Rear seat area.
Lu Ziling held the Blazing Cloud Sword, now sheathed, and solemnly presented it to Ning Wan'er: "Wan'er, give this sword to your senior brother in your own name."
Ning Wan'er's expression hardened slightly, and she asked in confusion, "Senior Sister Lu, we pooled our resources to bid on this sword together, so why is it being given to Senior Brother in my name alone?"
Lu Ziling looked at Chi Yuan's position and sighed softly, "Senior Brother's main concern is you. If you can resolve his inner conflict, he will most likely forgive us."
"Wan'er, you must deliver this sword to your senior brother. There's not much we can do for him, but if he won't even accept this, then we..."
Su Ningyan hesitated, her eyes filled with worry.
Ning Wan'er took the Blazing Cloud Sword with both hands, feeling its weight. She hugged it tightly to her chest and nodded firmly, saying, "Yes! Senior Sister Lu, Senior Sister Su, Wan'er will definitely deliver it to Senior Brother!"
...
After leaving the inner area, Chi Yuan and the others arrived at the outer hall.
You Rong Hanyou was about to lead Chi Yuan up the stairs on the side of the hall to the second floor of the auction house where You Rong Qingyan was.
Just then, a burly figure rushed forward and blocked their way: "Young Master Fufeng, please wait!"
The visitor was Kui Meng.
Rong Xinya looked coldly at Kui Meng, frowning as she said, "Kui Meng, you've already lost to Young Master Fufeng, what else do you want to do?"
"Miss Xinya, please don't misunderstand, I meant no harm."
Kui Meng smiled ingratiatingly, then said sincerely to Chi Yuan, "Young Master Fufeng, I've come to you today to discuss whether you can sell me that Purple Essence Dao Spirit Pill. You can name your price, or if you have anything of equal value that you need, I can exchange it with you. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Chi Yuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment before saying, "I do intend to dispose of this pill. If you can provide two kinds of medicinal herbs that I need, I will exchange this pill for you."
"Oh? May I ask what medicinal herbs Young Master Fufeng requires?"
Kui Meng quickly asked.
"All of them are fifth-grade spiritual herbs: Golden Geng Broken Mountain Bamboo, Dragon Beard Vine, Water Orchid, and Burial Ground Poria King."
When Kui Meng heard the names of the medicinal herbs Chi Yuan mentioned, his eyes lit up for a moment, but then he looked troubled: "Young Master Fu Feng, I do have this Dragon Beard Vine, but I have never obtained the other three. I wonder if it would be possible to exchange them for other Grade 5 medicinal herbs?"
"Okay."
Chi Yuan readily agreed. He was already quite satisfied with getting one plant in exchange, and there was no need to insist on two. Other grade-five spiritual herbs might still have their uses in the future.
Kui Meng's face lit up with joy. He immediately took out a dark green vine shaped like a dragon's whisker, wrapped in a spirit-sealing crystal. It was the Dragon Whiskers Vine. At the same time, he also took out another fifth-grade low-level spiritual medicine, the Purple Lotus Heart, whose spiritual power was also sealed by the spirit-sealing crystal, and presented it to Chi Yuan.
At this moment, Chi Yuan also took out a jade bottle, gave it to Kui Meng, and then put the two spiritual herbs into his Qiankun bag.
"Thank you very much, Young Master Fufeng. I'll take my leave now!"
Kui Meng accepted the jade bottle as if it were a priceless treasure, bowed to Chi Yuan, and then left the auction house in a hurry.
"Is the young master preparing to refine a fifth-grade elixir?"
Rong Xinya's bright eyes rippled, and she gazed intently at Chi Yuan.
"We have such plans, but it's too early to say."
Chi Yuan replied that with his current cultivation level, refining fifth-grade pills was really too much of a stretch. He planned to first obtain the follow-up techniques of the Burning Heaven Refining Void Technique and raise his cultivation level by a few ranks before refining them, so as not to waste the medicinal materials.
Rong Xinya nodded slightly and did not ask any further questions, but secretly noted down the medicinal materials that Chi Yuan needed.
Wenren Bingying also memorized the medicinal herbs that Chi Yuan needed, planning to use her family's resources to help Chi Yuan collect them when she returned. In any case, Chi Yuan would still need to help her refine pills, so she could use these medicinal herbs to offset the cost of spirit stones, and she wouldn't be afraid that Chi Yuan would not accept her kindness.
...
Second floor of the auction hall.
In a spacious and elegant room, Rong Qingyan, dressed in a magnificent long dress, with a phoenix hairpin in her hair, her eyebrows delicate and arched, and her slightly slanted gaze, exuded a natural charm and beauty that was beyond compare.
She stood by the window, gazing at the koi swimming in the clear pond below, her luscious red lips curving into a seductive smile: "This lad probably has a big secret."
A first-level Spirit King's cultivation, whether it's possessing the combat power of a sixth or seventh-level Spirit King, the alchemy skills to refine high-grade fourth-rank pills, or even the ability to subdue a spirit fire, are all things that are unimaginable to ordinary people. If you pick one of them out, only a monstrous genius could achieve it.
However, Chi Yuan possesses all three at the same time!
More importantly, Chi Yuan may have had his cultivation crippled three years ago. If that is true, then everything Chi Yuan possesses now was acquired in those short three years!
You Rongqingyan considered herself arrogant, but even with her discerning eye, she had to admit that Chi Yuan was simply too extraordinary.
This has transcended the realm of mere prodigy; it is a legend!
Only legendary figures with great fortune and destiny can achieve such extraordinary accomplishments.
Thinking of this, You Rongqingyan had to admit that she had underestimated Chi Yuan back then. Now it seemed that Chi Yuan not only had a chance to reach the Saint Rank, but he could even reach the legendary Emperor Rank. No wonder Chi Yuan was unmoved by the conditions she proposed. He probably didn't care at all.
I wonder what secrets he holds?
A look of curiosity welled up in You Rong Qingyan's eyes as she wanted to see what it was that made this person, who was likely to become a legend, so successful.
However, she immediately nipped the idea in the bud.
If she were just an ordinary Spirit Sect member with little knowledge and experience, she might actually try to find out more or even try to seize the opportunity from the other party.
