Chapter 114 - Tier 8 Spirit Pill
Chapter 114 Tier 8 Spirit Pill
Wu Qingce’s heart was already in his throat when he heard the price surged to 18 high tier spirit stones. His eyes kept glancing at his senior brother.
“Why are you always looking at me?” Jiang Beiran, who was sitting upright on the armchair, asked.
“Brother Jiang, aren’t you going to bid this time?”
After stuffing a grape into his mouth, Jiang Beiran turned his head and looked at Wu Qingce. “What are you thinking about? This is a yellow grade magical item. Those Sect Masters go bankrupt will fight for it until they went bankrupt. Do you think I can win?”
Seeing Wu Qingce fall into deep thought, Jiang Beiran shook his head and said, “Don’t think about it. Just watch the show.”
Just as Jiang Beiran had said, when fighting over a yellow grade magical item, these Sect Masters would no longer have the shackles of “thrifty”. They would even buy it even if it would cost their own sects.
Jiang Beiran had some hidden treasures to spend if he wanted the flag, but it was really not worth it.
First of all, the most important thing was that he was not very interested in this yellow grade magical item. Although Lin Nianshan had been bluffing about the function of the Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag, anyone with a discerning eye knew that the biggest selling point of this flag was to strengthen the mystic sense. The so-called mystic sense was the power of exerting mental pressure and see through the opponent’s strength, and so on. Jiang Beiran could do all of this with his mind power. Because mind power and mystic sense were not in the same system, Jiang Beiran could scan a mystic emperor’s strength with his mind power without being noticed by the other party.
In addition, the mystic sense was linked to cultivation. With Jiang Beiran’s cultivation of level five of Qi refinement, even if he used this Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag to strengthen himself, he would still be at rookie level.
Therefore, this Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag was completely incompatible with him. It was not worth fighting for it. Although he was not interested in the magical item itself, Jiang Beiran was very interested in the auction of the yellow grade magical item. This was because it was his first time seeing a magical item being auctioned publicly. It could even be said that it was his first time seeing a magical item being traded.
This was a valuable experience for him. At the very least, it allowed him to know many much spirit stone a yellow grade magical item was worth in the eyes of these mystic king and mystic emperor.
Listening to the various rare spirit wine, talisman treasures, materials, and other treasures that the various Sect Masters were shouting, Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but feel that the foundation of many sects were indeed very solid. It would be great if he had the opportunity to make a deal with them.
As the bidding became more and more intense, the high tier spirit stone quickly became a foil, and the various treasures were the main characters of the bidding.
“I offer a tier 8 Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill. I wonder how many spirit stone it can be worth?”
At this time, a loud and clear voice suppressed the entire crowd, and even Jiang Beiran couldn’t help but be shocked.
“Tier 8!? Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill!?”
Jiang Beiran was shocked. He had to say that today’s auction had really broadened his horizons. As expected of the Sect Masters, their trump cards were truly formidable.
Just like how a peerless tier to yellow grade magical item was a qualitative leap, there was also such a watershed in the classification of medicinal pills.
Tier 1 to tier 3 were relatively common medicinal pills. When it broke through to tier 4, it became a spirit medicine. In the future, its value would double with each advancement of a tier.
When a spirit medicine reached tier 8, it was the same as a peerless tier becoming a magical item. It was a qualitative leap and became a spirit pill. It had the same value as a magical item.
Take this Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill for example. After eating it, not only could it directly raise a mystic king’s cultivation by a small level, but it could also raise the mystic king’s aptitude to a higher level. This meant that the possibility of a mystic king breaking through to the mystic emperor realm would become higher.
If a mystic king who had been stuck in the mystic king realm for a long time was asked to choose between a yellow grade magical item and a Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill, he would definitely choose the latter without hesitation. However, some extremely talented cultivators would choose the former.
Therefore, the value of the two was completely determined by the buyer. This also made Lin Nianshan a little troubled. Before the auction, they had not thought that someone would take out a tier 8 spirit pill. She really could not decide that the Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag was worth the value of a tier 8 spirit pill.
“Dear guest, please wait a moment. I need to go backstage to discuss and apologize to you for the inadequate preparation.”
When Lin Nianshan went backstage, Jiang Beiran noticed that Wu Qingce’s eyes had started to glance at him again.
Jiang Beiran slanted Wu Qingce and asked, “Why? Do you want to try a tier 8 spirit pill?”
“I don’t dare. I’m just curious if you know how to refine a tier 8 spirit pill.”
“I don’t know either.”
“Ah?”
Wu Qingce was stunned. Shouldn’t one know how their limit in alchemy? What did he mean by not knowing?
After thinking for a long time, Wu Qingce still couldn’t figure out what he meant. He cupped his hands and said, “Brother Jiang, please enlighten me.”
“You can slowly figure it out yourself.” After saying that, Jiang Beiran adjusted his sitting posture and waited for the auction to start again. In fact, he was not sure that whether he could refine a tier 8 spirit pill.
In order to refine a tier 8 spirit pill, in addition to the extremely high level of alchemy, all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures were indispensable. In addition, the matching excellent tier cauldron and good charcoal were also indispensable.
In order to obtain these things, one required luck and strength. At present, Jiang Beiran was still far from having enough hardware, so he didn’t know whether he could refine it before he tried it.
