Chapter 163: Cell Repair Liquid

Ye Feng and Pei Hong sat in the tavern. Although noisy sounds came from outside the window from time to time, it was still much quieter compared to when they were walking on the street earlier.
When the young tavern owner brought up two jars of baijiu and removed the sealing mud, its strong and rich aroma instantly filled their noses.
“Great wine!” Pei Hong couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
The young owner clearly enjoyed such praise. With a pleased expression, he filled their glasses with wine, then gestured for them to start drinking before politely stepping back.
“This is what real business is all about!” Ye Feng nodded in approval. “Rather than spending time on silly advertisements, it’s better to provide good service! I really can’t understand why those taverns are always crowded…”
“Actually, it’s not this busy every day. It gets special only during the auction period; otherwise, it’s much calmer,” explained another version of the young owner, bringing over several plates of dishes.
“Fester Planet is the second most popular planet among all the cultivation starting points in the Flowing Clouds Galaxy for auction participation, second only to Origin Planet. That’s why they always try to surpass Origin Planet and become number one. Over time, the people here have strived for this goal, turning the planet into a highly commercialized place. There are vendors everywhere, with their calls for sales echoing throughout the streets. This situation intensifies during the auction period…”
“Second most participants? It seems we’ve come to the right place!” Ye Feng said, smiling at Pei Hong sitting across from him after hearing the explanation.
“Are you here to attend the auction?” The young owner immediately understood their purpose upon hearing Ye Feng’s words.
“We’re just traveling around and checking if there’s anything we want!” Ye Feng nodded. “By the way, do you know where the auction venue is and when it starts?”
“The auction venue is easy to find. Just head north along this main road. At the end, you’ll see a large building with the words ‘Ciel Auction Venue’ written on it! Just go in through the main entrance!”
“The auction starts in two days. They say there are quite a few items this time, so it might last two days!” The young owner replied enthusiastically.
“Thanks!” Ye Feng nodded with a smile.
“Then I wish you can find what you’re looking for!” With a professional smile, the young owner left.

“Why don’t we just stay here and go check out the auction hall later?” Ye Feng said to Pei Hong.
“I have no objections. I missed the auction on Origin Star, so it’s good to go take a look this time!” Pei Hong nodded. “You’ve come all this way for this auction—what exactly do you want to buy?”
“It’s not about buying anything; it’s about selling something!” Ye Feng shook his head.
“What is it?” Pei Hong became interested immediately.
“Something similar to healing pills!” Ye Feng wasn’t planning to reveal everything.
Hearing it was a healing pill, Pei Hong shrugged helplessly. “It seems like that kind of thing isn’t very valuable!”
“Maybe so!” Ye Feng nodded indifferently without saying much. After all, an ordinary healing pill usually cost one to three medium-grade spirit crystals. He knew that his cell repair fluid could probably be sold for one medium-grade spirit crystal, which was equivalent to 12,000 second-tier domain values. Yet the cost was extremely low—only 31,000 first-tier domain values. That was more than a three-thousand-fold increase in price.
After eating their fill, the two checked in. The young owner assigned them two adjacent rooms. After settling in, they left the tavern and headed toward the auction hall.
Following the young owner’s directions and the bustling crowd, they headed north for about ten minutes until they finally saw a giant building resembling a sports stadium. At the top of the building, several large characters read “Ciel Auction Hall.”
The two walked straight toward the nearly ten-meter-wide gate.
“Sir, the auction doesn’t start until the day after tomorrow. We only accept sellers who want to commission an auction right now!” A tall woman bowed slightly to them.
“I’m here to commission an auction!” Ye Feng nodded at her.
“What items do you wish to auction?” the young woman asked, looking at Ye Feng.
“A new type of potion from the Technology Planet.” Ye Feng took out a bottle of cell repair fluid.
The woman glanced at the small bottle in Ye Feng’s hand before nodding at him. “Please follow me. We have professional appraisers for technological items.”
The woman led the two into a small room in the auction hall. “Mr. Dokot, this man says he has a new type of potion to auction. Could you spare some time to appraise it for him?”

“A new type of potion? What’s its purpose?” The man who had been using a magnifying glass to examine something finally raised his head. It was an old man with messy gray hair and reading glasses perched on his nose.
“For healing!” Ye Feng handed the bottle of potion to the old man.
The old man took the light blue liquid, glanced at Ye Feng, then removed the cap and dropped a drop into a petri dish. He examined it carefully under a microscope.
“This is a cell-repairing solution. Is it from Medicine Planet or Medik Planet? Or was it created by those madmen from Taikrolegi Planet?” It took the old man some time before he moved his eyes away from the microscope and focused on Ye Feng’s face.
“This one is from Medik Planet! What’s the difference?” Ye Feng wasn’t expecting the old man to know the names of these planets.
“Of course there’s a difference. If it’s a drug from Taikrolegi Planet, it’s usually very effective but also has severe side effects. They develop technology without considering the consequences; they’re a bunch of scientific madmen. The products they create are all kinds of strange.”
“Medicine Planet and Medik Planet are two renowned medical planets. Medicine Planet focuses on natural extraction, while Medik Planet emphasizes chemical synthesis. Although the effects are similar, the products from Medicine Planet are generally milder in effect, whereas those from Medik Planet take effect quickly.” The old man seemed somewhat annoyed that Ye Feng didn’t even know such basic facts.
“Moreover, many of Medik Planet’s potions are unfinished and cannot be used continuously. Continuous use will cause side effects! Of course, for this reason, their potions go through a refinement process. For the same potion, they might create hundreds of unfinished versions of varying degrees before achieving the perfect formula. Of course, those with severe side effects aren’t allowed to be produced publicly.”
“This one is a product of the perfect formula; there are no side effects from continuous use that cause short-term weakness.” Ye Feng pointed to the light blue liquid in the old man’s hand.
“We’ll know right away!” The old man said, dropping another drop of the potion into the petri dish. Then he continued to observe…

This process was repeated ten times. After the tenth drop of liquid was added to the petri dish and observed for a while, the old man slowly turned to look at Ye Feng. “Experiments have shown that taking it ten times within ten minutes causes no side effects—it is indeed a perfect potion. Young man, you are truly lucky. This perfect potion can rival the effects of real cultivation pills.”
“So, what price do you think a bottle could fetch?” Hearing the old man’s words, Ye Feng was secretly delighted.
