Chapter 284
As for Wang Ming'an's words, Lord Xingze paid them no mind, simply speaking coldly to place a bid:
"One hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones."
Seeing Lord Xingze raise the price of the Crimson Dragon Pill directly to one hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones, Wang Ming'an fell silent at once.
As the provincial capital of Xingluo Province, Xingluo City is the foremost power in Xingluo Province on the surface.
Its reserves of sixth-grade spirit mines might not match the Treasure Pavilion's, but they are certainly not few.
If Xingluo City participated in the bidding, it would be impossible for the Treasure Pavilion to purchase all the sixth-grade supreme treasures.
Therefore, a choice must be made.
After weighing the matter for a moment, Wang Ming'an ultimately abandoned the bidding for the Crimson Dragon Pill.
Facing this sky-high price, even the Treasure Pavilion gave up, let alone other Soul Transformation-level powers.
"Starting price, thirty thousand supreme spirit stones."
Just when the sect faced the crisis of having no successors, it could use the Wheel-Turning Pill to restore a lifetime of glory for the sect.
Lord Xingze was not interested in the Wheel-Turning Pill, so he did not participate in the bidding this time.
After the Crimson Dragon Pill was successfully sold, Ye Qingxuan took out another bottle of pills:
"The forty-second item, a sixth-grade supreme Wheel-Turning Pill."
The final bidder was Wang Ming'an, the Second Supreme Elder of the Treasure Pavilion.
"One hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones once, one hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones twice, one hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones thrice, sold!"
For the various powers in the hall, the Wheel-Turning Pill was not without value.
"Sixty-five thousand supreme spirit stones once, sixty-five thousand supreme spirit stones twice, sixty-five thousand supreme spirit stones thrice, sold!"
One hundred and twenty thousand supreme spirit stones, converted into high-grade spirit stones, amounts to twelve million high-grade spirit stones.
Hearing the effects of the Wheel-Turning Pill, the crowd in the hall began to discuss it fervently.
"Forty thousand supreme spirit stones."
Its sole use.
Seeing others stop bidding, Ye Qingxuan forcibly suppressed the laughter in his heart and spoke calmly:
"The only drawback is that for a cultivator who inherits Soul Transformation realm cultivation, their cultivation will not advance an inch in the future."
Such a pill offers no benefit whatsoever to the Soul Transformation cultivator themselves.
"Forty-five thousand supreme spirit stones."
"Sixty-five thousand supreme spirit stones."
"The Wheel-Turning Pill is crafted from the sixth-grade heavenly treasure Wheel-Turning Fruit, supplemented by dozens of precious spiritual herbs."
In short, Ye Qingxuan made a huge profit this time.
"With the aid of the Wheel-Turning Pill, a Soul Transformation cultivator can transfer their entire cultivation base to a Nascent Soul cultivator."
Thus, after a moment of discussion, everyone began to bid competitively:
"Thirty-five thousand supreme spirit stones."
Without Xingluo City's intervention, with the Treasure Pavilion's foundation, securing the Wheel-Turning Pill was a trivial matter.
Ultimately, this sixth-grade supreme Wheel-Turning Pill was successfully acquired by the Treasure Pavilion for sixty-five thousand supreme spirit stones.
After the Wheel-Turning Pill was auctioned off.
With a thought, Ye Qingxuan caused three talismans surrounded by thunder to appear on the stone platform before him:
"The forty-third item, three sixth-grade supreme offensive talismans: Thunderfall Talismans. Starting price: twenty-five thousand supreme spirit stones."
"Thirty thousand supreme spirit stones."
"Thirty-three thousand supreme spirit stones."
"Thirty-five thousand supreme spirit stones."
Watching the wealthy crowd bidding fiercely, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Qingxuan's lips.
The starting prices he set were partly based on the selling prices of these items within the Xuantian Sect.
But for most items, such as the various pills auctioned previously, the set starting prices were far higher than the selling prices within the Xuantian Sect.
As long as they were successfully auctioned, he would make a guaranteed profit with no loss.
Compared to the last Dongxuan Auction, this Dongxuan Auction was attended by Soul Transformation-level powers from Xingluo Province.
