Supreme Lord of Towers

Although Xu Jiao is the Peak Master of Piaomiao Peak, holding a high status,

Venerable Qingfeng's status is no lower than Xu Jiao's, and he is not afraid of offending her.

Moreover, it was Xu Jiao herself who wanted to spend so many Spirit Stones to bid for those hundred Peiyuan Pills; no one forced her.

So, even if she indeed got swindled, she must bear it herself, which has nothing to do with anyone else.

"Fine, very well. I, Xu Jiao, am not the kind of person who can't afford to lose. I accept it today." Xu Jiao laughed in rage.

In her heart, although she was extremely angry and had an impulse to go crazy,

naturally, she wouldn't show it randomly in front of the public; otherwise, she would just become a laughingstock for others.

Beings of her level care a lot about face, so even if truly deceived, she could only endure it forcibly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Peiyuan Pills that our Celestial Pill Pavilion is about to sell, although not Perfect Pills, are still very affordable, priced at about two to three billion Ordinary Spirit Stones each. Those in need can go to the Celestial Pill Pavilion's branch to purchase and pre-order them. Alright, I wish everyone a happy auction." Venerable Qingfeng said with a slight smile, then was enveloped by a dazzling glow,

disappearing from everyone's sight.

"Two to three billion Ordinary Spirit Stones for one Peiyuan Pill? That's way too cheap!"

"Haha, the Peak Master of Piaomiao Peak must be regretting it terribly now."

"Yes indeed! She really got a bad deal this time. Luckily, we didn't continue raising our bids earlier, or else we would have been the ones swindled." At this time, in the various golden VIP rooms, the big figures who previously bid for the Peiyuan Pills were all secretly laughing at Xu Jiao.

Although the hundred Peiyuan Pills Xu Jiao bought were all Perfect Pills, each one cost as much as twenty-one billion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

While other cultivators could buy a Peiyuan Pill with seventy to eighty percent quality for just two to three billion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

The gap between these two prices is just enormous.

So, Xu Jiao truly got swindled by the Celestial Pill Pavilion this time.

"Damn it! Damn it, indeed! I, Xu Jiao, have lived for so many years and have never suffered such a big loss. Venerable Qingfeng, mark my words, I am not someone you can just push around." Xu Jiao clenched her fists tightly, her face covered in thick frost, with rage burning in her eyes.

She spent nearly ten times the price to buy a hundred Peiyuan Pills.

Just thinking about it makes her heartache immensely.

If she had saved this wealth, it would be enough to purchase many precious cultivation resources.

So, it's really hard for her to swallow this.

"How could this happen? The Peiyuan Pill's formula has resurfaced, which means anyone can rapidly boost their cultivation just like me." At this time, Ye Lin'Er's face also turned extremely unpleasant, as if she had just swallowed a pile of dead flies.

She had originally thought that she was the only one in this world who could quickly boost her strength using Peiyuan Pills.

But who would have thought that Celestial Pill Pavilion had already obtained the formula for Peiyuan Pills and could continuously refine them?

This means her advantage has completely vanished.

She can rapidly boost her cultivation using Peiyuan Pills, and so can others.

This really made her feel uncomfortable inside.

"Grandmaster Ye Chen, I've already announced the price of Peiyuan Pills to the public. If one Peiyuan Pill sells for three billion Ordinary Spirit Stones, you'll get a profit of one billion Ordinary Spirit Stones. What do you think?" Venerable Qingfeng's figure emerged from the radiance in the Purple Gold VIP room, smiling at Ye Chen.

"Hmm! You at Celestial Pill Pavilion can handle the pricing arrangements." Ye Chen nodded, his eyes full of deep expectation.

As far as he knows, the cost of refining one Peiyuan Pill is about one billion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

If a single Peiyuan Pill could sell for two billion Ordinary Spirit Stones, Ye Chen would make a profit of fifty million Ordinary Spirit Stones.

If it could sell for three billion Ordinary Spirit Stones, Ye Chen's profit would be as much as one billion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

The profit from one Peiyuan Pill alone is already so amazing.

If Celestial Pill Pavilion could sell ten thousand Peiyuan Pills a month, the profit for Ye Chen would be between five trillion and ten trillion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

Such wealth is something many Profound Pill Realms couldn't earn even in their lifetime.

Even Venerable Golden Cores could not come up with it easily.

So, Ye Chen doesn't have to worry about Spirit Stone issues for a while.

"Alright, the auction continues. Next up is the second item in this auction, a top-grade magical artifact." At this moment, Fairy Lan Ling's voice, as melodious as a silver bell, rang out again in the ears of everyone, incomparably pleasant and pleasing.

Buzz!

Soon after, a Purple Gold Battleaxe, about two meters long, was transported to the auction stage above, appearing in everyone's eyes.

This Purple Gold Battleaxe is a top-grade magical artifact of extremely high quality.

Therefore, its starting price is as high as three hundred billion Ordinary Spirit Stones, about twice that of an ordinary top-grade magical artifact.

However, Ye Chen didn't show any interest in it at all.

He already has two top-grade magical artifacts on him, so he doesn't lack them.

Moreover, axes are not his weapon of expertise.

Not long after, this Purple Gold Battleaxe was taken by a big figure for four hundred fifty billion Ordinary Spirit Stones.

Time flies!

Soon, half an hour passed by.

In this half-hour, eleven items appeared above the auction stage, all exceedingly fine heavenly and earthly treasures or weapons.

However, Ye Chen has yet to encounter what he desires.

"I wonder when that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object will be out for auction." Ye Chen sat comfortably on a beast-skin chair, speaking with some impatience.

"I estimate it'll be the last item. After all, that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object is the main highlight of this auction, so it's normal to save it for last." Venerable Qingfeng couldn't help but explain to Ye Chen.

"Then, I guess I'll just have to wait a bit longer." Ye Chen said with a bitter smile.

He really wanted to see that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object soon, after all, the main purpose of coming to the auction this time was for that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object.

Buzz!

Just then, another item was transported above the auction stage.

It was a fist-sized flame, contained within a transparent crystal bottle, appearing somewhat dim and seemingly on the verge of extinguishing.

"Could this be... the Devouring Fire?" In Ye Chen's sea of consciousness, the Tower Spirit's Soul Body suddenly shuddered, eyes filled with intense disbelief.
