Sure enough, Lu Xuan couldn't help revealing a trace of surprise when he heard this. He had obtained Ye Tian's inheritance, so he was naturally familiar with the records of various treasures. Although the Dao Heart Yuan Pill and the Geocentric Spiritual Milk weren't commonly seen, Lu Xuan was very familiar with their preciousness.
The Dao Heart Yuan Pill was formed by a martial artist using a special cultivation technique to forcefully extract a law that he had comprehended and condense it into a Yuan Pill. If anyone could absorb the Dao Heart Yuan Pill, they would naturally be able to comprehend the law contained within the Dao Heart Yuan Pill. The preciousness of it could be seen.
Moreover, the success rate of condensing the Dao Heart Yuan Pill was extremely low. It was simply one in a thousand. Furthermore, to condense the Dao Heart Yuan Pill, it had to be condensed when the martial artist was at his peak. If it was condensed before the martial artist's death or before the end of his life, the success rate was almost zero. Which martial artist would be willing to extract a law that they had comprehended when they were at their peak? This was completely a method of benefiting others at the expense of oneself.
If the Dao Heart Yuan Pill could be artificially made, then the Geocentric Spiritual Milk was a true heavenly treasure that could only be found by luck. The Geocentric Spiritual Milk was condensed from the essence of the world. After consuming it, it could enhance the quality of one's body. Whether it was Yuan Power, Soul Power, or even physical strength, it could greatly increase.
Just these two treasures were enough to drive countless martial artists crazy. Any one of them was enough to cause people to scramble for it, not to mention the Heaven-step Treasure!
Although the Heaven Rank Treasure was only one level higher than the High Grade Earth Rank Treasure, the difference was the same as the difference between Heaven Rank and Earth Rank.
As long as one had enough good materials, one could forge a High Rank Earth Rank Artifact with the strength of a Rank 5 Sect. However, a Heaven Rank Artifact was not something that could be forged by the people of the current Heavenly Sword Continent. All of the Heaven Rank Artifacts in the Heavenly Sword Continent were ancient artifacts that had not been damaged for tens of thousands of years. From this, one could see how powerful a Heaven Rank Artifact was.
Compared to the Dao Heart Yuan Pill, which could be artificially made, and the Geocentric Spiritual Milk, which could be obtained by chance, the Heaven Rank Treasure was a true peerless treasure. So this time, the most precious item wasn't the first two, but the third – a Heaven-step Treasure!
But compared to Lu Xuan, a Heaven-step Treasure was of little value. With the Foggy Dust Sword and the Profound Ice Phoenix Blood Sword in hand, a Heaven-step Treasure was nothing.
"What Law is contained within that Dao Heart Essence Pill? What rank is it? " Lu Xuan asked. The price of the Dao Heart Essence Elixir of different laws differed by a thousand times. How could the Dao Heart Essence Elixir of a minor dao compare to the Dao Heart Essence Elixir of a supreme dao?
"According to the consensus of our appraisers, the Dao Heart Yuan Dan contained talisman Taoism, and it was condensed by a four-star Divine Talisman Master." Bi 'er answered very familiarly.
"It's actually the Talisman Dao." Lu Xuan murmured to himself. Talisman Taoism was actually a supreme dao, but it was all-encompassing. It was a complete world of Talisman Taoism. Although Lu Xuan had comprehended Talisman Taoism, he understood that what he saw was only the tip of the iceberg. There were still many insights waiting for him to discover. Moreover, the Talisman Taoism comprehended by every Divine Talisman Master was not the same. It was not as clear as the other laws.
But even so, the Dao Heart Yuan Dan of Talisman Taoism was very precious. At least, it could allow a Nine Star Spirit Talisman Master to successfully open the door of Talisman Taoism and successfully enter the realm of Divine Talisman Master. Lu Xuan believed that without tens of thousands, or even tens of thousands of top-grade Primordial Stones, it would be impossible to obtain this Dao Heart Yuan Dan of Talisman Taoism.
After that, Lu Xuan asked Bi 'er about the Spiritual Milk of the Geocentric and the Heaven-grade treasure. There wasn't much Spiritual Milk of the Geocentric, only half a bowl. Of course, it was also possible that the Vast Ocean Pavilion had given the rest of the Spiritual Milk of the Geocentric to the Myriad Shark Island, and only a portion was auctioned off.
As for the Heaven-step Treasure, it was a longsword. The people of Myriad Shark Island were skilled with knives and axes, which was why they brought out such a rare Heaven-step Treasure. Among the major fifth-rank sects, the Jiuhua Alliance had the most swordsmen.
After carefully weighing the use of these three treasures, Lu Xuan made up his mind. He had to obtain at least one of them. He continued to look at the following items. Although there were many materials that tempted Lu Xuan, he restrained himself. These things weren't what he needed, and he didn't need to spend money on them.
Although he was wealthy, he didn't have full confidence that he would be able to dominate the final competition. After all, he was alone, and everyone else had the support of a sect or family.
The competition grew fiercer and fiercer. The highest bid had already broken through five thousand top grade source stones. As the atmosphere heated up, the entire auction house gradually came to an end.
