All of a sudden, an extremely strong medicinal fragrance filled the air. Although it was only the scent of spiritual medicine, it was so fierce and overbearing that it was like the profound energy released by a powerful Xuandao master with all his strength. The entire seventh floor of the huge Black Moon Chamber of Commerce seemed to be completely filled with this breath in just a short moment.
Such an aura was enough to let Zi Ji know what these pills were. However, after a long period of astonishment, he still couldn't believe it and picked up one. His palm trembled, and he picked up another one. His palm trembled again, and he picked up the third one, the fourth one...
There were a total of thirty-three dark red pills...all of them were exactly the same as the first one Yun Che took out!
Moreover, the quality of these pills has all reached the ultimate 100%!
This kind of effect, this level of elixir, is still 100% pure! He just said with a smile that "one elixir of this level is enough to shock the world", which is absolutely not an exaggeration.
And Yun Che actually threw out more than thirty of them with one hand... and Yun Che's nonchalant movements and expression were as casual as if he was just throwing out a handful of jelly beans!
Zi Ji was completely shocked, and his heart felt like a huge wave was surging.
In the entire Tianxuan Continent, no one can compare to Zi Ji in terms of authority in the knowledge and judgment of elixirs. However, looking at the thirty-three dark red elixirs in front of him, he felt as if he were in a dream. After a long while, he suddenly thought of someone and exclaimed, "Could it be that these precious elixirs were all made by the master?"
Yun Che glanced sideways and nodded without any hesitation: “Of course.”
“So… that’s how it is…” Zi Ji finally felt relieved, his face filled with deep respect and amazement: “I was really shocked just now… No wonder, it turned out to be made by Master. In this world, only a supreme master like Master who transcends the mundane world can have such an amazing ability.”
Rumors were only rumors, but by personally witnessing and touching these thirty-plus precious pills, he also personally learned in this way how powerful Yun Che's "master" had become.
“Oh, right,” Yun Che said casually, “The materials that I just entrusted your Black Moon Chamber of Commerce to collect are all for Master to use in refining medicine. Well, this is the kind… I plan to ask Master to help me refine three thousand pills.”
"Three... three... three thousand!!" This old man, who had been elegant for hundreds of years, actually bit his tongue hard.
“Well,” Yun Che nodded calmly, and said calmly, “I am now the Palace Master of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, so I am naturally responsible for the entire Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace. Although no one dares to provoke Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace in Blue Wind Country, it is still too weak in the scope of Profound Sky Continent. Not only has it been bullied to the point of being bullied, but the Grand Palace Master and the Former Palace Master have also been killed one after another. Therefore, I have no choice but to use some extraordinary means to improve the strength of all Frozen Cloud disciples, so as to prevent them from being bullied by some despicable people.”
“However, because their profound strength is still too low and they cannot bear the power of high-level medicine, my master said that he could only refine low-level pills for them to improve their strength for the time being, so that I can also eat them for fun when I have nothing to do, and I can also use them to exchange for profound coins, purple crystals, etc… Oh, I didn’t expect that I could actually exchange for up to two kilograms of purple vein divine crystals, tsk tsk!”
Zi Ji: "~! @#￥%..."
“Three thousand pills”… “Low-grade pills”… “Just eat them for fun”… Zi Ji’s cognition that had been held on to for a thousand years was destroyed in an instant, and every nerve in his body began to twitch uncontrollably.
He had just carefully explored the medicinal power of the Overlord Pill. He knew very clearly that if three thousand... no, let alone three thousand, even if three hundred of these pills flowed into the four holy places, the structure of the four holy places would change dramatically by the next generation! And if only one of the holy places obtained them, then the balance of the four holy places would be completely broken. The holy place that possessed these precious pills would completely crush the other three holy places and become a transcendent existence that would be at the top!
And three thousand...
This extremely terrifying number brought an unparalleled shock to Zi Ji.
And judging from Yun Che’s description… as long as the materials were sufficient, his terrifying master would refine as many as he wanted! And the precious pill that he mentioned, “one pill is enough to shock the world”, was just a “low-grade pill” in the hands of his master! !
