Chapter 205: Ingredients to Cleanse the Marrow, Auction House!

“Of course, the higher the class of mystic meridians, the higher the efficiency of the mystic qi. The same amount of mystic qi would be able to produce a higher ability to breakthrough.” Dongfang Niemie said, “But without anyone to protect you, it is impossible for you to even conduct the fourth stage of cleansing, let alone the fifth stage. With your current cultivation, the possibility of self-destruction during the fifth stage of cleansing is 100 percent.”

It was true, this was really the case.

Generally speaking, the world’s martial artists would only conduct the fourth stage of marrow and meridians cleansing after reaching the Martial Mystic class as it would have a higher success rate. Before reaching the Martial Mystic class, one would have the risk of self-destruction even with an expert’s protection. But the failure rate was huge, and once the cultivator failed in the cleansing, the mystic qi cultivation would decline. As for the exact number of decline in levels, it would be entirely up to luck.

Yang Dingtian was currently a five star Great Mystic Martial Master, and it was extremely risky to conduct the fourth stage of the cleansing, let alone the fifth stage of cleansing, which was what Dongfang Niemie said that it had 100% chance of self-destruction with 100% chance of failure.

“But master, I have a secret weapon.” Yang Dingtian laughed in his heart and said, “I have stolen the holy water from the Five Elements Hall secret realm. If I am to pour some of it into the marrow and meridians cleansing solution, it might have some miracle effects, right?”

Dongfang Niemie fell into a short span of silence! That’s right, Yang Dingtian had the holy water, which had the effects that could help a person rise from the dead.

“But, no one can guarantee the effects of the holy water during the cleansing.” Dongfang Niemie commented.

Yang Dingtian responded, “It is still worth the try, isn’t that so?”

Dongfang Niemie fell silent before replying, “Alright, we will test it. But, I only agree for you to conduct the fourth stage of cleansing. You must absolutely not try the fifth stage.”

“Yes, master.” Yang Dingtian said, “Now, can you tell me what kind of medicinal ingredients and crystals are needed for the fourth stage of the cleansing of the marrow and meridians?”

“Child.” Dongfang Niemie laughed and said, “For the fourth stage cleansing, you will need ten fourth-grade Fire Soul Crystals, fresh blood from a blazing fire attribute demonic beast, ten talks of Sky Killing Grass, and three taels of Demon Fire Stalactites.”

Yang Dingtian asked, “Master, can all these things be bought?”

“Of course.” Dongfang Niemie replied, “These items might not be cheap, but they aren’t rare items. They should be around 80,000 gold coins in total.”

“80,000 gold coins?” Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but exclaim.

Of course, this number might not be huge to Yang Dingtian, but to most of the martial artists in the world, it was truly a huge number.

If a wandering martial artist were to put in all his effort and desperately earn money, he would only be able to earn slightly more than 1,000 gold coins in a single year. This meant that, if they wanted to conduct a cleansing of the marrow and meridians, even if they didn’t eat or drink, they would still need 80 years before earning enough money. By that time, they would already be dead.

Thus, this world was truly cruel to the weaker dwellers.

Yang Dingtian never carried a lot of money with him, as having a huge sum of money was truly inconvenient. Most of the time, a large amount of money would be stored at the Heaven Dao Union’s silver bank. One would be able to redeem their money with the Heaven Dao Union’s unique crystal ticket. But after Yang Dingtian had arrived in this world half a year ago, he never had the chance to spend any money. Thus, he was only carrying around a few hundred gold coins just for everyday expenses.

If Yang Dingtian wanted to gather the 80,000 gold coins for the items, he would have to sell some of his things.

Ximen Ningning’s spatial ring had plenty of valuable items, and any single one of them would be priceless. Yang Dingtian had two mystic talismans that couldn’t be measured with money. But Yang Dingtian realized that there were only a few items that he could actually sell.

Ximen Ningning’s secret manuals must not be sold. There were also many unknown items inside that Yang Dingtian couldn’t see too.

After all the searching, Yang Dingtian noticed that the only things he could sell were the elixirs and the unusable blood black gold ore.

Among the elixirs, most of them were fifth or sixth-grade, and they were either Holy Spirit Elixirs or Mystic Assembly Elixirs.

There were 13 fifth-grade Holy Spirit Elixirs and 19 fifth-grade Mystic Assembly Elixirs.

There were five Holy spirit elixirs and eight Mystic Assembly Elixirs that were meant for consumption, and even though their grades weren’t low, their prices weren’t considered expensive. A fifth-grade elixir would be around 1,000 gold coins and a sixth-grade elixir would be around 2,000 gold coins.

Furthermore, Ying Dingtian might have a use for them in the future; therefore, it wasn’t necessary to sell all of it.

Of course, there were also a few seventh-grade and even eighth-grade Holy Spirit Elixirs and Mystic Assembly Elixirs, but Yang Dingtian might need them urgently in the future, and it was truly a waste to sell them.

After searching around, the most valuable item was still the sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir.

Beast Soul Elixirs were considered the most expensive among elixirs and also the rarest while being the most difficult to produce too.

Once a martial artist reached the Martial Mystic class, they would need to cultivate a martial soul. Almost everyone would choose to subdue a powerful demonic beast and refine it into their martial soul. At that time, they would need the Beast Soul Elixir.

A sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir would be able to subdue a sixth-grade demonic beast and then refine it into one’s own martial soul.

