Although the woman's words were full of praise for Luo Ping, there was not the slightest hint of appreciation in her tone. Instead, she sounded a little displeased.
Other than a few experienced Immortal Lords, the rest of the Immortal Lords and the leaders of the various A-class forces were all shocked by the woman's words. They had never imagined that the woman had known Luo Ping for a long time.
Although the woman's words did not have the slightest bit of goodwill, at this moment, everyone was even more confused about Luo Ping.
"Humph, this Hong Ling Immortal Lord is indeed not a simple person. She immediately saw through my thoughts. She is indeed worthy of being a genius of the Ye Family."
"However, I never intended to hide my thoughts. Otherwise, I would not have proposed to the Shangguan Family Head to hold the conference."
"Although I feel a little uncomfortable being seen through, I can use this opportunity to raise my and Master Tianxing's request. This way, our efforts to improve the level of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Elixir will not be in vain."
Luo Ping's heart was filled with both admiration and fear for the woman. After all, the woman's words were exactly what he and Yuan Tianxing were thinking.
After some research, he and Yuan Tianxing had found a way to improve the level of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Elixir. They had also experimented and successfully refined a higher level Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Elixir.
This time, they attended the conference with the intention of telling everyone about this matter. However, the Seven Treasures Soul-amassing Pill, which was of a higher grade, could not be sold easily. After all, this Immortal Pill was too precious, and they had to be paid for it.
Even at this critical moment, Luo Ping had no choice but to do so. Only in this way could the value of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Elixir be reflected and more forces would pay attention to it.
Besides, even if he gave it away for free, not many forces would thank him. Instead, they would take it for granted. After all, at this critical moment, Luo Ping's actions would only make the various forces think that he was resisting the demons or even protecting his own safety.
Under such circumstances, Luo Ping and Yuan Tianxing did not have to play the role of the good guys. Only by trading could they achieve 'relative fairness'.
The woman who had just spoken was Hong Ling Celestial Master, whom Luo Ping had met in the Cultivation Realm. Her real name was Ye Hong Ling, and she was a Celestial Master from the Ye Clan, a first-rate clan. She was also a genius.
Because of what had happened in the past, Hong Ling Immortal Master didn't have a good impression of Luo Ping and the entire Cultivation Realm. Therefore, she was naturally merciless with her words.
With her eyesight and wisdom, she naturally saw through Luo Ping and Yuan Tianxing's thoughts. Therefore, she exposed them first, wanting to see Luo Ping's embarrassed expression.
"Hong Ling Immortal Monarch is indeed a genius of the Ye Clan. I've long heard that Hong Ling Immortal Monarch is extraordinarily intelligent and resourceful. Today, I'm fortunate enough to witness it for myself. This junior is truly impressed."
"Hong Ling Immortal Monarch is right. My master and I do have a way to raise the level of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill. We've already tried and succeeded."
"This time, we're planning to announce this to the public. We hope to borrow the power of the high-level Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill to help more Level Nine Peerless Immortals break through to the Immortal Monarch realm in the shortest time possible."
"Of course, as Hong Ling Immortal Monarch has said, we have conditions. After all, we can't give away such a precious pill for free."
Luo Ping first praised Hong Ling Immortal Monarch, then directly admitted to the matter of upgrading the Seven Treasures Soul Condensing Pill. He also mentioned that one would have to pay a certain price to obtain the Seven Treasures Soul Condensing Pill.
Luo Ping's words were righteous and he didn't look flustered at all. He didn't show the embarrassment that Hong Ling Immortal Master had expected at all. This made Hong Ling Immortal Master have a better understanding of Luo Ping's ability to deal with matters. She couldn't help but be a little surprised.
As for the others, they all looked excited after hearing Luo Ping's words. After all, raising the level of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill was of utmost importance to the entire Immortal Realm.
At this moment, everyone was incomparably shocked by Yuan Tianxing's attainment in alchemy, especially the newly ascended Immortal Monarchs and presidents of the other three chambers of commerce.
The previous presidents of the other three chambers of commerce had already reached the Immortal Monarch realm, so they had passed the position of president to someone else. They had previously studied the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill in an attempt to figure out the ingredients and refining method of the immortal pill, but they had all failed in the end.
This was because not only were they unable to grasp all the ingredients, but they also couldn't understand the refining method. After some research, they were deeply aware of how difficult it was to refine the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill.
The original Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill had already made the two presidents of the three chambers of commerce look at it in a new light. It was difficult for them to comprehend it, not to mention that Yuan Tianxing had now raised the level of the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill.
As members of the chambers of commerce and presidents of the chambers of commerce, the two presidents of the three chambers of commerce were naturally extremely shocked by Yuan Tianxing's attainment in alchemy. At the same time, they thought of the four key techniques that Yuan Tianxing possessed, and their hearts were filled with desire and helplessness. They could only sigh inwardly.
"City Lord Luo, may I know what conditions are required to exchange for the Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill?"
After a while, a hale and hearty old man with a gentle attitude asked.
