After Lin Zhen called out the price, countless pairs of eyes turned to look at him.
Everyone who could participate in this auction could take out 200 million, but such a large jump in price was very eye-catching.
"Who is this person? He looks so young. "
"Level 5 Alchemist? Is this the guild's newly promoted elder? Why haven't I seen him before? "
"A Level 9 Nebula … It seems that this person is a genius in alchemy. He's really rich."
"You actually haven't seen this person before? He's the Ice and Fire Alchemist Lin Zhen who's been selling pills like hotcakes recently. His pills are really useful. They don't have the side effects of fire poison at all. People are going crazy over them."
"Oh! A pure alchemist. It seems that he's here to sell herbs. Then I won't compete with him. "
People were discussing in low voices. Although very few people had seen Lin Zhen before, the name of the Ice and Fire Alchemist was very famous during this period of time. Not many people did not know of him.
Some people also looked at Gu Yunting. They thought that the two of them should have some grudges. Gu Yunting wouldn't let Lin Zhen get the White Tiger blood so easily.
Lin Zhen also looked at Gu Yunting with a hint of provocation in his eyes.
Gu Yunting glanced at Lin Zhen and then went to chat with the people around him. He didn't pay attention to Lin Zhen at all.
The host over there shouted a few times. When he saw that no one was competing with Lin Zhen, he immediately dropped the hammer and announced that the White Tiger blood belonged to Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen's 200 million was very smart. It directly made people who wanted to take advantage of him retreat. It also showed his determination to not let this item fall into the hands of others. Most people wouldn't compete with him.
However, he didn't expect Gu Yunting to give up. What was this person thinking?
But no matter what, the White Tiger blood was in his hands. Lin Zhen only lacked the Vermillion Bird blood to gather the four spirits and refine the Bloodthirsty Divine Needle.
On the other side, a World King powerhouse beside Gu Yunting asked, "President, aren't you going to compete with Lin Zhen?"
"Haha! It's just a mere herb. What's there to compete for? It's not like the White Tiger blood can't be bought. If I compete with him, others will think I'm a joke and think I'm petty. "
"But that Lin Zhen seems to be provoking you."
"Hehe, let him provoke me. This brat is playing a psychological battle with me, but he's still too young. He definitely wants to push the price of the White Tiger's blood to a high price and make me suffer a hidden loss. After that, he has his eyes on another thing."
"President, you're talking about …?"
Gu Yunting pointed at an auction item. "Don't forget, Lin Zhen is an alchemist, and a genius alchemist at that. I'm certain that this person has been madly obsessed with alchemy since he was a child. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to have such achievements at such a young age. So, everything that is beneficial to alchemy is what he wants. For instance, this."
"An ancient pill recipe!"
"That's right, every ancient pill recipe has its own miraculous effects. If an alchemist were to obtain it, it would mean an endless amount of wealth. If Lin Zhen were to obtain this ancient pill recipe, then he would have a firm foothold in the alchemy market of Xian Le County. No one would be able to chase him away. Therefore, no matter what, I cannot let him obtain it."
Gu Yunting said with a smile. "I'll give up on the White Tiger blood, but this pill recipe, I will definitely snipe him. I know that he has earned a lot of money during this period of time, but no matter what price I have to pay, this pill recipe will be mine. Because I am also an alchemist, and a sixth level alchemist at that!"
The World King beside him nodded his head in praise, praising Gu Yunting for his foresight.
But from his point of view, Gu Yunting had dominated the alchemy market for so many years. His wealth should be astronomical. If he wanted to buy something, no one would be able to compete with him.
If he was Gu Yunting, he would make sure that Lin Zhen couldn't get anything. That would be great.
But he didn't know that the majority of Gu Yunting's income had to be handed over to the people behind him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hold this market by himself.
The money that actually reached Gu Yunting's hands wasn't much!
Gu Yunting's card now didn't have much, but he still had thirty to forty billion. He was also aware of the situation of Lin Zhen's alchemy sales. So, he was confident that he could snipe Lin Zhen.
*****
After Lin Zhen obtained the White Tiger blood, he didn't continue to buy anything else. Although those dazzling items were indeed tempting, Lin Zhen knew his goal. He wouldn't lose the big picture for small gains.
Lin Zhen had a hope in his heart. He hoped that the auction of the Taiyuan Sword Technique would appear before the ancient pill recipe. This way, he would have enough money to compete for the ancient pill recipe.
Because from his point of view, Gu Yunting wouldn't let go of this pill recipe. There would definitely be a battle. Perhaps he had to think of a way.
But reality didn't go as he wished. The ancient pill recipe appeared first.
"The next item has a great background. As everyone knows, there are countless ancient ruins in the Yuan Realm. Too many genius warriors have fallen in various parts of the Yuan Realm. There are countless treasures waiting for adventurers to discover. And this ancient pill recipe originated from the ancient tomb of a super alchemist. It's the most precious treasure he left behind before he died.
"Every time a new pill recipe appears on the market, it will definitely set off a frenzy. Dear alchemist friends, can you imagine the wealth it will bring? I don't think I need to introduce it further. Therefore, the starting price of this pill recipe is three billion. Each increment is one hundred million! Begin! "
"Three billion, I want this pill recipe!"
