Chapter 81: Chapter 71: The Spirit of the Red Raven_i

Translator: 549690339

Earthfire Sword! A tier-four premium spiritual artifact! Crafted by the master Artifact Refiner from the Liyang Sect using Sky Red Copper, Star-Refined Steel, and Molten Iron, and sealed with the spirit of three-tailed Flame Fox!

As he spoke, the auctioneer channeled spiritual power into the sword, and a fiery red fox with three tails jumped out from it, roared, and then darted back into it.

This is perfectly tailored to me! If I could get it, not only could my strength improve significantly, but it also has the effect of accelerating my cultivation when carried around!”

Considering the price, maybe I can afford it!

Just as Xu Mu was getting excited, the host announced the minimum bid.

The starting price is one hundred medium-grade spirit stones! Each bid must not be less than ten medium-grade spirit stones!”

No sooner had the words left his mouth, someone immediately placed a bid without giving Xu Mu a moment of hesitation.

Two hundred medium-grade spirit stones!

Three hundred medium-grade spirit stones!

Three hundred and fifty!

In the end, this tier-four Flame Fox Sword was sold for five hundred and twenty medium-grade spirit stones.

Xu Mu:

His face turned red!

He thought he was so rich, but he couldn’t even afford a sword.

Fortunately, such expensive items are few, and most auction products consist of under one hundred medium-grade spirit stones; otherwise, those at the Qi Cultivation Stage would be at a disadvantage.

However, if a tier-four spiritual artifact sealed with a spirit is so expensive, wouldn’t the tier-five Ice Soul Cold Chi Sword he owned be worth even more?

With this thought, Xu Mu’s mood instantly improved substantially.

The Song Family is indeed not simple! A small Foundation Establishment family not only has a tier-five spiritual artifact and Sky Thunder Beads but also divine items like the Heavenly Tribulation Vine!”

Could the Song Family have received heritage from some Golden Core Stage or Nascent Soul Stage expert?!”

Upon careful thought, this was indeed possible.

Pity that the Song Family has been annihilated and not even a trace is left. Even if one wanted to look for it, they wouldn’t know where to start.

While Xu Mu was deep in thought, the monster beast spirits finally took stage.

Tier-four monster beast Ice Crocodile spirit! The starting price is fifty medium-grade spirit stones!”

Each bid can not be less than one medium-grade spirit stone!

The auctioneer finished speaking and it was a while before someone started to bid.

Fifty-one medium-grade spirit stones!

The Ice Crocodile spirit was finally sold for a mere fifty-five medium-grade spirit stones.

“As I expected, the price of a monster beast spirit is not high!

Xu Mu was secretly delighted.

Monster beast spirits are, in reality, a type of crafting material for artifacts.

Product refining and pill refining are the same; not every attempt is successful, and if one fails, the spirit is destroyed directly.

If unlucky, the artifact itself might also shatter.

Because of this, spiritual artifacts with monster beast spirits are so expensive.

Ironback Mysterious Turtle spirit! The starting price is sixty medium-grade spirit stones!”

Blackwood Scorpion spirit! The starting price is forty medium-grade spirit stones!”

Black Gold Pig spirit! The starting price is seventy medium-grade spirit stones!”

Xu Mu noticed through observation that the price of spirits is not fixed. Depending on the attributes, some not only have a high starting price, but the competition for them is also quite fierce.

Some are cheap but still no one is interested.

I wonder how much a fire-attribute spirit costs?

As Xu Mu contemplated, the auctioneer brought out a fire-attribute spirit.

Tier-five monster beast Earthfire Salamander spirit! The starting price is one hundred and fifty medium-grade spirit stones!”

Xu Mu was speechless.

He could understand if a tier-five monster beast spirit is priced higher than tier-four, but isn’t this too expensive?

Just now a tier-five Green Wind Ox spirit was auctioned, the starting price was only one hundred medium-grade spirit stones, and the final transaction price barely exceeded one hundred and five.

But this one started at the highest price of the previous item.

No one should be buying it, right?” Xu Mu muttered in his heart.

One hundred and eighty medium-grade spirit stones!

One hundred and ninety!

Two hundred and ten!”

Not only did someone buy, but the competition was also very fierce. The final transaction price reached a staggering two hundred and forty-eight medium­grade spirit stones.

This is insane!”

Xu Mu couldn’t help complaining in his heart.

These are both tier-five spirits, how can the price gap be so wide?

What Xu Mu didn’t know was that the reason why the price of fire-attribute spirits is high is because the Liyang Sect is backed by the Earthfire. Half of the disciples in the sect cultivate fire-attribute martial methods, and even the Liyang Sect’s jurisdiction is impacted. The proportion of those who cultivate fire-attribute martial methods far exceeds that of other attributes.

Moreover, those who cultivate fire-attribute martial methods are usually either Alchemists or Artifact Refiners—both wealthy people. So, fire-attribute- related treasures usually get hyped to a very high price.

Fortunately, the price of the next fire-attribute spirit made him feel a bit better.

Tier-four monster beast Red Fire Crow spirit! The starting price is eighty medium-grade spirit stones! Each bid increase cannot be less than one medium-grade spirit stone!”

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone bid eighty-five medium­grade spirit stones.

Ninety medium-grade spirit stones!

Ninety-five!

Ninety-seven!”

One hundred!

One hundred and two!”

After reaching one hundred, the price increase for the Red Fire Crow spirit started to slow down.
