"It should be soon."
Duan Lingtian's brows raised, seeming to have noticed something.
At this moment, through the window of the room, he could vaguely see a few people walking into the hall and finding a seat in the hall to sit down.
Along with the passage of time …
The number of people grew more and more.
Before long, the hall was filled with people, and it was a dense mass of people.
"A seat in the hall costs 1,000 silver per person … Just the entrance fee of this Ma Clan Auction House is enough to make one's hands go soft."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be astounded.
When the number of people increased, it naturally became noisy.
Before long, Duan Lingtian saw an old man slowly walking up the auction stage …
He knew that the auction was about to begin.
As expected.
"Everyone, welcome to our Ma Clan Auction House. I guarantee that everyone will absolutely feel that this trip today was not made in vain …"
After the old man ascended the auction stage, he started talking nonsense that didn't contain any substance.
It was none other than bragging about how good the auction items of their Ma Clan Auction House today were.
As the saying goes, 'Huang Po sells melons and praises herself'.
"Alright, I see that everyone seems to be slightly impatient. Let's bring up the first auction item now!"
The old man's voice suddenly sounded out.
For a moment, the group of people in the hall that were drowsy shuddered and awoke from their stupor.
A young woman held a tray that was covered by a red cloth in her hand as she walked up the auction stage.
Along with the young woman removing the red cloth, the thing on the tray appeared before everyone's eyes. It was a medicinal pill bottle.
The old man picked up the medicinal pill bottle, swept his gaze across the hall, and said in a clear voice, "Everyone, there are 10 Origin Strengthening Pills within this medicinal pill bottle!"
Origin Strengthening Pills were medicinal pills used by Origin Core Stage martial artists to cultivate, and it could increase one's cultivation speed.
But, Origin Strengthening Pills were sold everywhere even in medicine stores outside.
For a moment, many people lost interest.
There were even people that said in disdain, "When did the Ma Clan Auction House decline to such an extent? They're actually taking out this sort of trashy thing to auction … Origin Strengthening Pills, 10,000 silver per pill in medicine stores outside, the price is clearly marked!"
"Yeah, there's no need to take out this sort of thing to auction, right?"
"Quickly change to the next auction item!"
…
The group of people in the hall spoke out one after another.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
In the face of such a scene, the old man's expression did not change. He even seemed to have known that something like this would happen.
As the old man raised his hand, the hall fell silent.
"Everyone, do you think that our Ma Family Auction House will auction off an ordinary 'Yuan Strengthening Pill'?"
The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly. "As everyone knows, the purity of the pills refined by ordinary alchemists is at most a little over 60% … Being able to achieve 65% purity is already considered extremely rare. However, the purity of this bottle of Origin Strengthening Pills in my hands had reached 75%! Seventy-five percent, what does that mean?! "
"An Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 75%. Once consumed, the cultivation speed will be twice as fast as an ordinary Origin Strengthening Pill! If it's given to those Origin Core Stage martial artists who have fallen into a bottleneck and are unable to break through for a long time, relying on this Origin Strengthening Pill, they might even be able to directly break through! "
As expected, the old man's words caused a commotion in the hall.
"Origin Strengthening Pill with 75% purity?"
"Really?"
"Which alchemist is so awesome, to be able to refine such a high purity Origin Strengthening Pill!"
…
In the hall, many people didn't quite believe it.
In their impression, a medicinal pill with a purity of over 70% could already be considered as an existence of legends …
A medicinal pill with a purity of over 75% was already close to the legendary medicinal pill with a purity of 80%.
When the old man saw this, he continued. "Everyone, these 10 Origin Strengthening Pills were personally verified by our Ma Family's Lord Hu Jun. So, everyone doesn't have to worry about whether the purity of the medicinal pill conforms to what I've said … Out of the 10 Origin Strengthening Pills, seven have a purity of 75%, and three have a purity that's infinitely close to 76%."
"Moreover, the credibility of our Ma Family is obvious to all!"
Many people in the hall nodded when they heard the old man's words.
The Ma Family had indeed never lost their credibility in an auction.
"Since it was verified by Lord Hu Jun, then there's naturally no problem."
"Exactly, Lord Hu Jun is the one and only grade seven alchemist in Black Wind City. His judgment is surely not wrong!"
"Old man Ma, quickly state the starting price!"
…
The people in the hall spoke out one after another, urging the old man to state the starting price.
Within the room.
A wisp of surprise appeared on Duan Lingtian's face as well.
Purity 75%?
He never imagined that at the common border between the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom and the Crimson Sky Kingdom, a medicinal pill with such a high purity would appear.
Purity 75% …
It was sufficient to show that the alchemist that refined this Origin Strengthening Pill was an alchemist with abundant experience and extraordinary natural talent.
Of course, this purity wasn't taken seriously by Duan Lingtian.
Not to mention a purity of 75%, even if it was a purity of 90%, he would still be able to easily refine it.
If he were to seriously refine it, he would even be able to refine a medicinal pill with a purity of 99% …
The lifetime experience and ability of the Samsara Emperor Wu in his alchemy was no joke.
