Although they had already consumed a lot of enthusiasm in the previous auction, everyone in the hall still subconsciously stretched their necks to look at the antique wooden box in the hands of the Luo family master, which was obviously quite old.
The Luo family master did not keep the secret and directly opened the lid of the box.
Three nearly transparent jade bottles appeared in front of him, each containing a pill.
Slightly different from ordinary pills, these three pills, although also crystal clear and round, gave people a sense of simplicity and seemed a little too ordinary.
"Luo family master, what kind of elixir is this?" A family master asked puzzledly.
"You Taoist friends may have heard that thousands of years ago, an ancestor of our Luo family was lucky enough to be favored by the Divine Palace and was selected as a priest after trials.
These elixirs are the Shinto elixirs given by the Divine Palace back then." The Luo family master took a deep breath and said proudly. His
fingers stroked the pill bottle, and his eyes showed a strong reluctance.
The decision to auction these three Shinto pills was partly because the Luo family needed a large amount of spiritual stones to return to the secular world.
On the other hand, it was because the innocent man was guilty of the crime. With the current strength of the Luo family, it would be harmful to keep the Shinto Pill.
Now that he had Mu Shaobo's 1 billion spirit stones, he no longer had to worry about money. He wanted to keep the Shinto Pill, but then he thought of Gu Qingxi's calmness and vigilance, and finally changed his mind.
"Shinto Pill!" Except for Patriarch Tang and Aotian Sect, few people knew that the Luo family still treasured the Shinto Pill. Looking at the legendary peerless spirit pills in the jade bottle, everyone was shocked.
"Patriarch Luo, what is the starting price of this Shinto Pill?" A family head asked anxiously, his voice trembling unconsciously.
"Fifty million spirit stones each." Patriarch Luo said.
"Fifty-five million." The family head shouted immediately.
"Sixty million."
"Seventy million." Other family heads spoke one after another.
In the world, only the Palace of God can refine the Shinto Pill. Who else would be willing to sell it? This opportunity is rare once in thousands of years, so of course they can't miss it.
"Three hundred million spirit stones, I want them all." Gu Qingxi also made another bid.
The hall, which was bustling just now, suddenly became quiet again.
Seeing Gu Qingxi's determined eyes, everyone hesitated.
Others bid one by one, how could she buy all three at once?
If it were someone else, they would probably doubt whether she had the financial resources, but Gu Qingxi had just proved that she was rich, so they couldn't find any reason to doubt it.
Of course, not all families can't afford three hundred million spirit stones. In fact, three Shendao Pills can't be worth only three hundred million spirit stones.
But this is just the beginning. If Gu Qingxi is really as determined as she appears, who knows what the final transaction price will be, nine hundred million, one billion, two billion, or even higher?
More importantly, they are afraid.
Didn't they see how Mu Shaobo was tricked by Gu Qingxi? What if they annoy her and she plays the same trick as before? What if they accidentally bid a sky-high price of hundreds of billions?
Mu Shaobo has the Aotian Sect to back him up, but they don't.
Well, even if the Aotian Sect backs him up, hundreds of billions of spirit stones may not be enough.
Forget it, with the billions of spirit stones on her, Gu
Qingxi can eat them up, so why take the risk.
With this in mind, everyone backed off.
"Three hundred million spirit stones, no one bids?" Seeing that no one spoke in the audience, the head of the Luo family couldn't help asking.
Although he could give Gu Qingxi hundreds of millions of spirit stones without any regrets, he still felt unwilling and uncomfortable when he saw that the three Shendao Pills that the Luo family had treasured for thousands of years were only sold for three hundred million spirit stones and then there was no news.
You know, the Luo family has spent a lot of effort to keep these three Shendao Pills, and every head of the family has been on tenterhooks. His great-grandfather and grandfather were also upset because of this, and eventually became possessed and died young.
If they knew that he had sold three Shendao Pills at such a low price,
they would not be able to rest in peace in their graves. Of course, the people in the audience saw that the head of the Luo family was unwilling, but there was nothing they could do. With the previous experience of Mu Shaobo, they did not want to follow in his footsteps and be cheated to death by Gu Qingxi.
