Cultivation World 17 Daily Alchemy

"You've gathered so much Moon Spirit Grass. Do you plan to refine it into medicine before leaving, or do you plan to refine it on the way?"

On the morning of the second day after staying in Jinbao City, Ling Xiyuan looked at the five space gourds filled with Moon Spirit Grass and asked.

"I'll see how much I can refine today. If there's still time, we'll leave as planned." Xie Yunsui said.

The two of them hadn't slept all night, having spent the entire night gathering Moon Spirit Grass. Now they were both meditating and regulating their breathing to regain their energy.

They ordered breakfast at the nearby inn. Xie Yunsui set up soundproofing and protective formations in the room, ready to start refining the elixir immediately.

Ling Xiyuan said, "I'm going out for a walk."

Xie Yunsui nodded.

This was Ling Xiyuan's first time in Jinbao City. He was unfamiliar with the town and planned to find some good food spots in advance.

Jinbao City is much more luxurious than the small town at the foot of Hengwuge Mountain. There are lively hawking sounds on both sides of the street from time to time, and people come and go, full of the atmosphere of fireworks.

Ling Xiyuan was born handsome and had an immortal-like demeanor, which often attracted the attention of mortals, who looked at him with envy and a hint of fear.

He hadn't taken a few steps when a middle-sized man with a beaming face approached him. "Greetings, Immortal Master. I'm the steward of the City Lord's residence. My name is Jia He. We've prepared a sumptuous feast. Immortal Master, please step forward. My City Lord will surely entertain you well."

Behind this person was an extremely luxurious carriage. It seemed that it had been waiting outside the inn for a long time, waiting for people to come out.

Ling Xiyuan and his companions did not stay in the same inn with Zhu Ming and his group, so it was unknown whether they were invited.

However, he had heard from his senior brothers and sisters before that the powerful people in the mortal world were very polite to cultivators.

Firstly, there is a huge disparity in power between the two sides. Even a cultivator in the Qi training stage can kill dozens of mortals without bloodshed, so they dare not offend him.

Secondly, everyone has the desire to become an immortal, but if there is no way, then just cast a wide net and you will always meet a kind-hearted immortal master.

The Lord of Jinbao City was not from an immortal sect, and there were no powerful cultivators in his mansion, so he warmly invited every immortal master who came to the city.

Ling Xiyuan said: "No need, I have something else to do."

Jia He was also not without tact. Seeing this, he took a brocade box from the carriage and presented it to the master, bowing very low. "If the immortal master has important matters to attend to, my city lord would not bother you. This is my city lord's offering. I hope the immortal master will accept it."

When his spiritual sense swept over, he saw ten plump gold ingots inside.

The city lord was born a mortal, so it was impossible for him to offer the monks' treasures, and he did not have the financial resources to do so. So he presented something that was extremely valuable to mortals to show his kindness.

Jia He was very cautious, fearing that he might do something wrong and bring displeasure upon the immortal master.

Ling Xiyuan didn't want to have too much to do with mortals, so he refused in a gentle but unquestionable tone, and said that there was no need to disturb the other person in the inn, and asked him to leave.

After Jia He was sure that the immortal master really didn't want to be disturbed and was not just being humble and would not retaliate, he said goodbye and left.

Alas, it’s not easy to be a city lord these days.

Ling Xiyuan could actually understand it. His master said that it would be difficult for a cultivator to practice if he had too many concerns. If it was family relatives, it would be fine, but it would be better to stay away from other people.

When those people see that you look cold, they are afraid that you are dissatisfied. When they see that you look too good, they are afraid that they are not serving you well enough. In short, they can imagine a lot about your every move. They are afraid that if you sneeze, they will not be able to sleep for several days and nights.

Ling Xiyuan turned a few roads and came to the most prosperous and spacious street in the city. There were many alchemy workshops, weapon workshops, and spiritual plant shops here, which were specifically designed to supply the monks passing by.

Ling Xiyuan looked up at the sign and entered a spiritual plant shop.

"I have met the Immortal Master. I wonder if you want to buy or sell?"

The waiter here was about thirty or forty years old, with a faint aura about him, and was at the initial stage of Qi training.

Ling Xiyuan just thought he would take a look first, so the man waited on the side.

This spiritual plant shop is quite large. Ling Xiyuan followed Xie Yunsui to identify most of the spiritual plants for yellow-level elixirs and found that they were all available here. There were also many spiritual plants for black-level elixirs on the second floor, and they were well preserved.

