Chapter 257 - 257 257 Nascent Infant Pill

257: Chapter 257: Nascent Infant Pill 257: Chapter 257: Nascent Infant Pill “Wuliang, now that you’ve been promoted to the Pill King, I found something in the Five Emperor Tombs that could be of use to you.”

Then, with a wave of his hand, Long Yan summoned a large cauldron, along with a jade slip.

“This is…

a Heavenly-Level Pill Cauldron!”

The gaze of Long Chen and the other two were instantly attracted to the Sky Lion King Ding.

It was clearly a heavenly spiritual device, especially for Ba Wuliang, whose eyes were widened in disbelief.

This was the ultimate treasure in any alchemist’s eyes.

The Pill King Hall had only one Heavenly-Level Pill Cauldron.

“This cauldron is called ‘Sky Lion King Ding’, and I got it in the Qing Emperor Dojo.

This jade slip contains the alchemy inheritance left by the Qing Emperor,”

Long Yan explained.

“Young Master, are you…

really giving these things…

to me?”

Ba Wuliang swallowed and started stammering.

These things were treasures.

If they were to appear outside, it would cause a sensation.

“If you don’t want them, I can sell them at the auction.”

Long Yan said with a smile.

Thump!

Ba Wuliang stood up, then knelt in front of Long Yan with a thump, swearing to the heavens: “Master, I, Ba Wuliang, swear loyalty to you and the Long Family forever.

If I ever have a change of heart, may I fall into eternal hell!”

“Get up!”

There was a fleeting look of satisfaction in Long Yan’s deep eyes.

He reached out to help Ba Wuliang up and smiled, “If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t give these things to you.

You have a lot of talent in Pill Dao, and I am going to nurture you.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Then, Ba Wuliang carefully packed away the Sky Lion King Cauldron and the jade slip, treating them like treasures.

Long Xinghe was watching all of this with satisfaction.

With Ba Wuliang supporting the Long Family, it was only a matter of time before the family became powerful.

Having suddenly thought of something, Long Xinghe said, “Yan’er, Chen’er, some time ago, our family’s merchant group accidentally came across a Rare Flower.

Even Master Wuliang couldn’t tell what it was.

One of our main purposes of coming here this time is to have you auction off this strange flower.”

“What kind of Rare Flower?”

Long Yan asked curiously.

“Right here!”

Then, Long Xinghe pulled out a storage ring from his pocket and took out a large jade box from inside the ring and handed it to Long Yan.

“This is…”

Long Yan opened the jade box to take a look, and his gaze instantly changed.

Inside the jade box, a flower the size of two hands was quietly lying.

The flower was blood red, with each petal as if carved out of red jade.

Upon closer inspection, an infant seemed to curl up inside the petals, vivid and lifelike.

“What’s this flower?

It’s so strange.”

Long Chen also looked at the strange flower with surprise.

It was the first time he had seen such an odd flower.

“This is a Divine Soul Blood Flower, it’s a treasure.”

Long Yan closed the jade box, saying with excitement.

“Divine Soul Blood Flower?”

Long Chen and the others were somewhat puzzled, not knowing what a Divine Soul Blood Flower was.

“The Divine Soul Blood Flower…”

Then, Long Yan gave them a simple introduction to the Divine Soul Blood Flower.

The Divine Soul Blood Flower was a rare Sixth-Grade Medicinal Ingredient, highly valuable.

Considering the Shenwu Continent, it’s probably almost the top medicinal material, and even Lanling City might not have it.

For a Martial King trying to condense the soul, and a Martial Venerable trying to cultivate an attribute, the breakthrough from Martial King to Martial Venerable was a natural chasm.

The Nascent Infant Pill could increase the chance of a Martial King breaking through to Martial Venerable by 30%.

The Divine Soul Blood Flower was the main ingredient for refining the Nascent Infant Pill.

“I didn’t expect this strange flower to be a Divine Soul Blood Flower.”

Long Chen and the others were all taken aback.

Long Xinghe and Ba Wuliang knew that this Strange Flower was a treasure, but they hadn’t expected it to have such a significant origin.

“I happen to have the other medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Nascent Infant Pill in my possession.

If I refine this Divine Soul Blood Flower into a Nascent Infant Pill and then auction it off at the auction, it will definitely cause a sensation,” Long Yan said.

He had obtained quite a few medicinal ingredients from his Qing Emperor Dojo, including the auxiliary ingredients for refining the Nascent Infant Pill.

With the nine petals of the Divine Soul Blood Flower, nine Nascent Infant Pills could be refined.

Once the Nascent Infant Pill appears at the auction, it would inevitably cause a sensation and fetch a sky-high price.

“That would be best,” Long Xinghe completely agreed.

…

“This should be the place.”

The next day, Long Yan and Long Chen arrived at a large building, which served as the temporary acquisition point for the auction.

Its purpose was mainly to collect auction items.

Anyone with items they wanted to auction off could bring them here for registration.

Once they meet the auction requirements, they can become auction items.

This grand auction was held in Shenwu Continent once every ten years, and everyone came with a heavy gold to auction off their treasures.

It’s the best choice.

“Young masters, may I ask what items you want to auction?” As soon as Long Yan and Long Chen entered the hall, a charming maiden came up to them with a sweet smile on her face.

“This is the item I would like to auction.” Long Yan took out a jade vial and handed it over.

“This is…” The maiden’s face went through a swift change after opening the vial to take a look and then she said, “Please follow me, gentlemen.

I will take you to meet our elders.”

In a short while, the maiden led Long Yan and Long Chen into a VIP Room.

“Please wait a moment, young masters.

I will go and fetch our elders now,” said the maiden as she took out some fresh spirit fruits for them and then left the room.

Before long, two men walked in from outside.

Long Yan was familiar with one of them — it was Master Lu Xuanming of the Spirit Array.

The other was an elderly man in his sixties, thin and clad in a black robe.

This was a Ninth Layer Wuking, whose breath felt extremely strange.

“The Asura King!” Even though Long Yan had never met the Asura King, he recognized him at once.

The two most powerful individuals in Lanling City were Lu Xuanming and Asura King.

“So, it’s the Young Master of the Pill King Hall and the young master of Martial God Palace.

I heard that you have a pill that you want to auction.

Please show it to us,” Lu Xuanming and Asura King sat opposite Long Yan and the former began to speak.

Getting to know from the maiden that the pill Long Yan had might be an honorable-grade elixir, both had hurried over.

“The pill is in here,” Long Yan took out the jade vial.

“This is…” Asura King’s face changed instantly when he opened the vial, and his breathing became rapid.

“Nascent Infant Pill,” Lu Xuanming involuntarily exclaimed, he held his breath in shock.

The pill was the size of a pigeon egg, smooth and shiny like jade.

At the center of the pill, a baby was curled up, appearing as if it were alive — a typical hallmark of the Nascent Infant Pill, which is an honorable-grade elixir.

“No, this is…

a Supreme Elixir!”

Lu Xuanming and Asura King exchanged a glance, both saw a shocked look in each other’s eyes.

This Nascent Infant Pill was not only an honorable-grade elixir, but it was also a supreme Elixir of superior quality.

In the Shenwu Continent, there simply did not exist any honorable-grade elixir, let alone a supreme one.

Both of them have even thought about claiming the Nascent Infant Pill for themselves, for it was truly a rare gem — one that was not only difficult to find but also to seek.
