Chapter 1011: Selling Elixirs

In a small private room that couldn’t really be called upscale—just separated by a hanging curtain—sat four people. Qiu Zhanyu and Jinzhen Gu were seated beside Lin Fan, both quite curious. They had never actually been inside the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium before. Usually, when they passed through Huangtian City, they’d only ever look from the outside.

The truth was that although they had captured many people using the Heaven-Sweeping Net, most of them had only been of average strength. Furthermore, some of the items they had obtained, they dared not sell openly.

Who knew whether someone might discover their origins? If that happened, it would be a tragedy.

Therefore, whenever they obtained pills, they would directly divide and consume them.

As for other items, if usable, they would keep them; otherwise, they’d just carry them around without any real purpose.

“What exactly do the three of you wish to sell?” a man asked with a faint smile.

Of the three, he could see through two of them clearly, but Lin Fan was an enigma. His heart tightened slightly, realizing that the man before him was no ordinary individual. Clearly, he was the leader among the three.

He himself was a True Immortal expert. If he couldn’t see through someone, then that person’s cultivation must be above the True Immortal level.

“I want to sell a pill that instantly restores spiritual power,” Lin Fan said.

Nanyangzi listened and felt a bit disappointed. Pills that restored spiritual power were not rare here. However, the word “instantly” caught his attention suddenly, as if he couldn’t believe it.

Could this be a celestial pill?

Lin Fan smiled faintly without further explanation and immediately took out a “Hunyuan Spiritual Pill,” placing it on the table.

In a private, modestly partitioned booth, separated only by a hanging curtain, four individuals took their seats. Qiu Zhanyu and Jin Zhengu sat beside Lin Fan, filled with curiosity. They had never visited the Shenyun Tian Chamber of Commerce before, usually just passing by Huangtian City and glancing at it from afar.

Although they had robbed many people using the Tianluo Diwang, most of their victims were of average strength, and some items they dared not sell. They feared being discovered, which would lead to tragedy. Therefore, they would immediately consume any elixirs they obtained. As for other items, they used what they could and kept the rest, which often proved useless.

“What would the three of you like to sell?” the man asked with a faint smile.

He could see through two of the three, but Lin Fan remained an enigma, which made him wary. He knew this man was not ordinary and was clearly the leader among the three. Being at the True Immortal Realm himself, anyone he couldn’t see through must be at a higher level.

“A pill that can instantly restore mana,” Lin Fan replied.

Nanyangzi was initially disappointed, as mana-restoring pills were common. However, the word “instantly” caught his attention, leaving him somewhat incredulous. A pill that could instantly restore mana—could it be an immortal elixir?

Lin Fan smiled faintly and said nothing more, then produced a “Hunyuan Fadan” and placed it on the table.

Nanyangzi frowned as he examined the pill. It wasn’t an immortal elixir, as all immortal elixirs bore the marks of immortal laws, even the lowest grade. Yet, this pill seemed utterly ordinary, with no distinguishing features.

“This…” Nanyangzi, being a somewhat esteemed employee of Shenyun Tian, had a discerning eye. Although the pill lacked immortal laws, the aura it emitted was unusual. Its potency was far beyond that of ordinary pills.

“I must admit, I can’t discern the nature of this pill,” Nanyangzi said.

He had seen countless pills, even top-grade immortal elixirs, but this one was beyond his comprehension.

Lin Fan chuckled, then grabbed Qiu Zhanyu’s shoulder.

“Brother, what are you doing?” Qiu Zhanyu asked, puzzled.

Nanyangzi was also surprised, unsure of Lin Fan’s intentions.

Suddenly, Lin Fan’s mana surged, completely dispersing Qiu Zhanyu’s internal mana. Given Lin Fan’s superior strength, this was effortless.

“Swallow this pill,” Lin Fan instructed.

Qiu Zhanyu, though unaware of what had just happened, obeyed without hesitation and took the pill.

