He spoke slowly, “Although your existence, in the words of some local powers in The Great River District, is not a secret. Most of these powers abide by rules. However, among the rogue cultivators participating in this auction, some will not respect the rules.”

“Exposing your name and cultivation level prematurely will inevitably attract some troubles.”

This made sense.

“Moreover, if we want to sell the Jade Marrow Pill at a better price, we need the reputation of a heavyweight pill refiner. Dan Chenzi, I think, sounds pretty good.”

Luo Chen opened his mouth, speechless.

Turns out, Mi Shuhua is using the same strategy he had used!

Previously, he had sold Allure Pills under the reputation of Ascendant Master Yun He from Hehuan Sect.

Now Ml Shuhua has made up a Grandmaster Pill Refiner named Dan Chenzi, who seems very prestigious, but the purpose is to sell the Jade Marrow Pill. ’ His gaze fell on the auction floor, indeed, some people began to inquire about the effects of the Jade Marrow Pill.

After learning that the Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pill only works for early to middle-stage cultivators, many lost interest.

However, several Foundation Establishment families remained keenly interested.

They each bought a bottle or two, planning to test its effects when they returned.

Luo Chen realized that Mi Shuhua had held back the previously refined Jade Marrow Pills, not selling them until the auction.

His objective was not to sell at a high price, but to build a reputation. Unsurprisingly, these Foundation Establishment cultivators are all smart!” He had never considered this before.

It wasn’t that he wasn’t smart, it’s just that his cultivation level wasn’t high enough to gain exposure to higher-level considerations.

Putting a pill like the Jade Marrow Pill, which has average effects, into the auction, Mi Shuhua must have come to certain agreements with the cultivators from the Yu Ding Sword Sect.

Thinking about it this way, Luo Chen suddenly linked the earlier incident with the magic item.

The fact that Mi Shuhua knew about the additional uses of the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel in advance might have been leaked by a Yu Ding Sword Cultivator.

Thinking deeper…

“The Jade Marrow Pill isn’t selling well?”

“That’s because the giants like Spirit Medicine Hall and Medicine King Sect are keeping an eye on it.”

“What if the Broken Mountain Gang uses the reputation of the Yu Ding Sword Sect?”

“Perhaps the connection isn’t too deep, only a couple of Foundation Establishment Yu Ding Sword Cultivators are involved, but that’s already enough.”

“In this case, some of the profits from the Jade Marrow Pill must go to a certain Yu Ding Sword Cultivator as well.”

Countless thoughts sprouted like bamboo shoots after the rain.

Luo Chen’s thoughts became clearer.

Unbeknownst to him, the elixir he had refined already attracted the attention of many Foundation Establishment Cultivators!

Thinking this way, he felt somewhat glad that he had joined the Broken Mountain Gang early on.

At least, he had a relative degree of freedom.

While he was deep in thought, the third round of the auction had already ended.

The fourth round of bidding by sect cultivators was gradually approaching. During this round, Wang Yuan and others around him also began to bid. Luo Chen saw with his own eyes that Wang Yuan spent two thousand spirit stones to purchase an elixir.

According to Luo Tianhong, that elixir is extremely beneficial for body refinement.

“This round is provided by Wanbao Pavilion.”contemporary romance

I believe there’s no need to introduce the fame of Wanbao Pavilion!” “There are a total of ten items for auction, two of which are large-sized storage bags, each with a capacity of ten square meters, the starting bid is ten thousand spirit stones each…”

A large-sized storage bag with a ten cubic meter capacity!

Luo Chen’s eyes lit up.

But with a transaction price of just twenty thousand spirit stones, he became confused.

Aren t storage bags all priced at ten thousand spirit stones in Wanbao Pavilion? Why is a large storage bag sold so cheap?”

With a slight smile, Mi Shuhua said, “That’s just the selling price, and it’s for the rogue cultivators. The actual value of a storage bag, how can it be that high?”

