Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 1748
1748 The Formidable Marrow Cleansing Pill (1)
Chi Shuyan had previously treated Fan Yin as an ignorant and arrogant kid, but as expected of the heir of the Fan family; he saw the big picture and had more insight than ordinary people his age.
The auction downstairs continued. The fifth item was a 1,000-year-old medicinal herb. This 1,000-year-old medicinal herb was called the Bodhi Transformation Fruit; it had a purifying effect and was especially used to counter baleful aura and cadaveric qi.
Moreover, it was the main ingredient for the Fiend Purification Pill.
The Fiend Purification Pill was different from the Fiend Suppression Pill. In the cultivation world, the Fiend Purification Pill was comparable to having a golden core, and it had the miraculous effect of extending one’s lifespan. Not only could it purify baleful aura, with a suitable cultivation technique, the baleful aura could also be fused with the body so that it wouldn’t cause any harm during cultivation.
So, from the moment this 1,000-year Bodhi Transformation Fruit was revealed, Chi Shuyan’s eyes never left the tray.
!!
1,000-year-old medicinal herbs were very popular no matter what. As soon as this 1,000-year-old medicinal herb appeared, the auction hall down below almost went crazy. Audience members directly called out bids, until the price went up to 10,000 spirit stones or 20,000 jade stones; even then, it didn’t stop increasing!
Chi Shuyan’s face turned dark. Fan Yin also saw that Master Chi’s expression wasn’t right – it seemed she was very interested in this 1,000-year-old herb. He immediately helped to bid 20,000 spirit stones.
It was a pity that everyone else at the auction was just as interested in this 1,000-year-old herb, and the price kept getting higher and higher. Chi Shuyan stopped Fan Yin in time.
Fan Yin was a bit stumped. “Master Chi, why don’t you let me bid? Don’t you want this 1,000-year-old Bodhi Transformation Fruit?”
Although Chi Shuyan wanted it, she didn’t want to push her luck and owe the Fan family a favor. Although they were now in cooperation with each other, it was her principle to know when to stop. Most importantly, she couldn’t take out even one spirit stone.
Of course, there was another way for her to obtain this Bodhi Transformation Fruit.
Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and said, “Young Master Yin, forget it. Help me do something else later: Help me keep an eye on the person who buys this herb, and then bring them to this private room!”
Fan Yin nodded blankly. “Okay, Master Chi!”
In the end, this 1,000-year-old herb was bought by someone in private room number 2 for 100,000 spirit stones. Coincidentally, private room 2 was next door, and Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief.
Because she was thinking about this Bodhi Transformation Fruit herb, she wasn’t interested in the last item. When it was revealed, Chi Shuyan saw that it was actually a level 3 medicinal pill, and was even more uninterested. As for what kind of medicinal pill it was, she didn’t pay attention. Conversely, the atmosphere down below became even more lively. When the last item was revealed, everyone shouted out prices like crazy, hoping to obtain this level 3 Energy Recovery Pill.
Chi Shuyan took in the atmosphere at the auction and thought to herself that medicinal pills were probably very popular here. She would use medicinal pills to trade for that 1,000-year Bodhi Transformation Fruit later. This should be good enough. Thinking this, she heaved a sigh of relief.
The Fan auction ended after the level 3 Energy Recovery Pill was auctioned off. Fan Yin didn’t forget Master Chi’s previous exhortation. When the auction was about to end, he immediately went to the private room next door. As soon as the other party came out, he immediately invited them to private room 3. At first, Chi Shuyan was worried that Fan Yin wouldn’t succeed. She was about to go out as well, when Fan Yin brought the other party in.
The person who entered was a man in his forties. He had an imposing aura – it was clear he had an extraordinary identity. At that moment, he looked at Chi Shuyan with a searching gaze. If he hadn’t been told that it was an alchemist who had invited him to the private room, he wouldn’t have bothered to come at all.
The middle-aged man was called He Donglai. At that moment, he looked at the young lady in front of him warily and probed, “Are you an alchemist?”
It was said that physiognomy reflected a person’s character; so far, Chi Shuyan had a good impression of the middle-aged man in front of her. He had honest and sincere features, so he probably wasn’t someone who hid evil intentions. Moreover, she did want that Bodhi Transformation Fruit very much. She didn’t waste time, and got straight to the point. “I’m indeed an alchemist. I invited you over this time to discuss something. You bought that 1,000-year-old Bodhi Transformation Fruit. I want to make a deal with you for it. How about that?”
When He Donglai heard that the other party’s goal was the Bodhi Transformation Fruit in his hand, he immediately looked vigilant and impatient. Without thinking, he directly refused. “Sorry, this herb is very important to me. I don’t plan to give it to anyone!”
Fan Yin was a bit angry when he heard how tactless He Donglai was.
If he had known that Master Chi wanted this herb, he would have gotten the manager of the Fan Auction House to give it to her long ago. Unfortunately, this herb had been auctioned off, so the only thing he could do was try and poach it.
