C137 Invitation Letter

After Fang Chen saw the invitation letter, his face was all smiles. Grand Master Tianhe really dared to say that he didn't know anything about pill refining, to think that he would call himself a pill refiner of Tiantang Hall.

In the entire Divine Wind Nation, there were only a few alchemy masters, and they were all in the alchemy organizations. There were alchemy masters in the Tiantang Hall, alchemists in the Pill Pavilion, and also in the other alchemy organizations.

Moreover, these pill masters were all old geezers.

"I don't know anything about pill refining, this …" Fang Chen said.

"Brother Fang, don't worry. I said that you are a master alchemist of my Tiantang Hall, who would dare to doubt you?" The Grand Master Tianhe said.

"Fine." Fang Chen nodded and said.

Suddenly, the Grand Master Tianhe asked: "Brother Fang, do you want to learn pill refining?"

Hearing the Grand Master Tianhe's words, Fang Chen was stunned, he shook his head and said: "My main focus is on the path of martial arts, I don't have time to do anything else."

The Grand Master Tianhe heard and nodded.

"Okay then, when Capital Auction starts, I will come and get you." The Grand Master Tianhe said.

At this time, in the organization of the Pill Pavilion.

An elder of the Pill Pavilion was reporting the matter to the tower lord of the Pill Pavilion.

"OP, I've discovered something." The elder said.

"What is it?" The tower lord asked.

"When I went to get the invitation letter, I coincidentally happened to meet Tiantang Hall's Grand Master Tianhe. He also went to get the invitation letter, but to my surprise, Grand Master Tianhe also asked for someone else's invitation letter." The elder said.

"Go on." The tower lord said.

"If it was anyone else, I wouldn't be surprised, but the person Grand Master Tianhe asked for an invitation was actually a grandmaster alchemist." The elder said: "And from the looks of it, the Grand Master Tianhe has very high expectations for that Alchemist Master."

At this point, the Elder no longer spoke.

When the Tower Lord heard this, he slightly frowned. After a long while, he said: "Are you saying that the alchemist grandmaster could possibly be the one who was behind Tiantang Hall to refine those pills?"

"I'm just guessing." The elder said.

"Go investigate, this is very important, we must investigate thoroughly." The tower lord said in a deep voice.

All this while, the Tiantang Hall had always announced to the outside world that the most recent series of medicinal pellets were all refined personally by the Grand Master Tianhe. At that time, the people of the Pill Pavilion did not think too much about it.

But now, they actually knew that there was another alchemist master in Tiantang Hall, and one they did not know.

There must be something fishy about this matter, so the people from the Pill Pavilion wanted to know the truth.

If they were sure that the Alchemy Master was the mastermind, then their Pill Pavilion could spend a lot of money to poach him. At that time, all the alchemy markets in the Divine Wind Nation would belong to their Pill Pavilion.

They were merely Tiantang Hall, and without that master, they were nothing.

"Alright, I'll go investigate." With that, the elder turned around and left.

The Capital Auction was about to start, and as time passed, the entire imperial city was filled with people.

The closer it got to the start of the auction, the more crowded the crowd became.

When the time fixed was at the start of Capital Auction, the entire imperial city was packed with people. For this reason, the imperial family had added guards to patrol the streets, afraid that there would be people who would cause trouble.

On this day, Fang Chen, under the lead of the Grand Master Tianhe, also arrived outside the Imperial City Auction House in the center of the imperial city.

"Is this the Imperial Capital Auction House?" Fang Chen asked.

"That's right, this is the Imperial Capital Auction House. However, don't look at how crowded it is, there are very few people who can actually enter." The Grand Master Tianhe said.

This time, he was the only one in their Tiantang Hall, along with Fang Chen.

Just as Grand Master Tianhe was speaking, a middle-aged man suddenly came from the distance, "Grand Master Tianhe, long time no see."

"Tower Owner Wang." Grand Master Tianhe greeted.

Fang Chen carefully sized up the Tower Lord of the Pill Pavilion.

"Grand Master Tianhe, who is this?" The Tower Lord of Pill Pavilion asked.

"This is a pill master from my Tiantang Hall." The Grand Master Tianhe said.

Hearing this, the Tower Lord's face slightly changed. How could there be such a young alchemist master?

"Grand Master Tianhe, you must be joking. How can there be such a young alchemist master?" The Tower Lord of Pill Pavilion asked.

"Tower Owner Wang, anything can happen in this world." The Grand Master Tianhe said with a smile.

Then, the Grand Master Tianhe brought Fang Chen and entered the Imperial City Auction House.

Just as he entered the Imperial City Auction House, Fang Chen discovered that the Imperial City Auction House was much more bustling than he had imagined.

Those who entered the Imperial City Auction House were either rich or noble.

"Let's go, our seats are in the third row." The Grand Master Tianhe said.

Following that, Fang Chen followed Grand Master Tianhe and sat on the third row.

At this time, one person after another entered the Imperial City Auction House, Fang Chen carefully sized up these practitioners.