Xie Yunsui's speed in refining pills was fast, and his speed in consuming spiritual plants was also unmatched by ordinary people. He would refine pills whenever he was bored in the carriage. Now that most of the spiritual plants he had saved had been consumed, it was time to buy some more.

The waiter in the store followed Ling Xiyuan and sighed inwardly when he saw that he just glanced at the whole thing and didn't pay much attention to any spiritual plants.

Ever since the news of the auction being held in Hualuo City spread, it attracted many cultivators there, and the business of all the shops catering to cultivators in Jinbao City has declined.

No matter how good the storage method of spiritual plants is, the spiritual energy will begin to dissipate slowly after more than three months. Now, more than two months have passed, and their business is very slow.

Many alchemy practitioners would rather wait until they reach Hualuo City, where there will definitely be a large number of cultivators selling spiritual plants in exchange for spiritual stones. If they negotiate, the price will be much cheaper.

The spiritual plants they harvested here were already quite expensive. If they were to lower the price, these past few months would be wasted.

Just when he thought Ling Xiyuan was just going to take a look and leave, he suddenly heard him say, "Pack up all the spiritual plants you have here."

"……ah?"

Ling Xiyuan put down the spirit stone bag and said with a smile: "All."

After putting all the things into the space gourd, Ling Xiyuan went to the weapon workshop next door.

The waiter of the spiritual plant shop stood at the door with a dazed look on his face. He couldn't believe that on such an ordinary day, the store had completed such a big transaction.

The owner of the alchemy shop across the street saw his subtle expression and thought there was no business again. He stood at the door and said cheerfully, "What do you think? How long will you take this matter? It's a waste of time to keep these spiritual plants. Why not sell them to us at a low price? At least you can make a profit."

The waiter came back to his senses, a smile appeared on his face, he leaned sideways and said, "Oh, it's really not a loss."

The owner of the alchemy shop took a closer look and was shocked to see that the shelves and cabinets were completely empty, as if they had just been robbed.

The waiter stretched and yawned. "I haven't been able to sleep well these past few days. I have to inform the shopkeeper right away. I can have a good rest now."

The owner of the alchemy shop: "..."

Damn it! Such a sinister face!

Could it be that a team of alchemists has arrived in the city? Buying so many spiritual plants isn't a worry that they'll be wasted if they can't refine them all!

Three days passed in a flash, and Xie Yunsui finally finished refining all the Moon Spirit Grass in his hand.

Ling Xiyuan touched his face and said, "You haven't had a good rest these days. Can I help you sell these pills?"

Xie Yunsui asked, "Most of the clients for the Zhuyan Pill are princes and nobles. Do you have any connections in this area?"

Ling Xiyuan smiled and said, "No, but it's the same if I sell it to the Danfang. They have their own customers."

Xie Yunsui thought for a moment and said, "That's good. It saves us the trouble."

"I've visited all the alchemy shops in Jinbao City these past few days. There are three in total, all of similar size. The pills they sell are mainly basic medicines. There aren't many high-quality pills, and even fewer top-quality pills. These pills of yours..."

Most of Xie Yunsui's finished pills are of top quality. If you just take them over like this, it might cause a lot of misunderstanding.

"No problem, it's a good opportunity to spread my reputation."

Anyway, you go to the auction to make a name for yourself, so it doesn't matter if you go a little earlier or later.

Xie Yunsui customized a batch of special medicine bottles, engraved the name "Char" on them, and also drew a formation to prolong the loss of the elixir's spiritual energy in preparation for this.

Ling Xiyuan said: "If you want to make a name for yourself, you have to go there in person. I know nothing about refining pills."

He synchronized the data researched by the town's alchemy and weapon workshops over the past two days to Xie Yunsui, and left the rest to him to choose.

Unexpectedly, he inquired about so many things. Xie Yunsui put his head on Ling Xiyuan's shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"You and I each have our own responsibilities, so it's not that hard." Ling Xiyuan was very glad that he could do something for him.

He doesn't know how to make pills, refine weapons, or set up formations. He also doesn't have many spirit stones, so I can't always buy treasures for him.

Even the joint orders with the sect could not help him, and they could only watch him work hard alone.

He could only work harder in other areas. He attended every spiritual plant cultivation course taught by Xie Yunsui in the pavilion, memorized all the spiritual plant atlases and the usage of refining materials given to him, and learned as much as possible.

