Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

136: The opportunity has comeThe first auctioned item sold for 230,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, completely igniting the entire Auction.

Everyone was incredibly excited, and Lin Shiming even felt a little regretful that his Family hadn’t brought more Spirit Stones.

He remembered that at the Auction he attended over a decade ago, the first item only sold for 9,000 Spirit Stones; now, it was more than twenty times that amount.

Sure enough, the next moment, He Xuan took out a Spirit Talisman. This Spirit Talisman was only a High Grade Tier 2, but its name was extremely famous: the Substitute Talisman. It could block one fatal attack and teleport the user a hundred meters away!

Although it was only a hundred meters, for a Tier 2 Qi Refining Cultivator, it was an absolutely precious life-saving Divine Artifact.

Even many Foundation Establishment Cultivators began to be tempted. Although this Spirit Talisman was only Tier 2, its effect of teleporting a hundred meters away could be used by any Cultivator.

”A Tier 2 Substitute Talisman, starting bid is 10,000 Spirit Stones, each increase must not be less than 500 Spirit Stones!” He Xuan announced the Auction again.

”Fifteen thousand!”

”Twenty thousand!”

”Thirty thousand!”

For a time, the Qi Refining Cultivators and Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the front almost all started bidding continuously.

They argued with red faces, wishing they could just make the highest bid and take it.

Lin Shiming didn’t make a move; after buying the Azure Bee Blood-Piercing Needles, he only had over 100,000 Spirit Stones left. Including the Spirit Stones for the Foundation Establishment Pill auctioned by his Family, he only had over 300,000 Spirit Stones.

Beside him, Lin Houwei, Lin Houxuan, and Lin Shiyi were also incredibly surprised. This was their first time participating in such an Auction where items started at tens of thousands of Spirit Stones. They felt that even this second item could be considered the highlight of the highlights in Xing County.

Of course, their Lin Family probably wouldn’t bring it out.

Only a large Talisman crafting sect like the Spirit Talisman Sect could easily produce such items.

The Auction continued. Besides talismans, a large number of Spirit Beast cubs and Yao Beast eggs were also auctioned, which was unprecedented in previous Auctions.

The atmosphere of the entire Auction became more and more intense.

Finally, even High Grade Tier 3 Magical Artifacts and Talisman Treasures appeared, making the entire Auction exceptionally lively.

After two Late Stage Tier 3 treasures were auctioned, it was finally time for the Foundation Establishment Pill, which was the most anticipated item for Qi Refining Cultivators in this Auction.

First, Foundation Establishment Families and Qi Refining Cultivators would bid. There were a total of sixty Foundation Establishment Pills, but this time they were auctioned in pairs. This meant that although the starting bid was halved, in reality, with two pills as the starting bid, the starting price was the same as before.

”This time, Foundation Establishment Pills will be auctioned in pairs, starting at 50,000 Spirit Stones, with each increase not less than 1,000 Spirit Stones. Let the bidding begin!” As He Xuan spoke, the entire Auction erupted.

The starting price was halved, and there were a full sixty pills, meaning there were thirty opportunities.

This was unimaginable in previous Qingxuan Assemblys.

”Sixty thousand!”

”Seventy thousand!”

...”One hundred twenty thousand!”

This bid was made by Lin Shiming. For this first price, he directly added 50,000!

This caused many Qi Refining Cultivators and Foundation Establishment Cultivators to look at Lin Shiming. Some who had been there over a decade ago were also surprised by the terrifying speed of Lin Shiming’s cultivation Breakthrough.

Despite their surprise, the bidding speed did not slow down at all.

Especially the Family Cultivators from Qing Province, Xu Province, and Jin Province, who would rush to the border between Chu and Zhao after attending this Auction. At this moment, being able to Auction one more Foundation Establishment Pill meant one more hope for their Family!

”One hundred eighty thousand Spirit Stones!”

