175: Five-star elixir!

Medicinal Pills were taken out one by one, then, after being inspected by the testing personnel, they were auctioned off.

Everyone's excitement for the Medicinal Pills grew even higher; each Medicinal Pill could cause a strong fluctuation!

Among the more than a hundred Medicinal Pills auctioned earlier, the Medicinal Pill with the highest potency activation reached sixty-five percent!

At that time, six stars lit up on the testing instrument, and the seventh star was dimly lit halfway, representing half a percent.

As soon as this Medicinal Pill appeared, it instantly caused a sensation throughout the venue!

One must know that this was a Sixth-Rank Medicinal Pill! Not some low-grade Medicinal Pill.

To possess sixty-five percent potency, this was already on par with the level of some Alchemy Grandmasters; it was truly unknown which Alchemist could refine such an excellent Medicinal Pill.

If this person was still at the Sixth-Rank Alchemist stage, he must be just a step away from the Realm of an Alchemy Grandmaster!

This Sixth-Rank Advanced Medicinal Pill, which was already extremely close to a five-star Medicinal Pill, was rarely seen even among the three major auctions.

Everyone present bid one after another, unwilling to give way, and the atmosphere was exceptionally intense.

After a fierce bidding war, this Sixth-Rank Intermediate Medicinal Pill was finally auctioned off at the astronomical price of one hundred twenty billion Spirit Stones!

This had already far exceeded the Medicinal Pill's inherent value; Alchemists who bought them back wanted to study them using this Medicinal Pill.

They wanted to see if they could advance further in the Dao of Alchemy! Even if it was just a one percent increase in purity, it would be worth it!

Therefore, this Medicinal Pill was bought by a Sixth-Rank Alchemist who gritted his teeth.

Before an Alchemist is promoted to an Alchemy Grandmaster, he basically cannot save any resources.

In fact, a large number of Alchemists could only barely maintain their daily Alchemy consumption by signing unequal treaties with various major forces.

Their progress was built on the consumption of a large number of Spirit Stones, although they could recover their capital by selling some Medicinal Pills.

However, the success rate of Alchemy itself was not very high, not to mention the cost of Alchemy was extremely terrifying.

For a Sixth-Rank Medicinal Pill, even the cheapest set of medicinal ingredients was an astronomical price of billions of Spirit Stones!

Therefore, this Alchemist had already gone bankrupt just to bid for this sixty-five percent potency Medicinal Pill!

However, when he finally secured the bid, a thrilled smile appeared on his face.

If he could gain some inspiration from this Medicinal Pill, he would certainly be able to advance further on the path of Alchemy!

Time was slowly passing, and the atmosphere of the auction house reached one climax after another; Shi Yi gradually became restless below the stage.

Her eyes were fixed on the host on the stage.

Why hadn't Lu Hao's Medicinal Pill for her been brought out yet? Could it be that it wasn't put up for auction?

That shouldn't be the case, right? How could something given by the Master be ordinary?

Hurry up, hurry up, quickly bring it out for auction...

Finally, after one hundred eighty-two Medicinal Pills were auctioned off, Shi Yi finally waited for Lu Hao's Medicinal Pill!

She instantly straightened her body, her eyes fixed motionless on the two Medicinal Pills in the host's hand.

Her excited and anxious demeanor made it seem as if the two Medicinal Pills on the stage were refined by her.

The host introduced them as usual:

“These are two Medicinal Pills from the same furnace, Sixth-Rank Advanced Medicinal Pills, Nine Heavens Spirit Convergence Pill. I won't elaborate too much on their potency; I believe everyone is clear. Next, let's see how much of the Medicinal Pill's potency has been activated.”

As soon as his voice fell, two middle-aged men stepped forward and, as before, scraped a trace of powder with an instrument.

Everyone's expressions didn't change much; this was just a very conventional Medicinal Pill.

As for the potency, they didn't have too much expectation; there had already been a sixty-five percent Medicinal Pill before, could this Medicinal Pill still surpass the previous one?

The probability was too, too low...

The two middle-aged men calmly stared at the testing instrument, as if doing something very ordinary.

But the next moment, their eyes were overwhelmed by extreme shock!

In their gaze, the testing instrument in their hands suddenly burst forth with dazzling golden light!

Then, the stars on the instrument's wall lit up one after another!

Six stars!

Seven stars!!

Eight stars!!!

The entire auction house was silent, all staring dumbfounded at the instrument in the hands of the two people in the center of the auction hall.

They could hardly believe their eyes, this... this was actually a Medicinal Pill with eighty percent potency?!!!

But after eight stars lit up, the instrument continued to emit golden light.

Finally, someone murmured:

“Wh-… what?!!! Eighty percent potency is not the limit yet?!”

“Could it be that this Medicinal Pill is going to reach ninety percent?!!! How is this possible!! Even if an Alchemy Great Grandmaster makes a move, he might not be able to refine a ninety percent Medicinal Pill!”

“Is it possible that this is a Medicinal Pill jointly refined by Alchemy Great Grandmasters?”

“Absolutely impossible! Alchemy Great Grandmasters are extremely rare throughout Danling State; they are extremely arrogant, how could they idly join forces to refine a Sixth-Rank Medicinal Pill?”

“Moreover, no Alchemy Great Grandmaster has ever allowed the Medicinal Pills he refined to flow into an auction; they attach extreme importance to their Dao of Alchemy, how could they casually let Medicinal Pills flow out?”

“I estimate eighty-five percent is already the limit, impossible, absolutely impossible to be ninety percent!”

“Look quickly!!!”

Exclamations came from the auction seats.

Although everyone kept speaking, their eyes were still fixed on the testing instrument.

They all had an extremely absurd thought in their hearts.

“Could this Medicinal Pill really Breakthrough to ninety percent potency?!!!”

Where everyone's gaze converged, the testing instrument was still continuously emitting golden light, accompanied by slight vibrations.

The middle-aged man holding the instrument even had slightly trembling hands.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, the instrument suddenly emitted a burst of golden light far exceeding the previous ones, instantly illuminating the entire auction hall!

After a while, the golden light faded, and everyone concentrated their gaze.

They saw that on the instrument, the ninth star had indeed lit up!

At this moment, Yunjian Collection completely boiled over! The sky-high clamor seemed to want to overturn the roof of this place!

All the Alchemists present directly had their cultivation Qi riot within them, as if they were out of control.

If it weren't for the last shred of sanity they still possessed, these Alchemists would have rushed forward to snatch these two Heaven-Defying Medicinal Pills!

These two five-star Medicinal Pills had an extremely fatal attraction for Sixth-Rank and even Seventh-Rank Alchemists! Even for Alchemy Great Grandmasters, they held an irresistible temptation.

Even Cultivators who did not cultivate the Dao of Alchemy were moved one after another, wanting to buy them back as a Legacy treasure for their Family.

“This... this is a miracle!!! I actually saw a five-star Advanced Medicinal Pill in my lifetime!!!”

“Who on earth refined this Medicinal Pill?! This person must be someone with Heaven-Defying Alchemy cultivation! If I could get to know this person, that would be great...”

“Look quickly, there seems to be a mark on the Medicinal Pill!”
