Chapter 138: The Rebirth Pill!

  "Two and a half million!" After hesitating for a moment, Master Gu followed suit with his bid, a hint of malice in his eyes as he secretly contemplated thoroughly investigating this person later. Even if they were from an ancient family, he would make them pay.

  The entire venue was taken aback. The two individuals inexplicably started bidding against each other, and the price of the Blood Vein Stone almost tripled. Amidst their confusion, many people began to scrutinize the Blood Vein Stone.

  "Haha... such an amusing thing... I'll bid three million. Is there anyone brave enough to challenge me?" Suddenly, a domineering voice echoed throughout the auction hall.

  The crowd erupted in shock! The person who had been at odds with Elder Wang had made his move. Would he try to deceive them again? Could it be that these two were in cahoots? Did they even have the item?

  "What's this kid up to? Spending three million on such a trinket," Meng Yunxi felt irritated inside. Earlier, she had relayed a message for Yang Tian, asking Qingyuan to make a move and divert attention.

  "Hmph, truly youthful arrogance. Young man, you have quite the spirit. I shall not compete with you further," Master Gu slowly sat down, his voice laced with mockery. However, deep down, he felt an inexplicable sense of loss, as if a peerless treasure had slipped through his fingers.

  "Damn it, I finally got it," Yang Tian slumped back in his seat, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. Such a divine material was dirt cheap even at twenty million Blood Stones.

  Seeing this, Yang Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief. His tense nerves relaxed as he recalled the items refined from these divine materials. Not only did they grow rapidly, but they could even devour the bloodlines left behind by some powerful beings!

  "Hehe, although this Bloodthirsty Demon Crystal is quite small, I have another divine material in my secret cave. Although its quality is slightly inferior to the Bloodthirsty Demon Crystal, it's sufficient for crafting a small sword," Yang Xiao said with a beaming smile.

  Upon hearing Yang Xiao mention the secret cave, Yang Tian felt an itch in his heart. A cave left behind by an ancient powerhouse, soon to be solely his, brought a sense of happiness to his face.

  "Hehe, Uncle Xiao, you also have a divine material in your secret cave..." Yang Tian came back to his senses and grinned.

  "Hehe, don't get too excited. Whether we can enter the secret cave is another matter," Yang Xiao scolded with a smile.

  "By the way, Uncle Xiao, where is the secret cave?" Yang Tian remembered something and hurriedly asked.

  "Creak."

  The door was flung open, and Meng Yunxi stormed over, throwing the Blood Vein Stone she had examined onto the table. "What are you thinking? This broken stone is worth three million Blood Stones?"

  "Hehe, keep it a secret. You'll find out later," Yang Tian said mysteriously as he stored the Blood Vein Stone into his Ancestral Dragon Ring. The previous demon pill and now the Bloodthirsty Demon Crystal had made him a fortune.

  "You're so weird," Meng Yunxi rolled her eyes and waved her jade hand in front of Yang Tian's face, smiling, "Pay up, three million, big spender."

  "Hehe, can I pay on credit?" Yang Tian scratched his head and looked honest.

  Looking at Yang Tian's pleading face, Meng Yunxi curled her lips, raised her eyebrows, and pretended to be angry. "No way. Mortgage your Five-Colored Medicine Field to me for a while, and I'll cover the three million for you."

  "Keep dreaming," Yang Tian's mouth twitched. He then took out a Void Ring and said, "Inside are five hundred thousand Blood Stones, about twenty Xuan-level weapons, a hundred high-rank Blood Stones, some rare healing pills, and four thousand-year-old spiritual herbs extinct in the outside world. These should be enough."

  These items were painstakingly gathered by Yang Tian, who even had to part with three spiritual herbs to make up the count. He instantly went from being a wealthy man to a pauper.

  After scanning the contents of the Void Ring, Meng Yunxi looked frustrated and rolled her eyes at Yang Tian. "Considering how much you've helped our family, I'll let you off the hook this time."

  "Hehe, thank you," Yang Tian smiled and watched Meng Yunxi leave, sighing involuntarily.

  The auction was nearing its end. A five-thousand-year-old spiritual herb had just sold for a sky-high price and was ultimately taken by an ancient sanctuary.

  "Now, we have the final treasure of this auction," Meng Li's zombie-like face finally squeezed out a smile as she looked around.

  Many people widened their eyes, secretly guessing what treasure would be presented.

  Meng Li smiled and took out a jade bottle. As the lid was opened, golden light burst forth, and a hazy golden mist rose, with an extremely dense medicinal fragrance instantly sweeping through the entire venue.

  Everyone's attention was drawn to the jade bottle. From the emitted fragrance, it was clear that the pill's grade was exceptionally high!

  Meng Li held the pill in her palm—a golden pill surrounded by golden mist. As soon as it appeared in her hand, it flew into the air.

  "It has intelligence!" Everyone in the auction house was shocked, their gazes burning with intensity as they stared at the golden pill. The medicinal power contained within was astonishingly strong.

  "Is this a seventh-tier pill?" Yang Tian's eyes burned with heat. To possess intelligence, it couldn't be just a sixth-tier pill.

  Qingyuan and the others widened their eyes, their gazes fixed on the golden pill. Shan Qu suddenly exclaimed, "This is the Rebirth Pill!"

  "How do you know?" Qingyuan and the other grabbed Shan Qu's clothes, looking fierce as they pressured him. Shan Qu's origins were mysterious; although he claimed to have run away from home, the two were certain he wasn't from the Eastern Continent.

  "This pill is the Rebirth Pill, made with the inner core of a dragon clan's great demon as the main ingredient, along with many other high-year spiritual herbs. Its grade has reached the intermediate level of the seventh tier! It's most effective for cultivators in the Rebirth stage!" Meng Li said with a smile as she slightly clenched her palm.

  A seventh-tier intermediate pill! The entire venue was shocked. There were only a few seventh-tier alchemists in the entire Eastern Continent. Such individuals were highly respected, even by emperors, and were figures that powerful leaders would bow to.

  "Damn, a great demon's inner core," Yang Tian blinked vigorously, glaring at it. The fourth stage of cultivation, Rebirth, was the most crucial among the first four stages, and this pill was most effective for that stage.

  "This pill is indeed excellent," Yang Xiao nodded. The dragon clan's physical bodies were naturally strong, and using this pill as the main ingredient could maximize the body's energy.

  In today's cultivation world, many people no longer focused on physical cultivation, making this pill truly extraordinary.

  "Quiet down," Meng Li waved her hand at the noisy crowd below and said with a smile, "This pill was commissioned by a distinguished alchemist for auction."

  "Soul Nourishing Wood, Dusk River Divine Milk, three drops of Vitality Spring Water, and a plant of eighth-tier spiritual herb. If anyone here can present one of these treasures, the Rebirth Pill will belong to you."

  "Hmph, such a high price," Yang Xiao said with a disdainful face. Just a seventh-tier pill wanting to exchange for these items was simply wishful thinking.

  Soul Nourishing Wood and Dusk River Divine Milk were extremely rare in ancient times, let alone now. An eighth-tier spiritual herb was even harder to find. Yang Xiao had only seen one from afar in the ancient times. These herbs could fly and hide, skilled in concealment techniques; they couldn't possibly be refined into pills.

  The venue fell silent as if dead. The first two items were unheard of by them, let alone obtained.

  "I have Vitality Spring Water," Yang Tian licked his dry lips, feeling an urge to exchange for it. The impact of the seventh-tier pill on him was too great.

  "If no one exchanges, we will start the bidding at the price of high-rank Blood Stones," Meng Li said after a moment of silence, her gaze sweeping over the auction hall slowly.