When two people are together, they always have to work hard together.

-

Xie Yunsui randomly found the largest alchemy shop and went in, saying that he was there to sell pills.

The shopkeeper was not here today, so the steward Yan Feng came to receive him. When he saw the full bottle of top-grade elixirs, he hurriedly invited Xie Yunsui to the inner room.

The Rejuvenating Pill is not in great demand among cultivators, but alchemy shops still like to collect such pills because they are easy to sell. The princes and nobles like the ones with good appearance, and money is not a problem.

When Yan Feng saw that the elixir in the bottle was of top quality and learned that it was made by Xie Yunsui himself, he felt the desire to make friends with him.

"Today, I will make a decision and buy these bottles of medicine from you at the price we sell them for. Just consider it as a friendship. Thank you, if you have such good medicine in the future, just bring it to us. We will buy it at a high price."

Xie Yunsui raised an eyebrow: "Manager Yan, you're too polite."

"I'm sincere. Even if our shopkeeper came in person, he would definitely offer this price." Yan Feng added, "I wonder if Immortal Friend Xie is also going to Hualuo City this time?"

Xie Yunsui said, "Of course, I'm going to go to the treasures at the auction."

Yan Feng sighed, "That's because our shopkeeper is not destined to be together. I wonder when Xianyou Xie will leave Jinbao City?"

"Just these few days."

"If Xianyou Xie is not in a hurry to leave, I still have a business deal to cooperate with Xianyou Xie..."

Xie Yunsui took back a lot of Moon Spirit Grass, which was the stock of elixirs in the alchemy workshop.

Ling Xiyuan: "What is this?"

Xie Yunsui stroked his forehead and said, "They said we'd split the profits 50-50, so I agreed..."

We had agreed to spend the next two days eating, drinking and shopping, but now we have to "work overtime" again.

The departure date was also postponed.

Ling Xiyuan was also not idle. He visited many food shops these days. Whenever he found something delicious, he would buy a few extra portions and put them in the gourd, and then come back to enjoy them with Xie Yunsui.

After staying in Jinbao City for seven consecutive days, Xie Yunsui completed the cooperation with Danfang. Fearing that they would miss the auction if they delayed any longer, the two decided to leave tomorrow. However, they received a message from Zhu Ming in the evening, asking them to have dinner at Wushuang Restaurant.

"Well, the dishes at this Wushuang Restaurant are considered the best in Jinbao City. Listen to me, it's absolutely right. The spiritual wine here is also good!"

Zhu Ming poured the wine enthusiastically with a look of attentiveness on his face.

Xie Yunsui and Ling Xiyuan sat beside him, looking as if they were waiting to see what else he would say.

Zhu Ming paused and gave an awkward smile: "I sincerely invite you to dinner."

Xie Yunsui asked mischievously, "When we stay in Jinbao City for seven days and are leaving tomorrow?"

Zhu Ming was happy: "That's a coincidence. To be honest, when I sent the message, I was afraid that you had already left."

"What do you want from us?"

"Haha, I also have business to discuss with Brother Xie. The brothers received a message from the sect saying that your space gourd seems to be famous, and many people want to ask for a space gourd. I received the order from the sect and want to order a batch of space gourds from you."

Originally, this could have been mentioned in the voice transmission, but Zhu Ming felt that it was not solemn and it would be better to discuss it in detail in person.

The senior brothers had already set off for Hualuo City. After receiving the news, he rushed back specially to treat them to this dinner.

"How much?"

"About a thousand."

Xie Yun shook his head: "I don't have that much on hand right now, and I still have to go to the auction."

"No rush, I came here to place the order in advance because I was afraid that after you leave for the auction, it would not be my turn to queue up." Zhu Ming said with a smile.

"Good luck to you." Xie Yunsui took out a metal plate and handed it to him. "Whenever you show me this plate, I will give priority to your order."

Zhu Ming took it and looked at it. It was also the first time that Ling Xiyuan saw it, so he couldn't help but look at it sideways.

Zhu Ming didn't understand what it was, but seeing the special pattern on it and hearing him say "priority processing", he smiled and took it and offered him a glass of wine.

"By the way, there's something I wonder if you've heard about?"

"Wanxiang Tower is looking for you. I heard they sent a lot of people in the Foundation Establishment Stage to try to find the person who made the Space Gourd."

"It's a big battle, you have to be careful."
