Chapter 531: Chapter 522: The Sensation Caused by the Elixir

"Young master, do you have something you wish to auction?"

Upon hearing Mo Wangchen’s intent, the servant curiously asked.

Mo Wangchen nodded, "How is the commission fee collected?"

"We charge one-tenth of a percent of the auction proceeds," the servant replied.

Then he led Mo Wangchen to the front of a desk where an elderly man was seated. Judging by his appearance, this person seemed to be the housekeeper of the auction house.

"What does the young friend wish to auction?"

After listening to the servant’s words, the housekeeper approached and inquired of Mo Wangchen.

In Tianxu City, a mix of people gathered, so the housekeeper would not neglect Mo Wangchen due to his age.

Mingfeng Auction had stood strong in Tianxu City for many years, and its foundation was naturally not weak. The elder’s eyes were discerning enough to see that Mo Wangchen was no ordinary person.

"Pill," Mo Wangchen replied indifferently.

"A pill?"

Hearing this, the housekeeper nodded, "Young friend, please wait a moment. Our Mingfeng Auction has hired an Alchemy Master specifically for identifying pills. I will have the master come over."

He then arranged for Mo Wangchen to sit in a waiting area and instructed the servant who had greeted Mo Wangchen to inform the master.

Before long, under the lead of the servant, an elderly man who seemed to be in his fifties approached.

The elder had white hair and was known as Master Mu. He possessed Ninth Grade Alchemy Dao Sills. It was said that he had obtained a Cultivation Technique from an Ancient Ruin, similar to Mo Wangchen’s Pill Scripture, which could temper perception.

Although it was incomplete, he still hoped to advance to the rank of Holy Pill Master.

Usually, if someone brought pills to be auctioned by Mingfeng Auction, those pills were mostly identified personally by Master Mu; however, it was rare for people to bring pills for auction.

Thus, Master Mu’s work was relatively leisurely.

"Master Mu, this young friend is the one who wishes to auction a pill."

Seeing Master Mu approach, the housekeeper who accompanied Mo Wangchen quickly stood up from his seat and greeted him respectfully.

"Hmm."

Master Mu nodded, his gaze indifferent, with an air of Alchemist’s pride on his brows.

He turned his eyes to Mo Wangchen and said indifferently, "Please present the pill."

Mo Wangchen slightly furrowed his brows but still took out three Dao Heart Pills and handed them over.

Master Mu held the pill in his hand and initially glanced at it casually, not paying much attention.

But soon, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He quickly brought the pill to his nose to smell it, exclaiming, "Holy Rank Pill?!"

Holy Rank Pills were not common across the Northern Immortal Domain because such pills could only be refined by Holy Rank Pill Masters.

And even in the vast Northern Immortal Domain, there were only a few Holy Rank Pill Masters.

It went without saying how precious such pills were, and it was no wonder Master Mu reacted in such a manner.

"It is indeed a Holy Rank First Grade pill, and this pill is called a Dao Heart Pill. How should it be priced?" Mo Wangchen inquired.

"May I ask the young friend, where did you acquire this pill?"

Master Mu’s attitude towards Mo Wangchen shifted considerably, retracting the pride belonging to a Pill Master from his face.

In his view, given Mo Wangchen’s age, it was naturally impossible for him to have refined such pills. However, obtaining a Holy Rank Pill indicated that Mo Wangchen must have a Holy Rank Pill Master backing him!

Such a personage would not be one even a Sacred Land would want to provoke.

"What, does Mingfeng Auction need to inquire so clearly in order to agree to auction the item? If that’s the case, I might as well seek assistance elsewhere."

As he spoke, Mo Wangchen stood up from his seat.

"Young friend, please do not be offended. In our Alchemy Dao Realm, those with Holy Rank attainment are revered as grandmasters. I am merely curious about the master who refined these three pills and wish to meet him..."

Master Mu hurriedly explained.

At this point, he was even more convinced of Mo Wangchen’s extraordinary nature.

Previously, with his identity as a Ninth Grade Pill Master, most people he met were courteous and respectful, but Mo Wangchen’s attitude towards him was notably lacking in reverence.

It was imaginable that either he indeed had a Holy Rank Pill Master behind him, or he was an utter fool.

But would someone capable of presenting three Holy Rank Pills be a fool?

Certainly not!

Witnessing the usually aloof Master Mu now so cautiously interacting with this young man left the housekeeper and the servant beside them completely stunned.

After a series of appeasements, Mo Wangchen was finally coaxed back to his original seat.

"This pill is called Dao Heart Pill. Though it is a Holy Rank pill, it is actually effective only on Saint Venerable Realm characters."

"Upon consumption, it allows a person to calm and enter the Dao. A Saint Venerable expert taking this pill when comprehending Laws can attain a deeper insight into Heavenly Dao Laws and increase the chance of perceiving a second Law Anomaly."

Mo Wangchen elaborated fully on the function of the Dao Heart Pill.

"Increase the chance of perceiving a Law Anomaly?!"

Hearing this, not only Master Mu but also the housekeeper and the servant beside him were all shocked, their eyes shining.

Generally, most Saint Venerable experts only had one Law Anomaly. Some monstrously talented prodigies could comprehend two, but no one in the current age had been seen with three Law Anomalies.

The more Law Anomalies one possessed, the stronger they became after proving Emperor.

Typically, those perceiving two Law Anomalies were substantially stronger after proving Emperor than those with one, at least twice as powerful!

If the Dao Heart Pill could indeed increase the probability of perceiving a second Law Anomaly, as Mo Wangchen claimed, it was nothing short of defying the heavens.

If the news spread, it would undoubtedly cause an enormous sensation, as it was essentially a supreme pill for nurturing extraordinary talents!

"It’s difficult to estimate a price, but it should be high. Does the young friend truly intend to auction all three pills?" Master Mu asked.

Mo Wangchen nodded.

"Very well, in that case, our Mingfeng Auction shall release the news, sure to attract the attention of many forces. The more intense the competition, the higher the price of the pills."

Subsequently, Mo Wangchen entrusted the pills to Mingfeng Auction for safekeeping. He naturally was not afraid of what the auction house might do to the pills.

After all, a place like an auction house valued integrity above all. Would Mingfeng Auction have stood firm in Tianxu City for so many years were it not honest?

"What? Pills that can increase the probability of perceiving two Law Anomalies?"

It must be said that Mingfeng Auction’s efficiency was indeed high. Quickly, the news spread through the Ancient Immortal Domain, from one to ten, ten to hundreds, rocking almost half of the Northern Immortal Domain.

Tianxu City had a teleportation array, and on the very day the news broke, countless people transmitted through the array to arrive.

By now, Mingfeng Auction was already packed, with people all inquiring about the authenticity of the Dao Heart Pill news.

The hall was full, unable to accommodate more; many people crowded at the entrance.

A young man was squeezed in the crowd, unable to enter for a long time, feeling very irritated. Being continuously pushed from behind, he finally couldn’t hold back, turned his head, and yelled, "Why do you keep pushing?!"

Behind him was also a man who hesitated for a moment, "Just one..."
