Protect Our Chief-Chapter 637 - 66: Obtained! Infinite Treasure Pill
...
Compared to people from typical Purple Mansion families, the Zuoqiu Family’s entourage appeared noticeably more composed and confident.
This was a temperament gradually developed from a long-term advantageous position, looking around confidently. The saying "residing long in a position, nobility arises" speaks to this principle.
"Shihai, would a Fourth-Grade Noble Family also be interested in the ’Spirit Communication Treasure Pill’ or the ’Infinite Treasure Pill’?" Wang Shouzhe’s expression was slightly solemn.
"Fourth Grandfather, both the Spirit Communication Treasure Pill and Infinite Treasure Pill are Sixth-Grade Spirit Pills. Not only are their materials scarce, but their crafting requirements are also extremely high. It is said that only an Alchemist at the Divine Power Realm can craft them," Wang Shihai replied. "A Fourth-Grade Noble Family is still a Purple Mansion Family, so they naturally remain interested in Sixth-Grade Spirit Pills. However, because Fourth-Grade families are extremely powerful and often dominate a county, they surpass us in connections, channels, and heritage, making it considerably easier for them to acquire Sixth-Grade Treasure Pills than it is for us."
"Understood, they would focus more on cost-effectiveness." Wang Shouzhe nodded, feeling slightly relieved.
Just like the ’Celestial Spirit Pill’ for Ninth-Grade Noble Families, where due to fewer channels and rare opportunities, they are often willing to bid over the price when they have a chance to acquire one.
But with the current status of the Wang Family, there are more channels available to obtain a Fourth-Grade Celestial Spirit Pill. If the price is not appropriate, they can choose not to buy and wait for an opportunity to buy at a suitable price later.
"In most cases, it is indeed as Fourth Grandfather said," Wang Shihai slightly frowned and said, "But precisely because a Fourth-Grade Noble Family is stronger and wealthier, if they genuinely need a certain treasure urgently, their ability to bid over can become quite terrifying."
"In that case, we shall wait and watch."
Wang Shouzhe was also calm, though he had a great need for the Infinite Treasure Pill. But if it truly reached an unbearable point, letting it go would also be without regret.
At worst, they could slowly search for it later.
Half an hour passed.
Everyone in the private rooms gradually gathered, and the auction formally began.
Compared to the auction Wang Shouzhe attended previously in East Sea, this auction had a much higher standard. Not only did most of the families attending the auction come from Sixth or Fifth Grades, but even the auctioneer who hosted the event was an elder at the Celestial Human Realm.
This was also to prevent the auctioneer from being too weak to hold the event together.
After a round of welcoming remarks to set the mood, soon, the first auction item was brought up.
It was a jade box, neatly filled with thirty aura-filled, fragrance-rich Spirit Pills faintly emitting a blue glow.
"The first auction item, Fourth-Grade Spirit Pill ’Soul-Nurturing Pill,’ thirty pills," the auctioneer introduced. "This pill can nurture the soul and enhance vitality; it’s suitable for Purple Mansion Realm cultivators during training and can also serve as an auxiliary Spirit Pill for Celestial Pride cultivators aiming for the Purple Mansion. The starting bid is three hundred thousand, with each bid not less than ten thousand."
"?"
Wang Shouzhe’s expression changed slightly.
Truly worthy of a high-tier auction; the first auction item was the Fourth-Grade Spirit Pill, Soul-Nurturing Pill.
In terms of unit price, although this Spirit Pill is much lower than the Celestial Spirit Pill, also a Fourth-Grade item, the Celestial Spirit Pill is a Promotion Elixir needed to breakthrough to the Spirit Platform Realm, usually one is enough. However, the Soul-Nurturing Pill is a type of everyday training supplement pill...
Wang Shouzhe was slightly tempted, wanting to acquire it for Ancestor Longyan’s use.
"Don’t rush, Shouzhe," Ancestor Longyan seemed to have seen through Wang Shouzhe’s thoughts and said calmly, "I am currently only in the early stage of the Celestial Human Realm, having the ’Great Gathering Spirit Pill’ is already sufficient. Wait until the later stage to switch to this pill. Today, under any circumstances, secure the Infinite Treasure Pill first. Everything else can be postponed~"
"Yes, Ancestor." Wang Shouzhe nodded in agreement.
Though the Soul-Nurturing Pill is precious, it is more common than the Infinite Treasure Pill. With the current heritage of the Wang Family, as long as they are willing to find a way, they can still manage to acquire quite a lot; there’s no need to buy it here.
Nonetheless, Wang Shouzhe not wanting it doesn’t mean other families won’t.
The thirty Sun-Nurturing Pills at three hundred thousand were a price sinkhole with lots of room for price growth. Before long, the bidding price was raised to three hundred and eighty thousand and ultimately secured at a price of four hundred and ten thousand Qian Gold.
During the process, the Southern Desert Wang Family also attempted to bid but withdrew at three hundred and seventy thousand. Clearly, they also wished to conserve funds to acquire desired items.
With the Soul-Nurturing Pills taken, the next auction item was brought up.
The auctioneer continued with the introduction routinely: "Middle-Grade Magical Treasure ’Moon Chasing Spear,’ starting bid fifty thousand Qian Gold."
In a Guardian City Level auction, a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure is already considered a headline item, yet here, it only counts as an ordinary item.
For a Purple Mansion family, there are at least a dozen Celestial Human Realm cultivators in the family, if not dozens. The power of a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure is significantly greater than that of a Lower-Grade Magical Treasure, granting a considerable advantage during battles of the same rank.
Typically, the Celestial Pride of a Purple Mansion family would be equipped with a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure for protection, and some more formidable elders would also be equipped with Middle-Grade Magical Treasures to enhance combat effectiveness.
The item is excellent; if financial means allowed, Wang Shouzhe would have loved to capture it to enhance the family’s foundation. Unfortunately, today, he was destined to miss out on the Moon Chasing Spear.
After rounds of bidding and rivalry, the ’Moon Chasing Spear’ sold for seventy-seven thousand.
Compared to the fifty-nine thousand price Wang Shouzhe previously paid for the Middle-Grade Magical Treasure ’Purple Thunder Treasure Sword,’ this was significantly higher. It was evident that a Purple Mansion family’s foundation differs vastly from that of a Seventh-Grade Noble Family.
