Chapter 2374 Earning is faster than spending.
……
"Three hundred thousand!"
"crazy?!"
"...Who is it, wielding the Immortal Stone like dirt?"
"Young master, three hundred thousand, let's not raise the price any further." An old servant was sweating profusely, feeling that the immortal stones that the cultivator who raised the price were as if they had been blown in by a strong wind, and he did not hesitate at all when raising the price.
The young master's expression turned ashen, and he nodded silently.
That kind of aggressive pricing stunt, as if no matter how much they raise the price, others will immediately lower it, is too childish to deliberately raise prices. That would offend others and create your own karma. If you don't have the ability, just keep quiet.
Within three breaths.
It's settled.
Ximen Yazu took this item.
"Moo~" The big black ox looked at Chen Xun, whose eyes were filled with a slight confusion. It asked in confusion, "Moo?!"
"This is fucking..."
Chen Xun cursed at the big black ox, "Old ox, in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, my spiritual seal has increased by a million immortal stones. It's not as fast as it's spent."
He didn't exaggerate at all; in fact, he was a little understated, because the price should have increased by more than 1.2 million immortal stones.
The big black ox looked surprised for a moment, then nodded matter-of-factly. That's just how it is...
Chen Xun sighed.
If you see something useful or that you like, then buy it.
If nothing unexpected happens, the immortal stones earned by those cultivators who secretly acquired these rare treasures will likely flow back into their spiritual seals through various channels many years later, because both they and the Eternal Immortal Realm have an enormous business empire in the Immortal Realm.
……
"Eight Trigrams Celestial Crystal..."
"Two hundred thousand!"
"Twenty-three..."
……
"Three hundred thousand."
……
"Four hundred and twenty thousand!"
……
I'm...
Upon hearing this price, even the eyes of the various immortals widened slightly. What was going on...?
On the auction stage.
Even the auctioneers were taken aback by the price, exchanging silent glances, wondering if the financial resources were simply too overwhelming.
The cultivator who made the move from behind almost choked when he heard that his item had been auctioned for a high price of 420,000 immortal stones.
He quickly took out the Star Pivot.
"Father!"
"My son."
"Our family has struck it rich..."
"The Eight Trigrams Celestial Crystal has fetched a record price of 420,000 Immortal Stones!"
"What?! Good! Good! Good!"
"Father..."
The cultivator was so excited that he was almost in tears. "With these immortal stones, we can buy a large number of pills with special patterns at the Moon Gazing Pavilion, and even buy Golden Core Caves and so on. In the future, we can return to our clan as powerful beings!"
“My son… good, good, good.”
The father seemed equally excited, his eyes filled with tears, unable to form coherent sentences. No one knew how much injustice his family had suffered over the years; this magic stone was enough to change their entire life's path to immortality.
Although it was a scene of fatherly love and filial piety.
What's somewhat disheartening is that almost half of the renowned business organizations in the Immortal Realm, such as the Moon Gazing Pavilion and other weapon-refining pavilions, are owned by Chen Xun. It's likely that Chen Xun's spending will return to him in a few years.
"Yuqing Prefecture..."
"Five million immortal stones!"
……
"Millions of Immortal Stones!"
……
"Two million three hundred thousand fairy stones!"
The final transaction price of this item did not cause too much of a stir. Most cultivators were more concerned about this celestial artifact, because the auction had been held for so many sessions that the price of such an artifact was within everyone's expectations.
West Gate Private Seating.
Chen Xun had already started drinking tea; he wasn't interested in this item, and neither was Lao Niu, so they didn't take any pictures.
It’s half a month again.
Since the auction began over the past two weeks, the prices of some rare items have caused a stir among all parties, making many old monsters' eyelids twitch slightly. Fellow cultivators who can afford such outrageous prices must really have a lot of money behind them.
fairy stone...
Anyone who wants to buy this item will think twice. After all, everyone knows that even a True Immortal cannot ignore it. For many years, they have been sending their disciples to search for it, and they cannot afford to spend money like water.
Until the grand finale appears.
"Fellow Daoists—!"
The auctioneer, clad in a robe embroidered with rosy clouds, stood atop the Nine Heavens Spirit Platform. His voice suddenly rose, causing the celestial light in the hall to tremble. It was as if he were waking up the old monsters who had been resting with their eyes closed, telling them not to pretend to be calm and to hurry up and look at the goods!
