"Old Jia" jumped three zhang high!
This was not an exaggeration, but something that truly happened!
"Old Jia" had indeed leaped up.
He had actually leaped three zhang into the air!
Damn it, he was utterly shocked!
What had he seen?
It was that legendary "divine pill"!
Having been an "appraiser" his entire life, he had never imagined that such a "divine pill" would appear in the mortal world!
This was impossible!
It was truly impossible!
...
At this moment, someone noticed "Old Jia's" unusual behavior.
They immediately became excited.
If it could shock "Old Jia" to this extent, it must be something extraordinarily good!
"Old Jia, is there another great item?"
Zheng Long chuckled and asked.
"Old Jia" did not respond, instead staring blankly at Qian Duoduo.
"Fellow Daoist Qian, is your Dragon Knight Merchant Association really going to sell such a divine pill?"
Divine pill?
Upon hearing this, everyone's ears perked up, filled with interest.
What divine pill was it?
Qian Duoduo remained as he always was, his round, plump face beaming with a cheerful, "harmless" smile.
He chuckled and said.
"Goods are meant to be sold, and we need you, venerable elder, to appraise it!"
At this point, a "venue attendant" nervously brought up a brocade box.
Beside the "venue attendant" were twelve "cold and aloof guards" as sharp as swords.
These "cold and
Inspiring awe and reverence.
According to the rules of the "Trading Fair," particularly valuable goods could be guarded by escorts.
Previously, when the "Dragon Knight Merchant Association" had sold "Sage Dragon Tooth Rice," "Stardust Spring Water," and "Stardust Spirit Sand," they had been casual and did not dispatch guards.
Now, however, the "Dragon Knight Merchant Association" had arranged for twelve "cold and aloof guards."
What did this signify?
The goods within the brocade box were even more precious than everyone had imagined, far more precious!
Everyone's curiosity was instantly piqued.
They began to speculate in their minds about what astonishing item lay within the brocade box.
At this moment, "Old Jia" had regained his composure. He slowly spoke.
"Esteemed sirs, you have all likely heard of the One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass, have you not?"
One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass?
Of course!
The "merchant managers" present were all individuals of extensive knowledge.
They knew the One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass very well.
Zheng Long stepped forward and replied.
"The One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass is the primary ingredient for refining the Dragon Pattern Pill. Unfortunately, this supreme heavenly treasure is practically extinct, only found in small quantities in the Cave Profound Secret Realm. This session of the Cave Profound Secret Realm encountered a great upheaval, yielding very little One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass, which is why its price has been exceptionally high recently!"
Zheng Long of the "Zhenglong Merchant Association," true to his "professionalism," spoke eloquently, analyzing the market situation of the "One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass" with clarity.
"Old Jia" nodded and slowly said.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng spoke correctly, but you did not tell the whole story. The One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass is indeed the primary ingredient for refining the Dragon Pattern Pill, but one One-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass can only refine one Dragon Pattern Pill."
"The most common Dragon Pattern Pills on the market are One-Dragon Pattern Pills!"
"However, the efficacy of this type of pill is not particularly good, and the chance of it helping a cultivator break through their inherent talent limits and generate new golden core dragon patterns is very small."
At this point, "Old Jia" paused. His eyes blazed with a brilliant light, and he slowly said.
"Above the One-Dragon Pattern Pill are the Two-Dragon Pattern Pill, Three-Dragon Pattern Pill... and the best is the Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill!"
"The Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill has heaven-defying efficacy, capable of helping cultivators break through their talent limitations and generate new golden core dragon patterns with nearly one hundred percent certainty."
"There are two major difficulties in refining the Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill."
"Firstly, the main ingredient requires Nine-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass. The Nine-Leaf Dragon Pattern Grass is almost extinct... At least, I have never heard of it being produced anywhere."
"Secondly, refining the Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill is extremely difficult, seemingly requiring the divine fire above spiritual fire, which is simply beyond the capabilities of mortal cultivators!"
"Therefore, the Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill is also known as a divine pill, and by all logic, it should not appear in the mortal world!"
...
"Old Jia" spoke eloquently, and everyone listened intently.
The "merchant managers" present were not fools.
On the contrary, they were all exceptionally intelligent and astute, grasping the implications immediately!
Wu Qi of the "Hengfeng Merchant Association" stood up, his face filled with excitement, looking at "Old Jia" with disbelief.
"Old Jia, are you saying that the Dragon Knight Merchant Association's next item is a Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill?"
Under everyone's expectant gazes, "Old Jia" slowly nodded.
Then, he extended his slightly trembling hand and opened the brocade box.
Whoosh!
A golden light shot up into the sky!
A faint dragon's roar echoed throughout the entire venue.
Everyone only saw a golden pill lying quietly in the center of the brocade box.
The golden pill was enveloped in a layer of misty spiritual light, appearing incredibly mystical!
Upon closer inspection, it was soon discovered that within the golden pill, nine phantom golden dragons coiled and danced, creating a magnificent spectacle!
A rich medicinal fragrance immediately spread out.
A gentle inhale made one feel refreshed, and their pores felt so comfortable they were about to open.
Most magically, the cultivators could clearly feel that their inner golden cores had become more active.
This...
There was no need for "Old Jia" to appraise it; everyone knew with one look.
This "Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill" was genuine, absolutely genuine, more real than gold itself!
Just as everyone was immersed in "unimaginable shock," an excited voice suddenly rang out.
"This Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill, our Zhenglong Merchant Association will acquire it!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd was not particularly angered, merely casting disdainful glances at Zheng Long.
Why the rush?
After all, judging by the "Dragon Knight Merchant Association's" modus operandi, they would surely have ample supply, plenty to go around.
Even if they were a little late, they could still purchase the "Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill."
Who would have known, "Old Jia" let out a cold laugh and said dismissively.
"Zheng Long, at a trading fair, some words cannot be spoken carelessly! Are you sure you don't want to inquire about the price before deciding?"
No need!
Price, what is there to inquire about!
Zheng Long chuckled inwardly.
The "Dragon Knight Merchant Association" had already made a name for itself, and their "One Yuan Store" was not just a name.
One Yuan, One Yuan, discounts for everyone, all for one Yuan!
Hahaha!
If he guessed correctly, this "Nine-Dragon Pattern Pill" would still be at the old price, one thousand low-grade spirit stones.
Hmm, no.
Zheng Long, being sharp and quick-witted,
His expression soon changed, realizing something was amiss.
If the price were indeed one thousand low-grade spirit stones, "Old Jia" would not have reacted in this manner.
Could it be...
