metaverse evolution.

Chu Fei was very familiar with refining the potion. Although the "Epiphany Potion" had always been simulated and deduced and had never been actually refined, the simulation had lasted for such a long time that he had simulated almost all the steps.

Chu Fei took out a plant of the lowest quality Ambergris, a plant of the lowest quality Gentiana fruit, a Golden Snake Flower of not very good quality, and then the rest of the auxiliary medicines, and began his first refining.

It is a deduction in itself, and the inferior medicinal materials used now are used, so failure is inevitable.

Looking at the burnt medicine in his hand, Chu Fei was not surprised at all. He thought for a moment, sorted out the problem several times, thought about it thousands of times, and started again.

After doing this three times, Chu Fei used inferior medicinal materials to refine a 100% quality enlightenment potion.

When Master Chu does something, it must be of 100% quality, otherwise it would be a waste of his foundation.

And after all, it was a watered-down 13.0 potion, so it was difficult for Chu Fei, but not too difficult. Could it be more difficult than making Spring Rain Incense?

Chunyu Ranxiang itself is a 13.0 peak medicine, and with the addition of the medicine guide there are two variations. As for the poison, although it may not have reached the 14.0 level, it is at least at the peak of 13.0.

The successful refining of Spring Rain Incense meant that the 13.0 potion was no longer difficult for Chu Fei.

Of course, Chu Fei had not studied the real 13.0 potion like "Speedy Wind Potion" and the potion involving the law. But seeing that the Speedy Wind Potion was actually a 13.0 "primary" potion, it was clear that the refining method should not be difficult.

Afterwards, in line with the principle of maximizing profits, Chu Fei tried his best to refine enlightenment potions of more than 100% quality.

This enlightenment potion itself is to comprehend the charm of the dragon. As the quality improves, the effect of the comprehending will be even greater. Although this enlightenment potion is watered down, Chu Fei wants to make a name for himself, so he can't mess around.

Chu Fei still had thousands of ambergris and gentian fruits on him, and this time he planned to refine them all into enlightenment potions for sale.

Medicinal materials cannot be stored for a long time, but potions can be stored for a shorter time, so potions have to be refined continuously.

As for this joint auction, Chu Fei decided to get about ten bottles first, with different qualities, to test the market.

By the early hours of the morning, Chu Fei had refined 12 bottles of epiphany potion, totaling more than 11 liters, or more than 100 bottles. The quality ranged from 130% to %.

Chu Fei has 86 purple gentian fruits in his hand, and he uses purple gentian fruits to refine potions with a quality exceeding 120%.

After checking the potion and making sure there was no problem, Chu Fei contacted Jiang Longyu directly. Jiang Longyu came in person and was stunned when he saw the 11 bottles of so-called epiphany potion in front of him.

After a while, he asked Chu Fei in disbelief: "Can you make a 13.0 potion?"

There are 11 bottles of potions now, this is not an accident, this must be a complete mastery of the corresponding technology. And listening to the introduction of the epiphany potion, Jiang Longyu was even more shocked.

Chu Fei smiled and said, "I have mastered one at the moment. It is a technique I learned while studying the Spring Rain Incense Burning Technique."

Jiang Longyu looked at Chu Fei deeply, and said nothing, but quietly took away the potion and part of the introduction of the potion. Jiang Longyu had begun to disbelieve Chu Fei's words.

You said you could refine 11.0 potions, and now you gave me eleven bottles of 13.0 potions, or enlightenment potions. Just listen to how great this name is.

Jiang Longyu was about to leave, and Chu Fei said quietly from behind: "Director Jiang, these eleven bottles of potion have a total of 1127 liters. Let's auction them all. If you are from the Adventure Hall, you can waive the handling fee. I remember the handling fee was 5%."

"Got it." Jiang Longyu responded casually and left.

This "joint" auction is very interesting. The Star Secret Realm has not appeared for four years, and this year is the fifth year. Now, top experts and scholars from all parties have deduced through complicated means, and the possibility of its appearance this year is more than 90%.

The reason why everyone is so detailed is that in the past four years, many experts and scholars have calculated that the probability of occurrence is less than 30%, and it did not appear. This year, the probability of occurrence has suddenly soared to more than 90%, which is almost a lock, and the Star Secret Realm will definitely appear.

