Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

208: Something happened to Shi YiThe Auction for the purple profound treasure jade sent the entire Auction house into a frenzy. It wasn’t just Foundation Establishment Cultivators; even Purple Mansion Cultivators were making bids.

After all, Purple Mansion Cultivators also have Families, Disciples, and descendants.

With each Purple Mansion Cultivator who spoke, the pressure on the Foundation Establishment Cultivators intensified. Except for direct Disciples of Sects, those Family Cultivators without background hesitated.

“4,000,000 spiritual stones!”

“4,200,000 spiritual stones!”

The price of the purple profound treasure jade continued to rise. At this moment, Lin Xian Zhi suddenly looked at Lin Shiming and handed him a Storage Pouch.

Inside the Storage Pouch were 2,000,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which, of course, also included the High-Grade Spirit Stones he had previously obtained.

Lin Xian Zhi’s action was naturally to exhaust the entire Family’s resources to purchase a Purple Mansion Treasure Jade for Lin Shiming.

It was also a declaration of his resolve, allowing Lin Shiming to bid freely.

However, as he took the Storage Pouch and before he could even start bidding, he found that the price of the purple profound treasure jade had already reached 6,000,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Ultimately, the purple profound treasure jade was sold for 7,800,000 spiritual stones, acquired by Wan Qing of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

It also set the highest price in this Auction.

As soon as this price was announced, many Cultivators felt incredibly insane. In the past, even the price of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid was not much different, but this time, the price sold had far exceeded that of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

Of course, this matter was also obvious. The Heavenly Demon Sect and the Corpse Refinement Sect had encroached upon parts of Zhao Country’s territory, drastically reducing Zhao Country’s resources. Moreover, in this major war, many Purple Mansion Families were reduced to Foundation Establishment Families, and many Foundation Establishment Families were reduced to Qi Refinement Families.

At this moment, there was no shortage of people selling off their Family assets to bid for Purple Mansion Treasure Jade.

However, Wan Qing was, after all, a Core Disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and his status was clearly not low.

After Wan Qing successfully bid, he immediately left the Auction hall and disappeared.

Accompanying him were several Foundation Establishment Cultivators and a Purple Mansion Elder from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. If the Purple Mansion Treasure Jade was not dealt with quickly, some Purple Mansion Loose Cultivators and even Purple Mansion Families might take risks if they waited until the end.

As Wan Qing and the others left, many other Cultivators also departed, most of whom were Late Foundation Establishment Stage or Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Cultivators, with a small number of Purple Mansion Cultivators.

However, Lin Shiming and Lin Xian Zhi remained at the Auction.

Although he disliked Wan Qing’s style, he also lacked the strength to harbor ill intentions.

It was better to stay at the Auction and see if there were any treasures.

The subsequent treasures were all Magical Treasures and Fourth-Order treasures, including even a Fourth-Order Artifact Refining Legacy. The value of the Legacy was no less than that of the purple profound treasure jade. Of course, even if Lin Shiming and the others coveted it, they couldn’t bid for it.

Finally, a Fourth-Order Medicinal Pill, the Purple Cloud Pill, appeared. Even Purple Mansion Cultivators could store and consume this pill to increase their cultivation.

The grand finale treasure was a Talisman Treasure of a Fifth-Order Magic Treasure. Even the Purple Mansion Cultivators of the three major Sects vied for it, and it ultimately fetched an astronomical price of 18,000,000.

When the Auction ended, Lin Shiming felt that the trip was well worth it. Not only did he bid for the wood spirit essence and the three yuan forging spirit flower, but he also witnessed an Auction worth tens of millions.

As soon as the Auction concluded, Lin Shiming and Lin Xian Zhi went to the stall area. At this moment, the Lin Family’s stall was still surprisingly popular.

Lin Yuzheng, following the Lin Family’s strategy, would give customers a Second-Order Low Grade or lower spiritual item for every Third-Order spiritual item sold.

Even though the discount wasn’t much, for the Loose Cultivators, any discount was considered a conscientious seller.

What’s more, in front of the Lin Family’s stall, there was a pot of mingxin tea. Cultivators who bought an item were invited to drink a cup of spirit tea. Although it wasn’t worth many spiritual stones, this unique promotion quickly became popular in the stall area.

Many stall owners began to imitate the Lin Family, giving away items and offering spirit tea.

However, by the time they realized it, the Lin Family had already seized the initiative.

With the Auction concluded, many remaining members of Foundation Establishment Families and Purple Mansion Families had already returned, and the flow of people had significantly decreased.

“Fifth Grandfather, as expected, you are amazing!” Lin Shiming saw Lin Yuzheng sell another Third-Order Low Grade Magical Artifact, took out a cup, poured some spirit tea, and offered it to Lin Yuzheng for him to drink.

“Family Head is too kind. This was inspired by the Family Head’s business model!” Lin Yuzheng took a sip of spirit tea, squinting his eyes with a joyful expression. However, he couldn’t help but praise Lin Shiming.

This model was quite well-established in Xing County. If the Lin Family didn’t have the opportunity to come to Nine Leaf City in the future, they could have offered even greater benefits with a future discount event and earned even more.

The other Lin Family Disciples also beamed with smiles at this moment. With the battle concluded, besides the physical and mental relaxation, everyone felt even more the importance of being a Family member.

If the Family wasn’t strong enough, the chances of dying on such a conscripted battlefield would be much higher. With this war between Zhao Country and Chu Country, who knows how many Loose Cultivators from the two immortal cultivation nations would be lost.

“Shiming, I bought some Spirit Beast cubs and some Spirit Beast eggs!” Lin Houyuan also walked over from the side, carrying two spirit beast pouches and a Spirit Beast bracelet.

Nine Leaf City belonged to the Spirit Beast Sect, and the Spirit Beast Sect’s Disciples were very proficient in cultivating and selling Spirit Beast cubs. The prices were much more favorable compared to within Qingxuan Sect’s territory.

“At that time, if the Family’s descendants have Spirit Beast talent, it can also increase a major combat power!”

“Indeed!” Lin Xian Zhi also nodded from the side. The Lin Family currently had too few Cultivators, but not a shortage of resources. With the Spirit Fish raised in the Green Lotus Pond, the income from Xing County Market was also increasing, and the Family’s influence in Qingyun Market was also growing, not to mention the ore veins in Lingnan County.

This was enough for talented Cultivators of the Lin Family to enjoy growing up with Spirit Beasts.

However, just then, a spiritual talisman transmission arrived directly in front of Lin Houyuan.

Lin Houyuan checked the spiritual talisman, and his expression changed in the next moment:

“Shiming, Seventh Grand Uncle, Shiyi is in trouble!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Shiming and Lin Xian Zhi’s expressions also changed. They instructed Lin Yuzheng to continue manning the stall, and then the three walked deeper into the stall area.

Soon, they found Lin Shiyi in front of a stall.

At this time, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in brocade clothes was holding Lin Shiyi’s hand.

Lin Shiyi struggled hard, but he couldn’t break free at all.

He was merely a Peak Qi Refinement Body Cultivator, while the latter was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and his body cultivation was clearly extraordinary.

“Fellow Daoist, what’s the meaning of holding my Family Cultivator’s hand?” Lin Shiming strode forward.

He flicked his hand there, and the brocade-clothed Cultivator’s hand felt a huge force, causing him to retreat several steps before he could stand firm.

The brocade-clothed Cultivator saw Lin Shiming and immediately became furious, then loudly declared:

“How dare you! Do you know who I am?”