Facing sixth-grade treasures, the more Soul Transformation experts attending the Dongxuan Auction, the fiercer the competition between them would be.
Xingluo Province is vast with a sparse population; the number of cultivators within it is far fewer than the major provinces in the five regions of the Earthly Mystery Realm.
Furthermore, the proficiency in the four arts of cultivation in Xingluo Province lags behind, making sixth-grade artificers rare.
Therefore, among the various powers, the stored sixth-grade spirit mines are not few.
This is the reason these powers have the confidence to compete so lavishly.
In their view, letting those sixth-grade spirit materials sit idle in storage was a waste; it was better to exchange them for useful treasures at this opportunity.
However, no matter how much sixth-grade spirit material other powers stored, none could match the Treasure Pavilion.
Moreover, the items currently being auctioned were not worth these powers risking everything by spending all their sixth-grade spirit materials.
And sixth-grade supreme talismans held little value for Lord Xingze, who had already reached the peak of the Soul Transformation realm.
So he did not compete with the Treasure Pavilion.
Ultimately, the bidding for these Thunderfall Talismans, without Lord Xingze's participation,
was successfully won by the Treasure Pavilion for eighty thousand supreme spirit stones.
After the Thunderfall Talismans were successfully auctioned.
Ye Qingxuan auctioned three more sixth-grade supreme defensive talismans: Golden Shield Talismans.
Undoubtedly, these three sixth-grade supreme Golden Shield Talismans were once again successfully purchased by the Treasure Pavilion for ninety thousand supreme spirit stones.
However, the Treasure Pavilion having consecutively sold three top-grade sixth-tier treasures had clearly provoked widespread anger.
Otherwise, the prices of these three top-grade Golden Shield Talismans would not have been driven up to ninety thousand top-grade spirit stones.
Facing the angry stares of the crowd, Wang Mian'an merely remained silent and said nothing more.
Even he would not dare to continue provoking others while they were dissatisfied.
Thus, he could only use silence to reduce the crowd's displeasure.
Ye Qingxuan ignored the crowd's minor grievances. Another dragon-patterned golden shield appeared on the stone platform:
"The forty-fifth item for auction: the top-grade magic treasure, Dragon Pattern Shield."
"The Dragon Pattern Shield is forged from the scales of a peak sixth-tier single-horned water dragon, possessing a natural suppression effect against demonic beasts below the peak sixth-tier realm."
"The starting price is thirty thousand top-grade spirit stones."
"Thirty thousand top-grade spirit stones."
"Forty thousand top-grade spirit stones."
"One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones."
The final bidder was Xing Zejun.
The Xingluo City lineage, cultivated over many years, occasionally produced peak sixth-tier artifact refiners, so he himself did not lack top-grade magic treasures.
However, magic treasures of the top-grade magic treasure level could significantly enhance the strength of experts at the peak of the Soul Transformation realm.
For Xing Zejun, the more top-grade magic treasures, the better.
If conditions allowed, storing an extra set of top-grade magic treasures was a precaution against future needs; there was nothing wrong with that.
Seeing that the bidder was Xing Zejun, and with a bid of one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, even for a top-grade magic treasure, this was considered an astronomical price.
Therefore, the experts from other factions stopped bidding, unwilling to proceed further.
Even Wang Mian'an, with his mouth slightly open, hesitated for a moment before also stopping his bid.
He had already aroused the displeasure of other factions.
If he further offended the Lord of Xingluo City, it would not be a good thing for the Treasure Pavilion.
Although the Treasure Pavilion did not sell top-grade magic treasures to the public, it did not mean the Pavilion itself lacked them.
After all, magic treasures, as long as they are not damaged, can be passed down indefinitely.
They are not like talismans and elixirs, which are consumables.
Over the accumulation of long years, the Treasure Pavilion still possessed some depth of resources.
Thus, Wang Mian'an ultimately gave up on bidding.
After Xing Zejun bid one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, everyone else ceased their bids.
Ye Qingxuan did not delay further and began to count down aloud:
"One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, first time. One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, second time. One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, third time. Sold!"
Ultimately, due to a lack of competition,
this Dragon Pattern Shield was successfully acquired by Xing Zejun at the price of one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones.
