You Cultivate, I Farm

Three rare and unusual treasure items had made the numerous Golden Core Real People present feel that their journey had not been in vain, and their anticipation for the following auction items had increased several fold.

Eventually, these 10+ jin of Thunder Death Crystal were auctioned off to a late-stage Golden Core Cultivator who resided in the Thunder Fire Asterism Cave, with a final price of 90,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

“Fellow Daoists, the next treasure item up for auction is a Fifth-grade Talisman, named Xuan Yin Sword Talisman.”

As soon as the words fell, a Dark Talisman appeared in Lu Xuan’s hand.

The talisman, shaped like a sword tip, emitted a dark luster on its surface. Inside, one could perceive thousands of minute strands of Sword Qi roaming continuously, giving a chilling sensation when held in hand.

“The Xuan Yin Sword Talisman, a Fifth-grade Talisman, contains extremely toxic Xuan Yin Sword Qi, and is highly lethal in battle.”

…

“The next auction item is a Five Thunder Lotus, a high-rank Thunder Attribute Spirit Plant from the Thunder Fire Asterism Cave which I acquired by chance and have cultivated.”

“This Spirit Flower has a wide range of uses, capable of extracting a trace of Five Elements Origin Spirit Thunder, and can be used to craft high-rank Thunder Attribute Talismans, assist in cultivating Thunder Attribute Techniques, Divine Skills, and nourish Thunder-related Spirit Beasts.”

“The Taiyin Wooden Box, containing a trace of the Power of Taiyin, can heal, nourish, and strengthen the Soul Body, allowing the Soul Body to stay in it for a long time without dissipating.”

…

Underworld Spring Flower… Snow Barrier Ice Jade Lotus… True Evil Sword Charm… Red Sun Metal Essence…

One after another, rare and seldom seen treasure items appeared in front of everyone like lanterns at a festival.

The crowd, initially thrilled, gradually became numb, their attention completely captured by the treasure items.

They never expected that Lu Xuan’s private auction would be of such high quality.

Each auctioned item was no less than Fifth Rank, with many that were extremely rare and unusual.

This kept their enthusiasm at a heightened level, and every treasure item was sold for far more than the starting bid, allowing Lu Xuan to earn a considerable amount.

“Fellow Daoists, the auction is nearing its conclusion.”

“There are two final keynote treasure items left, and I hope they will satisfy you all,”

Lu Xuan said with a laugh.

Hearing his words, everyone present immediately perked up.

“Two keynote treasure items? Better than the Vajra Bodhi and Thunder Extreme Escape Talisman?”

With this thought, more than thirty Jindan Cultivators became eager for battle.

“Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds, Fifth Rank.”

“Though the rank isn’t very high, these seeds are extremely rare treasures within the Cultivation World.”

Lu Xuan introduced a Red Gold Lotus Seed that had appeared in his hand, its surface adorned with slowly shifting fine fire patterns, from which one could clearly perceive a Pure Yang aura even from a distance.

“Friend Lu, where do these seeds originate from? This is the first time I’ve heard of them,”

Hermit Yu Lin asked softly.

“The Pure Yang Golden Lotus was created after many years of experimentation with the Four-Grade Earth Fire Heart Lotus by me; it took great effort to cultivate it.” ṜÀΝỒꞖÈS

“It is extremely difficult to cultivate, and I only managed to obtain three seeds. I’ve used one myself, kept one for emergencies, and brought the last one here to benefit the fellow Daoists,”

Lu Xuan said unabashedly, completely forgetting that in his Gluttonous Insect Pouch, there were still more than thirty Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds stored away.

“The seed contains Pure Yang Power, which naturally counters demonic and evil entities. Taking it can prevent myriad evils and purify the body of nefarious energies. If taken over a long period, it might also beneficially affect Spiritual Sense,”

Lu Xuan explained the effects of the Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds. He wasn’t exactly certain about the improvement of Spiritual Sense, as it depended on prolonged consumption of the seeds, and he didn’t want to give an overly confident statement which would be difficult to explain later.

