Everyone's faces also revealed a fascinated look. They were all very curious, to be able to have that kind of terrifying alchemy art, to what grade did Ye Yuan refine it.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Open then. Head Elder, who first?"
Head Elder said in a deep voice, "You first. This old man is very curious now, what grade of Vastsun Universe Pill can a Three-star Alchemy God actually refine!"
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "As you wish!"
The moment the medicinal cauldron opened, a dazzling light shot out and reached straight for the firmament, blinding until everyone could not open their eyes.
In the sky, the winds and clouds suddenly changed, and actually formed a rainbow auspicious cloud!
The rainbow auspicious cloud danced in the sky, looking unbelievably magnificent, like celebrating Ye Yuan forming the pill.
In the crowd, cries of exclamations rang out.
"What grade is this medicinal pill? To actually be able to trigger a heaven and earth phenomenon!"
"Are you dumb?! Heaven and earth phenomenon, only void spirit divine-grade and above medicinal pills can trigger it! Elder Ye's medicinal pill already reached void spirit divine-grade!"
"G-Got to be joking, right? Vastsun Universe Pill, void spirit divine-grade?"
"Really what the frick! I was actually able to see a vast spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill be born!"
...
Head Elder's face revealed a look of astonishment. With his experience, how could he not understand what happened?
This scene was simply too soul-stirring!
Want to trigger heaven and earth phenomenon, it was not just any kind of medicinal pill reaching void spirit divine-grade could work!
Only a pil like the Vastsun Universe Pill that seized the good fortune of heaven and earth could it trigger heaven and earth phenomenon.
And this kind of medicinal pill, wanting to refine void spirit divine-grade was undoubtedly a fool's talk.
But now, the crazy talk genuinely happened in front of them.
Ye Yuan was just a Three-star Alchemy God!
How could Ye Yuan do it to this extent?
If not for seeing it with his own eyes, Ruo Xu would never believe no matter what that a Three-star Alchemy God could actually refine a vast spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill!
This was simply a joke.
Even if he witnessed the heaven and earth phenomenon with his own eyes, he still felt that this was a joke!
A joke that heaven made toward him.
Xuan Yu heaved a sigh and said with a bitter smile, "I even thought that Ye Yuan could refine purple spirit divine-grade. I didn't think that he actually directly refined void spirit divine-grade. This guy, I really don't know where his limit is!"
Lu Yi who was beside him also said in wonder, "Master, Elder Ye is really remarkable! This Void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill, probably the entire Heavenly Eagle Imperial City will plunge into madness!"
Xuan Yu smiled and said, "That is, of course! This time, Ruo Xu miscalculated. If Ye Yuan didn't have the ability that could be showcased, how could upstairs possibly agree to let him be an elder? I very much want to see if Ruo Xu is opening the furnace or not opening the furnace."
Lu Yi froze and immediately understood.
He did not expect that the good guy master also had such a mischievous side.
Under this circ.u.mstance right now, whether Ruo Xu opened his furnace or not was a very awkward question.
Open, the jewel was in front, he could not present it at all.
Not opening, the exalted head elder actually did not even have the courage to open the furnace.
What an awkward spectacle!
Ruo Xu regretted until his intestines turned green now. If he had long known it was like this, he might as well open the furnace first.
No idea how long had passed either, the rainbow auspicious cloud faded. Everything returned to tranquility.
A medicinal pill suspended above the medicinal cauldron quietly. Fragrance instantly filled the entire plaza.
"So fragrant!"
"It's my first time smelling such an aromatic medicinal fragrance!"
"The entire plaza is actually able to smell the medicinal fragrance, void spirit divine-grade is indeed extraordinary."
...
Everyone's faces revealed incomparably heated looks. Clearly, they all wanted to obtain this medicinal pill.
There were quite a number of large families' upper echelons present. Toward this medicinal pill, they were naturally extremely eager for it.
This grade of medicinal pill did not just signify being able to create a Divine Lord Realm powerhouse, it even implied the possibility of a limitless future.
Void spirit divine-grade medicinal pills were naturally different from ordinary medicinal pills.
It could consolidate and bolster, stimulating the martial artist's potential, letting the martial artist have even greater upside potential.
A martial artist who exhausted their potential and could only cultivate to first-layered heaven Divine Lord after consuming medicinal pills, after consuming a void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill, there was a very high hope of breaking through to second-layered heaven Divine Lord, even third-layered Divine Lord!
This was still just those whose talents were poor.
After those with good talent consumed it, their future possibilities would simply be unimaginable.
Such a medicinal pill, how could they not go crazy?
"Head Elder, it's your turn."
Ye Yuan's words made the muscles on Ruo Xu's face twitch unceasingly.
The scene seemed to have been frozen.
Everyone's gazes were locked onto Ruo Xu, wanting to see what Head Elder would do.
After all, Head Elder's status was exalted.
Ye Yuan's words virtually forced him into a corner.
Today, no matter what, Head Elder's face was considered utterly lost.
"You … You won!"
Ruo Xu practically squeezed these few words out from the crevices between his teeth.
