Chapter 562 The End of Monopoly Pricing

”Have you heard? The Verdant Moon Auction Hall is said to be auctioning a Grade-7 pill from the Mu Clan!”

”What?! Is that true?”

”Yes! Theyʼre promoting it fervently. The entire city is talking about it!”

”This is the advantage of having a Grandmaster Alchemist within the empire... Letʼs go take a look!”

The moment the news spread, it ignited countless hearts.

People rushed to watch, even if they knew that they couldnʼt afford it.

However, this wasnʼt some one-time event.

Other auction houses also began to advertise that they had Grade-7 pills for auction.

Many people were attracted by Grade-7 pills.

Not just locals, but cultivators, merchants, and even envoys from other regions.

The Mu Clan had begun releasing pills steadily.

They supplied them to trusted merchant houses and auction halls-those who had already established relations with them.

It was both a favor and a calculated move.

By allowing these businesses to auction Grade-7 pills, they attracted more wealthy participants.

More attention.

More influence.

In return, the Mu Clan gained profit and strengthened their alliances.

Soon, scenes like this became common.

”Another Grade-7 pill is being auctioned!”

”Where this time?”

”Golden Silk Auction Hall!”

”Quick! We might still make it!”

Grade-7 pills-

Once rare beyond imagination were now appearing again and again.

Of course, the majority still couldnʼt afford them.

But that wasnʼt the point.

The fact that they were being sold so frequently meant that there was no shortage of Grade-7 supply now.

The Desolate Heaven Empire was rising.

Its economic activity surged.

Its influence expanded.

Because the participants were no longer limited to the empire itself.

Experts from neighboring empires began to arrive.

Wealthy merchants crossed borders.

Even powerful clans sent representatives.

All for one reason-the pills.

And this, in turn, boosted everything.

Trade flourished.

Markets expanded.

Cities grew livelier.

The entire empire benefited.

It became a cycle.

The Mu Clan produced pills.

Auction houses spread them. Foreign forces brought wealth.

And the empire grew stronger.

A perfect loop.

But not everyone was pleased.

The Vermillion Pill Empire was watching silently.

It seemed like their plan to stop the Mu Clan wasnʼt working.

Buying out ingredients?

It didnʼt even slow down the Mu Clan.

They were releasing Grade-7 pills occasionally to the point where the Vermillion Pill Empire began to doubt whether they were even trying to prevent the Mu Clan from obtaining the ingredients.

The consequences of having competitors were becoming clear.

One auction.

Two auctions.

Then many.

Each one chipping away at their dominance.

Each one weakening their control over the market.

Finally, they understood that just relying on preventing the Mu Clan from

getting their hands on ingredients wouldnʼt work.

The Emperor, along with the Grandmaster Alchemist, seemed to have come to

a decision.

Soon, an announcement was spread by the Vermillion Pill Empire.

The Vermillion Pill Empire will be auctioning Grade-7 pills!

At first, many thought this would suppress the Mu Clan. After all, if both sides released pills into the market at the same time-

Then the Mu Clanʼs profits would surely drop.

But what followed was something no one had fully anticipated.

The Vermillion Pill Empire did indeed intend to suppress the Mu Clan.

They wanted to attract customers and prevent them from purchasing the Mu

Clanʼs pills.

But that meant too many Grade-7 pills being sold at the same time which drove down their prices.

While they reduced the Mu Clanʼs gains, in doing so, they were also cutting into

their own profits.

And that was far more painful for them.

Previously, a Grade-7 pill like the Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Pill would

easily fetch three million gold coins at minimum.

Sometimes even more.

There was no choice.

Supply was limited.

Demand was overwhelming. People had no alternatives.

They paid whatever was asked.

But now?

Things were different.

With the Mu Clan steadily releasing Grade-7 pills, and now the Vermillion Pill

Empire doing the same-

Buyers were no longer desperate.

They had options, and they believed that even if they couldnʼt obtain one this

time, they would get another opportunity soon.

There was no need to overbid.

They could simply wait.

That single shift in mindset changed everything.

The bidding wars for Grade-7 pills lost their intensity.

The urgency disappeared.

Prices began to fall rapidly.

From three million...

To two and a half...

Then-

Barely two million.

And sometimes, even lower.

The drop was sharp and unmistakable.

For many, it was shocking.

For others, it was thrilling. Because they understood what this meant.

The era of monopolized pricing of Grade-7 pills was ending.

But while the cultivators rejoiced-the Vermillion Pill Empire felt the pressure

the most.

They had long been accustomed to setting the price.

To demanding exorbitant amounts.

To extract maximum profit from every single pill.

That had been their foundation.

Their strength.

But now, that foundation was shaking.

Every pill sold at a lower price was a loss compared to before.

Meanwhile, the Mu Clan remained calm.

Because their expectations were different.

Even one million gold coins was already a massive profit to them.

Of course, more was better.

But less?

They didnʼt mind.

Because for them, this was the expansion of their influence and market.

They werenʼt protecting an old system.

They were building a new one. And that difference showed clearly.

While the Vermillion Pill Empire grew increasingly frustrated-

The Mu Clan continued steadily.

As if the falling prices did not concern them at all.

And in the middle of it all, the true beneficiaries were the cultivators-

especially Peak Great Ascension Realm cultivators.

Now, they could afford to buy a pill that would help them in their ascension to

the Immortal Realm.

”This... is because of the Mu Clan.”

”If not for them, prices would never fall.”

”So this is what competition looks like...”

Many felt a surge of gratitude, even admiration.

Because this was exactly what they had long hoped for when they heard about

the Mu Clan having a Grandmaster Alchemist.

Of course, no one expected to see the effects so soon.

It hadnʼt even been four months since Mu Tianxuan was revealed as a Grade-7

Grandmaster.

And yet, the price of Grade-7 pills had already dropped by nearly half.

A change that should have taken years had happened in mere months.

Perhaps it wouldnʼt have taken even that long if the Mu Clan hadnʼt been occupied with the celebration.

Moreover, those who had taken the Heavenly Ascension Tempering Pill could clearly tell that it was better than the Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Pill.

Because of this, the demand for the Heavenly Ascension Tempering Pill became even higher than that of the Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Pill. And naturally, its price was also slightly higher-

Which was greatly beneficial for the Mu Clan. Additionally, for other pills with similar effects to those of the Vermillion Pill

Empire-

It became clear to buyers that the Mu Clanʼs pills were of higher quality.

This difference ensured that the Mu Clanʼs pills remained in higher demand.

Even if the Vermillion Pill Empire tried to flood the market with their Grade-7

pills-

Their customers did not disappear.

In fact-

They increased.

The entire pill market had been overturned by a single clan.

And the Vermillion Pill Empire didnʼt know how to stop them!
