The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 990: Chapter 987: Crazy Bidding_1 Chapter 990: Chapter 987: Crazy Bidding_1 Ordinary people wouldn’t consider this to be a big deal, but those who truly understood knew how precious and rare this was. It meant that the person’s understanding of this elixir had reached perfection and excellence, and their standard had surpassed the level of elixirs they were refining by at least one grade.

Now, it depends on what grade of elixir Yang Chen has refined.

If Yang Chen refined a third-grade elixir, then his level would be at least that of a fourth-grade alchemist. If he refined a fourth-grade elixir, his level would be at least that of a fifth-grade alchemist. And so on.

Everyone was watching Yang Chen intently, waiting for the result to be revealed.

The Jinling Saintess was likewise in suspense. She couldn’t help but wonder if Yang Chen had really refined the Earth Jade Pill.

At this moment, Yang Chen’s alchemy was completed, and the pill fragrance dispersed. He stared at the alchemy furnace without looking away, then lifted the lid of the furnace.

Due to the constraints of the Pill Dao Conference, his pill refining process had to be public, and the results of his refining should also be public. Simply put, he had to show how many pills he had made, or it would not conform to the rules of the Pill Dao Conference.

After all, the Pill Dao Conference was meant to showcase an alchemist’s skills and standards.

So when Yang Chen was refining, he purposely “made mistakes” several times to adjust the final outcome. Originally, he should have been able to make nine Earth Jade Pills from the materials provided, but he reduced the result to five.

However, it was difficult for others to keep up with his standards. Even with the “mistakes,” his alchemy skills appeared flawless in the eyes of others.

At this moment, Yang Chen poured the resulting pills from the furnace.

Five Earth Jade Pills lay perfectly intact in his hand, the pill fragrance filling the air. The pills even emitted a glow, representing the effects of the medicine within.

When the five Earth Jade Pills appeared, those who were initially skeptical and onlookers all had their mouths agape and their eyes widened in shock, as they were truly stunned by Yang Chen’s pill refining results.

“This… this!” Many martial artists were dumbfounded.

“That’s an Earth Jade Pill, right? I’m not seeing things, am I?”

“It should be correct; it’s indeed an Earth Jade Pill. And it doesn’t look like it was accidentally made. He made five in one go!”

“How is this possible! Yang Xilin is supposed to be a genius martial artist, how did he suddenly come out with such amazing alchemy skills? Is this a joke?”

“Amazing is an understatement. Earth Jade Pills, do you know what grade of elixir that is? It’s a ninth-grade pill, and it’s even a high-level ninth-grade pill at that. He made five in one go, which means his alchemy skills are more than enough to protect his Earth-grade title!”

The Jinling Saintess was also shocked by Yang Chen’s prowess.

“Young Master Yang, you… you’re actually an alchemist too!” Ruan Jinling’s mouth opened in astonishment, her surprised expression making her look even more adorable.

Yang Chen coughed and said, “I learned some basic alchemy skills in the past and am just showing them off in front of Miss Ruan, I hope you don’t mind!”

Ruan Jinling couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Yang Chen.

She was certain that if other alchemists heard Yang Chen’s words, they would definitely criticize him. Was this really just “showing off”? If other alchemists were able to refine a ninth-grade pill, they would be over the moon with excitement. Yet, this guy could remain so calm.

From the looks of it, no one in the entire Pill Dao Conference could suppress Yang Chen’s limelight anymore.

Except for that Earth-grade alchemist, Yu Hua Tuo, who hadn’t made a move yet.

“Master Yang, I want that Earth Jade Pill.”

“I want to buy it!”

“This Earth Jade Pill is mine! I’ll pay one thousand top-grade spirit stones for it!” Many Earth Martial Realm warriors raised their voices, even willing to take out their entire savings.

Many of them had been stuck in their cultivation for a long time, unable to break through. An Earth Jade Pill was precisely what they needed to advance to the next level.

If they progressed, they might even enter the Heaven Martial Realm! If they were lucky enough to enter the Heaven Martial Realm, they would rise to the top. The difference between the Earth Martial Realm and the Heaven Martial Realm was only one character, but the gap between them was enormous.

The former was indeed capable of achieving greatness, but the latter was admired by all. This was the reason why so many Earth Martial Realm warriors were going crazy over the Earth Jade Pills. Seeing these pills made them more excited than even their own wives and children.

“One thousand top-grade spirit stones? That’s hardly impressive. I’ll pay one thousand five!”

“I’ll pay two thousand!”

Many people were already frantically bidding.

Seeing this scene, Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation. He thought for a moment and said, “Everyone, out of the five Earth Jade Pills, I need to submit one to Long Wind Main City, keep one for myself, and gift two of them away. I’m only left with one. Whoever bids the highest will get it. As for the other four, I won’t be selling them.”

It was not in his intention to raise the price of the pill, but he genuinely held such thoughts.

At this moment, Yang Chen placed three of the pills in his bag and handed one to the Jinling Saintess.

“Miss Ruan, take this Earth Jade Pill,” Yang Chen said. “Consider it a gift from me.”

“Young Master Yang… what do you mean by this?” Ruan Jinling’s cheeks flushed, and her heart pounded. She wouldn’t deny that she was tempted by the Earth Jade Pill.

Although she had vast knowledge and experience, the Earth Jade Pill was still valuable enough to fetch a high price at auction, possibly even up to twenty thousand. Yang Chen was surprisingly willing to give it to her.

The cherished value of the treasure aside, did Yang Chen have feelings for her?

Ruan Jinling couldn’t help but speculate.

Yang Chen smiled and said, “Miss Ruan, I was able to acquire the pill thanks to your help. Naturally, you should have a share in it. And in any case, you will need it eventually.”

Ruan Jinling took a deep breath and indeed realized that she would need this pill at some point.

With that in mind, she nodded gently, “Thank you, Young Master Yang. I will accept the pill.”

She felt increasingly that befriending Yang Chen was a wise decision for her.

Meanwhile, the only remaining Earth Jade Pill was undoubtedly being bid up to exorbitant prices. If Yang Chen had sold the four pills, people would have saved some room for bargaining. But Yang Chen was only selling one.

This meant that there was no other chance for them to buy another one. Who would dare hesitate?

What’s more, Earth Jade Pills were in high demand and difficult to come by.

“I bid thirteen thousand top-grade spirit stones.”

“I bid fifteen thousand!”

A number of Earth Martial Realm warriors had already gone red-eyed as they pushed the bidding price beyond ten thousand top-grade spirit stones.
