Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"Two thousand spirit stones!"

Yu Changsheng turned his head and saw an old man suddenly offer a high price.

A Spirit Rabbit skull costs two thousand spirit stones?

Yu Changsheng assumed that the old man was also a cultivator who controlled spirits and might specifically need these materials, so he didn't raise the price further.

In the end, the old man also took the skull of the Spirit Rabbit.

This leaves only three items for auction.

If Yu Changsheng wants to pass this round, he must win at least two of them, which immediately increases the pressure on him.

Soon, the eighth item was finally revealed: a sword.

The woman introduced, "This is a second-tier supreme treasure-grade Cold Light Jade Sword, starting bid three thousand spirit stones!"

Many people held their breath when they saw the treasure appear.

It's astonishing that a second-tier auction item would appear in the first round of bidding.

Moreover, this is only the third to last item up for auction, so it seems that the next two auctions will both feature items of rank two or higher.

Yu Changsheng naturally had no interest in a second-tier magic weapon.

However, at this point, he had no room for error.

Although this magical artifact was of little use to him.

Yu Changsheng made several bids, and soon the price reached the five thousand spirit stones mark.

Many people looked troubled; this doubling was already the limit for some.

Upon seeing this, Yu Changsheng immediately shouted, "Eight thousand spirit stones!"

Such a price immediately dispelled the idea of ​​many people.

The price was much higher than they had expected. The old man gritted his teeth and gave up bidding.

In the end, he also took this precious sword.

The woman's smile widened; the fact that the Cold Light Jade Sword had fetched eight thousand spirit stones was a truly unexpected delight.

"The ninth treasure is named Ding Yunzhu, and it is a spirit pet!"

"This Ding Yunzhu doesn't have any fighting ability; his own strength is relatively weak."

"While not suited for combat, it's perfect as a pet."

"It is also at the level of a second-tier spirit beast, with a starting bid of five thousand spirit stones."

Upon hearing the price, many people immediately lost interest.

This thing is really not suitable for ordinary independent cultivators.

Almost no independent cultivator would spend their spirit stones on this.

Most people looked disappointed when they saw the auction item, and it seemed they weren't going to try to win it.

Seeing this, Yu Changsheng knew it was a good opportunity, so he directly offered six thousand spirit stones.

The best outcome would naturally be to advance to the next round with minimal effort.

However, the old man suddenly made a bid as well.

"Seven thousand spirit stones!"

Yu Changsheng glanced at the old man and raised the price again: eight thousand spirit stones!

Many of the independent cultivators were also slightly shocked when they saw the two of them; they couldn't believe that someone would offer such a high price for such a pet spirit beast.

The old man chuckled and said:

"No offense to you gentlemen. I just have a granddaughter whose birthday is coming up, and this spirit beast is a perfect gift for her."

"If this young man doesn't really need it, please kindly give it to me."

The woman cleared her throat and said, "Please make your bids quickly and refrain from talking."

Yu Changsheng laughed and said, "Oh? Isn't that a coincidence? I also have a friend whose granddaughter is having a birthday party, and I need to give her a suitable gift."

"I also really like this spirit beast."

"I'll offer nine thousand spirit stones!"

The old man's face immediately darkened, and he followed suit by raising the price.

The price quickly reached 20,000 spirit stones, which was far beyond the level of this type of second-tier spirit beast.

Many people around were also shocked; the price was simply not worth it.

The old man was also a little annoyed. He gritted his teeth and raised the price again.

"Twenty-one thousand spirit stones!"

Yu Changsheng persisted, chuckled, and said, "Fine, since you want it so badly, I'll give it to you."

"you!"

Upon hearing that Yu Changsheng actually didn't want it anymore, the old man was furious.

Twenty thousand spirit stones gone just like that; his heart was bleeding.

But the old man breathed a sigh of relief at the thought that he had finally acquired the auction item.

However, there was still one last item up for auction. The old man glanced at the few spirit stones left in his storage bag and suddenly felt a little flustered.

The woman said:

"The final item up for auction is a Foundation Establishment Pill with one rune!"

As this last item appeared, many people immediately showed expressions of disappointment.

