Chapter 619: Chapter 259: Dragon and Phoenix Twin Pills, Core Formation Spirit Pill_2
They couldn’t comprehend how many years they would have to save up to afford enough Spirit Stones for a Medium Grade Magic Item.
Except for robbing and killing, they couldn’t think of a second way to obtain such a precious item.
Only Luo Chen stayed calm as always.
After all, it was only a few hundred thousand Spirit Stones.
If he saved up for a few more years, he could afford to buy one legitimately.
Just like the Golden Core Ascendant Master from Qingdan Valley who used Spirit Stones he had diligently saved over many years to purchase the item he desired.
“Perhaps it’s not as hard.”
“Most cultivators from Qingdan Valley know some Pill Refinement Techniques, their speed of acquiring wealth is not slower than mine.”
“The astronomical sum that ordinary cultivators find hard to imagine is simply loose change to them.”
That’s what he thought.
The Golden Core Ascendant Master from Qingdan Valley did the same.
He bought three magic items, two of lower grade and one of medium grade.
He was much more generous than the other Golden Core Ascendant Masters.
Time flowed slowly.
The auction reached its climax when Jueqing Fairy brought out a Dragon Transformation Pill and an Ice Phoenix Pill at the end!
“The Dragon Transformation Pill comes from Qingdan Valley and the Ice Phoenix Pill from Ice Castle, both are Third Order Elixirs.”
“If taken together, coupled with our Ice Castle’s Secret Technique, it can increase the Core Formation success rate by ten percent!”
“The starting bid is ten thousand Spirit Stones, let the bidding begin!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place became agitated!
In the private box, the breathing of everyone from Luo Tian Creed became hurried.
Including Luo Chen’s.
However, he eventually suppressed the longing in his heart.
Dragon Transformation Pills were not hard to find, they were special elixirs put up for sale by Qingdan Valley from time to time.
Ice Phoenix Pills were relatively rare, usually only circulated internally within the Ice Castle.
But concerning their prices, being Third Order Elixirs, a bottle only costs a few thousand Spirit Stones.
One pill would only cost a few hundred Spirit Stones.
Combining the two resulted in a high starting bid of ten thousand. The main reason was the secret technique brought out by the Ice Castle.
“It can increase the Core Formation success rate by ten percent!”
Reflecting on this, Luo Chen casually said, “Don’t think about it, this isn’t something we can get involved in.”
The people around him blinked in surprise, but seeing the continuous bid raising in the auction room, they all silently put aside the thought they shouldn’t have had.
They were all Late Stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators!
Among them was Chu Kui, who Luo Chen knew.
The patriarch of Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng Family, although only at the Sixth Level Foundation Establishment, bravely joined the bidding.
Besides them, there were several powerful existences he couldn’t identify.
This was a feast for Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Lower stage cultivators in the Early and Middle stages could only watch covetously.
The Golden Core Cultivators at higher stages, remained indifferent, as if they had no interest at all.
Eventually, the Core Formation Spirit Pill was purchased by a man with rosy lips and pearly white teeth, and jade-like face.
“That’s Xuan Yu, the actual manager of Peach Mountain.”
“Rumor has it that he is the beloved confidant of Peach Blossom Ancestor from Hundred Flowers Palace!”
Sima Huiniang, trying to suppress her excitement, quietly explained the man’s background to Luo Chen.
Upon hearing this, Luo Chen suddenly understood.
Indeed, ordinary Rogue Cultivators could hardly covet the Core Formation Spirit Pill given its significance.
Just look at the people involved in the bidding just now!
Most of them have the backing of a Great Sect, either as branch families or as vassals.
Take Xuan Yu as an example. Although he is not a member of Hundred Flowers Palace, he is the beloved confidant of Peach Blossom Ancestor and even manages a Peach Mountain on behalf of Hundred Flowers Palace.
In comparison, how can other Rogue Cultivators compete?
Chu Kui’s disappointed expression was quite noticeable in Luo Chen’s line of sight.
Shaking his head, Luo Chen stood up.
“Let’s go!”
“To participate in the competition for the Core Formation Spirit Pill, it wouldn’t be our turn until a hundred or two hundred years from now.”
He looked nonchalant.
But others didn’t feel the same way.
Many people were still yearning for Xuan Yu, who looked so pleased with himself, when they were leaving.
Even if it could only increase the Core Formation success rate by ten percent, it can still increase it by ten percent!
The difficulty of Core Formation is a hundred or even a thousand times more than Foundation Establishment!
This difficulty is something that others wouldn’t comprehend unless they personally experience it.
But from the scant number of Golden Core Cultivators in Yu Ding Realm, we can get a sense of it.
In Yu Ding Realm, Qi Refinement Cultivators number in the millions, and there are thousands in the Foundation Establishment Generation.
However, Golden Core Cultivators from the seven Great Sects combined do not even exceed a hundred!
This is truly one in ten thousand, even one in a hundred thousand!
The reason for such sparse numbers of Golden Core Cultivators is because the Core Formation is too hard.
Xuan Yu now has a Core Formation Spirit Pill, and he is also backed by the Peach Blossom Ancestor.
There’s a high chance of him becoming a Golden Core Ascendant Master in a few decades.
By that time, he would be able to join Hundred Flowers Palace as a Golden Core Ascendant Master and become the fourth Golden Core in the Hundred Flowers Palace excluding the existing three!
…
Upon leaving the private room, Luo Chen, led by Sima Huiniang, headed straight for a Side Hall of Binglan Palace.
This was where transactions for goods and Spirit Stones took place.
After all, in such a large auction, the amount of resources involved is too big and it wouldn’t be feasible to settle payments after each transaction on the spot.
Therefore, all calculations were postponed until the end of the auction.
Once inside the room secured by an Array, Luo Chen took out ninety thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones.
Among which, twelve thousand was given by Kang Xianqiong, specifically to pay for the Third Order Healing Pill.
The remaining seventy-eight thousand was the expense he incurred in this auction.
“Friend Luo, here are your items, you can check them now.”
The person in charge of settling accounts in this room was a familiar face to Luo Chen.
Shi Boying from Ice Castle.
Luo Chen gave a faint smile, accepted the items, and without pretending to be generous, he carefully started checking.