A sixth-grade demonic beast was equivalent to a human’s Martial Ancestor class expert. But after the refinement into a martial soul, its power would reduce. But even so, a sixth-grade martial soul was already a dream for most of the martial artists in this world.

Therefore, this sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir with Yang Dingtian could sell for a terrifying price. Furthermore, this Beast Soul Elixir was refined by Ningning, and she was a genius Beast Speaker and Medicine Refinement Master. Hence, this elixir still had a huge room for growth. After all, Ningning had been nurturing it for three years, and it was already in the sixth-grade.

Yang Dingtian didn’t need that blood black gold ore, and it was worth around 50,000 gold coins and was incomparable to the sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir’s price.

Ninety-nine blood black golds were enough to forge a soul sword, thus, every single blood black gold would be worth 50,000 gold coins. The price might seem cheap, but there were truly too little people cultivating soul swords in the world. Furthermore, every blood black gold would have to be personally excavated. Hence, this blood black gold that Yang Dingtian had could only be used to forge an ordinary blood black gold sword.

A single ore for 50,000 gold coins and a single blood black gold sword would need at least 20 pieces of ore. It meant to say that the most regular blood black gold sword would need at least one million gold coins, and the price was extremely stunning.

Yang Dingtian’s youngling sword would be worth at least 200 million gold coins just purely on the value of the blood black gold, without even counting in the subsidiary value. A single 10,000-year blood black gold was 100 times more expensive than a regular blood black gold, moreover, there was a price but no stock in the market. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian’s youngling sword had a powerful and mystical subsidiary value, thus, its value should be at least 1,000 or 10,000 times more.

Therefore, his youngling sword was totally priceless, and it wouldn’t be exaggerating to compare its value to the entire West Prefecture City. Of course, that was just a joke as Ah Chou, the youngling sword, was Yang Dingtian’s lifeblood, and he wouldn’t exchange it for anything. Furthermore, it had already recognized its owner, and it would be useless if it was handed to anyone else.

When mentioning his youngling sword, Yang Dingtian felt rather worried, as it was still in a deep sleep. After eating to a full the previous time, it had already slept for over half a month and had yet to awaken. Even though Yang Dingtian’s master, Dongfang Niemie, kept saying it was fine, Yang Dingtian still couldn’t help but feel anxious.

*********************************

Yang Dingtian arrived at West Prefecture City’s largest auction house.

It was a gigantic structure that was over 10,000 square meters. It contained the Heaven Dao Union’s silver bank, a consignment firm, an auction house, and a large retail store.

Elixirs, materials, crystals, ores, weapons, manuals, medication, poison, and many other things. Everything was sold in this place.

Moreover, it was absolutely safe to have transactions in this place. Apart from people like the Evil Dao’s Dugu Xiao, anyone who tried to cause trouble here would be the same as seeking death!

There would be no less than five Martial Supreme experts that oversaw this place, along with dozens of Martial Ancestor class experts.

What’s else, the people in charge of the auction house was a Master class expert from the Heaven Dao Union’s Northwest Branch.

Yang Dingtian arrived at the consignment area, which had a large hall over 1,000 square meters. There were over a hundred attendants and more than half of them were delicate and beautiful women.

Yang Dingtian had just walked in, and a lass with smiling eyes immediately walked over. She was wearing a skintight blue dress that revealed her curvaceous body.

“Hello, what can I help you with?”

“I am here to sell ore.” Yang Dingtian said.

“May I ask what kind of ore?” The female attendant questioned.

“A piece of blood black gold.” Yang Dingtian replied.

That female attendant’s beautiful eyes instantly lit up and bowed to Yang Dingtian. “Please wait for a moment. This is a large transaction, thus, I have to request for our Second Class Supervisor to deal with you.”

Immediately after, the female attendant guided Yang Dingtian to sit at the table and poured a cup of Xiang Ming Tea before looking for the Second Class Supervisor at the ore transaction floor.

While she was walking, she deliberately twitched her small waist vigorously, raising and protruding her buttocks, making it very captivating. It should be considered the benefits of doing a large transaction.

A short moment later, the Second Class Supervisor had arrived.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a long green robe. He looked at Yang Dingtian with eyes like thunder.

The current Yang Dingtian had a completely different face, one which was never used before. It was filled with unruliness and vicissitude. He looked around the age of 30 years old and completely like a loafer!

“May I know of this distinguished guest’s name?” The Second Class Supervisor asked.

“Shen Lang!” Yang Dingtian replied.

“Does mister Shen has a blood black gold ore to sell?” The Second Class Supervisor questioned.

“Yes.” Yang Dingtian retrieved the blood black gold ore from his baggage.

When thinking back, it was truly lucky. This ordinary blood black gold ore was excavated when Yang Dingtian first went to the Red Wilderness Trial. But he had found the 10,000-year blood black gold ores, therefore, he didn’t have a use for this ordinary blood black gold anymore.

That Second Class Supervisor’s eyes instantly lit up when he received the blood black gold. He weighed the ore in his hand before sniffing it deeply with his nose. He then reluctantly placed it down after a long moment later.

“This distinguished guest must find it funny. We might have all sorts of ores in this place, but it is hard for a person of my level to handle something like the blood black gold.” The Second Class Supervisor said, “How is this distinguished guest preparing to sell it? Are you going to put it with us for consignment or auctioning it? You can even sell it to us directly.”