"Senior must be the 'Divine Doctor Immortal Monarch', Senior Lu Gongju. This junior has always been very respectful and admiring of senior. After meeting you today, this junior can be considered to have fulfilled his wish."
"The conditions that senior asked for are actually very simple. As long as a force can provide one set of all the ingredients on this list, they can obtain a high-grade Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pill."
"If you can provide two sets of ingredients, you can obtain two high-grade Seven Treasures Soul-condensing Pills, and so on. However, a force can only exchange for five Celestial Pills at most."
Luo Ping looked at the old man who had just spoken with a bright smile on his face. Clearly, he held the old man in high esteem.
This old man was a veteran Celestial Duke of the Lu Clan. His name was Lu Gongju, and people called him the 'Divine Doctor Immortal Monarch'. His medical skills were divine, and he could bring people back to life. Moreover, he was kind and benevolent. Therefore, he had always been respected and revered by various forces in the Celestial Realm. Luo Ping was no exception.
After expressing his respect for Lu Gongju, Luo Ping casually released a ray of light that turned into a light screen in the air. Many ingredients were recorded on the screen.
Everyone looked at the light screen as they listened to Luo Ping's words. When they saw the ingredients on the light screen, they were shocked.
Even many veteran Celestial Dukes frowned slightly. It was as though they found it difficult to accept the ingredients on the light screen.
"I say, Luo City Lord, you're obviously asking for an exorbitant price and taking the opportunity to rake in wealth. There are a lot of materials listed here, including materials for refining weapons, materials for refining pills, materials for refining talismans, and various other heavenly treasures."
"There are almost a hundred ingredients, and many of them are extremely precious and high-grade. Even a first-grade clan would find it difficult to gather a complete set of ingredients, let alone two or three sets."
"City Lord Luo is still blinded by greed at this critical juncture. It is not appropriate for you to try and amass wealth wantonly. Could it be that City Lord Luo thinks that your Hundred Rivers City alone can withstand the army of the Fiendish Demon Race?"
"If there aren't enough Celestial Dukes, and if the various forces don't work together and unite as one, even if your Hundred River City has so many ingredients, it will still be destroyed by the army of the Demon Race."
"I originally thought that City Lord Luo would be generous and selfless for the survival of the Immortal Realm. Who would have thought that this would be the outcome? It's really disappointing."
The new Patriarch of the Yuwen Clan, Yuwen Che, bluntly criticized Luo Ping. He reprimanded Luo Ping for trying to make a fortune and even pointed out the fact that Luo Ping wasn't a righteous person. It was as though he was a moral hostage-taker.
Normally, Yuwen Che wouldn't have had the guts to speak like this. After all, Luo Ping and Yuan Tianxing weren't the only ones from Hundred River City participating in the conference. Hundred Eyes Immortal Lord and Wu Feiying were also sitting in the inner circle.
The reason he was so bold was because his father, Yuwen Pu, had also advanced to the Celestial Dukes Realm. Secondly, there were so many Celestial Dukes and leaders of various forces present. Moreover, everyone was dissatisfied with the conditions proposed by Luo Ping. Yuwen Che had only mustered up his courage to speak after observing the situation, hoping to gain the support of the other forces.
"This reckless wastrel has just taken over the clan, yet he wants to push it into the abyss of destruction."
Hearing Yuwen Che's words, Yuwen Pu, who was sitting in the inner circle, had an extremely ugly expression. He couldn't help but want to teach his son a lesson so that he wouldn't dare to speak carelessly in the future.
Although Yuwen Pu didn't have a good impression of Hundred River City, he knew the gap between him and Hundred River City. He would never take the initiative to provoke Hundred River City.
But now, not only had Yuwen Che provoked Hundred River City, but he had also rudely criticized Luo Ping in front of so many experts. This was simply courting death.
Even though Yuwen Pu had advanced to the Celestial Dukes Realm, there was still a large gap between his strength and the Hundred Eyes Immortal Lord's. Not to mention, there was also a seemingly harmless, but in reality, terrifying little loli sitting beside the Hundred Eyes Immortal Lord.
"This wastrel is still delusional to think that he can gain the support of others. I'm afraid that everyone is secretly laughing in their hearts, waiting to see him make a fool of himself."
"At this time, if anyone speaks up to support him, they will definitely be a wastrel like him."
Yuwen Pu felt very helpless at this moment. He wished that he had never given birth to such a brainless son. However, the following situation made him realize that perhaps his son wasn't the most brainless.
"Patriarch Yuwen is right. Things have already reached this stage, yet City Lord Luo still wants to wantonly amass wealth without any scruples. This is clearly an act of selfishness. Where is the magnanimous and righteous demeanor?"
"In my opinion, City Lord Luo should selflessly offer up the high-grade Seven Treasure Soul Condensing Elixir. Only when the Immortal Domain nurtures enough Celestial Dukes as soon as possible can we resist the invasion of the fiendish demon army."
"Only by repelling the fiendish demon army and ensuring the safety of the Immortal Domain can your Hundred River City continue to develop. City Lord Luo should set his sights further and not just look at the immediate benefits."
