Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 161, Dan Chen

"Miss Danchen, could you please do me a favor?"

The young appraiser looked at the girl in front of him and said respectfully.

"What?"

"An alchemist has come to the treasure appraisal room to sell pills, many of which are grade seven pills. I can't appraise them all... so I would like to ask Miss Dan Chen for help," the treasure appraiser said.

"A seventh-grade pill?" Dan Chen murmured softly, wondering whether he should go and take a look.

She wasn't there to help at the auction; she just happened to be there to see if there were any medicinal herbs that would suit her.

Ordinary people wouldn't dare ask her for help, but this young appraiser was too anxious, so there was nothing she could do.

"How dare you trouble Miss Dan Chen for help?!" At this moment, an elderly man who looked like an elder hurriedly came over and scolded the young auctioneer.

Then, with a face full of apology, he said to Dan Chen, "Miss Dan Chen, it was my subordinate's ignorance that disturbed you. Please don't mind, and you don't need to trouble yourself with such a thing."

"I'll handle it."

With that, the elder led the young auctioneer back to the treasure room.

……

Ning waited for quite a while before an old man finally came over, his face full of apologies.

"I apologize for keeping you waiting, esteemed guest."

"Please help with the identification as soon as possible," Ning said.

He was afraid that if he was too late, all the good stuff would be bought up by others.

"OK."

The old man examined all the remaining pills, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.

The quality of these pills was so high that even he himself was ashamed of his own inferiority!

"Five Grade Seven Life-Devouring Pills, four Grade Seven High-Grade Azure Nether Longevity Pills, three Grade Seven High-Grade Life-Returning Pills..."

The old man was only a mid-level seventh-grade alchemist. Although he could identify pills of this level, he was ashamed that he could not refine pills of this level.

He couldn't help but show a surprised and approving expression at the young man in front of him.

Even though the Pill City has attracted a large number of alchemists due to the Pill Gathering, most of them are only fifth or sixth grade alchemists.

A seventh-grade alchemist is considered a master alchemist even in a place like Saint Pill City.

Ning Sucai is so young, yet she is able to refine pills of this quality. Her alchemy skills and talent are probably not much different from those of their young lady.

"We can offer a total of 5500 million for these pills. Would that be acceptable, young master?"

"Fifty-five million? Okay." This price was lower than Ning Su had expected.

However, the price of elixirs varies from place to place.

A seventh-grade pill could fetch an astronomical price in places where even sixth-grade alchemists are scarce.

However, while seventh-grade pills are scarce here, they are not considered rare, so their market price is much lower.

Ning Su was too lazy to haggle and simply agreed to the price.

After receiving the money, he went to the medicinal herb trading area of ​​the auction to buy some good stuff as soon as possible.

The old man left the treasure room with the elixir he had obtained from Ning Su.

As soon as he arrived backstage, he saw Dan Chen selecting medicinal herbs.

At the Dan family's auction, she could naturally take whatever medicinal herbs she wanted.

"Miss Danchen, you're still here? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Dan Chen looked up, gently shook her head, and said nothing.

She has always preferred to be alone and is not very close to strangers.

Even within her own family, she rarely speaks to others. It was only because she was preparing for the Pill Gathering that she came to the auction.

She rarely appears here under normal circumstances.

"Then please continue, Miss."

Knowing her temperament well, the old man didn't say much, but instead sorted out the pills he had just bought from Ning Su and placed them on the designated shelves.

Dan Chen, who was standing nearby, noticed that several bottles were placed on the shelf for seventh-grade pills, and she became quite curious.

Then I remembered that the young appraiser had said that there were some pills he couldn't identify, and it turned out they were seventh-grade pills.

"Elder, what level are these pills...?" she asked curiously.

The only thing that could interest her was elixirs.

Upon hearing this, the elder quickly replied, "Miss, these are all high-grade seventh-rank pills, of excellent quality. Even I am ashamed of my own inferiority."

"Besides, the person selling the pills is very young, only a little older than Miss. He might be a strong contender for the championship in this pill-making competition..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the elder quickly shut up, because he had said too many things he shouldn't have.

Dan Chen was also somewhat concerned after hearing what he said next.

"Um, may I take a look at that person's medicinal pills?"

She still cares a lot about matters involving the Dan Association.

The latest novel is first published here!

"sure."

The elder handed the seventh-grade pills to Dan Chen.

Dan Chen poured out the pills from the jade bottle and examined them carefully.

She was only half-believing and half-doubting the elder's exaggerated claims.

But now that she saw these pills in person, a sense of surprise rose in her heart.

Because the pills Ning Su refined were of very high quality!

It can even be said to be among the top-quality seventh-grade high-grade pills.

This is definitely not something a seventh-grade alchemist could make; it would require at least an eighth-grade alchemist!

Moreover, even an eighth-grade alchemist can only refine alchemy to this level of quality at most.

Because there is an upper limit to the quality of a pill, even the best grade seven pill cannot compare to a grade eight pill.

Therefore, even if a skilled eighth-grade alchemist were to personally refine the pills, the highest quality he could produce would be this.

Most importantly, the elder said that the person who refined these pills was a young man not much older than her.

In the entire Holy Pill City today, apart from a handful of people like the demoness from the Cao family, almost no one of her age can compare to her in alchemy skills.

Who exactly is the other party?

"Thanks……"

Although she was very curious, Dan Chen didn't ask any more questions.

Because she wasn't the type to pry into things, since she knew the other party's alchemy skills were impressive, she figured they could find out at the alchemy conference.

Having a strong competitor might not be a bad thing for her.

True alchemists are not afraid of competitors; competition is the driving force for progress.

"Don't you want to know about that person, Miss?" the elder asked curiously.

"unnecessary."

Dan Chen shook his head, took the pills he had found, and left the auction.

……

On the other side, Ning Su took the huge sum of money she had just received and went on a buying spree at the auction, spending lavishly to purchase a large number of high-grade medicinal herbs.

Everyone else was dumbfounded.

While others buy a few items at a time, he buys dozens or even hundreds of medicinal herbs at a time.

Indeed, there are differences between poor and rich alchemists.
