The Struggle Between the Medicine Clan and the Alchemy Clan

At this moment, Shao Shao's voice rang out again. "I won't keep you in suspense any longer. This pill is called the Marrow-Washing Pill. As the name suggests, the Marrow-Washing Pill can increase the success rate of breaking through to the Marrow Cleansing Stage."

"After repeated testing, we found that the Marrow-Washing Pill guarantees a 100% success rate for breakthroughs when taken by geniuses with aptitude above the fifth grade."

"You heard right, the Marrow-Washing Pill guarantees a 100% success rate for geniuses with aptitude above the fifth grade. No deception."

"Just so you know, there's only one bottle of this pill, with five pills in total. If you want to bid on it, don't hesitate, or you'll miss out."

Upon hearing this, the group of Gu cultivators who hadn't taken the Marrow-Washing Pill seriously immediately widened their eyes, their faces showing surprise.

Soon, the entire audience erupted in an uproar, followed by a heated discussion.

They had never heard of Realm-Breaking Pill with a 100% success rate before; it was completely unheard of and shattered their worldview.

The success rate of most Realm-Breaking Pill on the market is only 10%, so the sudden appearance of a Realm-Breaking Pill with a 100% success rate is simply terrifying. The speed of technological advancement is too exaggerated, leaving everyone with expressions of disbelief.

If it weren't for the Integrity Gu a type of magical artifact) binding the Qian Clan family merchants, there would certainly be a chorus of doubts below right now.

In private room number one, the group of Gu cultivators from the Medicine Clan stared wide-eyed, their mouths agape. As a major alchemy clan, they knew all too well just how outrageous and unbelievable a pill with a 100% success rate in breaking through realms truly was.

This is almost a counterintuitive thing, something that is simply impossible to achieve. Before this, they wouldn't believe anything you said.

Finally, Yao Jingtian, the number one genius of the Medicine Clan clan, slammed his fist on the table, his eyes burning with fervor, and shouted with great excitement, "At all costs, at all costs, we must obtain this pill! This pill is simply a miracle in the Medicine Realm; it is of immense research value!"

"Once we crack the secret of why this pill has a 100% success rate, all of our clan's Pill Formula can learn from it, and all Pill Formula may undergo a qualitative leap as a result."

"At that time, the old Pill Formula may have to be drastically changed, and perhaps our clan will trigger a revolution in the Medicine Realm."

Yao Jingtian stood up, his face flushed, and he was extremely excited.

The other Medicine Clan geniuses in the room also had red eyes, clenched their fists, and looked extremely fanatical.

At the same time, the group of Gu cultivators from the Alchemy Clan in the adjacent private room number two also went crazy, all staring excitedly at the pill bottle in the auctioneer's hand.

The Alchemy Clan's number one genius, Dan Chenzi, revealed an utterly frenzied expression. He slammed his hand on the table and stood up, exclaiming with overwhelming emotion, "A 100% breakthrough rate! It's actually a 100% breakthrough rate! How did the person who refined this pill manage to do it? This is simply a miracle!"

"Who on earth is this genius who could create such an amazing Pill Formula! It's so incredible, I want to kneel down before him."

"This pill is truly invaluable. If I can acquire it and uncover the secrets of its Pill Formula, my alchemy skills will experience a qualitative leap—no, the overall skills of all Alchemist in my clan will undergo a qualitative leap."

"Our Dan Clan is a renowned alchemy clan on par with the Yao Clan. However, if we truly master the secret to enhancing the efficacy of elixirs and integrate it into our clan's other Pill Formula, then the elixirs our clan produces will completely surpass those produced by the Medicine Clan."

"At that time, our clan will dominate most of the elixir market in the Western Land, and our clan will become the number one alchemy clan in the Western Land, instead of being on par with the Yao Clan."

"Therefore, we must obtain this pill at all costs, no matter how many Spirit Stone it costs!"

Dan Chenzi clenched his fists, revealing an extremely ambitious look in his eyes.

The other Alchemy Clan Gu cultivators in the room also looked at the Marrow-Washing Pill in the auctioneer's hand with burning eyes, their breathing rapid.