Fan Yin still wanted to interrupt and speak up for Master Chi, but Chi Shuyan said patiently, “Mr. He, don’t worry. I would never force you to give it up. I just want to make a deal with you. If you’re still unwilling after I tell you what I have to trade, I won’t force you!”
Seeing that the young lady’s attitude was pretty good, He Donglai’s expression softened and he nodded. “Please speak!”
She was determined to get this herb, so Chi Shuyan immediately took out the bottles of medicinal pills from her Cosmos Ring and introduced them one by one. “These are level 3 Spirit Gathering Pills. This bottle has level 3 Marrow Cleansing Pills, this has Beauty Pills, and the last bottle has level 3 Marrow Recovery Pills!” She explained the effects of each medicinal pill, then looked at He Donglai and said, “Mr. He, choose whatever you want. I want to use one of these to trade for that Bodhi Transformation Fruit.”
As soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, not only did He Donglai gasp, even Fan Yin was stupefied and shocked by Master Chi’s generosity.
Putting the Spirit Gathering Pill and the Beauty Pill aside, the other two were the legendary Marrow Recovery Pill and Marrow Cleansing Pill. One could repair the damage to one’s cultivation, including a crippled dantian; as long as one had the Marrow Recovery Pill, they could cultivate again. The other could cleanse the marrow and transform a person’s aptitude for cultivation. The pill formulas for both pills had long been lost, and they were especially precious. Even Fan Yin, who was from the Fan family, had only heard of these two medicinal pills, and had never seen them before. In terms of medicinal effects and value, these two medicinal pills were even more precious than his level 6 Advancement Pills, especially the Marrow Cleansing Pill. This could improve one’s cultivation aptitude, so one could imagine how precious it was.
If word of these two pills spread, it would definitely cause a huge stir and conflict in the ancient martial world.
Fan Yin’s eyes were glued to the bottles of medicinal pills on the table; he couldn’t tear his gaze away, no matter what. At the thought that they really contained Marrow Cleansing Pills and Marrow Recovery Pills, Fan Yin felt on edge. His hands kept shaking. He looked at the middle-aged man on the side who could choose whichever pill he wanted, and his eyes turned red with envy.
He really felt pain and regret for the Fan Auction House at that moment. If he had known that Master Chi would use the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Marrow Recovery Pill to trade for this herb, he would have hoarded the Bodhi Transformation Fruit no matter what.
The more Fan Yin thought about it, the more regret he felt. No, he had to tell his father about this later and ask if his father still had any Bodhi Transformation Fruits at home.
Fan Yin was already so excited, to say nothing of the middle-aged man who listened as the young lady introduced the medicinal pills, especially the Marrow Cleansing Pill and Marrow Recovery Pill. He shook with excitement and disbelief. He thought he was dreaming, and it was a long while before he realized that this was real.
He Donglai was so excited that his teeth chattered as he hurriedly confirmed, “Are these two really the Marrow Recovery Pill and the Marrow Cleansing Pill? You… aren’t lying to me?”
Seeing that he didn’t believe her, Chi Shuyan immediately uncorked the spirit bottles. Thick and refreshing spiritual energy immediately wafted out. Sure enough, He Donglai’s face changed drastically, and his eyes became even more excited. The veins on his forehead bulged with excitement.
Whether it was the Marrow Cleansing Pill or the Marrow Recovery Pill, one could sense how good they were just from the dense spiritual energy. He had nothing to lose here. He Donglai also felt that the other party, as an alchemist, wouldn’t bother to lie to him.
As soon as he confirmed that this was all true, He Donglai got excited again. It had to be pointed out that the medicinal pills in front of him weren’t ordinary medicinal pills, but the legendary Marrow Cleansing Pill and Marrow Recovery Pill.
The veins on the back of He Donglai’s hands also bulged. He suppressed his giddiness and forced himself to calm down. He said in a hoarse voice, “How do you want to trade?”
Of course, it wouldn’t be one bottle in exchange for the fruit, but one pill for it – it just depended on which medicinal pill he chose.
He Donglai’s body was still trembling as he confirmed the effects of the two medicinal pills. As for the Spirit Gathering Pill and Beauty Everlasting Pill, he didn’t bother to look at them.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t stingy, and patiently repeated the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Marrow Recovery Pill. When He Donglai heard about the medicinal effects of the two pills, especially the Marrow Cleansing Pill, he was so shocked that his vision turned black even though he was mentally prepared.
He was a very principled person, but when he saw the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Marrow Restoration Pill, he really wanted to snatch them up and run away immediately. This thought flashed through his mind, but quickly disappeared.
As for Fan Yin, after listening to Master Chi’s explanation of the Marrow Cleansing Pill and the Marrow Recovery Pill, he also drooled with excitement.
“Which one do you want? Pick whatever you want!” The other party’s eyes were fixed on the bottles of medicinal pills and he didn’t make a decision for a long while, but Chi Shuyan didn’t rush him. It was fine as long as he was interested in her medicinal pills. She motioned for him to sit down and said patiently, “Why don’t you sit down and think about it? I’m not in a hurry!”
