C1118 An Incredible Price
The auction hall was dead silent.
Those who thought that they could no longer compete with Dugu Shang for the pill formula were all quietly waiting for the development of the matter. They wanted to know whether a grade seven pill could be exchanged for a grade eight pill formula. Or, it could be said that there were people who could take out something even more valuable.
Some people who still coveted the pill formula were thinking about what kind of price they had to pay to be able to contend with Dugu Shang and obtain the pill formula from him.
Yang Xuan quietly looked at everyone. Suddenly, a thought that even he himself found inconceivable flashed through his mind. From the fat man's performance, the real seller of the pill formula was currently below the stage. Perhaps he was silently looking at the crowd.
However, he recalled that a month ago, when he had just arrived at the Bedlam Lands... The words that the mysterious man Wangfu had said. A month ago, Wangfu had already predicted the appearance of this pill formula. And this pill formula was indeed what Yang Xuan needed.
Yang Xuan could not figure out what the connection was. However, the answer could also be deduced. And the simplest answer was... This pill formula was originally auctioned by Wangfu. Thinking about the fact that it was bartering, Yang Xuan suddenly had an idea.
At this moment, the fatty picked up a sound transmitting magic tool and placed it beside his ear. His expression was solemn. Clearly, there was someone else speaking on the other side of the magic tool.
After a long while, the fat man put down the sound transmitting magic tool and said to everyone, "This buyer bids a tier 7 pill. Is there anyone else? Our seller said that there was definitely a customer who could get the pill formula on the spot today. However, he hasn't bid yet. Then, who exactly is this customer? "
When Yang Xuan heard this, he frowned. He exchanged glances with Mu Tong, who was beside him. Mu Tong's eyes were also filled with doubt.
The people around looked at each other with confused expressions. Some of the people who were about to take out their rare treasures and trade with them started to wonder if the seller wanted their treasures.
The seller's words made people's imagination run wild.
Any grade seven pill was a condition that could make people go crazy. Although everyone knew that a grade seven alchemist could refine a grade seven pill, refining a grade seven pill was absolutely not as simple as people imagined.
Only a Psychic pill could become a grade seven pill. Hence, when refining a ___, one needed to use all sorts of methods to give it spirituality. This was a very long process. Generally speaking, most alchemists used the most common methods. It was to pour large amounts of Spiritual Force into the pill, allowing it to possess the initial spirituality. Of course, if the medicinal properties of this pill were too overbearing, it would even require painstaking effort.
This step was known as the Point Spirit in the Alchemy Dao. Each Point Spirit required a large amount of effort. Hence, unless there was no other choice, there would not be anyone willing to refine a tier 7 pill.
This also led to the preciousness of a tier 7 pill. And what was the thing that could be more valuable than a tier 7 pill?
Just as everyone was looking around, they suddenly saw a bronze skinned young man stand up. With a confident smile on his face, he looked at everyone and said, "I will exchange a promise for this pill formula. How about it?"
"A promise?" Fatty immediately frowned and looked at Yang Xuan in confusion.
Yang Xuan nodded and said, "That's right. Help me tell the seller that if we meet one day, I will spare his life."
"Hahahahaha."
"Who is this kid? Does he not know the immensity of heaven and earth? "
"That's right. Someone who can take out an eighth-grade pill formula wants you to spare his life. You must have heard too much of myths, right?"
As soon as Yang Xuan finished speaking, before the fatty could reply, the entire auction house was filled with laughter. They were laughing at Yang Xuan for not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. The way they looked at him was like looking at a country bumpkin.
However, Yang Xuan did not pay attention to these people. He just looked at the fatty quietly. Waiting for the answer.
Even Mu Tong and Loong Bupo, who were sitting next to Yang Xuan, looked at Yang Xuan strangely. They didn't know what he meant.
The fat man was stunned on the spot. Although according to the rules of the auction house, Yang Xuan's promise could be considered as part of the barter, but he didn't know if he should tell the seller about it. He was afraid that the seller would not sell it in a fit of anger after hearing this. At that time, he would not be able to bear the responsibility.
However, all of a sudden, a chilly wind blew across the entire auction house. Countless black Qi with a chill feeling gathered in front of the fat man from all directions. The black gas condensed into a human shape, but his face could not be seen clearly.
He wore a bamboo hat on his head, and his eyes that were exposed were red. His body was also formed by a mass of black smoke. Someone used the Divine Sense to investigate the background of this black figure, but only found a bone-chilling coldness.
The black figure laughed loudly, and the entire auction began to vibrate along with his voice. After laughing a few times, he said, "I thought you wouldn't be able to guess it, but I didn't expect you to not be stupid. Yang Xuan, is what you said true?"
The voice of the black shadow gave people a strange feeling. It was as if he was wrapped by something. It seemed a little blurry, but it could still be heard clearly.
Yang Xuan and the black clothed man looked at each other. For some reason, he suddenly had a feeling that the real identity of this black clothed man was the mysterious person he had seen in Anye Tavern, Wangfu.
He nodded and said, "A word from a man weighs more than a thousand kilograms."2
"Alright, you must remember what you said today." As the man in black said that, he turned around to look at the fat man who was scared out of his wits and said, "In that case, give it to him."
"What?"
"How is this possible?"
... "Ridiculous, this is ridiculous!"
All of a sudden, everyone started clamoring. Some of the calmer people carefully sized up Yang Xuan and could not help but frown.
Yang Xuan turned his head and looked at Mu Tong, but when he saw Mu Tong looking at him like he was looking at a ghost, he felt a burst of bitterness. When the man in black appeared just now, he had clearly said his name.
In other words, from now on, Yang Xuan's name would follow the departure of these people, and his name would spread across the entire Central Province.
"Eh, it seems like our seller is very interested in this little brother's promise. Since that's the case, then today's grade eight pill formula has finally been found. Let us congratulate this little brother."
The fat man's face showed some displeasure, because according to the rules of the auction house, half of the auction item's transaction price would be his reward. However, the price that Yang Xuan offered was only a promise. A promise like this could not be fixed. His commission would naturally be gone.
However, this transaction was done according to the seller's wishes. So he could only follow the seller's wishes and hand the pill formula to Yang Xuan honestly.
