Chapter 128: Eight-hundred-year-old Heaven and Earth Root, bidding for Blood Burning Elixir

Luo Chen had followed Mi Shuhua for a long time.

He had plucked many things from him and also learned many things.

Regarding bidding, Mi Shuhua had also generously taught Luo Chen and the others many experiences back then.

For an auction item, one must first look at how important it is to oneself, whether it is a must-have.

Secondly, look at the number of participants to judge the difficulty of bidding.

Finally, look at whether one's financial resources are strong.

Luo Chen's net worth was only five thousand spirit stones, which was not strong, but compared to the starting bid of Rejuvenation Water, it was definitely strong.

And there were many participants in the bidding, and the difficulty seemed very high.

But their bids were rising steadily, and there were even ridiculous moves of bidding one more spirit stone.

It can be seen that the difficulty was not as high as imagined.

The specific reason might be that there were two more bottles, making people feel lucky and not dare to fight to the end.

And Luo Chen was determined to get the Rejuvenation Water!

Therefore, he adopted the most appropriate bidding method.

One hammer to settle the sound!

After the price of one thousand spirit stones was shouted, the scene was quiet for a moment.

Then, there was the sound of restless discussion.

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for that, right? That thing is only marked at five hundred spirit stones in the Spirit Medicine Pavilion; you are paying such a high premium to be a sucker!"

"Crazy, instead of spending so much money, I'd rather wait two more years for the Spirit Medicine Pavilion."

"I won't engage in this kind of emotional struggle with you; there are two more bottles."

"Should be a newcomer, with some family background, not knowing that the good things are still behind."

Facing this kind of discussion, Luo Chen calmed his mind and remained unmoved.

He just paid attention to Tianxingzi's actions.

Under his gaze, Tianxingzi coughed lightly.

"One thousand spirit stones, once!"

"One thousand spirit stones, twice. Are there any other fellow Daoists who want this Rejuvenation Water that helps with Foundation Establishment?"

"Heh, it seems there are none. One thousand spirit stones, three times!"

"Sold!"

Delivering the spirit stones, a bottle of Rejuvenation Water was thus obtained.

Luo Chen's tense body relaxed.

Looking at that small bottle, under the mask, Luo Chen couldn't help but smile.

Rejuvenation Water, one of the Foundation Establishment spiritual medicines produced by the Medicine King Sect.

But the true effect is not as Tianxingzi casually said, helping with Foundation Establishment.

Of course, Tianxingzi was not lying.

It does have a tiny bit of auxiliary effect for Foundation Establishment.

Its true function is to hold onto a breath of life when a cultivator fails to establish Foundation.

In that short time, the cultivator can gather the spiritual energy that was rampaging through the body due to failure, and with the help of the soul and physique, calmly tidy up their own body.

Even if Foundation Establishment fails, it will not cause permanent damage to the cultivator themselves.

As long as they spend some time, they can return to the Qi Refining Great Perfection and continue to try to impact the Foundation Establishment stage.

The price of this medicine is not high, only five hundred spirit stones per bottle in the Spirit Medicine Pavilion.

However, this medicine belongs to the kind that has a market but no goods!

Just because every time the Spirit Medicine Pavilion puts it out, it is snatched up by loose cultivators.

The Medicine King Sect strictly controls this kind of spiritual medicine, so even though the Spirit Medicine Pavilion says it has it every year, in reality, many loose cultivators cannot buy it every year.

Luo Chen had always been worried that his five-element spiritual root physique would hold him back during Foundation Establishment.

Even one or two Foundation Establishment Pills might not ensure success.

And he could hardly estimate or bear the consequences of failure.

Now with a bottle of Rejuvenation Water in hand, at least he can withstand one failure.

Exchanging a cost of one thousand spirit stones for a chance to preserve oneself.

It is definitely not a loss!

He didn't know how others viewed this kind of approach of considering defeat before considering victory.

Anyway, he was this kind of thoughtful personality.

And, did one thousand spirit stones really pay a premium?

Next, the transaction price of the other two bottles of Rejuvenation Water made his lips curl slightly.

"One thousand two hundred spirit stones, once!"

"One thousand two hundred spirit stones, twice!"

"One thousand two hundred spirit stones, three times, sold!"

The cultivator who bid for the last bottle of Rejuvenation Water was the Qi Refining ninth-layer loose cultivator who had bid eight hundred earlier and shouted about who would compete with him and not be able to walk out of this door.

At this moment, his expression was a bit gloomy, looking at Luo Chen and the other person who took down the Rejuvenation Water for one thousand one hundred spirit stones, quite annoyed.

Luo Chen curled his lips.

If you want to learn from others and settle with one hammer, you should bid a ruthless price!

Or, bring out some real things!

Just knowing how to make ruthless words, who is afraid of you!

In the end, he still had to grit his teeth and forcibly buy a bottle.

It was just that no one had the interest, otherwise, bidding one or two more spirit stones would have made this person furious.

Next, Tianxingzi represented the Zhenlong Black Market and brought out one item after another.

Top-grade magic tools, top-grade talismans, medium-grade Huachen Pills, spell manuals, and even puppets!