Nanyangzi watched in astonishment, knowing Qiu Zhanyu’s mana had been fully depleted.

“This Hunyuan Fadan, though not an immortal elixir, has an effect that ordinary immortal elixirs cannot match,” Lin Fan explained.

As soon as Qiu Zhanyu swallowed the pill, his depleted mana was instantly restored.

Nanyangzi was stunned.

“How is this possible?”

“How much do you think such a pill is worth?” Lin Fan asked with a smile.

Nanyangzi hesitated. Although Qiu Zhanyu’s mana had indeed been restored, it was hard to believe without experiencing it firsthand.

“Can it instantly restore mana at any level?” Nanyangzi asked.

Lin Fan laughed. “Do you think that’s possible? If it could restore mana at any level instantly, we wouldn’t be sitting here discussing it.”

Nanyangzi realized his question was somewhat far-fetched. If such a pill could restore mana at any level, it would be truly terrifying.

“It instantly restores mana below the True Immortal Realm. For True Immortals, it restores fifty percent, and for Mystic Immortals, thirty percent. It’s useless for higher levels,” Lin Fan explained.

“How many of these pills do you have?” Nanyangzi asked.

Lin Fan held up one finger. “One hundred.”

These pills were ones Lin Fan had refined himself but had no use for, so he kept them in his bag.

Upon hearing the quantity, Nanyangzi stood up. “Please wait a moment. I cannot make a decision on this.”

“Fine,” Lin Fan nodded.

Before leaving, Nanyangzi arranged for Lin Fan and his companions to be moved to a slightly more upscale room.

Soon, Nanyangzi returned with an elderly man.

The old man, a Mystic Immortal, looked at Lin Fan with a gleam in his eye, unable to discern his cultivation level.

“This is the manager of Shenyun Tian Chamber of Commerce,” Nanyangzi introduced.

Lin Fan nodded. “Good, let’s discuss the price.”

The old man clasped his hands and said, “Gentlemen, may I have another pill to test? If it truly has the effect you claim, the two consumed will be on Shenyun Tian’s account.”

Lin Fan immediately took out another pill and tossed it to the old man.

The old man examined the pill carefully but found nothing unusual. Though the trio’s origins were unclear, he believed no one would dare cause trouble in Huangtian City.

With a shudder, the old man dispersed thirty percent of his mana and swallowed the pill.

In an instant, his expression changed, and he looked at Lin Fan in astonishment.

“It truly restored thirty percent of my mana,” the old man marveled.

Lin Fan smiled. “Now that you’ve tested it, name your price.”

The old man pondered for a moment. “Although this pill lacks immortal laws, its effect is comparable to a low-grade immortal elixir.”

Lin Fan knew the value of the Hunyuan Fadan lay in its ability to instantly restore mana. However, it had a drawback: the higher the cultivation level, the less effective it became. For Golden Immortals, it was completely useless. The main reason was the quality of the spiritual herbs used. With better herbs or immortal herbs, even Golden Immortals and beyond could instantly restore their mana.

“One hundred thousand immortal crystals per pill. That’s the highest price Shenyun Tian can offer,” the old man said.

Immortal crystals were the universal currency of the Endless Continent, obtained from immortal veins controlled by major powers and mined day and night. These crystals contained immortal energy for cultivation and could be used in arrays and other purposes.

Even the Heaven and Earth Sect’s low-grade immortal elixir, which could restore mana, was only worth ninety thousand immortal crystals at Shenyun Tian. Clearly, Lin Fan’s pill was far more valuable.

“Agreed. However, I have another type of pill that is even more precious than the Hunyuan Fadan. Let’s see if Shenyun Tian can offer a satisfactory price,” Lin Fan said with a smile.

The most valuable pill he could mass-produce now was the Liyun Dan, which was indeed far more precious than the Hunyuan Fadan.

