Chapter 285 Auction Turmoil
The old man looked surprised, and after carefully opening it, his expression changed drastically!
"This...this is a fifth-grade pill?!"

In an instant, an alluring medicinal fragrance wafted out, and even just a whiff of it gave one the feeling of increased cultivation!

"These are two Spirit Breaking Pills. After taking them, cultivators at the peak of the Dou Ling level can increase their success rate in advancing to Dou Wang by 50%. Other Dou Ling levels can take them to increase their cultivation by 1 to 2 stars."

Lin Fan began to introduce himself.

"A Spirit-Breaking Pill?!"

The old man looked surprised upon hearing this, and then spoke somewhat awkwardly.

"My lord, this is indeed a genuine fifth-grade pill, and the medicinal power it contains is extremely pure. However, I have never heard of such a pill before..."

"Hehe, if you don't believe what I'm saying, then I'll go auction it elsewhere."

After saying that, Lin Fan reached out to take back the pill.

"You flatter us, sir. As a Dou Huang expert, you would never lie to us. However, this matter is of great importance, and I must inform the sect leader first. Please wait a moment!"

The old man quickly put on a smile and ordered the maid beside him to treat Lin Fan well, while he himself walked towards the back door!
Lin Fan wasn't in a hurry. He sat there leisurely drinking tea. About five or six minutes later, a tall and strong middle-aged man walked in.

The middle-aged man went straight to the table, carefully picked up a pill, smelled it, and then looked surprised.

“My friend, I am Yuan Yi, the sect leader of the Eight Doors. Could you sell these two pills to our Eight Doors? As for the price, rest assured, it will definitely not be lower than the auction price.”

Yuan Yi clasped his hands in a fist salute to Lin Fan and spoke.

"I'm just taking these two pills out to sell for money. It doesn't matter who I sell them to. Just tell me your price."

Lin Fan was straightforward.

"How about I give you 500 million gold coins for these two pills?!"

After thinking for a while, Yuan Yi tentatively asked for a price.

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow slightly. Strictly speaking, this price was already quite high. After all, the medicinal materials he needed to refine these two pills totaled less than 500,000 gold coins. This price had increased tenfold, which was not bad.

"Alright, I'm going to attend your auction later to buy some things, so we can settle the bill together after the auction."

"Okay, we'll arrange seating for our distinguished guest right away!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi readily agreed and gave instructions to the maid beside her.

"Sect Master, do these two pills really have the effects that guy described?!"

After Lin Fan left, the old man approached Yuan Yi and asked.

"It's alright. My son Yuan Tai is at the peak of the Dou Ling stage. It's just right to give him one. If he can't break through to Dou Wang, I'll make sure he regrets it!"

After saying that, Yuan Yi turned and left to feed his son his medicine!
On the other side, Lin Fan entered the auction hall led by a maid. The eight doors were quite thoughtful, arranging a VIP seat for him at the front.

The auction was about to begin, and participants were gradually entering from outside.

"Isn't that Fan Ling, the young sect master of the Blood Sect? I didn't expect even he would come in person!"

"And that woman, she seems to be from the Heavenly Serpent Palace!"

"The Lone Wolf Gang has arrived too, it's really lively!"

Waves of people entered the venue, and gasps of surprise could be heard from the seats from time to time.

Lin Fan also cast his curious gaze over, and the first thing that caught his eye was a group of people wearing extremely conspicuous blood-red robes. The leader looked to be in his twenties, thin, with an unnaturally pale face, but his lips were bright red, like a vampire!
Judging from their appearances, you can tell this group comes from the Blood Clan.

Another group of people wore cyan robes, led by a woman with a very voluptuous figure and a black bamboo hat. Lin Fan sensed a somewhat familiar aura emanating from these people, somewhat similar to the Green Barbarians he had fought before.

"I wonder how Qinglin is doing."

Lin Fan thought to himself, it's only been a few days since we parted, and he's already starting to miss that girl!

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Black Seal City Auction. I'm sure you'll all be satisfied with today's items."

"Without further ado, the auction is now officially open!"

After most of the people had arrived, the auctioneer went up on stage and officially began the auction of the first item!
"This is a high-level Xuan-rank wind-attribute cultivation technique, the Wind Whirlwind Technique. The starting bid is 50 gold coins, and each bid must be at least 1 gold coins higher. Let's begin..."

The initial auction items showed little interest, as everyone knew they were merely appetizers.

The Blood Sect, the Heavenly Serpent Palace, and other forces did not make any bids, clearly indicating that they were aiming for their last trump card.

"The next item up for auction is a fragment of a map."

Lin Fan had been feeling rather bored, but when he heard the words "incomplete map," he immediately perked up and focused his attention on the auction stage.

On the auction stage, an ancient fragment of a map was displayed. Lin Fan was very familiar with it because he already had two pieces of it. It was the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame!

"After being examined by our Eight Doors treasure appraisers, this map has been confirmed to be possibly related to some mysterious treasures. Moreover, its texture is extremely hard, and neither fire nor violence can damage it in the slightest."

"The starting bid for this fragment is 30 gold coins."

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a chorus of boos erupted from the audience!
"What the hell? A crappy map is selling for 30 gold coins? Why don't you just rob someone?!"

"Exactly! They dare to sell it without even understanding what it is. What's the use of not being afraid of fire? Do you expect me to use it to make a pair of underwear?!"

"Hahaha!"

Amidst a burst of laughter from below, the host's expression darkened. Just when he thought the item was going to go unsold, a bid was placed.

"35 gold coins."

The moment the voice rang out, Lin Fan's expression froze for a moment, then a strange smile appeared on his face!

Although the owner of the voice pretended to be a little hoarse, it was all too familiar to Lin Fan—it was Xiao Yan!
Lin Fan turned around and looked back, and sure enough, he saw a figure hidden under a black robe.

"50 gold coins!"

Lin Fan smiled slightly and called out a number.

"60 million!"

It was obvious that Xiao Yan had also noticed Lin Fan, and his tone became a bit colder.

"100 million!"

Lin Fan didn't hesitate at all and immediately raised the price!
"What's going on? Are these two idiots?!"

"Spending 100 million gold coins on a crappy map? That's pure madness!"

The two men's bidding war sparked a buzz of discussion, with everyone looking at Lin Fan and Xiao Yan as if they were fools.

"120 million!"

However, before the room could quiet down, another bid was made, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound, their surprise growing stronger!

Because the one who spoke was none other than Fan Ling, the young master of the Blood Sect!
