Terran Guardian - Chapter 3345

Chapter 3326 Price Exceeds 100 Million

“Sixteen Hundred!”

“Seventeen Hundred!”

“Two Thousand!”

“Two Thousand!” “Two Thousand One Hundred!”

“Two Thousand Five Hundred!”

“…”

Each time Shen Changqing raised the price, it was by at least several hundred high-grade immortal stones.

In a short period of time,

this formation had reached a price of two thousand five hundred.

At this point,

many cultivators hesitated.

While a seventh-grade mid-grade Grandmaster formation was certainly impressive, true comprehendment took time.

Furthermore,

Grandmasters of this caliber were rare.

Many factions bid on this formation, hoping to have their own Grandmasters comprehend it and see if they could exploit this opportunity to explore the mysteries of the seventh tier.

However, everyone understood that the probability of achieving a breakthrough to the seventh tier with only a seventh-grade mid-grade formation was extremely small. Furthermore

,

someone was clearly determined to acquire this formation.

If the price continued to rise, who knew where the formation’s value would ultimately end.

If he got carried away and raised the price too high, and the other party withdrew halfway, the item would be completely lost to him.

Therefore,

after 2,500 high-grade immortal stones, no other forces would compete for it, and the item would naturally fall into Shen Changqing’s hands.

“Looks like I’m lucky!”

Shen Changqing smiled faintly.

The value of something like a formation varies from person to person.

If it’s not used, then 1,000 or 2,000 high-grade immortal stones is a waste. If it is, then doubling or tripling the price is no problem.

According to Shen Changqing’s original thinking, this seventh-grade mid-grade formation would cost at least 5,000 high-grade immortal stones. At 2,500 high-grade immortal stones, it would be a good deal.

When this inheritance catalog containing the seventh-grade mid-grade formation fell into Shen Changqing’s hands, his mind was absorbed into it, and many profound Daoist rhymes surged in his mind.

Eventually,

Shen Changqing became familiar with the name and function of this formation:

the Great Sun Mysterious Yellow Formation!

A mid-grade seventh-tier defensive formation.

Drawing upon the power of the Great Sun, the Mysterious Yellow, it guards an area, rendering it difficult to truly break even by the hand of a mid-level Immortal Emperor.

However,

this formation is profoundly profound.

Even with Shen Changqing’s current cultivation in the art of formations, truly comprehending its mysteries, or even actually deploying it, remains a challenge.

“A defensive formation is useful for defense, but the current defensive formations at the Heavenly Demon Holy Land are of average quality. Even stopping a mid-level Immortal Emperor would be a challenge.

If I could deploy this formation, it would be a valuable asset!”

Shen Changqing mused.

Furthermore,

formations aren’t disposable.

With sufficient effort and resources, replicating the Great Sun, the Mysterious Yellow, formation would be a breeze.

In this way,

the formation’s full potential could be unleashed.

However, all this presupposes Shen Changqing’s ability to comprehend the formation’s mysteries and deploy them effectively.

Otherwise,

all that remains is mere empty talk.

Conquer this formation.

Shen Changqing stopped bidding.

The subsequent auction items didn’t particularly interest him.

Immortal Emperor inheritances!

Seventh-tier elixirs!

Imperial Immortal Weapons!

Seventh-tier Immortal Talismans!

And

so many other treasures, once considered rare even in the higher realms, were now on display.

Demon God Luohou sighed, “No wonder so many powers flocked to the Tongtian Pavilion auction. Even if they weren’t there for the Immortal Elixir, these items alone were enough to attract so many!”

“Tongtian Pavilion has a profound foundation, unmatched by ordinary powers. For other chambers of commerce to achieve an auction of this scale would take countless years!”

Shen Changqing shook his head.

It wasn’t easy for ordinary chambers of commerce to achieve such a scale.

To put it bluntly,

any of these items would be considered a crowning treasure anywhere else.

Even the original Panlong Immortal Bow was a similar story. But Tongtian Pavilion managed to pull off this auction in just a hundred years.   One

can only imagine their profound heritage.   As time passed,   the auction gradually drew to a close.   During this time,   Shen Changqing also saw the Dao Bones of other Chaos Ferocious Beasts appear.   Unfortunately,   these Chaos Ferocious Beast Dao Bones were not Innate Chaos Ferocious Beasts.   Even those with Extreme Yin attributes, Shen Changqing did not take action.   After all, although   they were both Chaos Ferocious Beasts,   whether they possessed Innate Bloodline or not was a completely different concept.   If ordinary Chaos Ferocious Beast Dao Bones were used to open up an Extreme Yin Universe, perhaps the difference would not be noticeable in the short term, but in the long run, the foundational essence would never be comparable to that created by Innate Chaos Ferocious Beast Dao Bones.   Therefore,   Shen Changqing would not compromise.   The foundation of the Immortal Emperor Realm was crucial to his own pursuit of immortality.   Such a matter   was not something he could take lightly.   Even if it took a little longer, Shen Changqing would not do something that would destroy his foundation   .   As another lot was auctioned off, Xia Ze took out a box, his expression becoming more serious. The other cultivators in the Immortal Palace instinctively sat up straight.   All the cultivators’ eyes were now fixed on the box   .

