Alchemist
The atmosphere in the room froze. Zuo Liang's gaze moved back and forth between Ye Zichen and the pill refinement master, but mostly on the former.
This kid is actually an alchemist?
Although Master Shao Qing did not admit it, he could already tell from his expression that Ye Zichen was a pill refiner.
Alchemy was divided into four levels: Spirit, Earth, Human, and Heaven (Immortal). Each level was further divided into four small levels: Beginner, Advanced, Master, and Grandmaster …
The symbol on their robes represented their level. The moon represented the major level, and the star represented the minor level. If they reached the Heaven-Grade Grandmaster level, it would be a sun!
Moreover, from the way Shao Qing addressed him, it wasn't hard to tell that this kid's strength wasn't just a little bit stronger than his.
In the alchemy circle, people of the same grade would generally address each other as Fellow Daoist. The so-called same grade referred to the big grade of "Earth Grade".
Only one rank higher than him.
Only such a person would be addressed as Lord.
Didn't that mean that he was at least a Human Grade Pill Master!
"Spring Returning Pill, a spirit grade medicinal pill. However, its recovery power is three times stronger than a normal Rejuvenation Pill. Are … are you a human rank grandmaster? "
Shao Qing's words were filled with respect, even though alchemy required a long period of immersion …
However, he did not dare to deny that Ye Zichen was not a character grandmaster at such a young age.
When one's alchemy reached a certain level, one's appearance was no longer fixed.
"Human rank grandmaster?"
Ye Zichen put on a look of disdain. The pills in the Treasure Shop should have been refined by Old Lord Taishang, right? In terms of pill refinement, he's definitely the best. What does a character grandmaster count for?
"Don't care so much. I'm just asking if you'll accept it or not!"
"Yes, yes, yes. We'll take as many as you have, but I wonder if you have any other pills for sale!"
Shao Qing was a little flustered. Judging from the lord's expression, he seemed to be more than just a Character Grandmaster.
But … were there any pill refiners above the Heaven grade in the outer regions of the Immortal Region? Could it be that this expert came from the Immortal Region? Moreover, why would a Heaven Grade Alchemist refine this kind of medicinal pill?
"Of course there is."
He took out a Spirit Congealing Pill from his bosom, which was also a pill that was sold in the Treasure Shop for a hundred pills. Shao Qing carefully picked it up and put it into his mouth …
"Spirit Congealing Pill, the effect is also three times stronger than ordinary Spirit Congealing Pill!"
"How many of these pills do you want?" Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows. He didn't come here to show off, he merely wanted to buy Barrier Breaking Grass.
"Two thousand for one. How much do you want?" Shao Qing narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth.
The price he offered was actually already very high. Normally, they would only charge 1,700 to 1,800 at most. The reason why he gave such a high price was to leave a good impression on this lord.
"How much does the Barrier Breaking Grass cost?"
Ye Zichen turned around. Zuo Liang licked his lips. His sister said that he can't accept it no matter what.
"This …"
"Xiao Liang, your sister wants to fool around. Are you going to follow along?" Shao Qing glared at him. Zuo Liang immediately shrunk his neck and smiled. "I can't decide. I have to ask my sister."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out like a wisp of smoke. Shao Qing, who was in the room, also asked tentatively.
"May I know what Milord is collecting the Barrier Breaking Grass for …"
"Refine the Barrier Breaking Pill!"
The moment he said that, Shao Qing's expression turned even more respectful. The Barrier Breaking Pill seems to only be refined by those of the high level Sky Grade and above, and the success rate is extremely low.
"If we succeed in this deal, then I can sell you one."
Ye Zichen wasn't certain whether Zuo Mo would cause trouble for him or not, but Shao Qing seemed to have quite a bit of status in the Treasure Tower. If he could get this geezer to help convince Zuo Mo, then it wouldn't be a problem for him to sell one to them after he gave the materials to Old Lord Taishang.
"About this … Milord, I will directly gift this Barrier Breaking Grass to you on behalf of the Treasure Tower. If you successfully refine it, then please sell one to the Treasure Tower. We will buy it for a high price. "
Shao Qing was so excited that he couldn't speak. A Barrier Breaking Pill was equivalent to a Sky Immortal. Just what level is this master at …
If he had been a little curious as to why someone of his level would want to buy the Barrier Breaking Grass at the price of a medicinal pill, now … even if what this Lord said was false, and this medicinal pill wasn't concocted by him, it was possible that there was someone behind this pill. He was prepared to take a gamble.
Ten strands of Barrier Breaking Grass paled in comparison to a Barrier Breaking Pill.
"That's so embarrassing, but since you said that, then I won't refuse. Of course, I won't take advantage of you … "
Whoosh.
Two thousand jade bottles suddenly appeared in the room.
"These are a thousand Spring-Returning Pills and a thousand Spirit Focusing Pills. As for the Barrier Breaking Pill, if I have any extra, then I'll give it to the Treasure Tower."
"Then thank you so much, milord!" Shao Qing replied gratefully.
Zuo Liang hurried over to the auction stage. Zuo Mo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw his little brother's hurried expression.
"How is it? Did you send him away?"
"Sis, there's a problem," Zuo Liang gulped. "That guy is a pill refiner, and he seems to be of a rather high level. Even Master Shao Qing called him milord!"
"That's impossible!"
Zuo Mo was stunned. How could a pill refiner be so young? And he even made Shao Qing call him milord. That's too laughable.
What's more, if he really is a pill refiner above the human grade, why would he need to trade for a Barrier Breaking Grass!
"Take me over!"
Bang.
The door to the secret room opened. When Zuo Mo walked in, she saw that the room was filled with jade bottles.
"Where's Ye Zichen!?" Zuo Mo raised her eyebrows. Shao Qing, who was sitting on the chair, stood up, "Zuo Mo, give those ten Barrier Breaking Grass to that milord after the auction ends."
Actually, Zuo Mo was her real name. The reason why she had called him Zuo Mo before was purely to lower Ye Zichen's guard!
"Why?" Zuo Mo raised her eyebrows in confusion. Shao Qing's expression instantly darkened, "Don't worry about it so much. Alright, continue hosting the auction!"
Zuo Mo waved her sleeves and left the room. Only then did Zuo Mo clench her teeth hatefully.
"This is pissing me off!"
As expected, the Barrier Breaking Grass was not auctioned off. The bearded man beside Ye Zichen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Bro, the Barrier Breaking Grass is in your hands, right?"
"It's a secret!"
Ye Zichen smiled, while his tone was filled with joy. Right now, all he had to do was wait for the auction to end before he could take the Barrier Breaking Grass away.
Time passed by, and the auction continued.
During this period of time, Ye Zichen, who had nothing to do, calculated the transaction amount. It really was as the bearded man had said.
The transaction amount this time really did exceed ten billion.
As the last item was auctioned off, the auction came to an end. Everyone in the auction hall waited for the staff to deliver the treasure to them, and Ye Zichen was naturally one of them.
However, at that very moment …
Dong.
A huge hole suddenly appeared on the top floor of the auction hall.
