Chapter 74: 40,000 Spiritual Stones, Black Whale City is a good place

A month and a half later.

Having had enough of living in the Black Whale Blessed Land, Shen Lian packed up and left the cave.

As soon as I reached the foot of the mountain, I heard a familiar melody in my ears.

Following the sound, I looked over and saw an extremely gorgeous hall standing at the foot of the mountain.

On the plaque erected above the main hall, the three simple characters "Shengxian Palace" shine brightly.

The familiar melody comes from this hall. The square outside the hall is filled with paper-made Taoist boys and fairy palaces. You can also see more than a dozen figures puffing out their cheeks and playing the suona in the hall.

After a quick glance, Shen Lian's mind captured the whole story.

When he was building the foundation, fellow Taoists were also building the foundation in the Black Whale Blessed Land Cave.

It's just that this foundation-building fellow Taoist was not very lucky and ended up in the cave.

The Hailing Sect relies on the location advantage of Black Whale City to deepen service reforms and provide one-stop services of immortal Taoist care for monks who have failed to attack and build foundations.

As long as there are enough spiritual stones, monks who were unable to build a foundation during their lifetime will be able to help them become immortals later.

It seems that this unlucky fellow Taoist had some status and financial resources during his lifetime. There were quite a few monks who entered the temple to worship, and several of them were at the ninth level of Qi training.

The faces of these fellow Taoists were solemn, with a hint of desolation and confusion in their expressions.

Looking at the coffins in the main hall is like looking at my future self.

As soon as he succeeded in building the foundation, he met a fellow Taoist who was also building the foundation. Shen Lian sighed softly, how could this omen be broken?

When he walked around the main hall and was about to leave, a monk who had walked out of the main hall after worshiping was first stunned, and then bowed and saluted from a distance of dozens of feet.

Shen Lian immediately realized that he was now undergoing a major foundation building overhaul.

Even though he had stabilized his realm and restrained his aura, he still had not completely restrained it, which could still be vaguely felt by the ninth-level qi-training monk who was so close.

A little conspicuous.

Shen Lian was a little uncomfortable with being worshiped for the first time.

Back at the Jingxin Alchemy Shop, one of the Luo Yang brothers was on duty at the shop, while the other one was still greeting alchemy buyers on the street.

"Shopkeeper."

Luo Fei walked out of the counter and saluted respectfully.

The two brothers and sister have been very measured in the shop in the past few years. Even if Shen Lian gave him some knowledge of medicinal herbs, they only dared to call Shen Lian the shopkeeper.

On the road to immortality, the master-disciple inheritance was very important, and the two of them did not dare to overstep, for fear of offending Shen Lian and being kicked out.

"How's the store going during this time?"

"More than half of the Huangya Pill and Huiyuan Pill that the shopkeeper reserved before were sold, four Barrier-Breaking Pills were sold, and one Ziyang Pill was sold. In addition..."

With that said, Luo Fei handed the storage bag to Shen Lian, lowered his head and his cheeks were slightly red.

"Besides, all the Happy Pills are sold out."

Shen Lian's mind swept through the storage bag. In addition to a few remaining pills, there were an additional 2,450 spiritual stones in the bag.

Nearly 2,500 spiritual stones can be sold in more than a month. His shop is still deep in the alley, which shows that Black Whale City is prosperous.

Every time he goes out, he will prepare a batch of commonly used elixirs such as Huangya Dan, and he will also prepare a few pills of rank-breaking and nourishing elixirs.

As for the Happy Pill, this thing is a pill certified by the Fairy Sister of Hongyanfang. Many upright monks will secretly buy it privately.

As the name suggests, Happy Pill will make you very happy when you communicate with the fairy sister after eating it.

Cultivation of immortality is already very tiring, so naturally everyone must know how to enjoy themselves in time.

The cost of a Happy Pill is about the same as that of the Huangya Pill, but the price is four times that of the Huangya Pill, selling for twenty spiritual stones each.

Originally, Shen Lian didn't want to sell this elixir, but after thinking that he couldn't help his fellow Taoist family members lower the price of the elixir, he broke his promise and felt guilty.

If it can no longer provide happiness to fellow Taoists, then what's the point of being an alchemist?

Besides, fellow Taoists who often buy Happy Pills don’t expect them to cultivate immortality seriously. Buying cultivation pills is not a waste of spiritual stones.

He doesn't feel guilty at all for earning these spiritual stones from fellow Taoists.

Shen Lian originally wanted to launch the Yin-Yang Reversal Pill and Longfeng Danluan Pill, but in the end he gave it up after thinking it over and over again and felt that it was too eye-catching and expensive, and not suitable for the happiness of most Taoist friends.

