The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

Long Xuan naturally agreed to Qian Duoduo's request. He had already prepared the partial map, leaving the most crucial part, but now it seemed his preparation was redundant.

Led by a young maid, Long Xuan entered the venue and sat in the VIP seat marked number ten, waiting for the auction to start.

The auction venue was large enough to accommodate a thousand people. There were rows of seats in the front, and a large standing area in the back where many rogue cultivators watched the excitement, creating a noisy atmosphere.

Even though most of the people in the front seats had already entered, judging by their attire, those sitting there were undoubtedly wealthy. Compared to the back, it was much quieter here.

Seeing so many people had already entered, Long Xuan knew he was just in time for an auction that was about to begin.

However, because it was so soon, his map had no promotion. The real big spenders probably didn't have time to come.

But this was what Long Xuan was happy to see. If Qian Duoduo wanted to promote it for two months before auctioning it, he would have refused.

There were benefits to speed. Long Xuan was always cautious. Even if he made less money, he didn't want to add any more danger.

He was well aware of how tempting a fossil vein could be to a family.

A fossil vein could definitely incite a war.

Now, the highest cultivation level in the market was only at the peak of the Marrow Cleansing stage.

If the Qian commerce Association really promoted it for a few months, it's certain that many Gu Kings from the far west and even super forces from distant places would come.

He might earn more money then, but who would guarantee his safety? He wasn't foolish enough to think those Gu Kings would be deterred by the market's no-kill rule and leave him alone.

At that time, it wouldn't just be him. A big brawl among Gu Kings in the Far West market would be possible.

The no-kill rule in the Far West market meant nothing to them.

So, he was eager for the auction to be as quick as possible. There were no Gu cultivators in the Spirit Sea stage in the market now, so his safety was absolutely guaranteed.

Long Xuan didn't have to wait long. The VIP seats were not even full when the Qian commerce association couldn't wait to start the auction.

With the sound of a bell, the auction venue fell silent instantly. Qian Jinjin, dressed in a white dress, walked to the auction table and smiled slightly at the people below. Her stunning beauty left many people in a daze.

Long Xuan, glancing at that face, couldn't help but think of her as a fairy. In this world washed by spiritual power, it must be said that the beauties of this world far surpassed the stars of his previous life.

Not to mention her strong professional skills and eloquence, just standing there, today's auction wouldn't lack for revenue.

Many people showed surprise, not expecting her to be the auctioneer. Unless this auction had very special items, the eldest Miss Qian would never personally come on stage.

Many who were not well-informed didn't know what had happened, but outside, the place was already in an uproar. Small parts of the market were in turmoil, with messages flying out.

Even without any promotion, explosive news couldn't be controlled, and many strong individuals were already rushing over.

Therefore, Qian Jinjin didn't dare to delay. She skipped the lengthy introduction and went straight to introducing the first auction item.

"Everyone, this is the last auction item we just received. I'm sure you're all very interested."

Qian Jinjin waved to the back, and a maid with equally impressive looks brought a jade plate covered with a red cloth, making it impossible to see what it was.

Often, the unknown is most eye-catching. Covering it with a red cloth was enough to pique the interest of the people below.

"Alright, time is limited, so I won't keep you in suspense."

"This is a bottle of Spirit Gathering Pills refined by a mysterious alchemist. There are ten pills in total. Every Gu cultivator knows what Spirit Gathering Pills do, so I won't waste time explaining."

"The starting bid for this bottle of ten Spirit Gathering Pills is one hundred thousand spirit stones. All spirit stones must meet the average standard. The bidding starts now."

Qian Jinjin lifted the red cloth, and most people in the venue immediately started breathing heavily, their eyes turning red.

Most people present were Gu cultivators at the Spirit Gathering stage. Due to the thin spiritual power of this era, cultivators could only use the power of pills to break through, leading to an abundance of Gu cultivators at the peak of the Spirit Gathering stage.

Given this, the allure of the Spirit Gathering Pill was self-evident. This first auction item was enough to drive all the Gu cultivators present crazy.

Many Gu cultivators stuck at the peak of the Spirit Gathering stage for decades went completely mad. As soon as the bidding started, someone shouted, "I'll bid three hundred thousand spirit stones. Don't anyone try to outbid me!"

Long Xuan's heart trembled. The starting bid was one hundred thousand spirit stones, and it tripled instantly?

Was selling Spirit Gathering Pills really so profitable? Had he been too cautious before? If he had boldly sold Spirit Gathering Pills earlier, he might have already gathered the materials to refine the Divine Ice Flame.

What did his extreme caution get him? He had been overly cautious and was still at risk of being killed for his treasures.

While Long Xuan was lamenting in his heart, the price of the bottle of Spirit Gathering Pills quickly soared to one million spirit stones.

Each Spirit Gathering Pill was worth a hundred thousand spirit stones, an astronomical price. With this money, who knew how many ordinary Gu insects could be refined.

By this time, the bidding had slowed down. Many people showed extremely conflicted expressions, with sweat beading on their foreheads.

The fact that the Gu cultivators at the Spirit Gathering stage were the poorest group, all of them broke, led to a group of rogue cultivators pooling their money to raise the bid to one million spirit stones. Otherwise, the price might have gone up several more times.

The price a product could fetch was not determined by its intrinsic value but by how much money the buyers had.

For example, the fossil vein to be auctioned later could have a total value in the billions, but no force had that much liquid capital, so the price would naturally drop by hundreds of times. There was no way around it.

Therefore, a bottle of ten Spirit Gathering Pills at about one million spirit stones was already the limit.

Just as Qian Jinjin was about to strike the final blow with a small golden hammer, a rough voice came from outside.

"My Long family is offering one million one hundred thousand!"

The noise in the hall died down as a group of people filed in under everyone's gaze.

Seeing these people enter, Qian Jinjin's pupils contracted.

The seven major clans of the Far West had all arrived. How fast! Did they fly here?

Seeing the heads of several other trading companies entering with a large number of people, she was even more shocked.

The Qian commerce association had only moved in here in recent years and was far less established than the trading companies that had been here for a long time. The funds these companies could mobilize were considerable. It seemed today's auction would require a significant amount of capital.
