The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 111 - Red-Blood Longevity Pill

"Breakthrough Pill!" Everyone breathed a mouthful of cool air as they heard the name of this pill.

"That's right." Jin Rou smiled, "This is a Breakthrough Pill with a 100% success of breakthrough."

"Impossible!" Mao Ren was shocked as he heard that the pill guaranteed a hundred percent success. He reexamined the pill again... soon his eyes glowed with excitement that he failed to contain as he exclaimed, "This... really has a hundred percent success of breaking through!"

As an alchemist himself, Mao Ren knew how to see the effectiveness of such pill. But never did he see something like this! A pill that could give its full effectiveness to the user. What type of a great and revered master alchemist could possibly concoct such a pill?! Although Breakthrough Pill was a 6-tier pill and could be created by any master alchemists of rank 6-star and above, the guaranteed effectiveness or success is entirely a different story. After all, depending on the success rate of a pill would determine its worth.

As for a hundred percent success rate? That's something everyone would be dying to get! He was already imagining a scene where the bidders would go crazy throwing money just to buy this pill. After all, many old monsters already reached a huge and troublesome bottleneck preventing them to breakthrough.

Jin Rou smiled as he asked, "So how is it? Does it qualified to be auctioned?"

"More than qualified, Esteemed Customer!" Mao Ren almost jumped in joy as he heard this question. If not for the fact that there were many people present here, he might already claim this pill for himself. But of course, he could not do it. After all, this meant to be auctioned.

"Oh... right, I still have another pill here. Please check it." Jin Rou handed over a small bottle with a red-glowing in it. It was a pill that was shining brightly red with circulating blood inside it. It emitted a powerful and imposing aura as if it was the greatest pill of them all.

"Red-Blood Longevity Pill?!" Mao Ren's eyes shone once again as his hands trembled when he held the bottle that contained the pill.

Red-Blood Longevity Pill is a 7-tier pill that only revered 8-star master alchemists of this world could concoct! In fact, not all 8-star master alchemists could concoct this as this had an extremely low chance of being concocted. One would already be lucky if the pill could give 10% of its effectiveness. This was highly sought by everyone especially those old monsters that nearly approaching the death gate. After all, this pill as its name said a longevity pill that could extend one's life depending on its effectiveness rate.

So far, the Alchemy Tower's tower master, an 8-star master alchemist who has the most potential breaking through the chains of 8-star advancing to 9-star, concocted the Red-Blood Longevity Pill with its terrifying 57% effectiveness! The full effectiveness of a Red-Blood Longevity Pill can give one 100 years extension to life. So what does it mean to have 57%? It meant that your life could be extended up to 57 years! For those dying monsters, these years were small. But this was better than nothing. At the very least, they could live longer. This was especially the case for the ancestors of most sects and guilds, in order to guard their sects from intruders.

"Yes, and just like the Breakthrough Pill, it has a 100% effectiveness rate." Jin Rou did not beat to the bush.

Mao Ren inhaled long as he examined the pill again. His body trembled as he looked at Jin Rou like he saw a monster that he's most terrified with. "This has indeed a 100% effectiveness rate..." He wanted to say something but his throat was stuck as he looked at Jin Rou. The more he observed this man in front of him, the more it got deeper like an endless abyss.

Jin Rou felt uncomfortable as he felt that piercing gaze of Mao Ren, "Don't look at me like that. I did not concoct it. Those were just given to me by someone..."

He lied. He concocted those pills, to be honest. However, if he says that it was him who concocted it, wouldn't it attract him trouble? He wanted to stay low after all. Besides, he will appear suspicious and many people may investigate him. Although he was not afraid of any people here in this world, it was still best to not attract unnecessary trouble upon himself. After all, he would not be the only one going to be affected.

"Ohh..." Mao Ren suddenly came into realization, "May I ask what name of the man who gave these pills to you?" He wanted to know who's this overpowered master alchemist who could concoct in such 100% effectiveness rate... If he could rope that powerful man here, without the backing of the Alchemy Tower, he could still be independent along with the auction house. In fact, he was already imagining that his position in the Alchemy Tower and Black Aria Auction would soar by leaps and bounds.

"This..." Jin Rou did not know what to answer.

"Oh nevermind. Forget that I asked." Mao Ren thought that he was being a rusher here. He could just take this slowly... his time will come as long as he waits patiently.

But little did they know that the one he was looking for was already in front of him.

"Okay then." Jin Rou heaved a sigh of relief. He avoided committing another lie this time.

"Esteemed Customer, about the auctioning of these pills..." Mao Ren clapped his hands, "Our auction house will be getting 10% of the total bid each of the items."

"Sure, no problem." Jin Rou said.

"Then, we have the tradition of letting the clients who auction something here, decide the starting bid of their items. May I ask what is your desired starting bid for these items?" Mao Ren asked with full of smiles in his face.

"I will leave it up to you... what you think the reasonable starting bid for these, I will go for it." As Jin Rou did not know what starting bid he should place, he left the decision to the manager.

"This..." Mao Ren did not expect this. Usually, the clients would be greedy enough to start a bidding price already in a high-sky amount which sometimes the auction house found unreasonable and started negotiating. Unexpectedly, it was not the case for Jin Rou, so it was going well over what he expected, "Alright then"

In fact, even Jin Rou priced a sky-high starting bid with the two pills, with its effectiveness rate, he doubted that there would someone complain. Furthermore, the owner might also agree with this.

"Alright, Esteemed Client, we will prepare a room for you inside the auction hall, please..." Mao Ren said as he gestured.
