CHAPTER 26: CHAPTER 26: THIS IS THE ITEM

"I bid three hundred and fifty thousand crystal stones!"

"I bid one hundred and forty thousand crystal stones!"

"Five hundred thousand crystal stones!"

As Tianjizi’s voice just fell, the bidding prices came like a storm, and the spacious hall was utterly boiling.

Seeing Ling Qiushui remain indifferent, Gu Chenfeng couldn’t help but ask, "Uncle Qiushui, does our Divine Sect not have any disciples with Wind Attribute Spiritual Power?"

"No." Ling Qiushui slightly shook her head and chuckled, "Having two Ice Attribute disciples in the Divine Sect is already a miracle."

"A miracle?" Gu Chenfeng was dumbfounded.

Just having two Ice Attribute disciples is already a miracle, which left him wondering how rare it is for someone to have a Special Attribute.

Ling Qiushui took a sip of tea and continued, "Although Wind Attribute Cultivation Technique is rare and precious, it is of no use to our Divine Sect, so there’s no need to waste crystal stones."

"Their frenzy bidding is not because they possess Wind Attribute; rather, they plan to resell it to major sects for a huge profit. There’s never a shortage of such people at auctions."

"I see." Gu Chenfeng nodded.

"Eight hundred thousand crystal stones!" A private box on the second floor instantly raised the price by three hundred thousand crystal stones.

As the voice came from a second-floor private box, the hall instantly fell silent.

No one from other second-floor private boxes or third-floor boxes dared to bid.

Two minutes later.

Tianjizi then chuckled, "Eight hundred thousand once! Eight hundred thousand twice! Sold!"

Tianjizi waved his hand, and the scroll flew towards the private box of the bidder.

The first item was concluded, and the second item flashed in.

A transparent jade bottle with striking blood inside, emanating a powerful and turbulent aura.

Tianjizi smiled happily and said, "I believe everyone recognizes this item, the Essence Blood of the Tier Six Demon Beast, Nine Nether Fire-Swallowing Python. This Essence Blood can help cultivators in the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage enhance their cultivation and refine their physical body, with strong effects."

"It’s the Essence Blood of the Nine Nether Fire-Swallowing Python!"

"With this treasure refining the body, it becomes possible to fight cross-tier when sufficiently powerful!"

"Elder Tianjizi, auction quickly!"

The crowd once again boiled over with eagerness for the auction.

Tianjizi joyfully announced, "Fifty thousand crystal stones!"

"Sixty thousand crystal stones!"

"Eighty thousand crystal stones!"

"One hundred thousand crystal stones!"

The crowd bid eagerly, with several people in the second-floor private boxes participating as well, showing the preciousness of the Nine Nether Fire-Swallowing Python’s Essence Blood.

"One hundred thousand crystal stones... Is this Essence Blood really so expensive?" Hearing this astronomical figure, Gu Chenfeng was dumbfounded.

Throughout his life, Gu Chenfeng never had more than five hundred crystal stones! One hundred thousand was genuinely an astronomical number to him.

Seeing Gu Chenfeng’s immense shock, Ling Qiushui couldn’t help but laugh and explain, "The Nine Nether Fire-Swallowing Python is a Tier Six Demon Beast, its strength equivalent to the Soul Emergence Stage, exceedingly formidable. Obtaining its Essence Blood is not easy, it’s no exaggeration to say it’s exchanged with one’s life."

"Moreover, its Essence Blood is of Fire Attribute, containing very strong power; even cultivators with different attributes can cultivate with it. The main point is that cultivators in the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage can use it, and it can also refine the physical body, naturally making it rather expensive."

"Such powerful Essence Blood should be suitable for Uncle’s cultivation; why not bid?" Gu Chenfeng asked Ling Qiushui.

"What physical body refining would I, a woman, do?" Ling Qiushui rolled her eyes.

"Uh... seems so..." Gu Chenfeng awkwardly chuckled.

