Ten million mid-grade Saint Crystals!
Clearly, Ye Xuan's intuition told him that mid-grade Saint Crystals would not be rare for him anymore. After all, the system's next reward would surely be much more substantial.
This was for the best, though!
After all, mid-grade Saint Crystals had very little effect on his current cultivation of the Hao Yue Four Heavens.
"May I ask what you wish to auction, esteemed sir?"
Elder Li retracted his gaze, his expression returning to its usual placidity, as if nothing in the world could pique his interest.
"Nothing much, just a few elixirs."
Ye Xuan paid no mind to Elder Li's reaction. He casually produced two porcelain bottles, initiating his ever-reliable strategy.
"Oh."
Upon seeing the two porcelain bottles Ye Xuan presented, Elder Li showed a flicker of curiosity. He sensed that the young man before him displayed no trace of nervousness or apprehension.
Clearly!
To remain so composed in his presence, one was either a fool, or the contents of these two bottles were extraordinary.
With that thought.
Elder Li picked up one of the porcelain bottles and then opened its mouth. The instant he cracked it open slightly, an intensely potent medicinal energy instantly permeated the entire appraisal area.
Feng Chen and the others, catching the familiar scent of elixirs, could only offer wry smiles. As expected, their master had brought out his signature elixir, the "Po Chen Dan." The Four Seas Auction House was about to explode today.
"This is..."
As expected, Elder Li, feeling an unprecedentedly rich medicinal fragrance, had his eyes bulging out. What in the world was this elixir?
Why had he never seen it before!!
This was Elder Li's immediate reaction. He sprang to his feet with such vigor that he seemed more spry than a young man, astonishing for someone at least tens of thousands of years old.
"Hmm!?"
Swish swish~
At this moment, numerous gazes fell upon the center of the hall, or rather, upon the porcelain bottle in Elder Li's hand, their eyes blazing with fervor.
Such a potent elixir aroma. And... just a single whiff seemed to enhance their strength significantly. The effects if one were to consume it would be...
Gulp~
Gulp~ Gulp~~
The sounds of swallowing could be heard from various parts of the appraisal area. Damn it, they didn't want to, but this overwhelming medicinal fragrance was simply uncontrollable.
This is a disaster~~
The elf clone's lips curled slightly at the crowd's reaction. His main body, as usual, would never be calm anywhere. However, all the major powers were likely to suffer heavy losses now.
Feng Chen and the others twitched their lips. Their master was truly insane. This was going to be interesting, though they were quite looking forward to it, hehe...
For a time!
Everyone was filled with curiosity about the upcoming auction, eagerly awaiting the heated competition among the various factions, a scene that was exhilarating just to imagine.
Seeing Elder Li's reaction, Ye Xuan knew his first step to garnering attention had been a perfect success. The ensuing fervor of the auction would utterly astonish the Four Seas Merchant Association, marking the beginning of his exchange for heaven-defying resources.
With that thought, the system's mission would be easily completed.
"This is the 'Po Chen Dan'!"
Ye Xuan looked at Elder Li with a profound gaze, then smiled slightly. "As the name suggests, this elixir can allow peak-extreme experts below the Star Nine Heavens to ascend one level without side effects..."
Boom!!
As expected, upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed drastically, including the many Star-level experts from the Four Seas Merchant Association. My goodness, how outrageous!!
Is this madness!?
Peak-extreme in the Star realm, ascending one level without side effects, what did this mean?
If their Four Seas Merchant Association possessed such an item, it would have a significant impact on their strength.
"Indeed."
Elder Li meticulously savored the elixir. With his countless years of alchemical experience, this elixir was highly likely to possess such efficacy, as it seemed no different from a divine elixir to him.
"There are a total of five 'Po Chen Dans' this time. Of course, besides the Po Chen Dan, there is another elixir. Perhaps you could guess what it is, senior?"
"Oh."
If it were before, Elder Li would not have paid much attention. However, things were different now.
Know this!
This single 'Po Chen Dan' was enough to make him extremely serious!!
Then, Elder Li opened the other porcelain bottle, this time with extreme caution, opening it only a sliver before immediately closing it.
However!
Even so, in an instant, a medicinal fragrance at least several times stronger than before permeated the air. Elder Li himself was almost sent reeling by the sudden surge.
"My heavens!"
"This elixir... is an evolved version of the previous one. Could it be, perhaps..."
Clearly, Elder Li had an inkling of what it was at first glance, and his gaze immediately snapped to Ye Xuan. "Young friend, this elixir... could it be a divine elixir that affects the Hao Yue realm!!"
What!!
Elder Li's words sent a shockwave through the entire hall, and in the next moment, everyone's hearts leaped into their throats.
Following that, all eyes turned to Ye Xuan, as they did not want to miss a single moment due to any distraction!
"Correct."
Ye Xuan smiled faintly. "As expected of a master. This elixir is called the 'Po Yue Dan.' As for its use..."
As Ye Xuan eloquently explained, a profound silence fell upon the hall.
Holy crap!
Holy crap! Holy crap!!
It actually... it was exactly as Elder Li had said. This was simply inconceivable.
Completely unimaginable.
Can you believe it, an elixir that allows one to advance one level in the Hao Yue realm without any side effects!
"Three 'Po Yue Dans,' five 'Po Chen Dans'!!"
Elder Li looked at the two porcelain bottles before him, feeling immense pressure. Damn it, in his tens of thousands of years, he had never been so shocked. These two elixirs had completely opened up a new world for him.
So... the path of alchemy was far more mysterious than he had imagined. His current skill was likely not even scratching the surface.
This thought sent a shiver down his spine!
Elder Li looked at Ye Xuan with changed eyes. My goodness, if that were the case, then this person was truly extraordinary. Even the four major overlord factions would struggle to produce such a genius. Could it be...
This child hails from those ancient, mysterious existences??
For a moment, Elder Li speculated inwardly. After all, if these elixirs appeared in the outside world, they would absolutely astound everyone!
"Young friend, are you truly going to auction these elixirs?"
Elder Li swallowed hard. He asked himself, if he possessed such resources, why would he ever be willing to auction them? Wouldn't it be more satisfying to consume them himself?
However, he also understood that since they were so casually presented for auction, this person naturally wouldn't have just a few of them. Roughly estimating, he likely had at least ten times this quantity, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to remain so nonchalant.
