Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation-Chapter 829 - 616: The Gun Shoots the Leading Bird_2
Chapter 829: Chapter 616: The Gun Shoots the Leading Bird_2
And precisely because of this.
Since all the Golden Elixir Masters didn’t want to be the first to speak out, and those with lower cultivation realms didn’t dare to bid, the auction naturally grew cold.
At this moment, the auction hall fell into an eerie silence.
Inside the private room where He Song was located.
Seeing such a scene, He Song also kept his mouth shut, with no intention of being the first to bid and expose his need.
For He Song.
If he could secure the cultivator’s Golden Core, then he would surely obtain a Gold Core Puppet afterward.
A Gold Core Puppet could provide a huge boost to either a Gold Core Cultivator.
Or an entire Golden Elixir power.
An ordinary Gold Core Cultivator, upon acquiring a Gold Core Puppet, would likely possess tremendous combat strength in the Golden Elixir Realm.
Moreover, their own safety would greatly increase.
Afterward, no matter what kind of existence they faced, their chances of survival would be far greater than that of an ordinary cultivator at the Great Perfection of Golden Elixir.
If a Golden Elixir power were to gain an additional Gold Core Puppet.
That power would become enduring and inexhaustible.
Even if no Golden Elixir strong beings emerged within the power for a time.
With the Gold Core Puppet present, it could still help the Golden Elixir power through the toughest of times.
Later on, it might even enable another Golden Elixir Master to emerge within that power.
Thus, through such cycles.
To say that the Gold Core Puppet is the strongest foundation for a Golden Elixir power would not be an exaggeration.
After all, other treasures require people to operate them.
But a Gold Core Puppet only needs a sufficient quantity of spirit stones to fight for the sect until its destruction.
Although He Song doesn’t have his own force at the moment.
If he could obtain this cultivator’s Golden Core and refine a Gold Core Puppet from it.
It would be of great help to his own strength and safety.
Naturally, compared to speaking out now, being the first to expose his motive and attract the attention of others.
It would be better to remain silent for the time being and make a move at the last crucial moment.
In this way, he could conceal his intentions without being detected by others.
You have to understand.
In the eyes of those Golden Elixir Masters, He Song.
Was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator who dared to bid against a Golden Elixir Master.
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
For those Golden Elixir Masters who wanted this cultivator’s Golden Core, they wouldn’t be too wary of He Song.
And that’s exactly why, upon seeing this situation, He Song naturally kept to the sidelines to see how the Treasure Pavilion would handle it.
The auction had suddenly cooled off.
Those who were anxious were naturally from the Treasure Pavilion.
Though the cultivators of the Treasure Pavilion were certain that this cultivator’s Golden Core would not lack buyers.
But if things continued to drag on, how was the rest of the auction supposed to proceed?
Who would account for the time wasted on the auction of this cultivator’s Golden Core?
Such an incident wasn’t supposed to happen.
Under He Song’s watchful gaze.
People from the Treasure Pavilion soon began to manage the sudden chill in the auction.
Seeing that no one was bidding, the female Foundation Establishment cultivator showcasing the treasures quickly channeled mana, raising the jade box in her hands swiftly.
As the jade box ascended slowly, the Golden Core inside it burst out with an even more dazzling golden light at this moment.
As the golden light spread continuously, pairs of eyes filled with greed and caution also suddenly lit up at this moment.
“This cultivator’s Golden Core was obtained from the sitting transformation of a late-stage Golden Core Cultivator.”
“The starting bid is ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
“Each increase in the bid cannot be less than one thousand mid-grade spirit stones.”
“Fellow Daoists, Sirs, you must not hesitate and miss this great opportunity.”
“…”
As the woman continued to speak softly, persuading.
The look in the eyes of the cultivators gazing at this cultivator’s Golden Core began to ignite with flickers of flame.
Treasures right before the eyes.
Soft voices of beautiful women were whispering persuasions close to their ears.
Moreover, they were at an auction, a place with an excellent atmosphere for spurring desire.
Even He Song could not help but give the Cultivator’s Golden Core a couple of additional glances.
What about the other cultivators?
Under such gentle inducement, continuously stimulating the cultivators’ greed.
In the end, there was a Gold Core Cultivator who could not conceal the covetousness in his heart and called out a price.
“Fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones!”
Listening to the sound of the bid coming from above the auction hall.
A stoic expression remained on He Song’s face, but in his heart, at that moment, he decisively took note of this individual.
This person might very well become his formidable opponent in the quest to acquire this Cultivator’s Golden Core!
Furthermore, He Song believed
that if anyone else harboured the same intention to ultimately secure the Cultivator’s Golden Core, they would have marked this person as their greatest adversary in an instant.
After all, whoever exposes their need first, naturally gets labeled by others as desperately needing this Cultivator’s Golden Core.
In such a situation, it was just as He Song had initially thought.
The first person to make a bid would undoubtedly become the target of all others with the same goal.
The reason for He Song’s silence was naturally because of this.
He did not want to suddenly find himself marked by a host of Golden Elixir Masters.
Of course, this was also related to the fact that being the first to call out a bid brought no benefits.
And as someone called out the first price.
Subsequently, naturally, one Golden Elixir Master after another began to surface, pushing the price even higher.
The price of fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones
was actually just the starting bid.
Fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones, although a substantial amount for a Golden Elixir Master,
to be honest, weren’t considered high.
Especially when that Golden Elixir Master has a gold core force at his command, generating a continuous flow of abundant spirit stones.
In that case, the fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones weren’t considered much at all.
The worth of a Cultivator’s Golden Core was definitely not limited to this amount.
Otherwise, why would He Song need to nearly give away his entire fortune to exchange for four Cultivator’s Golden Cores from Meng Guan and Wei Fan?
Would that be if not for the extraordinary value of a Cultivator’s Golden Core?
However,
as the price of the Cultivator’s Golden Core began to climb steadily.
And quickly rose from fifty thousand to eighty or ninety thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones, even breaking through the significant threshold of one hundred thousand soon after.
While the continuous bidding from the outside world carried on.
Inside, He Song was gradually feeling a sense of surprise.
Based on He Song’s previous understanding of the price of a Cultivator’s Golden Core,
the cost of one Golden Core was roughly equivalent to the entire fortune of a Golden Elixir Master.
Yet the entire fortune of a Golden Elixir Master also depends on their cultivation realm.
If the cultivation is at the early to mid-stages of Golden Elixir, the entire fortune of a Golden Elixir Master, even if altogether added up, is probably not likely to exceed a hundred thousand or so Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
During this period, the fortunes of Golden Core Cultivators are generally not yet subjected to a substantial increase.
Because at this time, Golden Core Cultivators are essentially still in a period of rapid strength growth and have not begun to extensively accumulate spirit stones for personal use.
Moreover, having just broken through to the Golden Core, even if they desired to amass spirit stones, there would be nowhere to obtain them.
Thus, a fortune of a hundred thousand or so Mid-grade Spirit Stones is considered normal.
But, if the Golden Elixir Master’s cultivation has reached the Later Stage of Golden Elixir, or even Golden Elixir Great Perfection,
the fortune of this cultivator would have grown significantly.
Once the cultivation reaches the Later Stage of Golden Elixir, or Golden Elixir Great Perfection,
as personal power begins to advance more slowly, Golden Core Cultivators naturally have a lot of time to go out for experiential learning, participate in various treasure hunts, and so on.
Furthermore, after many years of nurturing, if they have a gold core force under them,
over the years, it would have been able to provide a steady supply of a large number of spirit stones for this Golden Elixir Master.
And precisely because of this
at this stage, a cultivator’s fortune would experience a meteoric rise.
