There was a look of greed that suddenly appeared in Elder Chen's eyes.
He was very tempted to steal this pill right now, but then he stopped himself since he knew that he was in front of the entire upper stratum of Green Wood City right now. If he were to do something like this, there would be no way he would be able to remain in Green Wood City.
Elder Chen suppressed the greed that he felt and a determination filled him. He had to get this pill and study its composition, it would be of great help to him and the Alchemy Master in improving their alchemy skills!
Elder Chen finally stopped looking over the pill and acting as calm as he could, he said, "It is indeed a pill with 100% purity, this is a rare item that even I would want to get my hands on." At this, he swept his eyes over the crowd and there was a slight chill in his eyes.
The meaning in his words were clear, but there were still quite a few people who didn't back down from this. There were plenty of royals here, they didn't need to fear Elder Chen.
There were also royal factions that had come from other cities, so they wouldn't fear Elder Chen since his influence didn't spread to their cities.
Elder Chen moved back into his VIP room and during this time, he kept sending out messages to his people to get him as much liquid funds as possible. Since he had set his eyes on this pill, he would definitely win it!
He also sent a message to the Alchemy Master because he was sure that the Alchemy Master would also be interested in this.
Once Elder Chen had moved away, Hong Mei finished up the introduction, "This item was given to us today by Master Fan Lin as a last minute submission. As you all know, this is an Enlightenment Pill, but it is one with 100% purity, which means that its effects are increased by several times compared to normal. If a normal person were to use this, it would instantly turn them into a genius. If a genius were to use this, they would become a monster!"
The eyes of many family heads lit up once they heard this.
All of them had younger generations in their family and they knew that the growth of these younger generations would determine the fate of their family.
If the juniors of a family were trash, their family would eventually collapse.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut if the juniors of a family were geniuses, their family would prosper and even have a chance to increase their rank.
But there were also a few whispers that hit the nail on the head.
"Fan Lin, could it be that rumoured Lin Fan that could make 100% purity pet food? The name is similar enough, right?"
"Do you really think that someone who could make 100% purity pet food would be this dumb? This isn't even considered changing your name, he's just reversing it! How could that be considered a disguise?"
What they didn't know was that Lin Fan had felt quite confident in this...
Hong Mei looked around and she could tell that the crowd was riled up enough, so she didn't keep them waiting any longer.
Hong Mei put the pill back into the pill bottle before turning back to the crowd, "Now, since this item is the finale of our auction tonight and with how rare it is, it definitely won't have a low price. For this 100% purity pill, the first bid will be five hundred thousand crystals. Let us start the bid!"
Even though it was already a price that was higher than the ending bid of the last pill, there was no lack of people who made bids.
This was a pill that could change the future of their entire family, who wouldn't be willing to be their family fortune on it?
The bids continued to come in until the price was pushed to six hundred thousand, but the bid didn't stop there.
But during this bidding, there was one bid that dominated all the other bids, it was a bid that really was going all in.
"Seven hundred thousand crystals!"
The price was only at six hundred thousand when someone had suddenly increased it by a hundred thousand.
Everyone turned in the direction of this voice and they found that it was Elder Chen's VIP room. It seemed like he was determined to get this pill.
However, there were still people who weren't willing to give up.
This single pill could bring life back to a dying family and there were such families in this hall right now. Moreover, what did Elder Chen of the Alchemy Tower count for when there was this genius alchemist? For some of them, that name didn't mean anything in their cities.
So after Elder Chen made his bid, there were people who didn't give up as they increased the bid to seven hundred and ten thousand crystals.
But Elder Chen wasn't done yet, he had received a message from the Alchemy Master and he was determined to get this pill!
Elder Chen didn't even hesitate as he pressed the button on his chair and shouted, "Eight hundred thousand!"
There was no pause, he had jumped it up to the next hundred thousand.
Most of the people gave up after seeing this, but there were still a few who stubbornly believed they could compete.
"Eight hundred and ten thousand!"
Once again, Elder Chen didn't hesitate at all as he pressed the button and shouted, "Nine hundred thousand!"
Almost everyone had given up at this moment, but there was still one person who didn't.
This was the head of a royal family, but his family had degraded to the point where he was the only Platinum Realm Expert left in his family. If they couldn't generate any new blood, they would be picked clean by the other families.
Gritting his teeth, that head shouted, "Nine hundred and fifty thousand crystals!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat was his bottom line, that was every single bit of asset that his family held. As long as it could be exchanged for an expert who could protect them for the next five hundred years, it would be worth it since they could generate that amount again.
But what he didn't know was that Elder Chen was being backed by the entire Alchemy Tower, this family head could never compete in terms of assets.
Once again without any hesitation, Elder Chen said, "One million!"
Everyone took a cold breath at this, this was a record being set right in front of them.
They had never heard of anything being sold for a million crystals before at the Treasure House, this would definitely break the record. Moreover, it was a million crystals for a single pill!
Hong Mei had a wide smile on her face as she watched that family head, hoping that he would continue pushing the price up, but she was disappointed in the end as he hung his head in defeat.
Since the match was settled, she didn't hesitate at all to make the call to end it.
"One million going thrice! Sold to VIP room 4!"
Once he had won this item, Elder Chen came out once again to step onto the stage. He took the microphone from Hong Mei and said, "Our Alchemy Tower is honoured to win this pill. We also wish to invite this Master Fan Lin to come to our Alchemy Tower. I will personally guarantee that as long as Master Fan Lin comes to our Alchemy Tower, he will become the eleventh elder immediately!"
It was too bad that when Hong Mei took back the microphone, she had to say, "Thank you Elder Chen for your inspiring words. However, Master Fan Lin also has a few words to say."
Elder Chen was surprised as he asked, "Oh, what does Master Fan Lin have to say?"
Hong Mei knew that what she was going to say wasn't good for her, but she had no choice since this was an order from her boss, "Master Fan Lin has stated that this pill was crafted by him with the help of Elder Hua of the Alchemy Tower. He has also stated that he was delighted with working with Elder Hua this time and he will definitely find her to cooperate in the future."
Elder Chen's face turned very ugly at this.
He had put himself out to ask this Fan Lin to come work for him, but before he could even meet that Fan Lin, he had been slapped in the face.
Fan Lin had just announced to the world that he was working with Elder Hua's faction while he was here looking like a clown trying to invite Fan Lin to his faction.
Was there anything that was more embarrassing than this?
Elder Chen really wanted to find a hole to bury himself in!
