Chapter 223: The Last Demon Fire Fragment Map! The Bodhi Ancient Tree is About to Appear!

Along with one item after another that was extremely rare in the outside world being successfully traded.

The atmosphere inside the great hall was also stirred up to be much more heated by these things.

"Next, we begin the auction for the second-to-last item of this trade fair..."

Baoshan Laoren smiled, his palm gently clenching in front of him, and a yellowed, ancient piece of parchment appeared in his hand.

"Very good, very good; this thing has appeared here without any surprises. The four Demon Fire Fragment Maps can finally be gathered together..."

The moment this ancient piece of parchment appeared, Gu Fei nodded to himself.

Gu Fei was already extremely, extremely familiar with this Fragmented Map, having waited for many years.

Previously, Gu Fei had still been worried that his activities in the Central Plains over these years would bring about some butterfly effect, but now it seemed he had clearly been overthinking it; the continent was so vast, and the places he had walked were only a small portion.

"Hehe, after our research, we have reached the final conclusion that this Fragmented Map is related to the legendary Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame..."

Baoshan Laoren introduced the Fragmented Map.

It attracted the attention of everyone present.

The Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, this was an Exotic Fire ranked third on the Exotic Flame Ranking.

For this kind of Exotic Fire that only existed in legends, most of the people sitting here were very clear about how terrifying its power was.

That was a power that could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth.

In the great hall, one heated gaze after another stared tightly at that Fragmented Map.

Although this Fragmented Map was not the true Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame itself.

But if one were to obtain it.

Then there would be a chance to know some information related to the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame.

And if one could follow the vine to find the melon.

And luckily get their hands on the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, the benefits would simply be endless.

"Hehe, the owner of this Fragmented Map wants to use it to exchange for some Pills..."

Baoshan Laoren smiled slightly, then his gaze swept across the entire venue and said: "Now, I announce, the bidding begins; everyone, please."

In the great hall, there were clearly quite a few people interested in this Fragmented Map.

Immediately, an old and hoarse voice rang out.

"Three Eight-Rank Medicinal Pills with Six-Colored Pill Lightning."

"Four Eight-Rank Medicinal Pills with Six-Colored Pill Lightning."

"Five..."

In the great hall, in less than a short two minutes, one bidding voice after another suddenly caused the atmosphere to become heated.

On Gu Fei's side, he did not bid for the time being.

The auction price climbed rapidly under the shouts of those who refused to give way to one another.

"Five Eight-Rank Medicinal Pills with Seven-Colored Pill Lightning."

A moment later, a cold shout with a slightly fiery aura suddenly rang out.

This price had already caused many people to begin to retreat; they were no longer qualified to continue.

"One Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill with Eight-Colored Pill Lightning!"

At this moment, Gu Fei made a tentative bid.

Once these words fell, low murmurs also rang out within the great hall.

"Three..."

However, the other party's increase was even more fierce.

They tripled it all at once.

The person who made the bid was a thin, gaunt figure wearing a cloak.

Under the cloak, a sinister gaze shot toward Gu Fei's side like a sharp arrow.

It seemed he wanted to rely on his powerful strength to force Gu Fei to stop increasing the bid.

Gu Fei casually flicked his sleeve, and that pressure was easily neutralized. "Eight."

Gu Fei bid again.

"Hehe, this friend has bid eight Pills with Eight-Colored Pill Lightning; is there anyone else who wants to bid?" Baoshan Laoren said with a smile.

Clearly, this kind of bid had already reached a level that many people in the great hall looked up to, and everyone felt it would not go any higher.

"One Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill with Nine-Colored Pill Lightning; if you can still offer a price higher than this, then this Fragmented Map belongs to you!"

That thin, black-robed man said coldly.

"This guy is really crazy!"

Seeing that this black-robed man had actually taken out a Pill of the Nine-Colored Pill Lightning level, everyone present gasped softly and shook their heads inwardly.

"That guy is trying to fight to the death with my husband, actually bidding so high!"

Cai'er's expression was somewhat cold; at this moment, she even wanted to go and snatch the Fragmented Map directly.

"Hehe, if you want to take it, then take it!"

Gu Fei smiled and did not continue to increase the bid; he already had a plan in his heart.

A Nine-Colored Pill Lightning Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill—how good it would be to save it for the people around him to eat; why waste it at this kind of auction? In any case, that black-robed man was already a dead man in Gu Fei's heart.

"Hehe..."

The thin, black-robed man let out a low, strange laugh when he saw Gu Fei stop bidding.

Then, he turned his gaze toward Baoshan Laoren in the center of the great hall, waved his palm, and a small, snow-white rabbit appeared in his hand.

As soon as this rabbit appeared, a rich medicinal fragrance permeated the place.

Stroking the small rabbit with his palm, the thin, black-robed man also felt a bit of heartache.

However, in the end, he still chose to trade.

"My friend, the trade is complete; this Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame Fragmented Map is yours..."

Baoshan Laoren quickly completed the trade.

"Hehe, the final item of our Space Auction this time is not an object, but a piece of intelligence!"

"Although this intelligence will likely sweep across the Central Plains before long, we should be the first to have this news here!"

When Baoshan Laoren said this, Gu Fei had already lost interest in this auction.

Because the matter Baoshan Laoren was about to speak of was not a secret to Gu Fei.

"The legendary Bodhi Ancient Tree, which can allow a person to become a Saint on the spot, has appeared again after ten thousand years..."

"Bodhi Ancient Tree?"

Baoshan Laoren's words were undoubtedly like a bomb, instantly causing the entire great hall to erupt into an uproar.

If one were to rank the natural treasures on the Dou Qi Continent, the Bodhi Ancient Tree would certainly be able to enter the top three!

In some ancient texts, the Bodhi Ancient Tree is also known as the Wisdom Reincarnation Tree.

This tree grows one ring every thousand years, and only when it possesses one hundred rings does it reach maturity.

Such a long span of time is enough for time to corrode anything, yet the Bodhi Ancient Tree exists outside of time; it can almost be considered one of the most ancient species on the continent...

According to the records in some ancient texts, it seems that only one Bodhi Ancient Tree grows in this world; it possesses wisdom, and after each appearance, it hides deep within the earth, where no one can find it.

However, only when the time for its next appearance arrives will it appear in the world once again.

Bodhi Ancient Tree, become a Saint on the spot! This is not an empty claim.

Within the Bodhi Ancient Tree lies the Bodhi Heart; those who obtain it will have their hearts transformed into Bodhi, and becoming a Saint is merely a matter of lifting a hand.

This near-godlike effect is enough to make everyone go crazy for it.

Whoever can obtain this Bodhi Heart possesses a pass to enter the Dou Sheng realm and join the peak level of this world! Moreover, even excluding the Bodhi Heart, even the slightly inferior Bodhi Seed can greatly increase the success rate of advancing to Dou Sheng.

Although not as terrifying as the Bodhi Heart, for some at Dou Zun Peak, it also possesses an irresistible power of temptation.

Combining all these factors, the attraction of the Bodhi Ancient Tree to those top-tier powerhouses has reached an almost insane level.

One can imagine how much of a commotion will be stirred up in the Central Plains once this news spreads.
