Chapter 68: Second-level monster, Pei Huoyu goes north

The price of a first-grade high-grade Five Elements Meridian Smoothing Pill is only two to three hundred low-grade spiritual stones. Even if it is sold twice as rare, it will only cost a thousand spiritual stones.

For a thousand spiritual stones...

Shen Lian refused without thinking.

These people were wandering around the alchemy shops in the city. They were in a hurry and sought medical treatment.

"Go and do your work." Watching the three people leave, Shen Lian waved his hand to let Luo Yang continue his work, and he returned to the recliner and sat down.

If his guess was correct, Junior Sister Luo among the three of them might be someone from the Luo family they met on the way here.

Although he could be valued by the fake Dan real person, he still didn't show off by showing off.

He is not someone who is short of a thousand spiritual stones now.

Before building the foundation, all extraneous and unnecessary things should be kept away so as not to hinder the foundation building.

As noon approached, monks began to come in one after another to buy elixirs.

In the evening, Shen Lian went out.

After staying in Black Whale City for nearly half a year, he also successfully joined the Black Whale City Shopkeepers Alliance.

This name was chosen by Shen Lian himself.

At the beginning of this alliance, some shopkeepers got together in private to communicate with each other.

Later, the shopkeepers held this kind of gathering regularly, and it evolved into a bartering meeting and an exchange meeting.

Not all shopkeepers can participate. At the very least, the strength must be in the late stage of Qi training.

"Shopkeeper Ding."

As soon as Shen Lian went out, he met a fat shopkeeper walking out of the shop.

"Shopkeeper Lin."

Shopkeeper Lin is a talisman seller and comes from a foundation-building family in the waters of Black Whale Island.

"please."

After some humility, the two walked out of Hongfu Street together.

The shopkeeper's party was an upright affair, and the location was at the Haiyue Restaurant on another street.

When Shen Lian and the others arrived, many shopkeepers had already arrived in the restaurant and were chatting together.

The shopkeepers are so well informed.

"Fellow Daoist Ding, did you receive a big deal today?"

Alchemist Shen's identity was made public as soon as he came to Black Whale City, and he opened an alchemy shop here for nearly half a year.

The signboard of Jingxin Dan Shop is displayed on Hongfu Street.

Although there is no counterpart on Hongfu Street, there are four or five elixir shops on the streets in front and behind.

Colleagues are enemies, we don't say it openly, but a few words of banter are still very common.

The speaker's name is Wang Qian, and he is a first-level high-level alchemy master. However, it is said that refining first-level high-level elixirs does not happen very often, and it mainly depends on luck.

In addition to the alchemy shop opened by the family, most of the alchemists who opened the alchemy shop in Black Whale City are at the first-level mid-level level, and the quality of the elixirs they refine is not high, and almost none can refine middle-quality elixirs. .

Alchemists of this level are not rare in the sect, and they can earn some spiritual stones for casual cultivation.

But no matter how you put it, you can be regarded as leaving the lowest level of the world of immortality.

"There is a big deal, but I'm not good at learning and can't practice it."

Shen Lian smiled and replied.

"Five Elements Meridian Pill, this pill is so rare that it's probably not easy to find even if you go to Tiannan Cultivation World, let alone Black Whale City."

"I heard that the Yunshang Sect has accepted a new female disciple. This girl activated a certain physique and gave birth to five-colored spiritual pupils. However, due to her spiritual body, her spiritual power was disordered."

"I thought I could climb to the top of the Sect, and if I didn't, I would be able to show my face in front of the ancestor of Jindan. I didn't expect that I couldn't practice."

"Stop dreaming. The Five Elements Smoothing Meridian Pill is just a first-level pill. I don't think it has much effect. If it doesn't work by then, the ancestor of the Golden Pill will blame it. It's easy to walk around without being able to take it."

…

"This time Yunshang Sect is recruiting disciples in Black Whale City, but the scale is much larger than before. Even the number of Five Spirit Root monks recruited from casual cultivators is much higher than before."

