Fang Yuan had the system, so he could easily see the Frost Arrow Gu’s attributes.
It was a Bronze quality Gu worm. After activating it with spirit essence, it could release arrows with ice attribute to injure the enemy.
Its biggest characteristic was that it had an elemental reserve, so it did not need to consume the Gu master’s ice elemental energy.
Following that, the middle-aged Gu master quickly introduced the item.
“The first item, Frost Arrow Gu, rank four Gu worm, uses very little spirit essence, even a Foundation Establishment Stage Gu master can use it without any burden, it is a necessary Gu worm for fighting enemies of a higher rank. The starting price is sixty thousand primeval stones!”
“61,000!”
“62,000!”
“65,000!”
…
The Gu masters started to bid one after another, and the competition was intense.
Fang Yuan was also hesitating whether he should take this Gu worm.
It looked pretty good, and it was also at rank four. It already had the transformation ability to become huge, so it would be of some help to him.
But when the price rose to 130,000, he gave up on the idea.
It was too expensive.
The people present were not stupid, and they all knew the value of Frost Arrow Gu, so they would not give it to you at a low price.
Back during the rock gambling, a Bronze quality Gu larva could be sold for 100,000 primeval stones.
This Frost Arrow Gu, which they had spent a lot of effort to raise to rank four, would definitely be sold at a much higher price.
Fang Yuan still had to keep the money to compete for that Gold quality Gu, so he could only give up.
“160,000!”
Li Tongzhou suddenly called out the price, raising it by more than ten thousand, his cold voice spreading throughout the auction hall.
The Gu masters in the auction hall all looked over, including the distinguished guests in the private room above.
Bai Yao also looked over, feeling a little strange.
“Why does this person look familiar?”
Fang Yuan now had the appearance of an old man, and she felt that she had never seen him before, but this person gave her a vague sense of closeness.
She shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
Jiang Yuncheng, who was in the next room, stood by the window and laughed heartily.
“Since it is the fairy’s request, I will give you face and not compete with you.”
In fact, he was not going to bid, and these words were meant for the Gu masters below to hear, asking them to give it up.
Even Jiang Yuncheng himself wanted to give Li Tongzhou face, so if the others did not give him face, it would be an insult.
As expected, the Gu masters below discussed in low voices, but no one raised their hands to bid.
Even Qin Wentian, who always liked to go against him, rarely went along with him.
In terms of pursuing the fairy, their goals were the same.
Qin Wentian also started to consider how he could give a good impression to the fairy.
The first Gu worm was bought by Li Tongzhou for 160,000 primeval stones.
“You really are rich.” Fang Yuan glanced at him. Was this still the same Li Tongzhou who suffered for a long time after losing a few hundred primeval stones?
Li Tongzhou grinned. “I received a total of one million primeval stones from my family for this auction.”
When this scene landed in Jiang Yuncheng’s eyes, he instantly felt as though his life had been completed.
The fairy smiled!
And she was smiling so happily.
Seems like everything he did was worth it!
Hm?
It didn’t seem like he did anything.
He just casually said a few words.
He was able to win the fairy’s smile with just a lift of his hand. What else did Qin Wentian have to compete with him!
Thinking of this, the corners of Jiang Yuncheng’s lips involuntarily curled up as he gestured provocatively at Qin Wentian.
“Fuck.”
Qin Wentian was infuriated. “You are the only one who can stop me, aren’t you?! I’m willing to bid for all the Gu worms and gift them to the fairy. Let’s see how you continue to be so proud of yourself!”
“Young Master, you can’t.” A black-robed man at the back advised. “Now is not the time to fight with Jiang Yuncheng. This time around, we are here on behalf of our clan and the Liuyun Sect to bid for that item. We must not delay this important matter.”
“Are you teaching me how to do things?”
“I wouldn’t dare…”
Qin Wentian coldly snorted. After hesitating for a moment, he fiercely glared at Jiang Yuncheng.
“I’ll let you be complacent for a while longer. When that item is in my hands, let’s see if you can still smile!”
The black-robed man at the back heaved a sigh of relief.
…
“Everyone, take a look. This item is a thousand-year-old yellow ginseng essence. It is an extremely rare supplementary material for Gu refinement.”
“Although it does not have elemental energy, it is very old and can be used for refinement of rank four and above. The low price is thirty thousand primeval stones, each increment must not be less than one thousand, the auction starts now!”
The middle-aged Gu master had just finished speaking when someone raised a sign.
“31,000!”
“34,000!”
“38,000!”
“45,000!”
“50,000!”
The price continued to rise.
Basically, the ones who offered were all Gu masters who had a certain degree of knowledge in the path of Gu refinement.
Gu refinement materials that had reached a thousand years old were rare. Even in Fang Yuan’s Gu Immortal Sect, he had only encountered them a few times.
Fang Yuan tried to make a bid, but was quickly suppressed by others.
This item was indeed very expensive, and it could not be obtained without 100,000 primeval stones.
This time, Jiang Yuncheng and Qin Wentian did not make an appearance.
They didn’t make any moves because of Fang Yuan’s identity as the fairy’s elder brother.
Naturally, they weren’t suspecting him.
After all, Gu masters had long lifespans. Maybe the fairy’s talent was extraordinary, and she might have succeeded in her cultivation when she was young, retaining her looks.
As for her elder brother, his talent was ordinary, and he only reached the Fusion Realm at the age of sixty or seventy. This was very normal.
They only felt that even if they helped Fang Yuan obtain this Gu refinement material, he would not help to speak well of them in front of the fairy.
As prodigies, they naturally would not do something meaningless like this.
In the end, this item fell into the hands of a clan’s Gu refinement master who spent 120,000 primeval stones.
“I better keep the money for later.”
Although Fang Yuan was tempted, he had no choice.
His funds were limited, so he could not buy whatever he wanted.
Time passed by unknowingly.
The items auctioned were getting better and better.
Now, it was a rank four Silver quality Gu worm, called the Wind Cloud Gu. It was a dual elemental movement support type Gu worm.
In terms of speed, it was much faster than Fang Yuan’s Cloud Moon Gu.
After all, the Cloud Moon Gu only took up one of the four elements of movement Gu, which were wind, light, lightning, and cloud, and since it was not a pure movement Gu, it was natural for it to be inferior.
The starting price of this Gu was ridiculously high, at 180,000.
“200,000!”
“250,000!”
“300,000!”
The Wind Cloud Gu was one of the most popular items because it could greatly increase a Gu master’s survivability. Many of the guests in the private rooms who had been silent all this time started bidding, causing a small climax on the first day of the auction.
Fang Yuan gave up without even thinking.
This Gu worm’s price was definitely above five hundred thousand.
Many people were like him, helplessly giving up as they watched the rising price.
But there were also some rich competitors who joined the competition.
When the price reached 450,000, there were only two parties competing, both Gu masters that Fang Yuan did not know.
In the end, with a high price of 540,000, the first day of the auction was finalized.
The first day of the auction was finally over, and the subsequent auctions still had to be adjusted, maintaining a mysterious atmosphere.
The Gu masters were still not satisfied, but they could only leave one after another.
Fang Yuan planned to look for First Senior Zhao Hede, so he had to think of a way to leave the crowd and find a secluded place to undo the disguise.
However, just as Li Tongzhou and Fang Yuan were about to leave, two groups of people appeared in front of them.
“Young Master Jiang has invited the two of you for a gathering at the Phoenix Perch Restaurant tonight.”
“Hmph, Young Master Qin has also invited the two of you for a gathering at the Drunken Heaven Pavilion tonight.”
