"That's too ruthless." Xiao Yan sighed helplessly. He had guessed from the beginning that the white-robed man's identity was definitely not simple, but such extravagance of eighth-grade pills was still unbelievable. Raising the price any further would basically cross Xiao Yan's bottom line. Although his net worth was certainly not limited to what he had just acquired, he still needed to go to the Sound Valley to trade for the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, which was something he absolutely had to get! Xiao Yan naturally couldn't give up everything for this ancient cauldron, so he had no choice but to give up at this point.
"We have no choice but to give up," Xiao Yan explained to Qing Lin.
On the other side, Qing Lin's eyes were also filled with regret, but she respected Xiao Yan's opinion even more. Since Xiao Yan was ready to give up, she would never insist.
Lin Xiuyai, who was in charge, had been waiting patiently. After a long period of silence from Xiao Yan's room, the transaction was considered complete. The offer of three Rank 8 pills had scared off everyone else, and room number three sent out three jade bottles via a maid. All eyes in the numerous rooms were now focused on these three jade bottles—genuine Rank 8 pills! Something many people could never achieve in their entire lives, and now three of them were right in front of them.
However, those who could stay here were all people with backgrounds and power, so naturally they wouldn't just start robbing people directly. But quite a few people also left the trade fair. The sudden, extravagant move by the owner of Room 3 attracted the attention of some, and an investigation into the background of those in Room 3 began to unfold like an undercurrent.
After verification, the professionals behind Lin Xiuya accepted the three pills and then delivered the ancient cauldron to room number three.
The moment the man in white saw the ancient cauldron, a hint of eagerness flickered in his usually calm eyes, and a slight smile appeared on his lips: "It really is this thing!"
Behind the man, Elder Yan's eyes also gleamed: "Young Master is truly blessed with extraordinary fortune! It seems our Spirit Clan's chance for a turn of luck is just around the corner!"
"Elder Yan, the rest is meaningless. Protect me." The man in white instructed.
Elder Yan nodded respectfully, and then an aura as deep as an abyss erupted from his body, completely enveloping the room. Those outside Room Three were astonished to find that Room Three had suddenly vanished, leaving no trace of its presence. Although curious, they knew this was a trade fair, and Room Three was merely concealing its aura; nothing more. They couldn't just rudely disturb it. Moreover, being able to conceal its aura to such an extent was itself a display of power!
After his aura was completely concealed, a powerful and blazing flame slowly rose from the white-robed man's hand, eventually enveloping the ancient cauldron. The man, his eyes filled with greed, licked his lips and said, "I never expected to obtain this Origin Spirit Crystal so easily. Heaven bless my Spirit Clan! Heaven bless my Lingzhuo!"
As the flames blazed, specks of emerald green light began to emanate from the ancient cauldron, and a surge of life force seemed to flow from within it. Enveloped in this light, Elder Yan's wrinkles gradually smoothed out. His previously nonchalant eyes now blazed with fervor, and his gaze towards the young man became even more respectful!
The commotion inside that small room naturally wouldn't affect the ongoing trade fair outside!
Before Xiao Yan could even feel sorry that the medicine cauldron had been taken away, Qing Lin had already become excited again.
"Spiritual Dust, Young Master, this must be very important to you!" Qinglin said excitedly, looking at the pale yellow dust in the center of the display stand.
Neither Xiao Yan nor Little Fairy Doctor Mu Qingluan felt any familiarity with the name, clearly indicating that they had no idea what the dust was for.
At this moment, Qinglin explained, "This Spirit-Nourishing Powder is something that only existed in ancient times. It has a very significant effect on enhancing the soul. With this Spirit-Nourishing Powder, young master's talent will definitely allow him to elevate his soul power from the mortal realm to the spiritual realm!"
Upon hearing Qing Lin's words, both Little Fairy Doctor and Mu Qingluan were even more confused. Normally, the improvement of soul power would only occur slightly along with the increase in level, and usually only some extremely special rare and precious materials could help improve soul power! But what Qing Lin said now seemed to indicate that the improvement of soul power was traceable, and that there were even so-called realms of soul power! Qing Lin's words were completely beyond their original understanding.
Only Xiao Yan frowned. As an alchemist with the powerful ability to convert battle qi into soul power through the Soul Transfer Technique, he was naturally more sensitive to soul power. Xiao Yan clearly knew that his soul power had reached a bottleneck. He had come into contact with several Saint-level experts, and their vast, ocean-like soul power was something he could never reach! After using the Soul Transfer Technique a few times, Xiao Yan also realized that his deficiency wasn't in quantity, but in the essence of his being!
Xiao Yan had never been able to find the path, but after Qing Lin's explanation, his original guesses were completely correct!
"Qinglin, is there any other information?" Xiao Yan felt that his understanding was still far from sufficient, while Mingmei knew exactly what he needed!
"The Soul Realm is divided into four levels: Mortal Realm, Spirit Realm, Celestial Realm, and Emperor Realm!"
Qing Lin paused for a moment, but seeing Xiao Yan's pleading gaze, she continued, "Grandma said that no matter what happens when we encounter Spirit-Nourishing Powder, we must snatch it. With Spirit-Nourishing Powder, Young Master, you'll have a chance to raise your soul power to the Spirit Realm and advance to an eighth-grade alchemist!"
At this moment, Xiao Yan admired Senior Mingmei even more. When he first met her, she was just a minor Dou Huang. He never expected that she would have made such detailed arrangements for things many years later.
"Anything else?" Xiao Yan asked casually.
At this moment, Qinglin's face also turned slightly red, and he said in a low voice, "Young Master, please don't be angry if you hear what comes after."
Xiao Yan was also a little puzzled: "Why would I be angry? Feel free to say so."
"Grandma said..." Qinglin hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Xiao Yan, don't even think about leaving the Spirit-Nourishing Powder for Qinglin. I've already prepared for Qinglin's soul power to increase; it's something a poor kid like you can't compare to!"
