King of Creation

"Why is Pill King Peng favoring one over another? If Pill King Peng had mentioned such a mystical opportunity earlier, I wouldn't mind losing face to gather the spiritual medicine from the undersea canyon and bring back a top-three ranking!"

As Chen Pi finished speaking, the Second Island Master of Yin Yang Island, Yang Ben, began to complain discontentedly.

Others, like the Island Lord of Black Fiend Island Hei Tian, Jie Tianhe, and Ou Tu, while not as blatant as Yang Ben, nonetheless silently expressed their dissatisfaction.

But the gleaming eyes directed at Shuili Dan King spoke volumes.

Even Chen Pi stated it's a mystical opportunity sought after by Dao Realm experts; how could they not pay attention?

"Do you all think that I am such a petty person?"

"Since I have convened you all here, there will indeed be benefits for you all when the time comes! Of course, the opportunity is there; whether you can seize this benefit depends on your luck!" Shuili Dan King said.

"Haha, the Pill King truly has thought of everything!" The Dao Realm experts were pleased and smiling.

Ye Zhen, standing on the Shangdan Building with the status of Sea Suppression Great Saint, was puzzled: what kind of mystical opportunity could it be?

Even Dao Realm experts seek it?

This further intensifies the competition for the Spirit Medicine Points. It will likely squeeze the spiritual medicine out from all present martial artists.

In the next moment, Ye Zhen glanced at the plaza in front of the Shangdan Building, resulting in a bitter smile.

It's not just likely; it truly can deplete the spiritual medicine from the thousands of martial artists here, whether collected from the undersea canyon or elsewhere, as long as there's a point, it would be handed in.

For nothing else, the martial artists down below have already begun to proactively overbid on the spiritual medicine from each other.

The benefits for ranking in the top thousand or hundred in Spirit Medicine Points are average—they don't attract too much attention.

But the benefits for ranking in the top twenty or top three are incredibly staggering.

The top twenty's qualification for bidding on the Grand Treasure Mansion Opening Pill, the top three's mystical opportunity, each is enough to make many martial artists fight for it.

Currently, among the plaza's thousands of martial artists, over a hundred are emerging to overbid for the undersea spiritual medicine.

As for those martial artists from the same Yua Family or the same faction concentrating their collected spiritual medicine into one person's hands, it's quite common.

In this short time, the overbidding on undersea spiritual medicine exploded rapidly.

The price set by Shuili Dan King was one point of undersea spiritual medicine for one hundred blocks of High Grade Spirit Crystal; the initial crowd's overbidding was one point of spiritual medicine for one hundred and five blocks of High Grade Spirit Crystal.

Then it rapidly surged to one hundred and ten blocks of High Grade Spirit Crystal, and in less than fifty breaths of time, it skyrocketed to one point of spiritual medicine for one hundred and forty blocks of High Grade Spirit Crystal!

This is a sky-high price!

Directly soaring forty blocks of High Grade Spirit Crystal, that's equivalent to soaring at least four thousand blocks of Mid-grade Spirit Crystal.

A spiritual medicine worth twenty points, just with this one point, can earn at least eighty thousand more blocks of Mid-grade Spirit Crystal.

This is simply picking up Spirit Crystals—it's faster than robbery!

Many martial artists hearing this price did not hesitate to sell the spiritual medicine they gathered.

Seeing the chaos below, Shuili Dan King remained silent; he only watched with a smile.

Clearly, he had anticipated this scene. For a Pill King obsessed with alchemy, gathering a vast amount of alchemy materials is most important.

As for how many Spirit Crystals are spent from others' pockets, that's their business.

Who makes his intangible assets priceless?

However, not everyone is qualified to participate in this fierce bidding.

Soon, most martial artists who bid were eliminated.

After all, the transaction volume is huge; those martial artists present may have some status, but most are at the level of millions of Mid-grade Spirit Crystals. One point of spirit medicine at least requires fourteen thousand blocks of Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, any single spiritual medicine needs tens of thousands of blocks of Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, so how much can they collect?

It didn't last long before the martial artists on the plaza quieted down again. Because not many were buying, many slower sellers or those wanting to sell more were regretfully gathering around the last few circles still purchasing.

Those still purchasing numbered only five, and these five had already spent all their Spirit Crystals, turning to barter instead.

Of course, it was depreciated in exchange.

These five included Yan Wuluo from Stars Tower, Yuh Changkong the Green Robe Dragon King from Dragon Alliance.

The reasons these two participate are simple: opportunity!

For a martial artist, the most irresistible thing is opportunity!

As for resources even Dao Realm Martial Artists yearn for with all their souls, they'd participate even at the cost of their entire fortune!

Just a bit of luck, and their Cultivation could advance further, perhaps even establish the foundation for entering Dao.

Once entering Dao, the world in front of them changes entirely.

Thus, these two are fighting with all their might to gather.

The contenders for top-three Spirit Medicine Points are not just these two, prominently featuring Gai Li, the Great Prefecture Lord from the leading Martial Arts Family of Outer Domain Dead Sea Gai Family, Young Palace Master Leng Kang of Xuanshui Palace, and Sect Master Xiahou Shan from Sky Sun Sect of Xuanlong Domain.

The Cultivation of these three are late Ninth Stage Establishment, with two at Peak Ninth Stage Establishment, all hoping for an opportunity to step into the Dao Realm.

Even if not entering Dao, just gaining some opportunity towards half-step Dao would be a tremendous fortune.

At this moment, the special opportunity nearly promised personally by Shuili Dan King is right before their eyes, how could they not fight tooth and nail?

However, when it comes to fighting tooth and nail, they only lament not bringing enough Spirit Crystals.

