Chapter 245 Five Qi Refining Pill

The piece of black gold fine iron was finally bought by the guest of VIP Room No. 2. However, during the auction, Wu Yan accidentally discovered that the guest of VIP Room No. 2 had always been very low-key in bidding, and they always bid up by one hundred. But later, Zhu Junhao in VIP Room No. 3 suddenly joined the bidding for some reason, and raised the price by two thousand spiritual stones, which resulted in an instant silence. It seemed that the guest of VIP Room No. 2 had already planned to give up. Unexpectedly, just when Bujia was about to announce that the black gold fine iron belonged to the guest of VIP Room No. 3, the guest of VIP Room No. 2 suddenly changed and bid again, and finally bought the piece of black gold fine iron at a sky-high price twice that of Zhu Junhao.

This was just a small episode, but Wu Yan looked at VIP Room No. 2 in confusion, because the voices of the two bidders in it were obviously not the same person, and he seemed to feel that the two voices sounded very familiar.

In the subsequent bidding, a very strange scene appeared in the auction house. Whenever VIP Room No. 3 bid to buy something, VIP Room No. 2 would definitely intervene, and often offer a high price, as if deliberately making things difficult for the guests in VIP Room No. 3. Vice versa, as long as VIP Room No. 2 showed interest in an item, Zhu Junhao in VIP Room No. 3 would definitely raise the price.

Although this situation is rare in the auction house, it is not uncommon. Everyone seemed to see that the guests in VIP Room No. 2 must know the guests in VIP Room No. 3, and they should be a pair of enemies. In this way, other people don't want to get involved in such grievances for no reason, so whenever the prices in these two places start, although other people are tempted, no one will bid rashly.

Those who can come here to participate in the auction must have some background in the world of cultivation. They all know that there has always been an unwritten rule in the auction house of Tianxiang Pavilion. The first four VIP rooms will never be easily booked out. Anyone who can enter the first four VIP rooms must be a person of great background.

Although, from beginning to end, no one has ever heard the price of the VIP room No. 1, and it is unknown whether there is anyone in it, but the guests in the other three VIP rooms are probably also people of great background. Although others may not be afraid of them, no one wants to cause trouble for themselves when it is unnecessary.

After the three items on the table in front of Bujia were auctioned off, he left the auction house directly and went up to the third floor. The next three Yuanying-stage elders, one of whom was called Fang Xuankong, was responsible for purchasing and auctioning spiritual objects such as spiritual insects and spiritual beasts. However, he only auctioned one item this time, which was also purchased from the Zhenxie Valley. This item was an egg of the ancient strange beast "Xuanhuowu". According to Fang Xuankong, this egg had been buried deep underground for nearly ten thousand years. Although there were still signs of life inside it, he was not sure whether it could hatch successfully. This egg was eventually bought by Zhu Junhao, but because of the high prices of the guests in the No. 2 VIP room, he spent an extremely high price to get it.

Another Yuanying-stage elder named Tan Ji was responsible for purchasing and auctioning puppets and talismans in Tianxiang Pavilion. This time, the two items he took out for auction also attracted a lot of attention.

The first item was a tiger puppet with the strength equivalent to that of a cultivator in the early stage of the Jindan period. As soon as this item came out, it was immediately snatched by many cultivators. You know, such a powerful puppet is very useful. Whether it is used as a defensive substitute or for your beloved juniors, it is a very good amulet.

The second item is a beast soul talisman that is said to be made by ancient monks. The material used for this talisman is the skin of a high-level monster, and the beast soul sealed in it is equivalent to the power of a cultivator in the Jindan stage. This beast soul talisman was also snatched.

When Wu Yan saw this beast skin beast soul talisman, he thought of the black-haired demon wolf beast soul talisman that Master Jin gave him. It was a pity that the black-haired demon wolf sealed in this talisman took over the body of Tan Lang's clone, causing Wu Yan's beast soul talisman to become waste. It really made Wu Yan upset for a long time.

The tiger beast puppet and the beast soul talisman were eventually bought by the guest in VIP Room No. 2. However, because he had previously bid up the price of the items purchased by the guest in VIP Room No. 3, he also paid a high price when he bought these two items.

After the elder Tan Ji auctioned off the two items, he, like the previous two elders, directly collected the storage bag containing the spirit stones, left the auction house without saying a word, and went up to the third floor.

Wu Yan saw that the three Yuanying elders had finished bidding and left, and only one Yuanying Buddhist elder was left at the scene. He thought that the next one should be the one who specializes in purchasing and auctioning elixirs and spiritual medicines. He couldn't help but feel nervous.

This is indeed the case. This Yuanying elder is a Buddhist monk, and his Dharma name is Master Zhihai. It is said that he is the famous alchemy master of Tianxiang Pavilion. The elixir he refines has always been recognized as a highly sought-after top-grade elixir in the Great Zhou Xiuxian world.

