At the old woman's prompting, many in the crowd came to their senses.
"It really is a supreme-grade Treasure Crystal!"
"Of course! Only a supreme-grade Treasure Crystal would need True Essence to activate it."
"Look at the light of this Treasure Crystal. It holds ten colors, and each color splits again. This is... Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal!"
One of the Rough Stone Masters in the crowd cried out, his breathing quickening.
Several other Rough Stone Masters instantly recognized the Treasure Crystal in Qu Changxian's hand. "It matches the descriptions in the Ancient Books exactly. This is Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal!"
"According to the Ancient Books, Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal has only appeared three times. This is the fourth!"
"My heavens! The Treasure Crystal Qin Hao picked wasn't a disastrous loss at all. Its value has soared! A supreme-grade Treasure Crystal—its worth is impossible to measure..."
An uproar!
The entire Hidden Dragon Hall went wild.
Everyone stared at the raised platform in a frenzy. Some could not hide the greed and envy on their faces.
They looked ready to rush forward and seize the Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal!
At the front of the crowd, Zuo Hong and Zuo Yichuan looked dazed. Their emotions had risen and plunged like a roller coaster until they could barely take it.
"Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal?" Zuo Hong exchanged a glance with his son, then murmured, "A Hundred-Refined Mystic Crystal whose value can't be measured? Yichuan, could this Treasure Crystal be worth five hundred million?"
"Father, you just said its value can't be measured. I'd think... it should be!" Zuo Yichuan said, caught between laughter and tears.
"Patriarch of the Zuo Family, if its value can't be measured, it's priceless! Supreme-grade Treasure Crystals are usually materials for refining spirit artifacts, but what single spirit artifact would need this much?"
