This made many people look uneasy...

But then he changed the subject and continued to add to the discussion.

"If none of the above are available, a high-level Earth-rank combat skill or Seventh Tier Monster Core will also work!"

"High-level Earth-rank combat skill? Seventh Tier Monster Core? Are you crazy?!"

"Even if the Imperial Pill is good, it can't reach the value of a high-level Earth-rank combat skill, right? That's a combat skill that even a truly top-tier power would carefully guard."

"Seventh Tier magical beast is even more impossible; Seventh Tier Monster Core is something only magical beasts at the Dou Zong level possess..."

Upon hearing these transaction demands, some people immediately became restless; how could they possibly agree to such a deal?

Even if the Imperial Pill is incredibly attractive, you can't just charge such an exorbitant price.

They simply couldn't possibly produce it, and even if they could, they wouldn't be willing to trade it, as its value far exceeds that of the Imperial Pill itself.

"..."

Seeing the crowd below discussing amongst themselves, but no one making a bid yet.

Yuan Yi had already anticipated this, since what that person wanted was either too rare or too expensive.

Otherwise, there would be no opportunity to put them up for auction; it's all a gamble to see who has the materials mentioned above. Or perhaps some sucker actually brings out Monster Core and a high-level Earth-rank combat skill.

But this possibility is very low!

However, considering the promise made by the other party that even if the item is not sold at auction, he will still provide a generous reward, the Seven Doors agreed to hold the auction for them.

"Everyone, is there anyone willing to take action? This is a rare top-grade sixth-rank pill, the Imperial Pill. Only the most outstanding Rank 6 Alchemist are capable of refining it. And Rank 6 Alchemist are rare indeed, so getting them to refine the Imperial Pill is even more difficult."

"If we miss this chance, we don't know when we'll meet again."

After waiting for a while without receiving a bid, Yuan Yi had no choice but to ask again.

"Sect Master Yuan, this auction demand is excessive. Even the Imperial Pill shouldn't be worth this price. I'm afraid that apart from forces that possess Dou Zong or even Dou Zun experts, no one else could afford those items."

"At such a price, I think we should just forget about it!"

One of the Dou Huangs couldn't help but speak up, his tone clearly showing strong displeasure. They had come from afar for the Imperial Pill and had prepared a large sum of money.

Unexpectedly, things turned out this way; he didn't even have the right to bid.

"Exactly, the owner of this Imperial Pill has set the bar too high. How could such things be possible under normal circumstances?"

"It would be better to just auction it off with gold coins."

"Yes, Sect Master Yuan, you should talk to the person who made the move again. What he wants is extremely rare..."

With the Douhuang expert speaking up, the others started to clamor, urging them to change the auction method.

"I apologize, everyone... The customer who sold the Imperial Pill is not short of gold coins and specifically requested these items. Otherwise, why would they have entrusted it to us for auction? So please forgive us."

Yuan Yi clasped his hands in a respectful but firm manner, offering a direct rejection of the suggestions. Judging from the gold coin reward offered, it certainly wouldn't be a shortage of gold coins.

"That's a real pity. It seems we're destined to miss out on the Imperial Pill."

"Oh well, what a wasted trip."

Upon hearing Yuan Yi's explanation, many powerful figures sighed.

In that case, they really can't hold the auction. It seems they'll have to find out who sold the pills and then take matters into their own hands by force.

There has never been any Order in the Black Twisting Domain. Since the wealth has already been leaked, it is impossible for it to end so easily.

Just as Yuan Yi was anticipating no bids and the auction would fail, a mysterious voice suddenly rang out.

"We don't have any Seventh Tier Monster Core, how about a sixth-tier Monster Core plus three million gold coins?"

Hearing the sound, everyone looked over.

He was a man dressed in black, his face and origins obscured, but his aura was unmistakably that of a Dou Huang.

But he should only be a one-star Dou Huang.

Even so, it is enough to inspire fear.

"A sixth-tier Monster Core... that probably doesn't meet the seller's requirements..."

Yuan Yi hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, but in the end he shook his head and refused. A sixth-order Monster Core is naturally extremely precious, as it is comparable to the magic Monster Core of a Dou Huang powerhouse.

However, the gap is too large compared to the Seventh Tier.

"Then there's nothing we can do."

Seeing that Yuan Yi disagreed, the man fell silent again.

"..."

Once it was confirmed that no one present was willing to make a bid or could produce the items, Yuan Yi did not delay any longer.

If it were before Yun Li appeared, he would have felt a little regretful that the auction for the Imperial Pill hadn't been completed, but now he didn't care.

The next item is even more valuable, and more importantly, Yun Li's requirements are not so strict, so the auction can be completed.

"Since no one has made a bid, I hereby declare the Imperial Pill unsold..."

"Wait a moment!"

Just as Yuan Yi was about to announce that the Imperial Pill had failed to sell, a voice suddenly called out to him.

Everyone immediately looked over with curiosity. It was a force that should not belong to the Black Twisting Domain, but there were no Dou Huang powerhouses here.

The strongest among them, and the one who spoke, was a Nine-star Dou King.

"Sect Master Yuan, the person who offered the Imperial Pill wants something extremely rare; it's very difficult for anyone to produce it."

"I do have a main ingredient for refining the seventh-grade pill, the Three Abyss Thunder Dragon Pill, the Earth Abyss Thunder Flame Flower. If the other party is willing to exchange it, I can make a move."

The person who spoke frowned slightly, being watched by so many people, but he had to get the Imperial Pill; only in this way could he change his master's situation.

Even though he understood that even if the transaction was completed, bringing it back safely would definitely not be easy.

"Earth Abyss Thunder Flame Flower? Wait a minute, let me ask the guest who sold the Imperial Pill."

