Chapter 211: Extremely Expensive Transformation Elixir! Extremely Nice Surprise!

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

After sighing lightly, Beigong Jue said, “I shall yield this saber to Young Lord Ye.”

Young Lord Ye was rather surprised for a moment, as this Chief Beigong actually gave up this Sky Devil Flame Saber and wasn’t reluctant at all.

The elder beside Young Lord Ye whispered, “This old wretch is trying to squander our funds and is intentionally hiking the price. His only objective is the Devil Flame Saber Art, moreover, his funds are only sufficient to bid for the Devil Flame Saber Art.”

That’s right, that should be the case.

This Beigong Jue was only raising the bid to waste Young Lord Ye’s gold coins. This way, the number of gold coins that Young Lord Ye had to bid for the Devil Flame Saber Art would only be a little more than 100 million. It was obvious that Beigong Jue had only brought about slightly more than 100 million gold coins. After squandering 80 million gold coins from Young Lord Ye, Beigong Jue would have a higher chance of winning the contest for the Devil Flame Saber Art.

This old man was truly a crafty old fox.

Young Lord Ye’s expression instantly turned awful, but he quickly revealed a pleased sneer. It was obvious that he still had some moves reserved.

“Young Lord Ye made a bid of 80 million gold coins for the Sky Devil Flame Saber. Is there a higher bid?” Su Mei’s voice was shivering slightly. Today’s auction was much more intense than she had imagined. She originally thought that the price of the Sky Devil Flame Saber wouldn’t exceed 40 million, but who would have expected it to reach 80 million.

“If no one else is going to make a bid higher than 80 million gold coins, then this Sky Devil Flame Saber will belong to Young Lord Ye.”

“Three! Two! One!”

“90 million gold coins!”

Someone suddenly made a bid which shocked the entire auction hall.

It was still that hoarse and attractive voice from Madam Qin in the No. 1 private room.

Young Lord Ye’s face instantly turned sinister as he spoke coldly, “Madam Qin, you are certain you want to be at odds with me? Your Northwest Qin City might have overwhelming authority, but my White Cloud City doesn’t fear you.”

That Madam Qin let out a faint laugh and said, “I’m just buying things and paying money. There is no need to be this angsty.”

“Do you have a usage for this saber?” Young Lord Ye questioned with a cold voice.

“I have.” Madam Qin chuckled and said, “I will place it somewhere to ward off evil spirits. Can I not?”

At this moment, Yang Dingtian was truly speechless.

Young Lord Ye gritted his teeth and was about to raise the bid again, but he was stopped by the elder once again.

“Give it to her!” The elder said, “The importance is on the Devil Flame Saber Art. Don’t let her mess you up. She has already spent nearly 200 million on these two items, she no longer has any money to mess with you during the bid for the Devil Flame Saber Art. Furthermore, that Old Fox Beigong is seemingly determined to obtain that Devil Flame Saber Art. We will retain all the money to contest for that Devil Flame Saber Art with more certainty. As for the Sky Devil Flame Saber, we can still look for something similar. But there is only one 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art.”

This White Cloud City’s Young Lord had regained his rationality.

That’s right, the 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art was the most important. The Sky Devil Flame Saber might be rare, but a replacement could still be found.

“Alright then, I will give it up to you. Buy it back to put it as a decoration.” Young Lord Ye said coldly.

Afterward, this Sky Devil Flame Saber was sold to Madam Qin for the price of 90 million.

For a moment, Yang Dingtian truly felt that it was ridiculous. How senseless was this Madam Qin to actually spend such an astronomical amount of gold coins to purchase two items that she didn’t need. Could her hobby be shopping and trampling on other’s faces?

Immediately after, it was the third final item.

“Next up is the third final item, a Transformation Elixir!”

Su Mei personally opened the jade box. The interior of the box looked like it was empty as the Transformation Elixir was invisible.

When a ray of light shined onto the Transformation Elixir, it made this extremely rare elixir reveal its mysterious and beautiful appearance.

“Ahh...”

The auction hall echoed with exclaims of disbelief.

Subsequently, dozens of private room doors were opened one after the other. Almost everyone walked out of their private rooms and stared at the Transformation Elixir on the stage.

Originally, this auction hall was filled with influential people who were all very reserved. They wouldn’t converse with each other normally, but when they saw the Transformation Elixir, almost everyone couldn’t help but start a discussion.

“Heavens... The legendary Transformation Elixir?”

“There truly is a Transformation Elixir. I thought it was merely a legend.”

“I might not have bought anything, but it truly isn’t a waste of trip as I have witnessed the Transformation Elixir.”

“I have lived for nearly 100 years and have never seen a real Transformation Elixir before. I didn’t imagine I will be able to see it today. This Su Mei truly isn’t a simple woman and could actually get her hands on a Transformation Elixir.”

**************************************

Almost everyone was in a heated discussion because the Transformation Elixir was truly too rare. Firstly, none of the Medicine Refinement Master would take the initiative to refine it. Secondly, it was nearly impossible to refine it. Thirdly, it was impossible to find the ingredients.

Hence, almost everyone only heard of this extremely rare and strange Transformation Elixir, but have never seen it in person.

They had never imagined that they would actually be able to witness a real Transformation Elixir in person at this auction.

Yang Dingtian noticed that in the auction hall, there were only three private rooms that weren’t opened.

