Chapter 1543 - Obtaining the Key
This time, an herbal garden island had emerged in the inner sea, left behind by a sect destroyed during the middle ancient ages due to the demon race’s invasion. This point alone was enough to drive people crazy for it.
An herbal garden island had surfaced in the inner sea, a wondrous remnant left behind by a sect wiped out during the middle ancient ages, roughly three hundred thousand years ago, thanks to a devastating demon invasion. Its legendary origin alone was enough to send everyone into a frenzy.
An island of immortal herbs, growing undisturbed for three entire millennia. Who could resist the prospect? Even a single herb could raise one’s cultivation in leaps and bounds, its medicinal effects unimaginable.
Alas, a formation guarded the herbal garden that even Immortal Kings couldn’t break through. They could only feast their eyes on the tantalizing mountain of treasure, unable to claim even a nugget. Torture, plain and simple.
That’s why, when the Sunny Day Chamber of Commerce announced they had keys to the herbal garden, the whole of Chaotic Demon Sea turned upside down.
“We will auction off our ten keys one at a time. The starting price for each is a hundred thousand immortal stones!” Fairy Yao said calmly.
Suddenly, the crowd became depressed.
At that price, only the true bigwigs in the room could dream of competing; it was out of reach for the common cultivator.
Honestly, though, that price could be considered cheap if you managed a single windfall from inside the garden. The return on investment could be astronomical!
And didn’t legends say someone once blundered into the herb garden, barely scratching the perimeter, and came out with a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Nascent Grass? That was just the outer area. Who knew what riches awaited in the depths?
As soon as Fairy Yao finished speaking, Chen Fan jumped right in.
“Hundred and five thousand!”
