Chapter 241 Four Seasons Fruit Tree

The two stared at each other.

Look at me.

I’m looking at you.

A glance flickered, and a sense of tension filled his heart.

One had a detached gaze and an expressionless face.

After a long while, Xu Changqing finally spoke, “I need to think about this matter first, especially to talk to that friend who does alchemy.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Peng shrank back, sat down in his chair again, and nodded with a smile, saying, “Of course.”

“Then… these two kinds of top-grade pills?” Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow.

Sun Peng immediately said, “I can buy all of the Laozhuang Pills (no more than 50 pills) and Jiling Pills (no more than 20 pills) on behalf of the Sun family.”

If the quantity is too large, it can be placed at Changqing Wine Shop and sold together with the wine.

Xu Changqing thought for a moment and said, “60 top-grade Labor Strengthening Pills and 30 top-grade Foundation Spirit Pills.”

In fact, there are a total of 120 pills in the premium Laozhuang Pill.

As for the top-grade Foundation Pills, there are 70 of them.

It was all made by me when I was bored and just wanted to pass the time.

Sun Peng took out 14 mid-grade spirit stones and said quite sincerely, “As I just mentioned, our Sun family can only take a maximum of 50 Labor Strengthening Pills and 20 Foundation Spirit Pills. The rest can only be placed with Changqing Wine Shop for you.”

Xu Changqing took the spirit stones, put them into the emerald gourd, and nodded slightly: “Alright, try selling the rest.”

After much thought, Sun Peng couldn’t help but suggest again: “Fellow Daoist Cai, I’ll say it again: the market for rogue cultivators is too small for your immortal sect disciples. If you really want to develop, especially to make a lot of money, you should go and take a look at Xuanxin City.”

“Hmm,” Xu Changqing responded noncommittally.

There is another reason why I didn’t agree to Sun Peng’s request right now.

If I remember correctly, Senior Brother Chu knows the son of the city lord of Xuanxin City, and their relationship seems to be quite good.

Although the Long family is one of the three major families there, its influence and other aspects are definitely much weaker compared to the son of the city lord.

Therefore, Xu Changqing planned to ask Senior Brother Chu after returning home, and then find some time to go to Xuanxin City to investigate before considering whether to cooperate with the Sun family and the Long family.

A wise bird knows to choose its tree to perch on; it can’t hang itself on one tree.

The reason we chose the Sun family in the first place was because they were obedient.

Now, one can clearly sense the other party’s ever-growing ambition.

The two didn’t talk much after that and soon parted ways.

Xu Changqing headed straight for the auction house with the spirit stones.

Compared to trading houses, auction houses offer more exotic items and higher quality goods.

Since I’m not going back until tomorrow anyway, I might as well wander around and take a look.

In the evening, we’ll go to the second floor of the Xiangge Pavilion for some fun.

Soon, Xu Changqing entered the auction house.

There are two auction sessions in total.

They are afternoon and evening, respectively.

The afternoon selection was plentiful, but lacked novelty.

At night, the number of participants is the largest, and the items are also the rarest.

“This item is called ‘Long-lasting Soft Sleeves,’ and it is a six-patterned spiritual artifact discovered in Huang Yuanhua’s cave.”

“Although it’s damaged, it can still be used after some repairs.”

“Starting bid: 100 mid-grade spirit stones; each bid must be at least 20 mid-grade spirit stones!”

As soon as Xu Changqing sat down, he saw a new item being brought out for auction.

It looks like a pair of long sleeves as thin as cicada wings.

Woven from millennia-old silkworm silk, its surface shimmers with a pale blue halo, and the cuffs are adorned with silver tassels.

There are three basic effects:

Effect 1: By waving the soft sleeves, the enemy’s limbs are bound, restricting the target’s movement.

Effect 2: By extending the soft sleeves, one can grasp small objects within a range of three zhang (approximately 10 meters).

