Chapter 45 - 45 Water element grass appears (1/2)

Lan Jinjing understood how amazing these pills were. As a cultivator, directly skipping a minor stage of a rank in cultivation, would save you at least a few months of work.

However, she still motioned for the crowd to quiet down as she said

''There are a total of 120 pills for sale this time, all of them will be auctioned in 4 batches of 30 pills.''

When the crowd heard that, many people in the crowd were disheartened that they couldn't buy each pill individually, but the eyes of the richer people inside the private rooms were shining as they were eagerly waiting to start bidding.

''Who knew I would be so lucky today? I came here for the 'golden lion cub', but stumbled upon this instead.''

''Haha Meng Liang, I'm sure that I have more sect points than you. Can you afford to not bid for these 'Qi barrier-breaking' pills? But if you do then how are you going to compete with me for the 'golden lion cub?''

The voices originated from 2 different private rooms.

The 2 people who spoke were Elder Lu Niu and Elder Meng Liang.

Although the 2 of them were friends and were used to bantering with each other, Elder Meng Liang knew that Lu Niu was right.

He gritted his teeth as he said to a young disciple who was standing beside him inside the private room

''Quickly return to the family and ask the Patriarch for more sect points. Inform him that the 'Qi barrier-breaking pills' have appeared in the auction and we probably won't have enough sect points to bid for the 'golden lion cub' later.''

The young man quickly acknowledged the order as he rushed back to quickly inform his patriarch.

''The starting price for the first 3 bottles of pills is 6000 sect points and every increment must be at a minimum of 100 sect points''

The crowd below was startled at just the starting price of the pills but the people in the private rooms weren't daunted at all by the high price.

''7000''

''8000''

''I, Li Wei bid 10.000 sect points. I hope that the fellow daoists will give me some face'' suddenly an elderly voice shouted.

As soon as this voice was heard many people stop bidding. Elder Lu Niu said then

''If senior Li Wei wishes to purchase this batch of pills then of course I won't compete with you''

''Right, I am intrigued by this new recipe to create the 'Qi barrier-breaking' pill. Even though it's a low-level pill, it can prove helpful in my research'' Li Wei answered from his private room.

Shun Long frowned that this old man wanted to purchase his batch of pills and for such a low price. Shun Long had originally estimated that every 3 bottles of 'Qi barrier-breaking pills would be sold for at least 12.000 sect points but this old man shamelessly used his status when bidding to deter others from competing with him. As an accomplished rank1 silver grade alchemist, people would be unwilling to offend Li Wei just for 3 bottles of pills, especially when there were 9 more bottles for sale.
