While boosting one's divine consciousness is beneficial, it's somewhat questionable when it's not completely without side effects. The price had already exceeded the value of a normal Essence Spirit. Moreover, the Blue Fox Auctioneer did not specify which plant had transformed into this Essence Spirit, implying two possibilities: either the Ancestral Court didn't know what plant it was, or the plant that had transformed wasn't powerful. Either case would decrease its value.
For instance, if the Blue Fox Auctioneer had explicitly stated that this was a transformation from a top-tier Spirit Monster bloodline, then its value would be different.
"One thousand five hundred Elemental Coins, for the third time, congratulations to Guest No. 336."
Having secured the item, Tang San immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his face revealing joy. It seemed his luck was really booming, and it was the first auction item that was highly beneficial to him. This truly was excellent news.
