The alchemist from the Vermillion Pill Empire smiled faintly and continued, as if everything had already been carefully prepared.
"Today is a celebration for the birth of a new Grandmaster."
His voice carried smoothly across the hall.
"If we do not include something related to alchemy…"
A slight pause.
"…wouldn't that be a pity?"
A few nods appeared among the crowd.
After all, what was more fitting than alchemy in a celebration for a Grandmaster Alchemist?
He lifted his hand and a jade box appeared.
The moment it was opened, a dense, profound medicinal aura spread instantly across the hall.
Eyes widened.
"The Heavenly Tribulation Tempering Pill!"
Someone exclaimed in shock.
A ripple surged through the crowd.
This was no ordinary Grade-7 pill.
It was one of the most sought-after treasures for those at the Great Ascension Realm.
Even those who had tried to maintain composure could no longer hide the greed flickering in their eyes.