With the final bid of 180,000 Spirit Stones, the first batch of Foundation Establishment Pills was finally acquired by a Family from Qing Province, bringing the bidding to a close.

Lin Shiming did not make a move to bid. The prices for the first few batches and the last few batches would be very high. Since there were enough Foundation Establishment Pills this time, he naturally wanted to acquire them as cheaply as possible, and then he could Auction some later.

Finally, Lin Shiming made his move in the fifth batch, spending 150,000 Spirit Stones to acquire two Foundation Establishment Pills.

He still had over 100,000 Spirit Stones left, but he didn’t continue to bid.

Seventh Grand Uncle was not present this time, and buying too many might directly lead to problems.

After all, there would never be a shortage of Loose Cultivators willing to take risks, especially since the price of Foundation Establishment Pills had already exceeded that of ordinary Low Grade Tier 3 Magical Artifacts.

Lin Shiming also did not participate in the final Magic Treasure Auction, decisively leaving early. Just like his father’s experience, he didn’t leave early enough and was held up by the Li Family. If not for Xie An, his father might not have returned to Fangmu Mountain alive.

Lin Shiming led Lin Houwei and the others directly out of the Auction. However, at that moment, he felt the jade talisman in his Storage Pouch suddenly glow.

”Fellow Daoist, the Opportunity has arrived, at the west gate of the city!”

This jade talisman belonged to the Little Whiskered Cultivator who had previously sold the Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root. The latter had chosen a Low Grade Magical Artifact and left.

At that time, he had also asked Lin Shiming if he was a wood-attribute Cultivator, offering to give him an Opportunity.

He really hadn’t expected that this Little Whiskered Cultivator actually had an Opportunity to give.

Lin Shiming glanced at it and walked straight towards the east gate.

He had also applied a Seal Spell to the jade talisman with a jade box... And at this moment, at the west city gate, there was a small pavilion.

The short Little Whiskered Cultivator walked into the pavilion. The next moment, strangely, three or four Cultivators suddenly appeared in the pavilion.

Among them, two were Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and one was a young Cultivator in the Late Stage of Qi Refining.

The leader was a Blue-Robed Old Man, who couldn’t help but look at the Little Whiskered Cultivator:

”How is it? Did he take the bait?”

”I’ve already sent the message. If nothing goes wrong, he’ll be here soon!” The Little Whiskered Cultivator nodded affirmingly.

The few of them immediately rejoiced. A Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivator, and one from a remote place like Yun Province.

Most importantly, he carried a Medium Grade Tier 3 Magical Artifact and a Low Grade Tier 3 Magical Artifact. These were just the ones he openly used for exchange; who knew how many good things were in his Storage Pouch.

Moreover, he had participated in the Qingxuan Auction, so he might even have Foundation Establishment Pills.

Thinking of this timing, the few of them chuckled again.

They didn’t know how many such young Foundation Establishment Cultivators they had killed. They were richer than the average older generation of Cultivators, and each time they had a great harvest.

The Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root was obtained from a small Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivator.

”Kill him quickly! We still have to wait for the Yellow Rank Secret Realm to open!” Beside the Blue-Robed Old Man, a Middle-aged cultivator with large ears also spoke impatiently.

However, the next moment, the Little Whiskered Cultivator’s expression suddenly changed drastically.

”Lost contact!”

”What are you good for?!” The Blue-Robed Old Man immediately flew into a rage!

”Village Master, please calm your anger, I have another method!” The Little Whiskered Cultivator repeatedly begged for mercy and smiled apologetically.

Then he took out a spirit plate-like Magical Artifact. After a while, the spirit plate lit up with a flash of Spirit Light.

Clearly, he was sending a message to someone.

Soon, the Little Whiskered Cultivator also spoke joyfully:

”Village Master, that fat sheep went through the East City Gate!”

”Then hurry up and chase!” The Blue-Robed Old Man also waved his hand. The next moment, a Tier 3 spirit boat appeared, and the four of them boarded it, chasing towards the East City Gate.