"A purity of only 75% and you have the nerve to auction it off?"
Li Fei grunted in a low voice. She remembered that the Origin Strengthening Pill her man refined had a purity of over 90% ….
As far as she was concerned, an Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 75% was simply trash when compared to the Origin Strengthening Pill refined by her man!
But even if it was trash, the price of the auction still shocked Li Fei.
Along with the old man stating the starting price, 10 Origin Strengthening Pills with a purity of 75% were actually auctioned off for a high price of 300,000 silver.
Not only that, the auction still continued.
"400,000 silver!"
"500,000 silver!"
...
Hearing the bids in the main hall, Li Fei said dumbfoundedly, "Mad, they've surely gone mad!"
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled, as he felt it was understandable.
To a certain extent, an Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 75% was indeed able to help an Origin Core martial artist break through the final bottleneck and smoothly step into the next level.
Of course, it was only limited to first level and second level Origin Core martial artists.
After all, it was only an Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 75%.
"1,000,000 silver!"
Finally, along with a deep voice sounding out from a room on the second floor, a bottle of Origin Strengthening Pills with a purity of 75% was won by him.
"The guest in room number 5 has obtained this bottle of Origin Strengthening Pills with a purity of 75%!"
The old man on the auction platform announced.
Subsequently, another young woman held a tray and ascended the auction platform. The item being auctioned this time was a grade eight spirit weapon with an amplification of 18%.
Duan Lingtian and the others similarly weren't interested in this auction item.
"Scoundrel, those 10 Origin Strengthening Pills with a purity of 75% are actually able to be sold for 1,000,000 silver …. If you were to sell the Origin Strengthening Pills you refined, wouldn't it be even more valuable?"
Li Fei recovered from her shock, then looked at Duan Lingtian as traces of bright lights condensed within her beautiful eyes.
"Of course."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"An Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 75% is already worth 100,000 silver …. I wonder how much the Pure Origin Pills with a purity of 90% and above can be sold for."
Li Fei had a curious expression, as if she urgently wanted to know the answer.
How could Duan Lingtian be unable to see through Li Fei's thoughts? He shook his head and smiled. "Little Fei, if you really want to know, then I'll choose an Origin Strengthening Pill with the lowest purity I refined and auction it at the Ma Clan Auction House …. I think they would be interested as well."
Li Fei's beautiful eyes lit up, and the nearby Kerr had a curious expression as well.
"Xiong Quan, call the attendant outside in."
Duan Lingtian instructed Xiong Quan.
In next to no time, the attendant entered. "Guest, do you have any instructions?"
Duan Lingtian raised his hand and a medicinal pill bottle appeared in his hand, then he passed it to the attendant. "There's a medicinal pill within, I intend to auction it at your auction house …. Ask your manager to make the arrangements."
The attendant heard this and extended his hand to receive it, but didn't ask anything.
He knew what he should ask and what he shouldn't ask.
After the attendant left, Duan Lingtian once again looked at the auction platform and noticed that the grade eight spirit weapon had just been won by someone.
"Manager!"
After the attendant obtained the medicinal pill bottle Duan Lingtian gave him, he went to look for Manager Ma Qin.
"Hmm?"
Ma Qin's gaze descended onto the attendant's hand and asked. "A guest wants to auction something?"
"Yes, Manager, it's that young guest."
The attendant spoke respectfully.
"Young guest? That violet-clothed young man? "
Ma Qin asked curiously.
"Yes."
The attendant nodded.
Ma Qin received the medicinal pill bottle and opened it to take a look. He couldn't help but frown when he noticed that there was actually an Origin Strengthening Pill within. "What does that guest mean? Origin Strengthening Pill? And there's only one? "
In the end, he didn't directly send the Origin Strengthening Pill back, but instead took it to the backstage of the auction house.
"Lord Hu Jun!"
In next to no time, Ma Qin found their Ma Clan's one and only grade seven alchemist, Hu Jun.
So long as the Ma Clan Auction House held an auction, Hu Jun would be present.
"Hmm?"
Hu Jun was an old man over 70 years old, and when he saw Ma Qin arrive, he asked curiously. "Manager Qin, is something the matter?"
Ma Qin passed over the medicinal pill bottle in his hand. "Lord Hu Jun, this is an item that a guest wants to auction in our auction house … Help me take a look and see if there's anything special about it."
"What's this?"
Hu Jun received the medicinal pill bottle and asked curiously.
"Origin Strengthening Pill."
The corners of Ma Qin's mouth curled into a bitter smile.
Origin Strengthening Pill?
Hu Jun couldn't help but be stunned, then he frowned. "Isn't this nonsense? Which guest had consigned this item for auction? Unless it's an Origin Strengthening Pill with a purity of 70% or above, otherwise, there's utterly no value in auctioning it. "
"Lord Hu Jun, the guest that auctioned this Origin Strengthening Pill seems to have an extraordinary background, so I didn't directly send it back to him. Help me take a look first. If it really doesn't work, I'll send it back to him. "
Ma Qin spoke with slight difficulty.
Hu Jun nodded, then opened the medicinal pill bottle and poured out the medicinal pill within.
"One?"
