"What? Medicine God Hall?"

"Isn't that one of the Upper Seven Sects of the continent, the divine sect of Alchemists from the legends?"

"Yao Feng, the legendary First Elder of the Medicine God Hall, is a Peerless Douluo known as the Pill God. Though not truly a god, it is said that his pill-crafting has reached a transcendent, godlike realm. Even the Empress of the Empire invited him to serve as an Imperial consecrated elder, making him the foremost of the Empire's pill-crafting consecrated elders!"

"Even the Empress treats someone like him with courtesy. He is truly one of the continent's supreme figures. Why would he appear here?"

"Could he be someone with the same name? I simply cannot believe a person like that would come here!"

"It should be him. Tyrant Blade Douluo said so himself—how could it be false?"

Inside the mysterious private room.

Yao Feng's voice rang out:

"This old man came to the Eastern Martial Region some time ago in search of a medicinal herb. When I passed near the Land of Hundred Cities, I happened to hear about the Langya Auction House. I heard they were auctioning an item greatly beneficial to Super Douluos, so I came on a whim!"

Tyrant Blade Douluo Dao Yuan's heart immediately sank.

He had come for that mysterious auction item. After all, he was a Super Douluo himself, and perhaps it would be exactly what he needed.

He had originally thought that he would be the strongest person here, but he had never expected such a major figure to arrive.

In the Eastern Martial Region, Dao Yuan knew that few could compare to him in status, position, or wealth.

Yet compared with Yao Feng, who had long been known as the Pill God, he fell far short.

In terms of status and position, Yao Feng was the First Elder of the Medicine God Hall, one of the continent's Upper Seven Sects, and also a consecrated elder personally invited by the Empress of the Empire.

In terms of wealth, as the Pill God, any pill Yao Feng casually refined could shake the continent and make even Title Douluos flock after it.

Even in cultivation, Yao Feng was a Peerless Douluo, far stronger than him.

If Yao Feng joined the auction, Tyrant Blade Douluo understood that he would have no chance at all.

Though he was unwilling, he did not dare reveal the slightest hint of it.

He could only respectfully greet the other private room:

"So it truly is Senior Pill God. This junior, Dao Yuan, pays his respects!"

"How could this old man be considered a Pill God? I cannot even refine divine pills!"

Yao Feng replied:

"Even these Level 3 Soul Power Pills being auctioned now are something this old man has never refined. If anyone deserves to be called the Pill God, the person who refined these Level 3 Soul Power Pills is surely more qualified!"

Yao Feng's words elevated everyone's understanding of these pills to another level.

Even Yao Feng, the Pill God revered across the continent, had never refined them. These pills were indeed extraordinary.

With the Pill God Yao Feng participating in the bidding, no one else continued to bid.

Three pills, three hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.

This price had already greatly surpassed the pills' inherent value.

Everyone understood that the pills themselves were certainly not worth that much. The reason they were bidding was mainly because of their added value.

First, the potential of the person consuming the pills. The earlier one took them and reached Soul Power Level 39, the greater one's potential would surpass others.

For Soul Masters, cultivation generally became more difficult with age.

If one could reach a higher Soul Power Level earlier, one would have a greater chance of breaking through to become a Title Douluo.

Most of those present were bidding to nurture their descendants. It was an investment—if their descendants could become Title Douluos, then everything would be worth it.

Of course, quite a few people were hoping to study these pills and uncover their principles, ideally reproducing the refinement method.

That way, they could refine them endlessly and gain limitless wealth.

Shangguan Xiu was one of them.

The leaders, sect masters, and clan heads of many major factions had much the same idea.

Even Yao Feng himself.

He also had such thoughts to some extent.

However, as the Pill God, he did not lack wealth. He naturally wanted to use this pill to see whether he could comprehend a different refinement technique and improve his own pill-crafting ability.

That was precisely why this bottle of pills was worth so much.

In terms of actual usefulness, it certainly was not worth three hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.

With three hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, one might even have a chance to purchase an eighth- or ninth-grade pill.

No one else joined the bidding. In the end, this bottle containing three Level 3 Soul Power Pills was won by Yao Feng!

"Yao Feng, Medicine God Hall!"

Lin Shu looked toward one of the private rooms, then glanced at Su Qian.

Su Qian claimed to be from the Imperial royal family.

She had happened to see such pills before, while Yao Feng was an Imperial consecrated elder.

Lin Shu guessed that there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that Yao Feng had been summoned by Su Qian.

Otherwise, with Yao Feng's status, even if he heard of an auction item useful to Super Douluos, he probably would not be very interested.

He was a Peerless Douluo. Even if he truly had come to the Eastern Martial Region to search for medicinal herbs, he would not have come here.

Su Qian must have been involved.

"To be able to summon an Imperial consecrated elder, Su Qian's identity is clearly not simple. She is more than merely a member of the royal family!"

Lin Shu guessed that Su Qian must hold a rather high position within the royal family.

"Su Qian, Su Yao?"

"Could she be the Empress's daughter?"

"Yet I have never heard that the Empress had any descendants, nor have there been rumors of her marriage!"

Lin Shu shook his head and did not dwell on it.

Su Qian had indirectly helped Lin Shu this time.

With an old fellow like Yao Feng here, perhaps the following auction items would all sell for more than expected.

Anyone called the Pill God certainly would not lack money.

The auction of the Level 3 Soul Power Pills came to an end.

Next came the third auction item.

A maid brought the third auction item onto the auction stage.

Su Qian did not hesitate.

She directly removed the protective cover, revealing the third auction item before everyone's eyes.

"The third auction item is now displayed before you. I believe you have all clearly seen what it is!"

"That's right, someone has already said it. This is a Soul Bone!"

"As Soul Masters, everyone should understand the rarity and importance of Soul Bones!"

"Now, let me briefly introduce this Soul Bone!"

After a pause.

Su Qian continued:

"Everyone should know that there are many types of Soul Beasts. Among them!"

"There are beast-type Soul Beasts, plant-type Soul Beasts, and sea beasts!"

"Among beast-type Soul Beasts, the Nine Netherworld Python of Nine Netherworld Cave, the Li Dragon of Li Long Stream, and the White Tiger of White Tiger Ridge are the finest!"

"These three types of Soul Beasts are top-tier Soul Beasts. At the ten-thousand-year level, they are enough to rival ordinary Soul Beasts at the fifty-thousand-year or even hundred-thousand-year level!"

"The Soul Bone before you came from a ten-thousand-year Nine Netherworld Python. It is a Nine Netherworld Python Torso Soul Bone!"

As Su Qian finished her measured introduction.

For a moment.

Astonished cries rose involuntarily throughout the auction hall, including from the private rooms.