"How many Spirit Stone does 'at all costs' refer to? Could it include one hundred million Spirit Stone?"

Suddenly, a member of the Alchemy Clan, a Gu cultivator, asked a question hesitantly in the room.

Dan Chenzi immediately turned to look at the man, his face contorted with rage, and shouted, "Remember! We're not buying pills! We're buying technology!"

"This kind of pill is worth at most a few million."

"But the technology that can make the Realm-Breaking Pill have a 100% success rate is priceless. Even if it costs a billion, we'll acquire it!"

"If this technology can guarantee a 100% success rate for Realm-Breaking Pill Marrow Cleansing Stage, then it might also guarantee a 100% success rate for Realm-Breaking Pill the Spiritual Sea Stage? Do you still think spending 100 million Spirit Stone is a waste?"

The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this, everyone looking shocked and taken aback by his audacious assumption.

Just then, an excited shout came from the next room, "The Medicine Clan offers five million Spirit Stone!"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Dan Chenzi's expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly shouted down, "My Alchemy Clan offers six million Spirit Stone!"

Hearing the familiar voice from next door, Yao Jingtian's face darkened, and he hurriedly shouted at the top of his lungs, "I'll offer ten million Spirit Stone!"

Dan Chenzi's expression changed drastically. "Damn it! That Yao Jingtian actually asked for such an outrageous price. He probably wants to buy the pill to unlock its secrets. We absolutely cannot let him succeed. If the Medicine Clan succeeds in unlocking the secrets of this pill, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Everyone, quickly bring out all your Spirit Stone and pool them together! With this Medicine Clan interfering, the price of this pill is likely to skyrocket!"

"My Alchemy Clan offers twenty million Spirit Stone!" Dan Chenzi shouted to those below.

Seeing that Dan Chenzi had doubled the price, Yao Jingtian clenched his fist and slammed it heavily on the table.

"Damn it! Why is this Alchemy Clan everywhere? How dare he ruin my plans!"

"The Alchemy Clan are all wealthy; with them driving up the price, this pill will likely fetch a higher price than the final auction item. The final price will definitely exceed 100 million."

Yao Jingtian's face was ashen. He suddenly turned to a member of the Medicine Clan's Gu cultivation and ordered, "There's no other way. Go back and inform the Lineage immediately. Tell Lineage to raise money as quickly as possible. It's extremely urgent!"

"This pill is unlikely to be acquired without a price tag of over 100 million!"

"My Medicine Clan offers thirty million Spirit Stone!" Yao Jingtian shouted again to those below, not to be outdone.

In the blink of an eye, the price of the Marrow-Washing Pill had already soared to an astronomical 30 million Spirit Stone, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

This is only the first item up for auction! Is this some kind of extravagance?

Although the 100% breakthrough rate of this Marrow-Washing Pill is a bit outrageous, it's still a low-grade pill and shouldn't be worth that many Spirit Stone, right?

Asking for a sky-high price of 30 million is far beyond what it's worth; the price is ridiculously inflated.

Have these two companies gone mad?

Countless onlookers were stunned and completely dumbfounded.

The auctioneer Shao Shao also stunned, losing all composure and watching the scene with a fascinating expression.

She hadn't expected the Marrow-Washing Pill to be so valuable, considering it was a low-grade pill that hadn't fetched such a high price at Marrow-Washing Pill in the Far Western Lands.

The very first item up for auction instantly fetched a price of tens of millions, catching her completely off guard and leaving her incredulous.

Even Qian Jinjin probably didn't expect the Marrow-Washing Pill to sell for such a high price this time.

Otherwise, this item should have been the grand finale, rather than the first item used as a prelude to attract more bidders.

Just as everyone in the auction house was completely bewildered, before they knew it, the price had already been bid up to 100 million by these two madmen.

At this moment, Long Xuan in room number five was also dumbfounded, his mouth slowly opening wide. Good heavens, it's gone in an instant, over a hundred million! Is this Marrow-Washing Pill really that valuable?

