Chapter 149: Auction of Blood Lingcao
The inner elixir of the Blazing Leopard was finally bought by the mysterious figure wearing a black apron for 2,000 gold coins. Several bidding priests from the Holy Temple also gave up in the end.
Although the inner elixir of the fierce flame leopard is extraordinary, its market price is only around 700,000 gold coins. Buying it at a price higher than 700,000 gold coins would not be worth it.
At this time, Xia Yan's eyes were getting brighter and brighter.
Because the second-to-last item to be auctioned off has already been brought up by the staff.
On a white jade plate as smooth as sheep's fat, lay a bright red medicinal herb. This was the Blood Ling Grass that Xia Yan had been waiting for so long. Because he hadn't found the Blood Ling Grass, Xia Yan's preparation of the medicine had already been delayed by more than a week.
"No matter what price is paid, this Blood Lingcao must be bought!" Xia Yan's eyes flashed with a fierce glint.
Blood was slowly boiling inside Xia Yan's body.
"The Blood Ling Grass is more valuable than the Qing Yang Flower. The Yu Shui City Auction House has not seen a Blood Ling Grass in two years. It's said that the Blood Ling Grass usually grows on the Blood-colored Peak of the Sin Forest, a volcano that frequently erupts with lava. Within hundreds of miles around it, there are hardly any ordinary beasts, but many spiritual beasts inhabit the area. And this Blood Ling Grass grows right on the mountain ridge." Yafenmei's beautiful eyes looked at Xia Yan as she spoke in a gentle voice.
Xia Yan smiled and said, "This Blood Lingcao. I must get it! Hehe, even if I have to spend all my money, I'll buy it!"
A strange light flashed in his eyes, and Xia Yan did not hide his eagerness to get the Blood Lingcao.
。
Yafen's eyes changed, and she exclaimed in surprise: "Ling Luo, you want this Blood Lingcao. Are you planning to refine a Dan medicine? However, this Blood Lingcao is usually only used when refining third-grade or higher Dan medicines."
Xia Yan has already entered the prenatal stage and reached the realm of a spiritual master, but to refine elixirs above third-grade, one must be at least an intermediate alchemist in the great spiritual master boundary. And Xia Yan is still far from reaching the great spiritual master boundary.
"Mr. Ling Luo!" Yafen hesitated for a moment, then looked at him expectantly and asked: "Are you an alchemist?"
Xia Yan looked at Ya Fen, shaking his head and smiling: "Don't be deceived, Miss Ya Fen. Although I have now entered the realm of a spiritual master, the internal energy in my body has not yet transformed into spiritual energy. I am not even a true spiritual master, let alone a Dan-making master."
Yafen heard this sentence and nodded slightly!
She also knew Xia Yan's strength, Xia Yan had been walking from the Extreme Challenge Arena, and his strength had been increasing step by step. Not long ago, he finally entered the Xiantian realm.
If it weren't for the battle with Xigang, Xia Yan suddenly burst out his hidden potential and used his spiritual power to perform unpredictable martial arts, Yafen and others also didn't know that Xia Yan had already entered the Pre-Heaven.
Those who have entered the Xiantian realm, wanting to convert their internal energy into spiritual energy, even those with extremely high innate talent, will need half a year to a year's time. Those with slightly lower innate talent may require an even longer period of time.
Even if Xia Yan's talent was exceptional, it would be impossible for him to completely convert his internal energy into spiritual energy within a short span of just one week.
Just stepped into the Xiantian realm cultivator. Strictly speaking, it's not even a spiritual master. Although there is a Linggong Cave, it's difficult to use spiritual power. Only after the internal force is fully transformed can it be called an initial spiritual master.
Nowadays Xia Yan is not even considered a beginner spiritual master. Of course, once he enters the Pre-Heavenly stage, as long as there are no accidents, becoming a spiritual master is only a matter of time.
But wanting to become an alchemist also requires at least becoming a beginner spiritual master first.
"Why are you buying such expensive medicine?" Yafen couldn't help but ask.
Even low-grade elixirs cannot be refined, how can mid-grade and high-grade elixirs be refined?
"I bought this Blood Lingcao to prepare medicine, not to refine Dan." Xia Yan replied.
"Medicine?" Yafen's small mouth opened in surprise, her face filled with astonishment. "Using Blood Lingcao to make medicine, Ling Luo."
Because she was too shocked, Yafen unconsciously raised her voice a little.
The people around also heard Yafen's voice and immediately turned their eyes over.
"Mr. Ling Luo, are you planning to take a photo of this Blood Lingcao for medicinal purposes?" The president of the Mercenary Hall, Hong Fei, asked with sparkling eyes as he looked at Xia Yan.
Seeing that everyone had already heard Yafen's voice, Xia Yan also smiled wryly and nodded directly: "Yes, I will be preparing the medicine. Still missing this one Blood Lingcao."
This time Xia Yan said it with his own mouth, and everyone couldn't help but be shocked for a moment.
Is Bloodletting Grass used in drug preparation?
This was the first time many people had heard of it. Generally, even high-end medicines were rare if they used materials worth over a hundred gold coins. But Xia Yan wanted to use Blood Lingcao to make medicine.
Agent.
Judging from Xia Yan's tone, it seems that the medicinal concoction he is about to prepare requires more than just Xue Ling Cao, a high-grade medicinal herb!
So what kind of medicine is he going to prepare?