Madam Qin’s No. 1 private room

Yang Dingtian’s No. 50 private room.

And No. 100 private room, which never uttered a single voice. Yang Dingtian was actually suspecting if this private room was empty.

In the auction hall, the clamor lasted for around five minutes before regaining its serenity. Everyone had also returned to their respective private rooms.

“Transformation Elixir. The base price is 10 million gold coins. Is there anyone willing to make a bid?” Su Mei asked.

Silence!

“Transformation Elixir. The base price is 10 million gold coins. Is there anyone willing to make a bid?” Su Mei asked again.

There was still nothing but silence.

Even though Yang Dingtian felt disappointed, he was already prepared for this outcome.

Although the Transformation Elixir was extremely rare, its value was truly hard to define.

If a person were to consume it, they would change into an entirely different person. The face would change, the bones would change, the skin would change, even the gender would change.

It was truly very mystical but also very horrifying. If a person were to consume it, it was entirely possible to change into a hideous individual.

No matter how rare this elixir was, no one would dare to eat it even if they were bestowed with it.

It could only be bought as a collection or for flaunting. But the base price of 10 million was truly too steep.

Yang Dingtian originally had huge hopes for Madam Qin in the No. 1 private room, as this woman had money without any place to spend. Since she had purchased two treasures with sky-high prices that she had no use for, Yang Dingtian felt that Madam Qin might just purchase it for her collection.

But who would have expected that she wasn’t calling out a price?

“Transformation Elixir, the base price is 10 million gold coins. Is there anyone willing to make a bid?” Su Mei asked for the third time.

The auction hall still had nothing but silence.

Yang Dingtian had completely forsaken all hopes. This item was something that no one was willing to purchase for a high price.

Su Mei looked at Yang Dingtian with helpless eyes and said, “I will start the countdown. When the countdown is finished, and no one is willing to make a bid, this Transformation Elixir will be considered a failed auction and will be returned to the owner.”

“Three! Two! One!”

Su Mei announced, “The countdown is completed. I will declare that this Transformation Elixir is a failed...”

“10 million gold coins.”

Someone suddenly made a bid. Yang Dingtian’s eyes were instantly lit up.

The one who made the bid was still that Madam Qin with the lazy voice.

“I will buy it back to play with it.” Madam Qin said, “My money will have more uses later on, thus, I do not have much for this little plaything.”

Her meaning was very clear. She was only willing to pay 10 million gold coins for this Transformation Elixir. If someone was to raise the bid, she would give up.

Her money was also meant for the Devil Flame Saber Art at the end.

Yang Dingtian smiled bitterly. 10 million gold coins were better than nothing.

Since there were no more hopes for the Devil Flame Saber Art, Yang Dingtian didn’t mind if this Transformation Elixir couldn’t be sold. Had it not been that he couldn’t regret his decision to auction it, Yang Dingtian would want to take the Transformation Elixir back. It might be useless, but it was still very rare, and it was a good idea to have it in the collection.

Su Mei raised her hammer and said, “10 million gold coins, going once.”

“10 million gold coins, going twice.”

“10 million gold coins, going thrice.”

Just as Su Mei’s hammer was coming down...

“15 million gold coins.”

All of a sudden, someone else made a bid.

Furthermore, this bid was actually from No. 100 private room.

The person in this private room didn’t make a bid, nor did the person utter a voice before. This person was the most mysterious person in this auction hall today.

Moreover, it was also one of the three private rooms that had yet to open the door.

Yang Dingtian could hear his voice, which was hoarse but penetrative. It was sharp yet contained vicissitudes.

Just the voice alone sounded like he was a charming man. According to his voice, his age shouldn’t be more than 30 years.

The only bid he made today was for the Transformation Elixir, and it seemed like he was here for the Transformation Elixir.

Madam Qin had already said that she would never increase the price again.

Thus, Su Mei raised her hammer and yelled out, “15 million gold coins, going once!”

“15 million gold coins, going twice!”

“15 million gold coins, going thrice!”

Su Mei’s hammer was coming down...

“30 million gold coins!” Someone made a bid.

Everyone cried out in surprise.

This time, the bid was actually from Madam Qin. She no longer had her lazy voice as her voice had turned stern and severe. It was filled with determined willpower.

“50 million gold coins.” The man in No. 100 private spoke indifferently.

“80 million gold coins.” Madam Qin raised the bid.

“100 million gold coins.” The mysterious man spoke.

“150 million gold coins.” Madam Qin made another bid.

Yang Dingtian was dumbstruck and was about to faint!

He originally didn’t have any expectations for the Transformation Elixir, but now, the price was already at a sky-high 150 million.

He couldn’t react at this moment, and it felt unreal.

It was truly insane. He truly didn’t have any kind of hopes for the Transformation Elixir, thus, he wasn’t going to even make a bid for the Sky Devil Flame Saber.

Right now, he was truly ecstatic and pleasantly surprised.

With the gold coins from the 8th-grade Beast Soul Elixir, he had about 200 million gold coins and had the ability to contest for the Devil Flame Saber Art.

He originally didn’t have any hopes for the Devil Flame Saber Art, but now, a pleasant surprise had actually descended onto him.

This world was truly too unpredictable.

“200 million gold coins.” That mysterious man immediately responded.