“Can ward off all evils? Purify the body of nefarious energies?”

Upon hearing this, the crowd burst into uproar.

Such a treasure was invaluable and rarely made it to the marketplace in the Cultivation World. Whenever it appeared, it would cause a frenzied scramble among Cultivators.

Already invaluable, the Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds were even more precious given the current invasion of evil demons.

Lu Xuan pressed his hands downward, and after the crowd quieted down, he began the auction:

“Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds, starting at forty thousand low-grade spirit stones, with each bid increment no less than two thousand low-grade spirit stones.”

“The auction begins!”

“Fifty thousand!”

“Sixty thousand!”

“Seventy thousand!”

A few breaths later, the auction price for the Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds had skyrocketed to eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

As time went on, the number of cultivators qualifying for entry became fewer and fewer, until in the end, only a handful of Golden Core Mid-to-Late Stage Cultivators with very substantial backgrounds were competing.

“Ninety thousand low-grade spirit stones.”

Zhang Jiuzong called out nonchalantly.

If what Lu Xuan had said was true, then these Red Gold Lotus Seeds were hard currency in the Cultivation World, and even for Nascent Soul True Monarchs, they were a fine treasure.

“Ninety-five thousand, Friend Zhang, today seems to be the day for a good competition over wealth.”

Ding Qingwen immediately followed suit.

“One hundred thousand.”

Qi Wuheng called out expressionlessly, stating the highest bid of the auction so far.

“One hundred and two thousand.”

Zhang Jiuzong did not hesitate and added two thousand directly.

Whether it was Qi Wuheng from Heavenly Star Cave or Ding Qingwen from the same Commerce Association, as soon as either of them bid, he immediately raised the bid by two thousand, appearing completely nonchalant.

“One hundred and fifteen thousand.”

In the end, when he called out this price, Qi Wuheng had no choice but to give up.

Although the Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds were precious, in the end, they were just a Fifth Rank Treasure, and the current price was already much overpriced. Continuing to compete would be uneconomical.

“Congratulations, Friend Zhang, on acquiring these Pure Yang Golden Lotus Seeds.”

Lu Xuan Laughed, speaking to Zhang Jiuzong.

“There’s one last treasure still.”

“This treasure is different from the previous ones, being a Sixth Grade Talisman, and can be considered Lu Mou’s hidden trump card.”

“I originally intended to use it for self-defense, but as you all know, I usually stay inside my cave abode and rarely go out. It might be better to exchange it for more spirit stones to purchase some spiritual medicines that can enhance my cultivation level.”

Lu Xuan’s expression carried a hint of self-mockery as he took out a silver-white talisman from his storage bag, under everyone’s watchful eyes.

The talisman was the size of a palm, resplendent in silver light, with a mark of thunder in the center. Surrounding it, thunder light and electric arcs flickered erratically, as though they could erupt with infinite thunder power at any moment,

“Little Five Thunder Talisman, a Sixth Grade Talisman, crafted by harnessing a large amount of pure Five Elements Thunder. Once activated, it can release thousands of Five Elements Thunder, dealing devastating damage to the target, capable of instantly killing a Golden Core Mid-Late Stage Cultivator.”

“Starting price is eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones, each increment not less than three thousand.”

“The auction starts!”

“A Sixth Grade Talisman! Even if placed in an auction held by the Commerce Association, it is still ranked among the top treasures!!”

Ding Qingwen leaned forward, staring intently at the Little Five Thunder Talisman in Lu Xuan’s hands.

“Exactly, and it’s a rare thunder-related talisman at that, truly a grand finale treasure.”

Zhang Jiuzong chimed in from the side.

The appearance of the Sixth Grade Minor Five Thunder Talisman actually caused a bizarre silence at the venue.

It seemed as if a storm was brewing, soon to break.
