Chapter 48: Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg

Chapter 48: Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg

In the private room, Gu He sat quietly in a chair, fingers interlocked. As the increasing prices echoed in his ears, a faint smile appeared on his face.

This Miteer Tushan was indeed a savvy businessman. He only mentioned the effects of the Second-Grade Azure Spirit Pill but did not disclose its drawbacks.

The Second-Grade Azure Spirit Pill, while effective in helping a Fighter break through barriers and advance, could only enhance one or two stars of strength. Moreover, it carried a significant risk of backlash.

Bids resonated continuously in the auction hall. In just ten minutes, the price of a single Azure Spirit Pill had risen from three hundred and fifty thousand to around four hundred and eighty thousand. At this point, the bidding declarations became sparse. After all, for many, a single pill at four hundred and eighty thousand was already quite substantial. Two pills would amount to nearly a million, a price too high for many.

"5,50,000!"

Just when the price paused at four hundred and ninety thousand, a slightly loud voice finally rang out in the private room.

Hearing the sudden increase of sixty thousand, Gu He looked over with a hint of surprise. He murmured to himself, "It seems like some prominent family has set their eyes on this Azure Spirit Pill."

The sudden bidding from the private room immediately quieted the previously noisy auction hall. Those who had intended to raise the bid again looked at each other and reluctantly sat down. Even though they had some funds, compared to the major families in the private room, they were undoubtedly overestimating their capabilities.

In that case, it was better to simply give up.

"5,60,000"

"5,70,000!"

"5,80,000!"

"5,90,000!"

...

In the end, the Azure Spirit Pill was sold for six hundred thousand gold coins.

After auctioning the Azure Spirit Pill, the prices for the following items did not reach such high levels. Some items were only bid on once and were successfully taken away. This made Miteer Tushan on the stage somewhat distressed; after all, it affected his performance and income.

Fortunately, after this downturn lasted for over ten minutes, it suddenly picked up. Even Gu He, due to the auction item, found his attention drawn.

On the crystal platform, Gu He carefully raised a silver plate covered with red cloth, facing the audience with a mysterious expression.

"Everyone, the next item to be auctioned will surely interest you. If nurtured well, it might even produce a Dou King-level entity in your family."

Hearing Miteer Tushan's introduction, Gu He faintly sensed what was about to be auctioned.

"Fifth-order magical beast egg, Ironwing Giant Eagle!"

At this moment, Miteer Tushan shook his hand, revealing a blue-colored magical beast egg on the silver plate, covered with strange patterns, looking quite mysterious.

"As expected..."

Looking at the blue magical beast egg in Miteer Tushan's hand, a smile appeared on Gu He's lips.

The entire blue magical beast egg was covered in strange patterns, appearing quite mystical. The appearance of this so-called fifth-order magical beast egg brought a momentary quietness to the auction. However, the silence did not last long before it erupted into excitement again.

Even the families in the private room were in a bit of a commotion. Obviously, the fifth-order magical beast egg had stirred their interest.

After all, obtaining this magical beast egg and nurturing it well could potentially result in the assistance of a Dou King-level entity in the future.

Moreover, the Ironwing Giant Eagle was a rare flying magical beast.

"I like this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg!"

In a private room, a middle-aged man looked at the magical beast egg in Miteer Tushan's hand with passionate eyes.

"Master, I'm afraid this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg won't go for less than a million gold coins. If we spend extravagantly like this, we won't be able to compete for the Dou King Pellets later on," a man resembling a steward whispered behind the middle-aged man.

"That's true, but it seems other major families have their eyes on those Dou Spirit Pills as well. We don't have the strength to compete with them," the middle-aged man sighed.

On the crystal auction platform, Miteer Tushan enthusiastically explained the benefits of the Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg. The audience below, looking at the magical beast egg in his hand, had eyes that instantly became extremely heated.

"Hehe, I'm sure you all understand the importance of this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg now. Let the auction for this magical beast egg begin! The starting price is one million, and now, let the bidding start!" Miteer Tushan said with a smiling face on the crystal auction platform.

"One million gold coins, a bit expensive."

Hearing the million-dollar price, Gu He was slightly surprised, but considering that the Ironwing Giant Eagle was a flying magical beast, he felt somewhat relieved. "Although it's a bit pricey, a flying magical beast is indeed worth this price."

However, he could sense that after this million-dollar price appeared, the once fervent gazes in the venue decreased significantly.

Apparently, such a high price had caused many to withdraw.

"One million one hundred thousand gold coins!"

"One million two hundred thousand gold coins!"

"One million three hundred thousand gold coins!"

Just after Miteer Tushan finished speaking, voices echoed from various private rooms.

Clearly, even at such a high price, the temptation of the Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg had prompted many prominent families to bid.

Soon, the price for this magical beast egg rose to a high of one million seven hundred thousand.

Seeing the diminishing number of bidding voices, Gu He knew it was time for him to intervene.

Yes, this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg was one of the auction items he had set his eyes on.

Although the Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg was of no use to him personally, his disciple seemed to be lacking a pet.

If he were to gift this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg to his disciple and trigger a tenfold return, what kind of magical beast egg would he obtain?

Thinking of this, Gu He felt some anticipation. He immediately shouted, "Two million gold coins!"

As soon as this price came out, a commotion erupted in the auction hall.

Subsequently, even among the major families, no one continued to bid.

This guy added thirty thousand gold coins in one go, obviously declaring to everyone, "I'm claiming this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg!"

On the crystal auction platform, Miteer Tushan heard Gu He's voice and was somewhat surprised.

Why would the Alchemist King want this Fifth-Order Magical Beast Egg?

However, although he was puzzled, he quickly reacted. After asking the crowd three times, he decisively brought down the auction hammer.
