Chapter 2165: Only 998

"He is the number one alchemy grandmaster in the Divine Realm, Fu Jiangchen!"

"Although he is the most famous alchemist in the Divine Realm, he can't be called the best! It is said that the Heavenly Sovereign Emperor's alchemy skills are unparalleled throughout the ages, unmatched by anyone."

"The Emperor is exalted high above and does not compare with ordinary people. Apart from them, this one can definitely be considered the top in the Divine Realm. Even if he's not first, he can certainly rank in the top five! After all, true masters do not like to show their faces..."

"That's true, but... wasn't he in Linglong Heaven? How did he end up here?"

Recognizing Fu Jiangchen's identity, the entire square erupted in uproar.

The mere identity of the most famous alchemist in the Divine Realm was enough to earn the admiration of countless people, let alone being a powerhouse at the Divine King realm!

Seeing everyone full of admiration, Zhang Xuan, even though he didn't know the man before him, knew he must be extraordinary, and nodded: "Good!"

Without further ado, Fu Jiangchen waved his hand, and a young man behind him leaped onto the platform.

"This is my grand-disciple, Han Qu! He is at the peak of Upper Grade Deity, and because he has just broken through not long ago, the probability of breaking through again is only thirty percent."

Fu Jiangchen said indifferently.

Since the other party had given him the opportunity to test the pill, he naturally had to explain clearly; otherwise, if he were accused of collusion, his reputation would suffer greatly.

As he finished speaking, Han Qu on the platform immediately displayed his cultivation level, which was indeed at the peak of Upper Grade Deity, and not very profound at that; he should still be a long way from breaking through.

"Master Fu's reputation is known throughout the world; he would not give false testimony. We believe!"

"I believe too..."

"I have long heard of Master Fu's character..."

Voices immediately rang out from below, quickly flooding the entire square like a tide.

Anyone else who went up would face doubt, and even if the Qi family sent an expert, it would seem suspicious, but no one had such thoughts about this man.

Not only because he was a Divine King powerhouse, but more importantly, he had been famous for thousands of years with a spotless reputation; no misdeeds had ever been heard of.

Thus, the grand-disciple he sent naturally posed no problem.

"Since everyone believes, let's begin!" Zhang Xuan said.

He had thought he might need to expend a lot of words to gain everyone's trust, but unexpectedly, Master Fu's appearance directly resolved this awkwardness.

With a flick of his finger, the pill in the box flew toward the young man Han Qu.

Taking it, the latter tilted his head and swallowed the pill.

Boom!

Vast spiritual energy surged into his dantian. The young man did not hesitate and immediately sat cross-legged to dissolve the medicinal power.

The crowd below held their breath, not daring to speak, afraid of disturbing his cultivation.

It didn't last long; in less than three minutes, everyone could clearly feel the power within Han Qu gathering like a tide, emitting a thunderous sound that grew louder and more intense...

Boom!

With an explosion, a powerful aura shot straight to the heavens, and the shackles pressing on his head immediately broke open.

"He... broke through?"

"In less than five minutes..."

Everyone swallowed their saliva.

Divine King—99.999% of cultivators in the Divine Realm dared not even think about it. The Heavenly God realm was the greatest hurdle in a lifetime.

Many Upper Grade Deities spent their entire lives without knowing how far they were from breaking through, yet this man... succeeded in less than five minutes!

Was this pill really that heaven-defying?

His pupils constricting, Fu Jiangchen was clearly also full of disbelief.

He could also refine the Obstruction-Breaking Pill that increased the chance of a Deity advancing to Heavenly God, but its maximum effect did not exceed twenty percent, and it could only be taken once!

According to his normal estimation, even if the other party's medicine could increase the chance by fifty percent, given this grand-disciple's ability, success would require at least several dozen major cycles of true qi, meaning at least seven or eight hours of cultivation!

To complete it in five minutes...

This Obstruction-Breaking Pill was even more terrifying and powerful than imagined!

He couldn't help but look at his grand-disciple: "How do you feel?"

At this moment, Han Qu had just stabilized the rampant true qi from the breakthrough and stood up, his eyes shining with light: "It's... even more powerful than imagined. It increased my chance of a successful breakthrough by at least sixty percent!"

Without taking the pill, his chance of success was very small; calling it thirty percent was already an exaggeration. Now... he had broken through easily, without any obstruction. The efficacy of this medicine was, for him, not just fifty percent... sixty, seventy, or even one hundred percent!

"Is it really that effective?" Fu Jiangchen couldn't believe it either.

"Your grand-disciple dares not speak a single falsehood. If I lie, may I never be able to refine pills again in this life, and die with my intestines and stomach ruptured..." Han Qu said solemnly.

Hearing him swear such a heavy oath, those who still had doubts could no longer speak.

