The sudden change in tone caught Zi Ji off guard. Although he looked only 40 or 50 years old, with no white hair or beard, he was already more than a thousand years old. He had a wide range of experience that ordinary people could not imagine, and had experienced a long life that ordinary people could not understand.
Therefore, he could easily see through a person's cunning mind, and he, his heart, had long been calm... However, facing the young man in front of him who was only 22 years old, dozens of times younger than him, his gaze at this moment was so sharp that he felt as if his heart and soul were pierced.
Facing Yun Che’s gaze, the words he was about to say turned into a bitter smile after a moment of hesitation: “What an incredibly sharp insight… No, rather than insight, it’s better to say… a kind of instinct, right?”
"I admit that I did have selfish motives in telling you about Xuanyuan Yufeng. But what I said just now was not false at all, and I have no intention of harming you. I was just doing you a favor, and I am also happy to see that Tianwei Sword Region has one more enemy who can be said to be 'unfathomable'."
Yun Che smiled faintly: "I can believe it. If I really felt that you had the intention to harm me, I would not have sat in front of you so uprightly."
When he first met Zi Ji three years ago, he just thought that he must be of extraordinary status. Now, the more he talked to him, the more he felt that this person must be unfathomable in terms of strength and status. He stopped talking nonsense, stretched out his hand, took out the purple-glowing Xuanbi card, and slapped it in front of Zi Ji: "I have bothered Senior Zi for a long time today, so let's talk business. I need 90,000 catties of Purgatory Rock, 300 catties of Burning Demon Vine over 90 years old, less than 90 years old, more than 60 years old is also OK, but the quantity must be doubled, and 6,000 Rakshasa Heart-Destroying Tang, 12,000 Skeletons, 6,000 Soul-Withering Grass..."
Yun Che spoke without pause, and he listed a total of forty-nine materials. If he had mentioned just one of them, Zi Ji would not have felt anything strange, but the forty-nine materials Yun Che mentioned were all extremely violent and fierce! Each of them contained extremely high-density energy, and because of this, they were all extremely dangerous... For example, a three-inch long section of the Burning Demon Vine, once the corrosive power in it was released, could destroy a Tianxuan realm expert in a few breaths.
The reason why the Purple Veined Heavenly Crystal is precious is not only because it contains extremely high density and level of power, but also because its power is very gentle and can be easily controlled, guided, transformed and used for various purposes, or directly absorbed. Although the things that Yun Che called out also have extremely high energy, they are at the other extreme. Their power attributes are different, but the same thing is that they are extremely violent and extremely difficult to control!
However, due to their "violent" properties, one or several of them can occasionally be used to make elixirs to break through bottlenecks... but the success rate is undoubtedly shockingly low, and is accompanied by considerable risks.
But once it succeeds... the elixir that can break through the bottleneck will undoubtedly be a treasure of sky-high price!
Therefore, although these forty-nine materials have extremely high power levels, the demand is very small, and the price is naturally not that expensive... After all, even the most senior alchemist in the entire Tianxuan Continent would not dare to say that he can perfectly control any of them.
If you want to control and master several or even dozens of them at the same time... it may take decades to succeed.
Yun Che not only wanted these forty-nine kinds of violent things that were frightening just to hear, but the quantity was also astonishingly large.
The three girls beside him were dumbfounded.
Zi Ji closed his eyes, and a small mysterious formation appeared on his slightly raised right hand. After a while, the mysterious formation disappeared, and he opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "All of these forty-nine materials are in stock in Black Moon, but each one is far from what you need. It will take some time to gather them all."
"How long will it take?" Yun Che asked calmly. He knew very well that the quantity he wanted was a bit huge, and it would be impossible to buy it all at any other Chamber of Commerce, but the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce should not let him down... as long as he could afford enough Xuanbi.
"The Purgatory Rock needs to be collected from the bottom of the lava. If it is 90,000 kilograms, it will take about 15 days. As for the others, they can be collected within five days." Zi Ji replied.
“Okay!” Yun Che nodded: “Then I will come back in fifteen days. Please ask Senior Zi to quote the price. To reassure you, Black Moon, I will pay half in advance.”
Although he said it with great confidence, Yun Che was still a little nervous... He had more than nine million purple profound coins on him, which was enough to buy a small city. These materials were not ridiculously expensive, and although the quantity was a bit large... he should still be able to afford it, right?
If you can't afford it... you can consider getting some money from the Phoenix Sect.
Zi Ji didn't bother to argue with him about money, and nodded, "That's the best. Although these are not things that are worth a fortune, they are also very valuable. The total price is estimated to be 8 million... Zixuan coins! The deposit is as you said, so pay half for now."
