Divine Source? What exactly is Divine Source?
Yang An said he had never heard of it at all.
Although those items were tempting, they were completely out of the question for a poor wretch like him.
"System, exchange it for something I can afford."
Yang An shouted in his heart.
I don't want to feel this kind of poverty for even a second longer.
"Low-grade Profound Sword Technique: Long Wind Sword Technique: 1000 Low-grade Spirit Stones"
Low-grade Xuan-level cultivation technique, Divine Flame Technique: 2000 low-grade spirit stones
Spirit Essence Pill: 2000 low-grade spirit stones
Xuan Yuan Pill: 2500 low-grade spirit stones
......”
Upon seeing this, Yang An's expression changed drastically.
It's not because these prices are too high.
Rather, it's because...
"System, I love you."
Yang An screamed wildly in his heart.
These prices are even more outrageous than cabbage prices!
What is the normal selling price of a low-grade Xuan-level sword technique?
Qingyan Auction House has never auctioned such an item before.
He only learned from his cheap old man that the neighboring Green Mountain City had once held an auction, which sold for a sky-high price of 150,000 low-grade spirit stones!
However, in the system, it only requires 1000 low-grade spirit stones to exchange for it!
If swordsmanship is like this, what about the martial arts techniques that a faction relies on for its inheritance?
Doubling it shouldn't be a problem.
There's a saying that talent determines your potential, but a good technique can raise it even higher!
Can an ordinary person who cultivates a Yellow-grade cultivation technique be compared to an ordinary person who cultivates a Profound-grade cultivation technique?
It's not difficult for someone who cultivates a profound-grade technique to kill someone who cultivates a yellow-grade technique.
Moreover, the cultivation speed of a Xuan-grade technique is faster and the spiritual power it gathers is stronger. Over time, it would be difficult for a force not to rise to power!
In the entire Qingyan City, perhaps only the city lord could have cultivated a Xuan-level cultivation technique.
If a Xuan-level cultivation technique were put up for auction, the families in Qingyan City would probably go bankrupt without hesitation.
Thinking about it, Yang An felt a sense of anticipation.
What? You're saying that if you have money, you're not afraid of not being able to buy cultivation techniques?
If other forces dare to sell, you have to dare to buy too.
This is a fantasy world where everyone values inheritance more than their own life. Stealing the inheritance of another's forces is a fight to the death!
You either need to rely on your qualifications to join another faction, or go out and try your luck to see if you can stumble upon the relics left by powerful figures, or you can only honestly buy them at the auction house.
Auction houses always investigate the details before auctioning martial arts techniques, so there's no need to worry. Safety and quality are guaranteed to a certain extent; it's just a bit pricey. But that's not a big deal. For the prosperity of the family, as long as they're not out of their minds, they'll generally choose to fight tooth and nail for it.
At worst, we can grow stronger in a few decades and then eliminate other forces, and the resources will come back.
It's just a matter of being poor for a few decades. Anyway, the lifespan of cultivators is generally long, so they can afford to wait.
As for the Spirit Essence Pill...
Yang An had also heard of this. It was a pill that could help a peak Qi Condensation Realm expert break through to the Spirit Origin Realm. Although it didn't guarantee a breakthrough, it could increase the probability of a breakthrough by about 50%.
What does 50% mean?
If you still can't break through even with a 50% increase in probability, then you shouldn't bother. Cultivation isn't for you, and living is just a waste of resources.
There are very few examples in the cultivation world of failing to break through realms using Spirit Essence Pills.
Even if it were true, it wouldn't be mentioned, because it would be too embarrassing for them.
Therefore, in the eyes of the general public, a Spirit Essence Pill represents a Spirit Essence Realm cultivator.
How many Spirit Origin Realm cultivators are there in Qingyan City?
Including his deceased father, there are only ten of them, known as the top ten strongest in Qingyan City.
However, with his father gone, there are now only nine cultivators at the Spirit Origin Realm.
With one more cultivator at the Spirit Origin Realm, there will be one more decision-maker.
Which family doesn't want to have more say?
While a single Spirit Essence Pill might not be enough to bankrupt these families, it would certainly be enough to make them bleed profusely.
After all, a powerhouse at the early stage of the Spirit Origin Realm is not enough to change the overall situation.
"Huh?"
Yang An noticed small red dots below the items available for exchange and then clicked on them.
"Long Wind Sword Technique: Created by the Foundation Establishment Realm expert, the Long Wind Swordsman. A single sword strike is as swift as the wind, killing instantly with a single blow."
Yang An looked at the introduction that appeared in front of him and understood.
"The system is finally being considerate for once."
Without a description and only the name, Yang An wouldn't recognize many of the items, let alone put them up for auction.
It's ridiculous to bring out rare and precious treasures but not recognize them yourself.
For example, Yang An had no idea what the Xuan Yuan Dan was.
"Xuan Yuan Pill: An essential elixir for cultivating the Xuan Yuan Gong, a high-grade Earth-level cultivation technique. It can help the user comprehend the Xuan Yuan Gong."
Oh, so it's a bundled sales arrangement.
Yang An immediately realized what was happening.
This is not common in the cultivation world. Many sects require certain items to cultivate their main techniques. Even if someone obtains the technique, without the necessary items, they need to consume a lot of worldly resources just to get started.
However, Yang An liked this very much, because only in this way could he earn more spirit stones!
Even more ambitious plans were slowly unfolding in Yang An's mind!
No one stipulates that auction houses can only auction items, right?
Yang An then checked the system again to learn more about the items within it.
Until I saw a familiar name.
"Foundation Building Material: Spirit Embryo - 800,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones"
Yang An sighed inwardly.
My cheap old man didn't die unjustly.
No matter how much he imagined it, he never expected that a Foundation Establishment spiritual item would be so precious.
Eight hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones!
One mid-grade spirit stone is equivalent to one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
This is still the exchange price given by the system.
All I can say is...
I missed out on a small goal.
"Father, don't worry, I will avenge you soon."
A strange light flickered in Yang An's eyes.
Given the value of this item, the unknown powerful figure didn't immediately eliminate him, suggesting he must have other plans.
Now, who knows where he might be waiting for him.
Previously, Yang An might have thought of simply waiting to die.
But now...
Yang An really hoped that the unknown powerful figure would develop a greedy heart.
My own spirit is still being kept with him!
If they escape, Yang An will be devastated.
However, at that moment, the system notification sounded in Yang An's mind again.
"Ding, detection indicates that the host has fully familiarized themselves with this system. A beginner's task is hereby issued."
"The highest transaction amount for a single item in the auction within one month is 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. The host will be rewarded with three beginner-level lottery draws."
"If the total auction amount reaches one million low-grade spirit stones within a month, the host will be rewarded with one intermediate-level lottery draw opportunity."
"If it is not completed within one month, the task will be cancelled without penalty."
