Dragon Martial Sword Supreme

Chapter 362: Nothing More, Nothing Less



After purchasing the Purple Lightning Thunder Ape, a while passed before the final highlight items were brought out.

As the finale of the auction, each of these treasures was extremely precious, including Cultivation Techniques, Martial Techniques, Spiritual Artifacts, and elixirs.

However, Zhao Letian was not interested in those items, therefore he did not partake in the bidding.

"This final treasure can be called a true marvel. In the decades I've hosted auctions, I've never seen anything like it. Today, I am exceedingly honored to personally oversee the auction of this treasure."

Eventually, the Life Extension Pill was brought to the stage. The elder on the stage was flushed with excitement as he spoke fervently.

"Tsk tsk, what kind of treasure is this to make Elder Qian so thrilled?"

"Yes, it's really quite curious. Elder Qian is a veteran appraiser and a grandmaster at the Soaring Dragon Pavilion, having overseen auctions here for over a hundred years. What kind of treasure hasn't he seen before? Why is he so excited today?"

"It seems this treasure is extraordinary; it's surely going to provoke fierce competition."

Everyone's enthusiasm immediately soared, discussing among themselves with eyes full of anticipation.

"Alright, I shall not keep you in suspense any longer. This treasure is called the Life Extension Pill. Although it is only a Second Grade Elixir, its effect can extend a Martial Artist's lifespan by ten years!"

Seeing the atmosphere had been stirred up, the elder was very pleased and announced loudly, while holding up a blue pill in his hand.

"What? Life Extension Pill? It can increase a Martial Artist's lifespan by ten years?"

"Elixirs that can extend a Martial Artist's lifespan were thought to be lost to time. Such supreme items are reappearing today; am I hearing this right?"

"It is said that some time ago, in the Royal Capital of the Gray Wolf Kingdom, this kind of Life Extension Pill appeared and sold for an astronomical price. I wonder if this is the same kind of pill."

The crowd exclaimed in astonishment.

"Elder Qian, please tell us, what is the starting price for this pill?"

Some impatient individuals couldn't help but ask.

This kind of elixir that could lengthen one's life, no one would want to pass it up. Even if they couldn't use it immediately, they could keep it for future needs.

The audience, upon hearing this, looked towards the elder on the stage, full of anticipation and ready to place their bids.

"Cough, I apologize, I might disappoint many of you, but this pill cannot be bid on with Primordial Stones. According to the consignor's request, it can only be auctioned off in exchange for another type of elixir, the Demon Transformation Pill, and a minimum of ten Demon Transformation Pills at that."

The elder coughed, shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly.

Although he too would like to see how much this pill could fetch at auction, they could not go against the wishes of their client and could only conduct the auction as per Zhao Letian's request.

"Not bid with Primordial Stones? Damn!"

"Demon Transformation Pill? What kind of elixir is that?"

"Yeah, what is this Demon Transformation Pill? Where can it be purchased? If need be, I'll just go buy some and exchange for it."

The crowd was quite discontented as they spoke, with some still unwilling to give up.

"The Demon Transformation Pill is a Third Grade Elixir, also extremely precious and rare. Even our pavilion does not have this kind of elixir available at the moment."

The elder shook his head with a bitter smile.

If the Demon Transformation Pill was easy to purchase, they at the Soaring Dragon Pavilion would have acquired it elsewhere long ago and exchanged it with Zhao Letian.

"Hisss! A Third Grade Elixir?"

"They're crazy! To exchange one Second Grade Elixir for more than ten Third Grade Elixirs, isn't that too greedy?"

"There's no helping it, who's to say the Life Extension Pill isn't more rare? Especially for those experts whose lifespans are about to run out, its value is simply immeasurable."

The crowd gasped.

The audience present was mainly composed of Sect Martial Realm experts, and Third Grade Elixirs were meant for use by King-level Experts. Many of them couldn't afford such precious elixirs, let alone the rare Demon Transformation Pill, even among Third Grade Elixirs.

Thus, a peculiar scene occurred. When the most valuable item of the auction was presented, nobody spoke up, and for the first time, the venue fell silent.

From a private room on the second floor, Zhao Letian surveyed the whole audience and slightly furrowed his brows. It seemed that the Demon Transformation Pills were indeed hard to come by. He might have to return home disappointed today.

"Demons Transformation Pills are Third Grade Elixirs, ten of them, that's too many. Can it be less?"

After a moment of silence, an old man with white hair suddenly spoke from below.

"It's Master Yu, the Dan Pavilion Elder!"

"Master Yu is a Level Three Alchemist. His status is comparable to a King-level Expert. Who would have thought that he would come too?"

The crowd turned to look toward the source of the voice, with some well-informed people immediately recognizing the identity of the white-haired elder.

"Master Yu, the price is set by the employer, and we at Soaring Dragon Pavilion don't have the authority to decide."

The elder on the stage showed a troubled expression, shaking his head and smiling wryly.

Although Master Yu was also in the High-level Sect Martial Realm like him, his identity as a Level Three Alchemist gave him the ability to sit on an equal footing with King-level Experts and even wield more deterrence than some King-level Experts.

After all, there are not many who can refine Third Grade Elixirs. Many King-level Experts seek favors from Master Yu. If Master Yu were to call upon them, surely a considerable number of King-level Experts would be willing to serve him. His influence is very fearsome, and Soaring Dragon Pavilion dare not slight him.

"If you're not the decision-makers, then let the employer behind you talk directly with me."

Master Yu stated indifferently, his voice carrying an undertone of arrogance.

As a Level Three Alchemist, even in the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, he was a prominent figure. Given his status, he believed the employer behind the scenes would surely give him some respect.

"This doesn't seem to follow the rules, does it?"

The elder on the stage responded, smiling wryly and helplessly.

Soaring Dragon Pavilion has always maintained strict confidentiality regarding employer information and would never disclose it lightly.

"What's wrong with that? You go ask him. If he agrees, what rule would that be breaking?"

Master Yu frowned, saying impatiently.

"This… Alright, I'll go ask."

The elder on the stage, shaking his head helplessly and still smiling wryly, took out a Jade Scroll and sent out a message.

"Buzz!"

In a private room on the second floor, Zhao Letian's super VIP Token immediately vibrated.

"Distinguished guest, you have also heard Master Yu's words. Is it possible to take fewer Demon Transformation Pills?"

"No, it has to be ten Demon Transformation Pills, no less, only more."

Zhao Letian looked at the message sent through the token and replied without hesitation.

What did it matter if he was a Level Three Alchemist? Maybe others would give Master Yu face, but he certainly did not need to care.

After all, he was already a Level Two Alchemist himself. Given time, becoming a Level Three Alchemist was just a matter of course.

Thus, a Level Three Alchemist's reputation didn't carry weight with him.

"Master Yu, the employer has responded. It has to be ten Demon Transformation Pills, no less, only more. These are the employer's exact words."

The elder on the stage smiled helplessly and relayed Zhao Letian's message.