Eight million, in purple profound coins, was undoubtedly an astronomical figure. Even for the Black Moon Association, it was a large sum. Yun Che secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and neatly pushed the profound coin card to Zi Ji, paying four million purple profound coins.
After paying the final payment, the tens of millions of purple coins extorted from Xiao Zong were basically gone...
Yun Che was groaning in his heart… He had originally thought that this huge sum of money was enough to squander for several lifetimes, but he had never expected… Alas! This was going to bankrupt him.
After the deposit was paid, Zi Ji hesitated for a short and difficult moment before finally asking, "Yun Che, the Black Moon Merchant Guild never asks about the purpose of the items purchased by our distinguished guests. But I am really curious. These forty-nine items are all extremely violent and fierce, and the quantity is so astonishing. What exactly are you going to use them for? Haha, if it is convenient, I hope you can help me solve my doubts. If it is not convenient, I will just laugh it off. I will not ask any more questions, let alone investigate secretly."
Yun Che smiled, flipped his palm, and placed a dark brown round bead on the stone table. Suddenly, a strong and pungent medicinal fragrance dissipated at an alarming speed, causing the three girls beside him to frown at the same time.
"Senior Zi, please help me determine what price this pill can be sold for if I entrust it to the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce for auction."
"This is..." Zi Ji's eyes were immediately focused on it. Just by the aura, he could tell that this was no ordinary elixir. He stretched out two fingers, carefully picked it up, and put it in front of his eyes. It was very translucent and clear. Zi Ji's eyes could see through it and see Yun Che's face clearly. What shocked Zi Ji the most was the aura it exuded. After a brief observation, he began to concentrate his mind and slowly infiltrated his profound energy into it...
In just a split second, Zi Ji raised his head sharply and uttered a voice of deep surprise: "This is actually a precious elixir that can break through a very high bottleneck!!"
"And those below Tyrant Xuan can break through directly!!"
"Below Tyrant Xuan, directly break through", these words, Zi Ji shouted with great shock. Not to mention ordinary Xuan practitioners, even the masters of the four holy places would be shocked when they heard these words.
Because what this sentence clearly means is... this pill can make people below Tyrant Xuan... no longer have bottlenecks!
This pill was the "Overlord Pill" from the Illusory Demon Realm, which could allow a peak Emperor Profound Realm Xuan practitioner to directly break through the bottleneck and become an Overlord. The difference was that the Overlord Pill from the Illusory Demon Realm was made from thirty-six kinds of materials, while the one Yun Che took out was made from forty-nine kinds of materials, and the quality was flawless. In terms of medicinal power, it was simply incomparable to the Overlord Pill made by the Illusory Demon Royal Family.
“Senior Zi is indeed a discerning person.” Yun Che praised sincerely. With such a simple test, he was able to accurately describe the effect of the Overlord Pill, which was definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people: “Senior Zi, please tell me what price it can be sold for?”
Zi Ji’s mind was completely attracted by the Overlord Pill at this moment. As his profound force became deeper and deeper, his face, which had been calm all along, showed an increasingly obvious look of shock. After being silent for more than ten breaths, he slowly put down the Overlord Pill. Then he looked at Yun Che and shook his head slowly: “In my life, I have come into contact with countless elixirs and rare treasures. I have always been able to identify their authenticity and value as soon as I got my hands on them… But the value of this precious pill is hard for me to estimate.”
"The pills that can break through the bottleneck must have extremely strong medicinal properties. Therefore, it is not only extremely difficult to refine, but also the risk of taking it is extremely high... The higher the level of the bottleneck that can be broken, the more difficult it is to refine, and the higher the risk. A pill that can break through the Tianxuan bottleneck and has a medium risk is a priceless treasure even in the four major sacred places, and will only be used for the most core young disciples. And this precious pill..."
Zi Ji was so excited when he spoke: "The medicinal power contained in it is mysterious, complex, and extremely domineering, and there are dozens of auras. Just combining them should be as difficult as ascending to heaven. What's more amazing is that after the fusion of these dozens of domineering medicinal powers, the reaction to external forces is extremely docile and easy to control. With the profound power of the Tyrant Profound Realm, it can be easily guided. A profound practitioner who has reached the peak of the King Profound Realm and is stuck at a bottleneck can achieve the Hegemon in just one or two days after swallowing this pill. Unless involved by external forces, there is almost no possibility of failure! And the whole process is risk-free, there is no need to worry about the medicinal power going out of control and backlashing."
"What's even more amazing is that the medicinal energy is so pure, it's simply flawless. I have just checked it several times, but I can't find any impurities! This level of precious pill is so pure. I have lived for more than a thousand years, but this is the only time I have seen such a thing."