This is not a random guess, but calculated based on scientific methods, so it is very reliable, which is why many people gathered here this year.

Faced with such a vast market, there will naturally be auctions. But if everyone holds auctions, no one will make money. Therefore, joint auctions were created.

Each family brings out their own items for a unified auction, and the proceeds are clearly divided among each family. This way, there is less competition and everyone shares the benefits.

In order to gain more profits, they each plundered more auction items. In this way, before the auction, there was already a situation of fighting for auction items.

Most auctions here will take a commission of 3% to 5%, and the more aggressive ones can take 10%; and as the transaction price increases, the commission will even get bigger and bigger.

But now, in order to compete for auction items, the "temporary shareholders" of various auctions have reduced their commissions.

The auction will be held tomorrow night, but everyone is still vying for the items.

Chu Fei suddenly provided 11 bottles of epiphany potion, which was enough to raise the influence of the Adventure Hall to a whole new level.

As for Chu Fei's interests, Chu Fei doesn't need to ask for them. The Adventure Hall will deliver them to him by itself, unless the Adventure Hall does not want more epiphany potions or more advanced potions.

After everything was ready, Chu Fei went into seclusion again. The battle with Jiang Shumin and the other two made Chu Fei discover many shortcomings, but also found many ideas to increase his combat effectiveness, survivability, and direction of practice.

Especially the combination of combat platforms, which urgently needs iteration.

Chu Fei went into seclusion again, but the outside world was in turmoil. Among the various auction item promotions, a group of explosive news appeared:

11.0 There will be 7500 bottles of advanced potions, including Tyrannosaurus Rex Potion, Advanced Purple Sun Strengthening Potion, and Advanced Resurrection Potion, for auction. The capacity of each bottle ranges from 0.5 liters to 1.3 liters, and the quality is between 98% and 102%. The whole bottle will be auctioned and will not be split.

The news spread and immediately triggered all public opinion.

When did the advanced 11.0 potions start to be measured in liters? Aren't they all measured in milliliters?
But everyone realized right away that someone had mastered the method of refining high-level medicine on a large scale! And the quality should be very stable!
This one promotional content alone overshadowed all the auction items.

Even the most slow-witted person would have realized it - things were going to change!
If the 11.0 medicine can be mass-produced, then all medicines 11.0 and below will inevitably have large-scale price cuts.

The auction prices of these medicines have not been announced yet, but it doesn't matter anymore. As long as anything is really popularized on a large scale, the only result is a price reduction.

It was said before that the more scarce items there are, the higher the unit price; but if they become popular on a large scale, they are no longer scarce items.

There were also countless caravans carrying medicines, and all the people in charge looked pale: It's over!

At this time, some smart people quickly ran away with the medicine and dumped it inland; of course, some people took the opportunity to hoard the medicine at a low price. The reason was simple. Although 7500 bottles of medicine were a lot, it was a drop in the bucket when facing the entire market. The impact in the short term should not be significant... maybe.

Amid the chaos, the name of "Potion Master" became increasingly popular.

And in the midst of this chaos, three hours before the auction, a piece of news pushed the "Potion Master" to the top: Epiphany Potion, 13.0 advanced potion, a total of 11 bottles!
Epiphany Potion, just by listening to the name you know it is extraordinary, and it is a 13.0 potion.

According to the news, the epiphany potion has adopted a "big bottle" strategy, with two types: 100 ml and 200 ml. The high-quality one is 200 ml per bottle, and the low-quality one is 100 ml per bottle.

Wait, is that backwards? Shouldn't there be fewer advanced ones?

After seeing this promotional slogan, many people asked the United Auction, and the answer they got was: That’s right!
The reason made public to the public: those of low quality should be sold separately, so that everyone has more opportunities.

After asking, everyone realized that this was a typical marketing method. The low-quality ones were sold separately, and there were many competitors, so the unit price was higher.

The high-level potions themselves are meant for a few forces. If there are too many, everyone will have a share, and the price will not go up. Therefore, high-quality potions have to be played like this. This is a typical artificially created situation of too many wolves and too little meat.

