Looking at the magnificent golden cauldron before him, Gu He could not help but sigh in admiration.

For an alchemist, a good medicinal cauldron is of vital importance.

It can be said that a medicinal cauldron is one of the most important possessions in an alchemist's hands.

A high-quality cauldron can significantly increase an alchemist's success rate in refining pills.

"Boss Ye, did you just say that this cauldron is the Dragon Soul Cauldron, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking?" At this, Gu He recalled what Ye Yun had just said, and a look of shock flashed across his face.

As a Tier 6 Alchemist, Gu He had naturally heard of the legendary Heavenly Cauldron Ranking.

However, that was limited to mere hearsay.

As for what specific cauldrons were on the list, he was completely ignorant.

In the world of alchemy, the cauldrons on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking hold a status similar to the Heavenly Flames on the Heavenly Flame Ranking; they are all items of legend.

Ye Yun nodded and said, "That is correct. This is indeed the Dragon Soul Cauldron, ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking."

"It really is a cauldron from the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking, and it's the one ranked fourth at that."

After receiving confirmation from Ye Yun, Gu He's heart began to race with excitement.

In the mind of every alchemist, the legendary cauldrons on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking are supreme sacred objects.

Yet now, such a sacred object had actually fallen into his own hands; how could Gu He not be overwhelmed with excitement?

"Boss Ye, would you mind introducing this Dragon Soul Cauldron to me?"

Gu He stared at the Dragon Soul Cauldron for a moment, then asked Ye Yun with a hint of embarrassment.

As an alchemist, needing someone else to introduce a medicinal cauldron was truly embarrassing for Gu He.

However, he had never even heard of this Dragon Soul Cauldron, let alone seen it, so how could he know its specific functions?

Ye Yun naturally would not refuse; as the boss, he had an obligation to introduce products to his customers.

Thus, Ye Yun glanced at the Dragon Soul Cauldron and immediately began his introduction: "This Dragon Soul Cauldron was forged in the ancient era by a Dragon Emperor, who used ancient exotic iron fused with the essence of a powerful dragon."

"As for its functions, there are many, so I will simply introduce you to the three most significant ones."

"First, it can increase an alchemist's success rate in refining pills."

"Second, since the Dragon Soul Cauldron was created by a Dragon Emperor, it contains a potent dragon aura. When infused with Dou Qi, it can release dragon pressure to suppress all magical beasts."

"Third, it contains the essence of a dragon within. As long as you drip dragon blood into it, you can awaken the dragon essence and use it for your own purposes."

Ye Yun kept it brief, using only a few sentences to explain the origin and functions of the Dragon Soul Cauldron to Gu He.

After hearing Ye Yun's introduction, the look of shock on Gu He's face grew even more intense.

This Dragon Soul Cauldron actually possessed so many functions.

Moreover, each function was truly extraordinary.

It was truly worthy of being ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking.

After the shock subsided, a wave of wild joy surged in Gu He's heart.

Such a treasure now belonged to him; what could be more joyful than this?

Gu He was confident that with the aid of this Dragon Soul Cauldron, his alchemy skills would reach a new level, perhaps even allowing him to break through to the realm of a Tier 7 Alchemist in a short time.

A Tier 7 Alchemist—even across the entire continent, that was considered a person of status.

At the thought of this, the envy, jealousy, and hatred Gu He felt toward Nalan Yanran diminished significantly.

Although Nalan Yanran's luck was heaven-defying, he didn't seem to be doing too badly himself.

Having obtained the Dragon Soul Cauldron, Gu He felt quite satisfied.

"Alright, the jars for today have all been sold. Everyone, please return; this shop is closing for the day." At this moment, Ye Yun spoke, directly beginning to usher his guests out.

He was already impatient to go back and open his own exclusive jars.

Hearing this, Gu He immediately snapped back to reality, stepped forward to gently stroke the Dragon Soul Cauldron, and then stored the entire cauldron into his Storage Ring.

"Boss Ye, you seem to have forgotten something, haven't you?" At this, Yun Yun remembered her VIP card and immediately reminded Ye Yun.

Nalan Yanran also reacted, nodding quickly as she said, "That's right, Boss Ye, what about our VIP cards?"

Ye Yun smiled slightly and said, "Rest assured, you won't be left out."

As soon as he finished speaking, two golden cards appeared in Ye Yun's hand. With a flick of his finger, they flew toward Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran respectively.

Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran took the golden cards with some excitement and examined them closely.

They saw that the golden cards had nothing particularly flashy about them; they looked as if they were made of pure gold, with only the names "Yun Yun" and "Nalan Yanran" written on them.

Holding the Level 1 VIP Card in her hand, Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun were filled with excitement.

With this Level 1 VIP Card, even if Ye Yun were to leave this place, they would still have one opportunity to open a jar every month in the future.

"VIP card?"

"May I ask, Boss Ye, what is this VIP card?"

Looking at the golden cards in the hands of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, intuition told Gu He that this must be something extraordinary, so he quickly asked.

Ye Yun glanced at him and spoke, "Those who hold a VIP Card, no matter where they are, can instantly appear inside my shop as long as they activate the card—provided, of course, that I have already opened the Gate of Opening."

"Furthermore, those who hold a VIP Card possess the right of priority purchase; the higher the level of the VIP Card, the greater the rights enjoyed."

Ye Yun explained the function of the VIP Card indifferently.

"It even grants priority purchase?" Upon hearing Ye Yun's words, a flash of surprise immediately crossed the eyes of Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun; Ye Yun had not mentioned this right to her last night.

Hearing this, Gu He's eyes also lit up; he had not expected the VIP Card to have such a miraculous function.

Gu He had long known that Ye Yun would only be staying at the Misty Cloud Sect for three days.

He had been worrying about where he would go to find Ye Yun to open jars in the future, never expecting that there would be such a miraculous item as a VIP Card.

"Boss Ye, could you also gift me a VIP Card?" Gu He hurriedly asked Ye Yun.

"Apologies, you do not yet possess the qualifications to obtain a VIP Card." Ye Yun shook his head, directly rejecting Gu He's request.

"Ah?... Why is that? Then how do they have one?" Upon hearing this, Gu He was momentarily stunned, then asked with confusion.

Ye Yun explained, "Only after spending five hundred thousand gold coins at this shop can one be qualified to receive a Level 1 VIP Card."

"What?"

"One must spend five hundred thousand gold coins to obtain a Level 1 VIP Card?"

Hearing this, Gu He was slightly taken aback, and a look of disappointment immediately appeared on his face.

Currently, he had only bought two jars here, spending a total of only two hundred thousand gold coins; he was still a long way off from five hundred thousand.

"Boss Ye, could you make an exception? I can spend extra money to buy a VIP Card." Gu He looked at Ye Yun, holding onto a glimmer of hope.

Unfortunately, Ye Yun shook his head without hesitation: "Apologies, VIP Cards are gifted, not sold."