Chapter 1595 - Astronomical Price Medicinal Pill!
Ruo Xu knew that even if he risked this old life, it was still impossible to refine a void spirit divine-grade medicinal pill.
This kind of medicinal pill only existed in legends.
In reality, he lived to a ripe old age and had seen before God knows how many geniuses. But he had never heard of anyone who could refine a void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill when at Four-star Alchemy God.
As for Three-star Alchemy God, that went even more without saying.
Therefore, he admitted defeat very sensibly.
Of course, he did not have the face to stay here anymore either. After conceding, he left dejectedly.
But at this time, everyone's thoughts were already long not on Head Elder.
An elder of the Wang Family said in a clear voice, "Elder Ye, sell this medicinal pill to our Wang Family! We'll offer 300 million divine essence stones!"
"Elder Ye, don't listen to him, sell to our Yan Family! We'll offer 500 million divine essence stones!"
"Our Liu Family offers 550 million!"
...
Suddenly, these major families' leaders seemed to thrash around violently, arguing until Ye Yuan had a headache.
According to the Pill Tower's rules, even though this Vastsun Universe Pill was refined by Ye Yuan, the ownership belonged to the Pill Tower.
But, if the Pill Tower decided to sell it, 30% of the divine essence stones obtained would be given Ye Yuan.
Ordinary rank three divine pills, even the Heavenly Blood Marrow Changing Pill that Ye Yuan refined at the south city, also merely sold at a price of 50 million.
These major families, the moment they opened their mouths, it was several hundred million divine essence stones. This price already greatly exceeded the price of ordinary rank three divine pills.
"Stop! All stop for me!" Ye
Yuan shouted loudly.
But no one listened to him. Those people were all still clamoring, virtually falling into madness.
Void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill, who did not want one?
As for the price, that was all not a problem.
Ye Yuan seriously could not bear it anymore and shouted angrily, "All shut up for me!"
This yell, Ye Yuan mustered up divine essence, directly overwhelming everyone.
When those people saw that Ye Yuan was angry, they indeed stopped.
Got to be joking. Elder Ye was exceedingly formidable. Offending him, wouldn't they be unable to bear the consequences of it?
Seeing everyone quieten down, Ye Yuan said to Xuan Yu, "Second Elder, this matter had best be left to you."
Xuan Yu smiled and said, "Elders, since everyone is determined to get this Vastsun Universe Pill, then why don't … we hold an auction on the spot to determine the ownership of this medicinal pill. What does everybody think?"
The moment everyone heard, they could not help being surprised.
Who said that Second Elder was a benign person who never tried to offend anybody, this method was vicious!
Auctioning on the spot, no one had any way to rely on connections.
After today, the various major families would definitely pull all sorts of strings to find the Pill Tower to intercede.
At that time, wanting to sell at a higher price would clearly be impossible.
But now, open and transparent, everyone used money to talk. No one could say anything.
This way, they could maximize the benefits of this medicinal pill. It was a good thing for the Pill Tower too.
After all, the Pill Tower had so many elders and disciples. The spirit medicines required and divine essence stones expended were at an extremely terrifying number.
The Pill Tower needed to earn money too!
"I have no objections, do it as Second Elder says then."
"Mn, let nature take its course, I have no objections."
"Just nice, we can also test the value of a void spirit divine-grade medicinal pill. I think that this method is good!"
...
In front of so many people, even if the various elders had some ideas, they naturally did not dare to refute Second Elder either.
After all, saying this sort of word publicly would harm the Pill Tower's interests.
Who dared to slam themselves onto the spearhead at the risk of universal condemnation.
Second Elder smiled slightly and said, "Alright, then it's settled. Deacon Zhang, you're the best at this kind of thing. This auction will be hosted by you then."
Deacon Zhang stepped out of the ranks and said, "Yes, Second Elder."
Below, those major families' powerhouses all cried bitterness without ceasing.
They knew that this medicinal pill was too popular!
Once it entered the auction process, it would definitely greatly exceed three or five hundred million.
This way, for them to want to get this medicinal pill, they would have to spend a lot more money.
Who said that Second Elder was easy to bully? When an honest person schemed, it killed even more subtly without shedding blood.
However, they were seriously unable to refuse the temptation of the void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill. This medicinal pill, they were determined to get it.
One had to know, this medicinal pill could truly enhance the family's strength. Compared to those ordinary medicinal pills, even spending up to a billion was also worth the money.
After all, money could be earned again, but this medicinal pill would not be refined during normal days.
The Heavenly Eagle Imperial City had already existed for no idea how many tens of thousands of years, a void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill was an epoch-making first time ever!
...
Deacon Zhang carefully collected the medicinal pill, placed it inside the jade box, and put it on the table in front of him.
"Everybody, this Zhang has consulted with the elders earlier, the base price for this Vastsun Universe Pill is … 500 million low-grade divine essence stones! Each increment has to be no less than 20 million divine essence stones," Deacon Zhang said in a clear voice.
At this time, the large and small families in the inner city already sent a representative over to bid.
