"I think you all already know what it is. That's right, it's an ancient divine medicine that a young friend cut out of a stone!"
The auction hall was in an uproar, with many people standing up. They had come for this auction because of this miraculous herb.
Lin Yi also turned his gaze to the auction stage.
The white-haired old man on the platform opened the white jade cauldron and took out the divine medicine. Although it was sealed in the source of ice and snow, a faint fragrance still wafted out, making people feel refreshed.
The pale blue rhizome shimmers with a crystalline luster, and the milky white medicinal pedicels are no different from human feet, only much smaller.
"It's been too long, and no one knows the name of this humanoid divine herb anymore. However, even in today's world, it would be difficult to find such a humanoid divine herb anywhere in the Great Wilderness. Its guaranteed price is 150,000 jin of source material!"
The miraculous medicine is indeed an extremely rare treasure, but it is far too incomplete. However, the guaranteed price is already set at 150,000 jin of raw material, so it's obvious that the final price will be outrageous.
After a brief silence, many people are demanding high prices.
"160,000 jin of Yuan!"
"180,000 jin of ore!"
"Two hundred and twenty thousand catties of raw materials!"
...
Several old monks from the Western Desert, with radiant hair on the back of their heads, directly pushed the price up to 250,000 jin of raw materials.
Meanwhile, several mysterious figures from Zhongzhou, wearing dragon crowns, added another 50,000 jin of source material in one go!
"Three hundred and fifty thousand catties of Yuan!"
Lin Yi raised the price by another 50,000 jin of source material in one go. He originally had 360,000 jin of source material, but he had spent some of it in the past few days, and with the previous auction of the Wushi Emperor Jade, he had taken it all out.
Divine herbs are even rarer than king herbs. Lin Yi knew that this incomplete humanoid divine herb was cut by Ye Fan from the top-tier stone garden of Dao Yi Stone Workshop, but he didn't remember exactly which stone it was. So he could only wait for the auction to begin.
In addition, Lin Yi remembered that there was a seed of the Qilin Divine Medicine in a stone archway in a certain holy place in the Holy City, but he couldn't find it.
Before a cultivator has cultivated their primordial spirit, most of their memories are stored in their brain. After Lin Yi was reincarnated, even if he were to recall his memories, he could not remember many details.
He could recall every single detail of his life from childhood to adulthood in this life, down to the smallest detail. But he couldn't do that in his previous life.
After two consecutive crazy bidding increases of 50,000 jin of raw material, the auction hall fell silent.
Even some big shots changed color; when faced with someone with such a grand gesture, no one could do anything about it.
“Three hundred and sixty thousand catties of ore!” an old monk from the Western Desert exclaimed.
"Three hundred and seventy thousand catties of raw materials!" A middle-aged man from the Great Xia Dynasty of Zhongzhou calmly quoted a price.
Lin Yi reluctantly withdrew from the competition. Just then, he suddenly received a telepathic message from an emperor of the Ancient Hua Dynasty: "Mr. Qingxuan, I am willing to bid for the humanoid divine medicine. May I exchange it for a king of herbs?"
Lin Yi readily agreed.
Although the humanoid divine medicine is severely flawed, it is still a level above the Medicine King.
Although a dozen or twenty king-sized medicinal herbs are equivalent to one immortal herb, it's like comparing a pound of iron to a pound of cotton—the difference in quality can never be bridged.
The elixir of immortality could allow ancient emperors to live a second life, but no amount of medicine could achieve such an effect.
In the end, the emperor of the Ancient Hua Dynasty won the bid for the humanoid divine medicine at the astronomical price of 410,000 jin of source.
After the auction, Lin Yi and the people from the Ancient Hua Dynasty completed the transaction. The four important figures, wearing dragon crowns and exuding an air of grandeur, strode away together.
Upon seeing them emerge, everyone parted to make way, deeply wary, for these must be terrifyingly powerful figures advancing into Purple Mountain.
Subsequently, several old monks from the Western Desert also left the Heavenly Demon Palace. Looking at the divine halos behind their heads, everyone was extremely shocked.
People knew that the third attack on Zishan was about to begin.
Lin Yi did not rush to leave. He opened the Illusionary Realm, then took out the Boundless Emperor Jade, and activated the Dao Seal. Instantly, he saw all the lines of cause and effect.
He first saw two lines of cause and effect extending from Ye Fan, who had just stepped out of the Heavenly Demon Palace, which represented two pieces of imperial jade.
One line of cause and effect extends southward, two others extend westward, and the last, identical line of cause and effect is located in a stone archway in the holy city.
"One, two, three... why are there only seven threads of cause and effect? Where did the eighth piece of the Imperial Jade go?"
Lin Yi searched carefully, but ultimately failed to find the eighth thread of cause and effect.
"Either the cause and effect have been severed by someone, or the Emperor Jade has been completely destroyed. In either case, it is clear that someone, or other ancient clans, holy spirits, etc., do not want the legacy of the Great Emperor Wushi to be born."
At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? A single glimpse of the Beginningless Dao reveals all emptiness!
There are already too many people like that.
If a second one were to occur, it would be the most terrifying nightmare for some people.
Lin Yi put away the Emperor Jade, left the Heavenly Demon Palace, and went to a small stone workshop to obtain the second Emperor Jade.
Lin Yi pondered the matter of the Beginningless Scripture. Heaven and earth returned to nothingness, and all things originated from the beginning. This was the most important piece of the puzzle to complete his Great Dao.
In Lin Yi's deductions, he should have the Nine Primordial Seals, with the first three being the most important.
The "Wuji Seal" represents "nothingness" and is the foundation for attaining enlightenment.
The "Tao Yi Yin" is the cause of all results. Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things, and together with the initial cause, all results are produced, and each result then evolves into other causes and effects.
The third seal is the "Seal of Creation," representing the creation of heaven and earth, from "nothingness" to "existence."
Without the Heaven-Opening Seal, the Dao Seal is like water without a source, a tree without roots. The Limitless Seal can only be "nothingness," a state of utter chaos.
