Chapter 25: Life Is Really Unpredictable

Sikong Xuan and Tan Gusong’s surprised voices sounded almost at the same time.

However, they didn’t look at each other because of the tacit understanding. Their eyes were almost locked on the pill in Lu Ming’s palm.

This was the Foundation Establishment pill!

‘What did the Foundation Establishment pill with a completion rate of 100% represent?

You could break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm after eating it, no matter what your aptitude was!

How could they be so certain that the marrow cleansing pill would be the finale item?

After all, there were very few people with excellent aptitude.

There wasn’t a cultivator who didn’t want to improve his aptitude for cultivation.

The same was true for the Foundation Establishment pill.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, not only would one’s strength increase, but their lifespan would also increase by 200 years!

How many cultivators were stuck at the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm and couldn’t break through?

That was 200 years’ worth of wasted lifespan.

They would definitely buy it with a large sum of money!

At the same time, even cultivators who had already broken through would prepare Foundation Establishment pills for their clan’s descendants.

Moreover, this was a pill that could 100% guarantee that one could reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. No cultivator could refuse it.

What was even more ridiculous was, there were 10 pills in all.

Young Master Gu actually brought 10 pills!

Sikong Xuan felt that the world was truly unpredictable.

Fifteen minutes ago, he had been at a loss to the point of despair.

Fifteen minutes later, he had actually obtained three Rank 1 pills with the highest completion rate!

“Young Master Gu!”

“My respect for you is truly like the surging Yellow River. It’s unstoppable.”

“This is my Green Mountain City’s star-picking pavilion’s supreme customer token. Please keep it well.”

“When you come to the star-picking pavilion in the future, no matter if you want to sell, trade or participate in the auction, I will arrange everything for you, 30% off.”
After Sikong Xuan handed over the token, he shakily took the porcelain bottle with the ten Foundation Establishment pills in it. His face was filled with an expression that said that he had no regrets in this life.
Today was like a roller coaster of emotions and he had fully experienced life’s ups and downs. They were enough for him to reminisce about for the rest of his life.
After that, Sikong Xuan didn’t wait for Tan Gusong to open his mouth and directly put away the two types of pills.

He also put away the marrow cleansing pills on the table and carefully put them into the storage ring between his fingers.

Under Tan Gusong’s regretful gaze, Sikong Xuan said to him, “Alchemist Tan, don’t wait anymore.”

“There are still four hours before the auction. Quickly release the news that our finale items are these three types of pills!”

“This is our only chance to make a comeback. We must seize it!”

Hearing this, Tan Gusong could only go and make arrangements. After all, his status was the lowest in the room.

“alright!”

Tan Gusong turned around and left the fourth floor of the auction house to spread the news.

‘At the same time, seeing that the matter of the pills had been settled, Lu Ming began to ask about the talisman and spiritual tools that he wanted to buy.
“pavilion Master Sikong, I didn’t come to the star-picking pavilion just to sell the pills.”

“At the same time, my master did not want to delay his cultivation while refining the pills, so he sent me out for training. Therefore, I wanted to see if you have any suitable spiritual tools or talismans.”
“After all, there are heretics in Great Xia and the surrounding states, and some things are too precious. It would be too wasteful to use them on the low-level heretics.”
Lu Ming’s words were also very clear. After making it known that he had a powerful backer, no one should try to cheat him or harbour ulterior motives towards him.
He intended to buy talismans and spiritual tools because he did not want to waste the high-level protective trump cards that his master had given him.
“Young Master Gu, I really have to thank you for giving me a chance to help you.”

“Wait a moment, I will get the catalogue for today’s auction. At the same time, I will make a list for you.”

“Please drink your tea and wait for a moment.”

After Sikong Xuan heard this, he naturally did not hesitate to take action.

If he could tie in with Gu Zecang, wouldn’t this be an opportunity to befriend the Grand Master of alchemy behind him?

After leaving his room, he set off quickly but did not leave immediately. He dragged his fat body into a room with a restriction at the door.

He immediately forced out a drop of blood and tapped it on the door.

After the door was opened, he walked in and entered a secret compartment.

He took out the pavilion master’s jade token and inserted it into the groove in the secret compartment.

Two formation eyes appeared in front of him.

Without hesitation, Sikong Xuan activated another layer of the hidden formation of the star-picking pavilion!

At the same time, he summoned the elders of his clan who were hiding in Green Mountain City.

He wouldn’t allow any accidents to happen in tonight’s auction.

After doing all this, Sikong Xuan let out a long sigh of relief. He walked out of the hall while wiping the sweat off his forehead.

He went to get the catalogue that Lu Ming needed.

At the same time.
The Center Sect.
The Pill Peak.

The tall and handsome Gu Zecang arrived at the No. 1 Pill Hall on his sword..