In addition, anyone who wants to participate in the auction must pay a deposit, 8.0 for one million, 9.0 for ten million, 10.0 million for 11.0, 10 million for 12.0, billion for , and and above for ten billion.

Amidst the chaos, Chu Fei came out of seclusion, and then walked into the auction with his three guardians.

The auction had not officially started yet. Chu Fei took the auction brochure and browsed the contents with Jiang Shumin and the others, observing the auction venue.

The brochure is very thick and of course it is not free. It can perhaps be called a "conference journal". It is a thick book that lists tens of thousands of auction items and their starting prices.

The auction for the Starry Secret Realm, which was prepared five years ago, attracted the attention of almost half of the world, and there were not many auction items worth tens of thousands.

In fact, the brochures in Chu Fei and others' hands are for those above 10.0; there are separate small auction halls for those below 10.0, but those are not the focus of Chu Fei and others, as there are more auction items there.

However, it is worth noting that the finale auction items are all marked with a question mark and have not been announced!

The four of them read as they walked. Chu Fei finished reading the entire book in just three minutes and memorized all its contents.

Then Chu Fei looked at the huge auction venue in front of him.

In just one month, a steel-framed building rose from the ground. The entire building was made of iron sheets and membrane structures, and was built very quickly.

The central hall is about 1.2 square meters, has three floors, and can accommodate 150 people. Each seat has a bidding device, and there are boxes around it.

The order of the boxes is chaotic, so there will be no situation where box 1 is noble and box 10 is not priced.

There are also requirements for ordinary seats. If you want to enter here, you need to have the cultivation level of at least 8.0 awakener. Ordinary people should not come in to join in the fun, just go to the small auction hall next to it.

Chu Fei and his three companions did not follow the Adventure Hall into the box, but bought "seat tickets".

For such a grand event, Chu Fei must of course come in to see it all and get to know the inland environment in advance.

At this time, the rules of the auction were displayed on the huge screen in front of the auction hall.

During the auction, descending price auctions and competitive bidding auctions are interspersed with each other. The descending price auctions are finalized and stay for 5 seconds each time; the competitive bidding auction counts down for 10 seconds. If no one bids after ten seconds, the bid is successful.

For such a large auction, there is no rule of shouting three times, and we are too busy to handle it.

In fact, this countdown method will make the bidding more brutal.

There are already two 14.0 masters seated in the auction room. Anyone who dares to disrupt the venue will be warned once, and those who do not listen will be killed on the spot.

If you don’t have enough money during the bidding, you can apply for an interruption and take out a certain item for appraisal; but the temporary appraisal can only be calculated at 60% of the market price - which is equivalent to a dead pawn.

If you are not sure whether you have enough money, it is best to deposit the item at the auction house now. The auction house will estimate the price and give you part of the money first - no cash, and the rest will be settled after the auction. If you send it to the auction in advance, you can get 10% off the market price, and if the auction price is higher later, it will be calculated separately. You can withdraw the item before the auction, but you need to compensate the auction house for % of the fee based on the estimated price.

All currencies on site are calculated uniformly according to "Lingyun Currency". Other currencies can be accepted, but they need to be exchanged in advance. Because the computing power currency is used, the value of various currencies is similar.

During the auction, the auction house has the right to suspend and check the size of funds at any time.

Chu Fei took a look at the content on the big screen, and then took Jiang Shumin and the other two to find their seats. Ticket purchases and deposits had already been taken care of. With Chu Fei's current status, he didn't need to do anything himself.

Chu Fei and his four companions were located at the back of the third floor. Although it was a public location, it was spacious and comfortable, allowing them to observe the entire venue.

The first floor is the most crowded, the second floor is better, and the third floor is the best, requiring a cultivation level of 10.0 or above and a certain amount of wealth.

The arrangement of the entire auction reflects a strict hierarchy everywhere.

After sitting down, Jiang Shumin and the other two protected Chu Fei in the center, and then Jiang Shumin sent a message to Chu Fei: "Master, I have been thinking about it these two days. Can I change the payment method for my 84 bottles of medicine?"

Chu Fei immediately sent a message to the three people at the same time: "Senior Jiang, your 42 bottles of medicine are not 1200% quality, and the overall market value is within 2400 billion. According to the compensation rules, I will compensate billion.

