Cultivating Immortality from the Book of Life and Death

Chapter 384 Top-Grade Ghost Servant. (Third Update!)

Feng Guangchang, Mao Yanxin, Yuan Zhonghao, Jing Zhengjie...

Zheng Que nodded slightly and immediately memorized all the information about the four people.

"150,000 low-grade spirit stones!"

At this moment, Yuan Zhonghao from Taoli County spoke up again.

Perhaps because the price was too high, Feng Guangchang, Mao Yanxin, and Jing Zhengjie did not raise the price further, and the room fell silent for a moment.

On the stage, Tao Xiliang immediately raised his voice and shouted, "150,000 low-grade spirit stones for the first time!"

"150,000 low-grade spirit stones for the second time..."

"150,000 low-grade spirit stones for the third time!"

"make a deal!"

After the fourth item was sold, a female cultivator in colorful clothes immediately came down to complete the transaction. Faint sounds came from behind the stone wall, indicating that the fifth item was being prepared for the auction.

Looking at this scene, Zheng Que couldn't help but sigh. A low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill could actually sell for 150,000 low-grade spirit stones!

Moreover, the cultivators from other counties weren't unable to afford the price, but rather dared not to!

Otherwise, this low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill would probably be even more expensive.

In comparison, the inner core of a ghost creature, which can also be used for foundation building, costs less than a fraction of the price of a foundation building pill!
Lu Maohong toiled for the court for fifty years before finally getting a chance to establish his foundation... Now it seems the court has indeed been quite generous.

After all, even with 150,000 low-grade spirit stones, ordinary cultivators still cannot buy Foundation Establishment Pills!
Not long after, the Foundation Establishment Pill was delivered, and a female cultivator in colorful clothes walked out of the portal on the stone wall with light steps. She held a colorful silk ribbon in her hand, and the other end of the ribbon seemed to be tied to something.

A moment later, the female cultivator in colorful clothes stepped out of the stone wall, followed by a ghostly creature that was completely charred black, with a blurred face, only vaguely recognizable as human, and constantly emanating the smell of roasted meat!

This is a "burnt soul," formed from the corrupted soul of someone who died by burning. Its aura is that of the ninth level of the "Tongue-Pulling Hell."

Unlike the "Rouge Demon" from before, this "Scorched Soul" was directly pulled out by the female cultivator in colorful clothes from Crane Cry Tower, and it had no sealing or control methods on it.

Upon seeing this "burnt soul," Zheng Que immediately sat up straight. This was one of the ten ghost servants he had consigned for auction!

Three of them had reached the ninth level of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison] cultivation, while the others were at the eighth level.

Judging from the current state of Heming Tower, it seems they'll start the auction with those of higher cultivation levels...

At this moment, Tao Xiliang glanced at the "Scorched Soul" and, instead of introducing the ghost servant to everyone, nodded to the female cultivator in colorful clothes.

The female cultivator in colorful clothes immediately understood and began to control the "burnt soul" in front of her in front of everyone.

Soon, he successfully enslaved "Jiaohun" with magic. The whole process was smooth and successful. "Jiaohun" showed no intention of resisting the female cultivator in colorful clothes who only had the cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi Refining.

The semicircular hall was quiet, and many cultivators looked bewildered. Just as they were about to ask, Tao Xiliang summoned a ghost servant of the [Scissors Prison] from the soul-nourishing bag at his waist.

This [Scissors Prison] ghost servant only has half of its body in human form, while the other half is a blurry mass of flesh and blood. Its aura indicates that it has just entered the [Scissors Prison], and its ferocity is still somewhat lacking. This is clearly because it has been suppressed by the [Ghost Control Technique], and its strength is far inferior to that of other wandering ghosts of the same level.

Immediately afterwards, Tao Xiliang cast a spell, and the [Scissors Prison] ghost servant charged towards the auction item!

At the same moment, the female cultivator in colorful robes, at the seventh level of Qi Refining, also controlled "Scorched Soul," whose cultivation was only at the ninth level of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison], to retaliate. The next moment...

Boom boom boom boom…

The two ghost servants immediately engaged in a fierce battle in front of the numerous cultivators.

These two ghost servants, one being the [Scissors Prison] and the other the [Tongue-Pulling Prison], would normally have been the ghost servant of the [Scissors Prison] who instantly killed the ghost servant of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. However, at this moment, the ghost servant of the [Tongue-Pulling Prison], at the ninth level, unleashed a multitude of ghostly skills and yin arts, and for a time, it actually forced the ghost servant of the [Scissors Prison] to retreat steadily.

Boom boom boom...

Clang, clang, clang... The runes on the platform flickered, constantly releasing a semi-transparent barrier, clearly indicating that a defensive formation had been activated to confine the ghosts' battle within a certain range, preventing it from spreading and damaging the entire auction hall.

boom! ! !
After dozens of rounds, the [Scissors Prison] ghost servant that Tao Xiliang released was torn in two by the "Scorched Soul" of the ninth level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison], and dissipated into dense yin energy amidst wails.

The battle is over!

Upon witnessing this unbelievable scene, the entire hall fell into an eerie silence!
Many cultivators in the arena even stood up from their seats, mouths agape, their eyes fixed on the "Scorched Soul".

Fighting against opponents of a higher level!

Moreover, it was with the [Tongue-Pulling Prison] that they crossed a major realm and defeated the [Scissors Prison]!
Few people at the entire auction had ever seen a ghost servant of this quality!
At this point, seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Tao Xiliang finally spoke, saying, "As you all have seen."

"This is one of the ten top-quality ghost servants that our building has consigned for auction."

"This ghost servant possesses a total of ten innate abilities, ghost skills, and Yin techniques!"

"Moreover, this ghost servant is incredibly easy to control, far surpassing ordinary ghost servants. Even cultivators at the mid-stage or even early-stage Qi Refining level can control it!"

"Its only drawback is that it lacks intelligence."

"However, this is not a weakness of the Ghost Servant!"

"The real flaw is that the master is short of money!"

"After all, rare and precious materials for awakening the intelligence of ghost servants can be bought as long as there are enough spirit stones! But a ghost servant of this quality is something that can only be encountered by chance!"

"Alright, I'm sure you've all seen the strength of this ghost servant just now, so I don't need to say anything more."

"Starting bid: 10,000 low-grade spirit stones!"

"Each bid increase must be no less than one thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

This time, before Tao Xiliang had even finished speaking, the audience erupted in a frenzy, as if water were boiling oil!

"Fifteen thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Crane Cry Tower, truly remarkable! They actually managed to acquire a ghost servant of this quality... 20,000 low-grade spirit stones!"

"I'm bidding on only this one item today, worth 23,000 low-grade spirit stones. I hope you'll all be lenient!"

"Get out of here if you don't have money! Thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Thirty-four thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Forty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Seeing that the auction had only been going on for a short time, and that someone had already bid 40,000 low-grade spirit stones for the ghost servant he had consigned, Zheng Que was very satisfied.

At this moment, the three men from Hengshui County sitting next to him also made their bid: "Forty-five thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

The price had barely been announced when it was immediately surpassed by other cultivators: "Forty-eight thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

"Fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

Seeing this, Zheng Que was stunned. The "Rouge Demon" from the [Scissors Prison] had only sold for 46,000 low-grade spirit stones, but his own "Scorched Soul" from the [Tongue-Pulling Prison], a ninth-level demon, had actually sold for more than the "Rouge Demon"!

Just as Zheng Que was overjoyed, a clear voice suddenly came from Mu Xiangu's private room: "Fifty-one thousand spirit stones!"

"I'd like to see who dares to raise the price now!"