Unexpectedly, Lin Nianshan returned shortly, she circulated her mystic energy and said, “Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. After a discussion, our final decision is that the tier 8 Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill can be exchanged with the Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag at the same price.”
After hearing this, Wu Qingce couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Wow! The same price? The Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag is equivalent to twenty-five high tier spirit stones.” Although Jiang Beiran was a bit surprised, he quickly understood the reason.
Yellow grade magical item was rarely seen and not bad, but tier 8 spirit pills were also very rare.
Perhaps there was a high-level person in the Sect of Masked Moon who urgently needed this Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill, so they made this decision. After all, they were also worried that they would not be able to obtain a Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill any time soon.
There might be a simpler reason as well. They could still sell it in an auction with the same high price as the Illusory Spirit Treasure Flag, but if they were to hold a treasure that was equivalent to twenty-five high tier spirit stones, they might not have the chance to exchange for the Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill again.
After announcing her decision, Lin Nianshan continued, “If any of the esteemed guests present can bring out an item that is equivalent to or exceeds the value of the Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill, please continue to bid!”
For a moment, the auction hall that was in full swing a moment ago suddenly quieted down.
Jiang Beiran knew that no one else was bidding because none of the other Sect Masters could come up with an item that was equivalent to a tier 8 spirit pill. Otherwise, Fengzhou would be too weak. All the Sect Masters were gathered here, and only one of them could come up with a treasure like a tier 8 tier spirit pill.
These Sect Masters were probably considering pros and cons of bidding the item. Although a magical item was good, it was not suitable for everyone. The Sect Master who bid with the Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill was most likely someone who specialized in mystic sense cultivation techniques. That was why he was so determined to obtain it.
In the end, when Lin Nianshan shouted out “The third time for the Mystic Heart Bone Refining Pill.” There wasn’t another sound of competition.
“As expected. Even for a Sect Master, a treasure at the level of a tier eight spirit pill is an extremely precious item.’
Jiang Beiran glad that he could watch a “big show”. He also had a more detailed understanding of the needs of an expert at the level of the mystic king.
After the finale of the show, all that was left were a few words of tribute. After the end of the show, Jiang Beiran had just walked out of the auction house when three options popped up in front of him.
[ Option 1: Continue to stay where you are. Reward for completion: Six Moral Sheet (low tier of the black grade)]
[ Option 2: Continue to stroll around the mystic workshop for a while. Reward for completion: White Feather Venomous Book (high tier of the yellow grade)] [ Option 3: Return to the guest house quickly. Reward for completion: Random basic skill points + 1]
“Looks like my luck has run out… I’m leaving.”
Pulling Wu Qingce who was about to stretch, Jiang Beiran quickly brought him back to the guest house.
After returning to their own rooms, Jiang Beiran pushed open the door and saw Mo Xia rushing towards him excitedly with a basin in her hand.
“Brother Jiang, wash your hands!”
Jiang Beiran could not reject such a kind gesture. After washing his hands in the basin, he looked at Mo Xia’s eyes that were filled with anticipation and said, “I have something to do today, so I won’t play Go with you.”
These words were like a bolt of lightning to Mo Xia. His stood there with the basin in his hand.
Jiang Beiran rubbed Mo Xia’s hair and said, “There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Also, can you give me a favor?” When he heard that his senior brother wanted his help, Mo Xia immediately regained his vitality. He said with an excited expression, “Please instruct me.”
“Can you go out for a walk for a while? Just for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn will do.”
This sentence was like a second bolt of lightning striking Mo Xia’s body, causing him to maintain the same posture and freeze again.
“After you finish your walk, I’ll play one round with you.”
“Yes! I’ll go for a walk right away! I love walking the most!” After saying that, Mo Xia disappeared from the room with a swoosh.
“He’s really a Go addict…”
Jiang Beiran had actually considered taking in Mo Xia as his underling. Firstly, his talent was indeed outstanding. Jiang Beiran had only played Go with Mo Xia for five days, and he could feel that Mo Xia’s skill had obviously increased by a level.
Secondly, Jiang Beiran didn’t intend to go easy on him in this gathering of young heroes. After all, his Order Master knew how good his Go skill was. If he lost on purpose, it would be quite troublesome for him.
Once he won the first place in the young heroes’ Go playing competition, there would be many people who would challenge him in the future. Therefore, it was necessary to cultivate a “shield”.
When the time came, he would leave a sentence, “You will only be qualified to challenge me after you defeat Mo Xia.” It was simply too fragrant.
Thirdly, even if he accepted Mo Xia as his underling, he didn’t need to expose his strength to Mo Xia. He just needed to teach Mo Xia how to play Go. Of course, all of this is the premise of tomorrow’s gathering of young heroes can be held as scheduled.
Drawing a spirit wall array on the door, Jiang Beiran sat cross-legged on the ground and took out three red sandalwood incense sticks from the storage ring and lit them. After bowing three times to the sky, he took out a copper turtle shell from the storage ring. After fumigating the copper shell over the red sandalwood in the order of the five elements, Jiang Beiran shook it up and down three times. “Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang.”
After shaking it, Jiang Beiran chanted softly, “The celestial phenomena incarnate into tens of billions, the magical appearance of the mystical raincoat…”
By the time the prayers are spoken, the divination will be complete.
