Chapter 481: The competition is fierce, the speed of making money is too fast
All cultivators know that spirit stones are absolutely indispensable and important materials for cultivation.
In this world with thin spiritual energy, the speed of cultivation with or without spiritual stones is very different.
However, due to the thin spiritual energy, there are very few spirit stones, and they are all in the hands of major immortal cultivation families, making it difficult for small and medium-sized families to come across them.
This results in a growing gap between the two sides, with the strong becoming stronger and the weak finding it more difficult to improve.
Now that someone was actually selling spirit stones, these cultivators were naturally overjoyed and even more enthusiastic than when they were auctioning elixirs and high-grade magic tools just now.
I just hope the price isn't too high, otherwise it might fall into the hands of those powerful people again.
Naturally, the major families don’t want to miss out. Who would complain about having too many resources for cultivation?
"We have prepared six copies of this lot."
Xia Yu held up a hand, waited for the crowd to quiet down, and then continued speaking.
"The first three lots are worth ten spirit stones each, the next two are worth fifty, and the last one is worth a hundred, so you can bid according to your needs."
This is also done to give some opportunities to small and medium-sized families.
Sure enough, after hearing this, all the major families focused their attention on the last three.
If they could win those one hundred spirit stones, the elite disciples would be able to quickly improve their cultivation!
"The first batch of spirit stones, a total of ten pieces, starts at twenty thousand taels of silver, and each increase in price must be no less than one thousand taels."
Upon hearing the price, many people were delighted. A spirit stone was only two thousand taels of silver, which was definitely not expensive.
If this is just the starting price, the final transaction price will definitely be much higher than this.
"Twenty-five thousand taels!"
"Twenty-seven thousand taels."
"Thirty thousand taels!"
The crowd immediately started to bid fiercely, and almost all of them were cultivators of the first level.
"Forty thousand taels!"
"Forty-one thousand taels."
Listening to the rising prices, Xiao Ying smiled with satisfaction.
In the end, these ten spirit stones were sold for 47,000 taels, and the prices of the next two were around the same, and they all fell into the hands of small and medium-sized families.
Those who got the photo were overjoyed, while those who didn’t were envious.
For these small and medium-sized families, fifty or sixty thousand taels is already a considerable sum.
Yu Qianli sighed, "After this auction, you can probably make tens of millions of taels."
The speed of making money is too fast, and the ability to make money is too powerful.
But I still can't envy it, because only Xiao Ying can earn this money.
Xiao Ying said, "What I paid is much more valuable than silver."
"That's true."
Yu Qianli nodded in agreement. After all, silver was readily available, and these items had remained unsold for hundreds of years.
As he spoke, Xia Yu had already started auctioning the first batch of fifty spirit stones, with the starting price being one hundred thousand taels.
This time, almost all the people bidding were cultivators of the second and third levels, and those of the first level voluntarily gave up the competition.
The final transaction price climbed to 228,000 taels, which was cheaper than the 10 yuan per copy.
The second batch of fifty spirit stones was sold for two hundred and thirty-three thousand taels.
One copy fell into the hands of the Nan family, and the other copy fell into the hands of Nangong Jingyan.
Finally, the competition for the one hundred spirit stones began. The starting price was as high as two hundred thousand taels. The bidding was so loud that it was even more crazy than before.
"Numbers 3, 7, 10, 14, and 19 on the second floor, and numbers 1, 4, 6, 9, 13, 16, and 18 on the third floor, are probably all ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators hiding their identities."
Listening to the bidding, Yu Qianli's face became solemn. He actually called out a series of room numbers in one breath, locking down the other party's identity.
Xiao Ying nodded in agreement: "When the top-grade magic weapon and these one hundred spirit stones were auctioned, these rooms all participated in the bidding."
Only those with extremely strong strength will participate in these two battles.
These room numbers also exclude the five major families of Yue Kingdom and Nangong Jingyan and others with public identities, so they appear even more suspicious.
Those who have hidden their identities at the ninth level of Qi Refining probably have no idea that these are all deliberately arranged by Xiao Ying to reveal their identities.
Furthermore, even if one could think of it, it would be impossible to remain indifferent in the face of these treasures.
"Twelve rooms." Xiao Ying smiled. "It seems that all the cultivators of the third kingdom who have reached the ninth level of Qi Refining have come."
According to the information Yu Qianli gave her, Jing Kingdom had the most cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining, as many as five, while Anlan Kingdom and Jingnu Kingdom had four each.
Moon Country also had four before, but now...
A strange look flashed in Xiao Ying's eyes. Even the people around him probably didn't know how many there were.
In the end, these one hundred spirit stones were sold for 514,000 taels, becoming the second highest price after the top-grade magic weapon!
Xiao Ying did not set the starting price arbitrarily, but referred to the prices in the world of immortal cultivation.
In the world of cultivating immortals, a primary elixir like the Longevity Pill or the Small Rejuvenating Pill only costs five or six low-grade spirit stones, while those of particularly high quality can cost up to ten.
A high-grade magic weapon costs only one or two hundred low-grade spirit stones. If it is a top-level magic weapon, it will be much more expensive, at least five hundred yuan or more.
After all, magic weapons are only used in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages. Cultivators at this level are generally not valued and are poor, so the prices of the things are naturally not that high.
These one hundred spirit stones were bought by the mysterious person in room nine on the third floor, and therefore attracted the special attention of Xiao Ying and the others.
After such a fierce bidding for spirit stones, Xia Yu auctioned off a few bottles of magic water to lighten the atmosphere.
These magical waters are the spiritual spring water in Xiao Ying’s fairy palace, but they have not been diluted. Whether used for healing the body or practicing, the effect is very good.
It costs only one thousand two taels per liter, which is really a bargain compared to other products.
A total of one hundred liters were sold this time, and almost all of them were bought by first-level monks or ordinary people, so it was not a wasted trip for everyone.
"The next item to be auctioned is..."
On the round stage, Xia Yu entered the next stage with great passion.
Hearing her sudden pause, everyone's appetite was piqued, and they intuitively felt that this was another rare treasure.
Xia Yu then raised his eyebrows and announced the answer loudly.
"Storage bag!"
"boom!"
The crowd immediately boiled over and burst into enthusiastic cheers.
Whether they were on the first, second or third floor, all the monks stretched their necks, wanting to find out what was going on.
It is no exaggeration to say that most cultivators have never even seen a storage bag. They did not expect to see it at an auction today, which made the trip worthwhile.
The Yu and Nan families, who had bought storage bags from Xiao Ying privately, showed some pride. They could buy privately, but these people could only bid.
Needless to say, the price of a private purchase is definitely much cheaper than the auction price.
The cultivator next to Xia Yu had already suspended the storage bag in the air, displaying it from the third layer first, and then the second and first layers.
Xia Yu also introduced: "There are three storage bags to be auctioned today."
"The first piece is about six feet long, wide, and high. The second piece is about ten feet long, wide, and high. The third piece is about ten and a half feet long, wide, and high."
It comes down to about ten cubic meters, thirty cubic meters and one hundred cubic meters.
"Let's bid on the first item now. The starting price is 10,000 taels of silver, and each bid must be increased by no less than 1,000 taels!"