Finally, when the last ordinary item was sold for four thousand and four hundred top grade source stones, the lights in the auction house suddenly went out. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, and everyone couldn't help but sit up straight. Lu Xuan was no exception. Everyone knew that the most exciting moment was about to come.
Those who came for the three final treasures were already prepared to compete fiercely. As for those who didn't have enough money, they braced themselves and prepared to enjoy the next "battle of wits".
A light shone on Shopkeeper Xu's body. Shopkeeper Xu straightened his clothes, coughed lightly, and said with a smile, "Well, I'm sure everyone has been waiting impatiently for this moment. Even though the previous items up for auction are all superb treasures, they can't be considered to be true treasures. The reason why the Oceanic Pavilion has the courage to hold this auction with such great fanfare and invite all of you here is because we have three precious treasures as the finale. "
"Shopkeeper Xu, make a long story short. Bring out the treasures, that's more important than anything else!" Someone shouted from the audience.
Shopkeeper Xu laughed heartily and said, "Very well, since everyone can't wait any longer, I'll fulfill everyone's wish. Seeing a treasure is more useful than hearing a hundred words from Old Xu. Men, bring the first treasure!"
Everyone's eyes followed the light and soon fell on an exhibition carriage. Two young girls slowly pushed the carriage forward, and four strong men guarded it. On the exhibition carriage, there was a palm-sized jade box. In the jade box, there was a longan-sized Yuan Dan. Under the light, there was a faint light circulating, and it looked extremely attractive.
"Dao Heart Essence Pill. I'm sure everyone here is familiar with this term, but the number of people who have actually seen a Dao Heart Essence Pill can be counted on one hand. That's right, the first treasure of the finale is a Dao Heart Essence Pill!" Manager Xu's voice rang out in the darkness.
"This Dao Heart Yuan Dan contains a complete comprehension of the Talisman Doctrine. It was condensed by a Four Star Divine Talisman Master. As long as you absorb this Dao Heart Yuan Dan, you will naturally comprehend the Talisman Doctrine, step into the world of the Talisman Doctrine, and become a true Divine Talisman Master!"
"This is simply a supreme and precious treasure to a Spirit Talisman Master. No matter if it's for one's own absorption or gifting to a junior, it's an extremely good thing. With this Dao Heart Origin Pill, practically any Spirit Talisman Master can ascend to the Divine Talisman Master Realm!"
Shopkeeper Xu's voice sounded out ceaselessly. After a pause, he said, "Now, we'll start bidding for this Dao Heart Yuan Dan. The starting price is … None!"
The fact that there was no reserve price implied that this item was a priceless treasure. For such a treasure, any reserve price would be a joke to the people present. The final price would definitely be extremely high, far surpassing all the previous items.
As expected, as soon as Shopkeeper Xu finished speaking, a voice took the lead to bid. "10,000 top-grade Yuan Stones."
It was Room 1!
All the martial artists who were about to call out a price were silenced. The highest price of the previous auction items was only slightly more than five thousand. They didn't expect that once this Dao Heart Elemental Elixir appeared, the number one private room would directly raise the price to ten thousand supreme-grade Origin Stones, which was almost twice the previous price. This action of his undoubtedly showed his determination to obtain this Dao Heart Elemental Elixir.
Shopkeeper Xu was also a bit helpless. What happened in the first private room was undoubtedly using their power to oppress others. Fortunately, the person in the first private room was kind enough to directly quote a price of ten thousand top grade Primordial Stones. Although it was much lower than what he had expected, it was still not a big loss.
However, Shopkeeper Xu was still not in a hurry to announce it. He looked at the crowd of cultivators with a glimmer of hope, hoping to see if anyone would stroke the tiger's whiskers. After all, the Dao Heart Yuan Dan was still very rare.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths … No one spoke. Shopkeeper Xu had already given up. He sighed inwardly, and when he raised the auction hammer helplessly, a calm voice rang out. "11,000 top-grade Yuan Stones."
Shopkeeper Xu was immediately stunned, and the auction hammer that he had raised paused. There was actually someone who raised the price? Indeed, not everyone knew who the person in Room 1 was. Those who didn't know naturally had nothing to fear.
The one who bid was from Room 9. Shopkeeper Xu had a deep impression of this room, because the first item of this auction was from Room 9. In addition, the person in Room 9 had also won the pair of Yin-Yang Soul Severing Insects. Coincidentally, the Yin-Yang Soul Severing Insects were also taken from Room 1 by Room 9. It seemed that Room 9 didn't know the identity of Room 1's guest.
Shopkeeper Xu didn't expect Room 9 to fight to the death with Room 1. As long as they could help raise the price a few times, that would be enough.
He immediately said, "Room 9 bids 11,000 top-grade Yuan Stones. Is there anyone who will bid a higher price?"
As soon as Shopkeeper Xu's voice was heard, the entire auction house was filled with murmurs of discussion. Many of the cultivators looked curiously at Booth Nine, trying to guess who was inside. Not giving face to Booth One twice, did they not want to live in the Jiuhua Alliance anymore? Or was it a dragon from somewhere else?
