Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

Soon, everything was ready.

A regal woman in her thirties slowly walked onto the stage from behind the curtain.

Her figure was seductive, and she was enveloped in an ankle-length red palace dress.

The skirt was slit high to the thigh, revealing full, jade-like legs.

Most notably, her eyes were captivating enough to steal one’s soul.

Her nobility and flirtatious nature fused into a contrasting charm on her.

It was clear; she was a cultivator who had practiced the art of seduction.

She spoke slowly, “It’s an honor that I, Lin Meier, am the auctioneer this time. I’m also thankful for all the big brothers and sisters who are participating in this auction feast.”

As soon as she spoke, everyone’s attention was drawn to her.

Jiang Yuan also felt a surge of emotions in his heart.

“What a powerful, soul-stealing voice! Truly it is a great cultivator of the Divine Bridge Realm!” Jiang Yuan murmured to himself.

As he marveled, Lin Meier’s voice continued from the stage.

“Now, let the auction officially begin!”

As soon as her words fell, a maid holding a redwood tray walked slowly to the stage.

Lin Meier lifted the red cloth to reveal the treasure underneath.

“The first item for auction is a specialty of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect – the Soul-condensing Drink, ten portions in total, each portion containing three drops!”

“The auction will now begin. Those who bid the top ten prices will be able to win a portion of the Soul-condensing Drink!”

“The starting bid is six thousand low-grade spiritual stones, and each raise must not be less than one hundred low-grade spiritual stones!”

Her words fell.

Below, there were only whispers, but no one shouted out their bids.

Because people only needed to input their bids on the crystal screens in their hands, this also maximized the protection of the bidder’s personal privacy and minimized the possibility of killing for treasures.

After about ten breaths, Lin Meier spoke slowly, “The current tenth place bid is 8500 low-grade spiritual stones, which seems a bit low!”

“If no one surpasses this price, it will be finalized in ten breaths. Buying a portion of Soul-condensing Drink at this price would indeed be a steal!”

Jiang Yuan quietly watched the auction below, feeling nothing. For him, the Soul-condensing Drink had no effect.

After a while.

The final transaction price became the tenth price of 9900 low-grade spiritual stones.

Seeing this transaction price, Jiang Yuan immediately felt confident.

The people present had considerable purchasing power; the transaction price for his Bodhi fruit should not disappoint him.

At this time, Mu Qianru, who sat below, was carefully watching Jiang Yuan by the window, her eyes flashing with a strange light.

After a moment, she licked her red lips.

Jiang Yuan also glanced lightly at her.

With his powerful divine soul, he had long noticed the covert surveillance.

Since he entered the Treasure Pavilion, he found that Mu Qianru had been secretly watching him multiple times.

But he didn’t care to investigate why.

The only thing that mattered to him right now was to break through the realm.

Once he broke through the Spiritual Sea Realm, Mu Qianru would not pose a significant threat to him.

Soon, one after another, auction items were presented on stage, displayed in front of everyone.

The transaction prices started to rise steadily.

But none of these items moved Jiang Yuan in the slightest.

Until a longsword was placed on display on the stage.

Lin Meier picked up the longsword and said, “This is a dharma tool with six prohibitions, called the Yin-Yang Mother-Son Sword. The sword can be divided into nine, suitable for cultivators skilled in the art of mind control, and the starting price is 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones! Each increase cannot be less than 500 low-grade spiritual stones!”

Upon hearing Lin Meier’s introduction, Jiang Yuan was immediately interested.

He originally thought that the Yin-Yang Mother-Son Sword was a divine weapon, but he did not expect it to be a type of dharma tool.

Compared to divine weapons, dharma tools were more challenging to forge, their techniques were more devious, and their prices were much higher than those of divine weapons.

This item complemented his magnetic field supernatural power and could enrich his means of killing enemies.

Moreover, his divine soul was inherently powerful, making him extremely suitable for controlling objects with his mind to kill enemies.

With that in mind, Jiang Yuan quickly entered a bid price of 12,000 low-grade spiritual stones on the handheld crystal screen.

Lin Meier immediately said, “one esteemed guest has already bid 12,000 low-grade spiritual stones! If you’re interested, hurry up and place a bid, or this esteemed guest will take it soon.”

Following her cue, people below continued to raise their prices.

In the end, Jiang Yuan won the item only by raising his bid to 14,500 low-grade spiritual stones.

After a while, a maid carrying a sword box knocked on Jiang Yuan’s door.

“Come in!”

Following Jiang Yuan’s light voice.

The door was slowly pushed open, and the maid with the sword box came in front of Jiang Yuan.

“Young Master Jiang, this Yin-Yang Mother-Son Sword is what you bid for. Do you want to make the payment now or settle together after your Bodhi fruit is auctioned?”

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and instantly, 145 medium-grade spiritual stones appeared on the table.

When he came to the auction, Jiang Yuan had already exchanged a batch of medium-grade spiritual stones for bidding because if he used tens of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones, the trading process would be too troublesome.

The maid respectfully counted the spiritual stones on the table and then put them into the Heaven and Earth Bag.

“Young Master Jiang, the transaction is complete, so I’ll take my leave!”

She slowly left the room and closed the door.

Jiang Yuan wasn’t interested in paying attention to the auction below. The list of auction items had long been handed out to everyone.

So he just needed to wait for the five spirit fruits representing gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

As for the Yin-Yang Xuan jade, it was ranked 98th on the list, which was among the last few treasures for auction.

He opened the sword box, and the Yin-Yang Mother-Son Sword was immediately in view.