Yun Che had been looking directly at Zi Ji, and was extremely satisfied with his reaction. He smiled and said, “However, Senior Zi, please rest assured. Although these medicinal pills are ordinary to me, I am not so naive as to not understand what they mean to other profound practitioners… especially to powerful sects like the Four Sacred Grounds. Therefore, most of them will only be used in Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace. As for those used to exchange for Purple Vein Divine Crystals…”
Yun Che slowly stretched out three fingers: “Only thirty! Not one more! Because no matter how precious something is, it won’t be fun if there are too many.”
Zi Ji silently looked at the three fingers that Yun Che stretched out. After a long while, he exhaled and nodded slowly. “Although the rumors about the master came from the Sun Moon Divine Palace, I still only believed it 70% and still had 30% doubts… But now, I really can’t doubt it at all. The realm of the master is probably to have seized the fortune of heaven and earth and invaded the mysteries of the sun and moon. It is beyond the comprehension of mortals like us… The Ice Cloud Immortal Palace of Cangfeng Country was originally just a very small female sect, but with great luck and the help of the master, I’m afraid it won’t be long before it will become the fifth holy land.”
“Senior Zi, you are exaggerating. All I want is enough power to protect myself, so that I won’t be spied on or bullied by others. I have never thought of becoming a holy place. And the word ‘holy place’, huh…” Yun Che laughed sarcastically, “It may not be that holy. It may even be very dirty. It is better for me, Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, to never get involved in it.”
"Ah..." Zi Ji sighed briefly for some reason, then said calmly: "I was just worried that if a large number of these precious pills flowed into the Tianxuan Continent, it would cause earth-shaking shocks and changes in the Xuan Realm. If there were only... 30 pills, it would be okay."
There was an obvious pause in Zi Ji's voice, because one of these precious pills was enough to cause the Holy Land to shake, and the word "only" should not be used to refer to thirty pills.
“Okay.” Yun Che nodded immediately, and then with a wave of his arm, he collected all the thirty-three Overlord Pills on the stone table into the Sky Poison Pearl: “When the time is right, I will come to Senior Zi to discuss the auction. As for the other thirty pills… please keep it a secret for me.”
"Haha," Zi Ji smiled, "You are definitely not a person who speaks without restraint. You just spoke completely frankly in front of me... I have lived for more than a thousand years, so I am naturally not a person who does not know what is good for me."
"The Black Moon Chamber of Commerce has stood firm for thousands of years with its 'trust', and Senior Zi is the core pillar of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, so I can speak freely in front of Senior Zi without worrying about leaking it to others. By the way, I haven't asked how much the commission for the Black Moon auction is?"
Just as Zi Ji was about to speak, he paused for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "The auction commission of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce is much higher than that of ordinary chambers of commerce. But if you can agree to one request of this old man, then I will not take a penny from the commission of the auction of thirty precious pills."
"Oh? What is the 'request' that Senior Zi is talking about?"
"It's very simple." Zi Ji's eyes were calm but slightly burning. "Sell ten of these precious pills to my Black Moon Chamber of Commerce. The price will be based on what I determined before. For ten precious pills, I will immediately give you twenty kilograms of Purple Vein Divine Crystals!"
Purple Vein Divine Crystal… 20 Jin!!
This is definitely an astronomical figure that could make even a powerful mystic faint from shock.
Even for the four holy places, namely the Royal Holy Land, the Supreme Ocean Palace, the Sun and Moon Palace, and the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain, it would take at least one or two hundred years, or even two or three hundred years, to accumulate twenty kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystals.
One Overlord Pill could be exchanged for two kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystals… This was Zi Ji’s guess, but during the official auction, it might be less than two kilograms, or it might be more than two kilograms… and considering how precious Purple Veined Divine Crystals were, at least Yun Che felt that it was more likely to be less than two kilograms. The Black Moon Merchants Association directly exchanged 20 kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystals for ten, which not only exempted them from the high commission, but also made no loss in terms of price… and according to Zi Ji’s words, it seemed that they would give 20 kilograms of Purple Veined Divine Crystals on the spot.
