Chapter 2516: Chapter 2516: Heated Discussions

A single elixir for two trillion!

Unheard of!

Not to mention these relatively ordinary cultivators, even in the Heavenly Domain, those at the peak as Immortal Venerables have rarely seen an elixir priced at two trillion Black Crystal Stones.

The Nine-star Primordial Spirit Pill that Immortal Venerables commonly use costs merely over a billion Black Crystal Stones per pill. The quality of Hongmeng Pill Tower’s Nine-star Primordial Spirit Pill is extremely high, with a price of one billion Black Crystal Stones each.

This old adventurer did not purchase Qianhe Zhenye, but the elixir worth two trillion Black Crystal Stones quickly spread from Hongmeng Pill Tower. The message was transmitted swiftly, and it didn’t take half a day for most cultivators in Hongmeng City to hear that an elixir priced at two trillion Black Crystal Stones was being sold at Hongmeng Pill Tower. Many people, upon hearing this news, made a special trip to Hongmeng Pill Tower for a glimpse.

Cultivators who can afford Qianhe Zhenye are extremely rare. Even if some cultivators could, they probably wouldn’t have the courage.

The news spread in Hongmeng City, and then further to the Thunder Domain. Once the entire Thunder Domain was aware of this information, it was not difficult for the world outside Thunder Domain to hear about it.

Most cultivators scoffed at this information.

Even if they confirmed the authenticity of the news, they did not believe that the Qianhe Zhenye sold by Hongmeng Pill Tower could be worth so many Black Crystal Stones.

The discussions were endless.

In taverns and teahouses across various cities, cultivators discussed the elixir priced at two trillion Black Crystal Stones from Hongmeng Pill Tower. It must be noted that after years of accumulation, Hongmeng Pill Tower has gained considerable recognition among cultivators. If it were some small pill tower selling Qianhe Zhenye instead of Hongmeng Pill Tower, cultivators wouldn’t even bother discussing it.

Of course, many cultivators still believed that Hongmeng Pill Tower was just hyping up the situation. To boost its reputation, it used some unscrupulous means, and they expressed disdain for Hongmeng Pill Tower’s actions.

In this general environment, Gao Zhenjiang returned to the headquarters of the Golden Toad Commerce. After obtaining the Qianhe Zhenye gifted by Jing Yan, he rushed to the commerce headquarters at a relatively fast pace. Today, he finally returned to the headquarters, taking nearly two months from Hongmeng City to here.

”Elder!” At the headquarters of the Golden Toad Commerce, a guard saw Gao Zhenjiang and quickly paid respects.

”Hmm, is the President here?” Gao Zhenjiang asked urgently.

”The President is in the other courtyard.” The guard responded.

Just as the guard finished speaking, Gao Zhenjiang’s figure flickered. The guard was a bit bewildered, wondering why Elder Gao Zhenjiang was so anxious today. The previous Elder Gao never had such a temperament.

A moment later, Gao Zhenjiang arrived at the residence of the President of the Golden Toad Commerce. The headquarters of the commerce is also a very large complex, located in the center of the main city of the commerce.

”Elder Zhenjiang, returned from the Thunder Domain?” President Meng Kun saw Gao Zhenjiang, smiled, and then slightly frowned, ”What happened? So urgent?”

The President looked at Gao Zhenjiang with some surprise. Gao Zhenjiang is a very steady elder among the senior members of the Golden Toad Commerce. When facing ordinary issues, even significant ones, he would remain calm. But at this moment, Gao Zhenjiang’s demeanor was quite unusual, his eyes shining.

”President...” Gao Zhenjiang paused, seemingly trying to find the right words.

However, after pondering for a bit, he truly didn’t know how to put this matter carefully.

”President, take a look at this first.” Gao Zhenjiang gave up on explaining first, directly taking out the Jade Bottle containing Qianhe Zhenye to hand it to President Meng Kun.

”What is this? An elixir?” Meng Kun looked at the Jade Bottle, then at Gao Zhenjiang.

”Yes, it is an elixir. President, see if this elixir seems familiar.” Gao Zhenjiang nodded.

With a doubtful feeling, President Meng Kun opened the Jade Bottle. Immediately, he saw the red, smooth elixir inside. A unique fragrance wafted out from the Jade Bottle.

”This elixir is extraordinary! Just from the smell alone, it’s unlike any ordinary elixir.” President Meng Kun mused.

If it were an ordinary elixir, Gao Zhenjiang wouldn’t have bothered to let him, the President, inspect it.

”Strange! I feel like I’ve seen this kind of elixir somewhere, but I can’t clearly remember.” Meng Kun frowned, searching his memory.

Suddenly, his eyes sharpened, suddenly looking at Gao Zhenjiang, taking a breath as he said, ”This elixir seems quite similar to Qianhe Zhenye. Its characteristics are very close. Elder Zhenjiang, what exactly is this elixir?”

”President, this elixir is Qianhe Zhenye. Anyway, City Lord Jing Yan of Hongmeng City said so.” Gao Zhenjiang replied.

”What? Qianhe Zhenye? How is that possible? How could Qianhe Zhenye be found in the entire Heavenly Domain!” Meng Kun’s face changed dramatically.

”City Lord Jing Yan said he has completed the Pill Formula for Qianhe Zhenye and successfully refined it into an elixir. This matter is indeed hard to believe. But City Lord Jing Yan, despite being young, is not someone with a reckless character. Since he said this elixir is Qianhe Zhenye, I wouldn’t dare to be careless.” Gao Zhenjiang sped up his speech.

”Hmm, what you say makes sense.”

”City Lord Jing Yan is no ordinary person.”

”But if this elixir is truly Qianhe Zhenye, why would he give it to you?” Meng Kun looked at Gao Zhenjiang.

”City Lord Jing Yan intends to sell Qianhe Zhenye to the public. He gifted this elixir to me hoping I could help with its promotion and verify the authenticity of its effects.” Gao Zhenjiang answered, ”If this is truly Qianhe Zhenye, its value is astonishing. This elixir could be compared to a Divine Soul Item.”

”This matter is no small thing!” Meng Kun nodded, ”Someone, come!”

Outside the other courtyard, the Shadow Guards, hearing Meng Kun’s call, quickly entered.

”Please summon the elders at the headquarters to the chamber.” Meng Kun ordered.

”Yes, President!” The black-cloaked Shadow Guards silently disappeared from the room.

It didn’t take long for the elders of the Golden Toad Commerce at the headquarters to gather in the chamber. Both President Meng Kun and Elder Gao Zhenjiang appeared in the chamber. The elders, one by one, did not know what had happened or why the President suddenly summoned them to the chamber.

”Fellow elders, please don’t ask questions yet. I have here an elixir that Elder Zhenjiang brought back from Hongmeng City. Please, take a closer look first.” Meng Kun handed the Jade Bottle to the closest elder to him.

The elders passed the Jade Bottle, examining the elixir inside.

”Elder Gao Zhenjiang, what kind of elixir is this that you brought back? I’ve never seen it before,” an elder asked in confusion.

Gao Zhenjiang glanced at Meng Kun.

Meng Kun chuckled lightly and slowly said, ”Does any elder recognize this elixir?”
