On the stone platform, handprints appeared, dazzling with light. The seals swirled like flower petals, surrounding a pill like stars surrounding the moon, making it appear mysterious and dazzling.
"An eleventh-rank supreme pill, and moreover... And the Heavenly Thunder Mark—what is this... Tribulation Pill! All
the experts present were well-traveled and experienced individuals, instantly discerning the true nature of this pill.
Seeing this pill, Huang Feiyan's body involuntarily trembled. Although she didn't recognize it, she sensed its power.
As the hundred flowers bloomed, endless soul power flowed through the grand hall, relentlessly channeling it toward it. It gathered the souls of all things, absorbed the spirits of heaven and earth, and shimmered like jade hands, radiating light. The heavenly Dao roared—the scene was truly astonishing.
After pausing for a full three breaths, the middle-aged man finally spoke in admiration:
"This pill is called the Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill. It's an extremely rare Tribulation Pill. Such a pill is rare not only now, but even in ancient times."
Everyone knows that the eleventh-tier pills we see now are all nurtured through formations, not tribulation pills.
Because the failure rate of Tribulation Pills is extremely high—often said to be less than one in ten—but in reality, as an alchemist, I must assure you that the success rate is absolutely not more than one percent.
Refining an eleventh-rank top-grade pill is already as difficult as climbing to the sky. Sometimes, it's not just about strength—you also need luck.
Even alchemy masters rarely refine more than a handful of eleventh-grade supreme pills in a lifetime.
Some masters, after spending their entire lives on strength, still couldn't refine a top-grade eleventh-grade pill, and died in melancholy.
Countless alchemy geniuses have even lost their lives to refine an eleventh-rank top-tier pill. This is why this Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Tribulation Pill is so precious.
Please don't misunderstand, everyone. I'm not saying this to exaggerate this pill, because it was provided by a prodigy. How much it sells has nothing to do with our Dongfang family... "
Not from the Dongfang family?" Everyone was shocked—someone actually sold this Tribulation Pill?
For a moment, many people secretly glanced at Long Chen. Long Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. This guy really talks a lot—wouldn't this just push him into the eye of the storm?
"Long Chen, is this Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill really yours?" Beitang Rushuang couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Mm," Long Chen nodded. There was no need to lie to them.
"You're really stupid. This Tribulation Pill is so precious—how can you sell it?" Beitang, like frost, couldn't help but fall silent.
"I'm short on money." Long Chen shrugged and said somewhat aggrievedly, "I'm not a wealthy man like you, so I don't worry about food or drink."
Beitang Rushuang's gaze was like looking at a prodigal youth, which made Long Chen find it amusing. This thing, you can have as much as you want in the future. In your eyes, it's a treasure, but to me, it's nothing special.
Although the middle-aged man didn't say who the owner of the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill was, they had basically guessed that they had heard news that Long Chen had obtained the Nine Lotus Soul Gathering Pill from the Moon Refining Star Furnace.
This Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill and the Nine Lotus Soul-Gathering Pill have similar effects. If one person owns two pills at once, they can indeed sell one.
"Although many people know the effects of the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill, I still need to explain in detail. This pill can condense the soul and nourish the primordial spirit. After taking it, it leaves seeds within the primordial spirit.
This is what is called the 'Ren Dan Hui' (Human-Taking Pill Fusion). The first dose nourishes the soul, and for a year, the medicinal effect does not wane, allowing the soul to continue nourishing through its power.
The Thousand Hands Condensing Heaven Dao, myriad paths nourishing the soul—this is the effect of the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill. Its medicinal effects are definitely several times, or even more than ten times, of ordinary eleventh-rank supreme pills.
Alright, that's all for the pill's effects. Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Tribulation Pill, starting bid is 500 Nether Spirit Pearls, with each bid increase no less than 50 pills. Bidding—start! When
the introduction of the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill was mentioned, even the middle-aged man himself became a bit excited. As an alchemist, auctioning off a Tribulation Pill was already an honor.
"One thousand Nether Spirit Pearls."
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Huang Feiyan's voice rang out, instantly doubling the price. Clearly, she was determined to win it.
"One thousand one hundred pearls."
However, her price didn't intimidate others. Beitang Rushuang also made a move, adding a hundred Nether Spirit Pearls.
"You want this Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill?" Long Chen was taken aback.
"Of course, who wouldn't want such a treasure?" Beitang Rushuang directly rolled her eyes at Long Chen.
Long Chen was stunned, then suddenly understood. He had forgotten one thing: these ancient monsters must have all used pills to enhance their soul power.
Given their status, eleventh-grade top-grade pills are nothing special—they can take whatever they want.
But every pill has its limitations. Usually, the first pill can be 100% effective, the second is halved, the third is halved, and the fourth is basically ineffective. Even if it works, it's negligible and can be ignored.
