現在冇有神元石。這可是中品神藥價格都是下品神藥的十倍，更何況是這種罕見的神藥。“這位大哥，我們現在的神元石不夠，你能給我們留一段時間嗎？等我們湊夠神元石再買！”沈翔尷尬地笑了笑：“我們上次合作得這麼愉快，就請答應我們這次吧！”“十天。你們來拳堂的天神九堂，找謝傲。總共四百萬神元石。十天後不來。若是有人購買，我就直接賣了。”這謝傲說完就轉身快步走了。“多謝！”沈翔喊了一聲，和馮羽潔相視一眼。這謝傲確...Chapter 636: Evolution of the Flame Soul

When Shen Xiang was about to head underground to search for Du Yanyao, she suddenly appeared above. She looked around and sighed, "I feel like my flame soul is about to evolve. It’s very unstable, looks like I can’t participate in the alchemy competition tomorrow!"

"What Flame soul evolving" Shen Xiang exclaimed. Although theoretically possible, he had never heard of it before.

"Yeah, I just feel like my flame soul is about to break through. I didn’t expect that as I reached the peak of a hundredfold refinement境界, with my physical body and True Qi growing larger, my flame soul also breaks through. I don’t know exactly what’s happening, but it happens two to three times each day now," Du Yanyao looked around with a helpless expression, explaining that it was caused by the burning sensation she experiences during her evolution.

"I have to contact my family quickly, and let them send someone to take care of the city lord’s affairs while I’m going through this phase! Sorry, I can’t join you in the alchemy competition," Du Yanyao regretfully looked at Shen Xiang.

Shen Xiang wiped the sweat off her face and smiled, "It’s okay. Flame soul evolution is very rare. It’s more important than the alchemy competition, can’t be delayed!"

Du Yanyao nodded and quickly arranged someone to contact her family. Then, she set up an array in the basement to prevent the hot air from leaking out and forbid anyone from approaching. Shen Xiang was staying in this courtyard, his house had turned into ashes, but the underground stone chamber remained intact.

Although it was night time, the news that Du Yanyao was退出 competition quickly spread throughout Saint Flame City. Especially for those who were participating in the alchemy competition, they felt a great relief as Du Yanyao’s high level of alchemy was well-known throughout the Saint Flame Realm and Chaos Mountain.

Many people still managed to hear that there was a great commotion when the city lord was in action, and such terrifying heat could not be concealed. It spread out, and many people believed that Du Yanyao had issues with her cultivation and couldn’t participate in the competition.

In the middle of the night, Shen Xiang and Du Yanyao were in this burnt-out courtyard where it was once very beautiful.

"Sorry, because of my cause, you don’t have a comfortable place to stay. You can go and stay at the hotel outside!" Du Yanyao’s beautiful face was filled with guilt.

Shen Xiang smiled and said, "It doesn’t matter. I’m usually staying in the secret room anyway. When you’re going to be in a long-term seclusion, eat this at that time, it might help you!"

It was a fragment of Heart Earth Spirit Fruit. When Shen Xiang obtained it, he cut many pieces from it although he gave some to others, there were still plenty left. Moreover, now that he has the God Essence Liquor, he could duplicate many of them anytime he had time.

Du Yanyao’s nose twitched slightly as she smelled the strange fragrance coming from Heart Earth Spirit Fruit, and instantly knew that this piece of fruit was not ordinary.

"What is it" Du Yanyao asked. Although they were together for a short time, she knew that Shen Xiang was always generous when it came to giving things. She was sure that this wasn’t something ordinary, and although she had only a small piece of fruit now, she felt that this might be one of the most advanced things she had seen in her lifetime.

Shen Xiang smiled and said, "It’s Heart Earth Spirit Fruit. Although it’s just a small piece, its effects are very large. Keep it for now and you have to digest it immediately after eating. It needs some time."

Du Yanyao was shocked, so it’s actually a Spirit Fruit! She of course heard about Heart Earth Spirit Fruit and the Great Flame Cauldron was also a holy land that every flame cultivator aspired to visit. Each world had them, but few people could ever go there. She also heard that there were many fire attributes genius treasures in the Great Flame Cauldron, they all had great value. Even some Fire Phoenixes and Flame Dragons existed there.

Now Du Yanyao understood why Shen Xiang was able to make Yan Zilan agree to bring her for cultivation. It seemed that Shen Xiang invested heavily, she only silently thanked him inside.

To participate in tomorrow’s alchemy competition, Du Yanyao advised Shen Xiang to rest early and adjust his state. Tomorrow she would return to her family to quietly cultivate.

In the morning, after saying goodbye to Shen Xiang, Du Yanyao left Saint Flame City. The new city lord would arrive in a few days and the affairs are now being managed by Du Kangsheng.

Participating in the Saint Flame Gathering’s alchemy competition was also held at the Saint Flame Plaza. The surrounding areas were owned by the Saint Flame Sect, including auction houses, hotels and alchemy drug stores. All these stores were owned by the Saint Flame Sect, so their businesses became extremely prosperous these days despite being priced higher than usual.

"Brother Shen, didn’t expect your wife to be like this" Fan Yakuun met Shen Xiang on his way to the Plaza and hurriedly asked him.

"It’s okay, just on the verge of breaking through and she has a flame soul. That caused her flame soul to be unstable, unable to participate in the alchemy competition," Shen Xiang explained.

"Haha, I was actually looking forward to seeing you two fight. What a pity!" Fan Yakuun smiled.

At this moment, Shen Xiang also considered Fan Yakuun his friend. If it wasn’t for Fan Yakuun, he wouldn’t have arrived in the Saint Flame Realm yet and Fan Yakuun also kept his identity secret.

Many people came to participate in the alchemy competition, and Shen Xiang saw over a thousand people lining up at the middle of the Plaza for the first screening round. This was to quickly eliminate some people who were just wasting their time.

"Test your flames. Those with flame souls pass the test, this first round should be able to eliminate about seven hundred people!" Fan Yakuun slapped in front of Shen Xiang and said approvingly.

"What about the second round" Shen Xiang asked. He was confident in his test of flames.

"The second round is to make the Five Elements True Essence Pill, using very poor ingredients given. You only have one chance here. Only twenty people can pass this round, those who make the best, fastest and largest quantity of pills," Fan Yakuun said mysteriously with a smile.

The flame test was very simple, just place your hand on a large white stone ball. If the fire power you inject is stronger, that stone ball will become brighter. It reaches a certain level of brightness before passing the test and it’s judged by those elders.

While they were waiting in line, Shen Xiang could occasionally see a dazzling light coming from the front. Each time would be followed by cheers due to someone having their strong flames, a thing many alchemists were envious of.

The testing time was very brief, if you didn’t make the stone ball bright within a specific time frame, you would be eliminated. Therefore, Shen Xiang and the others didn’t have to wait very long.

"Very soon it’s my turn. I wish I could water the test and withdraw, but I would definitely be scolded by my family," Fan Yakuun said with a撇嘴.費者剩餘無法通過提供的資訊來計算答案是（A），消費者剩餘 = 最高願意支付價格 - 實際購買價格。解釋：因為消費者的最高願意支付價格是$75，而實際購買價格是$50。所以，消費者剩餘可以通過將消費者的最高願意支付價格（$75）減去實際購買價格（$50）來計算，結果是$25。這個差額表示消費者因購買商品而獲得的額外價值。這裡，消費者的最高願意支付價格是他們在決策是否購買某物時的心理界限。即使實際購買...