Everyone remained silent, their eyes wandering and not looking at the head of the Luo family, just pretending that they saw nothing.
"Congratulations, Elder Gu, the deal." Seeing this, the head of the Luo family knew that there was no point in waiting any longer, so he could only say helplessly.
Is it a deal like this? Gu Qingxi was a little amused.
She just called out a price of 300 million, just because she didn't want people to think that she was too arrogant and frivolous.
In her opinion, the three Shendao Pills were worth at least 600 to 700 million spirit stones, and it would not be surprising even if they were sold at a price of more than 10 or 20 billion. Worried that she
didn't have enough spirit stones, she was even ready to sell the spirit pills.
Who would have thought that after just one offer, the others would give up and there would be no competitors left.
Could it be that they saw that she was young and had a promising future, and out of the great sentiment of caring for the younger generation, they all gave up this great opportunity?
There are indeed many good people in the world! Looking at the gentle faces around her, Gu Qingxi was moved.
Fortunately, everyone didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise most people would secretly spit on her. What a good person, we are obviously afraid of you, worried that you will kill us alive, so we have to give in, okay?
"Master Luo, keep these spirit stones." Gu Qingxi took the wooden box containing the Shendao Pill and handed three storage bags full of spirit stones to Master Luo.
Seeing this scene, the heads of various families were full of envy.
Three hundred million spirit stones and three Shendao Pills, they didn't even dare to dream of such a good thing, Gu Qingxi really got too much advantage.
Let alone them, even Gu Qingxi herself felt a little embarrassed for accidentally picking up such a big bargain.
"Master Luo, since we met each other by fate, I have a gift for you and the Luo family. I hope you won't despise it." Gu Qingxi said.
Gift? Everyone was secretly curious.
Although Gu Qingxi said it in a subtle way, they were all experienced and shrewd. After a little thought, they guessed that she was embarrassed to take such a big advantage for nothing and wanted to give the Luo family some compensation.
But what kind of compensation can make up for the loss of the three Shendao Pills to the Luo family?
At this moment, even the head of the Luo family did not expect how big a surprise Gu Qingxi would give him.
Gu Qingxi did not let them wait any longer and quickly gave the answer.
She flicked her sleeves and an ancient pill furnace appeared in front of her. Then a strange light flashed, and the bright pill fire condensed at her fingertips and drifted towards the pill furnace. Although they had consumed a lot of enthusiasm in the previous auction, everyone in the hall subconsciously stretched their necks to look at the antique wooden box in the hands of the head of the Luo family, which was obviously quite old.
The head of the Luo family did not keep them in suspense and directly opened the lid of the box.
Three nearly transparent jade bottles appeared in front of them, each containing a pill.
Slightly different from ordinary pills, these three pills, although also crystal clear and round, gave people a sense of simplicity and seemed a little too ordinary.
"Head of the Luo family, what kind of elixir is this?" A head of the family asked in confusion.
"You fellow Taoists may have heard that thousands of years ago, an ancestor of our Luo family was lucky enough to be chosen by the Divine Palace and was selected as a priest after trials.
These few elixirs are the Shinto elixirs given by the Divine Palace back then." The head of the Luo family took a deep breath and said proudly.
His fingers stroked the elixir bottle, and his eyes showed a strong reluctance.
The decision to auction these three Shinto elixirs was made on the one hand because the Luo family needed a large amount of spiritual stones to return to the secular world.
On the other hand, it was because the innocent man was guilty of the crime. With the current strength of the Luo family, keeping the Shinto elixirs would do more harm than good.
Now that he had Mu Shaobo's 1 billion spiritual stones, he no longer had to worry about money. He wanted to keep the Shinto elixirs, but then he thought of Gu Qingxi's calmness and vigilance, and finally changed his mind.
"Shinto elixirs!" Except for the head of the Tang family and the Aotian Sect, there were very few people who knew that the Luo family still treasured the Shinto elixirs. Looking at the legendary peerless elixirs in the jade bottle, everyone was shocked.
"Master Luo, what's the starting price for this Shendao Pill?" a family head asked anxiously, his voice trembling unconsciously.
