Forsaken Immortals Chapter 147 - Auction Begins

Chapter 147 - Auction Begins

The female servant was not the only one who looked at Li Moyun and Bai Rouyun with hatred in her eyes. In the back, a figure had appeared silently, and no one dared to approach him.

He was a renowned figure in Canglan City, and especially in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion branch. This was the alchemist who was in charge of appraising medicine from the auction house.

When the people saw him, they were all eager to get close to hear some news about the pills, but at the same time, they did not wish to interrupt him in case he was doing something important.

So, in the end, everyone stayed at a distance, and cast envious gazes towards him.

People were streaming into the area where the seats had been sat up. There were enough seats to house ten thousand audiences, and everyone was hurrying to find their seats so that the auction could begin.

They had been placed based on their background. The experts that came from the cultivation world were placed at the front of the area, close to the stage, while the upper cla.s.s of the mortal world was further back.

It was clear to see that everyone revered strength, and that the people who were respected were all cultivators.

When people noticed Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun, many of them were of the impression that they could sit at the very top because of Li Moyun.

He was wearing his mask, and many of the people who came from the cultivation world were aware of his ident.i.ty. The silver mask was a sign of power. Only one expert would wear this mask, especially since the expert wearing it was at the Innate Realm, Violet tier.

The alchemist had also noticed the man who was seated next to Bai Rouyun. While he was not capable of sensing the cultivation base that Li Moyun had, he could feel an oppressive air being emitted from him, and his expression had turned ugly.

He had already planned on moving on Bai Rouyun today, as he was not going just to let go of the ancient formula, but now the person had brought someone for protection. This was somewhat troublesome.

Everyone had their own thoughts as the last of the seats were filled. As the crowd grew, one could expect that the noise would also become overwhelming, but most people stayed silent in excitement as they waited for the auction to begin, while others were whispering to one another in low voices.

By the time the manager of the Thousand Treasure Pavilion walked onto the stage, everyone had turned quiet, and s.h.i.+fted their attention to him.

He was somewhat nervous, his palms were sweaty, and his heart was pounding. He understood the seriousness of this matter.

The auction did not add a lot of unnecessary items. They knew that everyone had come for the Marrow-Cleansing Pill, and if they added other things, these would likely become a significant failure, as no one would dare to spend money on anything else than the Marrow-Cleansing Pill.

"Dear guests, welcome to our special auction. This is not like any other auction we have ever held before. We only have one item up for sale, and that is a legendary treasure.

"Long time ago, back in the ancient era, pills without impurities existed. During the s.h.i.+fting of times, the formulas have been lost, and only remnants remain, which has led us to the current situation we find ourselves in today.

"A pill with eighty percent purity is already an amazing pill. Only certain alchemists will reach this level in their lives. Still, while eighty percent sounds rather outstanding, we have to remember that when consuming such a pill, twenty percent of what we consume will be impurities.

"These impurities will stay in one's body and might cause unnecessary disasters later on in one's path of cultivation.

"However, today, we have the honor of presenting a Marrow-Cleansing Pill, which has been refined after an ancient formula. It has one hundred percent purity, and consuming it will not cause any impurities to remain."

While the manager was promoting the pill as such, every faction which had shown up had no interest in giving the pill to any of their disciples. It was going to be examined by their alchemists in an attempt at trying to improve their own formulas.

Even if they could not reach a formula that had a hundred percent purity, they would still be able to get to around eighty-five or ninety; then they would have benefited greatly.

Especially since this was a Marrow-Cleansing Pill.

This was a very crucial pill when it came to cultivation. The purer such a pill was, the better the talent and potential of the cultivator in the future.

This was also why Li Moyun had not wanted to sell the pills. While he could earn grat.i.tude and wealth, he was much more interested in having a force that could not be threatened.

By providing the one hundred percent purity pills for the members of the Eternal Shadow Palace, he would be able to increase their strength much faster than any other faction, and his forces would also go further than the others.

Most factions had one or two Innate Realm, Violet Tiered experts, and only a handful of Innate Realm, Indigo Tiered experts.

The future of the Eternal Shadow Palace was unmeasurable. They would have numerous Innate Realm, Indigo Tiered experts, and handfuls of Violet Tiered.

Mainly due to the fact that Bai Rouyun had not given them just the Marrow-Cleansing Pills.

Every pill formula she had provided them with was able to make one hundred percent purity pills. While you could not build your cultivation base on pills, it was possible to consume a sizable amount of them before your cultivation base would become unstable.