Senior Wei will receive a compensation of 2100 billion yuan, and Senior Qian will receive a compensation of 3300 billion yuan.

Do you three think this is okay?"

Jiang Shumin replied a little embarrassedly, "The 1800 billion will be enough."

When you are with a pharmacist, you should not be too calculative and learn to look at the long-term interests. Jiang Shumin is still somewhat rational.

Wei Hang also smiled and said, "1600 billion will do for me."

Qian Yufeng said after a while: "I only need 2500 billion. In fact, it is already very good to be able to exchange some of the medicines in stock for money and participate in this auction, not to mention that it is doubled."

The three of them nodded together.

Chu Fei shook his head slightly, "Let's bid first. It's a large auction like this, and we don't know what the price of the medicine will be."

Chu Fei and the other three kept communicating. Several 12.0 masters around them looked over frequently, but in the end no one spoke.

Chu Fei and three others discussed the auction items, and a countdown appeared on the big screen.

On the countdown background page, it was written:

【Epiphany potion, 13.0 advanced.

Reference price (tentative):
100% quality, 50 billion/bottle/10 ml;

110% quality, 70 billion/bottle/10 ml,

120% quality 100 billion/bottle/10 ml,

130% quality 180 billion/bottle/10 ml. 】

The screen is displayed for ten seconds, then displays:

[The first auction item, 200 ml of 131% quality epiphany potion, starting price is 3600 billion, and each bid increase must not be less than 1 million. ]

When people saw this promotional picture, there was an uproar at the scene.

When Chu Fei saw this, a smile appeared on his lips. This was the reason why Chu Fei dared to hire three 13.0 masters as bodyguards.

In fact, Chu Fei wanted to set the base price at 100 billion at the beginning, but in the end, the Adventure Hall came to discuss with Chu Fei: it would be too embarrassing to set the price at billion; but if the price went up at the auction, then taking the opportunity to re-price it would be the most appropriate method, which meant that it had been recognized by the market.

Chu Fei is a person who listens to advice, so the word "tentative" came out.

But Chu Fei didn't expect that the first auction item would be the Enlightenment Potion.

While thinking, the background page changed again, showing the test report, multi-party certification, and medicinal properties of the Enlightenment Pharmacy. The shelf life of the Pharmacy was identified as 8 months.

Not to mention the test reports and multi-party certifications, this is also one of the reasons why Chu Fei joined the Adventure Hall. In a scientific environment, these certifications cannot be completed by one person.

In the inland, without these certifications, they are banned drugs with low prices and profits, and cannot appear in formal places such as auctions.

If you want to become a reputable alchemist, you must obtain certification from multiple parties.

Now, Chu Fei solved these problems in one go.

Then Chu Fei looked at the medicinal properties introduction:
[The raw materials of the enlightenment potion come from the 16.0 level alien beast. Influenced by the 16.0 level alien beast, it has a breath of super-dimensional law. This potion stimulates this breath, allowing people to feel this breath, feel the breath of super-dimensional life, and trigger an enlightenment effect.

After actual testing, 100% quality, at least 5 ml can make a 13.0 beginner practitioner have some enlightenment; it is recommended to take more than 8 ml each time, more than 12 ml will cause some mental stress, and the effect will decrease instead of increase. The interval between taking is recommended to be more than three days.

After dilution, it can be used by practitioners with a minimum level of 10.0. All epiphany potions come with dilution tips. 】

The countdown was still going on, but the scene became increasingly noisy as everyone was discussing the epiphany potion.

After seeing the introduction, countless people were jealous. However, the high price meant that casual cultivators were not eligible for it.

Suddenly someone shouted, "Why don't you have a small bottle of Enlightenment Potion?"

"Yes, why don't you have small bottles? They can be packaged in 15 ml or 20 ml portions!"

Most of those who were speaking were practitioners above 11.0.

Amid the clamor, a voice came over the speakers: "Everyone, please be patient. We will make improvements soon. There will be small bottles for the second half of the auction."

Only then did everyone become quiet.

The countdown was over bit by bit, and an elegant cheongsam woman came in gracefully. Her walk was like flowing clouds and water, with an indescribable elegance. Many people even whistled.

