The auctioneer brought out a very ordinary wooden stick.
On the surface, there was nothing remarkable about it, but the engravings were ancient, suggesting its considerable age.
Precisely because nothing was known about it, it held even greater value.
"This is a wooden stick imbued with the essence of Wood Spirit Energy, its specific purpose is not entirely clear to our establishment, but it is certain that it originates from ancient times."
Immediately, the crowd below burst into discussion.
Anything from ancient times, even if somewhat defective, would cause a mad scramble.
"The starting bid is fifty thousand Top Grade Spirit Stones."
As soon as these words were spoken, the cultivators in the main hall knew they had little chance.
Not many cultivators possessed Top Grade Spirit Stones.
Only those from great sects and trading houses had the capability to bid.
The world is just that unfair; what does equivalent cultivation matter when you can only watch others buy things?