Yun Che’s heart was slightly disturbed, but his face remained calm. He did not answer immediately. After hesitating for a while, he nodded slightly: “Okay. But, Senior Zi must also agree to one request of mine.”
"Oh?" Zi Ji looked up at him.
“It’s very simple…” Yun Che used the same tone as Zi Ji just now: “That is to tell this junior… where is the place where the Netherworld Udumbara Flower appeared 1,300 years ago?”
"This..." Zi Ji was stunned, and then shook his head directly: "It's not that I don't want to, but this place is very important, I really can't tell you."
“Oh, if that’s the case, then I naturally won’t embarrass Senior Zi.” Yun Che did not show any disappointment: “Then Senior Zi, there’s no need to mention the matter of waiving the commission. Even if your Chamber of Commerce wants a 20% commission, I can afford it.”
“…” Zi Ji was silent. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade Yun Che, but seeing Yun Che’s calm face and eyes as deep as black holes, he swallowed back all the words of persuasion that he had quickly prepared, and finally let out a long sigh: “The Netherworld Udumbara Flower is extremely yin, evil, and evil. It is the most terrifying flower in the records. If you just get close to this flower, your body will be invaded by the yin energy and your soul will be damaged. At the very least, you will faint for a long time, and at the worst, you will become a living dead. If your profound strength is slightly lower, you will lose your life directly. Apart from this, even with my knowledge, I have never heard of any use for this thing. Why are you so persistent in wanting to find this flower?”
“I have my own use for it.” After a brief pause, Yun Che added, “And it’s an extremely important use… I must find one! Even if it costs a huge price!”
“……” Zi Ji closed his eyes and didn’t speak for a long time.
The seventh floor of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce fell silent.
“He is transmitting sound through Ningxuan.” Jasmine suddenly spoke.
“Hmm…” Yun Che responded softly: “Could it be that the message was sent to the mysterious president of the Black Moon Merchant Guild… Oh! It was transmitted using the Condensed Profound Sound Transmission instead of the Sound Transmission Note. So, the Black Moon Guild President… is nearby?”
The silence lasted for nearly a hundred breaths before Zi Ji slowly opened his eyes. Yun Che did not speak to break the silence, but just stared at him.
"That is a place... far more terrifying than you can imagine." Zi Ji said slowly, "You can only enter once every five hundred years. Moreover, even a powerful emperor cannot stay in there for more than a quarter of an hour, otherwise you will die or be crippled!"
Zi Ji’s words made Yun Che look surprised: “Is there such a place in the Profound Sky Continent?”
"...To be precise, that place is not in the Profound Tian Continent." Zi Ji said.
“……?” Yun Che was even more stunned.
"Besides, since you are trying your best to find the Netherworld Udumbara Flower, you should also know that it blooms only once every 24 years and withers after three days. Even if you really enter that place, the time you can stay there will be extremely short... The possibility that there is really a Netherworld Udumbara Flower there and it happens to be in full bloom is so slim that it is basically equivalent to zero!"
"After that, you will have to wait a full five hundred years before you can enter again."
"Besides, there is an extremely terrifying existence lurking in there... With your current strength, entering there would be tantamount to seeking death."
Zi Ji's words were more horrifying than the last, but Yun Che could tell that none of his words were false or alarmist. Zi Ji looked at Yun Che with a dissuading look: "So, do you still insist on knowing that place?"
Yun Che said without hesitation: “Senior Zi, please tell me.”
Although he had guessed this result, Zi Ji still gave a helpless bitter smile. He raised his head slightly and said in an erratic tone: "That place is called 'Moon Killing Devil Cave'."
“The… Moon… Demon… Cave…” Yun Che muttered softly… He searched through his own memories, and even through the memories of Ye Ziyi and Feng Huwei, but he had never heard of or seen this name anywhere.