"50 million spirit stones per pill." said Master Luo.
"55 million." The family head shouted immediately.
"60 million."
"70 million." The other family heads spoke one after another.
In the whole world, only the Divine Palace can refine Shendao Pills. Who else would be willing to sell it? This kind of opportunity is rare in thousands of years, so they certainly can't miss it.
"300 million spirit stones, I want them all." Gu Qingxi also made a move again.
The hall, which was just bustling, suddenly became quiet again.
Seeing Gu Qingxi's determined eyes, everyone hesitated.
Others bid one by one, how could she buy all three at once?
If it were someone else, they would probably doubt whether she had the financial resources, but Gu Qingxi had just proved that she was rich and powerful, so they couldn't find any reason to doubt it.
Of course, not all families can afford 300 million spirit stones. In fact, three Shendao Pills cannot be worth only 300 million spirit stones.
But this is just the beginning. If Gu Qingxi is really as determined as she shows, who knows what the final transaction price will be. 900 million, 1 billion, 2 billion, or even higher?
More importantly, they are afraid.
Didn't they see how Mu Shaobo was tricked by Gu Qingxi? What if they annoyed her and played a trick like she did just now? What if they shouted and shouted and ran away, and accidentally shouted out a sky-high price of tens of billions or hundreds of billions?
Mu Shaobo has the Aotian Sect to back him up, but they don't.
Well, even if the Aotian Sect backs him up, hundreds of billions of spirit stones may not be enough. Forget
it, just with the tens of billions of spirit stones on her, Gu
Qingxi can eat them to death, so why take the risk.
Thinking of this, everyone backed off.
"300 million spirit stones, no one bids?" Seeing that no one spoke up in the audience, the head of the Luo family couldn't help asking.
Although he could give Gu Qingxi hundreds of millions of spirit stones without any regret, he still felt unwilling and uncomfortable when he saw that the three Shendao Pills that the Luo family had treasured for thousands of years were only sold for 300 million spirit stones and nothing happened.
You know, the Luo family spent a lot of effort to keep these three Shendao Pills, and every head of the family was on edge. His great-grandfather and grandfather were also upset because of this, and eventually became possessed and died young.
If they knew that he sold the three Shendao Pills so cheaply, they would not be able to rest in peace in their nine springs.
Of course, the people in the audience saw that the head of the Luo family was unwilling, but there was nothing they could do. With the previous experience of Mu Shaobo, they didn't want to follow in his footsteps and be killed by Gu Qingxi.
Everyone remained silent, their eyes wandering and not looking at the head of the Luo family, just pretending that they didn't see anything.
"Congratulations, Elder Gu, deal." Seeing this, the head of the Luo family knew that there was no point in waiting any longer, so he could only say helplessly.

Who knew that after just one offer, the others gave up one after another, and there was no competitor left.
Could it be that they saw that she was young and had a bright future, and in the spirit of caring for the younger generation, they unanimously gave up this great opportunity? There
are still many good people in the world! Looking at the gentle faces around her, Gu Qingxi was moved.
Fortunately, everyone didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise most of them would secretly spit on her and say, "What a good person! We are obviously afraid of you and worried that we will be killed by you, so we have to give in, okay?"

Not to mention them, even Gu Qingxi herself was a little embarrassed for accidentally picking up such a big bargain.
"Master Luo, since we are destined to meet, I have a gift for you and the Luo family. I hope you won't despise it." Gu Qingxi said.
Gift? Everyone was secretly curious.
Although Gu Qingxi said it implicitly, they were all experienced and shrewd. After a little thought, they guessed that she was embarrassed to take such a big advantage for nothing and wanted to give the Luo family some compensation.
But what kind of compensation would make up for the loss of the three Shendao Pills to the Luo family?
At this moment, even Master Luo did not expect how big a surprise Gu Qingxi would give him.
Gu Qingxi did not let them wait any longer and quickly gave the answer.
She flicked her sleeves and an ancient alchemy furnace appeared in front of her. Then a strange light flashed, and the bright alchemy fire condensed at her fingertips and floated towards the alchemy furnace.
