Chapter 47: Shock Among the Major Families

Chapter 47: Shock of the Major Families

Thinking of the Branding Iron Poison within his body, Nalan Jie felt a cloud of gloom in his heart.

Once the Branding Iron Poison erupted, there would be no cure.

As the pillar of the Nalan family, if he were to fall, and Yanran, that girl, had not yet grown up, the Nalan family would be in great danger.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Just then, a knocking sound came from outside the private room, bringing Nalan Jie, who was immersed in his troubles, back to his senses.

"Come in." Following that, Nalan Jie faintly spoke towards the door.

Creak!

As the door opened, a delicately featured maid walked in holding a list.

"Respected guest, this is the auction item list that Elder Supervisor asked me to bring over. Please take a look?" The maid held a list and slowly placed it on the table in front of Nalan Jie.

"Auction item list?"

"Didn't he already give it to me?"

At these words, Nalan Jie furrowed his brow, somewhat puzzled.

The maid smiled faintly and explained, "Elder Supervisor said that an additional item has been added to this auction. This list is the newly revised one he just sent over."

"Added auction item?" Hearing the maid's words, a trace of curiosity flashed in Nalan Jie's eyes.

"I will take my leave first." After delivering the list, the maid gave a graceful salute and then slowly exited the private room.

"Could it be that they've added something extraordinary?" Looking at the list on the table, Nalan Jie felt a hint of curiosity.

After all, if they added an ordinary item, Miteer Auction House wouldn't go to such lengths, specifically sending over a new list.

Thinking about it, Nalan Jie reached out and picked up the list, examining it carefully.

After a moment, Nalan Jie's breathing suddenly became rapid, and his face changed drastically.

"Sixth-grade Dou Spirit Pill!"

"The highlight item of this auction is actually a sixth-grade Dou Spirit Pill!"

Nalan Jie's eyes widened in astonishment as he looked at the list in his hand.

Immediately, Nalan Jie reacted, and his breath once again became rapid.

"I must obtain this Dou Spirit Pill!"

Since being poisoned four years ago, Nalan Jie had been stuck at the Six-Star Dou King realm for a full four years, unable to make a breakthrough.

Every time the Branding Iron Poison flared up, Nalan Jie had to expend a considerable amount of energy to suppress it.

Not to mention breaking through, his cultivation had even shown a trend of decline in these years.

Now, the appearance of this Dou Spirit Pill undoubtedly gave Nalan Jie hope.

As long as he took this Dou Spirit Pill, he could successfully break through to the Seven-Star Dou King realm.

By then, he might even be able to completely suppress the Branding Iron Poison in his body.

Or even eliminate it!

Thinking of this, Nalan Jie's expression became somewhat excited.

Today, he was determined to obtain this Dou Spirit Pill.

At the same time, in another private room not far away, the head of the Mu family, Mu Chen, also received the latest list brought by a maid.

"Dou Spirit Pill!"

"Hahaha, they are actually auctioning a Dou Spirit Pill. Truly a heaven-sent opportunity for me too!"

Chapter 47: Shock Among the Major Families

Looking at the list in his hand, Mu Chen appeared even more excited than Nalan Jie.

Although the Mu family, along with the Nalan family and the Miteer family, were all recognized as the three major families in the imperial capital, Mu Chen knew that there was still a significant gap in strength between the Mu family and the other two.

If it weren't for the strong connection between the Mu family and the Jia Ma Empire, coupled with the influence of the Mu family in the military, it would probably not be enough to contend with the other two major families.

Additionally, Mu Chen's cultivation was at the Four-Star Dou King level. Although he was recognized as one of the top ten powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire, he was unfortunately ranked last.

At this moment, as Mu Chen looked at the list in his hand, his face was filled with excitement.

If he obtained this Dou Spirit Pill, his strength would greatly increase, narrowing the gap between the Mu family and the other two major families. It would also solidify the Mu family's position among the three major families.

Similar situations unfolded in other private rooms of the major families in the imperial capital.

...

In the early stages of the auction, there were no items that ignited a fervor in the atmosphere. Moreover, those participating in the bidding were just some people sitting in the auction venue. The powerful forces with vast wealth sitting in private rooms had yet to make a move.

"Ding!"

Another crisp bell rang out from the crystal platform. Miteer Tushan, with a smile on his face, received a small silver tray from a maid. On the tray were two transparent small jade bottles, each containing a faint blue pill rolling inside.

As soon as these pills appeared, they attracted many gazes. After all, on the continent of Dou Qi, pills were heavyweight items comparable to techniques and martial skills. Some pills that directly improved one's strength were even more sought after by countless people.

"Hehe, this pill is called the 'Azure Spirit Pill.' I believe many of you have heard of its reputation. It can assist those who have been stuck at the pinnacle of Dou Master for a long time to break through barriers. Moreover, this Azure Spirit Pill is classified as a second-grade item. After taking it, those lucky enough might even experience a rapid surge in power, reaching the level of a Two-Star Dou Grandmaster." Miteer Tushan pointed at the pills in the jade bottles, smiling as he spoke.

As soon as Miteer Tushan's words fell, a commotion swept through the auction venue. Countless eyes turned scorching as they looked at the jade bottles on the silver tray.

This kind of pill that could help individuals break through class barriers was almost considered a rare treasure even in the imperial capital.

Although there was only one character difference between Dou Master and Dou Grandmaster, only by entering the latter could one truly be considered at the level of a master in the path of Dou Qi cultivation. This was a nearly qualitative leap, and countless people were stuck at the peak of Dou Master, unable to take that step.

However, a single Azure Spirit Pill could easily solve these issues. Therefore, when this pill appeared, even some prominent families in the front row showed a bit of interest.

After all, one Azure Spirit Pill could cultivate a Dou Grandmaster. In the long run, this deal was quite profitable, especially since, while Dominators were considered the masters in the Jia Ma Empire, the level of Dou Grandmaster was a crucial pillar for many forces. Having a few more of them would undoubtedly be beneficial.

"Of course, since you have heard of the Azure Spirit Pill, you should also be aware of some of its negative effects." The auctioneer smiled, a hint of cunning in his eyes. He didn't explicitly explain the backlash effects of the Azure Spirit Pill; instead, he glossed over them vaguely and then waved his hand. "Starting bid, three hundred and thirty thousand!"

"Three hundred and forty thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, someone from the rear shouted loudly.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand!" There were evidently many people interested in the second-grade Azure Spirit Pill, so in less than a minute, the previous bid was surpassed.
