Chapter 2157 An Unexpected Joy, Star Stone

"Fellow Daoists, this is an extremely rare ancient pill formula—the Thousand Gold Pill Formula!"

"The Thousand Gold Pill is a pill that can enhance the cultivation of fellow cultivators in the mid-stage of the Celestial Immortal realm!"

"This time, our Sishui Chamber of Commerce auction house is offering this Thousand Gold Pill formula as a benefit to all of you fellow Daoists."

"The recipe for the Thousand Gold Elixir has a starting price of 200,000 mid-grade immortal stones. Each bid must be at least 10,000 low-grade immortal stones!"

The voice of Fairy Chunling rang out.

Everyone present was immediately impressed.

Even Chen Xuan was delighted.

"Unexpectedly, the Thousand Gold Pill formula, such a rare ancient pill formula, is only priced at two hundred thousand mid-grade immortal stones. This price is indeed much lower than the market price!"

"After all, an ancient pill formula that can enhance cultivation level would fetch at least two million mid-grade immortal stones!"

Upon thinking of this, Chen Xuan was immediately filled with excitement.

But he didn't rush to make a move.

He knew that the starting price of 200,000 mid-grade immortal stones seemed very low.

In fact, it would attract countless True Immortal realm experts to bid wildly.

At that time, the transaction price of this Qianjin Dan formula will be increased several times.

Pre-bid is pointless.

However, Chen Xuan's decision not to bid does not mean that others will not bid.

As soon as Fairy Chunling finished speaking, countless excited voices rang out from the scene.

"Two hundred and twenty thousand middle-grade immortal stones!"

"Two hundred and forty thousand mid-grade immortal stones!"

"Two hundred and sixty thousand!"

"Three hundred thousand!"

Soon, the price of the Thousand Gold Pill formula was raised to 600,000 mid-grade immortal stones.

But at this moment, Chen Xuan remained as steady as Mount Tai.

There was not a trace of anxiety on his face.

Seeing this, Yu Hui, who was standing to the side, suddenly became somewhat anxious.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen, the price of this Thousand Gold Pill formula has now reached 600,000 mid-grade spirit stones. If you don't need the formula, why don't you make a move?"

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, there's no need to rush. It's not the right time yet."

"Not the right time?"

Yu Hui looked puzzled.

Seeing that Chen Xuan wasn't in a hurry at all, he didn't say anything more.

He could only shake his head inwardly.

A moment later, when the price of the Thousand Gold Pill formula was raised to one million mid-grade immortal stones, Chen Xuan finally spoke.

"One million and one million middle-grade immortal stones!"

Chen Xuan's lazy voice rang out.

The auction hall of the Surabaya Chamber of Commerce fell silent.

The True Immortals who originally wanted to continue raising the price also stopped.

Surprised gazes unanimously turned toward the private room where Chen Xuan was.

Unfortunately, their divine senses were quickly and completely blocked by the protective array outside the private room.

This aroused curiosity in everyone.

"I never thought someone would be willing to spend so much, adding 100,000 mid-grade immortal stones all at once."

"That's right, did the middle-grade immortal stones really just fall from the sky?"

"Who says otherwise? It seems this person is deliberately causing trouble. If so, how could I let him succeed?"

Countless angry curses from true immortals resounded.

Many people are now truly enraged.

And secretly planned to compete with Chen Xuan in bidding.

Soon, the voices of more than a dozen True Immortal Realm experts rang out rapidly.

"One million one hundred and thirty thousand!"

"One million five hundred thousand!"

"1.2 million!"

……

Chen Xuan smiled indifferently.

He was well aware that he had thoroughly enraged those bidding at this moment.

But Chen Xuan was not afraid at all.

With his current cultivation level, as long as it's not a Golden Immortal realm expert who makes a move, he would have the strength to fight even if he encountered a Heavenly Immortal realm expert at the late stage of perfection.

"Heh, one million four hundred thousand!"

Chen Xuan smiled calmly and raised the price again by 100,000 mid-grade immortal stones.

This immediately discouraged many people who had originally wanted to bid against Chen Xuan.

"Just who is this person? Such a grand gesture."

“That’s right. The auction has only just begun, and he’s already willing to spend so much. In that case, there’s no need for me to stoop to his level. I’m giving up on this pill formula.”

"Heh, I don't want to lower myself to his level. It's just an ancient pill formula to improve cultivation, yet he's willing to spend 1.4 million mid-grade immortal stones. He's really generous!"

Countless jeers erupted.

Most of the True Immortals who were originally bidding chose to give up.

The remaining two or three people tentatively bid, but seeing that Chen Xuan showed no signs of backing down, they decisively chose to give up.

Upon seeing this, Fairy Chunling, who was presiding over the auction, immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations to this fellow Daoist for winning a formula for the Thousand Gold Pill for 1.6 million mid-grade immortal stones!"

Soon, the recipe for the Thousand Gold Elixir was delivered to Chen Xuan's private room.

And Cui'er personally presented it to Chen Xuan.

"Senior, this is your pill formula. Please take a look!" Cui'er said with a smile.

"Thank you for your trouble, fairy!"

Chen Xuan nodded.

With a casual gesture, he picked up the prescription for the Thousand Gold Pill and examined it carefully.

