Three hundred years ago, Eagle Gorge was dominated by the Giant Void Sect, reigning supre over all, with every other power daring not to defy them... If the Pei Family from Ghost Wolf City hadn't later intervened, and the Purple Fla Palace hadn't seized the opportunity to rise, it might still be the sa today.
Therefore, no cultivator throughout Eagle Gorge doubts the foundation and strength of the Giant Void Sect!
Thus, the surroundings of the Azure Dragon Pavilion are now quiet, with no one causing trouble or stirring up disturbances, as everyone patiently awaits the comncent of the auction.
Finally, after a mont, an elder with bronzed skin and wearing an antique robe unsteadily walked to the center of the Azure Dragon Pavilion. At the sa ti, a faint terrifying aura spread forth, causing a murmuring among the crowd.
"Isn't that one of the four Dharma Kings of the Giant Void Sect, Li Chengkong? Is he personally hosting this auction?"
"The four Dharma Kings? I recall the Giant Void Sect's Dharma Kings are all Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts?"
"Correct! This Giant Void Sect has six openly recognized Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts—the Sect Hierarch, the Vice Sect Hierarch, and the four Dharma Kings... Furthermore, I'm certain there are ancient ones still alive within the sect!"
"Gasp! Just counting the prominent ones, there are six Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts? This..."
...
Evidently, they truly hadn't expected, even for such a grand auction, to attract a Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm Dharma King like Li Chengkong from the Giant Void Sect to participate! Is this not sowhat odd and excessive?
"Cough, cough..." At this mont, Li Chengkong spoke first, though he was persistently coughing, appearing as though gravely ill.
Those familiar with this Giant Void Sect Dharma King, however, didn't change expression, as if accustod to it.
This was simply part of Li Chengkong's habitual behavior, well understood by them.
"Today, the auction is hosted by my Giant Void Sect. My gratitude that you honor us with your presence."
Finally, Li Chengkong, having unsteadily finished coughing, swept his bleary gaze over the crowd, then focused on an unusual direction, showing a peculiar smile as he opened his mouth to speak.
"I know many are here today for the seven-hundred-years-old Xuanyin Grass, but what I want to say now is, you needn't focus your attention solely on this item." He smiled and shakily said.
"Dharma King Li Chengkong, what do you an by this? Could it be there's an issue with the Xuanyin Grass?" Lord Changhong's expression suddenly changed, speaking out.
If there's indeed a problem with the Xuanyin Grass, wouldn't his journey here be in vain?
"Ah, it's the young man from the Pei Family. I recognize you; your talent is quite excellent..." Li Chengkong glanced at Lord Changhong and spoke indifferently, "However, you've misunderstood. My statent isn't to imply there's a problem with the Xuanyin Grass."
"Then what is it?" Lord Changhong furrowed his brow.
"I simply believe there will be treasures more valuable than the Xuanyin Grass appearing at this auction," Li Chengkong said with a strange smile.
"Treasures more valuable than the Xuanyin Grass?" Upon hearing this, many were left stunned.
They genuinely struggled to comprehend the aning behind Dharma King Li Chengkong's words. Treasures surpassing the Xuanyin Grass, could such a thing exist?
Mind you, the Xuanyin Grass is used to craft the Yin Extinguishing Pill! And what is the Yin Extinguishing Pill? It's a miraculous pill that offers cultivators of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer a chance to breakthrough to the Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm!
The Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm are two entirely different worlds!
And just a small pill could potentially allow a master at the peak of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer to rise, transition into the Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm, ascend to higher realms, and beco a commanding presence within the Eagle Gorge Area!
Such an aspiration, which individual or family wouldn't pursue with madness?
How many Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm experts exist within the Eagle Gorge Area?
Any na announced commands respect, renowned far and wide!
Thus, even a re chance, despite many potentially having to spend significantly to travel to Ghost Wolf City and employ an Alchemist at the very least of Fourth Grade to personally conduct the alchemy...
Yet none of this matters!
Because simply the tiers, status encompassed by those five words—Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm—justify the commitnt to such fervor!
But now? But now Dharama King Li Chengkong asserts that at this auction, treasures surpassing the Xuanyin Grass exist?
Many were left stunned, not from lack of excitent, but genuine disbelief!
For if such treasures exist, why would the Giant Void Sect choose to auction them instead of retaining them?
In fact, the willingness of the Giant Void Sect to auction a treasure herb like the Xuanyin Grass leaves many bewildered and puzzled. Even the Pei Family, should they acquire it, likely wouldn't be willing to sell it, right?
And now...
"May I ask, Dharma King Senior, what it might be? Astonishingly more valuable than the Xuanyin Grass?" A formidable Half-Step Foundation Establishnt Realm expert stood out and slowly inquired. This person is quite famous in Eagle Gorge, on the brink of breaking through.
Once this question was posed, everyone turned fervent gazes to the strangely smiling face of Dharma King Li Chengkong. Many bore expressions of curiosity, gravity, or anticipation.
Evidently, they wished to uncover the answer to this question.
"To think this auction has treasures even more precious than the Xuanyin Grass? What could it be that the Giant Void Sect is willing to auction?" Amidst the deep silence, Yuan Qing murmured, sowhat surprised.