"Since this young friend Han Qu has personally testified, everyone must have seen the efficacy of the Obstruction-Breaking Pill..."

Seeing that everyone was speechless, Zhang Xuan knew he had created a strong shock and immediately said: "Now I will announce the price and quantity of this pill."

Everyone looked over in unison.

The potency of the medicine was shocking, but the price was the most fundamental issue.

Zhang Xuan said: "Able to break through cultivation bottlenecks, this pill's price is naturally higher than the Beauty Pill. The retail price of the Beauty Pill is 1500 divine coins, and this pill is exactly ten times that, which is... 15,000 divine coins!"

"15,000 divine coins?"

"This is robbery..."

"Too expensive; some people couldn't afford it even with a lifetime of savings..."

"Although expensive, if it really has the effect just shown, it's worth it..."

...

Everyone below showed complex expressions.

Fifteen thousand divine coins could buy a house within the fifth ring of the Nether Soul Imperial City... but here it was just for one pill...

However, although the gap between Upper Grade Deity and Lower Grade Heavenly God was only a thin line, it was like heaven and earth. If this pill could truly make one break through, money was not an issue.

Because... lifespan and status were completely different, and money lost its meaning.

"Do you think it's too expensive?" Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhang Xuan smiled slightly: "I also think it's too expensive. If sold at this price on the first day, it will definitely deter many people. Therefore... not 15,000, not 12,000, not even 10,000! Only 998, only 998! For just 9,980 divine coins, you can buy one pill. For less than 10,000, you won't suffer a loss or be cheated; what you buy is a breakthrough, peace of mind, strength, and a completely different status..."

"9,980?"

"Less than 10,000..."

"Great, that's a third off!"

Everyone's eyes instantly burned with passion.

Nine thousand nine hundred and eighty was still very expensive for a pill, but compared to the previous 15,000, it was much cheaper. For less than 10,000, to have a chance to break through to Heavenly God, why not?

If you had money, only a fool wouldn't buy!

"I want..."

"Master Zhang, give me two pills!"

"I want four..."

...

The crowd was excited.

"Everyone, calm down..."

Seeing that his goal was achieved—the TV shopping from his past life indeed had a brainwashing effect—Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "It's not that I don't want to sell, but this pill is extremely complicated to refine. Limited by materials and energy, I can only offer a small number, not enough to satisfy everyone! Today, only one hundred pills are for sale, first come, first served. It's unclear if there will be another batch or when it will be released!"

Hunger marketing!

Even though making this Obstruction-Breaking Pill was not troublesome for him, he couldn't release them all at once; otherwise, they wouldn't be considered precious, and people wouldn't yearn for them, generating a continuous stream of wish power.

"Only one hundred pills? Hurry back and have the family prepare money... How to prepare? Sell the house quickly! Once I break through to Heavenly God, houses will be available in whatever quantity I want!"

"Not enough to buy a house? Look at me, am I worth anything..."

"Even if I have to sell everything, I must buy one pill..."

"Don't compete with me; whoever does, I'll kill them..."

...

Everyone went crazy, gnashing their teeth, unable to contain their excitement.

Watching this scene, Fu Jiangchen took a while to close his mouth.

He was the most famous alchemist in the Divine Realm; the pills he refined were hard to come by even for a fortune, and many people paid in advance just to get a pill personally made by him...

But compared to what was happening now, it still fell short.

Before the pills were even on sale, people were already fighting over them!

"Everyone, quiet!"

Seeing that the situation was settled, Zhang Xuan nodded and said: "As for how to buy, don't worry. After this launch event, go to Qi Ling'er to register. The first one hundred to register will be eligible to purchase the pill! Also, the Beauty Pill is also on sale today. Similarly, not 1,500, but only 998. There are three thousand pills available. First come, first served. Miss today, and the price will return to normal!"

The crowd below got excited again.

Those who hadn't bought the Beauty Pill before were all flushed with excitement.

"The Obstruction-Breaking Pill is 9,980 divine coins, and the Beauty Pill is 998 divine coins. I know that many Deity friends cannot afford these two pills even with a lifetime of savings. But don't worry, that brings me to the last pill I want to talk about today."

Zhang Xuan waved his hand, and Qi Ling'er took out a jade bottle, pouring out a few pills scattered in her palm, looking very shabby.

"Isn't that... the Divine Essence Pill used for cultivation?"

"One divine coin can buy ten of them, dirt cheap..."

"They look the same, but they definitely aren't..."

Everyone focused their attention again.

Zhang Xuan said: "This is called the [Spirit-Gathering Pill]! It looks similar to the Divine Essence Pill, but has completely different effects. Not only can it help restore consumed power, but it also gathers the spirit, making the mind clear and cultivation faster! However, it only works for Deities and cultivators below the Deity realm. The price... is 9.98 each, less than 10 divine coins!"
