"This is the taste of Blood Restoration Pill." The old man put on white gloves, carefully poured out a pill, and examined it with a magnifying glass.

"How can this be!" The old man's face slightly changed.

Then, the old man put the Blood Restoration Pill near his nose and smelled it, showing a look of surprise.

"Is this a Blood Restoration Pill?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, it is indeed a Blood Restoration Pill. Sir, what do you think it's worth?"

The old man smiled and said: "Your Blood Restoration Pill is of good quality, but I still need to test it further."

Saying so, the old man placed the Blood Restoration Pill into a machine. When the test results appeared on the screen, his breath grew a bit rapid.

"It's actually a top-grade Blood Restoration Pill."

The effects and quality of top-grade pills are closely related.

A low-quality Blood Restoration Pill can restore one-fifth of the blood energy, a medium-quality one can restore one-third, a high-quality one can restore two-thirds, and a top-grade one can restore even a hundred percent.

It can be said that top-grade Blood Restoration Pills are very marketable, as everyone attending the auction comes from underground factions, and they often live with their lives on the line. Hence, a top-grade Blood Restoration Pill is a lifesaver and would surely be pursued by major factions once it appears in the auction.

"Most of the Blood Restoration Pills circulating in the market are of medium quality, valued at forty to fifty thousand. High-quality ones are rare, valued roughly at a hundred thousand, but top-grade Blood Restoration Pills are almost impossible to see. The last auction even set an opening price of eighty thousand."

"Oh, so valuable?" Lin Chen was momentarily stunned.

"How about this, I estimate this Blood Restoration Pill at eighty thousand for you." The old man said with a smile.

"Hmm, I still have nine pills here, a total of ten." Lin Chen said calmly.

"What? You have ten pills! And all of this quality?" The old man was instantly shocked.

You must know that the old man had only seen three top-grade Blood Restoration Pills in his long life, but this young man unexpectedly presented ten at once.

"Yes!" Lin Chen said as he opened several more medicine bottles.

The old man tested the other Blood Restoration Pills, and when he saw the results, even his hands were a bit trembling.

"Oh my God, it's really ten top-grade Blood Restoration Pills."

Lin Chen smiled lightly: "Sir, how do you think these ten Blood Restoration Pills should be auctioned off?"

The old man thought for a moment: "Well, if these ten Blood Restoration Pills are auctioned individually, their value will surely be diluted. It would be better to auction all ten together, with a starting price of eight million. How does that sound?"

"Eight million?" Lin Chen was momentarily stunned.

This was far beyond his expectations.

The old man thought Lin Chen was dissatisfied and quickly said: "Rest assured, sir, this is just the starting price. Major factions will increase the bid. From my experience, the final value will surely exceed ten million."

"Alright, then eight million." Lin Chen nodded and said.

"By the way, sir, take a look at this as well." Saying so, Lin Chen handed another pill to the old man.

"Oh, you have more pills?" The old man was momentarily stunned and poured the pill out of the bottle.

Seeing the pill pattern made the old man freeze, considering it appeared to be another pill of high grade.

After observing with a magnifying glass for a moment, and then smelling the pill for a while, his expression turned more serious, even his beard began to tremble.

"Is this a God Transforming Pill?"

"Yes, it's indeed a God Transforming Pill," Lin Chen said with a smile.

The old man felt his heart speed up; God Transforming Pills are highly sought after in the market.

After all, the True God Realm is a threshold for martial artists, and many are stuck at the Cloud Sea Realm. Having a God Transforming Pill could guarantee their promotion to the True God Realm.

However, the chances of acquiring a God Transforming Pill are very low; it's hard to see one even in several years.

What's more surprising is that from the pill pattern, this God Transforming Pill seems to be of top grade.

The old man placed the God Transforming Pill into the testing machine and saw the results that appeared; he felt as if in a dream.

"It's truly genuine, it's actually a top-grade God Transforming Pill." The old man felt his heart about to explode.

He had been in the treasure appraisal room for decades, and the number of top-grade pills he saw today surpassed what he'd seen in his entire life.

You must know that a top-grade God Transforming Pill can elevate a martial artist from the Cloud Sea Realm directly to mid-level True God Realm.

"What's this worth?" Lin Chen asked.

The old man thought for a moment: "Conservatively, this should be around three million as a starting bid. But if factions compete, the price will surely double."

"Oh, alright, I have three pills here." Lin Chen said, handing over two more pills to the old man.

The old man saw the other two pills, and his hands trembled because he felt that these two were also top-grade pills.

After testing, sure enough, these two were still top-grade pills.

The old man looked at Lin Chen in shock. Today was truly unbelievable; who was this young man, and how could he have so many top-grade pills?

"Sir, the starting bid for these three pills is set at three million, but the final auction price would be at least fifteen million," the old man smacked his lips and said.

"Fifteen million?" Lin Chen was also secretly astounded upon hearing it.

It seems refining pills really is a hugely profitable business; with just twenty thousand in costs, it created a value of fifteen million.

However, Lin Chen also knew it was all based on Xiaoshuai's assistance.

Top-grade pills require perfectly balanced proportions and timing to appear, hence their preciousness.

But with Lin Chen having Xiaoshuai, it's almost like a cheat code, making it exceedingly easy to refine top-grade pills.

"Sir? Your items have reached the VIP level. The auction tonight will officially begin, please attend. Here is your VIP card." Saying so, the old man respectfully handed a golden card to Lin Chen with both hands.

"By the way, can I bring a few friends with me inside?" Lin Chen asked.

"You have your own private box, of course, you can bring friends inside. Moreover, this gold card includes one million Baijiao coins for your immediate use." The old man said with a smile.

"Alright, thank you, sir," Lin Chen said politely.

"It's I who should thank you for allowing me to see so many top-grade pills in my lifetime." The old man's attitude towards Lin Chen had changed from initial disdain to utmost respect.

"Sir, I'll take my leave now." Saying so, Lin Chen stood up and left.

The stone door closed, and the old man carefully stored the top-grade pills, murmuring: "To have so many top-grade pills at such a young age, could this person be from that place?"

At this moment, a stone door beside the old man opened, and a graceful figure emerged: "Regardless of where this person comes from, the City Lord will surely be interested in this young man. It seems today's auction will be interesting."
