Chapter 180 The Third Fragment
The clear sound of the bell slowly echoed in the auction hall.
As the bell rang, the noisy noise in the venue gradually subsided, and everyone's eyes were cast towards the crystal auction platform, with fiery gazes.
On the crystal platform, a white-haired old man in gorgeous clothes was squinting his eyes and scanning the dark crowd in the field.
"The Black Seal City Auction has officially begun!" Hearing the announcement from the old man in Chinese clothes, the little medical fairy's pretty face turned red, and she raised her jade hand and pinched Xiao Se's waist hard.
"Oh, Little Medical Fairy, you want to murder your husband." Xiao Se said with some pain, touching his waist which was pinched red.
"Hmph, you deserve it. Who told you to do bad things?" The little medical fairy glanced at him with her beautiful eyes, straightened her slightly messy collar, and spat softly.
"Ahem." Xiao Se coughed lightly, turned his gaze to the crystal platform in the center of the auction hall, and changed the subject: "The auction has already started. Take a look at what you like and we can buy it directly."
A sly look appeared in Little Medical Fairy's beautiful eyes, the blush on her pretty face gradually faded, and she smiled lightly: "Just prepare to bleed heavily!"
While the two were talking, the old man in fancy clothes had already taken a silver plate from a maid. On the silver plate, there was an exquisite jade box. The old man in fancy clothes placed the jade box on the crystal counter and gently opened it. Inside was a light green pill.
If you look closely, you can see three patterns embedded on the pill, one blue, one pink, and one purple.
As soon as this pill appeared, it instantly attracted a lot of attention.
"I didn't expect that the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill would be the first to be auctioned." Looking at the green pill that had been repackaged on the crystal platform, Xiao Se smiled and murmured in a low voice.
"Haha, I believe many people here are familiar with this medicine pill. This medicine pill is called the 'Qingling Pill', and it is the highest grade three-patterned Qingling Pill. It can not only help a Fighting Master break through to the Grand Fighting Master level, but also those who have been lingering at the peak of the Grand Fighting Master level for a long time will have a great chance to break through the Fighting Spirit barrier. If you are lucky, you may be able to soar to two or three stars." The old man in gorgeous clothes pointed to the medicine pill in the jade box and said with a smile.
As soon as the old man in fancy clothes spoke, the atmosphere became heated as expected. Many people looked at the pale green pill in the jade box.
Unlike the Miter Auction House, this is the Black Horn Region, a place where people eat each other. Fighting masters have almost no place to stand here, and they are not even qualified to enter the auction house. Only the great fighting masters can barely survive. Among them, many practitioners have been hovering at the peak of the great fighting masters for many years. Therefore, they are crazy about this elixir that can break through the fighting spirit.
"Okay, I believe everyone is aware of its side effects. Without further ado, the starting price is seven hundred thousand, and each price increase must not be less than ten thousand." A cunning flashed across the eyes of the old man in gorgeous clothes. He did not elaborate on the backlash effects of the Three-Pattern Qingling Pill. He waved his hand and announced the reserve price.
As soon as the words fell, someone in the field shouted out the price, "Seven hundred and one thousand."
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Eight hundred thousand!"
"I'll give you 1.2 million."
There were many people interested in the Three-Striped Green Spirit Pill, and soon someone raised the price to a terrifying height. And it continued, with the shouting of prices coming one after another.
"You are a bunch of poor guys. I will offer you 1.5 million." Just when the price remained at 1.3 million, a slightly cold and evil voice finally sounded from one of the private rooms.
Unlike Xiao Se and Little Medical Fairy, the owner of this cold voice did not cover himself with a curtain but revealed his identity in front of everyone.
This was a young man with an evil look, his face was frighteningly pale, just like the vampire in the Blue Star movie in Xiao Se's previous life, giving people a gloomy and weird feeling. At this moment, the young man was holding two maids with revealing clothes and extremely hot bodies. The maids' moon-shaped parts were kneaded hard by him, and some were twisted and deformed. They showed pain one by one, but they dared not say a word, for fear of angering the owner of the cold voice.
Xiao Se's attention was also attracted by the evil young man. A hint of curiosity flashed across his eyes. From the aura of the other party, Xiao Se sensed that he was a great fighting master, but his fighting spirit had a very superficial feeling as if it was not cultivated by himself, but as if he took some shortcut.
"Don't look." Seeing Xiao Se's gaze turn to the evil young man opposite, the Little Medical Fairy mistakenly thought that Xiao Se was looking at the scantily clad maid, and her pretty face flushed as she blocked Xiao Se's sight.
Xiao Se held Little Medical Fairy's hand, knowing that the other party had misunderstood, and immediately explained: "With a beautiful young wife like you by my side, would I go to see those rouge and powder?"
"Then what are you looking at?" Little Medical Fairy asked with some confusion.
"It's no big deal. I just feel that the martial arts practiced by the playboy opposite seems a bit weird, and his fighting spirit is very superficial." Xiao Se said with a smile.
At this moment, someone in the field recognized the identity of the evil young man, "It's Fan Ling, the young master of the Blood Sect."
Upon hearing that it was the young master of the Blood Sect, some of the bidders who were eager to try immediately shut their mouths. The Blood Sect was not someone to be trifled with. In terms of power, it was even more terrifying than the Eight Gates, the owners of the Black Seal City auction house. Its master was top-ranked in the Black Horn Region and a genuine Douhuang powerhouse.
"The idiot who was killed by Xiao Yan in the original novel?" Xiao Se had a sarcastic smile on his face and said nothing more. If the other party took a picture of something that interested him, he would have to rob him. After all, this guy often sucked the blood of others to improve his cultivation, so he deserved to die.
With the identity of the young master of the Blood Sect, no one dared to interfere. It was not that everyone was afraid of him, but it was not worth it to make enemies with the Blood Sect just for a three-patterned Qingling Pill.
After the Three-Pattern Green Spirit Pill was auctioned off, the following auctions seemed a bit dull. All of them were Xuan-level fighting skills or weapons inlaid with magic cores, none of which interested Xiao Se. The incomplete map of the Pure Lotus Demon Fire that he had been looking forward to for a long time had not yet been put on the auction table.
"The seventh auction item is an ancient fragmentary scroll. The starting price is one hundred thousand gold coins." On the crystal table, an old man in gorgeous clothes was holding a crystal jade box. Inside the box was a palm-sized fragmentary scroll. The fragmentary scroll had been eroded by the years and had become very old as if it would turn into powder if touched.
As the old man in fancy clothes finished speaking, the venue fell into a brief silence, and no one was interested in this fragment of the painting. This fragment of the painting was not the first time it appeared on the auction table.
If it was a complete ancient map, perhaps someone would study it, but there is no point in buying such a tattered piece of map.
But just because others are not interested doesn't mean Xiao Se is not interested.
"It finally appeared." Looking at the incomplete map in the old man's hand, Xiao Se's pupils suddenly shrank. With his powerful soul power at the level of a sixth-grade alchemist, he naturally felt the subtle soul power hidden in it. Moreover, the appearance of this incomplete map was similar to the two he had obtained before, and it was one of the four incomplete maps.
