"Brother Wei, Dragon... Dragon Blood?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with difficulty.
Even Elegant, who was sitting nearby and listening intently, changed his expression dramatically.
Dragon Blood exists?
If it exists, how could they be willing to part with it?
"That's right, it's Dragon Blood. When the time comes, we will present three bottles of pure Dragon Blood to the Formation Master who helps us the most. Additionally, we will hold an auction where we will offer three more bottles. There will be three items at the auction: one is three bottles of blood from the Divine Dragon, the second is three bottles from the Fire Phoenix, and the third is three bottles from the Xuan Gui. Each item is a treasure among treasures. Brother Bai, rest assured in passing this along; if we dare to hold an auction, we certainly have the means to provide these items. A little blood from divine beasts is something our Peach Blossom Sect can manage."
Bai Xiaosheng was so shocked that his whole body trembled, while Elegant was already in a daze. They looked at Wei Chen as if he were a ghost, wondering if this Fellow was even human.
"Brother Wei, could you let me see... the Dragon Blood first?"
"No problem, just a moment."
Wei Chen quickly left and found Gu Yuehong. Without hesitation, he took a bottle of blood and returned it to Bai Xiaosheng, saying, "Brother Bai, consider this bottle as a gift for you. If you help me with my tasks, I must offer some compensation."
Bai Xiaosheng trembled all over but held the bottle filled with Dragon Blood without moving an inch.
His face showed a look of fascination as he stammered, "Brother Wei, this really is Divine Beast Blood! The power of this blood is stronger than that of a Peak Grade Ten Monster! Just holding this bottle, I can almost envision how powerful its owner must be!"
Wei Chen smiled lightly and said nothing.
After being entranced for a moment, Bai Xiaosheng returned the bottle to Wei Chen and said, "Brother Wei, no reward without effort; this item is too precious for me to accept. When you hold the auction, I will do everything I can to secure at least one bottle!"
"Brother Bai, are you treating me like an outsider? Take this; I must give you this bottle of Dragon Blood. You've helped me so many times, how can I let you help me for nothing? Besides, I have another favor to ask."
"Brother Wei, no matter what, I can't accept such a precious item. If possible, just give me a friendly price to help me avoid the gaps left when competing with others; that would be enough. I'm not afraid of bidding against others, but I don't want to offend anyone," Bai Xiaosheng replied.
"That's fine then. I wonder if this bottle of Dragon Blood can be exchanged for a Ten-Grade Beginner Formation?"
"Absolutely! I happen to have a Ten-Grade Beginner Formation. If it were an Intermediate Level of Grade Ten or even higher, I definitely couldn't part with it," Bai Xiaosheng said, his face lighting up. He rummaged through his pocket and pulled out a Soul Jade.
Wei Chen could tell that Bai Xiaosheng's search was merely a pretense to conceal the fact that he possessed a space-type soul artifact. Space-type soul artifacts were precious, and it was normal for him not to want to reveal his wealth.
Wei Chen glanced at the contents of the Soul Jade before putting it away and smiled, "Brother Bai, you're straightforward. Now, onto another matter."
Next, Wei Chen entrusted Bai Xiaosheng with finding clues about Mighty. Bai Xiaosheng assured him it wouldn't be difficult and that he would provide an answer soon.
Having each obtained what they wanted, they went their separate ways, each with their own thoughts.
Even Elegant, who had planned to discuss love and feelings with Wei Chen at Cang Mountain, didn't linger. She hurriedly left with Qingling.
She foresaw that within a few hours, Wei Chen's words would spread to every corner of the Central Domain. With Bai Xiaosheng gaining such a tremendous benefit from a bottle of Dragon Blood, how could he not work hard?
Wei Chen had a good relationship with Thunderstorm; the Peach Blossom Sect had a Supreme Being—none of that mattered. The real focus was that the Soul Palace was about to mobilize against the Peach Blossom Sect. Wei Chen invited Formation Masters to help and promised them the benefits of Dragon Blood... Most importantly, there was actually Dragon Blood being auctioned!
Dragon Blood—what kind of concept was that?
It involved the king of mythical beasts; even just a drop or a bit of fur was incredibly valuable. Elegant also saw that the bottle of Dragon Blood emanated pure energy that was unimaginable and unlike anything she had ever seen before. Since Bai Xiaosheng was well-informed and recognized it as Dragon Blood, it could only be Dragon Blood without a doubt.
There are even more explosive revelations: Xuan Gui Blood? Phoenix Blood?
This world is simply too crazy!
Several hours later, Bai Xiaosheng used his powerful information network to spread Wei Chen's words far and wide. Especially regarding Dragon Blood, Xuan Gui Blood, and Phoenix Blood, Bai Xiaosheng personally confirmed their existence. They were priceless, and the entire Central Domain went completely insane.
Even in the distant seas, Ji Pokong and the high-ranking members of the Sea Tribe were stirred.
But compared to the precious blood that Wei Chen presented, what they cared about more was the Soul Palace!
The people from the Fire Sect, Thunderstorm, and the other high-ranking officials were also most concerned about the Soul Palace!
Those with true insight understood that the Soul Palace was the focal point of this explosive news. Wei Chen released information about the Soul Palace along with the precious Divine Beast Blood simply to attract powerful individuals to help deal with the Soul Palace.
