After selecting the immortal herbs, Chen Tianwen immediately began refining them within the spiritual energy space.
Fortunately, Chen Tianwen has now mastered the Law of Fire; otherwise, it would probably have taken him a whole day and night to refine just the few elixirs he had chosen!
However, Chen Tianwen only took five hours to refine all the prepared immortal herbs and finally refined three top-grade immortal pills.
Chen Tianwen was very confident in the three types of elixirs he had chosen to refine. They were all essential elixirs for immortals. Although they were only first- or second-grade pills, they were all top-quality and he was not worried about selling them for a good price.
Although the immortals generally do not leave the city at night, the city is indeed brightly lit and very lively.
Immortals don't need to sleep; when they're tired, they can recover simply by meditating and regulating their breathing!
Immortals who have finished their cultivation often choose to party all night long.
So when Chen Tianwen stepped out of the spiritual energy space, Bu Huo City was still bustling with activity.
Chen Tianwen headed straight for the White Moon Merchant Guild. The auction was starting tomorrow, and if he could sell the elixirs today, he wouldn't be in such a rush tomorrow.
As soon as Chen Tianwen arrived at the entrance of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce, he was shocked by its prosperity!
The White Moon Merchant Guild is located on the most bustling street in Bu Huo City, a place where land is incredibly valuable. However, the White Moon Merchant Guild occupies a vast area, with the four characters "White Moon Merchant Guild" alone standing over ten feet tall, and the plaque faintly exuding Daoist charm.
Even the signboard is a celestial artifact; the White Moon Merchant Guild is truly wealthy and powerful!
The massive gate, made of some unknown material, appeared resplendent in gold.
Chen Tianwen sensed that the two guards from the sect had also reached the Celestial Immortal level!
After traveling for the past few days, Chen Tianwen also learned that it was very difficult to see Golden Immortal experts in this Changtang Domain. These Golden Immortal experts were all the backbone of their respective sects and forces!
Even a Celestial Immortal-level expert would only be treated as an inner disciple in any sect!
However, in this White Moon Merchant Guild, even Celestial Immortals are merely guards at the entrance.
Chen Tianwen didn't linger at the entrance and stepped into the White Moon Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as he entered, Chen Tianwen discovered that there was a different space here. From the outside, the White Moon Chamber of Commerce was already very big and magnificent, but after entering, Chen Tianwen felt as if he had entered another small world.
It seems that the entire White Moon Merchant Guild building is a spatial artifact!
Although this space is not as vast as the spiritual energy space of the Creation Cauldron, it should be noted that this is only a branch of the Bright Moon Merchant Guild.
Spatial artifacts are extremely rare. You must know that only a powerful expert who has reached the level of Immortal Lord can fully master the laws of space. In other words, to forge a spatial artifact, one must not only have an extremely high level of crafting skills, but also be at least at the level of Immortal Lord to have any chance of successfully forging it!
This made Chen Tianwen look at the White Moon Chamber of Commerce with even greater respect.
As soon as Chen Tianwen entered, a beautiful waitress of unknown race ran up to him and politely said:
"Senior, is there anything I can do to help you?"
The waiter always had a pleasant smile on his face, and his good looks made him instantly likable.
Chen Tianwen nodded. The White Moon Merchant Guild didn't exhibit any signs of being abusive or arrogant. Despite his ordinary attire, the waiters were still incredibly polite, which greatly increased Chen Tianwen's positive impression. He then said:
"I have some elixirs I wish to sell. I wonder if your White Moon Merchant Guild would be willing to purchase them?"
The waiter nodded quickly, leading the way while introducing the items:
"Senior, the White Moon Merchant Guild accepts anything. They offer two acquisition methods; you can choose whichever you prefer!"
"One option is for the Chamber of Commerce to conduct the auction on your behalf, but the Chamber of Commerce will charge a 5% commission on the transaction price."
"Another option is for the Chamber of Commerce to directly bid for the exclusive rights, but no matter how much the auction goes on, it will be irrelevant to you, senior. The main principle is that you bear the profits and losses yourself!"
The waiter's playful words made Chen Tianwen smile slightly. "Profits and losses are your own responsibility? A large business association like the White Moon Chamber of Commerce naturally has its own professional appraisers."
Although the waiter didn't say it explicitly, the price for a direct buyout definitely wouldn't be too high. However, Chen Tianwen, who was in urgent need of money, didn't care about such things.
Led by a waiter, Chen Tianwen was led into an antique room. As soon as he entered the room, a rich fragrance of elixir wafted into his nostrils.
"Senior, this is the treasure room specifically for appraising elixirs. Please wait a moment, I will go and invite the appraiser right away!"
After the waiter finished speaking, he drifted away, leaving Chen Tianwen looking around the room.
"Um?"
Chen Tianwen's gaze was drawn to a painting on the wall depicting fairies gathering herbs.
What attracted Chen Tianwen was not the painting's exquisite craftsmanship, but rather a few fragmented inscriptions in the blank space at the bottom left of the scroll:
"The dawn is the elixir, the twilight is the powder... Three thousand immortal jades... Death..."
Perhaps no one else would have noticed the unusual nature of this painting, but Chen Tianwen immediately recognized it as an incomplete recipe for an elixir.
The greatest truths are the simplest.
[Seven Deadly Elixir, fragment, Grade Four Elixir. Concocted from seven highly poisonous immortal ingredients, capable of curing all poisons! Requires 1200 kinds of immortal herbs, and takes three days and two nights to refine.]
[Simplification begins, simplification complete]
[Seven-Element Immortal Pill, Grade Four Immortal Pill. Capable of curing all poisons! Requires twelve kinds of immortal herbs and takes three hours to refine!]
As expected, Chen Tianwen secretly used his simplified laws to verify that this was indeed an incomplete pill formula. Furthermore, through the simplification of the simplified laws, Chen Tianwen obtained the complete Seven Absolute Immortal Pill formula.
Chen Tianwen frowned. Placing such a valuable elixir formula casually on the wall was something even the wealthy and powerful Baiyue Chamber of Commerce wouldn't do!
Could there be a deeper meaning?
As Chen Tianwen was pondering, an elderly man in his fifties and a servant rushed back into the room.
The old man was greatly surprised to see Chen Tianwen standing for so long before the painting of the fairy gathering herbs, and silently thought to himself:
"This gentleman is here to sell elixirs, so he must be an alchemist. Could it be that he has discovered some secret in the painting?"
The old man thought for a moment, then walked over to Chen Tianwen, bowed, and said:
"What do you think of the painting of the fairy gathering herbs, sir?"
Chen Tianwen chuckled inwardly. If you hadn't mentioned the painting of the fairy gathering herbs, I might not have been sure. But as soon as you entered the room, you brought up the painting, so my guess was pretty much right!
Chen Tianwen spoke up:
"This painting of a fairy gathering herbs is exquisitely crafted, but it's not worth many fairy crystals!"
"What's truly valuable is probably this Seven-Element Immortal Pill! The formula for a fourth-grade immortal pill is far more valuable than that!"
