The crowd, hearing this, looked over and indeed saw at the center of the table a delicate plate holding ten Soul Reviving Pills, glowing with a milky white light.
Someone’s eyes were filled with confusion.
"Is that glowing milky white the Soul Reviving Pills?"
"Hehe!"
"I’ve never seen what a Soul Reviving Pill looks like. Don’t lie to me..."
An experienced elder said, "That’s right, those are indeed Soul Reviving Pills!"
"Phew."
The crowd couldn’t control their emotions any longer and started shouting in surprise.
"Roar, roar."
"Damn it, this isn’t just a tavern. It’s practically a trading house."
"Oh, no!"
"Even a trading house wouldn’t be able to bring out so many Soul Reviving Pills at once..."
"Why, why? How can Yan Rufeng’s tavern produce so many Soul Reviving Pills at once?"
"Haha..."
Laughter erupted from the crowd.
"You should know, these Soul Reviving Pills are free!"
"Phew!"
"We’re in luck. They’re free. I’m going to grab one!"
In the crowd, someone impatiently shouted, "Sister Yudie, when can we taste these dishes? I’ve been waiting anxiously..."
A graceful woman swallowed her saliva.
"Sister Yudie, can we start tasting now? My mouth is watering!"
"Sister Yudie, I’m going crazy waiting. Let’s start..."
Xuedie smiled sweetly.
"Everyone, please don’t be impatient. I will remove the restriction around the round table now."
Before Yudie finished speaking, thousands of Divine Senses appeared around the table, including those of some Ascension Stage experts.
Standing in mid-air, Yudie raised her delicate hand and waved. The invisible restriction around the round table in the middle of the hall vanished.
A strong scent wafted through the air. Before the crowd could react, the Soul Reviving Pills and even the soup in the other 17 dishes on the table were gone.
"Damn!"
"Who, who took all the food? Spit it out!"
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly.
"Haha..."
Someone mocked, "Don’t think everyone is so despicable. You’re only at the Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing. I’m in the Mahayana Realm and only managed to snatch a piece of beast meat. This is so unlucky."
"Hehe."
"Who said something about the Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing? You’re in the Mahayana Realm and only got a piece of beast meat. How can you have the face to say that? I’m at the Early Stage of Tribulation Crossing and still managed to grab a Soul Reviving Pill!"
"Haha..."
The person laughed heartily, then said, "The effect of this Soul Reviving Pill is really powerful. I feel like my Divine Soul can now kill a Mahayana expert instantly. How thrilling!"
"Haha..."
Someone in the crowd sneered.
"Kid, stop boasting. I’m in the Mahayana Realm. Let’s see how you do at the training ground."
"Fine, let’s hope you don’t chicken out later!"
"Hmph!"
"Don’t say I bullied you if you lose later!"
"Hmph."
The Tribulation Crossing expert who ate the Soul Reviving Pill also snorted coldly.
"Let’s go to the training ground now. Dare to fight?"
"Heh."
"Who’s afraid of who? Let’s go..."
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the two left the hall of Yingxian Tower.
"Oh my god."
"Damn it, three damn its..."
The hall was in an uproar.
"Is that guy crazy? He ate a Soul Reviving Pill he grabbed from Yingxian Tower and dares to challenge a Mahayana expert. I don’t get it!"
"Hehe."
Someone laughed, "That guy is pretty domineering. I like it. But I also grabbed a Soul Reviving Pill and haven’t eaten it yet. I was planning to exchange it for Spirit Stones. Now it seems unnecessary..."
"Oh, come on."
"Did people who grabbed a Soul Reviving Pill all step in dog poo? How are you so lucky..."
"Phew."
"My luck isn’t bad either. I grabbed a big piece of meat from a Level 7 Demon Beast. I think my Dantian won’t run out of Spiritual Energy for a month..."
"Roar, roar..."
A Middle Mahayana expert roared, "So what? I managed to grab a dish made with Cloud Snow Lotus. After devouring it, I feel like my body can withstand the full force attack of an Ascension Stage expert."
"Oh, come on!"
"There’s Cloud Snow Lotus in the dish? This completely overturns my understanding of cuisine..."
"My heavens."
"Who is Yan Rufeng, the owner of Yingxian Tower? Where did he get so many Heavenly Spiritual Grasses and Level 7 Demon Beasts..."
"Roar, roar!"
"Never mind who Yan Rufeng is. All we need to know is that what the trading house doesn’t have, he does. And he’s made it into dishes that we can eat..."
...
They didn’t know that in the Heavenly Court Space of Yan Rufeng’s Purple Mansion, there were a Spiritual Grass Garden and an Immortal Beast Garden.
The Spiritual Grass Garden and Immortal Beast Garden were once part of the Pangu Universe Immortal Realm. They now shared the same time difference. Unfortunately, due to the lack of Immortal Yuan Qi in the Heavenly Court Space, they could only be used as a Spiritual Grass Garden and Spiritual Beast Garden.
Yan Rufeng’s Spiritual Grass Garden saw a large number of Spirit Grasses wither and die each day.
These withered Spirit Grasses, if taken out, would shake the Cultivation World because they were fully matured and had incredibly powerful effects.
Yan Rufeng used these Spirit Grasses to feed Spiritual and Demon Beasts, an act many would consider wasteful and lavish.
The Spiritual Beasts in the Immortal Beast Garden reproduced very quickly. The ten thousand Demon and Demon Beasts Yan Rufeng had captured had multiplied into tens of millions. Even if Yan Rufeng slaughtered a thousand a day, he couldn’t finish them...
"Hehe."
In the hall of Yingxian Tower, someone laughed honestly.
"The Daoist is right. So how much of these dishes does Boss Yan plan to provide daily?"
The crowd shook their heads, their eyes turning to Yudie.
Seeing this, Yudie blinked and said with a smile, "Everyone, due to the scarcity of raw materials and the limited number of luxury private rooms, our tavern’s second and third floors will only offer 100 tables of this type of cuisine each day."
"Oh my god."
Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "A hundred tables every day, and you call that scarcity? If there were a thousand luxury private rooms, I’m sure Yan Rufeng could fill them all..."
The hall suddenly became noisy.
"A hundred tables a day? What does that mean? It means that all cultivators in Azure Dragon City will be able to eat these dishes that fully enhance individual strength. This is unbelievable..."
"Indeed!"
"Yan Rufeng at Yingxian Tower is amazing. I just wonder how many Spirit Stones he plans to sell these dishes for, which only those in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage can enjoy..."
The crowd shook their heads again, then turned to Yudie.
The hall fell silent. Yudie smiled faintly and looked at the expectant crowd. Her breath was like an orchid, and her voice was like a silver bell.
"Everyone, the eighteen dishes exclusive to Tribulation Crossing cultivators will be auctioned off. The starting price is 500,000 top-grade Spirit Stones. The bidding starts now!"
"A starting price of 500,000 top-grade Spirit Stones is an amazing deal. Remember that a single Soul Reviving Pill at the Cangmang Trading House sells for 3,000,000 top-grade Spirit Stones. I bid 1,000,000 top-grade Spirit Stones!"
