122: Chapter 122 Seventh-Rank Pill? A Scammer?

If it were just the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce or something, there would be no need to wait until now to tell them; it's not like it's something that can't be seen in public.

Perhaps this Wanfu Auction is just a temporary ruse Revered Master came up with, and Revered Master's true goal lies elsewhere.

Lin Ming couldn't help but shake his head.

Why was he bringing back his old habits?

His Revered Master was, after all, a powerhouse of the Nirvana Realm; there weren't many people in the entire Qingxuan Realm who could threaten his Revered Master.

And based on his understanding of Revered Master, she shouldn't be doing anything too dangerous.

It was likely just that there was something Revered Master wanted at the auction.

He shouldn't overthink it.

"We will be staying here for the next few days,"

Master Yun Hua said.

Just as Master Yun Hua had said, they spent the following time in Cangyuan City.

Lin Ming and his companion were free to move about and didn't have to follow Master Yun Hua all the time.

This gave Lin Ming an opportunity.

Lin Ming walked out of the inn alone; in the crowd, he suddenly changed his face, transforming from a young man into a middle-aged man.

No one around noticed the change that had occurred to Lin Ming.

The Wanfu Chamber of Commerce was located on the South Street of Cangyuan City, which was also the most commercially developed area in the city.

Before even stepping into the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce, Lin Ming saw a constant stream of cultivators entering and leaving.

"Sir, do you have any needs?"

When Lin Ming stepped into the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce, a woman with a pretty face and a graceful figure walked up and took the initiative to greet him.

"I want to auction something."

Lin Ming said coldly.

"Auction? Then please follow me, sir."

Chu Xia said to Lin Ming with a smile still on her face.

She led Lin Ming through the main hall and into a room in the back.

"This row of rooms is where our chamber's Appraisers are located."

Whether one wanted to sell items at the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce or put them up for the Wanfu Auction, they had to go through an appraisal by the chamber to determine their value.

After all, there were far too many people trying to fish in troubled waters, and the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce had suffered quite a few losses in this regard, so they had established a strict mechanism.

"You people really don't know quality; this is a treasure map left behind by the Seven Fiends Sect, which can find the Seven Fiends Sect's Treasure Trove. You really don't know what's good."

A middle-aged man walked out of a room grumbling, looking extremely displeased.

"If it's the Treasure Trove of the Seven Fiends Sect, then go find it yourself. Why bring it out for auction?"

Among the crowd waiting for appraisal, someone immediately spoke up in mockery.

"This thing is naturally meant for someone destined to have it, do you understand?"

The middle-aged man glanced at the person and said with dissatisfaction.

"Customer, you may leave now. Do not disturb the order of the chamber."

A man walked up to the middle-aged man and said to him expressionlessly.

Perhaps sensing the unfriendly aura from this man, the middle-aged man swallowed his words, turned around, and left.

"What kind of Wanfu Chamber of Commerce is this? A bunch of people who don't know quality."

The middle-aged man muttered under his breath.

Then he disappeared from everyone's sight.

This was basically a daily occurrence; many people brought so-called Treasure Troves, Cultivation Techniques, and even forged Heaven And Earth Treasures, hoping to swindle money from the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, some people did succeed.

But some of those successful individuals disappeared mysteriously afterward, and there was never any more news of them.

"Sir, you need to line up and wait."

Chu Xia said to Lin Ming.

Seeing this, Lin Ming casually chose a room to wait in line.

During that time, he saw smiles, disappointment, and grumbling just like that middle-aged man.

Only, no one dared to cause a scene inside the chamber.

After all, the high-level Spirit Platform guards around were not to be trifled with.

Before long, it was Lin Ming's turn.

Lin Ming pushed the door and entered the room.

As soon as he entered, he smelled a refreshing fragrance that was soul-soothing and heart-calming.

In front of Lin Ming sat a young and handsome man.

"Fellow Daoist, please take a seat."

Yu Chen said to Lin Ming with a smile.

Lin Ming sat down opposite him.

"I wonder what item Fellow Daoist has?"

Yu Chen asked.

He truly hoped Lin Ming could bring out something of real value.

After all, with the announcement of the Wanfu Auction, many shady characters from all walks of life had emerged, bringing all sorts of fake and inferior products to try and make a quick buck.

But they did indeed find some valuable things among them, even picking up quite a few bargains, which was one of the reasons they didn't turn these people away.

However, the things Yu Chen had appraised these days were basically fakes—forged Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills, spiritual plants, and so on—making him feel quite bored.

"Grade Seven Medicinal Pill, seven-turn return-to-heaven pill."

Lin Ming took out a jade bottle containing a completely white Medicinal Pill and placed it on the table.

A Grade Seven Medicinal Pill?

Yu Chen's first reaction upon hearing this was that he was a fraud.

If the person in front of him could really take out a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill, then the one receiving him wouldn't be him.

A Grade Seven Medicinal Pill wasn't something just anyone could casually produce; the number of people in the entire cultivation world who could refine a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill was countable on one hand.

Another fraud who had appeared out of nowhere.

And a fraud claiming to have a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill at that.

Looking at the Medicinal Pill on the table, a hint of disappointment appeared in Yu Chen's eyes.

However, out of professional etiquette, Yu Chen still decided to appraise it.

"May I take a look?"

Yu Chen asked.

"As you wish."

Lin Ming uttered these two words.

Yu Chen picked up the bottle of Medicinal Pills somewhat casually.

Then he opened the bottle; the moment it was opened, an indescribable fragrance wafted out.

This fragrance instantly stunned Yu Chen.

But he quickly reacted and hurriedly closed the bottle to prevent the fragrance from spreading.

Could it really be a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill?

Yu Chen stared blankly at the bottle in his hand.

This fragrance struck his heart and soul, as if it could cleanse his body.

This made him realize that this pill was definitely no ordinary Medicinal Pill.

Could it really be a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill?

But even if it wasn't a Grade Seven Medicinal Pill, it was by no means ordinary.

However, at this level, a Medicinal Pill of this grade was far beyond his scope of appraisal, and he was unable to make a judgment.

"Fellow Daoist, this item exceeds my scope of appraisal. I need you to wait a moment."

Yu Chen said to Lin Ming.

His tone of voice now carried a hint of respect.

Lin Ming nodded slightly without saying anything.

Yu Chen walked quickly out of the room.

He was going to call for backup.