When the puppet with combat power comparable to the Qi Refining Great Perfection was brought out, everyone was moved.

The price once reached nearly ten thousand spirit stones!

At that time, Luo Chen was a bit dazed, wondering if he was participating in a black market or an auction organized by the Sword Pavilion.

Are loose cultivators so wealthy now?

Compared with these people, he even doubted whether he was an alchemist known for being wealthy.

However, upon discovering that the price was finally shouted by a gray-haired Foundation Establishment cultivator, it made sense.

Luo Chen didn't take action to compete for that puppet, even though the other party claimed it was refined by an Elder of the Luoyun Sect.

He just took action once more, bidding for that spell manual for nine hundred spirit stones.

In the cultivation world, cultivation techniques are strictly controlled by large sects, and the techniques that flow out are mostly simplified versions.

But spells are widely circulated.

Just because spells are easy to learn but difficult to master, and have various defects such as slow activation speed and high consumption of magic power.

It is precisely because of this that the price of spell manuals has always been very cheap.

When he bought that set of "Five Must-Have Spells for the Qi Refining Stage" from Wang Yuan, it only cost two hundred spirit stones.

The truly expensive spells are actually the improved versions sold by the Five Elements God Sect.

The reason why the spell manual Luo Chen bid for this time cost nine hundred spirit stones was mainly because of the grade.

This is a second-grade fire-type spell.

"Mountain Collapse"

"Fire-type spell, why take a name with an earth-type style?"

Luo Chen was puzzled, and the auction in the field had already reached the last round of the host.

"Heaven and Earth Root."

Luo Chen looked up suddenly!

He saw that on the sandalwood table, something shaped like a human tongue was lying quietly there.

Not only him, but everyone's gaze fell there.

Tianxingzi smiled slightly, "I believe many fellow Daoists came here for it!"

"Eight-hundred-year-old Heaven and Earth Root, taken raw, can increase the probability of Foundation Establishment by twenty percent, only ten percent lower than the low-grade Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Of course, if you can invite an alchemy master to refine it into a medium-grade Foundation Establishment Pill, the effect will be increased to forty percent!"

"I won't say much nonsense; the starting bid is one thousand spirit stones."

Before the words fell!

"Two thousand!"

"Three thousand!"

"Four thousand spirit stones!"

Simple and direct, the bidding efficiency was far higher than that of an orthodox auction.

Luo Chen estimated his net worth, three thousand five hundred in cash, if he added a top-grade magic tool...

"Five thousand!"

His calculation stopped.

Not only him, but all the Qi Refining cultivators who were bidding stopped their crazy actions.

Another Foundation Establishment cultivator who had never participated in the bidding spoke up.

Luo Chen sighed; sure enough, such good things wouldn't be their turn at all.

Or rather, the purpose of these two Foundation Establishment cultivators coming here should be mainly for this piece of eight-hundred-year-old Heaven and Earth Root!

Next, just watch the show.

It's a pity that the good show wasn't watched either.

The other Foundation Establishment cultivator opened his eyes, and an extremely old voice permeated.

"I bid five thousand five hundred spirit stones to buy this piece of Heaven and Earth Root. In addition, I can give Fellow Daoist Zhou a promise of one action."

"Heh, then please."

That Zhou-surnamed Foundation Establishment cultivator laughed loudly, then stood up gracefully and headed straight out of the hall.

"Sigh..."

The old Foundation Establishment cultivator sighed deeply and walked step by step to Tianxingzi.

The two stared at each other for a while, then Tianxingzi also nodded with a smile.

After delivering the spirit stones, the old Foundation Establishment cultivator took the piece of Heaven and Earth Root and also left the hall.

Watching this scene, many Qi Refining ninth-layer loose cultivators who had come for the Heaven and Earth Root couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow in their hearts.

The Foundation Establishment Pills at the Sword Pavilion auction were not their turn.

Now even the spiritual medicine Heaven and Earth Root, which is worse than the Foundation Establishment Pill, was divided up by these big Foundation Establishment figures in words.

It really doesn't give loose cultivators any way to live!

Luo Chen was also a bit disappointed; he wanted to fight for it.

After a brief disappointment, there was another burst of joy.

Because the next stage of loose cultivator self-bidding opened his eyes.

All kinds of strange things attracted his attention.

"Fellow Daoists, please look, this is a bellyband."

"Lotus hiding a carp!"

"It looks ordinary, right? Just a medium-grade magic tool. But this thing can erupt with power close to a top-grade magic tool."

"Don't believe it? You can ask the Five-Color Treasure Compass to identify it, but the identification fee must be borne by the fellow Daoist who finally bids for it."

Under everyone's expectation, the bellyband was placed on the huge Five-Color Treasure Compass.

The compass needle first jumped to the middle scale of the blue color, which represents a water-type medium-grade magic tool.

Immediately after, the needle suddenly jumped to the peak position of the upper blue color, even trembling non-stop.

This means that the eruptive power can reach the peak of high-grade, close to the intensity of a top-grade magic tool.

The loose cultivator who hung it for auction smiled slightly.