"Good heavens! Qian Jinjin, that shrewd businesswoman! She bought my Marrow-Washing Pill at such a low price, and then resold it for a profit of over 100 million! She's such a shrewd businesswoman! She's practically bullying me! "Long Xuan thought, his heart filled with resentment.

While he was still in a daze, the price of the Marrow-Washing Pill continued to rise by hundreds of millions, and before long it had reached a sky-high price of one billion, causing an uproar throughout the audience.

Everyone stood up from their seats, their expressions filled with disbelief, staring in stunned silence at the scene.

This is absolutely outrageous! A mere low-grade pill, and some madman is willing to pay a staggering 1 billion to buy it? He's insane!

Can you believe that the first item at an auction sold for more than the final item? Has such an unbelievable thing ever happened in history?

Dan Chenzi wiped the sweat from his forehead, his fingers trembling uncontrollably, his pupils wide as he stared down below.

A price of one billion is simply too high. Although the technology behind this pill is worth that price, the prerequisite is that you can successfully crack it.

However, deciphering the Pill Formula for an elixir is no easy feat.

If purchasing a single elixir could unlock its Pill Formula, then all Pill Formula Pill Formula would be open secret, leaving no hidden secrets. What difference would there be between unique and universally Pill Formula Pill Formula?

His idea was only theoretically possible, but theory and reality are two completely different things.

The technology to crack this elixir is extremely difficult, with a success rate that is incredibly low. Buying this elixir would most likely be a waste of money.

Therefore, the Marrow-Washing Pill is far from worth such a high price; the sky-high price of one billion is far too inflated.

However, the Medicine Clan and the Alchemy Clan are in the same industry, both dealing in elixirs, so they are competitors and also adversaries.

Both companies were afraid that the other would discover the secret of the Marrow-Washing Pill and thus gain access to more advanced alchemy techniques, which would deal a devastating blow to their respective pill markets. That's why they had no choice but to bite the bullet and raise the price.

Otherwise, the Marrow-Washing Pill would never fetch such a high price at any auction.

A mere first-grade elixir sold for a staggering one billion—who would believe it? It's utterly outrageous.

At this moment, Dan Chenzi was in a dilemma. If he continued to raise the price, it would be too high. If he failed to unlock the secret of the Marrow-Washing Pill, he would suffer a huge loss.

However, if the price increase is stopped and the Medicine Clan buys back the Marrow-Washing Pill Marrow-Washing Pill, and they manage to crack its secret, the threat to the Alchemy Clan would be far too great.

Therefore, he hesitated and was extremely conflicted.

This involves ten billion Spirit Stone belonging to the Lineage. How should he choose? What should he decide? He's under immense psychological pressure right now.

Just as he was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to continue bidding, a loud shout suddenly rang out from the sky, "Enough!"

"The price is already outrageous enough. If we don't stop, it will only keep going up indefinitely. How about we split this bottle of Marrow-Washing Pill equally, with each of our two clans contributing 500 million Spirit Stone?"

"Otherwise, whoever from either of our clans manages to obtain this bottle of Marrow-Washing Pill today will suffer severe injuries and become a laughingstock."

At that moment, another deafening laugh echoed from the sky, "Hahaha... That's exactly what I was thinking too. Raising the price so high for our two races will only benefit others. In the end, no one will benefit; it's simply not worth it."

"Then let's each contribute 500 million and split it equally. However, there are five Marrow-Washing Pill in this bottle. After splitting them equally, there will be one left over. How should we divide it?"

"Simple, how about deciding who gets the last Marrow-Washing Pill through a tournament?"

"No, no!" The voice was startled and hurriedly said, "The Long Family and Bai Clan ruined a bunch of geniuses in the arena, it's terrifying! Learn from their mistakes! It's simply not worth it."

"Fighting in the arena is too unpleasant. How about we split this last Marrow-Washing Pill in half and each of our two clans take half?"

"Anyway, our two clans only obtain the pills for research, so even half of them are usable."

"Alright, it's your way. We'll split the fifth Marrow Marrow-Washing Pill in half."

The sounds in the sky finally disappeared, and Dan Chenzi finally breathed a sigh of relief, slumping into his seat. In that instant, he felt as if he had lost all his strength.
