Duan Gujin thought that he would definitely need the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill in the future, so he felt that he should take on this task.
"Yes! As long as I refine more Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, and then exchange them for Spirit Master Treasure Pills, even if someone suspects why I have so many Spirit Master Treasure Pills, I would have an excuse to shut them up!"
Duan Gujin's mind whirled rapidly as he weighed the pros and cons, eventually deciding that he should accept this task.
He looked at the record behind the task and found that no one had yet completed it.
After thinking for a moment, he understood why.
For martial masters at the peak of the ninth realm aiming to break through to the Martial Sect Realm, the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill is extremely useful.
However, in the eyes of an Alchemist, it is practically as useful as a chicken rib.
The Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill is a Fourth-grade Elixir, but it is extremely difficult to refine.
It requires very high Telekinesis from martial artists and also very skilled Alchemy techniques.
If a martial artist's Telekinesis is not strong or their Alchemy techniques are not skilled, it would be very difficult for them to refine the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill.
Generally, martial masters in the Martial Master Realm who want to possess this kind of pill either buy it, but usually, it is unlikely to be refined by martial masters.
To refine a Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill, it has to be done by an Alchemist equivalent to the cultivation of the Martial Emperor Realm.
Because it is incredibly difficult to refine, the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill is considered a secret medicine in many sects.
In the major sects or powers of the Jiuzhou Continent, only those Alchemists who have reached the Martial Emperor Realm would refine some Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills.
Thus, the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill is very precious.
Auction houses would feature some Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills to draw crowds.
In his previous life, Duan Gujin had refined many Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, which he used to continuously improve his refining techniques.
"I am very skilled at refining Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills!"
Duan Gujin exhaled deeply, praying that the task from the auction house would still be valid before he had refined the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill.
Thus, he immediately purchased a lot of Spiritual Medicine according to the Elixir Recipe of the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill that he remembered.
The Spiritual Medicine required for the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pill is not very rare, thus he spent over a hundred thousand Jiuzhou coins to purchase enough Spiritual Medicine to refine more than a hundred Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills.
Then, he spent a large number of Jiuzhou coins to rent an Alchemy Room at an Alchemy Conference, where he continuously refined Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills for two days and nights.
Two days later, he left the Alchemy Room with bleary eyes.
He consumed a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, which fully restored his Primordial Power and quickly revitalized him.
His mind moved slightly, and he used the Transformation Technique to slightly alter his appearance.
After preparing everything, he arrived at the Snow Mink Auction.
When he entered the Snow Mink Auction, a young woman came forward to serve him.
"Sir, how may I assist you?"
Duan Gujin glanced at the young woman and directly said, "I see that your Snow Mink Auction needs a large number of Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills. I have over a hundred on hand. Do you need them?"
"We do need them at the Snow Mink Auction! Please follow me!"
The woman was stunned by Duan Gujin's claim of having over a hundred Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills. She had seen many Alchemists come here to sell their refined Elixirs before.
Among them, some Alchemists brought many Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills to be auctioned at the Snow Mink Auction.
However, those Alchemists usually only sold around thirty Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, rarely did it happen like Duan Gujin who directly offered a hundred.
The reason for this outcome is mainly if those Alchemists can refine Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, they can also refine Elixirs of the same grade.
If they refined Elixirs of the same grade, they could earn much more money, and they would not need to refine Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills which are of lower grade and require extensive consumption of Telekinesis.
From the standpoint of input and return, refining large quantities of Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills is simply not worth the loss!
Soon, Duan Gujin was taken to an office.
He was received by a middle-aged man who warmly welcomed Duan Gujin and asked, "May I ask, sir, what grade of Alchemist are you?"
"Fifth Grade!" Duan Gujin stated simply.
"Then could you please show your Fifth-grade Alchemist certificate?"
The middle-aged man asked.
Duan Gujin frowned slightly; he had anticipated that the Snow Mink Auction's representatives might ask this question.
He had a strategy ready.
"Due to some matters, I am unable to show you my Fifth-grade Alchemist qualification certificate, but my strength can prove it!"
He exhaled, and his Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul was immediately released.
The middle-aged man saw Duan Gujin release his blue Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul and gasped.
He knew that a Martial Artist can only release a blue Heavenly Dragon Martial Soul if they had unlocked five Martial Meridians.
By demonstrating that he had unlocked five Martial Meridians, the middle-aged man instantly understood that Duan Gujin's cultivation was undoubtedly strong.
Moreover, the middle-aged man felt the nearby void seemed to solidify, instantly realizing that this Martial Artist must be releasing his Domain Power.
Seeing the shocked expression on the middle-aged man's face, Duan Gujin knew that he had temporarily subdued him.
However, he also understood that this was not enough.
After all, he did not have the Fifth-grade Alchemist certificate in hand, and the middle-aged man could completely refuse him.
So, Duan Gujin mentally commanded, and released his Soul Fire.
If one wants to gauge a true Alchemist's strength, the simplest way is to inspect his Soul Fire.
Generally, if an Alchemist's Soul Fire burns fiercely and vigorously, it implies a high grade.
Seeing Duan Gujin releasing a Soul Fire as large as an adult man's head, the middle-aged man was truly subdued. His eyes widened, utterly stunned, realizing that this seemingly young man was actually an Alchemy Expert.
He estimated that the young man's displayed ability corresponded to the standard of a Fifth-grade Alchemist.
Such capability was enough to prove that the young man could indeed produce one hundred Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills.
"I believe this gentleman's words, so let's skip checking your Fifth-grade Alchemist certificate, but our people will need to inspect your Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills! Is that alright?"
The middle-aged man carefully said.
"Absolutely no problem, these are my one hundred Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, you can have your people come up and check them!"
Duan Gujin immediately took out a piece of white paper from his storage ring and arranged the one hundred Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills on it.
The middle-aged man immediately called over the young woman who had serviced Duan Gujin and asked her to invite Elder Ge and Elder Nie.
Soon, two middle-aged men came in.
As they saw a table filled with Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, their expressions changed slightly.
"Please, Elders, inspect these Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills together and see what the grade of these pills is?"
The middle-aged man immediately said to the two elders.
"Alright!"
The two elders quickly grabbed the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills from the table, inspected each using their Divine Sense meticulously.
They were very thorough, not overlooking a single pill.
An hour later, they had finished the inspection.
The two elders relayed to the middle-aged man that the inspected Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills were all genuine, without any problems.
Hearing from the two elders that there were no issues with the Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.
"This friend, please give us a price!" the middle-aged man asked.
Duan Gujin slightly frowned, saying, "Please, just purchase them at your market price!"
"Okay, we at the Snow Mink Auction buy each pill for twenty-nine thousand Jiuzhou coins, and you have one hundred thirteen pills! We should pay you two million two hundred sixty thousand Jiuzhou coins!" the middle-aged man calculated and responded.
"I made these Foundation Establishment Treasure Pills quite casually; you are welcome to inspect them again. I won't mince words, you only need to pay me two million Jiuzhou coins! You can recheck them now! Make sure to inspect carefully!"
Duan Gujin replied briskly, sweeping his eyebrows.
