Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

"Young man, do you have any objections to this?" The elder, having completed the appraisal, asked Chu Feng for his opinion.

"The appraisal is accurate, I completely agree!" Chu Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit more respect for the appraisers at the Penglai Auction. These people’s professional capabilities are indeed strong.

This Super Ninth Grade Soul Reviving Elixir’s main ingredients can even be identified.

"The estimated price is 800,000 low-grade spirit stones! Due to the extreme rarity of this elixir and its excellent condition, it is expected to auction for over one million spirits. Upon a successful auction, our auction house will take a ten percent commission. If the auction is unsuccessful, the item will be returned to you intact, with no charges."

The elder briefly explained the rules of the auction.

Taking a ten percent commission from the total auction price has almost become the default rule for all auctions.

Some unscrupulous auctions, besides taking a ten percent commission, will set up various charges, collecting additional appraisal fees, management fees, evaluation fees, etc. The client may end up with only 80% of the total price.

The Penglai Auction is a prestigious brand, with transparent, fair, and just pricing rules.

This point made Chu Feng very satisfied.

A base price estimated at 800,000 spirit stones far exceeded Chu Feng’s expectations.

He thought it would sell for around 100,000 spirit stones at most.

Although Super Ninth Grade Elixirs are valuable, they certainly have a price.

"No problem, let’s proceed with the paperwork!" For Chu Feng, selling the elixir was secondary; the main purpose was to have an alchemy battle with the Wushou Dan Venerate of Shennong Mountain. To compare himself.

The Wushou Dan Venerate, with an overwhelmingly aggressive attitude, directly took people away from Longevity Hall, which was a trampling on Longevity Hall.

Even ants have dignity; when stepped on, they will still bite back before dying. To uphold his own dignity and that of the Longevity Hall, Chu Feng would even dare to confront Yama Palace.

Soon, the auction procedures were completed, and Chu Feng received a note.

He was clearly informed that the auction would take place the following day.

...

Chu Feng left with Li Shishi.

Returning to Longevity Hall, Chu Feng stood by Chang’e’s bedside, looking at the unconscious Chang’e with a pained expression.

"I will definitely find Blood Ginseng and cure you!"

Unfortunately, that mysterious person vanished like a fleeting glimpse, never to be seen or heard from again. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Even though Chu Feng knew that person might just be bait with ulterior motives, he still hoped that person would reappear.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed.

The next day, early in the morning, Chu Feng took Li Shishi to the Penglai Auction’s contact point.

Chang’e staying at Longevity Hall was actually safer.

Because the Evil Tiger Gang was secretly protecting her.

Moreover, Chu Feng had established his might repeatedly in recent days, and even Dean Hong of Alchemy Venerate Academy was kneeling outside Longevity Hall. Who would dare to cause trouble again?

This was already Chu Feng’s third time entering the Penglai Auction.

He was familiar with the way, bringing Li Shishi through the Light Gate and heading straight for the auction hall.

On the way, he encountered several groups of guests.

All were big figures Chu Feng didn’t recognize.

Their presence was powerful and dignified.

Soon, a row of dazzling golden steps appeared ahead. Counted them, my goodness, Level 9 gold steps.

They were crafted from pure gold, looking extremely impressive.

On either side of the golden steps were guards in black mysterious armor standing watch. Although there were only four of them, the aura they emitted was like divine wrath, unfathomable.

These four must be guards of the Penglai Auction.

The four were completely enveloped in black mysterious armor, with helmets that covered their entire heads, leaving only their eyes and mouths exposed.

Whether they were old or young, male or female, was unknown.

"Please present your membership card!" One guard coldly said to Chu Feng and Li Shishi.

The person’s voice was as cold as ice, devoid of any human emotion.

"Here!"

Chu Feng presented his Intermediate Member Card and gestured to Li Shishi, "She is my attendant!"

"You two may ascend the golden steps! Once you enter Jade Road at the top of the steps, you’ll be subject to the array’s restrictions, unable to use Sword Essence, not even Talismanic Elixirs." The guard verified the membership card, found no issues, and allowed them through.

The guests entering were numerous.

With each step onto a golden step, Chu Feng felt an invisible force augmenting upon him.

Li Shishi, not even at the Sword Saint level, turned pale, appearing very unaccustomed.

Chu Feng supported her, concerned, "Shishi, are you alright?"

"I’m fine, just feeling an inexplicable trepidation, as if from divine wrath. This array is quite powerful!" Li Shishi smiled radiantly, her beauty blooming like a violet flower.

Chu Feng was momentarily entranced, her smile was exceptionally beautiful and captivating.

"Let’s hurry, there are many guests, we might not get a seat!" Chu Feng helped her, ascending the golden steps step by step.

After all nine levels of golden steps, they reached a Jade Road.

This Jade Road seemed to be made from a single piece of jade. Like a jade dragon, it wound across the ground.

The jade appeared green, tinged with purple, with natural cloud patterns reflected within.

This jade was top-quality Treasured Jade.

And being so massive, it was likely harvested from an entire underground jade vein.

But who could move an entire jade vein here?

Excavating it might not be difficult with hands organized, slowly digging, but moving it unbroken requires great skill.

The weight of this Jade Road must be at least several million pounds.

Even the Nine Tribulations Supreme Sword God couldn’t possibly have such capability.

Upon setting foot on the Jade Road, Chu Feng could no longer sense his internal Sword Essence. Even his Divine Sense couldn’t extend outside.

He was astonished; such a formidable array restriction would render even the most skilled expert powerless inside the auction.

Trying to activate his Nine Yang Strange Fire yielded no response as well.

The other guests appeared unfazed, seemingly accustomed to the restrictions within the Jade Road. They must not be attending for the first time.

After traversing the Jade Road, a large door appeared at the end.

Entering, there was a grand hall inside.

At first glance, it didn’t feel like an auction house. Instead, it resembled an ancient arena.

The guests’ seats were arranged in circles, descending in tiers.

Chu Feng initially worried about not having enough seats, but now it seemed unnecessary.

At the bottom of the hall was a circular platform, the auction stage.

Chu Feng could even see a small door leading to the bottom of the auction stage. He felt even more that this resembled an arena.

Looking up to the ceiling of the hall, wow, a giant bull’s head hung down, gazing downwards.

The raging and ferocious aura of the mad bull was overwhelming.

Anyone who saw this bull’s head would feel a chill down their spine.

Its bull eyes seemed alive, blood-red and daunting.

"Master, have you noticed? This looks like an ancient arena!" Li Shishi whispered.

"Yes, it does!"

Chu Feng nodded.
