The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1172 had some luck, but not much.

The ordinary elixir trading area was teeming with people.

Although the Spirit Medicine Trading Festival generally refers to the trading of relatively valuable spirit medicines, not every spirit medicine can exceed one million spirit stones, so the vast majority of transactions take place in the ordinary area.

The premium elixirs trading area had far fewer people, and the high-end elixirs trading area was even more sparse, with only about two hundred stalls in the entire high-end area.

Lin Chen and his companion walked past the stalls, scanning them one by one. After passing twenty or thirty stalls, Lin Chen stopped, his eyes landing on a nearby stall with a look of surprise.

The stall's sign prominently displays three large characters.

Flawless fruit.

Lin Chen and Qiao Wei exchanged a glance, both seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.

As expected of a spiritual medicine trading market that gathers the entire Wilderness Realm, I saw one of them as soon as I arrived.

Lin Chen walked up to the stall and asked, "Boss, how much are your flawless fruits?"

The stall owner was a middle-aged man with a shrewd eye. He looked the two of them up and down a few times and replied, "Ten million spirit stones per stone, no bargaining."

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "You have more than one?"

The stall owner replied, "I stumbled upon a flawless tree in the wilderness. It was the season for flawless fruits to ripen, so I picked all the ripe fruits. There were four in total."

Lin Chen asked, "If I want all four at once, can I get a discount?"

The stall owner looked surprised, seemingly shocked by Lin Chen's immense wealth, but still firmly shook his head: "The value of the Flawless Fruit is obvious to all. Ten million per fruit, no discounts."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, but I need to inspect the goods."

"Of course."

The stall owner took out a jade box with rune seals and placed it in front of Lin Chen.

Lin Chen opened the jade box, inside was a fruit the size of a fist, emitting a strong fragrance.

The Flawless Fruit is like jade, smooth and soft, but opaque. Overall, it gives people the feeling of flawless white jade, no wonder it is called the Flawless Fruit.

It has been confirmed that it is indeed a flawless fruit.

"Okay, I'll take all four."

After inspecting all four herbs in turn, Lin Chen paid 40 million spirit stones to acquire the first type of medicinal herb.

To refine a Great Luo Rejuvenation Pill, you only need one Flawless Fruit, but who knows if the refining will fail?
These spiritual herbs are priceless and unavailable. Since we've come across them, let's buy them. If we have extra materials, refining a few more Great Luo Rejuvenation Pills would be excellent. Great Luo Rejuvenation Pills belong to the Immortal Realm and contain immortal spiritual power. Originally, refining them successfully in the Wilderness Realm was extremely difficult, but now that Lin Chen possesses a metal piece that can absorb and release immortal spiritual energy, it's a great help. Adding immortal spiritual energy to the pill refining process will greatly increase the success rate.

The function of the Great Luo Resurrection Pill is to revive the soul. Simply put, it is to bring back to life those who are dead but not quite dead. It is especially suitable for people like Fairy Xuanji, whose bodies are almost completely dead, but whose primordial spirit is still alive. It allows the primordial spirit to reunite with the body and be completely resurrected.

The value of a elixir capable of bringing the dead back to life cannot be measured in spirit stones. It's always good to refine as many as possible.

After leaving the stall, Lin Chen smiled and said, "Three more are needed. Let's continue."

The two visited all two hundred stalls, but found nothing more.

Lin Chen smiled wryly: "I had some luck, but not much."

Qiao Wei laughed and said, "The trade fair will last for ten days. This is only the first day. There may still be people who haven't arrived yet. The value of the Flawless Fruit is the lowest among these four values. It may not actually sell for ten million spirit stones. The stall owner was just trying to gain popularity. He set a price of ten million spirit stones to enter the advanced area and then ran into us, which is why he sold it all in one go."

“The other three spiritual herbs are far more valuable than the Flawless Fruit. If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t set up a stall here to sell them. I would take them to an auction to sell them to more people and get a better price.”

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Oh right, there's also an auction. Let's go check it out."

The two arrived at the square in front of the auction. There was a magical light screen at the entrance, displaying information about the various items to be auctioned.

Lin Chen and his companion's eyes lit up as they watched the information flashing across the screen.

"Divine Thunder Heavenly Soul Wood!"

Lin Chen was overjoyed: "It really is! It's part of the second batch of auction items, and the bidding will begin this afternoon."

Qiao Wei smiled and said, "Good news. If we can secure them, we'll only need two more."

"Wait, then."

The two strolled around casually to pass the time, and soon it was afternoon.

When the time came for the second auction, those interested in bidding paid one thousand spirit stones and received bidding tokens. This prevented unauthorized people from entering to watch the excitement and disrupt the normal auction.

Every medicinal herb being auctioned here is a rare treasure, but Lin Chen has no immediate need for other rare items, so he waits patiently.

"The next item is the twelfth item in the auction: a section of the core of the Divine Thunder Heavenly Soul Wood."

"The Divine Thunder Heavenly Soul Wood is a product of the Heavenly Soul Tree after it developed sentience and became a demon, but failed to undergo the tribulation of lightning. This particular piece of Divine Thunder Heavenly Soul Wood was left behind after the Heavenly Soul Tree demon reached the True Self Realm, failed to undergo the tribulation of lightning to become a great demon, and was reduced to ashes. It is a rare find, appearing only once every hundred years..."