“Hmm?”

“A storage bag is indeed valuable, but only for ordinary lower-order rogue cultivators. In fact, for sect cultivators, storage bags are all purchased in bulk, and the individual price does not exceed a thousand spirit stones at all.” Looking at the puzzled Luo Chen, Mi Shuhua explained, “If you get a second-hand storage bag and sell it, no one will offer a high price. Even in Wanbao Pavilion, they don’t recycle it.”

Luo Chen frowned, “Then why do they still mark such a high price?”

“The high price is, of course, to make sure that lower-order rogue cultivators can’t afford it.”

Luo Chen was even more puzzled. Shouldn’t a product be reasonably priced?

With a sigh, Mi Shuhua pointed out, “Lower order cultivators possess less. They probably own just one or two magic tools, a few talismans. These things are easy to carry. The only thing that makes people greedy is the spirit stones they earn. But spirit stones come in different sizes, more than two hundred pieces, and it’s very inconvenient to carry.”

“No one would leave their spirit stones at home when they go out, waiting for someone to come and steal.”

“So, in this situation where they can’t afford storage bags, what would they do?”

Luo Chen hesitated for a moment and then answered, “Use spirit stones to purchase elixirs, magic tools, talismans, and other resources to enhance themselves. Or trade for medium-grade spirit stones that are easy to carry?” “Let’s not talk about the latter, just the former. Who will those rogue cultivators buy these cultivation resources from? The marketplace? The black market? Or the sect shop?”

Luo Chen is no fool.

He quickly understood, especially since Mi Shuhua had hinted so strongly.

For those inconvenient-to-carry spirit stones, to avoid being stolen, lower-order rogue cultivators would inevitably want to convert them into their own strength.

And when buying those cultivation resources, their spirit stones are gathered back into the hands of the great sects.

Seeing Luo Chen’s sudden realization, Mi Shuhua sighed, “The price tag of ten thousand spirit stones is actually very reasonable. Early and middle-stage cultivators can’t afford it, late-stage cultivators can protect their possessions, and if they store them for a little longer, they can afford it. As for Foundation Establishment Cultivators like me, buying this thing isn’t a hardship, and if you have internal channels, it’s even cheaper.”

Damn, cheat dealers!

Whether it’s Wanbao Pavilion or the sect that produces storage bags, they’re all proper cheat dealers!

Luo Chen cursed inwardly.

Then his gaze was drawn to a lot consigned by a cheat dealer.

Four Symbols Tripod, ascendant-grade magic tool!”

“This tripod has extraordinary uses. Not only can it be used as an offense magic tool, it also has some defensive capabilities. Moreover, it can be used for pill refinement!”

“The tripod is made by golden core ascendant master Elder Hu Yan Zhuo of Tian Fan City. It was originally intended to be a magic item, but the inscription of the array was incompatible, so the final product is ascendant grade.” “Friends interested can join the auction.”

“Starting price, three thousand spirit stones!”

Accompanying Luo Tianhong’s detailing of the origin, uses, and grades of this tripod, there was a flutter of voices at the scene.

But soon, it all quieted down.

While this tripod does have many wonderful uses, in plain terms, it’s a Jack of all trades, master of none.

For Qi Refinement Stage cultivators who prioritize distinct capabilities, they don’t like it.

As for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, only top-grade magic tools and magic items would pique their interest.

But in the eighth booth, Luo Chen’s eyes shone.

“This item, it should belong to me!”

After saying this, he eagerly looked towards Mi Shuhua.

“Leader, isn’t there an empty pill room in the Pill Hall?”

“If I had this tripod, I could refine more pills for the gang every month, earn more spirit stones, and allow our brothers to eat well and stay warm in the cold winter.”

“Leader, this tripod is not expensive, and there are few bidders. We must not miss it.”

Opportunities are not to be missed, and time never comes again…… ”

Mi Shuhua’s face twitched, hell, this tone of voice was all too familiar!
