Chapter 99: Auction Begins, Second-Level Alchemy Furnace
"Ancient pill formula, new pill formula?"
After listening to what Sun Ming said.
Although Cao Rui was quite confident in his knowledge of spiritual medicine.
However, Cao Rui still made up his mind to try to take pictures of new pill formulas.
In the past few years, Cao Rui has completed all the 0-level pills in the warehouse of the Alchemy Institute.
From the experience beads, he has gained rich basic spiritual medicine experience and believes that he is not inferior to any alchemist.
But if the ancient pill formula cannot be updated successfully, it will be a big trouble.
Cao Rui does not want to gamble.
Unless there is really no other way, Cao Rui does not want to go in vain, then he can only buy the ancient pill formula and try it back.
"Thank you, Director Sun, for your guidance." Cao Rui bowed his hands to express his gratitude.
Sun Ming waved his hand: "Although this is the second time we meet, Master Chen, we feel like old friends. How about we call each other Taoist friends in the future?"
In the world of immortal cultivation, the title of Taoist friends is very magical.
Among immortal cultivators, when they meet for the first time, they often call each other Taoist friends, which is a courtesy.
But after getting to know each other well and developing feelings, they began to call each other Daoist friends again, and Daoist friends at this time meant people of the same path.
Although Sun Ming was a businessman among the immortal cultivators, Cao Rui also felt that he was worthy of close friendship.
It may also be that Sun Ming always gave Cao Rui the feeling of his former good friend Chen Fugui. ,
The two have very similar personalities.
"In that case, thank you Daoist Sun!"
Sun Ming laughed: "Haha, Daoist Chen is too polite."
"There are still three days before the auction, Daoist Chen, why don't you stay in my Danlingbao Pavilion guest room for three days to rest."
"After three days, the auction will start, Daoist Chen will directly participate in the auction."
Cao Rui thought about it, did not refuse, and nodded in agreement.
So, Sun Ming sent a maid with a superior appearance and figure to take Cao Rui to stay in the guest room of Danlingbao Pavilion.
Cao Rui was thinking about the recipe of the elixir at the auction, and for the time being, he didn't care about it, just pretending not to see Sun Ming's hint.
The recipe of the pill was related to Cao Rui's promotion to the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Stage.
Cao Rui had no choice but to take it to heart.
The maid naturally left disappointed.
For her, any elixir given by the Immortal Master could benefit her greatly.
For three days, Cao Rui stayed in the guest room without going out.
During this period, Cao Rui glanced at the beast-taming bag and found that Hei Yu seemed to be advancing.
He communicated with Hei Yu in the beast-taming bag, but received no response.
It was understandable that Cao Rui had fed Hei Yu countless Huanglong pills during this period.
Being able to follow Cao Rui, the alchemist, Hei Yu had no shortage of elixir.
In this way, it was not surprising that Hei Yu started to advance.
The advancement of a first-level demon beast to a second-level demon beast was equivalent to the advancement of the human race from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, so it could not be sloppy.
After thinking about it, Cao Rui took out a thousand spirit stones and a hundred Huanglong pills and placed them in the wings of Hei Yu in the beast-taming bag.
In this way, if it had a need, it would naturally take it by itself.
"I wish you all the best."
The promotion of a spirit beast depends entirely on its own ability, and Cao Rui can only provide some help to the best of his ability.
Three days passed in a flash.
This day.
The first day of the Chinese New Year in the secular world.
The auction jointly launched by Qingling Xiuxian Market and Danling Baoge finally officially opened.
This year, Cao Rui has unknowingly entered the age of 26.
At the age of 26, Cao Rui's cultivation speed is not much slower than many single spiritual roots.
Most people in the spirit beast sect believe that Cao Rui, the head of the Alchemy Academy, has a very strong spiritual root talent.
Only Cao Rui himself knows how poor his spiritual root talent is. He can achieve today's achievements only because of his hard work and hard practice.
On this day, Cao Rui left the bedroom early and went to the auction venue.
The auction venue was set up in a square not far from Danling Baoge.
A high platform was built in the square as a viewing platform for the host and auction items.
The row opposite is the seats for the auction participants.
The second floor has an independent VIP box.
After Cao Rui showed his VIP token, he was taken to VIP Room No. 16 by the maid.
Although VIP Room No. 16 is not the VIP room in the center, it is high above and has a good view.
The room is equipped with free spiritual tea, spiritual fruit, and servants who help report price tags, which is very convenient.
This is provided by Sun Ming for free, and Cao Rui is satisfied.
As the auction time approaches.
The auction venue has gradually filled up.
As the host, Sun Ming has started to warm up the auction table.
The VIP room is separated from the noise in the venue, but Sun Ming's voice is recorded alone, so it seems very quiet.
Soon, the time came to eight o'clock.
Sun Ming knocked the small bell in front of him. The small bell should be a magic weapon. It is not large in size, but the sound it knocks out is very crisp and can be heard throughout the auction venue.
Cao Rui in the VIP room can also hear it clearly.
The first auction item is the highlight, a second-level alchemy furnace!
This furnace has a simple shape and is made of rare cloud-patterned black iron. The surface flows with a faint cloud-patterned luster, as if it contains the mysterious way between heaven and earth.
Sun Ming began to introduce the second-level alchemy furnace beside him.
"This alchemy furnace, named "Cloud Pattern Black Fire Furnace", is a second-level alchemy furnace. Its furnace body is engraved with complex runes and formations. These runes can automatically operate when refining pills, helping to improve the quality and success rate of pills."
The "Cloud Pattern Mysterious Fire Furnace" contains spiritual fire, the flame is light blue, and the temperature is adjustable. Its unique spiritual fire also has the ability to purify impurities and enhance the efficacy of medicine, making the elixir produced more pure and efficient..."
In the VIP room, Cao Rui looked at this alchemy furnace from the dual perspectives of a weapon refiner and an alchemist.
From the perspective of an alchemist, the effect of this alchemy furnace is very good, improving the success rate and quality, but its function is so powerful that it may take the mana of the foundation-building period to smoothly control it and bring out the full effect of this alchemy furnace.
From the perspective of a weapon refiner.
Cao Rui clearly saw that there were traces of failed formation engraving on one side of this alchemy furnace.
This is not a perfect second-level alchemy furnace.
However, the engraving of the second-level formation is very difficult, and engraving failure is a common thing. This can only be regarded as a small mistake.
The worst The price of a first-level magic tool is also above 300 spirit stones, and the price of a second-level magic tool is above 3,000 spirit stones. The alchemy furnace is definitely an expensive item among the second-level magic tools.
Sun Ming reported the starting price of the ‘Cloud Pattern Mysterious Fire Furnace’: 3,000 spirit stones!
Such a low starting price naturally caused the monks present to bid frantically.
Although Cao Rui was tempted, he knew that he came here for the recipe today.
Therefore, he suppressed the impulse in his heart and did not bid.
After dozens of rounds of bidding, this second-level magic tool alchemy furnace was finally bought at a high price by a bidder in the VIP room.
Cao Rui guessed that the bidder was probably also an alchemist, and possibly an alchemist in the foundation-building stage.
After the guests bid on the items, the auction staff will directly deliver the items to the guests in the VIP room, and pay the money and hand over the goods.
On the auction table, Sun Ming began to introduce the next item.