Xia Ze didn’t hold back, simply opening the box. A surge of immense vitality erupted, filling the entire universe. Infinite Daoist rhymes permeated the air, as if a supreme divine object had emerged.

“Hiss, this is the elixir of immortality!”

“Such terrifying vitality, no wonder it can grant cultivators another life!”

“Even if this heaven-defying elixir doesn’t have any life-extending effects, this immense vitality will further enhance this emperor’s strength—”

Each Immortal Emperor’s breathing quickened, their eyes fixed on the elixir, eager to seize it.

But the moment the thought arose, they forcibly suppressed it.

You’re kidding!

This is Tongtian Tower. If anyone

dared to forcibly seize the elixir, they wouldn’t have a chance of leaving alive.

Furthermore,

many of the top powers were present here. Anyone attempting to seize it would undoubtedly become the immediate target of public criticism.

Therefore,

risking it by force

would be courting death.

Feeling the intense gazes, Xia Ze smiled.

“The Immortal Elixir! This item needs no further introduction. There’s no starting price for this kind of elixir. Please bid freely, and the highest bidder wins!”

“One million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Five million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Ten million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Fifteen million—”

As soon as Xia Ze finished speaking, the immortal mansions from all sides immediately began bidding. In the blink of an eye, the price of the Immortal Elixir had already surpassed ten million.

This caused many cultivators who had gathered to join in the fun to gasp.

“Over ten million high-grade immortal stones in such a short time! I wonder what the final price will be!”

“In my opinion, the final price of the Immortal Elixir will be at least hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones!”

These cultivators were shocked.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that at this rate, the Immortal Elixir would fetch at least hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones.

At the thought of this,

many cultivators were secretly horrified.

Hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones!

For them, it was an unimaginable sum.

Forget possessing it.

They had never even seen it.

Yet,

these cultivators were thrilled.

Even if they couldn’t seize the immortality elixir, witnessing such a grand spectacle was something they could boast about for the rest of their lives.

“Twenty million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Twenty-one million!”

“Why bother? Fifty million!”

In the immortal residence of the ancient Xiang family, King Xiang directly raised the price. He instantly raised

the price by nearly thirty million high-grade immortal stones, sending shockwaves through many factions.

But soon,

this price was surpassed by other factions.

But King Xiang’s price hike also made them realize that instead of testing the waters, it was better to go all out. Trying to snag a bargain amidst so many factions was impossible.

…

“One hundred million high-grade immortal stones! What does Saint Lord think the price of this immortality elixir will ultimately be?”

The demon god Luohou watched the ever-increasing bids, his heart trembling.

With a flick of his sleeve, Shen Changqing suddenly appeared, as if from thin air, a stone table materialized. Two cups of celestial tea, steaming white, rose upon it.

One cup moved autonomously to the front of the Demon God Rāhu, while Shen Changqing took the other, sipped it, and then smiled faintly.

“Treasures like these that extend lifespans have never had a fixed price. Anyone who wants them can claim them.

In the face of life and death, so-called immortal stones are merely external possessions!”

Upon hearing this,

the Demon God Rāhu’s face lit up with understanding.

Indeed,

such treasures couldn’t possibly have a price.

Especially for ancient Immortal Emperors nearing the end of their lives, even tens or even hundreds of millions of high-grade immortal stones would be necessary.

Therefore,

the final price of the Immortal Elixir remains unknown.

As time passed,

the price of the Immortal Elixir steadily climbed.

After breaking through the 100 million mark, the price continued to rise unabated, only to surpass 200 million high-grade immortal stones, where the pace of price appreciation began to slow.

Even so,

the price didn’t stagnate

. The difference was that

by now,

bids were no longer being raised in increments of one or two million, but rather by tens or even hundreds of millions.

“Two hundred and sixty million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Two hundred and seventy million high-grade immortal stones!”

“Two hundred million…”

A moment later,

the price of the Immortal Elixir had risen to three hundred million high-grade immortal stones.

“Enough!”

Shen Changqing exhaled.

Regardless of how many high-grade immortal stones were sold, the amount needed to purchase the ninth-tier star core was more than sufficient, eliminating the need to divert resources elsewhere.

For some ancient immortal emperors, exchanging a single immortal elixir for a supremely advanced immortal emperor technique would be a loss-making proposition.

But for Shen Changqing, it was a guaranteed win.

At this point.

Shen Changqing’s heart was also much calmer, and he seemed to be able to remain calm even when facing a crisis.
