Chapter 599: Chapter 597: The Little Spirit Plant Master Who Sells Pills_1
The missing key elixir recipe information in “Apothecary Seven Chapters” in his hand made Lu Xuan feel a momentary vulnerability that he couldn’t help but curse the Primordial Infant True Monarch behind it.
However, he also understood that this was very likely an effect of the light cluster rewards. He had had similar experiences before, where he needed to open several reward clusters to piece together cultivation techniques, puppets, and other items.
“I guess I’ll have to wait until the Medicinal Pangolin advances to fifth rank before I can get the latter part of the ‘Apothecary Seven Chapters’ from the light cluster rewards.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself.
However, even just the first three chapters are extremely useful for him.
They allow him to better understand alchemy knowledge, while also allowing him to infer the necessary spiritual plants based on elixir information and plant properties. This way, he can purposefully receive rewards from light clusters.
Based on his previous experience in cultivating spiritual plants, there’s a high probability that he could attain the corresponding Elixir Recipe Experience Package from it.
As he had been staying in his cave dwelling for a long time, he planned to venture out to buy some necessary cultivation materials and, in the meantime, sell some Foundation Establishment Pills to test the waters.
He activated two fifth-grade formation methods, the Illusion and Disappearance Five Elements Array and the Cloud Bamboo Arrow Formation, instructed the Grass Puppet carrying four Arrow Vines to properly watch over the Spirit Field, and then went through the Thundercloud Vortex to the Star Plucking Building.
He smoothly entered the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce and was quickly greeted by a charming servant.
“Pleased to meet you. If there is anything you need, just let me know,” she said, her voice soft and pleasant.
“I was thinking of selling some third-grade Foundation Building Pills. I don’t know if you can handle this?” Lu Xuan communicated with her through a message spell.
After entering the Liyang Region, he had paid attention to information regarding Foundation Establishment Pills.
Back in East Wasteland, the control of Foundation Establishment Pills belonged to the sects, the number of pills that appeared on the market was extremely small, and when sold, one needed to be careful to conceal their identity.
But in the Liyang Region of Central State, third-grade Foundation Establishment Pills are just one of the rarer same-grade elixirs. They’re even sold in other stores within the Star Plucking Building, let alone in the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce, another power of equal standing in the Liyang Region.
The servant girl didn’t have the authority to handle this matter, so she quickly called for the hostess of the local branch.
The hostess was none other than the Wenwan with whom Lu Xuan had previously dealt.
Seeing Lu Xuan, a genuine smile appeared on her face, and she greeted warmly, “Friend Lu, it’s been a while.”
The hostess remembered Lu Xuan well, having previously purchased from him a rare fourth-grade magical tool called the Qingwei Jade Lock.
“Good to see you, Taoist friend Wen,” Lu Xuan replied, returning the greeting with a fist and palm salute.
“I heard from my servant girl that you’re planning to sell some third-grade Foundation Establishment Pills?” The Wenwan asked softly, a hint of surprise appearing in her eyes.
“I didn’t expect you to be proficient in both cultivation of spiritual plants and pill production.”
“When you cultivate too many spiritual plants, you might want to try your hand at making elixirs, trying to save some spiritual stones.”
Lu Xuan said calmly, providing a plausible explanation for his actions.
As a Spirit Plant Master, it’s normal to try your hand at making elixirs, right?
The Wenwan led Lu Xuan into a spacious and elegant room.
“Please allow me to examine the quality of the Foundation Establishment Pills.”
“Of course.”
Lu Xuan nodded slightly and a Foundation Establishment Pill appeared in his hand, floating to the Wenwan.
The Wenwan received the pill and carefully examined it.
“The surface of the elixir is covered with spiritual patterns and there are no impurities or defects. It looks good.”
Immediately, she poured her spiritual sense into the pill.
“It contains a large amount of pure spiritual energy, which integrates perfectly with the pill itself. The quality is top-notch.”
