The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1475: Chapter 1475: Of Course I Refined Them Myself

Upon hearing Jing Yan announce the imminent start of the Divine Pill auction, many martial artists’ eyes lit up, collectively turning their attention to Jing Yan.

Previously, the news they received from the All Paths Spirit Mountain was somewhat vague, but they were certain that at least a hundred Heavenly Pills would be auctioned at this All Paths Conference. Just for these hundred Heavenly Pills, their journey to the All Paths Spirit Mountain was well worth it.

As Jing Yan spoke, he had already taken out several jade bottles, neatly placing them on the long table before him.

”Fellow Daoists, please pay attention. Inside each of these jade bottles in front of me is one Heavenly Pill. There are exactly one hundred Heavenly Pills. The auction now begins, with no reserve price.” Jing Yan surveyed the entire crowd with his gaze, pointing to the jade bottles as he spoke.

The crowd instantly erupted in an uproar.

No one expected that the first elixirs Sage Master Jing Yan would present would be the top-level Divine Pills, the Heavenly Pills, and all one hundred of them at once. After the Heavenly Pills are auctioned, what kind of elixirs will Sage Master Jing Yan bring out next?

The following elixirs can’t be much inferior to the Heavenly Pills, can they?

The crowd began to get excited and geared up.

”Sage Master Jing Yan!”

At this moment, Elder Yan Bin from the West Branch Spirit Mountain spoke up, his gaze fixed on Jing Yan.

”Does Elder Yan Bin have something to say?” Jing Yan turned to look at him.

Now, Jing Yan recognized all the important figures from the four branches of Ling Mountain—East, South, West, and North.

”I would like to ask Sage Master Jing Yan if our East, South, West, and North branches of Ling Mountain may participate in this auction?” asked Yan Bin with determination.

Even someone like Yan Bin was deeply tempted by the Heavenly Pills.

As Yan Bin spoke, the expressions of Master Ma Zhi and others also changed. Obviously, they also wanted to know whether members of the All Paths Sacred Land like themselves could participate in this bidding.

”No!” Jing Yan shook his head directly.

”The elixirs in this auction are only available to martial artists or forces outside the All Paths Sacred Land. Members of the All Paths Sacred Land are not allowed to participate in the bidding.” Jing Yan stated seriously.

Elder Yan Bin’s face immediately turned somewhat unsightly.

Gritting his teeth, he said, ”Sage Master Jing Yan, I don’t quite understand. The Heavenly Pills are top-level divine pills, beneficial for the cultivation of God Lords at the Emperor level and even the Divine Sovereign level. I don’t understand why the Holy Master would disallow participation!”

Elder Yan Bin spoke with a tone of dissatisfaction.

The loose cultivators in All Paths Square, along with members of the seven first-class forces, looked towards Elder Yan Bin and Jing Yan, the Holy Master of the All Paths Sacred Land.

Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

”Elder Ruo Bing, please explain the reason to Elder Yan Bin,” Jing Yan turned to look at Supreme Elder Ruo Bing from the All Paths Spirit Mountain.

Ruo Bing cleared her throat softly before speaking, ”The Holy Master has already prepared a variety of top-level divine pills, including the Heavenly Pills, for the four branches of Ling Mountain. Each branch will be allocated fifty Heavenly Pills. Naturally, the Holy Master would not shortchange his own people.”

”Ah?”

”What?”

Everyone showed expressions of surprise.

Four branches of Ling Mountain, with each branch receiving fifty Heavenly Pills, amounting to a total of over two hundred pills. Moreover, the Heavenly Pills are just one of the kinds of pills. According to Elder Ruo Bing, there are other top-level divine pills.

What a grand gesture!

This Sage Master Jing Yan really is magnanimous! But, where exactly did Sage Master Jing Yan acquire so many top-level divine pills?

After hearing Elder Ruo Bing’s words, Elder Yan Bin’s face turned red with some embarrassment.

”Forgive me, Holy Master; I was too bold,” Elder Yan Bin apologized difficultly.

Ma Zhi and others breathed a sigh of relief, feeling somewhat fortunate that they had not hurried to inquire. If they had, they would have been the ones embarrassed now.

”Sage Master Jing Yan, I am Sect Master Ding Luo from the Purple Beauty Sect. May I ask the Holy Master how you acquired such an abundance of top-level divine pills?” Sect Master Ding Luo asked loudly.

”Sect Master Ding Luo, this question lacks some interest. Naturally, these pills were refined by myself,” Jing Yan responded with a smile to Sect Master Ding Luo.

”What? Personally refined?”

”Sage Master Jing Yan, could you be a Holy Alchemist?”

”This...”

”How is that possible?” Sect Master Ding Luo gaped.

Ninety-nine percent of the people in attendance displayed looks of astonishment, including many elders from the All Paths Spirit Mountain who looked at their Holy Master Jing Yan in disbelief. Before this, they did not know that Sage Master Jing Yan could refine top-level divine pills.

Elder Chui Feng of the Divine Emperor realm also gazed at Jing Yan with slight surprise.

Previously, he personally verified Jing Yan’s strength. Although he was at the Divine Sovereign realm, he could face Divine Emperor unfazed. Martial Arts Cultivation was no longer a question. Based on this alone, coupled with Jing Yan’s demonstrated capabilities, Elder Chui Feng deemed Jing Yan fit to serve as the Holy Master of the All Paths Sacred Land.

It was unexpected to find out that Sage Master Jing Yan’s prowess not only lay in Martial Arts Cultivation but also as a Pill Master, specifically one capable of refining top-level divine pills. Refining top-level divine pills is a hallmark of a Holy Alchemist. In the All Paths World, there are no more than five Pill Masters capable of refining top-level divine pills.

”Everyone, why do you all look at me like this?”

”Is it because I can’t be a Pill Master? Haha, I know you must think that I’m quite young, and my Martial Arts Cultivation is fairly strong, so how could I also be a Pill Master, especially one capable of refining top-level divine pills.”

”But don’t forget, the Hall Master of Wanbao Divine Hall, Wanbao Daoist, is second only to the Supreme Heavenly Venerate in Martial Arts Cultivation, and yet he is also a Holy Alchemist. Exceptions often exist,” Jing Yan said with a smile.

”Alright, let’s not speak any more nonsense, and commence the auctioning of the Heavenly Pills!” Jing Yan waved his hand.

”For this first Heavenly Pill, which Daoist is interested?” Jing Yan lifted a jade bottle, placing it in his palm, and asked the room.

Although the number of martial artists participating in the All Paths Conference wasn’t large, the bidding atmosphere was exceptionally enthusiastic.

The loose cultivator experts took action one after another, and members of the seven first-class forces were not far behind, repeatedly bidding and driving the price of the Heavenly Pills to a very high level. Most martial artists directly offered rare materials in exchange.

One by one, the Heavenly Pills were continuously auctioned off. Most Heavenly Pills ended up in the hands of the seven first-class powers, whose resources naturally surpassed those of the loose cultivators. If not for considering the cost-performance ratio, the loose cultivators might not even have been able to snatch a single Heavenly Pill.

A hundred Heavenly Pills were auctioned off in less than two hours.

”Fellow Daoists, the auction of the Heavenly Pills has concluded. Next, we will conduct an auction for the second type of Divine Pill. Although this pill is not top-level, it is still quite remarkable. It is... the Nine Glories Pill!” Jing Yan waved his arm.
