“The Pill Tower’s foundation sure is very deep.”

Hearing her sigh, Luo Li said with a smile: “Of course, the Pill Tower and the Smithing Pavilion are existences that all major and small forces on the Tian’ling Continent are unwilling to offend.

“There was once a distinguished clan that offended a core authoritative Elder of the Pill Tower and then the Pill Tower placed them on the blacklist, announcing that all the pills from the Pill Tower would not be sold to them from now on.
The Alchemists of the clan left one after another.
As a result, that distinguished clan was finally reduced to a Third-Rate force.

“You’re also an Alchemist.
If you meet an Elder from the Pill Tower in the future, it will definitely be beneficial to befriend him.” Luo Li’s voice was so soft that only Lou Mu Yan could hear it.

Lou Mu Yan accepted his kindness, “Mm.

“Then is there a connection between the Medicine Sect and Pill Tower?” She thought about it and asked.

“There’s not much connection.
Although there are many Alchemists in the Medicine Sect, but they won’t join other forces, only serving the Sect.
And the Medicine Sect’s pills aren’t often sold to the public like the Pill Tower’s.” Luo Li replied.

Lou Mu Yan nodded.
There were numerous pill stores opened by the Pill Tower in all Regions, and their nature was indeed very different from that of the Medicine Sect.

Elder Xiao saw that many people below were ready to act, so he smiled and said: “Now, let’s auction the Force Nourishing Pills first.
There are three pills in total, and the starting price for each pill is two million purple-gold coins.”

“Three million.”

“Six million.”

“Ten million.”

Soon, the price was called to more than ten million.
Lou Mu Yan blinked.
Refining pills really made a lot of money.
She couldn’t even buy half a pill with the purple-gold coins she had on her.
It seemed that she could sell some in the future.

Seeing that Luo Li was also planning to bid for it, she nudged him with her elbow and asked: “You want to bid for it?”

“Of course.
The Force Nourishing Pill is one of the high-quality pills of the Pill Tower.
They are rarely sold on the market.” He was afraid that Lou Mu Yan wasn’t clear, so he even specifically explained: “Don’t listen to how it’s effect is only to nourish the meridians and remove impurities.
The most important thing is that it’s able to purify Elemental Energy.”

“I know that the Force Nourishing Pill can purify Elemental Energy, but do you think that just taking one or two pills can purify Elemental Energy?”

The Force Nourishing Pill belonged to nourishing-type pills and needed to be taken long-term to be effective.
After taking three pills, it only had the effect of nourishing the meridians.
It was impossible to slowly remove impurities without at least more than ten pills, let along purify Elemental Energy.

“That does seem to be the case.” Luo Li furrowed his brows and considered it.

He had also heard that the Elemental Nourishing Pill had the best effect when taken long-term, but it was difficult even for pupils of large clans to buy such pills even if they had money, so how could it be possible for them to take it long-term.

“It’s good even if it’s to nourish the meridians first.” He said after thinking for a bit.

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him speechlessly.
These people were just burning money because they had a lot.
Seeing that he still wanted to bid, she tugged his sleeve and said: “Don’t bid.
I’ll give you a pill later and I promise that its effect isn’t inferior to this Force Nourishing Pill.”

The more she interacted with Luo Li, the more she felt that he was like that explosive little cat she once raised, and she left a softness in her heart for him, so she was naturally generous.

Luo Li glanced at her with suspicion.
She had Grade 3 pills with the same effect?

Looking down and seeing her pull his sleeve, his heart pounded.
Even if this woman lied to him, he’d acknowledge it.

“Alright, I won’t bid anymore.”

Only then did Lou Mu Yan reveal a smile, very satisfied with this little cat’s cooperation.

In the end, the Force Nourishing Pill was auctioned at the price of twenty million purple-gold coins and Lou Mu Yan’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

The next auction of the Elemental Condensing Pill was even more intense, basically to the point of snatching.
Even the Sword Masters of the three other superpower kingdoms continued to bid.