Therefore, after taking ordinary top-grade eleventh-grade pills, their bodies developed resistance. To improve further, they needed to take the Tribulation Pill, which could only unleash 100% of its medicinal power.
Soul power—except for Long Chen the monster, almost everyone desperately wants to improve it, so soul-type pills are especially expensive.
"1,300 pieces,"
"1,500 pieces,"
"..."
The price skyrocketed, quickly breaking the 2,000 mark. After reaching 2,000, Beitang Rushuang shook her head and ultimately gave up.
Although this Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill was precious, under these circumstances, it was impossible to buy it at a real price. Everyone was competing, and the final price would definitely exceed its true value.
Even at the price of two thousand Nether Spirit Pearls, seven experts were still competing. The Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill was good, but it wasn't something she needed and didn't need to fight for it. However, seeing such a good item and unable to compete was indeed frustrating.
"2,800"
"2,900"
"..."
quickly rose to 2,900 yuan. After 2,900, most people gave up, leaving only two people left.
One was Huang Feiyan, and the other was Dan Immortal Yu Qingxuan. This surprised everyone—why was Dan Xianzi fighting over the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensation Pill? Dan Valley itself is for alchemy.
"Fairy Dan, this Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill is very useful to me. I wonder if you could show mercy? Feiyan will surely repay her in the future." Huang Feiyan actually started to speak softly, which showed just how important this pill was to her.
Dan Fairy hesitated for a moment and said, "This Thousand-Hand Soul-Condensing Pill is different from ordinary Tribulation Pills. Its unique refining technique is very interesting to me. Sorry, but I can't part with it." "
HeardHuang Feiyan's words made Huang Feiyan furious. She had already lowered her stance, speaking almost in a pleading tone. This Dan Fairy was going too far.
"Losing your temper is instinct; not losing your temper is a skill. Anger can't solve problems; only by calming down can you find the key to solving them." Beside Huang Feiyan, Kunpengzi, who had been resting with his eyes closed, said calmly.
Only then did Huang Feiyan take a deep breath to calm herself and say, "If Fairy Dan is interested in this pill, you might as well give it to Feiyan first. After Feiyan wins it, I can lend it to you for ten days to study. How about that?" Huang
Feiyan knew that what interested Fairy Dan in this pill was not its efficacy, but its refining technique.
She wasn't interested in the refining techniques and came up with a compromise to avoid a head-on fight between the two. To be honest, she was indeed a bit afraid of the Dan Fairy.
After all, Dan Valley almost controls the lifeblood of pills across the entire Tianwu Continent. No one knows how much wealth Dan Valley has accumulated, but just thinking about it makes it clear that the numbers are truly unimaginable.
Therefore, Huang Feiyan dared not confront Fairy Dan in terms of financial power, and Dan Valley and the Xuan Beast Clan were not enemies; in some ways, they were allies, so there was no need to be hostile.
Faced with Huang Feiyan's request for peace, Dan Fairy pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Very well. Since we've talked this far, Qingxuan has no choice but to reluctantly let go." "
Thank you!"
Huang Feiyan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Fairy Dan. In the end, she accepted the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill for the price of 2,950 Nether Spirit Pearls.
The previous 2,900 Nether Spirit Pearls were ordered by Fairy Dan, so Huang Feiyan had to spend fifty more. Still, she was overjoyed.
"This is clearly cheating." Long Chen couldn't help but say bitterly.
If the two kept fighting, Long Chen would be the ultimate beneficiary, and the auction could still be negotiated. What kind of auction is this?
"That's about it. Normally, an eleventh-rank top-grade pill only costs a little over thirty Nether Spirit Pearls.
Even at ten times the price, it's only three hundred. Two thousand nine hundred and fifty Nether Spirit Pearls—almost a hundredfold price—almost sky-high price. You should be content. Nangong Zuiyue looked at the indignant Long Chen and couldn't help but persuade him.
"This price is indeed very high. Long Chen, you didn't predict that Huang Feiyan would definitely buy it and Dan Fairy would definitely compete before making a move, did you?" A trace of doubt appeared on Beitang Rushuang's face.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Long Chen glared at her and said.
Except for Ye Zhiqiu, everyone else was amused by him. This guy really is mean.
In fact, Long Chen only schemed against Huang Feiyan, not Dan Xianzi. He originally wanted to compete with Huang Feiyan himself, knowing she would definitely go all out to buy this Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill.
But that middle-aged auctioneer was an idiot who talked too much, which exposed Long Chen. If he were to bid, it would be too obvious and would be despised by others.
Fortunately, Fairy Dan followed in raising the price, otherwise Huang Feiyan might have taken advantage of the bargain. However, 2,950 Nether Spirit Pearls was an unimaginable fortune for Long Chen.
With the auction of the Thousand-Hand Soul Condensing Pill concluded, everyone's attention was focused on the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "Take a close look at the item up for auction, because it's related to—the Great Emperor!" The
middle-aged man's words made all the powerful figures present tremble in their hearts.
