The decision to explore the mysterious cave dwelling instantly ignited everyone's enthusiasm. The camp, which had been fairly quiet, suddenly transformed into a bustling vegetable market. Everywhere people were bartering, and even chief disciples like Wen Chunhe, Yuan Chuige, and Yan Beichen were exchanging useful spiritual talismans and medicinal pills with one another. As for magical instruments, since they were the elites of their respective sects, the gear they used was already of the highest quality, leaving no need for replacements.
Seeing the chief disciples making their moves, the fellow who had been selling the golden rat pelts instantly regretted his haste. Had he put his goods up for sale right now, the price would have been much better, and he might have directly traded them for even superior items.
Sure enough, the fellow apprentice-brothers who had discovered the golden rat alongside him now saw their opportunity and produced the remaining three golden claws, setting their starting bid no lower than three hundred spirit stones. One of them even demanded a Greater Soul-Returning Pill from the Changchun Sect in exchange.