With such a large turnover in a single month, Happy Dan accounts for nearly a quarter, and there is a trend of continuous improvement.

This is largely due to the lively entertainment industry in Black Whale City.

Second floor.

Pour out the spiritual stones from the storage bag and look at the glittering spiritual stones piled up into a hill.

Shen Lian sighed, "Earn spiritual stones, it's not shabby."

Can you blame him? He practices alchemy just to earn spiritual stones.

Who doesn’t want to be a serious alchemist, but they can’t resist fellow Taoists who like to walk by water.

If he doesn't sell happy pills, other alchemists will sell them if he can't stand it.

Since he also launched the Happy Pill, the monthly elixir sales have been around 2,000 spiritual stones. Excluding the cost and the purchase of other spiritual stones, he has now accumulated nearly 40,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

It was stable and stable, and there were a group of loyal customers and Taoist friends who engaged in womanizing. Black Whale City was a place that Shen Lian didn't want to leave.

He thought he could launch an upgraded version of Longfeng Dialuan Pills and take the path of a ninth-level qi-training monk.

There are too many ninth-level qi-training monks in the world of immortality who have lost their dream of building a foundation. There are many people who want to be immortals, and these people have richer spiritual stones.

"I am a serious alchemist."

Shen Lian rubbed his forehead, looked at the spirit stone in front of him and sighed softly.

Just say which spiritual stone here is not serious?

Putting the spirit stone into the storage bag, Shen Lian sat down.

[Shen Lian: Build the first level of foundation]

[Five Elements Spiritual Roots: Fire 100 Earth 31 Gold 31 Wood 31 Water 31]

[Fire Magical Power: Tianyan Fire Domain]

[Spiritual Thought: Six hundred and ten feet]

[Alchemist: First level high grade (1/10000) cannot be broken through]

[talisman master: second-level low-grade (1/20000) cannot be broken through]

[Beast Control: First-level middle-grade (1/3000) cannot be broken through]

——Expand——

[Enlightenment point: 16521]

[Enlightenment Points: 0]

Normal foundation-building monks can break through the first level in five to ten years, which is considered a very fast cultivation speed. There are also those who can even break through the first level in a short time in three to five years.

Of course, more foundation-building monks may not be able to break through to the first level even after more than ten years.

After practicing to the foundation building stage, Shen Lian will have a lot of time to improve various skills.

At the moment, he is also considering which skill he will use his insights points to improve next.

Upgrading the alchemy skills to the second level will help to refine the elixirs for practice, and can also be exchanged for more spiritual stones.

The skills of beast control also need to be improved. After being promoted to foundation building, Dahei and Sanqian will be too weak to effectively complete the functions of guarding the home and the courtyard.

But Shen Lian also wanted to practice formations and puppetry.

Puppet masters in the world of immortality have two ways. One way is to use the body of a monster as a material, put a puppet restriction into the monster's body, and refine it into a puppet monster.

In this way, the grade of the puppet depends on the grade of the monster. The puppet master also needs to spend effort when refining, otherwise the puppet's grade will easily drop.

For example, a late-level second-level monster, after being successfully refined, becomes a low-level second-level puppet, which can only exert the combat power of the first and second levels of foundation building.

Another way is to use various materials to refine and combine puppets, which involves a bit of weapon refining skills.

For example, using third-order low-grade materials as the main material, combined with a variety of second-order materials, and more first-order materials, it can be refined into a third-order mid-grade puppet, with combat power comparable to that of a mid-stage Golden Core.

From the beginning, Shen Lian was obsessed with making puppets so that he didn't have to do the dirty work himself.

Puppet masters in the world of immortality have left many legends. Dacheng puppet masters control dozens or hundreds of puppets and can easily destroy a sect.

As for practicing formations, it is also very necessary. In the future, the world of immortal cultivation will be chaotic. If you are an formation master, it will be easier to arrange formations according to local conditions.

"Hey, let's improve our alchemy skills first."

After much thought, Shen Lian decided to improve his alchemy skills first.

Whether it's puppets, formations, or talismans, if you want to buy so many materials, you may not be able to make money quickly with first-level elixirs.

Not to mention anything else, as an alchemist, you can't even take second-level elixirs. That would be a huge failure.

Besides, staying in Black Whale City is quite stable. If you stay in the city for a few years with puppetry and formation techniques, you will have enough enlightenment points.

In the following days, Shen Lian refined some elixirs, including Happy Pills, and gave them to Luo Fei for sale. He left Black Whale City and headed to Black Rock Island, preparing to refining the Five Elements Mountain.

I contacted the editor today. I have 1,500 points to pursue, and it’s a bit uncertain whether I can get to Sanjiang. If my grades are not good enough for Sanjiang, it may be put on the shelves on Friday.

I still want to read it!
