Four Elixirs, fifty million Spirit Stones!

This was absolutely an astronomical price, with an average value of over ten million Spirit Stones per Elixir. This price was even higher than that of the vast majority of eighth-level Elixirs.

"Chang Huan Envoy," Hu Donghe said with a meaningful smile as he looked toward Chang Huan.

"I had not expected you to have such a great interest in the Dragon Tiger Pill," Hu Donghe said, shaking his head slightly. "It seems that the auction rules need to be slightly changed."

"How about this! Of these four Dragon Tiger Pills, each person present may only purchase one. This is also to consider allowing more people to obtain the Dragon Tiger Pill," Hu Donghe pondered and then suggested.

"I am willing to pay twenty million Spirit Stones to purchase one of the Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pills," Hu Donghe continued.

Twenty million Spirit Stones for a sixth-level Elixir.

If this got out, it might scare a bunch of people. However, those present, while surprised that even Hu Donghe wanted to buy the Dragon Tiger Pills, were not overly shocked at the twenty million Spirit Stones for one Perfect Quality pill.

Dragon Tiger Pills could not be compared to ordinary Elixirs; there was much involved.

One point was that if one could get their hands on a Dragon Tiger Pill, it could be used for research. If someone managed to uncover the Pill Formula for the Dragon Tiger Pill, that would be worth far more than just tens of millions of Spirit Stones.

The people inside the Alchemy Hall clearly understood this point. That’s why nobody thought it was inappropriate to purchase a Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pill for twenty million Spirit Stones.

"Does anyone offer a higher price?" Hu Donghe asked, seeing that no one else was bidding.

Everyone shook their heads.

It wasn’t that they couldn’t afford a higher price. The main reason was that since the Great Alchemist King Hu Donghe had offered twenty million Spirit Stones, would they really go higher and compete with Hu Donghe? Not getting the Dragon Tiger Pill was a minor issue, but offending Hu Donghe would be a serious problem.

"Since there is no higher offer, then this one Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pill is mine," Hu Donghe said with a smile, taking one of the Perfect Quality Elixirs.

"I also bid twenty million Spirit Stones for the remaining Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pill!" Chang Huan hurriedly spoke up before Hu Donghe could continue. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Another twenty million Spirit Stones.

The others exchanged glances, sighing helplessly in their hearts.

Chang Huan, as the Special Envoy from the Holy City, represented the Holy Master to some extent. One way or another, they had to give Chang Huan that respect. Bidding against the Chang Huan Envoy just didn’t seem right.

Moreover, the bid of twenty million Spirit Stones was indeed quite high.

And so, the second Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pill fell into the hands of Chang Huan.

"Many thanks! I sincerely appreciate everyone for leaving this pill for me," Chang Huan said with a smile, bowing his hand to the crowd. After paying twenty million Spirit Stones, he took the second Perfect Quality Dragon Tiger Pill.

"There are still two First-class Quality Dragon Tiger Pills here. Those interested in these two Elixirs may now bid," Hu Donghe said, looking at the two remaining Dragon Tiger Pills in his hand.

"I bid ten million Spirit Stones for one of them," a judge from the Fang Family immediately voiced.

This judge from the Fang Family had made up his mind to acquire a Dragon Tiger Pill no matter what. As long as he could take the Elixir back, after extensive analysis and research by a multitude of the family’s High-level Alchemists, there was still hope to figure out the Pill Formula for the Dragon Tiger Pill. Of course, this would require a substantial cost, needing a large amount of materials and time to possibly succeed.

"Once the Pill Formula was secured, all efforts would seem worthwhile."

"I bid eleven million Spirit Stones," said one of the judges after glancing at the Fang Family judge.

"Twelve million Spirit Stones!" The Fang Family judge hesitated not, his demeanor indicating his determination to win the Dragon Tiger Pill at all costs.

"It seems Brother Fang is set on getting the Dragon Tiger Pill. I’ll give up then," the bidding judge smiled at the Fang Family judge and shook his head in resignation.

"Thank you, Brother Wang, I owe you one for this," expressed the Fang Family Alchemist, quickly acknowledging the favor.

The third Dragon Tiger Pill was successfully secured by the Fang Family judge for the price of twelve million Spirit Stones. It was only after the Elixir was in his possession that he finally breathed a sigh of relief, a smile spreading across his face.

"Let’s move on to the final Dragon Tiger Pill. Those interested, place your bids!" announced Hu Donghe, gently shaking the last Dragon Tiger Pill in his hand after concluding the trade of the third.

At this moment, Wan Li bit her lip.

She was feeling extremely frustrated.

She too, earnestly wanted to obtain the Dragon Tiger Pill, but at the same time, she felt that bidding for it herself would be rather embarrassing.

The Dragon Tiger Pill was concocted by Jing Yan, and it was precisely because of this Elixir that her Wan Family’s Wan Lai lost the qualification for first place. Now, the thought of purchasing a Dragon Tiger Pill truly made her feel suffocated.

"No way!"

"I must get this last Dragon Tiger Pill. The first place for Wan Lai is lost and irrevocable. Worrying about losing face now would be the real foolishness!" Wan Li was a resolute person, and quickly made up her mind to go for the final Dragon Tiger Pill.

"I’ll bid ten million Spirit Stones," shouted Wan Li to Hu Donghe.

Hearing Wan Li’s voice, Wan Lai’s face immediately turned ashen. Wan Li was an elder of his Wan Family.

Wan Lai obviously regarded Jing Yan as an enemy, one he loathed to the bone. And now, an elder from his own family was actually bidding for the enemy’s concocted Elixir. Wan Lai felt as if a great stone had fiercely struck his chest, rage nearly driving him to spit out blood.

However, Wan Li’s decision was beyond his power to change. He could only watch, unable to do anything. Wan Lai’s gaze towards Jing Yan turned even colder. He truly wished he could devour Jing Yan whole.

"Eleven million Spirit Stones!" someone called out a higher price.

"Twelve million Spirit Stones!" Wan Li immediately raised her bid.

Clearly, she wanted to project the same sense of determination that the Fang Family judge had just shown, convincing her competitors to step down.

This time, however, things were not as smooth. After she raised the bid to twelve million Spirit Stones, the judge who had offered eleven million did not bid again, but another voice did.

"I bid thirteen million Spirit Stones for the Dragon Tiger Pill," offered Ma Rong Alchemist.

Jing Yan also looked at Ma Rong in surprise. He had not expected that Ma Rong would be willing to spend so many Spirit Stones to purchase this last Dragon Tiger Pill.

"Fourteen million Spirit Stones!" Wan Li glared fiercely at Ma Rong, biting her lip hard and gritting her teeth as she announced a new bid.

Fourteen million Spirit Stones!

This price was indeed frightful. Although the Wan Family was the top Alchemy Dao Family on the Heavenly Origin Continent with profound family resources, over ten million Spirit Stones was not something they could afford to throw around lightly.

Ma Rong looked at Wan Li and seemed hesitant.
