Su Xiaobai initially thought an auction price of 45 million would be reasonable.
This was his expected price.
If it ended up higher, great; if slightly lower, it wouldn't matter much.
However, he never imagined the final auction price would nearly double that!
After the initial shock, Su Xiaobai was utterly delighted.
With over 60 million in hand, he could now go on another spree of uninhibited upgrades!
"All right, I got it."
Despite his excitent, Su Xiaobai kept his composure, maintaining a calm deanor as if the 60 million was trivial to him.
Stashing away the bank card, Su Xiaobai casually pulled out a small wooden box from his chest pocket and placed it on the table.
"Please auction these for too," he said nonchalantly.
Rose carefully opened the wooden box to reveal 12 pills that glead like golden pearls and glass… Yes, they were fourth-grade Golden Crow ridian-Protection Pills. Judging by their luster and potent spiritual energy, they were of perfect quality!
In the past three days, Su Xiaobai hadn't been idle.
He sold another batch of ferocious beast materials, earning 16 million.
To speed up mastering theQiankun Technique, he spent 12.8 million to upgrade his one-click cultivation space to level 7, reducing the required ti to less than ten days!
As for the remaining funds, instead of upgrading his skills, he poured everything into the ingredients for Golden Crow ridian-Protection Pills, keeping so beast materials in reserve.
The 12 pills before him were the result of spending 3 million on materials—every batch yielded four pills!
If they were auctioned at today's rate of 22 million per pill, the 12 pills would bring in a total of 264 million!
From 3 million to 264 million, an 800% profit—how could Su Xiaobai not be thrilled?
"This…"
Rose's lips parted slightly in surprise, her eyes full of astonishnt.
If she had any doubts before about whether this "Mr. Bai" was a fifth-grade alchemist, the 12 perfect Golden Crow ridian-Protection Pills confird it.
Who else but a fifth-grade alchemist could produce so many perfect fourth-grade pills in such a short ti?
Even if he wasn't the one who made them, it at least proved he was closely connected to such a master!
"Of course, Mr. Bai!"
Rose smiled respectfully and said, "I'll make arrangents imdiately to ensure these pills fetch the best price possible!"
"Mm."
Su Xiaobai nodded impassively.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Rose seized the opportunity to ask Su Xiaobai several questions, especially regarding the source of the pills.
Su Xiaobai understood her intentions and gave only brief responses.
"…Mr. Bai, the buyer of your three Golden Crow ridian-Protection Pills from this auction is the Yuan family, a well-known household in Base No. 18. The head of the Yuan family personally requested to et you. Would you be willing to see them?"
The Yuan family?
"Heh."
Hearing those two words, Su Xiaobai's gaze turned cold, and a faint sneer escaped his lips, laden with mockery.
What a coincidence!
To think the pills he refined would end up in the hands of the Yuan family!
But he had to thank them.
Not only did they provide him with over 60 million in funds, but they were also digging their own grave.
"You know the Yuan family?" Rose asked, surprised by his reaction.
"No," Su Xiaobai replied calmly.
"Oh, then… does that an…"
"No need to et them."
Now wasn't the ti for a eting.
The day Su Xiaobai decided to et the Yuan family would be the day they vanished from this world.
"Understood, Mr. Bai. Please take care!"
Not long after, with a gilded receipt in hand, Su Xiaobai left the Treasure Pill Pavilion as Rose watched him go.
"If only we could recruit him into the Treasure Pill Pavilion… What a pity!" Rose sighed.
During their conversation, she had been tempted to poach him. Although a master alchemist like him was bound to have a strong backing, the Treasure Pill Pavilion was no pushover either.
Still, she refrained from offending him and decided to bide her ti.
"Perhaps after a few more collaborations, I can discreetly investigate which faction Mr. Bai is connected to," Rose mused.
…
"Finally, I have money again!"
Back ho, Su Xiaobai removed his black cloak, his eyes brimming with excitent.
"System, upgrade the one-click practice space!"
Without hesitation, Su Xiaobai chose to upgrade.
Two days ago, he had upgraded the practice space to level 7 at the cost of 12.8 million.
To reach level 8 now required double that—25.6 million!
"Upgrade complete!"
After deducting 25.6 million, the ti acceleration indicator in the automatic cultivation space changed from "x128" to "x256"!
A ti flow of 256 tis faster—its potential is unimaginable!
"Four days… Just four more days, and I'll master theQiankun Technique!"
Su Xiaobai's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
Once theQiankun Techniqueis perfected, my strength would transform entirely.
At that point, he wouldn't need to fear being discovered by the Yuan family anymore—because he'd have the power to face them head-on!
"System, also upgrade one-click cultivation and auto-hunting systems by one level each!"
With money in hand, upgrades were a must!
After all, this wealth had been "gifted" by the Yuan family for their own demise. Su Xiaobai would gladly oblige!
"Upgrade complete!"
After spending 3.2 million, the one-click cultivation system's ti acceleration jumped from x64 to x128.
After spending 10.8 million, auto-hunting unlocked a fourth shadow, which was sent to a new hunting zone.
"I still have 26.9 million left!"
"The One-Click Alchemy feature is sufficient for now. One-click practice space and auto-hunting still fall short. I'll focus everything on upgrading the one-click cultivation space!"
"System, upgrade one-click cultivation space again!"
After spending 6.4 million, one-click cultivation space reached level 7, achieving x256 ti acceleration.
After spending 12.8 million, one-click cultivation space reached level 8, achieving an astonishing x512 ti acceleration.