“Overall, it’s significantly better than a regular Foundation Establishment Pill.”
Admiration shone in her eyes.
Lu Xuan slightly smiled; having absorbed so many Pill Formula Experience Packages and with the help of the Medicinal Pangolin cleaning away the residual pill toxin from the elixir, the quality was naturally extraordinary.
“Friend Lu, how many Foundation Establishment Pills do you have in your possession? Is their quality similar to this one?” After meticulously inspecting the Pill, the Wenwan asked.
“In total, there are twenty, all of similar quality.”
“Twenty?!”
Upon hearing this, the soft-spoken female cultivator gasped in surprise.
She had seen a lot and knew that producing twenty Foundation Establishment Pills of such quality at once was not something that an ordinary alchemist could accomplish.
“I’ve been accumulating them for a long time, and I specifically picked the best quality, hence the quantity.”
Lu Xuan then took out nineteen more Foundation Establishment Pills, held them up with spiritual power, and floated them in front of the female cultivator.
Brightening her eyes by several degrees, the female cultivator carefully inspected each pill one by one.
“Indeed, the quality of each one is good.”
She sighed lightly and nodded in agreement.
“If Master Wen is satisfied, please name your price.”
Laughed Lu Xuan.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Twenty… how about 3,200 low-grade spirit stones each? How does Friend Lu feel about this?”
She suggested tentatively.
Lu Xuan lowered his head, pondering in his heart.
Back in Sword Gate Town, he had sold Foundation Establishment Pills in Wanbao Building for a price of 2,000 spirit stones each.
The prices in the Liyang Region are much higher than those in the East Wasteland. When he previously sold the Qingwei Jade Lock, the final price was 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.
Among the elixirs of the same grade, the Foundation Establishment Pill is one of the most valuable. Furthermore, the quality of the pills that Lu Xuan has put on sale is excellent. Hence, the price suggested by the graceful female cultivator is reasonable.
“3,300 spirit stones, these twenty Foundation Establishment Pills will then belong to you, Taoist friend Wen.”
He slightly raised the price.
“Alright, deal.”
The female cultivator did not hesitate and agreed readily.
Although the price was relatively high, such good quality Foundation Establishment Pills would still make a small profit.
“However, I have a small request. If Friend Lu refines Foundation Establishment Pills of this quality in the future, I hope you can consider our Chamber of Commerce first.”
“The price amongst our peers will definitely be above average.”
She looked at Lu Xuan, and her eyes were shimmering.
“Of course, of course.”
Lu Xuan gladly agreed. The Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce’s reputation and strength are exceptional, and it would be nice to establish a stable channel with them.
Upon hearing his words, the female cultivator’s smile deepened, and her eyes became noticeably more lively and enthusiastic when she looked at Lu Xuan.
Soon, a Foundation Establishment cultivator brought 660 middle-grade spirit stones into the room.
“Please count them, Friend Lu. If there are no problems, the deal will be officially concluded.”
Lu Xuan nodded and briefly swept his spiritual sense over them.
“Correct, Friend Wen, it was a pleasure doing business.”
“Please wait, Friend Lu.”
As he was about to leave, the female cultivator called him to stay.
“In some time, the Chamber of Commerce will host a large-scale auction. There will be many high-grade rare spiritual seeds available. To my knowledge, there will even be sixth-grade spiritual seeds, in addition to strange rare spiritual seeds from other realms.”
“If Friend Lu is interested, you might want to prepare in advance.”
“Sixth-grade spirit seeds?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan paused, a strong interest welling up in his heart.
“It’s indeed the Sea Tower Chamber of Commerce; they actually have such high-grade spiritual seeds for sale. It would be such a pity if I were to miss this opportunity.”
Every fifth-grade and sixth-grade spiritual plant in his cave dwelling had been hard to come by. Whenever high-grade spiritual seeds appeared, he would naturally not miss the chance.
“Thank you for the reminder, Friend Wen.”
He expressed his gratitude to the female cultivator.