…

Shen Lian found a seat and sat down, chatting with others while catching the words around him.

Half an hour later, the entire lobby on the first floor of the restaurant was filled with more than a hundred people.

Everyone had some exchanges first, and then started the bartering meeting.

The rules of the barter meeting are very simple. Taoist friends take turns to speak, sell or put forward their own needs.

If necessary, you can wait until the introduction is completed and then find the target for trading on your own.

It's just that when trading, it doesn't necessarily have to be spiritual stones. It depends on the needs of the owner of the spiritual object.

"I'll give you some ideas first."

The shopkeeper of Haiyue Tower, an old monk spoke first.

"The second-level demonic beast Golden Sword Scale Fish has no special needs for spiritual objects. Spiritual stones, elixirs, talismans, and magic weapons are all for the highest price."

As the shopkeeper Haiyuelou spoke, the other shopkeepers also stood up one after another.

"Last month, I accidentally got a water-based exercise that can be practiced to the third level of foundation building. I want to change it to a local exercise method."

"The core of the second-order water-scaled rhinoceros demon is exchanged for a second-order low-grade vitality pill."

"Xuanling Chalcedony, exchange for a Water Spirit Fruit."

…

"The auxiliary ingredient of the Foundation Building Pill, Golden Ginseng, can be exchanged for the Spiritual Stone."

"I want to buy a first-grade high-grade blood elf fruit."

…

"The one who is the shopkeeper is fat."

Of the various spiritual objects that Shen Lian heard mentioned, he could use several of them.

For example, demon cores, demonic beasts, foundation-building pill auxiliary materials, and mysterious chalcedony are the main materials for drawing talismans that can nourish.

When it was Shen Lian's turn, he also stood up and expressed his needs, asking for an Earth Dragon Vein Fruit.

This is an earth-attribute spiritual fruit that helps Dahei advance his bloodline.

After everyone finished speaking, the shopkeepers present began to interact, and Shen Lian walked towards the shopkeeper of Haiyuelou.

Shopkeeper Haiyuelou's conditions are the most lenient.

The second-level monsters are of great use to him. The monster core can be used to make elixirs, and the monster blood can be used to brew spiritual ink. Even if he doesn't do anything, he can use it to increase the power of his spiritual thoughts.

The transaction for the second-level Golden Sword Scale Fish went without any complications, and Shen Lian directly exchanged it for the spiritual stone.

The attack power of this kind of monster fish is not strong. As long as several ninth-level qi-training monks cooperate well, they have a great chance of killing the monster fish, but it is not easy to encounter in the vast ocean.

The purchase of the demon fish went smoothly, but the subsequent purchase of the Xuanling Chalcedony did not go so smoothly. The person who made the move refused to let go of the Water Spirit Fruit.

In desperation, Shen Lian turned his target to Jinjing Ginseng, an auxiliary ingredient of the Foundation Building Pill.

But this fellow Taoist ripped off the alchemist. It was just a kind of auxiliary medicine, and he asked for three thousand spiritual stones.

Shen Lian turned around and left.

This Taoist friend is not sincere at first sight.

As the most special elixir in the world of immortality, the Foundation Establishment Pill is only a second-level low-grade elixir, but its price is far higher than many third-level elixirs.

It can be said that the ancestor who invented the Foundation Establishment Pill is simply a true immortal in the hearts of immortal cultivators all over the world.

In ancient times, there was no foundation-building pill.

At that time, everyone could build a foundation.

Later, it didn't work anymore, and foundation building became a big problem.

Until the foundation-building pill came out, the human race immortal cultivators could give birth to more foundation-building monks.

The recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill is not a secret in the world of immortality, and is widely circulated, but there are not many alchemists who can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Many second-level senior alchemists can refine a variety of second-level elixirs, but they smashed the medicine cauldron during the process of refining the foundation-building elixir.

