Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

"A ten-thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng! Although its origin is somewhat sinister and despised by the world, it has numerous marvelous uses. For instance, it can be used for healing, no matter how much essence blood is consumed, it can recover in an extremely short time. Or it can be used to consecrate a divine weapon, significantly increasing its upgrade success rate to become a Heavenly Divine Weapon. Alternatively, it can be used to refine the famed Blood Demon Pill, assisting corpses to pass through Thunder Tribulation, reaching the Yaksha Realm."

"What I mentioned is just a few uses of the Blood Ginseng. It has many other great uses, but due to its rejection by the world, it's hard to find one with age on the entire Divine Martial Continent. That makes this one incredibly precious."

Ye Wu praised the Blood Ginseng to the skies, exerting effort in her speech.

"What's the price for this Blood Ginseng? I'm determined to have it. Hurry up and quote me!"

A fierce-looking middle-aged man shouted sharply.

"Please don't rush! The consignor of this Blood Ginseng made a special request, to exchange it only for a Treasure Sword, not accepting spirit stones or other items." Ye Wu said in a coquettish tone.

Treasures are priceless, and that saying is half true indeed.

The owner of the Blood Ginseng, surprisingly, is not selling it for money but exchanging it for a Treasure Sword.

Chu Feng and Li Shishi felt their hearts tremble, exchanging a glance.

In each other's eyes, there was shock.

"The owner of this Blood Ginseng must be that mysterious person who once appeared!"

He was thought to have disappeared from worldly society, never to appear again. No one expected him to directly bring the Blood Ginseng to the Penglai Auction.

"That's all right, isn't it just a Treasure Sword you want? I have two top-grade divine weapons." The middle-aged man really showcased two extremely outstanding top-grade divine weapons.

Manager Ye shook her head lightly, apologizing, "Sorry, although your top-grade divine weapons are excellent, the Blood Ginseng's owner is not satisfied."

"How about my Heavenly Divine Weapon?" Another elder stood up, showcasing a Heavenly Divine Weapon.

It directly transformed into a cyan Sword Jiao, swirling and shooting in the air.

Because everyone's Sword Essence was sealed by an array, this Heavenly Divine Weapon didn't need anyone to activate it, and it could automatically transform into a Sword Jiao. It was truly formidable.

"Sorry, the Blood Ginseng's owner is still not satisfied!" Manager Ye shook her head helplessly, denying again.

Chu Feng deliberately observed Manager Ye's eyes this time.

After the elder showcased the Heavenly Divine Weapon, Manager Ye's gaze subtly glanced to the left.

Following her gaze, there were indeed quite a few guests sitting in the front row.

However, in the very last row, there was only one solitary guest sitting there, conspicuously out of place.

Even someone like Chu Feng, who preferred quiet, chose to sit closer to the front.

Because sitting in the front allows you to see the treasures more clearly and gives the opportunity to make an offer at the first chance.

To sit so far back, so high up, even if you want to bid, you'd have to shout at the top of your voice.

Of course, there's another option, to present a price card.

Writing your bid on it.

But writing speed is surely not as fast as speaking.

Apart from that peculiar guest, no one else chose to sit in the back row.

Everyone was trying to squeeze forward.

Because despite having over ten thousand seats, the guest count at the auction was only about a thousand.

Far from crowded enough to need sitting in the back row.

"Master, what are you looking at?" After the Blood Ginseng appeared, Chu Feng had yet to make a move, contrasting with last night's excitement and thrill. He now seemed exceedingly calm.

Indeed, Li Shishi found Chu Feng had the mind to observe other guests.

"I saw the person from the Western Regions Sword Sect again!" Chu Feng pointed with his mouth.

Li Shishi followed that direction, immediately spotting the Western Regions Sword Sect master they encountered yesterday.

Not only was this person ugly, but he also cultivated a head full of Fetal Light Tumors.

Making him easily recognizable.

"I suspect the owner of the Blood Ginseng is him!" Chu Feng spoke bluntly.

"Ah..." Li Shishi couldn't help but cover her mouth, gasping.

"Even ten-thousand-year-old Blood Ginseng, it's hard to find a thousand-year-old one in our Divine Martial Continent. The Western Regions and Divine Demon Continent are only separated by a desert. Blood Ginseng might exist in the Divine Demon Continent."

Because to the Demon Clan, there's only more evil, never the most evil. They have no concept of good and evil, as long as there's profit involved.

For those who play dangerously, planting Blood Ginseng requires killing a full-term fetus inside the mother's body.

This is an extremely cruel act.

It arouses human indignation and is unacceptable by heaven.

But to the Demon Clan, it's just a trivial matter. Easy to accomplish.

Chu Feng's suspicion isn't without reason.

Near water, first to the moon.

The Western Regions lie close to the Divine Demon Continent, possibly welcoming some demons crossing the desert into the Western Regions. Or some Western Regions masters crossing the desert, venturing into the Divine Demon Continent, seeking treasures.

Next, several people displayed divine weapons, wanting to exchange for that Blood Ginseng.

But the Blood Ginseng's owner never agreed.

Through careful observation, Chu Feng revealed that whenever someone showcased a divine weapon, Manager Ye's gaze would turn to that Western Region Sword Cultivator who would faintly shake his head.

This further confirmed Chu Feng's suspicions.

"I, the Emperor, possess divine weapons wanting to exchange for this Blood Ginseng, but with my Sword Essence sealed, the divine weapons in my Storage Ring cannot be taken out." Panlong Heavenly Emperor's somewhat anxious voice arose.

This time, he's accompanying the masters from the Undying Tomb to attend the Penglai Auction, not merely playing the role of a companion.

As long as these masters from the Undying Tomb set their sights on any treasure, Panlong Heavenly Emperor would finance them to snatch it.

Clinging to a thick thigh isn't so easy.

Naturally, a price must be paid.

What's the hardest thing in the world? Asking for help!

Getting others to assist, isn't so simple.

"Easy, go into that room, and you can activate Sword Essence." Manager Ye pointed to a room in the back.

Panlong Heavenly Emperor rejoiced, promptly leaving his seat and hurried into the room.

Before long, he emerged.

In his hands were over ten divine weapons, all Heavenly Divine Weapons.

They were now all in their most primal state, sword-ball shaped.

"Unveil!"

Panlong Heavenly Emperor murmured, revealing the Heavenly Divine Weapons one by one.

Until the final Heavenly Divine Weapon was showcased, Manager Ye still shook her head.

"Does that guest insist on a Treasure Sword? If he agrees to use other treasures, I am willing to use Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom's National Guardian Divine Artifact, Azure Dragon Cauldron, to exchange. This cauldron is a fake innate treasure."

Panlong Heavenly Emperor gritted his teeth, actually revealing the Azure Dragon Cauldron that rendered Chu Feng helpless.

This cauldron's defense is absolutely abnormal.

Chu Feng simply can't break through its defense.

Fake innate treasures are incredibly precious.

"Is Panlong Heavenly Emperor insane? What's he going to do with that Blood Ginseng?" Chu Feng's eyes were filled with shock as he looked at Panlong Heavenly Emperor and simultaneously scrutinized the Undying Tomb masters alongside him.