Effect 3: The soft sleeves are quickly waved to form an air barrier that can block low-level spells.

Two basic spirit runes: Entwining Silk Rune and Qi Control Rune.

Because it is a non-attribute spiritual artifact, anyone can use it.

It is mainly suitable for cultivators between the Foundation Establishment stage and the Golden Core stage.

As is well known, the quality of a spirit weapon is judged by the number of spirit patterns it contains.

1 to 3 patterns indicate a low-grade spiritual weapon.

A weapon with 4 to 6 patterns is considered a high-grade spiritual weapon.

A weapon with 7 to 9 patterns is considered a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Items with 9 or more patterns are called Super Grade Spiritual Artifacts.

Superior-grade spiritual artifacts with 9 or more runes can even rival low-grade magical artifacts.

Xu Changqing was not interested in the long, soft-sleeved robe, so he did not bid.

In fact, there are quite a few independent cultivators who share his thoughts.

Since it’s a non-attribute spiritual weapon, its effects are definitely average.

Therefore, it wasn’t very appealing.

It was eventually bought by a masked female cultivator for 200 mid-grade spirit stones.

The next item up for auction caught Xu Changqing’s eye.

“This lot is called the Four Seasons Fruit Tree”.

“The spring fruit is called Mulin fruit. It can be used to make healing pills. When crushed and mixed into the soil, it can also promote the sprouting of new buds in ordinary spiritual plants.”

“Summer is the Fire Flame Fruit, which can be used to refine pills, and after consumption, it can slowly increase the user’s fire spirit power.”

“Autumn is the season of the Golden Wind Fruit. Its juice can be used to forge weapons and refine spiritual artifacts, giving them a slight cutting attribute. Consuming it can enhance the toughness of muscles and bones.”

“In winter, it is a fruit that is covered in frost. After taking it, it can resist the invasion of cold for three hours. When crushed and applied to wounds, it can also temporarily numb the pain.”

Four seasons, four different types of fruit.

This item attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was put up for auction.

Many Lingnong even came specifically for it.

However, this thing is not cheap.

“Starting bid: 200 mid-grade spirit stones; each bid must be at least 20 mid-grade spirit stones!”

As soon as the host finished speaking, the entire auction house fell silent.

After a long while, an old farmer stared wide-eyed and asked incredulously, “How much?”

to continue reading the exciting content!

The host paused for a moment, then replied with a smile, “200 mid-grade spirit stones.”

“That attribute-less magical artifact only cost 200 mid-grade spirit stones!”

“Is one of your fruit trees equivalent to a magical artifact?”

“My goodness! No wonder you guys are getting rich!”

“You’re right, what’s the difference between this and outright robbery?”

This price has caused many interested people to grumble and complain.

Even Xu Changqing frowned, instantly losing the idea of bidding.

If you’re talking about spiritual plants with truly miraculous effects, then you’re willing to pay a bit more.

Judging from the description of the Four Seasons Fruit Tree, it seems to be just so-so.

Its main uses, besides being eaten, are for making elixirs.

Faced with everyone’s dissatisfaction, the host initially tried to deny it, saying, “This is the price listed by the seller.”

After being verbally abused by a group of rogue cultivators for nearly a minute, he finally backed down.

I immediately said I would ask the seller if the price could be changed.

Normally, the price of an item cannot be changed arbitrarily during the bidding process.

This time is an exception.

Firstly, it’s only just begun.

Secondly, it is indeed unreasonable.

“Then let’s wait a little longer.” Xu Changqing had already stood up, intending to leave for Yaoxiang Pavilion, but upon seeing this, he sat down again.

After a while, the host reappeared, quite excitedly saying, “We have just contacted the seller of this four-season fruit tree, and they have agreed to change the price.”

“How much?” Many people’s eyes revealed anticipation.

The host raised his right index finger and announced loudly, “The starting price is 100 mid-grade spirit stones, and each bid must be at least 10 mid-grade spirit stones!”