Hong Fei's face, already full of wrinkles, smiled and said: "Originally I also wanted to buy this Blood Lingcao. However, since Mr. Ling Luo urgently needs this Blood Lingcao, then I won't bid for it."
Xia Yan hastily bowed and said: "Thank you, sir!"
"The item to be auctioned next is the high-grade medicinal material, Blood Lingcao. The Blood Lingcao grows in the depths of the Xianyun Forest on the Blood Spirit Mountain, and it's extremely rare. As for its uses, I think there's no need for me to elaborate." Mo Jiachen, standing at the front desk, said with a smile, his eyes scanning the entire room.
"So, ladies and gentlemen interested in this Blood Ling Grass can start bidding now. The starting price of the Blood Ling Grass is 30,000 gold coins! Each bid increase must not be less than 500 gold coins!" Mo Jiafeng's voice rose and fell, his hands also rising involuntarily.
The blood-ling grass was placed in front of him, a bright red color like crimson fresh blood, very eye-catching.
The minimum price is 30,000 gold coins, far exceeding the high-grade medicinal material Qingyang Flower!
Although they are all high-grade medicinal materials, the price difference is huge!
"Yafen, what will be the final transaction price of Xuelingcao?" Xia Yan turned his gaze towards Yafen, his eyebrows slightly raised.
He didn't want to add another 500 gold coins on top of the 500. The Blood Lingcao was a must-have anyway. So, he directly raised the price to a certain extent. No need to waste time.
Yafen hesitated for a moment before saying, "The Blood Lingcao is a rare medicinal herb, even in auction houses. As for its selling price, I can't say for sure, but it definitely won't be less than 700,000 gold coins!"
"Thirty-one!"
"Thirty-two thousand!"
"Thirty-five thousand!"
Obviously, people who want to buy Xue Ling Cao are much more than those who want to buy Qing Yang Hua. This Xue Ling Cao is a hard-to-find thing and it's different from ordinary medicinal materials.
Qingyang flower can often be seen in auction houses, but Xuelincao is different.
Even if you don't use it yourself, or won't be using it for now, you can still buy it back and treasure it. People tend to value things that are scarce, everyone has this psychology, wanting to possess something that is hard to come by.
"Seven hundred thousand gold coins!"
A voice directly interrupted some people who were bidding!
From over 30,000, it rose to over 70,000 in a short period of time.
There aren't many people who can name such a price.
As expected, everyone's gaze turned to the person who raised his hand and called out 700,000 gold coins. It was Xia Yan sitting in the first row.
"This spiritual net is really"
Some people shook their heads and sighed softly. Although they felt unfair in their hearts, they didn't plan to continue bidding either.
"Hehe, forget it. It seems he's determined to get it. If we continue to raise the price, we might offend him!" said a family head with a smile, also giving up on bidding.
"Seven fifty-five!"
The bidding voice in the field fell silent for a while, and suddenly another voice rang out.
Xia Yan furrowed her brow and looked over, because this voice was coming from her left side, which was also the position of the first row.
It was Xishan's family head, Xi Potian. After Xi Potian called out this price, he looked at Xia Yan, and the light in his eyes flashed for a moment.
It seems he also wants to get Blood Lingcao very much.
"80,000!"
Xia Yan paused for just a moment before continuing to call out prices.
Whether it's 70,000 gold coins or 80,000 gold coins, to Xia Yan they are just numbers. In any case, this Blood Lingcao must be obtained.
Xie Po Tian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he raised his hand again, shouting: "Eight hundred and fifty thousand!"
"850,000! 850,000 gold coins, is there an even higher price?" Mo Jia Feng excitedly shouted.
For him, selling the items at auction for the highest price is success. So, when the prices of the items being auctioned off go up, he's naturally delighted.
"Nine thousand!" Xia Yan said calmly, raising his hand again.
Would Xia Yan be reluctant to spend a few tens of thousands of gold coins on the Blood Lingcao, which was extremely important to him, when he could demolish the聚仙楼 worth 100,000 gold coins for Xiao Qing?
The chair creaked loudly, and his eyebrows furrowed even tighter.
"It seems that this Ling Luo really wants to buy the Blood Ling Grass! Damn it, this Ling Luo made my Shi family lose tens of thousands of gold coins in the Extreme Challenge Hall. This time, I won't let him get what he wants easily! Although I also want to buy this Blood Ling Grass, the price of 90,000 gold coins has reached my bottom line. Heh heh, but let's make this Ling Luo spend a bit more gold coins."
Thinking of this, Xi Po Tian smiled gloomily and raised his hand again in front of everyone.
"One hundred thousand!" This time, he directly added ten thousand gold coins, raising the price to one hundred thousand.
One hundred thousand gold coins is already a threshold.
Generally auctioned items that can exceed 100,000 are rare and precious. For example, some high-quality elixirs or things with special functions.
A single high-grade medicinal herb was auctioned off for 100,000 gold coins. This is already shocking enough. Even if it were an item being auctioned off by the Purple Leaf City Auction House, there wouldn't be many that could surpass 100,000 gold coins.
"Ling Luo!" Yafen stretched out her small white jade-like hand and pulled at Xia Yan's sleeve, reminding him not to be impulsive. Although the Blood Ling Grass was precious, it wasn't a special medicinal herb after all.
She didn't know that Xia Yan wasn't being arrogant, but he had to get the Blood Ling Grass! Although it was only one plant of Blood Ling Grass, for Xia Yan it was extremely important, related to whether his strength could quickly rise to the early stage of a Spirit Master.
