In Luoxia Wetland, Yun Sheng also smelled a fragrance. She looked towards the direction Bobbie had indicated. Ahead was a swamp that resembled a field. Compared to the outer area heavily populated by demon beasts, the number of demon beasts near this swamp had drastically decreased. Yun Sheng and Bobbie carefully flew closer for nearly a mile. Yun Sheng immediately realized why there were particularly few demon beasts in this area. Ahead, there was a Ninth-level Demon Beast crawling. It was an Eagle Claw Bat King. As the night approached, the Eagle Claw Bat King circled around, emitting a series of hissing calls. Hearing these calls, the other demon beasts all kept well away. Having had the experience with the Centipede Ant King, Yun Sheng was certain that this Bat King was a genuine Ninth-level Demon Beast, and that it would not be easy to deal with if a fight truly broke out. Before entering the wetland, Yun Sheng had noticed that many of the demon beasts nearby had wounds. It seemed that these demon beasts had attempted to break into this area before, but due to the presence of the Eagle Claw Bat King, they dared not get close. They were now resting on the periphery, preparing to launch one final assault. "Dear master, the fragrance is coming from there," Bobbie had discovered a plant in the very center of the swamp, emanating a faint purple glow all over, wafting an enticing aroma. This fragrance, just by taking one whiff of it, could make one feel refreshed. The previously muddled head from the miasma also cleared up considerably. Seven leaves? Yun Sheng focused her eyes and noticed that the slender stem of the plant bore nine leaves. "It’s not Six-leaf Purple Ginseng, but Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng?" Yun Sheng was greatly surprised upon seeing it. Housekeeper Wan had clearly mentioned Six Leaves before, but now it turned out to be Nine Leaves. Could it be that the people of Luoxia City deliberately concealed this information? This time, Yun Sheng was wronging the Luoxia City Lord; his scouts had only discovered traces of Purple Ginseng near Luoxia Wetland. When they attempted to confirm the specific grade of the Purple Ginseng, demon beasts attracted by the scent of the Holy Herb had already rushed over. Therefore, the scout had to return to the city to report, and his exact words were that it was at least a Seven Leaves Purple Ginseng. After more than a year of nurturing by the medical system of the Wuji Continent, and especially after taking over the Medicine Hall of Wuxuan Wuji Hall, Yun Sheng had greatly enhanced her knowledge of Holy Herbs. Nine is a very special number on the Wuji Continent. From the supreme dignity of nine-five to the Flood Dragon growing nine claws and transforming into a dragon, Holy Herbs undergo a qualitative leap when they advance to nine leaves, nine blossoms, or nine fruits. If this Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng matures without incident, the moment it matures, it will be a Divine-grade Herb. The efficacy of a Divine-grade Herb is far beyond simply bringing the dead back to life. At this moment, on the nine leaves of the Purple Ginseng resembling purple agates, a flower crown akin to agate beads had already blossomed. That was the Purple Ginseng Flower. Its current color was still a light yellow. When the Purple Ginseng absorbed enough Spiritual Energy from heaven and earth and the agate beads on the flower crown turned vermilion red, it indicated that the Nine-leaf Purple Ginseng was about to mature. These demon beasts, wounded after their struggles, were also quite clever. Although the Purple Ginseng has not fully matured yet, the fragrance it emits is also a rich Spiritual Energy. Under the enveloping Spiritual Energy, both the wounds and cultivation of the demon beasts could be significantly enhanced. "Bobbie, take a careful look at the situation, we should retreat for now," Yun Sheng checked the time; her fusion with Bobbie was very brief, she could not afford to linger any longer, lest they be flattened by a claw from that nearly Domain Level demon beast. After leaving Luoxia Wetland, Yun Sheng immediately returned to her residence. The current situation was a bit worse than she had anticipated. If not in a fusion state, it was not just difficult to get close to the Purple Ginseng’s location, but also challenging to break through the barrier of the mid-level demon beasts outside the perimeter. However, there was still a possibility of snatching that Purple Ginseng. In her possession were the Ant King and Summoning Demon Hand; if it really came down to a tough fight, she was confident in her own protection. The only thing she could do now was wait. Early the next day, Yun Sheng heard from Zhou Quan, who had gathered information in the city, that there would be a major auction event in the city. Yun Sheng decided to attend the auction to have a look. She had a few bottles of newly concocted Moon God’s Praise, which she planned to use to establish the reputation of Little Ci’en Hall, so she made detailed inquiries about the location of the Luoxia City Auction. Yun Sheng stepped outside; after last night, Ye Beiming seemed to have disappeared, and while she enjoyed the newfound quiet, it made her feel unaccustomed for no apparent reason. Lately, that guy had been following her every day, and now that he was gone, something seemed to be missing. She shook her head to clear her thoughts and asked passersby for directions to the auction, finding the Wuji Auction House without trouble. Luoxia City hosted the largest auction on the Wuji Continent, the Wuji Auction, which also had a presence in Yujing City, although Yun Sheng had not had the chance to attend an auction there before. She never expected to participate in a local auction in Hou Qin this time. The Wuji Auction House was part of the Wuji Commerce, the largest commerce in the Wuji Continent. The auction house was quite large; when Yun Sheng entered, it was already bustling with people inside. There were two entrances at the entry point: one for sellers and another for buyers. The buyers’ entrance is not open on regular days but only on auction days. The fifteenth and first days of each month are the auction days. As soon as Yun Sheng entered, a member of the auction staff immediately came forward and politely inquired, "Welcome to the Wuji Auction, may I ask if you, Mage, are here to buy or sell something?" "I would like to auction off some magic potions," Yun Sheng glanced around, noticing many people who had come to participate in the auction. In their hands, they held cards of different colors, which she surmised to be special membership cards of the auction house. "Ah, a respected Magic Pharmacist. May I ask what Rank your magic potions are and what effects they have?" While the staff member was very respectful in his speech, he couldn’t hide a tinge of disappointment when he heard that the auction items were magic potions. After all, Hou Qin was a martial arts nation, with not many magicians, which in turn meant a limited market for magic potions. "They are High-grade Magic Potions. As for their effects, they can improve a person’s Magic Physique," Yun Sheng had only concocted Moon God’s Praise twice: the first time during the assessment, and the second after that. Lately, because Yun Sheng was busy treating her uncle Yun Canglang’s hands, she had no time to produce this kind of potion in large quantities. "Does it enrich the Magic Elements within one’s body, or does it purify the Magic Soul?" The staff member continued to ask patiently. "The potion’s effect is to directly transform the physique of those without a Magic Physique, elevating them to a Magician," answered Yun Sheng. "What?! Can it really grant a Magic Physique to someone who originally lacks one?" The casual staffer’s face instantly changed. He hurried to call for the auction house’s Chief Auctioneer, who was also the steward, to relay this incredible news to him.
