Chapter 1836: Chapter 1833: Soul Consoling Tree
The man in black went down with the Avatar Embryo, and the next auction item was brought upâa young sapling, which caused an uproar upon its appearance!
"Is this the Soul Consoling Tree?" The Head of Cheng Family suddenly stood up, staring fixedly at the tiny sapling, unable to stop himself from saying, "I didnât expect a Soul Consoling Tree to appear at this auction!"
Ling Feng had never heard of the Soul Consoling Tree before, so he asked, "What is the purpose of the Soul Consoling Tree? Is it rare?"
"The Soul Consoling Tree is one of the three great divine trees of our Ancient Ruins, extremely rare. It is said that it only has a minuscule chance of being born on battlefields where millions have perished! The Soul Consoling Tree can absorb resentful souls and spirits, converting their power into a tranquil Soul Power! If used for cultivation, it can greatly enhance oneâs Soul Power strength..."
At this point, the Head of Cheng Family clapped his hands and said, "If we have a Soul Consoling Tree, doesnât that increase the chances of refining the Avatar Embryo?"
Others also considered this, and the elder from Storm Sect displayed a manic expression on his face: "Hahaha, this is wonderful, truly heavenâs blessing! I will spare no expense to acquire the Soul Consoling Tree, which will give me a greater certainty in refining the Avatar Embryo!"
For cultivators, the most important thing is Soul Power; the most difficult to cultivate, too, is Soul Power!
The soul is immortal, the body is merely a vessel for the soul! So, regarding this Soul Consoling Tree, the people from the top family clans were already ready to fight fiercely.
"The effects of the Soul Consoling Tree need not be detailed; I believe everyone is aware of its significance!" Baili could feel the heated atmosphere, so he didnât continue with suspense, directly announcing, "The starting bid for this Soul Consoling Tree is fifty bottles of the healing elixir, Revitalizing Elixir, with each increment no less than five bottles!"
Revitalizing Elixir? They actually want Revitalizing Elixir? Although Revitalizing Elixir is a high-level healing elixir, its value cannot compare to the Soul Consoling Tree!
Many family clans had plenty of such elixirs, and soon one of the family clans called out: "I bid sixty bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!"
"Eighty bottles of Revitalizing Elixir."
"One hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!"
"One hundred thirty bottles of Revitalizing Elixir."
...
Soon, the bidding for the Soul Consoling Tree surpassed two hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir, at which point the Head of Cheng Family pressed the button: "I bid two hundred fifty bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!"
Ling Feng was somewhat surprised; the Head of Cheng Family increased the bid by fifty bottles at once, clearly determined to win the Soul Consoling Tree! The Cheng Familyâs foundation is indeed deep; although many family clans possess Revitalizing Elixir, the elixir yield rate is limited, and few clans would accumulate so much.
"Elixirs are one of the main products our Cheng Family deals in!" Cheng Minxue whispered to Ling Feng, "In terms of elixir reserves, there are few in the Ancient Ruins who can compare to us!"
đđ«đđđšđđŻđđ đđđ.đđŒđ
Ling Feng touched his nose; having been with the Cheng Family for so long, he had never seriously asked about what the Cheng Family dealt with.
Just as Cheng Minxue was explaining to Ling Feng, the bidding for the Soul Consoling Tree had already exceeded three hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir.
"I bid five hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!" Amidst the fierce bidding, the elderâs voice from Storm Sectâs private room echoed again: "Everyone, this Soul Consoling Tree is of great significance to Storm Sect, so I hope you can show some respect to this old man!"
"Elder Ye, the auction is based on oneâs capabilities. The Soul Consoling Tree is a rare item; youâve already secured the Avatar Embryo, do you want the Soul Consoling Tree as well? Your Storm Sectâs appetite is rather large!"
"Indeed, while Storm Sect is powerful, reason must still prevail; moreover, this auction is not hosted by your sect. If you want the Soul Consoling Tree, rely on your capabilities! I bid five hundred ten bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!"
"Haha, we may not have much else, but Revitalizing Elixirs we do have aplenty. I bid five hundred fifty bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!" Another family clan representative laughed heartily.
Although Storm Sect is strong, the other family clans are not to be underestimated! If this was some ordinary treasure, they might give face to Storm Sectâs elder, but the Soul Consoling Treeâs value is too great for a mere elder from Storm Sect.
Even if the Sect Master of Storm Sect were here, they wouldnât be able to stop everyoneâs pursuit of the Soul Consoling Tree!
In the private room of Storm Sect, Elder Yeâs expression was grim; with his status as an elder, he could at most mobilize five hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir, given his rank wasnât exceedingly high in the sect!
"This is infuriating, truly infuriating; this bunch of people is spoiling my plans!" Elder Ye cursed angrily, "With the Soul Consoling Tree, I would have a seventy percent chance of refining the Avatar Embryo, thus strengthening my powerâwhat a pity!"
The young man frowned slightly: "Grandfather, why donât we try that method? I could lead a group to snatch the Soul Consoling Tree back?"
Elder Ye sighed: "Weâll see when the time comes. If the Soul Consoling Tree is claimed by those of the Ximen Family, then we can only resign ourselves to misfortune!"
After exceeding five hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir, the bid prices gradually slowed down; after all, five hundred bottles is no small sum, and many clans donât even have such reserves!
When the bidding price paused at six hundred sixty-five bottles of Revitalizing Elixir, the auction hall fell silent.
"The current bid is six hundred sixty-five bottles; is there anyone offering a higher bid?" Baili surveyed the room and called out, "If not, then the Soul Consoling Tree will..."
"Seven hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir!" At this moment, the Head of Cheng Family slapped the button and shouted loudly.
Seven hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixirâwhen other family clan representatives saw it was the Cheng Family making the bid, each shook their head. The Cheng Familyâs primary business is elixirs, and with the Head personally making a bid, raising it to seven hundred bottles, others felt somewhat pressured.
Several of the family clan representatives were tempted but ultimately gave up; after all, seven hundred bottles for a young Soul Consoling Tree was already an overvaluation, bidding further would not be worthwhile.
After Baili confirmed several times, finding no further bids, the Soul Consoling Tree was successfully won by the Head of Cheng Family.
The Head of Cheng Familyâs face glowed with joy; obtaining such a Soul Consoling Tree was certainly worth the journey.
Very soon, the Soul Consoling Tree was delivered to the Cheng Familyâs private room, and the Head promptly handed over seven hundred bottles of Revitalizing Elixir.
"So this is the Soul Consoling Tree." Ling Feng looked at the small sapling on the table, surprise written across his face, for Ling Feng could sense the pure Soul Power emanating from the Soul Consoling Tree!
