Cultivation Starts from Farming-Chapter 644 - 311: Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill Completed (Part 3)

Chapter 644: Chapter 311: Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill Completed (Part 3)

Successfully obtaining the Ten Thousand Tribulation Pill this time was undoubtedly a great joy for Xu Ping.

However, he also knew that the upcoming plan was even more dangerous. To make a move against a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of the early stage like Ban Jing could lead to eternal consequences with the slightest mishap.

With this thought, Xu Ping turned his palm, and Ban Jing’s ’Conceal Divine Jade Talisman’ appeared in his hand.

Though he hadn’t detected anything unusual about the talisman.

But it told him directly that there was definitely a problem with this talisman, perhaps it could reveal his exact location.

Under normal circumstances, if Xu Ping discovered this talisman to be suspicious, he would have destroyed it immediately to prevent future troubles.

But now, considering the plan with Hongyi, he actually needed to preserve this jade talisman well.

This was one of the keys to luring Ban Jing into the trap, and an important link in the entire plan’s success.

"However, the assault must wait until after the auction ends."

He and Hongyi agreed to make their move after the auction, as it was said that Ban Jing would also attend this auction.

"Next, I should attend the auction first and see if there are any other useful items."

"The only pity is that the Ice Crystal Heart Lotus and Xuanyin Grass have been used up." Xu Ping shook his head helplessly.

These two spiritual medicines, which he had ripened using his lifespan, had consumed a lot of effort.

Now that they had been used for exchange and alchemy, his bargaining chips were considerably lessened.

This meant that at the upcoming auction, should any truly precious treasures appear, he would probably have to be a mere spectator, unable to compete.

Of course, he could continue to ripen some spirit medicines.

But upon second thought, it seemed inappropriate.

He had already revealed enough wealth; to increase it further would only attract more covetous eyes, adding unnecessary variables.

"Forget it, this time at the auction, I will mainly observe, and at most bid for some third-tier Longevity Pills; it’s worth the trip." Xu Ping mused silently.

...

...

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, five days passed, and the eagerly awaited grand auction of the Pill City Alliance finally commenced.

During this period, the flow of people in Dan Yun City reached an unprecedented peak.

Cultivators from all corners surged continuously into the city, and the major inns were long since fully booked.

On this day, the sky over Dan Yun City was extraordinarily clear, without a cloud in sight, as if the heavens were also cheering for this grand event.

The auction venue was set in a massive palace in the center of Dan Yun City.

The palace was constructed entirely of high-grade spirit stones, towering several hundred feet high, with dozens of auction halls of varying sizes inside, categorized by cultivation level.

Just like Xu Ping, who, owing to the light of True Monarch Lan Ling, came to the third-floor box with her.

While the other cultivators from the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons were in the second-floor boxes.

Xu Ping stood in the box on the third floor, looking down through the glass.

The auction space was extremely spacious, accommodating over ten thousand people to watch simultaneously, but at this moment, it was already fully occupied, demonstrating the attractiveness of the Pill City Alliance’s auction.

...

Half an hour passed again.

Buzz!

A soft beam of light descended from the sky, enveloping the auction stage in front, turning night into day.

"Welcome, fellow Daoists, to the Pill City Alliance’s auction. Yours truly is Lin Yunfan, the host for this auction."

Accompanied by the pressure of a Nascent Soul level, a child-faced elder with brown hair appeared on the auction stage, smiling cheerfully.

He wore a long cyan robe, exuding a steady demeanor, his eyes bright with vigor. Despite his benevolent appearance, his every gesture displayed his extraordinary status and position.

’Indeed, the Pill City Alliance is rich and powerful, able to have a Nascent Soul True Monarch host the auction!’

Witnessing this scene, Xu Ping in the box secretly marveled.

No matter which sect in the Cultivation Realm, a Nascent Soul True Monarch is considered to be at the absolute higher-ups.

Their time is extremely precious and even large sects would not casually dispatch a Nascent Soul True Monarch for such routine tasks.

Yet, the Pill City Alliance could invite such a big figure to host the auction, showcasing its deep foundation.

"First, let me state the rules of this auction. Any behavior that threatens with divine sense, maliciously inflates prices, or secretly colludes—which affects the normal auction order—will be punished by ejection from the venue at the least and cultivation abolition at the most."

"Well, without further ado, the auction is officially starting."

With a flick of Lin Yunfan’s sleeve, the first auction item was brought up by a Foundation Establishment maid on a tray.

The auction officially commenced, invigorating all the cultivators present, who eagerly anticipated the various rare treasures to come.

It must be said.

The auction held by the Pill City Alliance indeed lived up to its reputation.

As the auction proceeded, various rare spirit medicines, magical treasures, and talismans appeared one after another, each of superior quality, causing the attending cultivators to bid fervently, with prices soaring higher and higher.

Xu Ping was not idle either, stepping in at the right moment to purchase four top-quality third-tier Longevity Pills.

Although he had already ingested a few, they were still effective, so he couldn’t miss the opportunity.

True Monarch Lan Ling saw his eagerness to buy Longevity Pills, and though she felt a bit puzzled, she didn’t question him further.

"The next auction item is the ’Lingquan Pearl.’"

Lin Yunfan’s voice echoed in the auction hall, instantly drawing the attention of all the cultivators.

As soon as the words fell.

Two lavishly dressed maids gracefully walked up the auction stage, holding an exquisite jade plate, on which lay a crystal-clear, fist-sized jade pearl.

This jade pearl’s surface shimmered with colorful lights, with what seemed to be clouds swirling inside, releasing bursts of pure spiritual qi that refreshed the mind.

With a gentle tap of his finger, Lin Yunfan lifted the jade pearl with a stream of spiritual power, suspending it in the best possible view for everyone.

Ensuring that every cultivator could clearly observe the quality of this auction item. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"This pearl is the essence formed after the eyes of the spiritual spring have dried up."

Lin Yunfan introduced in a calm tone, "If placed at a spirit vein node, it can enhance the spiritual qi of the cultivator’s abode. Naturally, if integrated into a new spiritual spring’s eye, it can also elevate the level of the spiritual spring’s eye."

"For any cultivator who values their cultivation environment, it is an invaluable treasure."