In the end, it was auctioned at the price of fifty million purple-gold coins each and many people expressed pity.
After all, the Sword Masters who came to participate in the Continental Tournament for Hegemony only had their own savings to use and couldn’t ask the Clan for support.

Luo Li originally wanted to bid one for Lou Mu Yan, but she also stopped him.
The words ‘you might as well give me fifty million purple-gold coins than give it to the Pill Tower’ almost made him explode again.

“Alright, the auction of the Pill Tower has ended.
Now, the Sword Masters who want to trade are invited to take a number plate from the side and take the stage in turn.
This old man will not say more, you can all progress freely.” Elder Xiao smiled and indeed walked down the stage and sat down.

Both the Pill Tower and the Smithing Pavilion had their own plans whenever it was their turn to hold such trade fairs.

The Sword Masters who were interested in trading stood up and went to the left to get the number plate.
Even the Sword Masters of superpower kingdoms didn’t dare violate the rules of the Pill Tower.

“I have a Peak-Quality Spirit Treasure…” The first Sword Master came onto the stage and began to introduce.

The things that those who came on stage took out basically all required barter, so there were also no successful transactions.

The things that the seven or eight Sword Masters at the beginning took out weren’t bad, but none of them were of interest to Lou Mu Yan.

Only when an indifferent, black-clothed man came up on stage, took out a Profound Ice Jade Box and opened it, did Lou Mu Yan sit straight up.

“This is the Sea Serene Herb I found when I entered the competition space.
Those who know it naturally knows of its effects.
I want to exchange it for a Grade 3 pill that can improve my cultivation base.
If you don’t have pills, Spiritual Stones can also be used to exchange.
But it cannot be less than two hundred Low-Quality Spiritual Stones.” The man opened the Profound Ice Jade Box and began to explain the exchange conditions.

The jade box was filled with sea water, and there were more than ten dark green seaweeds dancing in the seawater, all of which were alive and well-preserved.

The Sea Serene Herb was very useful to those who knew how to use it, but it was of no value at all for ordinary Sword Masters, so the people below were lacking in interest.

Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s eyes light up, Luo Li remembered that she had asked him to help gather news of the Sea Serene Herb and asked: “You want to trade for it?”

“Of course I want to trade.” Lou Mu Yan nodded.

“This Sea Serene Herb isn’t worth that he said to trade with.” Luo Li was afraid that she would be deceived.

Lou Mu Yan said with a smile: “As long as I think it’s worth it, it’s fine.”

“Two hundred Low-Quality Spiritual Stones is too expensive.
If it’s one hundred, I can still take it.” Lou Mu Yan had yet to speak when a beautiful young woman sitting in the seat of a superpower kingdom said.

The black-clothed man on the stage pondered for a bit and said: “If it’s less than two hundred Low-Quality Spiritual Stones, I will not trade.”

A look of displeasure flashed across the woman’s eyes, but she didn’t immediately increase the price.

“I have a Grade 3 pill here that I want to trade you, what do you think?” Lou Mu Yan flipped her hand and a white porcelain bottle appeared in her palm, then she directly tossed it to the man on stage.

The man caught the porcelain bottle and swept his gaze over Lou Mu Yan.
When he saw her cultivation level, he was only surprised for a moment, but didn’t reveal any contempt or belittling.

He opened the bottle cap and a scent of pills wafted out.
A slight joy appeared on his indifferent face.

He poured out the pill and picked it up with two fingers, placing it under his nose to sniff, then said: “It’s indeed a Grade 3 pill that can improve cultivation base, I’ll trade.”

The black-clothed man quickly put the pill back into the bottle, closed the Profound Ice Jade Box and prepared to toss it to Lou Mu Yan.

“Wait a moment.
I’ll give you two hundred and twenty Low-Quality Spiritual Stones.
I want your Sea Serene Herbs.” The beautiful woman who had stopped speaking spoke up again, with a forceful and domineering tone.
