131: Chapter 131 Don't Let Me Down
"There are quite a few good things."
Lin Ming sat on the chair and casually picked up a fruit to put into his mouth.
This Wanfu Auction indeed has some substance.
"Is there anything you've taken a liking to?"
Master Yun Hua asked.
"No."
Lin Ming shook his head.
The items were good, but they weren't of much use to the current Lin Ming.
"Me neither."
Su Lianxue shook her head.
For her in the Spirit Guiding Realm, most of the items currently at the auction were also of little use.
Master Yun Hua saw this and didn't say anything.
As Grade Four, Grade Five, and even Grade Six items appeared, the atmosphere of the auction became increasingly heated.
"The Profound Water Scripture, a water-attribute Cultivation Technique that can be practiced up to the Bitter Sea Realm."
A Jade Slip appeared, containing a Cultivation Technique that could reach the level of a Kuhai Master.
"Starting price: five thousand medium-grade origin stones."
"Seven thousand medium-grade origin stones."
A deep voice rang out from a private box on the second floor.
A Cultivation Technique that led directly to the Bitter Sea Realm instantly triggered a scramble, causing some families and Sects on the second floor to bid immediately.
One more Bitter Sea Realm Cultivation Technique meant one more option; even an ordinary Bitter Sea Realm Cultivation Technique was worth fighting for.
The auction venue was divided into five floors, with seating arranged based on a combination of cultivation level, influence, and other factors.
The first floor was mostly for Loose Cultivators, specifically those at the Spirit Platform Realm or below.
The second floor was for small families, small Sects, and practitioners in the Spirit Treasury Realm.
The third floor was for medium-sized forces.
The fourth floor was for large-scale forces.
The fifth floor was for top-tier forces.
However, with so many forces participating this time, the private boxes on the third and fourth floors were mixed.
The price of this Cultivation Technique soared, surpassing ten thousand medium-grade origin stones in the blink of an eye.
In the end, it was auctioned off to a small Sect for eleven thousand medium-grade origin stones.
"Next, I believe everyone knows what the upcoming auction item is,"
Manager Huang Xing said.
"Fellow Daoist Huang, don't waste time; everyone is waiting."
A voice drifted out from a private box on the third floor.
"Chen Liedong, it's him."
"Normal. With such good items appearing, how could the Chen Family be absent?"
On the first floor, someone recognized the source of the voice: the head of the Chen Family, a local Family in Cangyuan City, who was also a practitioner at the Spirit Treasury Realm Nine Heavens.
It was said that he was only a step away from becoming a Kuhai Master.
"The seven-turn return-to-heaven pill, High Grade. Below the Nirvana Realm, as long as one still has a breath of Qi left, they can be fully revived without any side effects."
This time, Manager Huang Xing personally brought out the Medicinal Pill.
He opened the mouth of the bottle, and a refreshing fragrance immediately wafted out.
Before long, the entire auction hall was filled with this refreshing scent.
Don't let me down.
Lin Ming watched this, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
The items he put up for auction had better fetch a good price; he hoped they wouldn't disappoint him.
After all, Cangyuan City was considered a large city in the cultivation world; otherwise, Lin Ming wouldn't have chosen to auction his items here.
The refreshing fragrance sent a jolt through many hearts, drawing them in. Some even found that after smelling the scent, the hidden injuries within their bodies seemed to be slightly repaired.
There was no mistake; this was a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill.
"Starting price: one hundred High Grade Origin Stones."
Manager Huang Xing sealed the bottle and announced the starting price of the Medicinal Pill.
For a Medicinal Pill of this level, Low Grade and medium-grade origin stones could no longer measure its value; only High Grade Origin Stones would do.
"Damn, so this is a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill, and a High Grade one at that. This is the first time in my life I've seen one."
"Yeah, I wonder who has such a grand hand to put this kind of Medicinal Pill up for auction."
"Say, maybe it's someone from the Medicine Cauldron Sect."
The Medicine Cauldron Sect was a top-tier Sect focused on Alchemy, and it even had a Grade Eight Alchemist.
"The Medicine Cauldron Sect wouldn't put this kind of Medicinal Pill in an auction."
"I heard that this Grade Seven Medicinal Pill and the Origin Weapon were crafted by the same person. I wonder which force is so extravagant."
"Yeah, I'm curious too."
"Stop being curious; sometimes curiosity can kill you."
"Just watch; these things aren't for the likes of us."
"Two hundred High Grade Origin Stones. My Wu Family wants this."
In a private box on the third floor, one Family was the first to speak.
"Is the Wu Family so great? I bid three hundred High Grade Origin Stones."
"Three hundred and ten."
"Three hundred and fifty."
"Four hundred."
In an instant, the price of this Medicinal Pill directly broke through five hundred High Grade Origin Stones.
Forces from the third and fourth floors had all stepped in; those below the third floor basically had no chance to even speak.
This starting price alone was enough to make them shrink back.
This was the price of a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill.
However, this price was just the beginning.
"One thousand."
"The City Lord's Manor has finally made a move."
In a private box, Wu Shiliang heard the voice, and a cold sneer appeared on his face.
"It seems the rumors are true."
An old man behind him opened his eyes at this moment and spoke slowly.
"This Medicinal Pill won't be so easy to take."
Wu Shiliang continued.
In this auction, besides several major local forces from Cangyuan City, many outsiders had come, including forces that even the Wu Family couldn't afford to offend.
And these people were surely here for these Grade Seven treasures.
Wanting to take this Medicinal Pill was no simple matter.
Under normal circumstances, he would certainly have made a move and wouldn't have let them take the Medicinal Pill so easily.
But the situation was different now; they had something else they wanted and wouldn't focus their attention on this seven-turn return-to-heaven pill.
To say they didn't want this seven-turn return-to-heaven pill would definitely be a lie; he too wished he could acquire all these Grade Seven treasures.
But alas, the Wu Family's strength was indeed limited, so he could only fix his gaze on one specific item.
The price of the seven-turn return-to-heaven pill continued to rise.
One thousand one hundred.
One thousand two hundred.
One thousand five hundred.
As the price kept climbing, the number of forces bidding gradually decreased.
"The seven-turn return-to-heaven pill... I wonder which Great Master's handiwork this is."
In a private box on the fifth floor, a beautiful young girl looked at the seven-turn return-to-heaven pill with a curious expression.
"I don't know."
Liu Lingyun shook his head.
"Junior Martial Uncle, should we bid for this Medicinal Pill to use as a reference? A seven-turn return-to-heaven pill, and a High Grade one at that."
Jiang Sixuan then looked at an old man beside them and spoke to him.
A Grade Seven High Grade return-to-heaven pill... even in their Medicine Cauldron Sect, there was only one person capable of refining it.