Even those families that did not come also hurriedly sent people over after hearing the news.
But when they heard the base price set by Deacon Zhang, many small families immediately flinched back.
500 million low-grade divine essence stones, this base price already reached the price of rank four divine pills!
This was still just the base price. The final transaction price would definitely be above one billion.
This price was too scary.
Not that they did not have this financial power, it was just that betting all of their financial resources on one medicinal pill was clearly unwise.
Actually, these small families had long known that this medicinal pill, they definitely could not compete with those major families.
But not coming to compete a bit, they could not get through this hurdle either.
"Now, the auction begins!" Deacon Zhang said in a clear voice.
"600 million!"
"650 million!"
"700 million!"
...
"900 million!"
"One billion!"
Everyone all knew that this auction's price would definitely be very horrifying. But no one could have expected that the price actually rose to one billion so quickly.
Deacon Zhang was also secretly tongue-tied in his heart. He had hosted God knows how many auctions before and had never seen before such an enthusiastic increase in prices.
Normally, in the auctioning process, when there was hesitation, he would make some remarks, encouraging everyone to bid an even higher price.
But this time, he had yet to say a single word and the price already doubled!
"1.2 billion!"
"Humph! This Vastsun Universe Pill, our Shi Family is hell-bent on it! 1.5 billion!" a Shi Family's elder shouted.
The Shi Family and Ning Family were the same, both major families of the inner city with tremendous financial power.
The price of 1.5 billion frightened everyone at once.
A rank three divine pill was actually auctioned for an astronomical price of 1.5 billion, this was something that no one dared to imagine in the past.
Deacon Zhang was incomparably shocked in his heart. This was still his first time encountering such an auction.
In virtually a blink of an eye, the price tripled!
"1.5 billion! Elder Shi Song has offered a price of 1.5 billion, is there any higher?" Deacon Zhang finally had a chance to speak.
After a period of silence, a middle-aged man slowly opened his mouth and said, "2 billion!"
Chapter 1596 - Astounding the World With a Single Brilliant Feat
Everyone revealed incredibly shocked expressions, looking over towards that middle-aged man.
"It's the Ning Family's elder, Ning Lixiao! My God, he directly raised the bid by 500 million!"
"Does the Ning Family want to give a plum in return for a peach here, establishing a relationship with Elder Ye?"
"2 billion to buy a rank three divine pill, crazy! Really crazy!"
...
Shi Song clearly also did not expect that someone would throw a wrench into the works. He looked at Ning Lixiao rather surprisedly.
Shi Song gritted his teeth and said, "2.1 billion!"
"2.5 billion!" Ning Lixiao did not bat an eyelid and added 400 million very indifferently.
Shi Song's expression changed and he said to Ning Lixiao in a solemn voice, "Ning Lixiao, are you mad? Raising the price like this has no benefits to anyone!"
Ning Lixiao said coolly, "Since I bid the price, it's naturally worth this price! Shi Zhiyong needs it, Tianping similarly needs it. Enough c
rap, the one with the higher price gets it!"
Shi Song's face flickered incessantly and he gritted his teeth and said, "2.6 billion! Ning Lixiao, if you have the capabilities, offer until 3 billion!"
Ning Lixiao gave him a glance and slowly opened his mouth to say: "3.5 billion!"
"Hiss …"
Everyone all drew a cold breath. They had long expected that this Vastsun Universe Pill would be very expensive, but they did not think that it was actually expensive to such an extent!
For the price of 3.5 billion, one could even purchase some defective divine lord mystic treasure already.
However, it was just a rank three divine pill!
Shi Song's expression changed several times and he said very unhappily, "Ning Lixoa, consider yourself ruthless! Here, this Vastsun Universe Pill is your Ning Family's!"
Ning Lixiao clasped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Shi Song, thanks for giving way."
"3.5 billion! The Ning Family bids a price of 3.5 billion, is there any higher price?"
Deacon Zhang paused for a bit, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and then he followed up and said "3.5 billion once! 3.5 billion twice! 3.5 billion thrice! Done! Congratulations to the Ning Family for obtaining Heavenly Eagle Imperial City's historical first void spirit divine-grade Vastsun Universe Pill!"
A final gong decided it!
Everyone all started dumbfoundedly with their mouths agape, not quite daring to believe this price.
There had never been a rank three divine pill that could sell at a sky-high price of 3.5 billion.
They even somewhat felt that the Ning Family was taken advantage of this time.
Even though this medicinal pill was one in a million, the price of 3.5 billion still made them feel that it was not worth it.
However, Ning Lixiao clearly did not have this awareness.
After receiving the medicinal pill, he found Ye Yuan and clasped his hands as he said with a smile, "Elder Ye, these few days, Siyu this lass was under your care. I represent the Ning Family to owe you a debt of endless gratitude."
Ning Lixiao was very smart. Even though he bought the medicinal pill with 3.5 billion, he did not have the intention of using it to show his favor.
It was as if this medicinal pill was really worth 3.5 billion.
Instead, he came to find Ye Yuan to express thanks for Ning Siyu's matters.
