"Thirty-four thousand Spirit Stones,"
As soon as the words fell, someone immediately picked up the bid.
"Thirty-five thousand Spirit Stones."
"Thirty-six thousand Spirit Stones."
Once someone initiated the bidding, the price of the Foundation Establishment Pill started rising by thousands.
The increments seemed small, but the rate of increase was swift.
It wasn't long before it surpassed fifty thousand Spirit Stones, which caused many who were initially eager to turn pale, and soon they discarded the idea of using Spirit Stones and turned to think about secret bids.
All present were cultivators, and who didn't have some treasures hidden up their sleeves? Even if one's assets were insufficient, there were still spells, right?
The four essentials of cultivation are "Dharma, Wealth, Comrades, and Place," with Dharma being of foremost importance.
As long as one was willing to sell their own Cultivation Technique, couldn't they exchange it for a Foundation Establishment Pill?
