144: Inheritance of the Third-Level Mage

Lin Yucheng stared blankly at the "Third-Order Formation Master Inheritance." He clearly remembered that this Inheritance's final Auction price was also 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Back then, he didn't have that many Spirit Stones, so he didn't bid. Now, it surprisingly appeared here.

Could it be?

Could it be that the mysterious person in private room number one back then was City Lord Chen He, the City Lord of Qingyang City?

This City Lord Chen He is indeed a very shrewd person. He bought this Inheritance and is now auctioning it at the same price.

During this period, he at least made a copy, which means he made a huge profit.

It's just that the price is set a bit too high. It's unlikely that any Family or Loose Cultivator would be willing to buy this Third-Order Inheritance for 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

The main reason is that it's difficult to produce that many Spirit Stones.

Lin Xuanbo looked at the quiet scene and directly said, "This old man bids 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

Chen Sichen was a bit surprised. When he and his father were discussing, they had already prepared for this auctioned item to go unsold, but he didn't expect Lin Xuanbo to bid.

As long as this Inheritance is sold, their City Lord's Mansion will definitely make a huge profit.

For a long time, no Cultivator had bid, not because they were unwilling, but because they lacked the confidence.

Lin Xuanbo coughed lightly, intending to remind Chen Sichen.

Chen Sichen then came back to his senses. He cleared his throat and said, "40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, does any other Fellow Daoist wish to bid?"

"Alright then, 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones once, 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones twice, 40,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones thrice, sold!"

Lin Xuanbo had his considerations. This Third-Order Inheritance would become the Lin Family's stepping stone to advancing to a more Advanced level.

Yuan Wang looked at Lin Xuanbo's bid and said gloomily, "Lin Xuanbo, it's easy to acquire a Third-Order Inheritance, but it's difficult to hold onto a Third-Order Inheritance."

Lin Xuanbo merely said indifferently, "No need for Sect Leader Yuan to trouble himself!"

So far, the Lin Family already has two Third-Order Inheritances, namely the Talisman Maker Inheritance and the Formation Master Inheritance.

As for the Lin Family's most impressive Spiritual Plant Master Inheritance, it is only a Second-Order Inheritance.

Lin Yongmao is also facing such a predicament. His current Spiritual Plant Master and Alchemist skills have both reached Second-Order, but without a Third-Order Inheritance, he cannot advance further.

Although the "Hundred Arts of Cultivation" function allows him to continuously increase his proficiency, it's still not enough without the corresponding Inheritance.

"The fifty-fifth auctioned item, which everyone is highly anticipating, is three Foundation Establishment Pills bundled for Auction, with a starting price of 6,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Also, there are too many Foundation Establishment Pills appearing at once!"

"This Second-Order Alchemist of the Lin Family is truly skilled at Alchemy. In such a short time, he actually refined so many Foundation Establishment Pills. He must be stronger than the one from Qinglan Sect."

"This time, the price should be even lower. I should have known not to Auction it so hastily."

"Three Foundation Establishment Pills bundled for Auction, do you think you can outbid those Cultivation Families? You should also consider your own financial strength."

"You're right."

...

Ultimately, the three Foundation Establishment Pills were acquired by Cao Yusheng for 10,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, giving the Cao Family a total of five Foundation Establishment Pills.

Although Cao Yusheng had only recently become the Cao Family Clan Chief, he possessed great foresight, which even Lin Yongmao deeply admired.

Moreover, he would likely soon successfully advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Next is the final auctioned item. This is a fire-attribute Third-Order Cultivation Technique—"Fire Dragon Spiritual Skill."

"This is a Third-Order fire-attribute Cultivation Technique. When Cultivated to its peak, it can even give rise to the Dantian phenomenon of 'Burning Heaven and Boiling Seas.'"

"This complete Cultivation Technique has a starting price of 50,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and each bid increment must not be less than 1,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

The moment Lin Yucheng saw this Cultivation Technique, he became even more certain of his guess: City Lord Chen He must have also been to Yang City and participated in the Auction with him.

However, Lin Yucheng vaguely remembered that the "Third-Order Formation Master Inheritance" and the "Fire Dragon Spiritual Skill" were not acquired by the same person back then.

Could it be...

But Lin Yucheng didn't need to delve into these matters.

Lin Yucheng and Lin Xuanbo exchanged glances, and Lin Xuanbo directly stopped Lin Yucheng with his eyes.

Meaning, they would not buy this Third-Order Cultivation Technique.

Lin Yucheng gave a wry smile. Even if he wanted to buy it, he couldn't afford that many Spirit Stones.

The finalFinale item was indeed extremely tempting, but there were almost no Cultivators suitable for it. However, City Lord Chen He Cultivates fire-attribute Cultivation Techniques, and it's unknown if he has Cultivated the "Fire Dragon Spiritual Skill."

Yuan Wang, as a Sect Master, also wanted to acquire this Cultivation Technique to strengthen the Sect's foundation, but unfortunately, he didn't have that many Spirit Stones.

Qinglan Sect and the Lin Family, the two most likely to acquire this Cultivation Technique in Qingyang, did not make a move, which meant that thisFinale item would ultimately go unsold.

As expected, Chen Sichen waited for several minutes, but no one bid.

The Cultivation Technique was good, but there was no suitable person for it.

"This Auction concludes here. The auctioned items will be delivered to everyone shortly," Chen Sichen announced.

Many Loose Cultivators who hadn't acquired anything had already begun to leave one by one, and a black-robed person was also among them.

Countless Cultivators dressed like him were present, and it didn't attract anyone's attention.

"I didn't expect that even tiny Qingyang would have so many resources. I truly underestimated it."

The black-robed Cultivator thought to himself, but he had no intention of making a move. Instead, he simply watched everything as an observer.

"Those two just now should be Lin Family Cultivators, but there's no Qi Luck Spirit Beast aura on them. Did I look in the wrong direction?"

The black-robed Cultivator left dejectedly. He still intended to probe further.

Yuan Wang had also left after obtaining the "Starfall Iron."

Lin Yucheng and Lin Xuanbo collected the large amount of resources they had acquired and prepared to leave.

This Auction was very fruitful. Besides the rare Materials, they also acquired the "Third-Order Formation Master Inheritance," the High-Grade Magical Artifact "Ink Jade Wolf Hair Brush," and the thousand-year gold thread grass.

Lin Yucheng walked to Han Mi's side and respectfully bowed, "Father-in-law, I'll be heading back now. Please come to Cloud Mist Mountain often when you have time."

Han Mi smiled and nodded. He was now proud of his decision back then. Thanks to marrying his two daughters into the Lin Family, how else could he have such a close connection with the Lin Family?

Of course, he would visit the Lin Family often. When his Foundation Establishment Pills ran out, he would go to the Lin Family to request a few more.

Given his relationship with the Lin Family, this shouldn't be difficult, right?

He also wondered who this newly promoted Second-Order Alchemist of the Lin Family was. Was he familiar with him?

Although Han Mi's Cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was, after all, the Han Family's only Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator. If a new Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator were nurtured, he could also be released from his position as Clan Chief.

"Son-in-law, go ahead! Be careful on your way. I imagine Qinglan Sect won't let this go easily," Han Mi instructed.

Lin Xuanbo had a gentle smile on his face. He wasn't afraid of Yuan Wang alone, and Yuan Wang was currently severely injured.
