Fan Baohua carefully took out the box. Just the box alone was made from extremely precious wood. In addition, there were three layers of arrays on both the inside and outside. It was enough to show how much importance they attached to this.
However, in the eyes of Elder Sun and the others, this was still not enough. If it was really a Flawless pill, even if it was placed in the main hall of the Pill Refining Guild, it would be a matter of course.
The round pill appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. It was pure and flawless. It was white like snow, without any impurities. The body of the pill was full and round. The pill patterns were carefully etched as if it was displaying a grand plan.
Elder Sun could not help but lose his composure. One had to know that he was the Chief Alchemist of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to study the pill.
“This, this–”
He opened his mouth, so excited that he could not even speak. His pair of old hands were trembling, and people wondered if the pill would fall out of his hands.
“I didn’t expect that there would really be someone in this world who could refine a Flawless quality pill. To be able to see it in my lifetime, my life has not been in vain!”
Elder Sun observed the pill, and a refreshing medicinal fragrance assailed his nostrils. It was as if he had entered an ethereal world, and he could feel the indistinct Dao of alchemy.
Tears streamed down his old face, and his reaction was no less exaggerated than that of Elder Zhao from before.
Now that they had Elder Sun’s appraisal, everyone was completely at ease. The medicinal pill in front of them was really of Flawless quality! Elder Sun had stayed in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce for so many years, and there was absolutely no way that he could be mistaken.
“Quickly inform the headquarters that this medicinal pill is really of Flawless quality. Quickly send someone to escort it to the capital!”
Elder Sun carefully placed the pill into the box and calmed his excitement before asking, “Who refined this pill?”
Could it be those hidden Alchemy Emperor? Only they had the possibility of refining this kind of pill.
Several names had already crossed Elder Sun’s mind.
Li Buxiang did not dare to deceive him. “It’s a young master. His background is mysterious and his origin is extraordinary. According to him, this pill was refined by his master.”
“Where’s the young master? where is he now?”
“He said he still has some important matters to attend to, so he left first.”
Elder Sun was a bit confused, but he did not take it to heart. He only thought it was those Alchemy Emperor’s disciples. In order to not attract attention, they asked their disciples to act on their behalf.
No matter what, once this news spread, it was believed that it would cause a sensation throughout the entire capital. It would even be able to raise the reputation of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce to another level!
“You’ve made a great contribution this time. When I return, I’ll properly reward you.”
Hearing Elder Sun’s words, Li Buxiang felt as if he had been given a huge pie. He revealed a dreamy expression.
However, Elder Sun’s tone changed. “However, before this, the news can not be leaked in the slightest. Otherwise–”
When he said the last sentence, Elder Sun’s tone already carried a hint of warning.
After all, this matter was of great importance. If it were to be leaked, other factions would know that there was a Flawless pill here. This place was quite a distance away from the headquarters, and no one could guarantee their safety.
This was a Flawless quality pill. Anyone would be tempted.
When they arrived in the capital, the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce did not have such concerns. No one dared to make a move on the Lord.
When the people of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce received the news, they did not dare to delay. Not only did they immediately dispatch double the number of people, they even used a large-scale teleportation array. Their goal was to deliver the medicinal pills as quickly as possible, so as not to cause any more trouble.
On this day, a certain piece of news came out of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce, causing the originally restless capital to become even more lively.
On the day that the Dao Conference was about to arrive, a ‘Flawless’ medicinal pill would also be auctioned!
Even a single stone could cause a thousand ripples. This news was like a storm that instantly swept through the entire capital. From small peddlers and pawns to superpowers and sects, all of them knew that the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce had such a pill.
The Flawless pill hasn’t appeared in the world for nearly 100 years. Everyone almost thought that it was made up. How could there be a perfect pill that was without any impurities? Even someone like the Alchemy Emperor could not do it.
Perhaps Flawless pills only existed in legends or ancient books. But now, the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce had released the news that they had a Flawless pill.
All the alchemists from all over the world had heard the news. They were eager to see if this was true. It was a Flawless pill! They wanted to know who had refined it. If they could receive a few pointers from such a big shot, they would probably have no regrets in their lives. One could imagine how important the word ‘Flawless’ was.
With the arrival of this Flasless pill, it could be said that this year’s Dao Conference in the capital was much livelier than the previous years.
…
At this moment, in a blessed land left behind by the ancient times.
Spiritual energy revolved around this place, spurring the growth of all sorts of strange flowers and plants. Some of them were already extinct in the world, only appearing in the kind recorded in ancient books. The road paved with small stones continued to meander into the distance. A faint rustling sound could be heard.
Even the seemingly unremarkable weeds by the road were hundred-year-old Spirit-enlightening Flowers, not to mention those meticulously cultivated medicinal plants. Every single one of them was an extraordinary existence. It could be said that they were priceless treasures.
In the medicinal field, an old man was working, looking like an ordinary farmer. He was tending to the flowers and plants in his hands. However, the aura that he exuded inadvertently showed that he was not ordinary.
“Master, something big has happened!”
An ethereal female voice suddenly sounded. The voice was like a yellow bird coming out of the valley, breaking the original tranquility. The old man’s hand trembled, and the plants fell from his hand to the ground, breaking into pieces.
One had to know that such a small plant was enough to resurrect the flesh and bones of a dead person. Looking at the half-broken stem and leaves, the old man revealed a distressed expression.
