Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1808: Chapter 1808: Auction

The auctioneer was quite impressive. ”Originally, we only had three keynote auction items. But later, we acquired some treasures.”

The attendees were quite excited. Even though they knew they couldn’t afford it, it was still great to see such treasures. Moreover, they could let those high-ups fight for it; they were just there for the spectacle.

Qi Wen was also quite excited. ”I reckon the first auction item should be my Pregnancy God Pill.”

She was absolutely right; the first item was the Pregnancy God Pill, with a starting bid of ten thousand Immortal Crystals.

This time, there were two auctioneers working together. ”If they were in modern times, they would surely be gold medal salespeople.”

Su Yuanyuan was amused by her daughter’s comments. What kind of description was that?

The bidding was lively, with prices rising dramatically.

Mu Jin was also among those bidding. Although she had heard the news about the Pregnancy God Pill, she didn’t know there were two pills, nor that the one now wasn’t as good as the next.

So, she was determined to win it. No matter how many Immortal Crystals it cost, securing it was a must because nothing was more important than life.

The bidding had reached a fever pitch. Mu Jin was holding back, waiting to make her move at the end, but her heart was bleeding.

She regretted getting into a conflict with that female cultivator. Otherwise, she could have approached them for alchemy. She heard the Li Family acquired the elixir, but even asking for it with Immortal Crystals didn’t work.

She had also bought two Pregnancy God Pills at the Treasure Pavilion, though she still felt uneasy about it.

No matter what, she had to acquire at least one pill. She had accumulated so many good things; Immortal Crystals weren’t a problem, and she could always get more in the future.

”Wow, they’re already bidding sixty thousand Immortal Crystals for just one Pregnancy God Pill.”

Finally, when the auctioneer wanted to confirm, Mu Jin increased the bid by another ten thousand Immortal Crystals, rejoining the bidding frenzy. The final price was sixty-eight thousand Immortal Crystals.

”Even if I give them seventy thousand Immortal Crystals, I’ve made quite a bit. I’ll consider alchemy in the future.”

”Aunt, will you support me in the future?” Xiao Rue said with a chuckle.

”Sure, no problem, I’ll definitely support you.”

After the auction, Mu Jin looked at the Pregnancy God Pill. She wasn’t familiar with alchemy, but she knew this pill was far superior to the one she’d consumed before, the quality was evident.

Next up was a meteorite, which clearly didn’t sell for the price of an elixir, and with a significant difference at that. The third auction item was a fruit.

”Everyone, feast your eyes. This is a Life-extending Fruit, capable of increasing one’s lifespan by a thousand years.”

No matter how well it was advertised, perhaps not many needed it. In the end, it was bought by a guest in a Heavenly room.

Mu Jin gritted her teeth; a thousand-year Life-extending Fruit was sold for less than thirty thousand Immortal Crystals, which frustrated her immensely.

However, it was manageable. She still had several of them on hand. When she participated in auctions in other realms, she could exchange them for Immortal Crystals.

The fourth auction item turned out to be an Immortal Beast.

”This Immortal Cat belongs to our Immortal Emperor. The Immortal Emperor is somewhat indifferent towards it now but wants to find it a good home.”

With the Immortal Emperor involved, there naturally wouldn’t be a shortage of bidders, as giving face by raising the Immortal Pet of an Immortal Emperor was considered an honor.

”Qi Wen, aren’t you interested in these?” Chen Xue Man asked.

”Sister-in-law, do you like it?”

Chen Xue Mei nodded, ”It looks quite adorable.”

”Bid for it,” Qi Yan said.

Chen Xue Man shook her head. ”Although it’s cute, who has the time to raise an Immortal Pet?”

Outside was bustling, though it didn’t reach the price of a Pregnancy God Pill.

The auction paused, not continuing.

The cultivators below were quite anxious. Certainly, the last items would be grand treasures.

”Everyone, don’t be impatient, there’s surely more to come.”

Despite the assurance, some still felt anxious.

”Is there a problem? Is something wrong with Treasure Pavilion?”

Discussions arose among the crowd.

Su Yuanyuan believed there was no issue, thinking it was just a way to build anticipation. After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the final auction item appeared.

”Sorry for keeping everyone waiting. This treasure was previously sought by some Great Powers, who wanted to keep it. But, since it is an auction item, it absolutely cannot be taken like that.

Now let me introduce the last auction item of this event, a Top-grade Pregnancy God Pill, and it even possesses Elixir Rhythm.”

The crowd went wild, ”Top-grade? Elixir Rhythm?” These were terms nobody had heard before.

”Rest assured. It’s certified by our Treasure Pavilion and quality is guaranteed.

The starting bid is twenty thousand Immortal Crystals, with a minimum increment of one thousand each time.”

Mu Jin’s face twisted; she truly regretted it. She hadn’t heard there were two Pregnancy God Pills, a Top-grade one!

Fewer people participated in the bidding this time, but some still did. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the bid reached fifty thousand Immortal Crystals.

Treasure Pavilion doesn’t charge a service fee, should we join the bidding? Xiao Rue asked excitedly.

Qi Hong shook his head, ”There’s no need.”

The pill was finally sold for eighty thousand Immortal Crystals. The quality was somewhat better than Qi Wen’s Pregnancy God Pill, and the price was higher too.

After the auction ended, the group didn’t rush out, waiting to hand over Immortal Crystals.

When Lun Yao Elder entered, Dan Yang immediately stood up, ”Greetings, Elder.”

Qi Hong followed suit with his respects.

”Such high alchemical talent is our Medicine Sect’s pride.”

Dan Yang smiled and cupped his hands, not knowing quite what to say.

Qi Wen directly stowed away her two Storage Bags. She didn’t have much feeling towards Lun Yao, just someone who was neither significant nor important.

The others remained silent, Lun Yao noticing the female cultivator’s actions. ”Dan Yang. The Pavilion Master of Treasure Pavilion wishes to invite you to join.”

Dan Yang shook his head, ”Elder, we honestly have no intention of joining any organizations, unless we establish Xuantian Sect in the future.”

”In Treasure Pavilion, the treatment is quite generous and has benefits for your cultivation progress. Besides, there are numerous Immortal Plants for your alchemical endeavors.

It’s like honing a skill; think carefully. If combat prowess is lacking, one must have strong backing to secure a foothold in the Immortal World.

You all have capabilities to live very comfortably.”

Dan Yang still shook his head. ”Thank you, Elder, but my heart isn’t set on that.”

Dan Yang wasn’t foolish, why live under someone else’s protection? Their group was just right. Furthermore, it wouldn’t affect his alchemical pursuits, instead enhancing his skills.

Qi Hong definitely wouldn’t stay behind; he planned to follow his disciple.

Lun Yao didn’t expect such a direct refusal. ”Alright then, if you need anything in the future, go to Treasure Pavilion, and you’ll certainly be taken care of.”

Lun Yao felt a bit disappointed having seen the Top-grade Pregnancy God Pill; he certainly didn’t have that skill, not even for the previous top-grade.

Once Lun Yao was sent off, the group left, having a month before heading to the Western Immortal Emperor Realm via spaceship.

”Mother, shall we head to Meteorite Valley?” Qi Hong asked.

Su Yuanyuan had no objections, Tan Shaoting went to cancel the accommodations, and the group set off.
