"These types of pills are only available in the Central Region, and only the Sky Pavilion brings them to the Eastern Region.
But there is one thing: they only bring out these pills when they aren’t needed in the Central Region. But is that possible?
Almost half of the human population lives in the Central Region, and because of this, there is always a demand for pills. There can never be too many perfect-tier Grade 6 pills in the entire world.
This is the reason why the Alchemy Hall takes away all the talents to the Central Region to et the demands.
Because of this, the Central Region kept getting stronger while other regions beco weaker day by day.
Now everyone wants to go to the Central Region, but do you think it is easy? No, it isn’t.
Unless you are a genius and talented and agree to join one of the top sects in the Central Region, you will be forced to serve at the borders to maintain the peace of the cities.
And many people die because of this. After all, the teleportation arrays were all controlled by the great sects.
And traveling without teleportation... heh, it’s but a foolish dream.
The human establishnt is very close to the center of the Central Region; it is more towards the north, but it is still considered in the center.
Outside that establishnt is only wilderness, which contains many forbidden lands and places that might not be known even to cultivators of the Central Region.
When an area is infested with spirit beasts of Grade 7 or above, it will beco a forbidden zone. Who knows how many of those areas have been ford in the Central Region?
Not to ntion, in the Central Region, humans occupy an almost negligible amount of area, just like us in other regions.
So, in the end, getting resources like those pills is but a dream for many in regions like ours. And when they appear, the amount of spirit stones is the last thing people see while buying them."
Jiang Hao nodded in understanding. It seed that other regions were treated like re vassal lands, existing only to supply talents and materials to the Central Region without ever reaping the benefits themselves.
This was but the truth of the world: those who are strong will always rule over the weak. Righteousness is just a facade to hide one’s ugliness.
He wondered if those seniors who had ascended knew this or not. They fought for the well-being of the entire human race.
After ascending, they could have simply forgotten about this world, but no, they still created a connection from the upper worlds for the welfare of humans.
Or perhaps they belonged to these sects and did so to ensure their sects survived and continued their legacy. The survival of humans might not matter much to them.
Well, whatever. He didn’t care much for it. He didn’t know their intentions, but they would definitely not be happy if soone destroyed these two top sects.
If others didn’t find any solution, then the result of the destruction of these two sects would be the end of humans in this world.
The solution wasn’t hard, though: letting other powers take over the legacy of these sects. Well, they would see when the ti ca; it was still too early to assu anything.
"60,000!"
"63,000!"
"65,000!"
"75,000!"
The price was truly reaching an astonishing level. This bid was made by the Alchemy Hall; they had really raised it to the next level.
It seed they finally decided to buy the pill to examine how well it was crafted.
And it looked like it would be the final bid.
The Blazing Valley elder gritted his teeth in annoyance. He knew he wouldn’t be able to win this bid. Although this was only a branch of the Alchemy Hall, they might be just as wealthy as the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion.
"Congratulations to our esteed guest in room number 6. Please complete the transaction."
"Is it over, Lady i? Because we still have many spirit stones left. Please don’t disappoint us by saying this was the last item. We truly brought many spirit stones, listening to your advice," ca a voice from room number 10.
"Oh my... hehe, of course, it isn’t the last item. There are many more to co; please have patience."
A new tray appeared on the stage, and when she removed the cloth, there were three pills on the tray.
One was water-attributed, one was tal-attributed, and the last was earth-attributed.
The others were stunned again. Wasn’t this thod of auctioning similar to how she had auctioned those Grade 5 pills?
How could that be possible? Was creating perfect-tier Grade 6 pills really that easy?
Even the person sitting in room number 6 was stunned. He had examined the pill and discovered sothing astonishing.
He hadn’t bought any Grade 5 pills earlier, as he wasn’t really interested in them, but he was truly intrigued by a Grade 6 pill. Crafting one was far more difficult, even for Grandmasters.
The skills needed to elevate a pill to perfect-tier were far more demanding than those required for a Grade 5 pill.
This person must have a very deep understanding of pill crafting and shouldn’t be soone unknown. That’s why he wanted to check if he could discern the identity of this person by examining the pill. He had seen many pills and was quite skilled at identifying them.
When he looked at it, he ca to a single conclusion: there wasn’t a hint of using the Dao to elevate this pill’s quality. It was as if it was crafted at perfect-tier by simply refining the pill.
His hands trembled. It was impossible to even think about sothing like that. He even thought the pill might be an illusion, but no matter how many tis he verified it, it was a real pill.
There was only one possibility for how this pill could be created at perfect-tier: it was made using 100 percent pure refined spirit herbs and this was why he thought it was impossible.
Had the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion acquired so treasure that could refine spirit herbs to 100 percent purity? He had to figure it out quickly. Now he was even more eager to visit the Sky Pavilion.
If it was truly a treasure, he had to inform the main branch about it. It was sothing the Alchemy Hall should possess no matter what. They would try to acquire it peacefully, but if the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion didn’t agree, they would have to show them what it ant to defy the most respected establishnt in the world.
Although he was eager to leave right then, he waited to see how many pills would be sold. In fact, he was even eager to buy all of them, but the only problem was that he hadn’t brought many spirit stones with him, as he was only there to scout talents.
He bought this one at a high price because 75,000 wasn’t much, but buying these three bottles would put him in a tight spot.
"Let the bidding start, and of course, just like the previous ti, the price of bidding will be influenced by how sought-after they are. If you are dissatisfied, please feel free to refrain from bidding. So, the starting price is 225,000 for these three pills. Please begin."
The others gritted their teeth when they heard this, but they were still going to bid no matter what.
Jiang Hao was also surprised. This was outright fleecing others with a smile, and the amusing part was that others were still going to fall for it.
He couldn’t help but look toward i Ling.
"Why are you looking at ? It wasn’t I who set this up. Anyway, didn’t they say they brought many spirit stones? They shouldn’t boast like this if they are lacking," she said.
Jiang Hao didn’t say anything. Well, he was benefiting anyway.
"230,000!"
"232,000!"
"233,000!"
The incrents were smaller than before, but every single increase was pushing the value of these pills higher than the first one, which was sold for 75,000 spirit stones.
This ti, the bid was won by the guest in room number 4. He seed quite eager to obtain it; perhaps his spiritual root matched one of the pills. The Thousand Petal Order also seed interested but backed away when the price climbed high enough.
The Blazing Valley didn’t bid. It seed they were hoping for more pills to co. Although the chances were low, there might be another batch with a fire-attributed pill.
"246,000, thrice! Sold to our dear guest in private room number 4."
With this round, there were still 35 pills left to be auctioned off, but he had already earned the amount he had estimated earlier.
i Lan didn’t wait, and a new batch of pills appeared—this ti, five of them.
Among them were two fire-attributed pills.
The eyes of the elder sitting in room number 8 widened. He was determined to win this one no matter what.
The Alchemy Hall hadn’t bid in the last round, which ant they weren’t interested now, so this was his chance to acquire not one but two fire-attributed pills.
"Let’s adjust this one," i Ling said with a smile.
"Are you certain, Senior?"
"Of course. Even if we raise it a little, the Blazing Valley will still definitely buy it."
Jiang Hao nodded. He was content as long as he earned more.
