Trouble
"As expected of the Yao Clan, they immediately produced Grade 8 Pill with Eight-Colored Pill Lightning!"
Even Mo Tang couldn't help but sigh at all this.
Meanwhile, inside the spatial barrier where the three Yao Clan were located, the young man named Yao Tian was looking at the stage with a smile on his face, seemingly determined to obtain the Fragment Map.
"Right now, I'm lacking a Heavenly Flames. If I could obtain this third-ranked Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, my advancement to Ninth Grade Alchemist would be a sure thing!"
It is precisely for this reason that Yao Tian was willing to spend such a great price to compete for a Fragment Map.
Anyway, he refined all these pills himself. He could just refine more when he got back. At most, it would only take some effort and materials, which was nothing to the Yao Clan...
However, although his move intimidated many people, there were also those present who could rival them. So after a brief silence, bidding resumed from below.
"Three Eight-Colored Pill Lightning Grade 8 Pill..."
The calm voice shocked ninety percent of the people present, leaving them numb.
At this moment, there were quite a few people like Mo Tang who felt deeply that they were penniless...
This kind of scene, where high-level pills are treated so casually, is probably something you'll only see once in your lifetime.
Upon hearing the voice, Yao Tian merely frowned slightly, showing no sign of anger, and spoke again, "Five Eight-Colored Pill Lightning, Grade 8 Pill!"
Bidding continued to come from all sides, and the quantity of pills also kept increasing.
Mo Tang glanced at his Minimap and discovered that among the people currently vying for power, apart from a mysterious old man, the others were all from the Eight Ancient Clans.
When the price was driven up to eight Rank Eight-Colored Pill Lightning Grade 8 Pill, only two companies remained unwilling to give up...
Yao Tian of the Demon Clan, Huo Xuan of the Yan Clan!
Both of them were minor characters with some screen time in the original work...
Yao Tian is said to be the most outstanding young person in the Yao Clan. When the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame was born, his soul power had even reached the Late Heaven Tier...
In addition, he once consumed a precious pill that was almost able to become Ninth Grade Profound Pill, and his own strength has reached the Mid One-star Dou Sheng, making him one of the most brilliant people in the Yao Clan.
Furthermore, the original text also mentions that he once successfully refined Ninth Grade Treasure Pill, which clearly indicates that he obtained some kind of opportunity within his clan, allowing him to break through to the ranks of Ninth Grade Alchemist.
And all of this is very likely due to that Ninth-grade Pill elixir!
"It seems that at this time, the various clans have not yet fully given free rein to cultivate the younger generation of their own clans, and Yao Tian is not as powerful as he is in the original story."
Mo Tang thought to himself.
Similarly, at this time, Huo Xuan of the Yan Clan had not yet subdued the Eight Desolations Destruction Flame, which ranked sixth in the clan, and like Yao Tian, he had not yet fully taken off...
That's why the two of them were so interested in a mere fragment of the Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire, even going so far as to offer pills worth far more than the value of the Fragment Map for bidding!
Yao Tian glanced at Huo Xuan, who was hot on his heels in the distance. Although he couldn't confirm Huo Xuan's identity through the cloak, he didn't dare to recklessly use his soul power to investigate...
But with just a little reasoning, he was 90% certain he could identify the other person.
Gritting his teeth, Yao Tian's eyes turned cold.
"I am determined to obtain the Remnant Map of the Pure Lotus Demonic Fire!"
Having made up his mind, Yao Tian loudly proclaimed, "Two Grade 8 Nine-Colored Pill Lightning Grade 8 Pill!"
This was his final offer, and it represented his entire fortune...
These two pills containing the Nine-Colored Pill Lightning were not refined by him; they were left to him by his grandfather for life-saving purposes. But even so, he couldn't help but take them out at this moment.
Even if the person he was competing with was also from an ancient race, he would probably have no choice but to give up in this situation.
Just as Yao Tian had expected.
After he called out such an outrageous price, not a single voice was heard from the audience.
Seeing this, Yao Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, then flipped his hand and took out two pills, one blue and one purple, from his Storage Ring ...
The moment the pill appeared, an extremely rich fragrance filled the air. Then, before everyone's eyes, the blue pill flashed and transformed into a small blue fish, swimming continuously within the ball of light...
The purple one transformed into a two-winged flying tiger, which roared to the sky as soon as it appeared!
Looking at the two pills, Yao Tian felt a pang of heartache.
But when he thought of the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, he gritted his teeth, and a beam of light rose from his palm, enveloping the two Pill Beasts, and then flashed towards the Old Man Baoshan.
The Old Man Baoshan waved his hand and took the two orbs of light. He then carefully examined the two Pill Beast bound within them, feeling the terrifyingly pure energy within them, before nodding in approval.
"Very well, my friend, the transaction is complete. This Fragment Map is now yours..."
The Old Man Baoshan carefully put away the two Pill Beasts, then flicked his finger across the tattered Ancient Map Shop.
The Fragment Map transformed into a ray of light, flashing towards Yao Tian like lightning. He finally caught it and, after seeing the flaming lotus flower on the map, let out a long sigh of relief.
"It really is the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame... Although the price was a bit high, getting this clue is already worth it. Now we need to find the other Fragment Map..."
Although it was a bit like finding a needle in a haystack, Yao Tian was very confident. With the resources of the Yao Clan, he only needed to offer one Nine-Colored Pill Lightning as a reward, and countless people across the continent would come to help him search. So he wasn't worried at all about not being able to collect the Fragment Map.
However, this time, things were destined to disappoint him...
Mo Tang had already collected the remaining three fragments of the Fragment Map, and now he was just waiting for the last one in his hands!
However, seeing that the last fragment of the Fragment Map had actually fallen into the hands of the Yao Clan, Mo Tang couldn't help but frown.
"This is a bit troublesome... That expert from the Yao Clan is Four-star Dou Sheng. It's a bit unrealistic to think we can snatch this Fragment Map under his protection."
Fortunately, the Yao Clan's primary target is still the Tou She Ancient God Jade, which gives Mo Tang room to maneuver.
The next item up for auction was undoubtedly his own Tou She Ancient God Jade, so Mo Tang didn't pay much attention to the final auction. Instead, he started planning how to get what he wanted!
"Sister Phoenix, after the auction ends, you will take Kun Phoenix and Eagle Phoenix to intercept and kill the Scorpion Demon Trio. I will send an avatar with you..."
"The Scorpion Demon Trio? Are they the three peak Dou Zun who initially won the Heaven Tier Dou Technique Vajra Glazed Body?" Phoenix frowned slightly as she looked at Mo Tang, puzzled.
"Why bother attacking a mere three Dou Zun? Wouldn't that tarnish the name of Phoenix?"
Clearly, the proud Phoenix was unwilling to do something like bullying the weak.