“This…” Nanyangzi, who held a certain status as an employee of the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium, naturally had a keen eye. Although this pill lacked celestial laws, the aura it emitted was somehow unusual.

The spiritual energy was extremely dense—far surpassing that of ordinary pills.

“Pardon my ignorance, but I can’t recognize this pill,” Nanyangzi admitted.

In a private, modestly partitioned room, separated only by a hanging curtain, four individuals took their seats. Qiu Zhanyu and Jin Zhengu sat beside Lin Fan, filled with curiosity. They had never visited the Shenyun Heavenly Commerce before, usually just passing by Huangtian City and glancing at it from afar.

Although they had robbed many people using the “Heavenly Net,” most of their victims were of average strength, and some items they dared not sell. They feared being discovered, which would lead to tragedy. Therefore, they would immediately consume any elixirs they obtained. As for other items, they used what they could and kept the rest, though they never found much use for them.

“What would the three of you like to sell?” the man asked with a faint smile.

He could see through two of the three, but Lin Fan was an enigma, which made him wary. He knew this man was not ordinary and was clearly the leader of the group. Being at the True Immortal Realm himself, anyone he couldn’t see through must be at a higher realm.

“We’re selling a pill that can instantly restore mana,” Lin Fan said.

Nanyangzi was initially disappointed, as mana-restoring pills were common. However, the word “instantly” caught his attention, leaving him in disbelief. A pill that could instantly restore mana—could it be an immortal elixir?

Lin Fan smiled faintly and said nothing more, then placed a “Primordial Mana Pill” on the table.

Nanyangzi frowned as he examined the pill. It wasn’t an immortal elixir, as all immortal elixirs bore the marks of immortal laws, even the lowest-grade ones. This pill, however, seemed utterly ordinary, with no trace of immortal laws or any special qualities.

“This…” Nanyangzi, being a seasoned employee of Shenyun Heavenly Commerce, had a keen eye. Though the pill lacked immortal laws, it exuded an unusual aura. Its mana was exceptionally dense, far surpassing ordinary pills.

“Forgive my ignorance, but I can’t discern the nature of this pill,” Nanyangzi admitted.

He had seen countless pills, even top-grade immortal elixirs, but this one eluded his understanding.

Lin Fan chuckled, then grabbed Qiu Zhanyu’s shoulder.

“Big brother, what’s this about?” Qiu Zhanyu asked, confused.

Nanyangzi was also puzzled, unsure of Lin Fan’s intentions.

Suddenly, Lin Fan’s mana surged, completely dispersing Qiu Zhanyu’s internal mana. Given Lin Fan’s superior strength, this was effortless.

“Swallow this pill,” Lin Fan instructed.

Qiu Zhanyu, though unaware of what had happened, obeyed without hesitation and took the pill.

Nanyangzi watched in astonishment, knowing Qiu Zhanyu’s mana had been completely drained.

“This Primordial Mana Pill, though not an immortal elixir, has an effect that even some immortal elixirs lack,” Lin Fan explained.

As soon as Qiu Zhanyu swallowed the pill, his depleted mana was instantly restored.

Nanyangzi was stunned. “How is this possible?”

“How much do you think such a pill is worth?” Lin Fan asked with a smile.

Nanyangzi hesitated. Though Qiu Zhanyu’s mana had indeed been restored, it was hard to believe without experiencing it firsthand.

“Can it instantly restore mana at any realm?” Nanyangzi inquired.

Lin Fan laughed. “Do you think that’s possible? If it could restore mana at any realm, we wouldn’t be sitting here discussing it.”

Nanyangzi realized his question was far-fetched. If such a pill existed, it would be terrifyingly powerful.

“It instantly restores mana for those below the True Immortal Realm. For True Immortals, it restores fifty percent, and for Mystic Immortals, thirty percent. It’s useless for higher realms,” Lin Fan explained.

“How many of these pills do you have?” Nanyangzi asked.