"Do you see that the candidates in the first row are all from the ten great sects?" The Grand Master Tianhe said in a low voice.

The ten great sects, surpassing even the royal family of the Divine Wind Nation, were extremely powerful.

The first row of the Imperial City Auction House was always reserved for the top ten sects, while the second row was reserved for the officials of the Imperial Family. Forces like the Tiantang Hall s could only be placed in the third row.

The seats in the first row were all empty. It seemed that the warriors from the top ten sects had yet to arrive.

Time slowly passed. Soon, all of the participating experts had arrived. Even the ten great sects had sent people to attend the auction.

On the first row, Fang Chen found a familiar person: Huo Hen from the Blazing Mountain.

The latter also noticed Fang Chen, and his eyes were filled with anger.

"It's him." Huo Hen said coldly.

Beside Huo Hen, a disciple asked in a low voice: "Junior Brother Huo Hen, you know him?"

"He's just an ant." Huo Hen said in disdain.

After all the warriors had arrived, the auction finally began.

Right at this moment, a beautiful auctioneer appeared on the stage.

"Everyone, I believe that everyone knows of this as well. The Capital Auction that happens once every three years is about to begin." The beautiful auctioneer said excitedly.

"This year's auction is much better than any previous one. I hope all of you will be able to obtain what you want."

After that, the first item to be auctioned was brought up. The beautiful auctioneer extended her small white hand and lifted the red cloth that covered her plate.

Suddenly, a fiery-red fruit appeared in everyone's line of sight.

"This is the first item to be auctioned in this auction." The beautiful auctioneer said, "Fire Essence Eye Fruit is a very magical fire type fruit, it is very useful for warriors who cultivate the fire cultivation technique. Swallowing the Fire Essence Eye Fruit can help a martial artist's fire cultivation technique instantly break through a bottleneck."

After hearing the beautiful lady auctioneer's introduction, the eyes of a few fire cultivation technique Warriors lit up.

Because the fire cultivation technique was overbearing and sharp, it was exceptionally difficult to cultivate. Under normal circumstances, most martial artists would be stuck at bottlenecks.

Yet this Fire Essence Eyes Fruit was actually able to help the fire cultivation technique break through a small bottleneck. This was absolutely shocking.

"The starting price is — — Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones. Each increase is not less than one thousand Middle grade spirit stone." The beautiful auctioneer said.

Just as the auctioneer finished her sentence, someone started to bid.

"Eleven thousand Middle grade spirit stone.

"This is such a good treasure, but you're actually willing to bid? If it's really an insult to the Flame Essence, then I'll bid 20,000."

"I'll pay thirty thousand."

In the blink of an eye, the price of the Flame Essence Eyeball Fruit had risen to ten Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

The fire cultivation technique that he was cultivating in, just happened to be stuck at a bottleneck recently. Once he obtained the Fire Essence Eye Fruit, he would definitely be able to breakthrough.

"Flame Essence Eye Fruit, I want it." Huo Hen said in a low voice.

Seeing the price of the Fire Essence Eye Fruit skyrocket, Fang Chen, who was sitting in the third row, couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"What is this?" This is only the first item to be auctioned. When the final item comes out, it will become even more crazy. " The Grand Master Tianhe explained.

Fang Chen nodded his head and did not participate in the auction. This Fire Essence Eye Fruit did not have any use to him and he did not want to waste spirit stones.

In the end, after an intense bidding, the price of the Flame Essence Eye Fruit was fixed at above the 80 Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

"It was actually obtained by Huo Hen." Fang Chen said in his heart.

Originally, the price of the Fire Essence Eye Fruit was called to 50 Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, and there were very few people bidding, so suddenly, Huo Hen called out 80 Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, in one breath increasing the price to 300,000, shocking everyone else.

Of course, many people knew that he was a disciple of the Blazing Flame Mountain and weren't willing to offend him for the sake of a Flame Essence Eye Fruit, so they didn't participate in the bidding.

After the auction ended, Huo Hen handed over the 80 Ten Thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones and obtained the Fire Essence Eye Fruit.

"Flame Essence Eye Fruit." Huo Hen looked at the fiery-red fruit in his hand, his eyes burning with passion.

The following items being auctioned were all cultivation techniques, but most of them were only second rank cultivation techniques. To Fang Chen, second rank cultivation techniques were of no use.

However, for others, it was different. In the end, these cultivation techniques were sold at sky-high prices.

Time slowly passed and in the blink of an eye, it was the ninth item.

When the ninth item appeared, Grand Master Tianhe's eyes lit up.

"It's actually a set of Demon Dragon Flowers." Grand Master Tianhe said excitedly.

At the same time, the eyes of the tower lord of Pill Pavilion lit up. To their pill organizations, the Demon Dragon Flower was exceptionally precious.

"Someone actually brought out the Demon Dragon Flower for auction." Fang Chen slightly said.

"The journey of martial arts requires a lot of resources. Some martial artists don't join any forces, and their resources can only be obtained by themselves. Selling the Demon Dragon Flowers would only mean exchanging for spirit stones and buying the resources they need." The Grand Master Tianhe said.
