Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 68 System, Golden Thigh!

Chen Xiuxian placed the items on the table for a long time, but saw no movement. Knowing that it wouldn't happen anytime soon, he could only suppress his anxiety.

He thought for a moment and started listing the items he didn't need and searching for their prices.

Chen Xiuxian first looked at the price of white-grade equipment. Besides being worn to cover his body and looking good, white-grade equipment only provides some basic defensive attributes.

There aren't many listed in the auction house, and the prices are inflated—you can buy these things from NPCs in the game.

The prices listed on the auction house are artificially inflated, mainly to scam newcomers and players who are in a hurry to buy the items.

New players might fall for it at first, but now that more than three years have passed since the game started, everyone is a seasoned veteran.

Apart from a few well-off new players or "second-generation players" who find it too troublesome to just buy a few items at a premium in the auction house, no one else buys anything.

This has resulted in very few white-label items being listed at auction houses.

Chen Xiuxian had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​selling white-label clothing.

However, some materials and Tier 1 white-quality skills are selling quite well.

For example, the [Lock Picking (White)] item can sell for 2 spirit stones at a fixed price.

If it's a combat skill, then it'll cost even more!

Having combat skills in the early stages definitely makes fighting monsters more comfortable.

Chen Xiuxian put up all sorts of strange and unusual items, like "slaughtering" and "crowing," to sell.

Some materials sell even better.

For example, submerged wood and Ula grass.

Chen Xiuxian hung up the few remaining Red Fire Feathers (Green) from his crafting of the Rainbow Fire Fan (Blue). Each feather cost 1.6 spirit stones!

To his surprise, the finished [Rainbow Fire Fan (Blue)] was actually cheaper than the total price of 12 [Red Light Fire Feathers (Green)]!

The same goes for the [Grass Dragon (Blue)], the starting bid for the finished product is 28 spirit stones, which is more expensive than the [Rainbow Fire Fan (Blue)].

However, it is still cheaper than the total price of the [Ula Grass (Green)] required for refining.

However, Chen Xiuxian quickly figured it out: it was all about getting points!

If you want to advance your weapon crafting/forging skill to the intermediate level, crafting low-level items won't give you enough points. You'll have to rely on crafting/forging these Tier 3 magic weapons/equipment to level up!

Those weapon refiners would collect materials from the auction house, refine them into finished products, increase their skill level, and then list the finished products for sale at the auction house.

Magic items like the [Rainbow Fire Fan (Blue)] and [Grass Dragon (Blue)] are "viral products" and popular among players!

The "refining recipes" developed by players are not only useful but also look cool, and they have a high market retention rate!
Therefore, the price of the finished product is actually less than the total price of the materials, and this price difference is equivalent to the cost of leveling up a weapon refiner.

Chen Xiuxian took this opportunity to organize his backpack and inventory.

Sell ​​all of the following: [Hematite Concentrate (White)], [Hematite Ingot (White)], [Cold Iron (Green)], and [Azure Scale Serpent Skin (Green)].

Even something like "[Smallpox Treatment (Green)]" is posted here!
I don't want to learn this myself, but I'm sure some players will be interested in this vicious and disgusting spell.

If you were to hit this thing while fighting a player, although the damage wouldn't be significant, it would be enough to annoy him for days!

Combat skills are significantly more expensive than regular skills, while spells are even more expensive than combat skills.

If it's a cultivation technique, then it's even more expensive.

They're not available at auction houses; apparently, they're snapped up the moment they appear!
And those materials exchanged from the General's Treasury—I didn't expect them to be convertible into cash so quickly. I should be able to make a fortune in spirit stones!
Chen Xiuxian was even considering using his connections to resell another batch.

Oh right, Chen Xiuxian also searched for "keyword card"!
In the game, this thing exists in the form of a token.

Chen Xiuxian searched for the term "Rat (White)" and wow! Starting bid: 4.5 spirit stones!

So you're the most expensive one after all!
Chen Xiuxian thought for a moment, then decided not to put up a price rashly. Instead, he exited and went to the adjacent "forum" to search for related posts.

You know what, there are already quite a few related posts.

This is the game content released in version 2.12 after the 2.0 cataclysmic event.

These entries can compensate for/upgrade talent entries, and can be used not only on yourself, but also on your Taoist soldiers, demon soldiers, ghost soldiers, and followers!