After several minutes of fierce bidding.

Finally, it was won for one hundred and eighty thousand crystal stones.

The successful bidder was Donghuang War.

Donghuang War bids, no one dared to raise the price.

The subsequent treasures similarly stirred the whole venue, with bidders going wild.

What shocked Gu Chenfeng the most was a three-thousand-year-old herb valued at three million crystal stones.

Is this meant for refining an Immortal Pill?

On the auction stage.

The cheerful Tianjizi took out the seventh treasure, a golden scroll.

Tianjizi joyfully announced, "Next, this treasure is one that Alchemists will surely love."

At this, Ling Qiushui’s expression shook, and her beautiful eyes instantly gleamed.

Beside her, Gu Chenfeng naturally noticed Ling Qiushui’s gaze and thought silently, "Uncle must have come for this treasure, surely it’s something costly."

Ling Qiushui agreed to attend the auction precisely because she was after this treasure.

The Alchemists present were also incredibly excited and expectant at this moment.

Tianjizi joyfully announced, "This item is a Sixth Grade Pill Formula, named Cyan Glaze Red Fire Pill. This pill does not enhance cultivation; its effect is to help Alchemists strengthen True Fire, offering immense benefits to Alchemists."

"Additionally, it comes with the Calm Heart Pill formula. As its name suggests, Calm Heart Pill aids one in calming the heart for cultivation, bringing significant benefits."

"I’ve been waiting for this item!" An elderly man eagerly exclaimed, "Elder Tianjizi, auction quickly."

A Sixth Grade Alchemist excitedly proclaimed, "Cyan Glaze Red Fire Pill not only strengthens an Alchemist’s True Fire but also helps perfect the control of True Fire. I must have this pill formula."

Tianjizi joyfully announced, "Fifty thousand crystal stones."

"I bid one hundred thousand crystal stones!" An older man called out excitedly.

"Two hundred thousand crystal stones!" A Sixth Grade Alchemist unhesitatingly bid.

"Three hundred thousand crystal stones!" A cold voice echoed from a third-floor box.

"Five hundred thousand crystal stones!" Ling Qiushui instantly raised it by two hundred thousand.

A stunning move, her bid was explosive.

The hall, initially surging like waves, suddenly calmed, and shocked gazes turned to the box where Ling Qiushui was located.

"Six hundred thousand!" A calm voice came from the third-floor box.

"Eight hundred thousand!" Ling Qiushui once again raised it by two hundred thousand.

"Ten million." The calm voice came again.

"Donghuang War!" Ling Qiushui’s delicate face darkened, her icy gaze swept towards the opposing box.

In the opposing box, Donghuang War slowly put down his teacup and chuckled, "Qiushui, I do apologize, but I fancy this item too. You know, Shenxiao Pavilion also has Sixth Grade Alchemists."

"Brother Donghuang, the highest bid wins, if you like it just bid." Laughter came from a private box.

"Twelve million!" Ling Qiushui bid with barely restrained anger.

"Fifteen million!" Donghuang War raised the bid without courtesy.

Ling Qiushui’s jade fists clenched tight, gritting her teeth in anger, she wished to rush out and fiercely beat Donghuang War.

After waiting for two minutes without hearing Ling Qiushui’s bid, Tianjizi announced, "Fifteen million once! Fifteen million twice! Sold!"

Tianjizi waved his hand, and the golden scroll flew towards the box where the Donghuang Bell was located.

Tianjizi then took out the eighth treasure, a black stone the size of a fist.

Upon seeing the black stone, Gu Chenfeng’s eyes shone with golden light, secretly thinking, "This is it!"

"What is that thing?" The crowd was puzzled.

Tianjizi joyfully announced, "This item comes from Clouds Beyond Heaven, as for what it is, I do not know, but everyone knows, items from Clouds Beyond Heaven are usually treasures."

"The starting bid for this item is also fifty thousand crystal stones!"

The entire venue went silent.