Lin Fan held up one finger. “One hundred.”

These pills were crafted by Lin Fan himself, and having no use for them, he had kept them in his bag.

Upon hearing the quantity, Nanyangzi stood up. “Please wait a moment. I can’t make a decision on this alone.”

“Fine,” Lin Fan nodded.

Before leaving, Nanyangzi arranged for Lin Fan and his companions to be moved to a more upscale room.

Soon, Nanyangzi returned with an elderly man, a Mystic Immortal. When the old man saw Lin Fan, his eyes gleamed with interest, as he too couldn’t discern Lin Fan’s cultivation level.

“This is the manager of Shenyun Heavenly Commerce,” Nanyangzi introduced.

Lin Fan nodded. “Good, let’s discuss the price.”

The old man clasped his hands and said, “Could you provide another pill for me to test? If it truly has the described effect, the two consumed pills will be on Shenyun Heavenly Commerce.”

Lin Fan handed over another pill.

The old man examined it carefully but found nothing unusual. Though the trio’s origins were unclear, he trusted that no one would dare cause trouble in Huangtian City.

With a shudder, the old man dispersed thirty percent of his mana and swallowed the pill.

In an instant, his expression changed, and he looked at Lin Fan in astonishment.

“It truly restored thirty percent of my mana,” the old man exclaimed.

Lin Fan smiled. “Now that you’ve tested it, let’s discuss the price.”

After a moment of thought, the old man said, “Though this pill lacks immortal laws, its effect rivals that of a low-grade immortal elixir.”

Lin Fan knew the value of the Primordial Mana Pill lay in its instant mana restoration. However, it had a drawback: the higher the realm, the less effective it became. For Golden Immortals, it was entirely useless. This was due to the quality of the spiritual herbs used. If higher-grade herbs or immortal herbs were used, even Golden Immortals and beyond could benefit.

“Ten thousand immortal crystals per pill. That’s the highest price Shenyun Heavenly Commerce can offer,” the old man stated.

Immortal crystals were the universal currency of the Endless Continent, obtained from immortal veins controlled by major factions. These crystals contained immortal energy, useful for cultivation, setting up formations, and more.

Even the Heaven and Earth Sect’s low-grade immortal elixir, which could restore mana, was priced at only nine thousand immortal crystals at Shenyun Heavenly Commerce. Clearly, Lin Fan’s pill was far more valuable.

“Agreed. However, I have another pill, even more precious than the Primordial Mana Pill. Let’s see if Shenyun Heavenly Commerce can offer a satisfactory price,” Lin Fan said with a smile.

The most valuable pill he could mass-produce was the Life-Saving Pill, which was far more precious than the Primordial Mana Pill.

Lin Fan smiled and then placed a hand on Qiu Zhanyu’s shoulder.

“Brother, what are you doing?” Qiu Zhanyu was startled, unsure of what was happening.

Nanyangzi was also surprised, uncertain of Lin Fan’s intentions.

Suddenly, Lin Fan’s spiritual power surged, violently scattering Qiu Zhanyu’s spiritual energy.

Since Lin Fan’s strength was far superior to Qiu Zhanyu’s, dispersing his spiritual energy was effortless.

“Swallow this pill,” Lin Fan said.

Still confused about what had just happened, Qiu Zhanyu obeyed without hesitation, picking up the pill.

Nanyangzi watched in shock as he saw that Qiu Zhanyu’s spiritual energy had been completely scattered—essentially drained.

“This Hunyuan Spiritual Pill may not be a celestial pill, but it possesses effects that even celestial pills cannot match,” Lin Fan explained.

After Qiu Zhanyu swallowed the pill, his drained spiritual energy was instantly restored.

Seeing this, Nanyangzi was stunned.

“This can’t be possible!”

“What do you think? How much is this pill worth?” Lin Fan asked with a smile.

