"Elder Danchi, how many days does it typically take to refine a fourth-grade immortal pill?"
"If I were to refine it at full strength, it might take a week. That would require the help of several people to refine the pill, since the immortal herbs needed for a fourth-grade immortal pill are a massive undertaking, even just the refining of them!"
When Bai Qingsong heard Elder Danchi say this, he nodded. Chen Tianwen's alchemy skills might be a notch above Elder Danchi's, but he chose to refine pills alone.
They were probably afraid the pill formula would be leaked! After all, the formula for a fourth-grade immortal pill is priceless.
Bai Qingsong calculated that even if Chen Tianwen reached the level of a fifth-grade pill king, it would probably take at least three or four days to successfully refine it. So he left the secret room with Elder Danchi. There was an auction tomorrow, and the two of them needed to go down and prepare!
Bai Qingsong instructed the maid to wait for Chen Tianwen there, and then have Chen Tianwen come and invite Bai Qingsong directly after he came out.
Unexpectedly, only two hours after Bai Qingsong and his companion left, Chen Tianwen had already started the furnace to extract the pills.
The fact that the fourth-grade elixir still did not attract a heavenly tribulation made Chen Tianwen wonder what level of elixir was recorded in the Qilin Undying Divine Art.
The Qilin Jade Body King Pill alone attracted a heavenly tribulation; the two pills that followed must be of an even higher level!
The Seven-Element Elixir is complete!
Chen Tianwen put away the Seven Absolute Immortal Pill covered with Dao patterns. Without a doubt, this was another top-grade immortal pill.
As Chen Tianwen stepped out of the room, the little maid looked at him in surprise and said:
"Senior, you're out so quickly? Are you missing some immortal herbs? I'll go find Elder Danchi to get them right away!"
Chen Tianwen quickly stopped the maid and said with a smile:
"The elixir has been refined. Where are Young Master Bai and Elder Danchi?"
The maid was somewhat incredulous. The young master had instructed that it would take at least three days for Chen Tianwen to come out, but in less than three hours, Chen Tianwen had already refined the elixir.
Although the little maid's cultivation level was not high, she had been working in the White Moon Merchant Guild and believed that she had seen many powerful alchemists. She had also helped Elder Danchi refine pills before, but that time it was only a third-grade immortal pill, and Elder Danchi spent four whole days refining it!
"Little sister, where are Young Master Bai and Elder Dan Chi?"
Seeing the maid staring blankly, Chen Tianwen asked again.
Chen Tianwen was unaware that the little maid was astonished because of his method of alchemy. If Chen Tianwen had known the reason, he would have sighed inwardly:
Sometimes going too fast isn't a good thing.
When Chen Tianwen asked again, the maidservant snapped out of her daze and quickly replied:
"Because the auction is about to begin, the young master and Elder Danchi rushed over to help. Please wait a moment, senior, I'll go and invite them over right away!"
Chen Tianwen waved his hand and asked again:
"How much time is left before the auction begins?"
The maid calculated the time and said to Chen Tianwen:
"Reporting to Senior, the auction will begin in one hour!"
Chen Tianwen nodded, surprised that he had already spent the whole night at the White Moon Chamber of Commerce. Fortunately, he had managed to refine the elixir, otherwise he might have missed the auction.
Chen Tianwen did not let the little maid disturb Bai Qingsong and Elder Danchi. Since the elixir had already been refined, there was no rush to let the two finish the auction first. After all, it was the first auction held by the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce in Buhuo City, which was very important to Bai Qingsong, the branch president.
Moreover, Chen Tianwen intends to acquire some items at the auction, and it would be very inconvenient if the two of them accompanied him.
Considering Chen Tianwen's help in refining the elixir, Bai Qingsong would definitely sell it to Chen Tianwen at a very low price, or even give it away for free. Chen Tianwen didn't want to accept so many favors from Bai Qingsong, and besides, he would be embarrassed to ask for anything valuable if he came across it.
So Chen Tianwen had his maid take him directly into the auction hall. Chen Tianwen took out his diamond card, and after the maid helped him book a private room, Chen Tianwen forcibly dragged her into the room.
It wasn't that Chen Tianwen had any improper thoughts; he simply wanted to get some information from the maid. On the other hand, he was also afraid that the maid would disturb Bai Qingsong and Elder Danchi.
"Little sister, why do you always address Young Master Bai as 'Young Master'?"
Chen Tianwen asked the maid to sit down, but she refused. Helpless, Chen Tianwen sat down by himself and asked the maid standing beside him.
The little maid was secretly pleased that Chen Tianwen called her "little sister".
As a receptionist for the White Moon Chamber of Commerce, her actual status wasn't high. Being ordered around by others was commonplace. Not only was Chen Tianwen's strength unfathomable, but he was also a powerful alchemist, and more importantly, he was so handsome...
In fact, Chen Tianwen did not know that this little maid was over three hundred years old, but in the immortal realm, over three hundred years old was indeed not an old age.
However, Chen Tianwen was only in his early twenties at the time. If he knew the truth, he would never dare to call her "little sister".
"Little sister?"
Chen Tianwen looked at the little maid who was in a daze again, and asked her again, somewhat puzzled.
The maid blushed slightly and coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness. She had already spaced out twice today while following Chen Tianwen.
"Um... Senior, the Young Master Bai you mentioned is the young master of our White Moon Merchant Guild's president. We should naturally address him as Young Master!"
Chen Tianwen never expected that Bai Qingsong was actually the son of the president. No wonder he could become the president of the branch at such a young age!
Chen Tianwen then asked the maid some questions about the auction, and time passed quickly.
Looking from his private room, Chen Tianwen saw that the auction hall was already full of people. He was on the second floor, a privilege exclusive to Diamond Card members who had their own private room!
After a while, a scantily clad, extremely hot woman swayed her fiery figure onto the auction stage, instantly causing a gasp of surprise from the immortals attending the auction below.
"The White Moon Merchant Guild welcomes all immortals. My name is Hu Ji, and I am the host of this auction. I hereby declare the auction officially open."
As Hu Ji's clear and melodious words ceased, a huge screen rose from the auction stage, magnifying the scene several times over, so that even the immortals in the last row could observe every detail of the auction stage.
However, with the appearance of the giant screen, the already beautiful Hu Ji was magnified several times on the screen.
Such a beautiful figure made her even more breathtaking, and some immortals even drooled!