Yun Che did not think much of Zi Ji's generous praise and exclamation. After all, this Overlord Pill was made by him, and he knew its medicinal power and purity better than anyone else. He was at most surprised that Zi Ji was so proficient in elixirs. However, the three girls beside him all had their beautiful eyes wide open, and their lips were wide open for a long time...
Because it was the first time that they heard such "exaggerated" words of praise from Zi Ji.
“Since this pill has received such high praise from Senior Zi, if we sell it to the Four Holy Lands, can one pill be exchanged for three taels of Purple Veined Divine Crystal?” Yun Che asked very seriously.
In the entire Tianxuan Continent, only forces like the Four Sacred Lands, which have accumulated thousands of years of heritage, can produce such divine objects as the Purple Veined Divine Crystal in large quantities. Some of those ordinary sects have probably never even seen what the Purple Veined Divine Crystal looks like.
“Haha,” Zi Ji smiled, then shook his head and slowly extended two fingers towards Yun Che.
“Oh, about two taels?” Yun Che nodded slowly. However, he was not disappointed at all. After all, Purple Veined Divine Crystals were too rare and precious. For him, a Overlord Pill, which was not expensive, could be exchanged for as much as two taels of Purple Veined Divine Crystals, which was already an extremely cost-effective deal.
"No!" Zi Ji still shook his head: "It's two pounds!"
“Huh?” Yun Che was stunned.
"You underestimate the value and rarity of this kind of elixir that can break through the bottleneck." Zi Ji sighed and said: "The Purple Veined Divine Crystal is indeed extremely precious. It can increase a person's profound strength in a short period of time. But if the bottleneck is stuck and cannot be broken through, no matter how many Purple Veined Divine Crystals there are, it will be in vain. In places like the Four Great Sacred Grounds, the bottleneck below the Wangxuan realm can be forcibly broken through by the power of several emperors, but when it comes to the peak of Wangxuan, the bottleneck leading to the Tyrant Xuan realm, even the power of the emperor cannot help break through. In the past ten thousand years, how many talented people in the holy grounds have tried their best to break through the Wangxuan bottleneck as soon as possible. After that, while desperately cultivating and comprehending, they were also desperately looking for precious pills that could help them break through. Precious pills that could break through the bottleneck of Wangxuan were rare in the world, and those who were found by chance would definitely be given to the most core disciples of the sect... and such precious pills were often accompanied by uncontrollable risks. I don’t know how many young disciples with high status and talent were backlashed by such pills, their meridians were damaged, their talents were damaged, and their Xuan Dao was completely destroyed. And those who didn’t want to, or didn’t dare to seek help from external forces, didn’t know how many stayed at the bottleneck of Wangxuan for several years, or even more than ten years, unable to break through... and those who finally broke through were already far behind others and became mediocre. "
"And the one in my hand can not only directly break through the bottleneck of Emperor Xuan, but also has no risk... It can even play a significant role in breaking through the bottleneck of Tyrant Xuan."
Even though he had already given too many words of praise, Zi Ji's eyes were still full of wonder. "If the Four Sacred Grounds knew about this pill, it would definitely cause an uproar, and they would not hesitate to spend a huge price to fight for it. Two kilograms of Purple Vein Divine Crystal is still the most conservative estimate... After all, if this precious pill is obtained, a younger generation can break through to the Overlord in the shortest time, and give the sect an additional powerful pillar in the future."
“Oh…” Yun Che’s eyes became vague… Oh my god, this is going to happen!
“Yun Che, can you please tell me what this precious pill is called? And which expert refined it?” Zi Ji asked eagerly. He was very familiar with the highest-level alchemists in the Profound Sky Continent. But among these people, no one could have the ability to refine such a precious pill… If there was, he would have known it long ago.
“Oh, this pill was made casually, so it has not been named yet.” Yun Che said calmly. He couldn’t say the name “Bahuang Pill” because if there were records of “Bahuang Pill” in the Illusory Demon Realm in Tianxuan Continent, it would not be fun. In addition, its medicinal effect is far higher than that of Bahuang Pill, so it is no problem not to call it Bahuang Pill.
“Haha,” Zi Ji shook his head and laughed, “I don’t believe this. Such a precious pill, getting one is enough to shock the world, how could it be made casually? Since it is inconvenient to tell you, I will not ask again.”
Yun Che glanced at him, tilted his mouth, and flipped his left hand...
With a series of loud “clattering” sounds, Yun Che threw more than thirty Overlord Pills onto the stone table, as casually as if he were throwing a handful of candy beans.
