Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 469: Chapter 227: Gifts Prepared for Senior Sisters

”Foundation Establishment Pills... so many!”

The old man in the black robe instinctively widened his eyes, ”Fellow Daoist, may I have a look?”

Ji Yuan gently waved his hand, and two jade bottles opened. Instantly, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire room, and the old man in the black robe only took a light sniff.

The fatigue of the entire day was immediately swept away.

Ji Yuan chuckled and closed the lids again.

”How are they?”

”The quality is certainly not a problem.” The old man in the black robe, as the auction house’s ”veteran appraiser,” had no difficulty appraising Foundation Establishment Pills, a common item at auctions, ”But fellow Daoist, are you sure you want to sell all of these?”

”I’m sure.”

”Fellow Daoist is generous.” The old man in the black robe gave him a thumbs up, ”A total of 8 Foundation Establishment Pills, including 6 two-striped Foundation Establishment Pills and 2 one-striped Foundation Establishment Pills.”

”No problem, right, fellow Daoist?”

”No problem.”

Ji Yuan agreed, and the old man in the black robe took all 8 Foundation Establishment Pills from the jade bottles in front of him, stored them in a specially made jade box, and then took out a jade token from a storage bag.

”This is the receipt token. After the auction ends, fellow Daoist can use this jade token to collect Spirit Stones from our auction house, so be sure to keep it safe.”

The old man in the black robe handed it over with both hands.

The jade token was engraved with ”79,” along with some special patterns, even the aura was different from usual.

This must be the auction house’s anti-counterfeiting mark.

Ji Yuan took it, carefully placing it back into his storage bag, and then took out some Tier Three elixirs and various Demon Beast immortal materials from his storage bag.

”Fellow Daoist, take a look at these, is there anything suitable for auction?”

The old man in the black robe naturally got up immediately, squatting beside these immortal materials to examine them closely.

After a while, he gave his answer.

Two bottles of Tier Three elixirs, a poison sac from a Tier Three Demon Beast poison lizard, and a horn from a Tier Three Demon Beast solitary-horned rhino are items that can be auctioned.

The remaining ones cannot be auctioned, but the auction house is also willing to buy them.

Since they were willing to buy, Ji Yuan naturally sold them all off in one go.

The auction had not yet begun, yet Ji Yuan had already earned 890 mid-grade Spirit Stones.

As for what’s left, there was nothing else he wanted to sell.

It’s not that he had nothing good left. On the contrary, he had too many good things on him and couldn’t bear to take them out to sell.

Such as the 6 Talisman Treasures, 2 Celestial Thunder Seeds, and the Magical Treasure, the Heavenly Net.

Additionally, the 3 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk bestowed by the Water Dragon Sect earlier.

Plus various Spiritual Artifacts.

There was even a Divine Soul Technique, something nearly nonexistent on the Cangluo Continent.

It’s a pity he didn’t dare to take them out to sell, but thinking about what he had should be enough, even if he spent all the Foundation Establishment Pills he had.

When he returned, he would have to cultivate and develop well again.

At this thought, Ji Yuan thought of the [Spirit Vein].

”I don’t know if fellow Daoist would be interested in attending the auction ten days from now. If you have the intention, this is the admission ticket to the auction. Because the items you are auctioning with us are priced over 5000 mid-grade Spirit Stones, you can then enter the second-floor private room.”

The black-robed Zhenren smiled and handed over another jade token.

to get to the second floor, that’s not cheap at all.

Ji Yuan naturally accepted it, participating in the auction from the second floor would certainly be much safer. If he were to sit in the first-floor hall... he wouldn’t even dare to call out prices loudly.

”Thank you very much, fellow Daoist, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first.”

Ji Yuan chuckled and cupped his hands in salutation.

”Please, fellow Daoist.”

The old man in the black robe stood up to send him off, only retracting his smile after Ji Yuan left the room and he closed the door.

He returned to his original position, took a sip of Spirit Tea, then stroked his beard in thought.

’Listening to this man’s accent, he should have come from the south of Water, and he can auction so many Foundation Establishment Pills... Most likely, he comes from Medicine King Valley.’

’Yet, if he’s a cultivator from Medicine King Valley, why come all the way to Lanshan City for an auction?’

’There is most likely only one reason left, the source of these Foundation Establishment Pills is probably not very legitimate.’

But none of that matters, as far as their auction house is concerned, they do not concern themselves with these matters; as long as you bring in good stuff, then... sell it!

Whose money isn’t money, could it be that you’d dare to come asking for compensation from our auction house?

If you dare, the Spirit Control Sect and Corpse Transporting Mountain will let you know what it means to be the ”Twin Overlords North of Water”!

...

Now, after Ji Yuan left this auction house, he wandered around the city for a long time, ensuring there was no tail before returning to his lodging.

He returned, popped a Tri-colored Spirit Egg, cultivated for a short while, and dawn began to break.

Reverting to his original appearance, he stretched lazily as he got out of bed, only to find Ning Shanshan waiting outside.

”Senior, where shall we go today?”

Today, Ning Shanshan did not wear her hair down or keep her head low as she did yesterday.

Instead, she tied her hair into a ponytail, boldly revealing her... disguised appearance; however, her disguise was much simpler, she blackened her face, thickened her eyebrows, and used something to dot some freckles on her face.

She looked much more ordinary, but her smile was very sunny.

”Today we’ll just wander around for a bit.”

Ji Yuan smiled, perhaps he was in a good mood because of the windfall, or maybe it was the anticipation of obtaining something to upgrade his property, or perhaps he was infected by Ning Shanshan’s cheerful nature; in any case, he was feeling much better.

”Alright, senior, let me tell you, when it comes to familiarity with Lanshan City, I claim to be second, and no one dares claim to be first!”
