123: Chapter 123 The Two in Shock

After a short while,

Yu Chen rushed into the room, following behind an elderly man.

"Fellow Daoist, this is our Wanfu Chamber of Commerce's..."

"Fellow Daoist Yan, it has been a long time."

Before Yu Chen could finish his sentence, Huang Xing directly interrupted him and stepped forward to converse with Lin Ming on his own initiative.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, it has been a long time."

Lin Ming nodded slightly.

The person before him was the Chief Appraiser of the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce; Lin Ming had dealt with him two years ago.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, don't you have our chamber's VIP Token? Why didn't you use it?"

Huang Xing said with a smile.

"I forgot."

Lin Ming replied.

Lin Ming remembered now that there did indeed seem to be a Wanfu Chamber of Commerce VIP Token inside his Storage Ring.

"Fellow Daoist Yan is truly a man of character."

Huang Xing remarked.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, let us change locations to talk."

Huang Xing did not dare to neglect this distinguished guest. Although he was unclear about Lin Ming's background, that was not important.

The things Lin Ming brought out were all truly high-quality goods. During that auction two years ago, the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce had used Lin Ming's items to make a name for themselves.

After two years, he had thought he would never see Lin Ming again, but he hadn't expected to meet him once more.

They had to treat this individual with the utmost seriousness.

"Mhm."

Lin Ming responded.

Fellow Daoist Yan?

Could it be him?!

As for Yu Chen, who was following beside Huang Xing, his expression changed slightly upon hearing their conversation. He seemed to realize who Lin Ming was.

At a VIP reception room on the third floor.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, this is top-quality Cloud Mist Tea."

Huang Xing personally poured a cup of tea for Lin Ming, only to see a wisp of cloud and mist emerge and cover the teacup.

Lin Ming picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and placed it back on the table.

"Let's talk business."

Lin Ming said.

He wasn't here to drink tea.

"7th-rank Medicinal Pill, seven-turn return-to-heaven pill, High Grade. For any cultivator below the Nirvana Realm, as long as they have a single breath left, it can bring them back."

Huang Xing also understood Lin Ming's meaning and immediately began to appraise the pill.

He observed the bottle of pills closely.

To be honest, even as the Chief Appraiser, Huang Xing had not seen many 7th-rank pills in his life, let alone 7th-rank High Grade ones.

Regarding the seven-turn return-to-heaven pill, most of his knowledge came from ancient texts.

After some observation, he reached his own conclusion, but he still needed the confirmation of another person.

*Click...*

The door opened, and another elderly man walked in.

"Old Huang, don't you know I'm very busy? Why did you call me to appraise some pill? Can't you do it yourself?"

Wei Feng said with a look of impatience.

"7th-rank High Grade pill, seven-turn return-to-heaven pill."

Huang Xing said slowly.

"7th-rank High Grade pill, seven-turn return-to-heaven pill? You aren't tricking me, are you?"

Wei Feng was stunned for a moment before speaking.

"If you don't believe me, surely you still believe Fellow Daoist Yan?"

Huang Xing said.

"Fellow Daoist Yan!"

Only then did Wei Feng realize Lin Ming was there, appearing somewhat surprised.

"Alright, take a look at this pill."

Huang Xing didn't waste words and pointed to the pill on the table.

Wei Feng hurried forward, observing the seven-turn return-to-heaven pill as if it were a priceless treasure.

He carefully poured the pill into his palm, his entire attention focused on it.

For half a quarter of an hour—a full seven or eight minutes—Wei Feng's attention finally shifted away from the pill.

He put the pill back into the bottle and returned it to the table.

"There is no mistake. High Grade, seven-turn return-to-heaven pill."

Wei Feng said while looking at the pill.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, is this pill to be put up for auction?"

Huang Xing's gaze became extremely fervent.

This was a 7th-rank pill. Just like two years ago, Lin Ming had also brought out a 7th-rank pill then.

However, the 7th-rank pill Lin Ming brought out this time was even more precious than the one from two years ago.

For any cultivator below the Nirvana Realm, as long as they had one breath left, they could be saved; this would drive countless cultivators into a frenzy.

"Mhm."

Lin Ming nodded.

Since he had brought it out, he naturally intended to put it in the auction.

"Continue."

With that, Lin Ming brought out another bottle of pills, which contained five of them.

"7th-rank pill, Profound Void Qi-Condensing Pill."

The Profound Void Qi-Condensing Pill was a pill needed for the cultivation of Other Shore Realm practitioners, and it was High Grade.

"7th-rank pill, Dark Void Soul-Sustaining Pill."

The Dark Void Soul-Sustaining Pill was a pill for healing injuries to the Divine Soul.

7th-rank pills—several types of 7th-rank pills were brought out by Lin Ming like common cabbages and placed on the table, leaving the other two men feeling momentarily numb.

But this also confirmed the thought in their hearts: this Fellow Daoist Yan before them definitely had a Grandmaster-level Alchemist backing him.

"Are all these pills to go to auction?!"

Huang Xing's voice was trembling at this point.

"Put them up."

Lin Ming nodded.

This was only a portion of his pill stock. If he brought them all out, it would indeed be a bit much; he would find another place to offload the rest next time.

"Next are the Origin Weapons."

Lin Ming said.

This caused the duo's hearts to shake once more. They had thought it was over, but this was only the beginning.

...

"Fellow Daoist Yan, these will definitely appear in our auction."

Huang Xing said to Lin Ming with a solemn expression.

This collection of treasures made even Huang Xing feel a bit flustered.

One had to understand that if it were just one or two items, he could guarantee it with his chest held high.

But with such a large quantity, he found it difficult to manage for a moment. Yet, this was also an opportunity for him, so no matter what, he could not give up—he couldn't give up his chance, and he couldn't give up this major client before him.

Moreover, this time made them realize that there must be some great power behind Lin Ming, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to produce these things.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, we can now talk about our business."

Lin Ming then looked toward Wei Feng and spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, could it be?"

Wei Feng was stunned at first, but then he reacted quickly, his expression instantly becoming excited.

"You want to Breakthrough to become a 6th-rank Alchemist."

Lin Ming said.

Two years ago, when Lin Ming brought out the 7th-rank pill, Wei Feng had sought him out, wanting to obtain insights on breaking through to a 6th-rank Alchemist from the Alchemist behind Lin Ming.

To that end, he was also willing to pay a price.

One had to know that although Wei Feng was a 5th-rank Alchemist for the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce, he had been stuck at the 5th-rank for hundreds of years, unable to step into the 6th-rank.

He had also tried to find ways to obtain the method for breaking through from other 6th-rank Alchemists.

But how could it be so easily obtained?

In most cases, he had simply been met with a closed door.