But when Chu Fei saw this woman, he was surprised but also frightened. He turned to look at Jiang Shumin and the other two on his left and right, "Is this woman a 13.0 expert?"

"No, 14.0!" Jiang Shumin's eyes were filled with envy. "The big boss of Zhenbao Pavilion, Wei Qingyu."

Jiang Shumin smiled at Chu Fei and said, "Wei Qingyu is less than fifty years old, still unmarried, controls the huge Treasure Pavilion, is worth hundreds of billions, and has many suitors. If the master is interested, you can give it a try."

Chu Fei smiled and said nothing.

Others saw Wei Qingyu as beautiful, but Chu Fei saw the extraordinary cultivation behind the beauty.

Moreover, the psychic eye was ineffective and could only sense Wei Qingyu's cultivation level of 11.0; but Wei Qingyu's movements, manners, appearance and temperament surpassed Long Qingqing, and were only slightly inferior to Shangguan Qinghong.

Now hearing that Wei Qingyu was a 14.0 master, Chu Fei nodded slightly and said nothing more.

As for Jiang Shumin's words, Chu Fei ignored them. It's better to stay away from a 14.0 expert.

At this time, Wei Qingyu was already standing on the auction table, and casually took out a 200 ml bottle of epiphany potion. The packaging of the epiphany potion had been changed, and it was made of pure gold!
Wei Qingyu spoke softly, and her slightly majestic voice echoed in the auction hall, "Thank you all friends for participating in this joint auction.

This joint auction is hosted by Zhenbao Pavilion.

Some people may have heard of the Treasure Pavilion, or this may be the first time they have heard of it. The Treasure Pavilion has been established for 223 years. If the items auctioned in the Treasure Pavilion are counterfeit or inferior, ten times the transaction price will be compensated.

Each auction item has a special seal on its packaging to ensure after-sales service.”

After a slight pause, Wei Qingyu suddenly smiled. For an instant, Chu Fei felt that the person in front of him was extremely charming, but then Chu Fei suddenly woke up.

Without waiting for Chu Fei to say anything, Wei Qingyu spoke softly, without any dignity, but with a charming smile and beautiful eyes: "Next, the first auction item of this joint auction is a new potion made by the potion master, 200 ml of 131% quality epiphany potion.

The 131% quality epiphany potion is the highest quality among this batch of epiphany potions. There are only 800 milliliters in total, which will be auctioned in four batches.

The reason for auctioning large bottles is that repackaging small bottles will cause some waste. Friends who have been in contact with medicines for many years know that there will be a loss of 1% to 3% during the repackaging process. Moreover, when reselling small bottles of medicine, they must be inspected again, which wastes more.

The 131% quality enlightenment potion can promote the perception of super-dimensional attributes for those at the Transcendent Realm; it even has some effect on 14.0 practitioners, although it is very poor.

The starting price is 3600 billion, and each increase in price must not be less than 1 million. "

After the words were spoken, the scene fell into silence.

Chu Fei looked around and felt it was a little quiet.

Only a 10-second countdown flashes on the big screen. If no one bids, the 10-second countdown ends and the auction is unsuccessful.

But when the countdown reached 3 seconds, a quote appeared on the big screen:

[Box No. 27, 5000 billion! ]

Wei Qingyu didn't say anything, just stood there, looking down at the display screen on the auction table.

Following the first bid, the price began to tumble, and in just ten seconds, the bid increased to 7200 billion.

However, the quotations have not stopped, but the increase is not as crazy.

After a full three minutes, the price dropped to 8003 billion yuan.

As we watched the quotations start to increase by single digits, we all knew that it was the final moment.

At this time, the hall was already noisy, but also strangely quiet.

The noise was not loud, and Wei Qingyu, the auctioneer, did not even say a word. Only the bids and countdown on the big screen were changing.

This quiet auction made Chu Fei a little uncomfortable.

However, Chu Fei was calm. When he saw that a bottle of medicine was sold for more than 13.0 billion yuan, a bright smile appeared on his face: This is the confidence that I dared to hire three 200 masters. I made a profit from ml of medicine.

Finally, the bid stopped at 8027 billion, which was the bid of Box 122. The 10-second countdown was lifted, Wei Qingyu picked up the hammer, and said, "The first auction item is finished, congratulations to Box 122."

