#367 - The seventh-level longevity pill must be obtained
Ji Linglong smiled and said, "The ingredients used in this perfume are top-notch, and the production is not easy. This time, we have only produced one thousand bottles of 'Supreme Beauty'. The starting bid for each bottle is 790,000 spirit stones, and bidding can begin now!"
Seven hundred and ninety thousand?
The male cultivators were shocked.
If it were magical treasures or elixirs, 790,000 spirit stones would be nothing.
But this is just a small bottle of perfume. Is it worth that price?
What a joke!
Who would be such a fool? Isn't this insane!
But the female cultivators thought differently.
From the spirit crystal screen in front of them, everyone could see the detailed ingredients of the perfume.
"... Um, fairy, excuse me, but is it really worth it to buy a bottle of broken perfume for 790,000 spirit stones?"
"What do you mean 'broken perfume'? What do you know, you stinky man? You can't even afford 790,000 spirit stones. Think about whether you have worked hard enough these years!"
The male cultivator who was rebuffed turned pale, wanting to retort, but seeing the many female cultivators around glaring at him, he wisely chose to shut up.
Soon, bottles of 'Supreme Beauty' were auctioned off. In the later stages, the highest bottle even exceeded the high price of ten million spirit stones.
Even Qin Changqing couldn't help but secretly click his tongue at this price.
They're making a killing!
According to Wen Luqing, the cost of each bottle of 'Supreme Beauty' is only tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Of course, he didn't deceive consumers. The ingredients inside are all real, but there's only a tiny bit of each ingredient.
Like the musk of the Fragrant Cloud Stork, one musk sac can make hundreds of bottles of 'Supreme Beauty', and it's an essence that the Fragrant Cloud Stork spits out using a special technique, so it's renewable.
It's just that this kind of monster is very rare in the Central Region!
Currently, the Changqing Alliance has already bred many Fragrant Cloud Storks, which are renewable resources, not as complicated as those female cultivators think.
The cost is still controlled by them.
It's a bit wicked!
However, there is also the technical cost of Wen Luqing, the perfume master, which cannot be measured by value.
The Changqing Alliance has earned hundreds of millions of spirit stones from 'Supreme Beauty' alone.
After this, the Changqing Chamber of Commerce's perfume industry will inevitably usher in a huge period of explosive growth, and its popularity will also increase rapidly.
This is what Qin Changqing wanted.
The male cultivators present also widened their eyes, witnessing the madness of the surrounding female cultivators, and secretly clicked their tongues.
Women are terrifying when they go crazy!
Can't afford it, can't afford it!
An Zhiyuan looked at An Jiayue speechlessly: "You spent 7.8 million spirit stones to bid for such a broken thing. If your mother finds out, see how she punishes you!"
An Jiayue snorted: "Daddy, it is a woman's nature to love beauty. I bid for two bottles. If you give one bottle to Mom, she will definitely be very happy, and she might even forgive you for taking a concubine."
"Really?" An Zhiyuan was dubious.
"Of course it's true!" An Jiayue smiled and stuffed a bottle of 'Supreme Beauty' into An Zhiyuan's hand, then looked at the spirit crystal screen in surprise: "Dad, look, the designer of this 'Supreme Beauty' even includes Brother Changqing!"
Several people came closer to take a look, and saw that below the introduction of 'Supreme Beauty', the names of the perfume designers were impressively written: Qin Changqing, Wen Luqing…
This kid really has some ability, his interests are wide…
An Zhiyuan muttered in his heart.
As the auction items were released one by one, the cultivators from various states also saw the terrifying foundation of the Changqing Chamber of Commerce.
From magical treasures to elixirs, from jewelry to robes, and even various high-level array disks and top-quality talismans, everything was available, and many of them had not appeared on the spirit posts before.
The atmosphere at the scene was also high all the way, and it never subsided.
Although the cultivators from various states spent a lot of spirit stones, they did not feel any dissatisfaction in their hearts. Instead, they felt that it was their blessing to be able to participate in such an unprecedented auction.
After another round of auctions, Ji Linglong raised her hand and pressed down, waiting for everyone to slowly quiet down. With a wave of her hand, a delicate treasure box appeared on the cloud platform in front of her. She smiled faintly and said, "This is one of the most important auction items in our auction. I believe everyone has seen it on the spirit posts before, so I won't introduce it much."
Waving her hand to open the treasure box, in an instant, the misty spiritual energy dazzled everyone's eyes.
"Seventh-order top-grade Longevity Pill, starting bid of five billion spirit stones, with each increase not less than ten million!"
Ji Linglong didn't waste any time and directly started the auction.
Inside the private room.
Sun Hong, who had been squinting his eyes and sitting cross-legged quietly, suddenly opened his eyes.
It's finally here!
"Spare no expense, bid for it!"
Sun Hong said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The chief steward of the imperial palace sat solemnly in front of the spirit crystal screen and directly entered the price.
"Ten billion spirit stones!"
As soon as this price was announced, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly quieted down.
What's going on?
It doubled all of a sudden?
Others didn't know, but the people of Qingzhou immediately understood after seeing the private room that made the bid.
It turned out to be His Majesty!
Most people knew about Sun Hong's approaching lifespan. Being able to encounter this seventh-order Longevity Pill this time, he would naturally obtain it at all costs!
If anyone competes with him for this Longevity Pill, I am afraid they will be resented, and may even suffer death.
The local cultivators of Qingzhou did not dare to bid casually, but other states did not care.
Emperor of the Chongxu Dynasty?
What does it matter to me!
It's not my problem!
You need it, but I don't?
"Eleven billion spirit stones!"
Immediately someone started to raise the price.
The face of the Emperor of the Chongxu Dynasty is not useful!
Sun Hong's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes swept over the bidder, with murderous intent bursting out.
"Fifteen billion spirit stones!"
"Seventeen billion spirit stones!"
The seventh-order Longevity Pill is different from other seventh-order pills. It is extremely difficult to refine, and few alchemists can refine it. It is a very scarce special pill.
It's hard to come by!
As cultivators, they all pursue longevity, who doesn't want to live a few more years.
Maybe they will break through in these few years, and then they will increase their lifespan.
This pill represents not only life, but also hope!
"Twenty billion spirit stones!" Sun Hong shouted in a low voice.
The chief steward of the imperial palace immediately entered the price.
The scene was quiet again.
They all saw that this emperor was determined to get this seventh-order Longevity Pill.
But there were still people who didn't take Sun Hong seriously at all.
"Twenty-five billion spirit stones!"
"Twenty-six billion spirit stones!"
"… Thirty billion spirit stones!"
The price continued to rise, and it didn't even stop.
The chief steward of the imperial palace frowned slightly.
They didn't care about 30 billion spirit stones, but the other party came to Qingzhou's territory and didn't give any face, which made him a little unhappy.
Sun Hong was even more furious, directly pushed away the chief steward, personally went into battle, and entered the price on the spirit crystal screen.
"Fifty billion spirit stones!"