"Three billion one hundred million! You're not even an alchemist. Don't participate. This is a battle between alchemists. "
"You should show some sincerity in a battle between alchemists. What's the point of increments of one hundred million? I'll bid three billion five hundred million! "
"Three billion five hundred million is only enough for you to take a look. Four billion!"
The bidding voices at the scene immediately rose and fell. Some alchemists even threw off their robes excitedly and stood on their chairs to shout loudly. The atmosphere immediately heated up.
Lin Feng muttered behind Lin Zhen, "Boss, aren't you going to fight for this pill recipe? If we get it, we'll earn even more money. We'll get our money back very quickly. "
"We must fight for it, but it's not the time yet."
After waiting for a while, the price rose to seven billion five hundred million. The number of people bidding finally decreased.
According to the original prediction, the price of this ancient pill recipe was about ten billion. When the price approached this price, a large number of people would naturally be eliminated.
Only a burly barbarian warrior and a black-robed alchemist were competing.
When the price rose to eight billion, Lin Zhen made his move.
"Ten billion!"
It was fine if he didn't hold back, but once he shouted, it was shocking.
The barbarian warrior was stunned. Ten billion was his bottom line. He couldn't get used to it if it exceeded this price.
Shaking his head, the barbarian warrior sat down, indicating that he withdrew from the competition.
The black-robed alchemist was also a member of the Alchemist Guild. He was a very senior elder and a fifth grade alchemist.
Seeing Lin Zhen raise the price, the black-robed alchemist chuckled. "Elder Lin Zhen, it's just you and me left. However, this old man seems to have reached a dead end in alchemy recently. I'm in urgent need of new inspiration to stimulate my alchemy. So, why don't you give this pill formula to me?
"Hehe! I can give up other things, but this pill recipe is really not. Elder Wang also knows that the pill recipe is the life of an alchemist. Why don't you give it to me? After I bid for it, I can give you two pills. You can study it yourself. Eleven billion! "
Elder Wang also felt the pressure. A bid of five hundred million was really not something that ordinary people could bear. He was also reaching his limit, but he still wanted to fight for it.
"This old man is very stubborn. I really want to try Elder Lin's purchasing power. Eleven billion five hundred million!"
"Then I'm afraid Elder Wang will be very disappointed. Twelve billion!"
When Lin Zhen said this sentence expressionlessly, Elder Wang's face changed. He gritted his teeth and wanted to continue speaking, but in the end, he didn't dare to.
After Elder Wang sat down dejectedly, Lin Zhen's face revealed a proud smile.
Twelve billion to get an ancient pill recipe. This price was completely worth it.
The host on the stage began to ask questions continuously. There were already people around who began to applaud Lin Zhen. After all, such a high transaction amount should be encouraged according to etiquette.
Lin Zhen waved his hand in the midst of the applause. He was only waiting for the host to announce that he could get the pill recipe.
However, just before the host shouted for the third time, Gu Yunting suddenly spoke.
"Young man, your alchemy skills are still not up to par. The ancient pill recipe will be wasted in your hands. Why don't you give it to me to try? Thirteen billion! "
The applause came to an abrupt end. Everyone's faces were filled with excitement.
The host also shouted excitedly, "Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, the president of the Pill Chamber of Commerce, has made a bid. This time, he will increase the price by one billion. I guarantee that this pill recipe is definitely worth this price. I wonder if there is anyone else who wants to compete with Mr. Gu!"
Previously, he increased the price by five hundred million. Now, he increased it by one billion. Everyone wanted to see if Lin Zhen still had the courage to continue.
After all, this price had already exceeded the normal price of the pill recipe.
Lin Zhen's face was also flushed red. After seeing Gu Yunting increase the price, he instantly straightened his body.
"Although Mr. Gu is rich and imposing, Lin Zhen is not talented. I really want to try with Mr. Gu. Fifteen billion!"
A one-time increase of two billion ~!
Gu Yunting was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Zhen to be so daring. However, this was completely within his expectations. Today, even if he had to pay a huge price, he would still defeat Lin Zhen on this point.
No! It was to defeat Lin Zhen in all aspects!
"Haha! As expected, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Then, let's play. Eighteen billion! "
There was an uproar at the scene.
This time, Gu Yunting actually increased the price by three billion. This was really going overboard.
The Yuan Realm's currency still had a lot of purchasing power. Eighteen billion was a price that even some poor Immortal-Level martial artists would find difficult to take out, let alone a Realm King.
This price had also far exceeded the normal price of the pill recipe.
Sure enough, after Lin Zhen heard this price, a helpless look appeared on his face. He finally sat down.
Gu Yunting revealed a victorious smile. This was all within his expectations. He had already calculated how much Lin Zhen had earned from selling medicine these days. At most, it would be a hundred and sixty. It would not exceed a hundred and seventy. He bid a hundred and eighty. Lin Zhen couldn't even match his bid.
The host announced that the pill recipe belonged to Gu Yunting. Gu Yunting won this round.