The epiphany potion has a certain solubility in regular potion bottles, so the packaging and utensils must be made of gold."

There were 12.0 "waiters" on site who delivered the medicine to the box and completed the settlement.

At the same time, another box one meter long, eighty centimeters wide and half a meter high was brought up.

Wei Qingyu continued: "The second item for auction is a large item, 200 golden snake flowers and 13.0 medicinal materials.

Golden Snake Talk is a relatively common 13.0 medicinal material, with a market price ranging from 26 billion to 37 billion, depending on quality and market fluctuations.

The 200 golden snake flowers are all of top quality, with an estimated total market value of 8000 billion yuan.

This auction adopts a descending price auction, with a starting price of 1.2 trillion and a price reduction of 100 billion every five seconds.

The price of 14000 trillion appeared on the big screen, and a countdown began.

Chu Fei looked at the box and frowned.

Although golden snake flower is common, it is only a 13.0 medicinal herb after all. It is not easy to get 20 plants at once, let alone top-quality plants.

But the worst thing about a descending price auction is that no one knows when to bid.

This is a real psychological game, where you have to calculate the benefits, consider your competitors, and not be a fool.

If the price reduction auction turns into a competitive bidding auction, it’s fine. Everyone can wait. At worst, it will switch to the competitive bidding process.

But this kind of auction where the final word is given is the most exhausting.

Five seconds later, the price became 13900 trillion.

Another five seconds passed...

The scene was quiet, even a little depressing.

Suddenly, Chu Fei made a move and the price stopped at 13700 trillion!
The big screen shows: [No. 3-708 bids 13700 trillion]

Jiang Shumin looked at Chu Fei, opened her mouth but said nothing.

However, auctioneer Wei Qingyu smiled, her eyebrows curved, and she hammered down the final bid, "Congratulations to the friend at 3-708. This batch of golden snake flowers took the Treasure Pavilion five months to collect. Each one is nearly perfect, and the medicinal properties are almost the same.

High-quality medicinal materials can increase the success rate of medicine refining and even improve the quality of medicines.

The fact that the medicinal properties are almost the same means that mass production will have an extremely low failure rate.

In fact, if it is auctioned through bidding, the transaction price could even reach 1.5 trillion.

This auction can actually be considered a welfare benefit.”

Listening to the other party's gentle words, Chu Fei's originally unhappy mood became much better. Then Chu Fei reacted and realized that he was indeed an auctioneer. With just a few words, he dispelled his unhappiness about buying at a high price.

Regardless of whether what the other party said was true or false, Chu Fei did feel much better.

Soon a 12.0 expert delivered the medicinal materials and Chu Fei signed on the spot. The expert who ran errands asked Chu Fei if he needed to increase the deposit.

This is not letting go of any opportunity to make money, Chu Fei certainly doesn't need to. 11 bottles of epiphany potion are my deposit.

The auction proceeds in an orderly manner, with bidding and price-reducing auctions interspersed. Generally, bulk raw materials are auctioned at decreasing prices.

When three "Seven-Star Fire Lotus" were auctioned, the bid was 3 times the market price!
The Seven-Star Fire Lotus is a 14.0 medicinal material with a market price of over 180 billion, and it may not be available for purchase.

The main reason is that at this price, everyone just uses currency as the unit of value, which is actually barter. So, you don’t have to have money to buy it, you have to have the thing.

Only here at the auction can you buy it with money.

That’s right, the starting price of the three Seven-Star Fire Lotuses is 3 billion yuan, and the auction will be conducted at a decreasing price.

This time Chu Fei did not take action, but watched what others did.

The price dropped little by little, finally falling below 8000 billion.

Just when the price reached 7900 billion, the price reduction stopped and the deal was final.

Seeing this exaggerated transaction price - 14.6 times the market value, Chu Fei suddenly felt balanced.

As expected, there is no worst auction, only worse ones.

Before we knew it, the auction had gone on till late at night.

Suddenly, Wei Qingyu raised her beautiful arm, but there was a small token on her palm.

Without Wei Qingyu saying anything, there was an exclamation:
Star Order!
Chu Fei couldn't help but sit up straight. This Star Order was not in the meeting journal. (End of this chapter)