Zen Master Zhihai put his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name, then he uncovered the golden silk cassock covering the table.

On it, there were three boxes of different sizes. A large wooden box, a large jade box, and finally a small jade box. On these three boxes of different materials, there were talismans to prevent the leakage of spiritual energy. Presumably, they should contain spiritual herbs, spiritual medicines, and elixirs.

"Amitabha! Fellow Taoists, please come. I will auction three items today. The first one is the magic pill in this jade box. This pill was made by me personally, and it took me 9981 days to refine it. It is a five-qi nourishing pill." When Zen Master Zhihai talked about this pill, his face was quite proud and complacent.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the VIP rooms around him started to talk. This situation had never happened when the three elders auctioned before.

"Five-qi nourishing pill? Hiss! Is there really someone in this world who can refine this kind of magical pill?" Wu Yan couldn't help but take a breath, and looked at the smallest jade box placed in front of the old monk in the middle in shock.

Seeing Wu Yan finally showing a surprised expression, Zhu Junyu beside him couldn't help but cheer up and asked with a smile: "Brother Wu, do you know the origin of this pill? Is it very powerful?"

"Of course it is powerful! I think as long as it is a cultivator in the Jindan stage and Yuanying stage, I am afraid there is no one who doesn't know this pill. It is said that this pill has an extremely magical effect on condensing and increasing vital energy. It is the best pill for Jindan and Yuanying stage cultivators to improve and consolidate their realm. However, there are many kinds of materials required to refine this pill, and most of the materials required are more than a thousand years old. Moreover, the refining process of this pill is extremely complicated, and the slightest mistake will cause it to be scrapped. This Master Zhihai is indeed worthy of being a great master of alchemy. He can even refine such a magical pill!" Wu Yan looked at Master Zhihai and showed admiration for the first time.

Wu Yan secretly felt a little regretful. Although he had known the name and rumors of this elixir from some classics, he did not have the recipe of this elixir, let alone the method of refining this elixir. Therefore, he was very eager to communicate with Master Zhihai. However, he also knew that he could only think about it. What is his cultivation level, identity and status? How could he have any communication with a little cultivator like him who has no reputation?

Seeing Wu Yan staring blankly at the auction hall, Zhu Junyu suddenly put the jade talisman infused with magic power to his lips and asked the Zen Master Zhihai in the auction hall: "Senior, how do you sell this elixir?"

The discussion in the auction hall continued. Zen Master Zhihai put one hand in his sleeve and smiled with the other hand, showing a look of enjoyment for everyone's discussion. When he heard someone asking, he immediately smiled and said: "I believe you Taoist friends know the value of this elixir, so the price of this elixir may be very high. Taoist friends who want to buy it should be prepared."

This old monk said this, which was equivalent to saying nothing, and it was just deliberately whetting people's appetite. Zhu Junyu was about to speak again, but Wu Yan came back to his senses and grabbed Zhu Junyu's little hand holding the jade talisman, stopping his plan to speak again.

The spiritual light on the jade talisman disappeared. Zhu Junyu looked at Wu Yan's hand holding her, her face slightly red, and whispered: "Brother Wu, why don't you let me continue to ask him?"

"Fairy Yu, although I am very curious about this elixir, I don't mean to buy it? What I want to buy is the items in his other jade box. You can take a picture for me later. I will borrow this spiritual stone from you temporarily. I will return it to you when I have spiritual stones." Wu Yan smiled bitterly.

Zhu Junyu said, "Oh", and then realized what Wu Yan meant. She pouted and said, "Brother Wu, didn't I say that I should take pictures of whatever you want to buy? This is what I bought for you on behalf of my second brother. What's the point of borrowing or not?"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm afraid of you. Whatever you say is what it is." Wu Yan smiled bitterly again, but he was afraid that Zhu Junyu would speak again, so he grabbed her hand and didn't let go.

Zhu Junyu's little hand was held by him, and she had no intention of breaking free. She just looked at the auction hall happily, as if she had forgotten that her hand was held by Wu Yan.

Zhu Junyu didn't ask, but it didn't mean that others didn't ask. Someone immediately followed Master Zhihai's words and asked him: "Senior, what is the reserve price of this Five Qi Pei Yuan Pill? You have to quote a price so that we can bid, right?"

"The starting price of this Five Qi Pei Yuan Pill is 15,000 spiritual stones. Daoists who want to buy it can bid." Master Zhihai glanced around with a smile, and then he said the auction reserve price of this pill.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the whole auction hall suddenly became noisy.

"I'll offer 16,000! I want this Five Qi Pei Yuan Pill!"

"I'll offer 17,000. You want to buy such a spiritual pill for 16,000. It's a good idea!"
