With seven seventh-grade pills, the Creation Pill was now in Xiao Yan's possession. At the same time, everyone understood that the man in the private room had offended the people of the Pill Tower.
Slowly leaning back in his chair, Xiao Yan's face was calm and composed. Since he had already made a move, he wasn't afraid of offending the other party. Besides, this was an auction house, and everyone had to rely on their own abilities to acquire the items. If people had to back down because of someone's status, then the auction would naturally lose its original meaning.
"Even the people from the Pill Tower have to suffer a setback at your hands. Such a demeanor truly befits Brother Xiao."
Beside him, Ouyang Miao clapped his hands and let out a light laugh with a hint of teasing. The former shook his head noncommittally, not paying any attention.
Although the old man was from the Pill Tower, there was no reason for him to back down. If the other party didn't know when to advance or retreat, he would just become another enemy.
An Nan silently observed the two people beside him, a faint light flickering in the depths of his eyes, his thoughts racing.
Offstage, after this minor incident, the auction naturally continued. Soon, the brief lull caused by the presence of the Creation Pill was quickly submerged in the intense and lively atmosphere that followed.
As time went on, the atmosphere in the auction hall grew increasingly heated. By this point, the auction items were attracting the attention of powerful figures in the front-row boxes. Countless Spirit Stone stones, pills, and high-level Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills were all being auctioned off, with some items fetching astronomical prices. Many of the auctioneers in the stands gradually shifted from bidding to becoming mere spectators.
Even so, when everyone saw the captivating treasures that Xiao Kuo brought out on the auction stage, their emotions couldn't help but intensify. Although the auction process was almost entirely outside their reach, being able to witness the powerful forces in the front row arguing over the treasures was a fortunate event in itself. Thus, their trip was not in vain.
Since the auction of the Creation Pill, Xiao Yan had rarely made a move, occasionally bidding only for rare medicinal herbs. However, the Pill Tower member who appeared along the way almost completely plundered all of Xiao Yan's treasures. Of course, given Xiao Yan's temperament, he couldn't help but provoke him several times. After several rounds, both he and the Pill Tower member suffered considerable losses, but overall, Xiao Yan still had a slight advantage.
Of course, in the end, the ultimate winner is the auction house itself.
As one dazzling item after another was brought out on the auction stage, even Xiao Yan, with his composure, couldn't help but be amazed by the abundance of the auction. So many high-level items, enough to cause a stir in the outside world, were all present at one auction. At this moment, even he had to admire the Xiao Clan's resources.
In the following auctions, Xiao Yan made some gains, but it was difficult to find anything as tempting as the Creation Pill. Fortunately, so far, his trip to Shuyang City had not only allowed him to meet Ouyang Miao and obtain the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques from him, but also, more gratifyingly, he found the Sumeru Grass and the Creation Pill. Although it cost a lot of Spirit Stone, compared to that, the current result could be considered a complete success.
With the Sumeru Grass in hand, once he returns to the Xiao Clan, he will be able to prepare to refine the Ancestor Transformation Pill. Once the pill is completed, Xiao Xuan's cultivation will break through, and all sorts of troubles will naturally be resolved. In addition, with the Eight Emperor Seal Techniques, this will undoubtedly become one of his major trump cards at the clan assembly!
As for the Creation Pill, everything is uncertain at this point. Whether one can use this incomplete pill to comprehend its medicinal principles and refine it into a true Creation Pill remains unknown. At the same time, what intrigues him is that Bai Hua also seems interested in this Creation Pill...
As time passed, the auction gradually came to an end, and the value of the auction items became increasingly astonishing. Most of them were some of the most important items in this auction, which made Xiao Yan quite excited. Unfortunately, after several rounds of bidding, the remaining funds in his hands could no longer sustain the auction.
"Clang!"
Until a certain moment, Xiao Kuo on the auction stage One Hammer Settles the Sound sound like the tolling of a bell, startling Xiao Yan from his surging emotions. Looking up, he saw that another round of auctions had come to an end, and the sky-high price of millions of Spirit Stone on the stage was astonishing. At this moment, those who could afford such a huge sum of money were probably only the powerful figures in the VIP boxes in the front row.
Thinking this to himself, Xiao Yan's gaze followed Xiao Kuo's, and he frowned as he realized that the person who made the bid was none other than Zhao Jin and his party, who were standing opposite them.
Upon realizing this, Xiao Yan immediately curled his lip. He had no good feelings towards the Zhao Clan family, so he naturally didn't bother to pay them any more attention.
On the auction stage, after successfully selling his item, Xiao Kuo 'Elder Zhang smile deepened. He chuckled as he swept his gaze over everyone present, his cloudy eyes holding a profound depth. After a slight pause, when everyone's eyes turned to him again, the old man raised his hands and clapped them gently.
Immediately, several beams of light suddenly appeared outside the auction stage. Then, several figures dressed in golden robes appeared outside the golden array. After appearing, these people immediately raised their hands, flicked their fingers, and light flashed from their fingertips. They released a series of mysterious and obscure seals. As far as the audience could see, the array on the field solidified rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Looking at the increasingly thick energy shield in the auction hall, Xiao Yan couldn't help but secretly weigh the situation. Judging from the current situation, with the support of those array masters, the shield's defensive power had reached an extremely terrifying level. Even with his current strength, he might not be able to break through it even if he went all out!
Such a move is truly terrifying!
Seeing the cautious and tense atmosphere on the scene, the people in the auction hall gradually quieted down. An unsettling atmosphere gradually enveloped the room, making everyone present feel a little oppressed.
The people present were not fools when they saw the unusual scene on the auction stage. They immediately understood that the item to be auctioned was probably the most anticipated item of the entire auction: the scroll of Intent Class Dou Technique.
Looking at the situation on the field, Xiao Yan slowly let out a breath.
"The grand finale is finally here!"
