Chapter 1392: Immortal Herb Auction
Deer Gate Immortal Dynasty
Immortal Capital
There was still about a month before the deadline of two months. Ning Qi finally returned to the Immortal Capital. No one knew what Ning Qi had been doing during this period of time.
Wang Ting received the news from his spy immediately.
"You said he went to the Immortal Herb Pavilion? There's an auction there today that specializes in selling immortal herbs over fifty thousand years old. Let's go and have a look! "
After a pause, Wang Ting said lightly, "This time, no matter what spirit herb he wants, we'll snatch it. How many Deer Gate immortal coins do you two have?"
"I have one hundred and thirty thousand."
"One hundred and fifty thousand."
"Oh, plus my two hundred thousand, four hundred thousand Deer Gate immortal coins should be enough."
Wang Ting grinned.
Immortal Herb Pavilion.
Fei Yuting was with Pill Venerable Lang Ya, while Great Sage Xuan Zhen was accompanying Ning Qi and Old Ghost. Today's Immortal Herb Auction was about to begin.
At this moment, Ning Qi and the others were in a box with a special restrictive array. There were hundreds of similar boxes here, and each box had its own escape route. Therefore, the guests who participated in the auction wouldn't have a chance to meet each other.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's Immortal Herb Auction begins now. The first immortal herb is a fifty thousand years old 'Thousand Gold Lotus'. This kind of Thousand Gold Lotus is very rare, and it won't appear even once in several years. Please seize this opportunity. The starting price is ten thousand Deer Gate immortal coins, and each increment must be no less than five hundred Deer Gate immortal coins."
The host of the Immortal Herb Auction slowly took out a jade box, opened it to show everyone, and immediately closed it.
"Twenty thousand!"
A voice that was obviously disguised came from Room 13.
"Thirty thousand!"
"Fifty thousand!"
The starting price of the Thousand Gold Lotus was only ten thousand, but after a few calls, it had already soared to fifty thousand. No one was willing to raise it by five hundred or five hundred.
The host showed a faint smile and said, "Fifty thousand going once, fifty thousand going twice …"
"One hundred thousand."
Ning Qi said expressionlessly in room nine. Although his voice was slightly disguised, anyone who was familiar with him would still be able to recognize that it was him.
"Could it be that the Thousand Gold Lotus is needed to refine the Great Restoring Pill?"
Old Ghost's eyes slightly moved.
Bai Cheng and the other two looked at each other, and a hint of joy flashed in their hearts. At least they now knew that the Supreme Grand Recovery Pill required a Celestial Medicine. Most of the alchemists who reverse-engineered the pill recipe relied on all kinds of ambiguous information, and after thousands or even tens of thousands of attempts, they only had a slight success rate in deriving the pill recipe.
If it wasn't for their relationship with Elder Ghost, they might not have been able to sit in this private room today. Naturally, they wouldn't have been able to know what immortal herbs and spirit medicines Ning Qi needed.
In private room number 23.
Wang Ting and the other two looked at each other.
"This voice, it should be him!"
"I've already asked around, and there's only a single set of immortal herbs being auctioned today. If there's another fifty thousand-year-old Thousand-Year-Old Gold Lotus, we'll have to wait at least three to five years!"
"Name your price then!"
Wang Ting sneered, "100,500."
"The Thousand Gold Lotus is worth sixty thousand Deer Gate Celestial Coins at most. Why are there two people bidding above a hundred thousand today?"
"He's probably in a hurry to take it back to refine pills!"
Looks like I can only wait for a few more years. With 100,000 Deer Gate Celestial Coins, I can buy a 60,000 year old Thousand-Year-Old Golden Lotus!
Many of the cultivators in the private rooms who were interested in the Thousand Gold Lotuses sighed with regret and prepared to wait for the next immortal grass or spirit medicine.
"100,500! Are there any higher bids? "
A hint of joy flashed in the host's eyes as he looked towards Room 9.
"200,000."
Ning Qi said lightly.
"200,000?"
"This guy can't be acting, right?"
"Have you ever seen such a stupid person? The Thousand Gold Lotus, which was worth at most sixty thousand yuan, was shouted for two hundred thousand yuan? He must really need the Thousand Gold Lotus, that's why he dares to offer such a high price! "
In private room number 23.
A trace of coldness flashed in Wang Ting's eyes. Two hundred thousand Deer Sect celestial coins for a fifty thousand year old Thousand Gold Lotus, no one would do such a stupid thing. He was absolutely sure that the person who made the bid was Ning Qi!
"Brother Wang, the price of this Thousand Golden Lotus Root has reached 200,000. Should we just forget about it?"
The other two cultivators hesitated for a moment before saying.
Their Deer Sect celestial coins were saved up with great difficulty in Da 'an City, and they were prepared to use them to buy pill formulas or immortal grass or spirit medicine that they needed. If they bought this Thousand Gold Lotus Root, it would be a huge loss for them. They did not have any pill formulas on hand, and they needed the Thousand Gold Lotus Root!
"If you don't kill the snake, you will be harmed by it. He wants to concoct the Supreme Grand Restore Pill, and I will not let him get what he wants!"
Wang Ting sneered.
"250,000!"
"Hiss … 250,000, that's several times the price!"
"Could it be that the people in Room 9 and Room 23 are the geniuses of the five sects?"
"It should be. Other than them, which cultivator would not treat Deer Sect celestial coins as money? The Deer Sect Celestial Dynasty is vast, and the five sects alone account for three-tenths of it. The Deer Sect celestial coins they earn every year are in the hundreds of millions. It's too easy for them to take out a few hundred thousand! "
In Room 9.
"I still have 300,000 Deer Sect celestial coins here."
Grand Sage Xuanzhen's voice rang in Ning Qi's ears.
Ning Qi looked at Grand Sage Xuanzhen in surprise. A cultivator from the Green Dragon Continent must have put in a lot of effort to save 300,000 Deer Sect celestial coins!
"My young friend Beixuan, if you don't have enough Deer Sect celestial coins, I still have some left."
Ghost Lord smiled.
"The three of us have some as well."
Bai Cheng and the other two smiled.
Only Li Kunxin lowered his head and said nothing. Everyone here was richer than him, and he still owed Ghost Lord a lot of Deer Sect celestial coins!
Ning Qi smiled and said calmly, "400,000 Deer Sect celestial coins. Friend in Room 23, please give me some face. I need this Thousand Golden Lotus to save my life."
On the other side of booth number twenty-three, Wang Ting was slightly startled. He didn't expect Ning Qi to take out four hundred thousand Deer Gate celestial coins. With a thought, he cursed in his mind, "Damn old man, it must be him. Otherwise, how could a country bumpkin cultivator from the Azure Dragon Continent take out such a sum of money!"
The three of them looked at each other, and Wang Ting smirked. "I must get this Thousand Golden Lotus. 480,000 Deer Sect celestial coins!"
Wang Ting's voice was hoarse after he purposely hid it, making it hard to hear. The cultivators in the auction straightened their backs after seeing the high price of four hundred and eighty thousand gold lotuses. Their faces were filled with doubt. Could it be that the Thousand Golden Lotus had other uses?
The host was laughing so hard that he thought the Thousand Golden Lotus would sell for sixty to seventy thousand Deer Sect celestial coins at most. He did not expect the Thousand Golden Lotus to reach a high price of 480,000 Deer Sect celestial coins!