Everyone here has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage or above, so the Foundation Establishment Pill is no longer of any use.

Although the quality of the One-Pattern Foundation Building Pill is much higher than that of the ordinary Foundation Building Pill.

But that's all; there's still nothing for them.

"This Foundation Establishment Pill was refined by Qiao Lin, a master alchemist from Sanling Town, and is of extremely high quality."

"Starting bid: 30,000 spirit stones."

Hearing this price made many people gasp in shock.

Perhaps for a cultivator who is eager to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, 30,000 spirit stones is something they can grit their teeth and take.

But for them, they simply wouldn't spend that money.

Upon hearing the price, the old man turned pale and began to tremble.

Upon seeing this, Yu Changsheng immediately offered, "Thirty-five thousand spirit stones."

Once Yu Changsheng made his bid, the others completely lost any desire to compete.

They all looked at each other, wondering if anyone could bid again.

Ultimately, no one was willing to make a bid, and Yu Changsheng obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Yu Changsheng successfully obtained two auction items and successfully passed this round.

The old man immediately slumped into his seat, motionless.

The woman said:

"Congratulations to everyone who passed this round of auction."

"The next round of auction will begin in one hour. The location and time of the second round of bidding are recorded in the talisman in your hand."

After Yu Changsheng left, he immediately went to meet up with Lu Erhu.

Yu Changsheng asked, "Hehe, what did you film?"

Lu Erhu shook his head and said, "Sigh, I just came here to join in the fun. I didn't take any pictures, so naturally I didn't get anything."

Yu Changsheng nodded; this was exactly what he had expected.

"Well, even though I didn't buy anything, it's still nice to look around."

In another corner.

The old man arrived there shakily and waited. Soon after, another man also came over.

He asked, "How did things go?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It failed."

"How could this happen? Didn't I tell you to try your best not to let him pass the first round?"

The old man immediately said urgently, "That person already has more spirit stones than me."

"I've already tried to raise the price as much as possible, but he still managed to outbid me with an even higher price. What can I do?"

"I've almost spent all the spirit stones I have."

"You have to give me the spirit stones we agreed on beforehand. I lost a lot of money this time because of the bidding."

The person opposite him sneered:

"You'll get the spirit stones we agreed on beforehand? Dream on! You didn't even get the job done, and you still want your share?"

The old man immediately became anxious and grabbed the man's sleeve, refusing to let him leave.

"No, I've lost everything this time. If you don't pay me, I'll tell Zhou Wangzhi about this."

"Let him know about your schemes and plots."

The man opposite him sneered, "Fine, go ahead and say it. If you don't want to live anymore, you can go ahead and say it. I want to see how long you can live after you tell everyone."

The man shoved the old man aside, snorted coldly, and left with his hands behind his back.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

The old man was left alone, kneeling on the ground in despair, sobbing softly.

And in that little shop.

Manager Wang was still looking at the goods brought by the newcomer, examining them carefully.

Then we received the message.

"Manager, let Zhou Wangzhi advance to the next round."

Shopkeeper Wang blew on the dust in his hand and shook his head, saying:

"Let him go. He was just trying it out anyway. Zhou Wangzhi has over ten million spirit stones. If he insists on advancing to the next round..."

"You couldn't stop him anyway. How many spirit stones did that guy spend?"

"Approximately tens of thousands of spirit stones."

Manager Wang nodded. "It's still within an acceptable range."

"Alright, let's not stop him anymore, otherwise we'll only lose our own spirit stones. How many spirit stones did you spend this time?"

"It also cost 30,000 spirit stones."

Manager Wang nodded to me, "It seems I really misjudged you before."

The subordinate asked in confusion, "What does the manager mean by this?"

"I initially thought those two were genuinely there to do business. But now it seems that their business acumen was just a cover!"

His subordinates were even more confused after hearing this.

"I don't understand why you say that, shopkeeper. Forgive my ignorance, but I really don't get it."

Manager Wang took a sip of tea and chuckled, "All merchants are extremely shrewd and will try to save money wherever possible."

"I will absolutely not waste a single penny."