Nowadays, after years of development and inheritance, the foundation-building elixirs circulating in the world of immortality have emerged into two major branches.

One of the main medicines is Tianlingguo, Chalcedony Mushroom, and Hydrangea japonica, and it is also combined with 33 auxiliary medicines such as Jinjingshen.

For the second type, the main drug is the second-level special demon-like core, and is paired with more than thirty kinds of auxiliary drugs.

The so-called special demon core refers to a demon core that has gentle and pure attributes and does not have much of the violent aura of demons.

In addition, there are many sects that have a tradition of refining medicine and have fine-tuned the elixir recipes. This is the unique secret of each sect.

Generally speaking, the materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill are not of high quality, but the main ingredients are very rare, and artificial cultivation is relatively difficult. Only large sects and big families can cultivate them.

Occasionally, monks find them in wilderness, secret places and other places, and they will be scrambled by all parties.

This resulted in the prices of herbs related to Foundation Establishment Pills standing out from those of the same level, and soaring all the way to the top.

There is also a rumor that no matter what level of alchemist, when refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, only three Foundation Establishment Pills can be produced in one furnace.

After the entire barter conference, Shen Lian obtained a second-level demon fish. The Earth Dragon Vein Fruit he wanted was not collected by any of his fellow Taoists.

But this harvest is not bad, and the second-level monsters are not easy to encounter usually.

Early the next morning, Shen Lian left a storage bag for the Luo Yang brothers and sisters, containing some elixirs for sale later.

And he left Black Whale City.

After leaving Black Whale City, he did not enter the sea first. Instead, he got into a nearby jungle, changed his appearance again, and then came out in a universal spirit boat.

He had just bought this spirit boat not long ago. It was of popular style. Throwing a stone outside Black Whale City would hit several boats of the same style.

After driving the spirit boat three hundred miles away, and seeing no one on the sea, he released the Feiyu and sped away.

Haiqiong Island.

This place is 1,300 miles away from Black Whale Island. There is a mortal city in the southernmost plain area of ​​the island, which is under the jurisdiction of Hailing Sect.

On the island, there are also middle-stage Qi-training monks stationed by the Hailing Sect.

After Shen Lian circled Haiqiong Island three times, he took advantage of the darkness and entered the jungle from the north of the island.

"……Owner."

In the lush jungle on the island, Dahei came out after sensing Shen Lian's aura.

"Master, this island is not good. Monks often pass by, and there are still monks practicing here."

Dahei led Shen Lian and found several caves on the island. Some of the caves had collapsed, while others were still intact. It was easy to tell how long they had been opened.

"I was almost discovered and built an ant nest three hundred feet underground."

Randomly choosing an abandoned cave to stay in, Shen Lian took out a map and crossed out Haiqiong Island.

I originally thought that there were monks from the Hailing Sect in charge, so he came here to have fun under the lights and transform the place into a temporary residence. Unexpectedly, some fellow Taoists also came with him.

I am not alone in my ways.

After resting all night, he left Haiqiong Island with Dahei at dawn the next day.

Next target, Black Rock Island.

…

Black Whale Island is thousands of miles away to the south.

A fleet of three treasure ships is sailing.

On the treasure ship in the middle, there are tall pavilions.

In one of the rooms, there are breathing charms posted around it, blocking the breath from flowing out of the room.

Pei Huoyu sat cross-legged on the futon, his aura surging, and the five colors of mana intertwined to form a small colorful ball in his Dantian.

With the appearance of the small ball, all the spiritual energy in his body began to gather in his Dantian, and his complexion became unnaturally pale.

"Condensation!"

"puff!"

A quarter of an hour later, the colorful small ball in the dantian went straight up and came out of Pei Huoyu's mouth, mixed with a trace of blood.

First, he took out the jade bottle and poured the pill into his mouth. Pei Huoyu pinched the colorful small ball in his hand, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
