Chapter 203 A Pleasant Surprise!
Upon opening the box, Qin Jiang indeed saw many herbs and similar items inside.
Quickly, he found the Hundred Bell Flower he was looking for.
"With this, I can refine the Qi Sea Elixir," Qin Jiang could hardly contain his excitement.
After all, the Hundred Bell Flower was more crucial to him now than anything else.
He had to have the Qi Sea Elixir to stand a chance against Chu Tianjiao.
The Chu Family was an extremely powerful clan.
Even if he dealt with Chu Tianjiao, what he would have to face next... was the entire Chu Family!
He had to make himself stronger.
Ling Qingxue genuinely rejoiced for Qin Jiang, smiling as she said, "It seems these guys haven't transported the items out yet, the Hundred Bell Flower Mr. Qin wanted is still here."
"Let's see what else is here."
This place seemed to be the treasure trove of the Rakshasa stronghold, holding many items they had left behind after completing their missions.
These would all be very precious items in the outside world.
For them, this was also a significant gain.
Qin Jiang nodded and searched through the place but did not find anything he particularly wanted.
However, soon, his eyes narrowed slightly and landed on a piece of bronze ware.
"Alchemy Cauldron!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He was overjoyed.
After all, in this day and age, getting a good Alchemy Cauldron was no easy feat!
Alchemy was not a simple task.
The control required by the Alchemist, as well as the demands of the Alchemy Cauldron, were both very high; using a pressure cooker for alchemy was merely a joke—could the elixirs it produced even be used?
To put it in perspective, an elixir refined in a high-quality Alchemy Cauldron could be of top-grade quality, bringing out one hundred and twenty percent of its efficacy, but an elixir produced in a pressure cooker might only yield ten to twenty percent efficacy.
There was absolutely no comparison.
"I never expected to find a Pre-Qin era alchemy furnace in this place!"
Ling Qingxue frowned, "Alchemy furnace?"
"That's right," Qin Jiang nodded.
"Mr. Qin... You're an Alchemist?" Ling Qingxue was incredulous. Coming from a prestigious family, she naturally knew about elixirs. In the Divine Land, Alchemists were extremely rare and esteemed guests in all major special departments.
For instance, the Alchemists of the Martial Arts Bureau, even the Director of the Martial Arts Bureau had to treat them as honored guests.
He dared not show the slightest disrespect.
After all, if the Alchemist became unhappy, the entire Martial Arts Bureau would run out of elixirs.
That would be fatal.
She hadn't expected Qin Jiang to be an Alchemist too!
Qin Jiang smiled and said, "Miss Ling, I'm not asking for much; I'll take this alchemy furnace, if that's alright?"
Ling Qingxue agreed readily, "Mr. Qin, if it weren't for you today, it would still be uncertain whether we could have walked out of here alive or not."
"What's an Alchemy Cauldron in comparison?"
"Even if Mr. Qin wanted everything here, that would be totally justified."
Qin Jiang shook his head, "You can't say that; your subordinates played a significant role in us being able to fight our way here. We are partners; I can't monopolize these items."
"Sure!" Ling Qingxue nodded and said, "After we get out, I'll exchange these items for something useful. Mr. Qin, you take seventy percent, and I'll take thirty percent to reward my subordinates. How does that sound?"
Qin Jiang nodded. He wasn't short on money. Now that he had obtained the Hundred Bell Flower and the bronze Alchemy Cauldron he wanted, he was already very satisfied; everything else was secondary.
Qin Jiang, accompanied by Ling Qingxue, made his way out through the secret passage again.
"Miss, how did it go?" Feng Lin came over anxiously and asked.
"There are quite a few good things in there," Ling Qingxue said, "We'll have someone deal with them later."
"Uncle Feng, I'll trouble you with this."
Feng Lin nodded, his gaze complex as he looked at Qin Jiang, wanting to say something but not finding the words.
Qin Jiang didn't even spare him a glance and walked out.
The group left the place, leaving only a few to keep watch.
After Qin Jiang returned to Tianlong Garden, he immediately called Shen Longting to have the items delivered.
However, Shen Longting said that a few of the herbs would not arrive until the next day.
Qin Jiang could only wait patiently.
The next day, as soon as the herbs arrived, Qin Jiang immediately set about refining the Qi Sea Elixir.
