for news and reply, he spent the rest of his time in the courtyard, focusing on refining the essence of thunder, fire, and golden light.