Like the Great Prefecture Lord of the Gai Family, Gai Li, who even started issuing IOUs, allowing many Martial Artists to collect Spirit Crystals from their Gai Mansion.

Of course, this method is only applicable to those with good credit and acquaintances.

Some Martial Artists who don't even know where the Gai Family is naturally wouldn't agree to this.

Not to mention individuals like those from Xuanshui Palace, who don't have a good reputation, no one wants their IOUs!

The first to stop acquiring undersea Spiritual Medicine was Leng Kang, the Young Palace Master of Xuanshui Palace; because Xuanshui Palace didn't have a great reputation, he had already spent all the Spirit Crystals and valuable items he brought. At this moment, he could only coldly watch others acquire.

Seeing Leng Kang stop acquiring, Gai Li smiled first, "Young Palace Master Leng, out of Spirit Crystals? Haha, that means one less contender for the top three!"

"Even if you had the strength to continue acquiring, you might not surpass me!" Leng Kang sneered.

"Hey, then just watch as I acquire?"

As Leng Kang said, even though Gai Li could still acquire, it became quite difficult for him, constantly weighing the value of various items, and even enduring some Martial Artists taking advantage to lower prices.

In comparison, Xiahou Shan, the Sect Master of the Sky Sun Sect, was also a bit frenzied, nearly taking out one-third of the sect's entire assets.

It's no surprise, once Xiahou Shan grasps a trace of opportunity that allows his Cultivation to break into the Half-step Dao or Dao Entrance Realm, the Sky Sun Sect's gains in the Xuanlong Domain would multiply.

Moreover, currently, it's just a contest among five individuals, with five competing for three spots, the chances of winning are still quite high!

Similarly, the Green Robe Dragon King, Yuh Changkong, and Yan Wuluo, also desperately acquired, and Ye Zhen even noticed that Yuh Changkong sought help from the Leader of the Dragon Alliance, Jie Tianhe, once.

"Hey, fourth brother, aren't you anxious at all, not planning to get involved?" Seeing Ye Zhen take no action, the third brother Sea-Breaking Great Saint was somewhat restless.

"Fourth brother, don't you just want to bid for that Grand Treasure Mansion Opening Pill, don't you want to try that special opportunity from the Pill King?"

"Who says I don't want to try? Opportunities are priceless, how could I remain indifferent?" Ye Zhen said.

The Sea-Breaking Great Saint's face froze, "Fourth brother, then why don't you go acquire undersea Spiritual Medicine to increase your points? Is it that you're short on Spirit Crystals? No, that can't be, your wealth isn't any less than ours!"

"Third brother, what if I told you I don't need to acquire undersea Spiritual Medicine, and I can still make it into the top three, would you believe me?" Ye Zhen suddenly smiled.

The Sea-Breaking Great Saint was stunned, then after casting a scrutinizing gaze at Ye Zhen, he could only smile wryly, saying, "In the past, I wouldn't have believed it.

But after witnessing the miraculous events you've accomplished, I think it's better to believe it!"

"You don't know, two hundred resource-rich uninhabited islands! I just missed them, missed them for nothing! All the uninhabited islands on Heavenly Wing Island add up to less than five hundred!"

"I'm so resentful!"

The Sea-Breaking Great Saint's regret was beyond measure!

Earlier, when challenging Jie Tianhe and Ou Tu about whether Ye Zhen could return alive, they dared not respond, and even made a counter-bet on whether their top experts would be killed by Ye Zhen, catching the Sea-Breaking Great Saint off guard.

The Sea-Breaking Great Saint hesitated for a moment, not daring to accept!

Primarily, the value of two hundred uninhabited islands was too immense, the Sea-Breaking Great Saint had to be cautious!

Moreover, he lacked confidence in Ye Zhen.

He didn't expect Ye Zhen to be so powerful under the sea.

All of this put the Sea-Breaking Great Saint in a state of frustration where he could almost vomit blood!

Of course, all this was communicated through the Divine Soul between the Sea-Breaking Great Saint and Ye Zhen, and others couldn't hear it.

Meanwhile the final tallying had begun.

Shuili Dan King had deployed hundreds of medicine slaves to count, and the speed of tallying points was very fast.

Very soon, everyone's Spirit Medicine Points had been tallied.

Including the Spirit Medicine Points of the five fiercest buyers were also tallied.

Barring any surprises, the top three in this undersea spiritual medicine point contest should emerge from these five individuals.

During the tallying, the five individuals were already gathered around.

As the tallying approached completion, the changing expressions on the five people's faces basically indicated the shifts in ranking among them.

When the last stalk of spiritual medicine was tallied, the Great Prefecture Lord, Gai Li, was the first to burst into laughter, with the most exaggerated reaction being from the Xuanshui Palace Young Palace Master, Leng Kang.

"A difference of fourteen points, a difference of fourteen points, narrowly won, Manager Yan, admit it, admit it!"

Yan Wuluo's face had turned extremely unsightly at this moment, as he ranked fourth, missing the chance to vie for that special opportunity by mere fourteen points.

Regrettably, he had lost over ten million Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, which was a net loss despite acquiring Spirit Medicine worth nearly four thousand points at a premium.

Yan Wuluo was so distressed that his heart ached!

"Manager Chen, the results are out, please announce them quickly!" Leng Kang said eagerly.

Silver-haired Chen Pi replied calmly, "No rush, there is still someone who hasn't tallied their Spirit Medicine Points!"

"Someone hasn't tallied yet?" Leng Kang was stunned, and his gaze immediately scanned the area, "Which bastard hasn't come over to tally points, delaying my success, watch out for your doglegs!"