Upon hearing the man's offer, Yuan Yi was taken aback. Although it wasn't within the scope of what the man was asking for, it was still an extremely rare Spiritual medicine.

Perhaps the other party is genuinely interested.

Without hesitation, Yuan Yi immediately sent someone to inquire with the seller.

After waiting for a few minutes, a disciple from the Seven Doors walked up to Yuan Yi and quietly reported the result.

Upon hearing the result, Yuan Yi looked thoughtful and turned his gaze back to the person who had made the bid.

"The seller agreed to the exchange."

"Congratulations, young friend, you have successfully won the Imperial Pill!"

He congratulated them verbally, but in Yuan Yi's heart, this group of people wouldn't live much longer.

Successfully acquiring the Imperial Pill is not a good thing; it's a death knell.

Although the Seven Doors couldn't ignore things in Black Seal City because of their own rules, they wouldn't care about anything else once they left the city.

Without the protection of a Dou Huang level expert, and with so many Dou Huang level figures watching, it would be very unlikely that he could successfully leave with the Imperial Pill.

"Things are starting to get interesting..."

Upon discovering that it was a force outside the Black Twisting Domain that had obtained the Imperial Pill, and that the other party did not even have a Dou Huang, Dou Huang powerhouses from all sides began to stir with excitement.

Mad Lion Gang, Earth Flame Sect, Heavenly Yin Sect...

They all directly instructed their men to take the lead and lay in ambush outside the city.

"Sect Master..."

Noticing the clandestine actions of other forces, who were clearly starting to mobilize their forces, the elders of the Rakshasa Gate subconsciously looked at their sect leader.

"They've already made their move, and you've even arranged for people to be stationed outside the city..."

Su Mei leaned back lazily in her chair, raised her right hand and shook it, then gave the instructions.

It's still unclear who will ultimately get the item, but if we don't intervene, she'll truly miss out.

However, compared to the Imperial Pill, she was now more curious about what would come next.

"Yes, Sect Master."

Upon hearing this, the elder immediately led the Rakshasa Gate members to the city gates ahead of them.

"..."

"Everyone, although the Imperial Pill has been successfully traded, don't rush to leave. The items to be auctioned next are even more precious than the Imperial Pill, and they will certainly not disappoint you."

Noticing that many people had already started leaving, seemingly no longer interested in what was to come, or perhaps preparing to snatch the pill, Yuan Yi quickly spoke up to remind them.

"Sect Master Yuan, is there anything better than the Imperial Pill?"

"Yes, hurry up and show it to us. I'm very curious about what kind of thing could replace the Imperial Pill as the final treasure."

"Could it be a seventh-grade elixir?"

"Even among seventh-grade pills, the Imperial Pill should be more attractive to a Dou Huang expert."

Yuan Yi's words raised the expectations of many people, and even some who were originally planning to leave stopped.

Everyone speculated about what treasure would be next. If it was a seventh-grade pill, it would indeed be more precious than the Imperial Pill.

However, there are no Dou Zong experts here. For most Dou Huang experts, seventh-grade pills are not as attractive as Imperial Pill, which directly improve strength.

"Please don't be in a hurry, everyone."

After speaking to the crowd below the stage, Yuan Yi turned around and gave instructions to his servants.

"Go and bring out the treasure!"

"Yes."

The servants hurriedly went backstage to bring the items up.

"It's finally my turn!"

Yun Li, who was lying in Little Fairy Doctor's arms, sat up and became much more serious.

She hadn't been interested in the Imperial Pill at all before, but now that it was finally her turn, she wondered what price it would fetch at auction.

These forces came for the Imperial Pill and have prepared a large amount of gold coins; they shouldn't disappoint her.

By auctioning off these weapons, he not only gained gold coins and valuable items, but also used these people to make the sword famous, achieving two goals at once.

Although swords are external objects, she believed that these people would certainly not be able to refuse them.

Amidst everyone's anticipation, a disciple of the Seven Doors stepped forward, carrying a beautifully crafted long box in both hands.

"The next item to be auctioned is a sword."

Looking at the long box beside him, Yuan Yi reached out and opened it, revealing a Precious Sword with a crimson blade. For some reason, the space around the sword seemed somewhat distorted.

"It's actually a sword?!"

"A weapon? What weapon is more precious than the Imperial Pill?!"

"Sect Master Yuan, you're not joking, are you?!"

Looking at the items that appeared before them, many people couldn't help but look puzzled. In the Dou Huo Continent, weapons were necessary, but the most valuable items were the fighting skill pills.

Ultimately, weapons don't offer much improvement to people.

Especially after reaching the Dou Wang level, it doesn't matter whether you have a weapon or not.

"Don't underestimate it, everyone. It's no ordinary sword; it's a divine sword capable of tearing through space."

"As we all know, only those who have reached the Dou Zong level can touch the power of space, and only Dou Zun can travel through space."

At this point, Yuan Yi deliberately paused for a moment.

It must be said that the weapon provided by Yun Li is terrifying, as it allows people to access abilities that only those above the Dou Zong level possess.

Although it doesn't match the understanding of Law of Space possessed by Dou Zong or Dou Zun powerhouses, it's still enough to make Dou Huang's scalp tingle.

It can be said that as long as he has it, he will no longer be a threat to anyone below the Dou Zong level.

It's not impossible for them to even come into contact with a Dou Zong.

"This Yama Sword has the power to cut through space. Even a Dou Zhe can use it to tear space apart, thereby gaining access to the abilities of a Dou Zong powerhouse ahead of time, and even making it easier for a Dou Huang powerhouse to break through to Dou Zong."

"In addition, this Yama Sword also greatly enhances the user's strength. I have personally verified that it can increase the power of a Dou Huang level expert by three times or more!"
