LIGHTNOVELONLINE Medicine Emperor, Han Feng
Yao Lao was so excited that he was at a loss for words. When he reached the Dou Venerable realm, some mighty figures in his clan had once told him about this item. It was one of the exceptional treasures for the soul.
If they could obtain it, it might be able to restore his soul to its peak state; even if it didn't, it wouldn't be difficult for him to recover half of his previous strength.
Sensing Yao Lao's excitement, Xiao Yan clenched his fists, staring at the Deep-Sea Blue Heart with a determined gaze. "Teacher, we must get this Deep-Sea Blue Heart. It will greatly assist in the recovery of your physical body."
"Alright, kid, no matter what the cost, we must go all out." Yao Lao understood that with Xiao Yan's current wealth, it was impossible to compete with these powerhouses, but with him as his backing, things would take a dramatic turn.
Just as the auction was about to begin, several figures suddenly flew in from a distance, each exuding a terrifying aura. From their Dou Qi Wings and speed, it was clear that all of them were at least at the Dou Emperor realm, and not low level either.
Sensing the newcomers, the magical beasts outside the Heaven Ascending Pavilion cast cold, wary glances. The Amethyst Winged Lion King even flew up, alertly watching the newcomers.
"Pardon us for our tardiness."
The speaker was a man who looked around thirty, with slightly thin lips pressed tightly together, giving off a cold and sharp aura. However, this added a unique charm to his already handsome face.
He had long black hair that fell to his shoulders, and his body exuded a peculiar medicinal fragrance that made people instinctively feel close to him.
On the chest of his green alchemist robe was an ancient cauldron emblem with six gold patterns, indicating his rank as a sixth-tier alchemist. On the back of his robe was a finely crafted character "Feng."
The Amethyst Winged Lion King sniffed the air, then looked at the six gold patterns on the newcomer. "You are a sixth-tier alchemist?"
Han Feng chuckled, "Yes, I didn't expect to see the overlord of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, the Amethyst Winged Lion King, here. Truly astonishing."
Indeed, the newcomer was the Medicine Emperor, Han Feng, from the Black-Corner Region!
The people with him were also Dou Emperor experts from the Black-Corner Region. After learning about this event, they had rushed to contact Han Feng and traveled thousands of miles to the Heaven Ascending Pavilion in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, hoping to find some rare treasures.
Among them were Fan Lao, the Sect Master of the Blood Sect; Yuan Yi, the Leader of the Eight Gates; Ban Lao, the Leader of the Ground Fire Sect; Elder Yin Gu from the Dark Sky Sect; Tie Wu, the Leader of the Wild Lion Gang; Su Mei, the Leader of the Luo Sha Sect; and Fang Yan, the First Elder of the Demon Flame Valley. Each of them was a Dou Emperor expert, and their collective presence indicated their formidable strength.
"May we enter the Heaven Ascending Pavilion for the auction?" Han Feng inquired.
Before coming, Han Feng had already gathered information about the Heaven Ascending Pavilion. The idea that the Amethyst Winged Lion King was the gatekeeper of the pavilion would be hard for many to believe.
Looking at the magnificent Heaven Ascending Pavilion, Han Feng couldn't help but praise, "I didn't expect to see such a marvelous structure in this world. Truly impressive."
The Amethyst Winged Lion King turned to look at the direction of the pavilion master. After getting Li Xiao's permission, it allowed the group to enter.
As they entered, they were greeted by the stunned crowds. Not long after, the hall erupted with loud exclaims, especially from those Dou King and Dou Spirit experts.
"It's actually the Medicine Emperor Han Feng from the Black-Corner Region! He's here too!"
"Not only that, but the leaders of the Blood Sect and Eight Gates are also here. My God, this is terrifying!"
The hall was filled with screams of astonishment. The Dou Emperor experts from the four great empires all frowned. They remembered that Heaven Ascending Pavilion hadn't invited the Dou Emperor experts from the Black-Corner Region, yet they had shown up uninvited.
Han Feng courteously cupped his hands towards the auctioneer, Linglong. "I am Han Feng, the Medicine Emperor from the Black-Corner Region. Greetings, Miss Linglong."
Linglong, with an expressionless face, replied, "No need for formalities. Since the Medicine Emperor has personally come, please take a seat."
"Thank you." Han Feng looked around and noticed the black-robed man sitting in the corner. He couldn't help but be bewildered as he sensed a peculiar and familiar aura from him. However, he didn't dwell too much on it and, under Niu Meng's guidance, proceeded to a private room on the second floor.
"It's truly a great place. I didn't expect Heaven Ascending Pavilion to be established in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. If it were in the Black-Corner Region or on the continent, it would be even more spectacular."
Yuan Yi, the leader of the Eight Gates, smiled faintly. He wanted to see what kind of strength Heaven Ascending Pavilion had to attract so many Dou Emperor experts at once.
"After a brief interruption, we will continue the auction. Everybody has already heard about the preciousness of this item. There is no base price, so please bid freely."
Upon seeing this, Han Feng immediately raised the bid, "Five million gold coins."
His words drew shocked gazes from the crowd. Starting with five million gold coins, was he trying to monopolize the auction?
Yuan Yi asked, "Medicine Emperor, are you also interested in this stone?"
Han Feng smiled, "This is not just a stone but a treasure from the deep sea, the Deep Sea Blue Heart. It is one of the most renowned treasures on the Dou Qi continent, a priceless gem that one might not encounter even in a thousand years."
Hearing this, the other Dou Emperors became interested. They hadn't expected such a treasure to exist, but since it was only beneficial for souls and alchemists, the Dou Emperor experts didn't raise the bid.
"Five tier 6 pills!"
At this moment, Xiao Yan in the hall on the first floor couldn't sit still any longer. He couldn't let the Deep Sea Blue Heart fall into the hands of his master's enemy, Han Feng; otherwise, he would let down his master's teachings.
Han Feng turned to look at the black-robed man below. He wanted to use his spiritual power to investigate, but he realized that Heaven Ascending Pavilion didn't allow the use of spiritual power to probe others' appearances. This puzzled Han Feng. How could this young man produce six-tier pills? It was truly strange.
Of course, the pills weren't Xiao Yan's but Yao Lao's collection. Even Yao Lao was originally reluctant to use them. Now, to restore his soul power, he had no choice but to use them as a bidding price.
Linglong gave Niu Meng a glance, and he began to appraise the pills on the spot. He concluded that the five tier 6 pills were worth six million gold coins.
The appraisal results left Xiao Yan looking somewhat upset. If he were to auction them, they would fetch at least tens of millions of gold coins. But here, they were only worth a few million. This pavilion was really black-bellied!
In fact, they were not that stingy; the pills were simply valued correctly. After all, they couldn't exchange them at auction prices, could they?
Han Feng smiled, "Young brother, you are able to take out tier 6 pills. You're indeed wealthy. I wonder where you got them from?"
"None of your business," Xiao Yan replied coldly.
