Chapter 141 Trap
"This is the Immaculate Pill. After taking it, it can greatly improve your cultivation. The starting price is one million spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 20,000 spirit stones."
After that, no one participated in the bidding for a while.
This is because the information provided is very limited and does not conform to normal auction rules.
Soon a monk asked:
"We have never heard of the Immaculate Pill before. Who made it? Also, how much can this greatly improve your cultivation? And what grade is this pill?"
Lin Yu, who was hosting the auction, had expected this and remained calm as he responded with a smile:
"The person who provided this pill requested that the relevant information be kept confidential, so I cannot tell you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire auction venue was suddenly in an uproar.
Someone immediately criticized him.
"How can this be justified? Xue Ming Pavilion has never hosted an auction before. This is totally against the rules!"
"That's right! The first requirement for participating in an auction is transparent information. Now you only tell us the name of a pill that we have never heard of and say something ambiguous, and then you ask us to bid high prices. Are you taking us for fools?"
"Master Lin, please reveal the complete information, otherwise the reputation that Xue Ming Pavilion has accumulated over the years will be damaged!"
For a while, there was a continuous stream of monks who echoed the sentiment.
Su Qingwu stayed quietly in the private room and was not surprised by the current situation.
For an item with a starting price of one million spirit stones and such simple information, it is normal to have such a result.
As for the Immaculate Pill...
She had an indescribable feeling that she didn't know how to describe.
She also smelled the fragrance of the medicine.
Perhaps it was because her cultivation level was relatively high, or perhaps it was because she had just made a breakthrough not long ago, so it did not have any positive effect on her.
On the contrary, the moment she smelled the fragrance of the medicine, she felt a faint sense of rejection in her heart.
The specific reason for rejection cannot be expressed in words.
With this feeling in mind, even if the monk presiding over the auction revealed the specific origin of the elixir, she would not participate in the bidding.
Although Su Qingwu was in a private room, she could see everything in the outside world with her spiritual awareness.
At this moment, inside the huge Xueming Pavilion, the cultivators participating in the auction had different expressions.
There were those who remained silent and watched indifferently; there were those who made accusations with angry expressions; and there were those who crossed their arms, watched the excitement and joined in the conversation from time to time.
The various arguments are getting louder and louder.
However, the core of the discussion revolved around getting Lin Yu to reveal the details and effects of the elixir, and no one suspected that there was anything wrong with the elixir itself.
Judging from this situation, the previous smell of medicine played a significant role.
These people, subconsciously, regarded the Immaculate Pill as a precious medicine.
Su Qingwu speculated that the main reason they wanted to find out the origin of this pill was that they wanted to obtain this kind of pill again in the future.
After all, there is only one in the jade bottle.
In the end, there is only one person who can get the Immaculate Pill.
If you don't know where the elixir comes from, you may never have the chance to encounter it again in the future.
Her speculation was exactly what the practitioners present were thinking.
After a while, Lin Yu made a gesture to keep quiet.
Looking at the cultivators who gradually calmed down, he said in a deep voice:
"The senior who provided the Immaculate Pill clearly stated that this pill is for those who are destined to win. If you have any doubts, you can give up the bid. No one in your court will force you to participate."
The words are full of firmness, which shows his attitude.
Regardless of whether it would affect the reputation of Xue Ming Ge auction, he would not disclose more information.
Su Qingwu sat in the private room, thinking that although he could not tell the name of the elixir, Xuanqing was well-informed and might know something about it, so he immediately sent a telepathic message to ask:
"Can you tell what the ingredients are in this Immaculate Pill? Is there any problem?"
A response quickly came from the sea of consciousness.
"There is indeed a problem. The elixir contains a large amount of human blood, but the bloody smell is masked by a treasure called Earth Mysterious Jade Essence."
"So, this is a magic pill?"
"Judging from its characteristics, it cannot be considered a magic pill."
"What do you mean?"
"From Xuan Qing's perception, this pill does not have the evil spirit that a magic pill should have. It just has an extra layer of very hidden restrictions."
"What restrictions?"
"It is still unclear whether it can rob people of their luck, but there is no doubt that once this pill is taken by someone, the corresponding restrictions will also take root in the person who takes it, and the person will most likely not be able to detect it."
Su Qingwu was greatly surprised when he heard this.
"Snatching luck? Is there such a restriction in this world? It also affects elixirs. After being taken by people, it can be directly transferred. These methods don't seem to be able to be used by the cultivators of the Moonlight Realm at all."
"Indeed, but the Yuehua Realm and the Yuanji World are connected. It is not impossible that there are secret methods from the upper realm."
"This Xue Ming Pavilion also has sinister intentions."
"The monk who presided over the auction is most likely aware of the inside story. This elixir is most likely made by a monk from this pavilion, rather than commissioned by a monk from outside."
At this moment, some monks in the field have started bidding.
Although Su Qingwu learned the truth, she did not say anything more.
This kind of thing is often thankless.
With the smell of medicine around, the monks participating in the auction would basically not believe her words, and Xueming Pavilion would most likely take this opportunity to bite back and direct the anger of everyone present towards her.
As for the fate of people who have nothing to do with her, Su Qingwu chooses to respect it and not interfere.
......
The Immaculate Pill was finally sold for 2.5 million spirit stones and was won by a cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm.
Compared with that of the mermaid, the transaction price was much lower.
However, Lin Yu, who presided over the auction, was all smiles, and was obviously very satisfied with the result.
After the auction, Su Qingwu quickly left the place and returned to the market near Danchen Palace.
In another six days, it will be Ling Yueyao's Dan Formation Ceremony.
Currently, many forces have arrived at Danchen Palace with invitations.
The market town was under strict alert, and the number of guards at the entrance was doubled compared to before.
As Su Qingwu was a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, naturally many people noticed her existence.
Because I looked unfamiliar, few people recognized me. At first I stayed in the inn and no one came to disturb me.
But as time went by, several Jindan masters came to visit Danchen Palace one after another.
She did not hide her origins and stated her identity directly.
Although the Qianzhi Sect is located in Dongxuan Continent, the name of the sect is not unfamiliar to the cultivators in Beihan Continent.
There is no hatred between the two continents, so Danchen Palace naturally welcomes guests from afar with great enthusiasm.
That night, at the invitation of these fellow travelers, Su Qingwu stayed in the best guest house in the palace.
After entering Danchen Palace, she also saw Ling Yueyao, the person recommended by the incarnation of Heaven.
She was wearing a pure purple dress, had eyebrows as dark as distant black, and had her hair combed into a fairy bun. She was very conspicuous in the crowd.
However, contrary to Su Qingwu's expectation, the early Jindan cultivator who won the Immaculate Pill at the Xueming Pavilion auction was right next to this woman.
Not only that, the other party also gave me the elixir as a gift...
