The Auction of Rank 7 Pills Ends!

Although the Cloud Mist Sect had successfully won the Bone-Melting Blood-Fusion Pill, Yun Yun, as the Sect Leader, did not rush to leave after the auction concluded.

Instead, she sought out Yao Chen and brought up the matter of Yun Shan's invitation for him to visit the Cloud Mist Sect.

She waited in anticipation for Yao Chen's reply.

However, Yun Yun felt that, in all likelihood... the probability of him agreeing was not very high.

As it turned out, hearing Yao Chen speak only served to confirm the thoughts and suspicions Yun Yun held in her heart.

"Not interested." Yao Chen spoke indifferently. He rejected Yun Yun directly and then rose to leave. Although Yun Shan was a Dou Zong powerhouse, he had been forcibly elevated to that level through the methods of the Soul Hall; he was not a genuine, authentic Dou Zong.

Furthermore, as the Cloud Mist Sect was an early-stage antagonist faction, Yao Chen naturally held no good impression of them, so he refused outright.

For a Dou Sheng powerhouse like himself to visit their tiny Cloud Mist Sect—would that not be a form of humiliation? Was his Cloud Mist Sect even worthy?

Although Yun Yun had been rejected, she was not surprised. Finally, she said, "Mr. Yao, our Cloud Mist Sect feels deeply honored to have been able to auction for a Rank 7 pill this time."

"Even if Mr. Yao has no intention of visiting our Cloud Mist Sect, please do not hesitate to speak up should you have any need of us in the future."

"As long as it is something within the capabilities of the Cloud Mist Sect, we will not refuse, and we will go all out to help Mr. Yao resolve any matter."

Yun Yun emphasized, "Although our Cloud Mist Sect cannot be considered a top-tier faction on the Dou Qi Continent, within the Jia Ma Empire, we still carry a fair amount of weight."

"Even the Imperial Family of the Jia Ma Empire must weigh their options when it comes to our Cloud Mist Sect."

After saying this, Yun Yun took Nalan Yanran, greeted Yao Chen, and bowed before departing!

"Mr. Yao, we shall take our leave now and return to the sect."

"If you are interested in the future, you are welcome to visit our Cloud Mist Sect. We will certainly receive you with the courtesy due to an honored guest. Farewell."

Nalan Yanran also bowed to show her respect for Yao Chen. Within the Jia Ma Empire, he was a rare Rank 7 Alchemist. Although Nalan Yanran was willful and arrogant, she still possessed a certain degree of discernment.

"Mr. Yao, we shall take our leave." After the master and disciple bid their farewells, they left the Miteer Auction House and returned to the Cloud Mist Sect.

At this moment, inside the Cloud Mist Sect, Yun Leng, as the Grand Elder, looked at Yun Shan before him and sighed. Was this the pressure of a Dou Zong powerhouse? Truly, his bearing was extraordinary.

Yun Leng spoke, addressing Yun Shan!

"Old Sect Leader, I never expected you to truly break through the barrier of the Dou Huang and enter the realm of the Dou Zong. It seems that from now on, no faction in the Jia Ma Empire will dare to look down upon our Cloud Mist Sect."

"Even the Imperial Family of the Jia Ma Empire, especially that old fellow Jia Xing Tian, must treat our Cloud Mist Sect with great importance," Yun Leng said.

The other elders nodded in admiration, chiming in from the sidelines!

"That's right. From now on, our Cloud Mist Sect will surely become the greatest power in the Jia Ma Empire, bar none."

"Even the Imperial Family will have to step aside."

Yun Shan did not care about these things. He only wanted to know how the matter went now that Yun Yun and Yanran had made a trip to Wutan City to attend the auction for the Rank 7 pill at the Miteer Auction House today.

A short while later, Yun Yun and her disciple Nalan Yanran had already left Wutan City and returned to the Cloud Mist Sect.

"Yun'er, was the Rank 7 pill successfully auctioned?" Yun Shan asked.

As he looked at Yun Yun, he saw her nod and immediately produce a pill to show him.

"Teacher, this is the Rank 7 pill, the Bone-Melting Blood-Fusion Pill. It is said to be a peak Rank 7 pill; if forged repeatedly with an Exotic Fire, it could even reach the Rank 8 level. However, there are very few Rank 8 Alchemists on the Dou Qi Continent!"

After taking the pill, Yun Shan examined it immediately. Although he was not an alchemist!

He was well aware of how difficult it was to refine a Rank 7 pill!

Currently, the strongest alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire, the Pill King Gu He, was merely a Rank 6.

Yet, in a tiny place like Wutan City, there had appeared an alchemist powerhouse capable of refining a Rank 7 pill.

And, like himself, he possessed the strength of a Dou Zong.

Yun Shan muttered to himself in his heart, considering a question: what could he do to recruit this alchemist powerhouse?

If he could get a Rank 7 Alchemist to join their Cloud Mist Sect, let alone in the small Jia Ma Empire, even on the entire Dou Qi Continent.

Their Cloud Mist Sect would have the capital to contend with other factions on the continent.

Deeply concerned, Yun Shan looked at Yun Yun and said, "Yun'er, before you left, did you convey the message I asked you to give to Mr. Yao?"

"Is Mr. Yao willing to come and visit our Cloud Mist Sect?" Yun Shan asked.

Yun Yun replied, "Teacher, I have already mentioned it to Mr. Yao, but Mr. Yao does not seem interested in our Cloud Mist Sect, and thus he refused."

Yun Shan was not surprised by this result; after all, the other party was a Dou Zong powerhouse and a Rank 7 Alchemist!

Such a powerhouse was capable of founding his own sect and becoming a power in his own right.

Naturally, there was no need to join their Cloud Mist Sect, so being rejected by Yao Chen was within Yun Shan's expectations.

Yun Shan replied, "However, if there is an opportunity in the future, I would like to get to know Mr. Yao and see which of us two Dou Zongs is stronger."

"I wonder what star-level Dou Zong Mr. Yao is. One of these days, I must spar with him," Yun Shan muttered to himself in his heart.

Today, the Rank 7 pill auction held by the Miteer Auction House concluded.

After the various families and factions returned, it took less than half a day for Yao Chen's reputation to soar, not just in Wutan City, but throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire.

In just half a day, many people in the Jia Ma Empire heard that a Rank 7 Alchemist had appeared in the tiny Wutan City.

Fama, as the President of the Alchemist Guild, was naturally incredibly excited and thrilled. As the president, he was only a Rank 5 Alchemist himself.

If he could invite Yao Chen to join their Jia Ma Empire Alchemist Guild, it would be a great honor, but Fama only dared to think about it in his heart; he did not dare to hope for it.

The man was a Rank 7 Alchemist; how could he possibly join their small, broken guild?

The Alchemist Guild of the Jia Ma Empire seemingly had nothing to offer Mr. Yao; whatever they could provide, he likely wouldn't even look at.

After the auction ended, Yao Chen immediately saw the system rewards before his eyes.