Clearly, this scene today was sothing he couldn't have imagined before the auction began!
The most important thing is that his intuition told him that there seed to be sothing wrong, sothing fishy.
"Just keep watching and you'll know," Chen Fei smiled and said, "If there's really sothing good, I can just buy it. I just worry that it might be sothing I'm not interested in, and then it would be pointless."
As soon as Chen Fei said this, both Yuan Qing and the others beside him, like Yan Zhou, the Iron Lion, Cang Kun, and Blue Whale, had strange and bewildered expressions on their faces.
Chen Fei's words seed a bit too bold, but after a second thought, they had to admit that Chen Fei indeed had the right to say this.
After all, when it cos to financial resources, who dares to compare with an alchemist? What's more, Chen Fei could easily refine five-patterned, six-patterned top-tier treasure pills!
If those pills were to be sold, they would definitely fetch a sky-high price!
"Alright then, since you all wish to know, I won't play the bad guy keeping secrets. Please take a look." At this mont, Dharma King Li Chengkong spoke tremblingly, waved his hand, and a blue light appeared in front of him.
"Previously, our Giant Void Sect and Daoist Friend Sima Kun inadvertently discovered an ancient tomb. At that ti, we went in to explore together, and the harvest included so ancient items, the Xuann Yin Grass, and this page of yellow paper..."
Dharma King Li Chengkong reached through the blue light, and imdiately, an ancient, weathered yellow paper appeared before him. This yellow paper looked quite unremarkable, crumpled, and seed as if it would crumble at a touch.
"Dao Brother Sima, what is that yellow paper?" Lord Changhong looked at the yellow paper in Dharma King Li Chengkong's hand, frowned, and asked Sima Kun beside him.
"It seems to be sothing of an alchemist's; I don't understand it, and the writing on it is hundreds of years old, so..." Sima Kun frowned without finishing his sentence, but Lord Changhong already understood what he ant—basically, he didn't understand it, so he didn't pay attention to it.
"The writing on this yellow paper is from five hundred years ago, quite old, right? We found a specialist to translate it, but didn't find anything of value, so we originally thought this thing might not be worth anything, but..."
At this point, Dharma King Li Chengkong suddenly paused, keeping everyone in suspense.
"Senior Dharma King Li Chengkong, but what?" Unable to contain his excitent, Lord Changhong asked again.
"But just as we were about to give up researching this page of yellow paper, by sheer chance, we discovered the secret hidden within it," said Dharma King Li Chengkong with a faint smile.
Everyone's eyes narrowed. A hidden secret? What could it be?
At this mont, Dharma King Li Chengkong casually tossed the yellow paper into the air, suspending it with spiritual energy.
Then, he took out a palm-sized jade gourd from his storage bag, uncorked it, and poured out a drop of milky white liquid, filled with the aroma of rich spiritual energy...
Could it be Millennium Spiritual Milk!?
Everyone fixed their gaze intently on Li Chengkong's next move!
Throats were slowly convulsing, as a wave of turmoil arose in their hearts...
Hiss!
Li Chengkong actually poured that drop of Millennium Spiritual Milk onto the yellow paper. Imdiately, a piercing sizzle was heard, and the yellow paper trembled slightly—a beam of green light shot directly from the paper, forming a pattern!
"This, this, this is... Qingyue? Qingyue! This is the emblem of Patriarch Qingyue of the Pei Family?! Could it be..."
At the sight of the pattern, Lord Changhong jumped up, pupils contracting, murmuring in shock and disbelief.
However, shortly after, a wave of ecstasy was released from his eyes.
In midair, the pattern ford by the green light was a crescent moon, azure in color, only about one-third complete, yet the overall shape could still be roughly guessed.
After clearly seeing this pattern, a small portion of the well-inford present burst into a frenzy!
"Qingyue! It's really Qingyue! Over five hundred years ago in Ghost Wolf City, there was an extrely powerful alchemist, above the fifth grade, with alchemical skills reaching supernatural levels, known as the Qingyue Pill King! This yellow paper was actually left by the Qingyue Pill King?"
"I heard that the Qingyue Pill King's surna was Pei? Does this an he's from the Pei Family of Ghost Wolf City?"
"Yes! Five hundred years ago, the Pei Family was totally unranked in Ghost Wolf City. If not for the guidance of the Qingyue Pill King, how could they be so prosperous today!?"
"That's not the main point. The main point is... I've heard a rumor from Ghost Wolf City. Over five hundred years ago, when the Qingyue Pill King passed away, he left behind his Dao Lineage of Alchemy and lifelong treasures, all hidden in a mysterious location, with the map divided into three parts! Each part is one-third."
"Hiss! Are you saying that this yellow paper is one-third of that map? This, this, this..."
"Most likely, it is, right?"
...
Many people went mad!
The Dao Lineage of Alchemy and lifelong treasures left by the Qingyue Pill King, who was renowned in Ghost Wolf City five hundred years ago—who wouldn't be excited by just hearing about it? Who wouldn't be moved!?
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a large, black hand ca crashing in from not far away with mighty montum! It covered the yellow paper emitting the green light, seemingly intending to directly seize the map to the treasure left by the Qingyue Pill King!
Many people's faces changed.