"That Zhou Wangzhi actually spent a lot of money to buy two things that weren't even worth that much, just to advance to the next round."

"Is this the behavior of a businessman? I thought that by having a few people raise the price, Zhou Wangzhi would back down and give up in the first round."

"But now it seems that we've unexpectedly seen through his disguise."

"However, this also gives them an even greater opportunity to make a move."

"Keep an eye on Zhou Wangzhi and watch his movements. Report to me immediately once he leaves Sanling Town. Go."

Inside the auction hall.

After waiting a short while, Yu Changsheng moved on to the next round of the auction.

The quality of this second round of auctions has improved compared to the first round.

However, Yu Changsheng didn't think much of it either. After casually bidding on two items, he stopped paying attention to them.

The next four or five rounds were almost all the same.

The only thing that Yu Changsheng was concerned about was that some fourth-tier items finally started appearing in the fifth round.

However, given Yu Changsheng's current cultivation level, it would be difficult for him to use it.

However, after five rounds of auctions, the selection process finally came to an end, and the subsequent auction will be held in the core area in the center of the venue.

This auction will be open to all those who pass the selection process.

Lu Erhu also ran over and congratulated him:

"Congratulations, Mr. Zhou, on passing these five rounds of selection. You can finally enter the main hall."

Yu Changsheng waved his hand, "It's just throwing money around."

"However, after spending so many spirit stones to even get a glimpse inside, I wonder what treasures are hidden there?"

"It's worth it for so many people to spend so much money to go in and see it."

Yu Changsheng roughly estimated the number of people in the venue on that side; there were at least several dozen.

He only bid on two items in each round, yet he still spent hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

Needless to say, dozens of people together constitute a terrifying number.

Lu Erhu said, "Of course I won't disappoint you, sir. However, I have a favor to ask."

Yu Changsheng asked, "Oh? What is it?"

"Anyone who makes it to the final round can bring two people with them."

"Does Mr. Zhou have someone in mind?"

Yu Changsheng smiled bitterly and said, "So that's what it is. I came here with only one companion, and this person is unwilling to do anything like this."

"Both of these spots are unavailable. If you really want to come, then come with me."

Lu Erhu was overjoyed and quickly bowed to express his gratitude.

However, it was still said that:

"Mr. Zhou, you may not know this, but this spot is worth quite a few spirit stones outside. A single spot might even sell for several thousand spirit stones."

"Is that so?" Yu Changsheng was taken aback.

"Yes, after all, there are many people who don't have the financial means to enter the final round, but these people want to get in and take a look, so they naturally ask those who have already qualified to exchange for a spot."

Yu Changsheng nodded. "I hadn't thought of that. If you know anything about it, could you help me sell this spot?"

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Yu Changsheng waited there for a while, and soon saw Lu Erhu bring someone back.

It seems that this spot is quite popular.

"Mr. Zhou, the person has arrived. He intends to spend five thousand spirit stones to buy this spot. What do you think, Mr. Zhou?"

Yu Changsheng hadn't expected that this one spot would actually be worth such a high price.

I wonder if people who buy these spots can actually make their money back.

"Hehe, of course, no problem. We'll go next week."

The person opposite was a middle-aged man who was mostly a rogue cultivator, and his back was wrapped in cloth.

His clothes were very casual, and even had some holes.

With so many people willing to spend five thousand spirit stones to buy just one spot, Yu Changsheng really wondered what he was planning to auction off.

"My name is Jian Wuxing."

The man seemed to be a man of few words; he simply took the order, gave his name, and then stood aside without saying another word.

Yu Changsheng checked the time; the next round of the auction was about to begin.

Yu Changsheng said, "It's about time, let's go in."

Lu Erhu immediately felt relieved, and he specifically emphasized the price of the spot.

We just wanted to see Yu Changsheng's reaction, to see if he would regret it.

But to Lu Erhu's surprise, Yu Changsheng didn't seem to care at all about the 5,000 spirit stones required for each spot.

On the contrary, his indifference to doing so amazed Lu Erhu even more.

This Yu Changsheng is no ordinary person; he is certainly not just a simple businessman. (End of Chapter)