Seeing that there were no problems with the pill formula, he then paid the full amount of immortal stones.

He also took out one hundred mid-grade immortal stones and gave them to Cui'er.

"Thank you very much, Fairy Cui'er. If it weren't for your help this time, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to buy this pill formula. It's just a small token of my appreciation, please don't find it offensive!"

Cui'er accepted the magic stone, her face beaming with excitement.

One hundred medium-grade immortal stones.

This is equivalent to 10,000 low-grade immortal stones.

For these Earth Immortals, this is a considerable income.

Chen Xuan gave it to her so casually, which made Cui'er very happy.

"Thank you, senior."

After thanking her, Cui'er quickly and obediently left the private room.

Yu Hui, standing to the side, naturally saw all of this.

After Cui'er left, Yu Hui looked at Chen Xuan and smiled, "Fellow Daoist Chen Xuan, you are truly generous! You actually spent 1.6 million mid-grade immortal stones to acquire this Thousand Gold Pill formula. Congratulations!"

"Haha, this is all thanks to you, fellow Daoist. In the future, if you ever need any pills refined, just come to me. I can refine a batch of pills for you free of charge as a token of my gratitude!" Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Yu Hui was overjoyed.

"If that's the case, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen!"

For Chen Xuan, refining a batch of pills was a piece of cake.

For Yu Hui, however, asking someone to refine a batch of pills was no easy task.

Even if he had familiar alchemists, asking them to help him refine pills would be extremely expensive.

Chen Xuan's willingness to refine pills for him was already an immense favor.

What's more, it's free.

No wonder Yu Hui was so happy.

"Haha, we hit it off immediately, so there's no need to be so polite!"

Chen Xuan said with a smile.

At this very moment, the auction continues.

Following that, many more rare and precious materials appeared one after another.

Top-grade immortal artifacts, finished elixirs, etc.

These things didn't hold much appeal for Chen Xuan.

However, Chen Xuan took a liking to a mid-grade supreme immortal artifact that appeared along the way.

Unfortunately, there were far too many True Immortals bidding against each other.

In the end, it was acquired by someone for an incredibly high price of twelve million mid-grade immortal stones.

This scene truly shocked Chen Xuan for a long time.

"Twelve million? Just to buy a mid-grade supreme immortal artifact? When did the price of supreme immortal artifacts become so expensive?" Chen Xuan was speechless.

Yu Hui, standing to the side, nodded and said, "Outside the auction house, a mid-grade supreme immortal artifact would only cost around eight million mid-grade immortal stones. But inside the auction house, it can fetch a sky-high price of twelve million. I really don't know if these guys are here for the mid-grade immortal artifact or for Fairy Chunling!"

"Haha, perhaps it's both?"

"That's...right too!"

Yu Hui was taken aback.

He quickly nodded with a smile.

The two then continued attending the auction.

Unfortunately, the items that were auctioned next, although of very good quality, were of little use to either of them.

However, it did broaden Chen Xuan's horizons considerably.

Among them was a Nine Yin Jujube, which turned out to be an extremely rare elixir that could repair the soul.

Unfortunately, this item was snatched up as soon as it appeared.

In the end, it was acquired by someone for an incredibly high price of thirty million mid-grade immortal stones.

Chen Xuan was not in a position to comment on this matter.

After all, the Nine Yin Jujube, which is of no use to him, may be of great use to others.

About half a cup of tea later, a terrifying fluctuation of spatial rule power suddenly appeared on the auction platform.

Soon, a female cultivator dressed in a bright green short skirt appeared gracefully on the auction platform, carrying a tray covered with red silk.

The terrifying power of spatial rules was constantly erupting from the tray in the female cultivator's hands.

This prompted countless people to investigate with their divine senses.

However, no one's divine sense was able to see through what was covered beneath the red silk.

At this moment, Chen Xuan also showed a hint of curiosity.

However, he did not activate his divine sense, but secretly activated the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye.

Wow!

What was beneath the red silk was instantly revealed.

Beneath the red silk lay a piece of emerald-green celestial ore.

On the surface of the immortal mine, a vast power of spatial rules continuously emanates.

Even though the red silk covered most of it, a considerable amount of spatial power still emanated from it.

Upon seeing this, Chen Xuan's expression instantly lit up with secret delight.

"This... if I'm not mistaken, it should be a Star Stone, right?"

Starry Sky Stone!

This is the immortal ore that Chen Xuan needs to refine the Big Dipper Seven Stars Formation.

Over the years, Chen Xuan has kept the news about the Starry Sky Stone on the Moon Shadow Society's task list.

Unfortunately, no one has contacted him yet.

Chen Xuan never expected that he would be so lucky as to encounter a Starry Sky Stone at the Sishui Chamber of Commerce auction house.

"Now that I've come across this, I'm naturally going to get my hands on it!"

Chen Xuan smiled secretly.

He quickly put away the Heavenly Illusion Demon Eye and waited quietly for the auction to begin.

Before long, Fairy Chunling casually waved her hand and directly lifted the red silk on the tray.

Her loud voice followed.

"Fellow Daoists, the next item to be auctioned is a celestial ore—the Starry Sky Stone!"

"Starry Sky Stones are excellent for crafting arrays. Starting price: five million mid-grade immortal stones. Each bid must be at least fifty thousand mid-grade immortal stones!"
