I can gather experience beads

As Sun Ming announced that the ancient elixir recipe was won by VIP No. 16.

Soon, the auction staff brought Gu Dan Fang to VIP Room No. 16.

"Dear distinguished guest, please pay the auction price and you can take the ancient pill recipe."

"Because you are a customer in the VIP room, you don't have to pay a deposit, so there is no deposit deduction. You need to pay the full 5,000 spirit stones."

Cao Rui nodded slightly and patted his storage bag. A mountain of spirit stones half a person's height appeared on the table.

For cultivators, counting is not a problem. With just a glance, they can quickly count the number of spirit stones in the hill-like pile in front of them.

After paying the spirit stones, Cao Rui successfully got the ancient elixir recipe in his hands.

The auction staff then took their leave and left the VIP room.

Now that he had the most important recipe for the elixir, Cao Rui's interest in the auction suddenly dropped by 90%.

Cao Rui couldn't wait to open the ancient elixir recipe and read it.

The main purpose is to confirm the difficulty of this ancient pill recipe.

Cao Rui looked up and saw that many of the medicinal materials on the ancient pill recipes had indeed become extinct or extremely rare.

However, as Cao Rui looked at the pill formula again, the rich knowledge of spiritual medicine in his mind began to match simultaneously.

All kinds of spiritual medicines that could replace the original ones naturally came to Cao Rui's mind.

Some alternative remedies may require experimentation to determine.

Some of them might even require trying some elixirs that Cao Rui had never come into contact with but had only heard of.

But after a moment, Cao Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, while the experience beads improve the level of the elixir, they also force-feed me with relevant spiritual medicine knowledge."

"I am about 70% to 80% sure that I can restore a new pill recipe based on this ancient recipe."

The probability is 70% to 80%.

Cao Rui felt that even if this pill was handed over to an alchemist in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he might not be as confident as Cao Rui was that he could restore the new pill formula.

After Cao Rui was about to finish the auction, he went to Danlingbao Pavilion to find Sun Ming to purchase relevant spiritual medicines in order to confirm the feasibility of the new pill formula.

Given that there are so many kinds of spiritual medicines in the Xiuxian Market.

Cao Rui might have to live in Qingling Xiuxian Market for a while until he could experiment with a new pill formula.

The auction at the auction is still going on.

The items started to go on sale one by one.

Although it is an auction with the theme of elixirs, there will also be items such as magical instruments, talismans, and even spiritual beast cubs and eggs.

Cao Rui watched with great interest, considering it as an opportunity to broaden his horizons.

The VIP in VIP Room No. 3 is indeed very powerful.

Then he made three moves respectively.

More than 50,000 spirit stones were spent.

"Hmm? What is this?"

In the final stage of the auction, most of the items that appeared were small items. At this time, a pill recipe appeared in the auction.

It’s just a residual recipe, and a residual ancient recipe at that.

The reason why it attracted Cao Rui's attention.

This was because Cao Rui discovered that this incomplete ancient pill recipe was extremely similar to the incomplete recipe in his storage bag.

This incomplete recipe was found by Cao Rui while panning for gold in the alley of a casual cultivator's stall in Luoyue Xiuxian Market. It only contains one third of it.

The remaining piece at the auction looked like it was two-thirds complete.

By taking a picture of it, we should be able to restore the original ancient elixir recipe.

On the auction stage, Sun Ming also spoke at this time: "Although the incomplete ancient pill recipe is incomplete, it is also a second-level elixir recipe. Even if it is just the combination of spiritual herbs above, it can also allow the alchemist to gain a lot of spiritual medicine experience. The starting price is 100 spiritual stones."

There were sobs from the audience.

A brave independent cultivator said, "Manager Sun Ming, you are cheating me. The spiritual medicine in the second-level ancient pill recipe must have been extinct long ago, not to mention that it is a residual recipe."

Sun Ming responded: "Haha, only those who are destined to know will know."

The final part is all about small items, which are sold by the organizers on behalf of the shops in the market by doing favors.

To be honest, Sun Ming really doesn't think highly of this remnant. If he were in charge, this remnant would definitely not be included in the auction.

In the next half hour, there were still many similar things. Sun Ming could only accept it with a pinch of his nose.

"Look, someone has made a bid. VIP No. 16 bids one hundred spirit stones!" Sun Ming was secretly grateful to Cao Rui in his heart.

Chen Daoyou is still reliable. He is very decisive when it comes to supporting the team.

The guests in the conference room below also shut up.

With Cao Rui taking the lead, Sun Ming was able to take pictures of the next small items smoothly.

After a while.

VIP Room No. 16.

Cao Rui looked at the neat recipe in his hand, still a little bit unconvinced. With just one hundred spirit stones, a second-level ancient recipe for cultivation elixir was put together like this?

"Well, many elixirs are indeed hard to find."

"There are even several types that I have never heard of based on my experience with spiritual medicine. Perhaps after I get promoted to the foundation building stage, I can practice the second-level alchemy technique and master more perfect-level pill recipes. Only then will I have enough spiritual medicine knowledge to try to transform them into new pill recipes."

Cao Rui was already extremely satisfied to be able to complete this recipe for the elixir that he bought unintentionally.

Put the pill recipe into the storage bag.

To avoid trouble.

Cao Rui quietly left the auction venue through the VIP room passage in advance.

Cao Rui returned to the guest room of Danlingbao Pavilion and first wrote down the experimental spiritual medicines needed for the ancient elixir recipes he had photographed.

Not long after, Sun Ming, who had finished the auction, showed up.

"Haha, Lao Chen, I have to thank you for supporting us at the end of the show!"

Sun Ming was very grateful and he started by thanking him. He completely acknowledged Cao Rui and changed his address from Fellow Daoist Chen to Old Chen.

Cao Rui could only smile faintly in response. He couldn't just say that he had just spent a hundred spirit stones to buy the remaining recipe, not for you.

Instead, he successfully mixed a second-level ancient pill recipe, increasing the value of this incomplete recipe a hundred times.

It's fine to be misunderstood.

Cao Rui coughed dryly and said, "Ahem, Fellow Daoist Sun, I have something to trouble you with."

"As you know, I took a picture of an ancient pill recipe. This is the name and quantity of the experimental elixirs I need."

"Can Brother Sun complete the task?"

Cao Rui handed the written elixir to Sun Ming.

Seeing that it was serious business, Cao Rui took the list and looked at it carefully.

After a moment, Sun Ming nodded: "No problem, some of the spiritual medicines may take a few more days to be mobilized from other places, but I can prepare them for you within ten days. Old Chen, can you wait for ten days?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Rui said, "Sure, I can wait."

After finishing the business, Sun Ming started chatting: "Do you know why I don't let you fight with VIP No. 3? Which force is in VIP Room No. 3?"

"Now that the auction is over, it's not against the rules to reveal their identities."

"The person in VIP Room No. 3 is a Foundation Establishment Stage abbot from Miaoyin Temple!"

"They came here this time because they were invited by the managers behind Jingfang City to show their support."

"In short, it is an existence that small forces like us cannot afford to offend."

Cao Rui showed an understanding look, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Not surprisingly, this Qingling Xiuxian Market is a small alias of the Yunshui Sect.

The Yunshui Sect now invited the Foundation Establishment Stage disciples from the Miaoyin Temple. Was it really just to show their support?