Currently, no one has figured out how to upgrade player attributes, or perhaps someone has come up with a method but is unwilling to reveal it to the public.

However, for players using the "summoning" or "gang-up" strategies, they have already made some progress by experimenting with their minions.

Chen Xiuxian studied the matter briefly and felt he had gained a great deal.

The players are indeed daring to explore. — There are over a dozen posts with hundreds of replies detailing their failures, a truly alarming sight.

He loves gambling too much!
Many players gambled on a certain attribute being compatible with their follower, the Taoist Soldier, only to find it useless after fusion.

Of course, there are also those that turn out to be exceptional.

In short, it was very exciting!

There are even live-streaming gambling tactic entries that have been upgraded!
How the Wind-Riding Azure Wolf Demon Blade Soldiers were Forged

"Live stream tonight: Refining the Five Witches' Soldiers! All 150 will be refined. Don't miss it!"

"Top-tier Yellow Turban Warrior, Tier 3 Dharma Aspect Heaven and Earth, DM me if interested."

……

Chen Xiuxian searched for [Shadowy Creeper (Green)], and the starting bid was 14 spirit stones, which was more expensive than most second-tier magic treasures.

Chen Xiu thought about it for a moment and realized that he really didn't need this thing, so he put it up for 13 spirit stones.

I need to recoup my losses so I can buy more things!
The result was instant kills after hanging up!
An icon for a parcel lit up on each side and kept jumping around.

Chen Xiuxian clicked on it and saw, "Ding~ You have obtained 12.45 spirit stones..."

—The official handling fee is 5%.

Should this be considered a method of currency recovery?
……

The auction house can only be listed for a maximum of 3 days. If it doesn't sell within 3 days, we'll deduct a handling fee and mail the item back to you.

This is why many players choose to trade privately; if it's a top-tier magic item worth hundreds of spirit stones, the 5% transaction fee is quite painful.

When Chen Xiuxian went to bed the next night, he opened the flashing parcel icon and was immediately greeted with the joy of a bountiful harvest!

"Ding~ You have gained 22.33 taels of silver..."

"Ding~ You have gained 35.42 taels of silver..."

"Ding~ You have obtained 1.32 spirit stones..."

A long line of emails, all containing silver or spirit stones from the Treasure Pavilion.

In the end, I received less than 300 taels of silver and 20+ spirit stones, which, including the 13 from yesterday, amounted to more than 30 spirit stones.

Chen Xiuxian materialized the spirit stone and examined it. It was an oval sphere about three centimeters in size, dark green and not very translucent, looking like a piece of jade of average quality.

This is 1 unit/spirit stone; spirit stones with less than "1" would be even smaller.

Moreover, this thing will automatically fuse when it is less than 1 unit. When 0.3 spirit stones and 0.4 spirit stones come together, they will automatically fuse into 0.7 spirit stones.

This thing contains "Qi," which can be transformed into magical power and used for refining treasures, making pills, practicing spells, setting up formations, activating puppets, and so on.

According to some posts, some large cultivation sects also control some spirit stone mines.

However, there aren't many players who can join major sects right now, and few people have revealed the secrets behind it.

……

Now that Chen Xiuxian had money, he started buying [Green Submerged Wood] at auction houses.

Normally, you either have to find a way to buy it from someone else, such as a large family or an official institution; or you have to wait until the weather gets warmer next year and go to the Yin Sha Rift Valley to fight.

Then it takes forty-nine days to refine, which takes a lot of time.

But now I don't need to. I directly photographed 12 pieces of [green ebony].

We can now begin forging the [Ebony Sword (Blue)]!

Take out the sword diagram, prepare the materials, infuse it with magic power, and begin forging!
Let's get it ready this winter!

As expected, the system is my greatest asset!
People cultivate for a lifetime, over a hundred years, but still can't succeed, not even in forming their core.

Why should I be able to become an immortal and live a carefree life in the world?
The world is full of geniuses, their extraordinary adventures leaving people speechless.

But how many of them actually succeed in their spiritual practice?
According to player statistics, the number of people who achieved immortality in the official game history is just over two hundred, and the total number including those in unofficial history is just over four hundred.

Throughout history, among so many practitioners, only a tiny fraction have managed to attain enlightenment and become immortals.

What did I get extra?!
Looking at it now, this system is getting more and more amazing with each upgrade!

If I want to become an immortal, I absolutely have to rely on the system!
Behind me stand tens of millions of players!
