Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 46
Chapter 46: Ethereal Illusion Mansion, Gu Xi’s Move
The appearance of the Ethereal Illusion Mansion caused a small commotion.
“Rumor has it that Ethereal Illusion Mansion doesn’t appear easily. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the appearance of this sect. I think they must have heard of the Flawless pill before they came. It looks like there’s going to be a good show at the Capital Dao Conference this time.”
“Quite a few important figures have come from the fourth and fifth floors. I wonder who will be the one to receive this Flawless quality pill.”
“I heard that the Ethereal Illusion Mansion likes to collect rare treasures and have incomplete Cultivation Methods that are of great research value. It’s said that they have special methods that can be used to deduce these incomplete Cultivation Methods.”
The competition for the auctioned items was extremely intense, but with this item, other than the Ethereal Illusion Mansion, there was actually no one who bid for it.
After all, although this Cultivation Method sounded awesome, it was incomplete. Moreover, cultivating it could easily lead to Qi deviation and life-threatening danger. In addition, no one wanted to offend the Ethereal Illusion Mansion, so after a while, no one spoke again.
Just as the host was about to finish…
Suddenly, a cold male voice sounded.
“20,000 high-grade spirit stones!”
The entire venue instantly became silent.
This voice! It was actually coming from the sixth floor!
“Did I hear wrongly? Is it someone from the sixth floor? Who is the person sitting on the sixth floor?”
“What’s going on? Didn’t Manager Fan say that the sixth floor is not open to the public? Even a super force from the Eastern Wastelands can only be placed on the fifth floor.”
One had to know that the higher the floor, the more important the status was. Even if the head of the royal family came to the sixth floor, they might not be able to go up. It had already been empty for more than a hundred years, but now, someone had once again taken over
It could be said that this person’s status was above almost everyone else.
For a moment, the crowd was in a heated discussion. Everybody wanted to find out who the person on the sixth floor was and what his status was.
The people on the fifth floor already knew that it was the person that Manager Fan had brought up earlier. As for the floor below, they did not know what had happened up there.
Wu Huaqing and the others who were sitting in the private room naturally knew that it was Gu Xi who had called out the price. They could not help but gasp.
“Gu, Senior Brother Gu, he…”
The Supreme Purity Sect disciple stammered, “He actually has so many spirit stones?”
One had to know that their entire team only had half of the spirit stones if they added them up.
Wu Huaqing understood the hidden meaning of his words. ‘If he could sit on the sixth floor, how could he not have so many spirit stones?’
The shock in his eyes still did not fade away. His intuition told him that Gu Xi must have an even bigger secret. Otherwise, why would the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce treat him so seriously?
Could it be the Flawless pill?!
An impossible guess appeared in Wu Huaqing’s mind, and a storm instantly rose in his heart. He was so lost in thought that he did not even hear the surrounding disciples even after they shouted several times.
How was this possible? According to Gu Xi’s strength, he definitely could not refine such a pill. However, how did he get it? For a moment, Wu Huaqing’s thoughts were flying around. He turned around and felt that he was thinking too much.
“Elder Wu, why do you think Senior Brother Gu bought this Cultivation Method?”
The disciples of Supreme Purity Sect were very curious. Wu Huaqing shook his head, indicating that he did not know either. After all, Gu Xi had too many secrets.
On the fifth floor, in a private room.
Baizhi rarely went out to travel. She spent most of her time following Lu Haoxuan. At this moment, her eyes were filled with curiosity.
“Master, come and take a look. This Cultivation Method is so unique that it can absorb other people’s cultivation and spiritual power for its own use.”
Lu Haoxuan, who was meditating on the couch, had his eyes closed. He was already in a meditative state. He looked as if nothing could interest him.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Baizhi pouted and said with a hint of eagerness, “Why don’t we buy it and play with it?”
Others might be worried that she would go crazy during the cultivation process, but she was not worried. After all, the master who was known as the Alchemy Emperor was here and was not for display.
There were all kinds of top-grade pills, such as Exorcism Pills and Calming Pills. Even if she went crazy, Lu Haoxuan would be able to pull her back, not to mention that Baizhi’s own strength was not bad.
Seeing that she seemed to be ready to bid, Lu Haoxuan, who was meditating at the side, opened his eyes helplessly. “Zhi’er, don’t mess around. We are only here for the Flawless pill.”
After saying that, he frowned, obviously displeased with this cultivation method. “Such things are after all external objects. Borrowing the power of others is ultimately not the right path.”
Regarding this, Baizhi was noncommittal. She could not help but mutter, “It’s as if taking pills isn’t borrowing the power of the outside world.”
“How can the two be compared? You’d better think about how to bid for the Flawless elixir. Our competitors this time are all extremely powerful.”
He could already feel several extraordinary auras at the scene. It was obvious that their goals were the same. Even if Lu Haoxuan was the Alchemy Emperor, he was not completely confident that he would be able to bid for the pill.
Baizhi did not mind. Instead, she thought of Gu Xi, whom she had caught a glimpse of just now.
“Master, do you remember the man who went upstairs earlier? What’s his background?”
Lu Haoxuan stroked his beard. “If I’m not wrong, he must be the person who put up the pill for auction.”
As expected of the experienced Alchemy Emperor, he was able to see through Gu Xi’s identity at a glance. It was not that Lu Haoxuan was arrogant, but that even the Alchemy Emperor was unable to enter the sixth floor.
Presumably, the only person who could enter the sixth floor was the person who auctioned such divine-grade pills.
Bai Zhi was shocked. “He’s so young.”
On the other side, in the private room where the Ethereal Illusion Mansion was located.
At this moment, there were a few old men sitting there. Their hair and beard were all white, and their eyes were bright and full of spirit. They emitted a powerful aura that made people afraid to look at them directly.
There was also a young master in black. His aura was steady, making it impossible to tell the depth of his aura. However, those old men seemed to respect him and their expressions were extremely respectful.