For a moment, Nanyangzi hesitated. Although Qiu Zhanyu’s spiritual energy had indeed recovered, such a pill was hard to believe without personal experience.

“Can it instantly restore spiritual energy at any cultivation stage?” Nanyangzi asked.

Lin Fan chuckled. “Do you really think so? If it could instantly restore spiritual energy at any stage, I wouldn’t be sitting here talking with you now.”

At this moment, Nanyangzi also realized how absurd his question had sounded.

If it could instantly restore spiritual energy at any stage, that would truly be terrifying.

“It instantly restores spiritual energy for those below the True Immortal stage.”

“For True Immortals, it restores half.”

“For Xuan Immortals, it restores a third. Beyond that, it’s useless.”

Nanyangzi looked at Lin Fan. “How many of these pills do you have?”

Lin Fan raised one finger. “A hundred.”

These pills were self-cultivated by Lin Fan, and since he had no use for them, he had kept them in his bag all along.

Upon hearing the quantity, Nanyangzi immediately stood up. “Please wait a moment. I cannot make this decision alone.”

“Fine,” Lin Fan nodded.

Before leaving, Nanyangzi specially arranged for Lin Fan and the others to be moved to a slightly more upscale room.

Soon after, Nanyangzi returned with an elderly man.

The old man was a Xuan Immortal cultivator. Upon seeing Lin Fan, his eyes gleamed with sharp light, yet he too could not discern Lin Fan’s cultivation level.

“This is the manager of the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium,” Nanyangzi introduced.

Lin Fan nodded. “Great, then we can discuss the price now.”

The old man bowed slightly to the three of them and then spoke, “Please give me one more pill to test. If it truly has the described effect, the two pills consumed will be covered by the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium.”

Lin Fan directly took out another pill and tossed it to the old man.

The old man carefully examined the pill but found nothing unusual about it. Although these three individuals had an unknown background, he believed no one would dare to cause trouble in Huangtian City.

At this moment, the old man trembled slightly, dispersing a third of his spiritual energy before swallowing the pill.

In an instant,

The old man’s expression changed dramatically as he stared at Lin Fan in astonishment.

“It actually restored a third of my spiritual energy!” the old man exclaimed in amazement.

Lin Fan’s lips curled into a faint smile. “Now that you’ve tested it, let’s talk price.”

The old man pondered for a moment. “Although this pill lacks celestial laws, its effect rivals that of a low-grade celestial pill.”

Lin Fan naturally understood the value of the Hunyuan Spiritual Pill—its ability to instantly restore spiritual energy.

However, the Hunyuan Spiritual Pill had a drawback: the higher the cultivation stage, the less effective it became.

Especially for Golden Immortal cultivators, it was completely useless.

The main reason for this was the quality of the herbs used. If higher-grade spiritual herbs or celestial herbs had been used, even Golden Immortal cultivators—or even those beyond—could have their spiritual energy instantly restored.

“Ten thousand celestial crystals per pill. This is the highest price the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium can offer,” the old man said.

Celestial crystals were the universal currency of the Infinite Continent. To obtain celestial crystals, one had to locate a celestial vein.

These celestial veins were controlled by several major powers, who mined them day and night.

Celestial crystals contained celestial energy, which could be used for cultivation, as well as for setting up grand formations, among countless other uses.

Even the lower-grade celestial pills sold by the Heaven and Earth Sect—which also restored spiritual energy—were priced at only nine thousand celestial crystals per pill at the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium.

Clearly, Lin Fan’s pills were far more expensive than those.

“Fine, no problem. However, I also have another pill that is far more valuable than the Hunyuan Spiritual Pill. It remains to be seen whether the Divine Charm Heavenly Trading Consortium can offer a satisfactory price,” Lin Fan said with a smile.

Now that he could refine it, the most precious pill he possessed was the Liyun Pill.

Truthfully, this pill was far more valuable than the Hunyuan Spiritual Pill.
