A Gathering of Great Powers
"Deal. But I won't give you the Beauty Pill before the deal is completed."
Ning Qi nodded.
"Of course. The auction starts tomorrow. There's still one more day. Please rest here, Young Master."
Ke Changxing said.
Then, he looked at the middle-aged man. "Xiao Wu, take good care of Young Master."
"Yes, Elder Ke!"
The middle-aged man nodded respectfully and looked at Ning Qi. "Young Master, please."
He looked at Ning Qi with a trace of shock and fear in his eyes.
"Okay."
After Ning Qi left, the two grandmasters behind Ke Changxing asked in unison, "Elder, what is this Beauty Pill? Why do you value it so much?"
"This is a pill that has been lost for tens of thousands of years. I don't know if it's real, but if it's real, it will bring great prestige to the Heavenly Strange Auction House and make friends with a few old monsters!"
Ke Changxing smiled.
"It's that powerful?"
The two looked at each other in shock.
The next day, Ke Changxing used his own information channels to announce the auction of the Beauty Calming Pill.
Cloud Rising Sect.
Dry Bones Forbidden Ground.
Outside the forbidden area, there was a stone house with an old woman sitting cross-legged inside. Her long hair was already thirty feet long, extending from the ground to the door. Beside her, there was a flickering lamp with a golden lotus on its base. The light from the lamp shone on her face. It was an incomparably old face. Her eyes were turbid and black spots covered her entire face.
"Elder."
A black shadow appeared outside the stone house and half-knelt at the door.
"What is it?"
The old woman's throat moved slightly, and a hoarse voice came out. It was as piercing as fingernails rubbing on the wall!
"There's news from the Heavenly Strange Market. They want to auction a Beauty Pill."
The black shadow said in a low voice with a hint of excitement.
"What! Beauty Pill! "
The old woman stood up abruptly. Her body that looked like it was about to die exploded with an unparalleled aura. Her long hair fluttered even though there was no wind. It was an extremely eerie scene.
"But I don't know if it's real or not."
"We can't miss it."
The old woman said coldly, "Bring enough Spirit Crystals. We're going to the Heavenly Strange Market!"
"Yes!"
Similar scenes were taking place everywhere. In just a short period of time, at least ten old demons had arrived at the Heavenly Wonders Market. It only took them a day to arrive at the Heavenly Wonders Auction House and meet Ke Changxing.
At this time, the auction was about to begin.
Ke Changxing's body trembled a little. The thirteen old men sitting on the chairs in front of him, who looked like they were about to be buried, gave him a great deal of pressure, so much so that he almost couldn't breathe.
"Ke Changxing, if you make me happy for nothing this time, then you can stop running your auction house."
After a short while, an old man finally spoke first.
The other twelve also nodded slowly.
Ke Changxing's expression changed greatly, and he laughed bitterly in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have released the news so easily. But now it was hard to get off the tiger.
He immediately said, "Seniors, the auction is about to begin. If the pills are fake, I am willing to accept punishment."
…
In the auction hall.
Ning Qi casually found a seat in a corner and sat down. He had seen the list of items, and there was nothing he needed in the auction. Therefore, he only wanted to see how much the Beauty Calming Pill would sell for.
The auctioneer was very eloquent and auctioned off the items one by one. The crowd was also very excited, until the auctioneer was suddenly replaced.
Everyone present was shocked, and at the same time, they were very curious about the last item.
At this time, Ke Changxing walked up the stage with a smile on his face. When he saw Ning Qi, he smiled faintly, but in his heart, he prayed, "Kid, I hope you don't lie to me. Otherwise, I won't let you off even if I become a ghost!"
"Eh, why is Elder Ke here personally?"
"It seems that the last item is not simple!"
"I'm very curious what kind of treasure it is to make Elder Ke, who hasn't shown himself for many years, come personally. It's a pity that I didn't bring enough Spiritual Crystals this time, so I can only watch the show."
The people of the superpowers looked curiously at Ke Changxing, and a trace of anticipation flashed in their eyes.
"Everyone, the last item for auction is an elixir that has been lost for tens of thousands of years."
Ke Changxing's words caused an uproar among the crowd.
"An elixir that has been lost for tens of thousands of years?"
"Aiya, if I knew this would happen, I would have brought all my belongings this time!"
"You don't have to be like this. Elixirs from tens of thousands of years ago are also rubbish elixirs."
"Elder Ke, what kind of elixir is it? Please don't keep us guessing!"
"Yes, tell us quickly!"
"Hehe, this elixir is called the Beauty Elixir, Lower Mystic level. The starting price is 200,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals. Each increase must be at least 10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals! "
Ke Changxing smiled faintly.
"What Beauty Elixir? What's its use? "
"I once read an ancient book that described the Beauty Elixir. It was an extremely common elixir in the Dragon's Land tens of thousands of years ago. Regardless of the Four Mysterious Lands, there were alchemists who could refine this elixir. The effect of this elixir is to maintain one's youth forever. Of course, it's also related to the grade of the elixir!"
"Oh, so it's this kind of elixir. It can't improve one's cultivation, so it's completely useless in my opinion. Why is there such a high starting price? If it's not sold, it'll be embarrassing."
"Yes, if it's a collection, it might have some value. But in terms of practicality, I'm afraid a Lower Mystic level Qi Gathering Pill is better than it!"
Someone's face suddenly showed disdain.
However, there were a few people who were extremely shocked. In their families, there were still old ancestors who were still alive. If they could offer the Beauty Elixir to them, they would be able to obtain great benefits … Thinking of this, a trace of greed flashed in their eyes. They immediately checked if they had enough Spiritual Crystals left to bid for the elixir.
In their opinion, not many people would be willing to bid for such an elixir.
"Alright, everyone, please make your bids."
Ke Changxing said as he looked at the compartments on the second floor.
"I bid 210,000!"
Someone raised his paddle.
Everyone looked at him and sneered. "There's really a fool who wants to buy it?"
"I bid 220,000!"
"I bid 230,000!"
When three or four people started to bid, the mockery in the eyes of the others disappeared. They frowned and pondered. After a while, they suddenly realized!
The elixir itself was not worth much! However, the value behind it was extremely terrifying.
As long as they took it and offered it to a Battle Saint or even a Battle Emperor, what kind of reward would they receive? Thinking of this, they all looked at their shriveled wallets with a trace of unwillingness and regret in their eyes!
When the price was pushed to 300,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals, the others finally stopped bidding. When the bidder revealed a proud smile on his face, he immediately stopped bidding.
A hoarse voice came from the compartment, "1,000,000."