"This item—is the grand finale of this auction!"
His voice was drawn out, each word striking the hearts of the cultivators like a drumbeat, carrying a profound allure and awe.
The next moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and only a wisp of pale golden light pierced through the void and flowed out from the ancient secret box.
Countless gazes converged at this moment, and even the immortals who sat on high platforms and already held high positions couldn't help but bow slightly and gaze at that radiance.
The auctioneer's voice then became low and solemn, as if reciting an ancient scripture:
"This thing is called—Mingdaosha."
He slowly raised his hand, pointing to the golden light floating in mid-air, like quicksand, and said:
"Legend has it that when heaven and earth were first created, the three thousand Great Daos had not yet taken shape. Only the chaotic flow transformed into a vast sea of sand, within which there were golden sands as vast as the stars in the sky, forming the immortal patterns of the Great Daos."
"Later, an unnamed Great Immortal Suigu used his supreme supernatural powers to seize a portion of it, refined it with heavenly thunder and fire for ninety thousand years, and imprinted it with his own Great Dao, thus creating this Inscribed Sand of the Dao!"
"It can enhance a cultivator's Dao essence, making its Dao patterns more perfect and profound, even—"
He paused, as if even he himself dared not easily utter the second half of the sentence, and lowered his voice to a murmur, "It can cause the Dao essence to generate Dao patterns, which are engraved within the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. From then on, the cultivator's Dao resonates with Heaven and Earth, and his understanding becomes deeper and his power becomes stronger."
Upon hearing this, the entire audience erupted in uproar!
Above the Star Pivot in the Nine Heavens, celestial light surged forth, disturbing even the ancient, sealed energy beneath the Eight Desolations.
Those powerful individuals who thought themselves to be calm and collected during the auction now had a burning desire in their eyes.
Seeing this, the auctioneer sighed inwardly, his tone growing increasingly distant:
“Mingdaosha is a rare find.”
"This thing is neither for refining weapons, nor for alchemy, nor for nurturing spirits—but rather points directly to the fundamental principles of the Great Dao."
"Those who obtain it can make up for deficiencies in the Dao, cultivate themselves, and increase their understanding of the universe—this item was sought but not obtained even by the Heavenly Evolution True Lord, one of the 'Nine Venerables of the Universe' in the past."
With a flick of his right sleeve, the golden sand instantly spread into a vast sea, its radiance flowing like fragments of the Great Dao floating in the void.
It seems that the rings of time, the river of fate, and the breath of all spirits are all captured within it.
"With this being offered today, it is the only one of its kind in this year's Myriad Realms Auction—fellow Daoists, if you can obtain it, your future cultivation path will surely lead you to the 'Realm of Dao Patterns,' surpassing all heavens and transcending countless ages!"
The sound grew louder, resonating through the heavens, and even causing the celestial array within the auction hall to tremble slightly.
"This item—starting price is thirty million immortal stones!"
He suddenly raised his hand, and the golden sand stirred up countless rays of immortal light in the void, like stars flowing and dazzling.
His tone rose abruptly amidst the interplay of light and shadow, his expression becoming incredibly fervent, as if he wanted to possess it entirely; it culminated in an almost heavenly shout.
"Fellow Daoists, have you ever seen a treasure that even the Dao itself would inscribe upon itself?!"
"Mingdao Sands—auction—begins—today!!"
Immediately, the various star systems fell silent for a moment, then erupted into a deafening clamor of discussion.
West Gate Private Seating.
Chen Xun remained calm and uttered indifferently, "How could this Dao Ancestor not know of any such thing as an ancient immortal fire that has refined this item for ninety thousand years? What a load of bull..."
"Moo?"
"Old Niu, don't listen to his bragging. Just raise the price and get this item."
"Moo?!"
Big Black Bull glared at him. "Why didn't you raise the price? You let me come now?"
"Old Niu, I still have a use for my immortal stones. You can come anytime. We must take this item."
Chen Xun looked intently at Sendai, his words devoid of any teasing, but rather carrying a serious tone reminiscent of the bond between brothers who don't need to discuss money.