"Wei Chen, oh Wei Chen, who exactly are you? Dragon Blood? Xuan Gui Blood? Phoenix Blood? Those things are all legendary treasures!"
"Even if they are legendary, I know those things truly exist."
"You released such news to get us to help you, right? Hmph, if the people from the Soul Palace dare to attack Peach Blossom Sect, that would be seeking death... unless..."
Thunderstorm muttered to himself, and suddenly his expression changed drastically: "Unless people from the Upper Realm have come down! The paralyzed Soul Palace actually summoned people from the Upper Realm to deal with Peach Blossom Sect? Their intentions can't be that simple. Perhaps their plan is to wipe out our Fire Sect as well!"
"What a clever scheme! Damn it, I almost fell for their trap. A bunch of reckless fools! You can summon people from the Upper Realm; can’t we from Thunder Clan?"
"Gather all the elders! This is a special order!"
The Thunderstorm became busy, and at the same time, the Sea Tribe was on the move. Ji Pokong led several high-level experts from the Soul Realm of the Sea Tribe, urgently flying towards Cang Mountain.
All major forces in the Central Domain reacted swiftly, sending their Formation Masters in hopes of obtaining Dragon Blood through their formations. However, they held little hope; everyone knew that the most formidable Formation Master in the Central Domain was Master Jin of the Fire Sect, and any Dragon Blood offered would undoubtedly be claimed by him.
All factions were preparing their resources, including precious Soul Stones and Soul Jades. While resources could be gradually gathered back, the opportunity for Divine Beast Blood was a one-time chance.
A vial of Divine Beast Blood could at least forge a mid-level expert in the Soul Realm, allowing them to successfully pass the Great Three Trials—this was no joke.
The Central Domain was mobilizing, the Sea Tribe was mobilizing, and the Fire Sect was mobilizing; everyone was taking action.
Only at Cang Mountain, within the Peach Blossom Sect, were the craftsmen busily building houses. Wei Chen and Han Mang were setting up formations everywhere, while most others were lounging comfortably.
"Old Man Han Mang, I've made my decision. Let's have Musa take on the position of sect leader. Once I send out the signal and people arrive, Musa will preside over things. Especially during that grand auction; it will be his stage to shine. We should let him step into the spotlight early so that everyone gets familiar with him and doesn't focus all their attention on me," Wei Chen said as he worked alongside Han Mang to arrange formations.
Han Mang nodded in agreement. "It's up to you. If you don't take it, I really wouldn't know who else to choose. Musa has potential; if he puts in the effort, he could be a talent."
Han Mang also held Musa in high regard. Although Musa's Soul Power Realm wasn't strong, he was quite clever and crafty—qualities that Han Mang appreciated.
This also proved that Han Mang had a cunning side and enjoyed playing with schemes.
"Yes, let him come out to gain some experience and build connections. Once our protective formation is fully established, we can rest easy. I've promised those from Dingsheng Trading Company that I would help them eliminate Dongxing Trading Company and Evil Dragon Path Assassin Organization. In return, they will supply our Peach Blossom Sect with Soul Stones for a hundred years. For me, that's an easy task; with a supplier for Soul Stones, you won't have to worry about them anymore."
"I see; that's a very profitable deal. I've been thinking about how massive our formation will be once completed—the consumption of Soul Stones alone will be an incredibly daunting figure. Now it seems Dingsheng Trading Company is willing to play the fool; I have no objections."
"Hehe, this auction is a great opportunity for our Peach Blossom Sect. With just this chance, our status will change dramatically. Back on Peach Blossom Island, what you all struggled your whole lives to achieve can be done easily on such a grand stage like the Central Domain," Wei Chen boasted.
Han Mang's face turned sour, and he forced a bitter smile. "You really are something else. I can't figure out what you're thinking anymore. Just go ahead and do your thing; if it all collapses, we have someone tall to support us, right? The Fire Sect has tall members; they should be able to handle it."
"Of course! The Fire Sect will come, and even the Sea Tribe will show up. If the Soul Palace appears, it's bound to be a disaster for them. If they think they can bully us with numbers, I want to see whether we have more people or they do!"
Han Mang muttered something under his breath that Wei Chen couldn't quite catch, but he didn't bother to ask further. After finishing his part, Wei Chen approached Musa directly and said, "Musa, there's going to be the largest auction in Central Domain history soon. Do you want to host it?"
"Of course! Are you really willing to give me such an opportunity to be in the spotlight?" Musa's face flushed with excitement.
"Haha, I don't want to be in the spotlight myself, so I'll let you host it. Make sure to shape your image well so that the people of Central Domain remember you. After that, things will be easier."
"What things? Are you saying you want me to be the image ambassador for Peach Blossom Sect? Hehe, someone as handsome as me is perfect for that role. I’ll be the golden signboard of Peach Blossom Sect and attract countless female disciples!"
"Stop joking around. I just want you to make an appearance so that the people of Central Domain remember you. When the time comes for the establishment of Peach Blossom Sect, it won't seem too abrupt for you to become the sect leader," Wei Chen said with a smile.
Musa was stunned for a moment, staring wide-eyed in disbelief. "What? Me as the sect leader?"
"That's right! You will be the first sect leader of our Peach Blossom Sect!"