"The effect of 'Lotus Hiding a Carp' is extremely special, and the method of use is also very unique."

"First, it must be a female cultivator."

"Secondly, it must be worn close to the body all year round, nourished by one's own spiritual energy."

"Only after more than a year of nourishment, when encountering an enemy, lift the outer garment. A huge spiritual energy white carp will fly out, forcefully destroying the enemy."

Luo Chen was stunned.

How can there be such a strange magic tool?

And, which master refined it?

And for what purpose was this thing specially refined?

It must be said that the effect of this treasure is extremely good!

Luo Chen was a bit tempted.

It's just a pity that it's limited to female cultivators, which made him awkward.

Finally, this treasure fell into the hands of a beautiful female cultivator who was silent, costing seven hundred spirit stones.

Everyone tacitly looked at the female cultivator, watching her flat figure.

Wearing a mask, everyone didn't know what expression the other party had.

Only knowing that two men tacitly walked in front of her, blocking those gazes.

"Is it not appropriate?"

Luo Chen muttered in his heart; if it were for Gu Caiyi or Feng Xia, it should be very appropriate!

However, after a while, the female cultivator also walked to the sandalwood table, calmly facing the strange gazes one by one.

"Five bottles of Runming Pearl Liquid, starting bid one hundred and fifty spirit stones per bottle, fellow Daoists interested can bid."

Hearing this name, most loose cultivators were not interested.

Luo Chen's eyes lit up.

This thing is suitable for Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators and can repair eye fatigue.

If used consistently for a long time, it can allow cultivators to easily distinguish between yin energy, turbid energy, evil energy, and many other filthy energies.

It is said that because one of the main ingredients is the smoke-containing pearl nurtured by the rare yin beast, the smoke-containing clam.

Luo Chen had obtained a bottle before, and that was after his Spirit Eye Technique proficiency reached the master level, which caused his eyes to bleed.

Mi Shuhua, out of concern, sent a portion through Mi Junping.

To be honest, he finished it.

There was no effect.

But thinking that "Qingyuan Elixir Solution" said that this thing is very good for alchemists, he also tried to buy more and use it consistently for a long time.

Unfortunately, the Spirit Medicine Pavilion doesn't sell this thing either.

No, this thing was researched by the Yuding Sword Sect, so the Spirit Medicine Pavilion naturally couldn't sell it.

Luo Chen noticed that no one bid, and the thought of bidding in his heart also went out, just squinting his eyes and deeply remembering the other party's figure.

The beautiful female cultivator shouted twice, and seeing no one was interested, she shook her head helplessly.

It is normal for this kind of spiritual medicine to have no market.

She originally thought that the black market would have late-stage cultivators or Foundation Establishment cultivators interested, but there was no harvest.

After she went down, other cultivators came up to auction personal items.

Luo Chen watched with interest, and some special strange magic tools really opened his eyes.

Whenever unidentifiable strange magic tools appeared, the Five-Color Treasure Compass was often used.

When there were fewer and fewer people, Luo Chen took a deep breath and walked up silently.

"Blood Burning Elixir, first-grade low-grade elixir."

"After taking it, Qi Refining cultivators can instantly increase their combat power by thirty percent; it is truly a treasure for home travel and killing and arson!"

"Starting bid..."

Initially, no one paid attention.

But when Luo Chen said the specific effect, everyone's attention gathered.

Luo Chen coughed lightly and said: "Fifty spirit stones per pill!"

This starting bid was definitely the lowest in the Zhenlong Black Market today.

And this price was also outrageously high for a first-grade low-grade elixir.

A bottle of Nourishing Qi Elixir has ten pills, priced at one hundred spirit stones, which is ten spirit stones per pill.

The better Huachen Pill is also only twenty spirit stones per pill.

And these are all guaranteed by the reputation of the Medicine King Sect, and the Spirit Medicine Pavilion is responsible for after-sales.

What kind of elixir are you, why do you dare to sell at such a high price?

However, the situation on the scene was that after Luo Chen shouted the price, no one questioned the price.

What they questioned was the effect!

"Does it really have this effect?"

"It's not a demonic elixir, is it!"

"Don't care if it's a demonic elixir or not, as long as it's useful. Fellow Daoist, don't lie to us?"

In the black market, no one cares about your righteous path or demonic path.

Facing various questions about the elixir, Luo Chen spread his hands.

"Senior Tianxingzi, please take a look."

The Five-Color Treasure Compass can only identify the grade and power.

And when it comes to the effect of the elixir, it depends on the person.

Tianxingzi had already made big words before, so he must have some confidence!

Under everyone's expectation, Tianxingzi reached out and summoned a bottle of Blood Burning Elixir.

Taking out the elixir inside, he first looked at it carefully, then smelled it carefully, and finally even scraped a little bit of medicinal powder with his fingernail and put it into his mouth.

His expression changed slightly.

Then, he stuffed the bottle of Blood Burning Elixir into his storage bag very naturally.

"This bottle belongs to me; I will settle with you at the highest auction price later."

Luo Chen smiled; this was equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator guaranteeing it for him.

Then!

"Fellow Daoists, please!"
