Chapter 250: Vision and Harvest (3)
The inventory of the trading houses affiliated with the six major alliances was not the inventory of ordinary shops. Luo Xuanyi still remembered the herbs and monster talismans she had taken from the ghost market last time. At that time, it seemed like a rich harvest, but now, in comparison, it seemed extremely shabby.
Luo Xuanyi stood on a hillside, looking around. She had just dumped all the goods from a trading house, and the flat ground in the peach blossom forest was no longer suitable for standing. She simply stood on the hillside to see if eight trading houses could cover the entire area of forest and grassland. Unexpectedly, there were more than enough.
Looking out, countless precious gems glittered beneath the scattered peach blossoms. The entire peach forest was illuminated from below, so brightly that even light and shadow became blurred, like a huge gem set in the earth.
Just looking at it made her feel extremely relaxed. Luo Xuanyi admired it for a while, then finally went down the mountain and began to count them one by one.
Trading houses generally don't stock basic or cheap goods in their warehouses. Materials collected from places like Guhu Town are large and cheap, so they're usually traded as soon as they arrive. Therefore, the materials Luo Xuanyi was able to find in this treasure trove were all rare treasures.
In addition to rare materials, there are also formation plates, magic tools, elixirs, etc. Judging from the list submitted by the trading house, there are eleven major categories, all of which are exquisite and rare.
But they were all packed in boxes, and it was difficult to tell what was inside without breaking the restriction, so Luo Xuanyi had to open them one by one.
At first, she couldn't control the force she used to break the restriction, sometimes shattering the box and nearly harming the spirit within. After opening it four or five times, she finally gained control of the force.
Luo Xuanyi was pleasantly surprised by what she found. Among the ingredients alone were a tail feather from an eighth-grade phoenix cub, a seventh-grade thousand-year-old phantom plum blossom with three blossoms, and ghost coral transformed from a green ghost... Each one was a valuable ingredient that could be used as a main ingredient for refining equipment. As long as they identified their properties and incorporated them into the formation flag, they would undoubtedly strengthen it.
Compared to the scarcity of natural treasures, the magical instruments that cultivators could refine were even more plentiful. There were over two hundred instruments here, and Luo Xuanyi began to pick them out as she reached the back. She singled out seventeen instruments with the special markings of the master refiner.
These seventeen magical instruments are all of the second-level top-grade immortal grade in the three realms of weapon refining. In terms of grade alone, they are even higher than Huo Pu.
Luo Xuanyi immediately picked up a dagger with great interest, but she was soon disappointed. The magical weapons refined by the six major alliances were too "righteous." The dagger in Luo Xuanyi's hand was indeed made of exquisite materials, but that was where its advantages ended.
She flicked her finger and the dagger flew straight through the peach tree, leaving an almost invisible cut. The dagger flew back into her hand, and the peach tree slowly fell.
It takes almost no effort to operate, but it's pretty useless.
She casually dropped the dagger and picked up a string of beads wrapped in blue lightning. Once infused with death energy, the beads suddenly floated in the air and spread out, surrounding the peach tree designated by Luo Xuanyi, and bursts of blue lightning erupted.
It was loud and looked powerful, but a frontal attack was not Luo Xuanyi's first choice.
Looking at the magical weapons scattered across the floor, Luo Xuanyi couldn't help but feel a headache. She thought back to all the cultivators from the six major alliances she had met, and after careful consideration, she realized that their magical weapons were indeed like this - single-purpose and not particularly insidious.
The magic weapons of the six alliances are barriers if they are said to be barriers, and attacks if they are said to be attacks. Basically, you can figure out the rules of their operation after the first strike.
Luo Xuanyi, on the other hand, preferred the Zang Yao Sect's style, or rather, the magical instruments of the Demonic Cultivation style. Like the Ink-Splashed Jade Bamboo Flag she initially used, the Main Flag she later refined, the Bewitching Servant refined by Jiang Zhibin, and the Demonic Blade Killing Dao she obtained from Hao Fei, all of these, in addition to direct confrontation with the enemy, also employed other hidden techniques, such as blood-sucking to restore spiritual power, poisonous gas, pollution, and direct slashing attacks, making them impossible to defend against.
Despite her disdain, these magical instruments were indeed of excellent quality. Luo Xuanyi didn't bother to distinguish between masterpieces and reluctantly took the 200 magical instruments into her collection.
Just as she was muttering in her heart, the next jade box that was opened immediately blew away her complaints.
What is packaged in this box is an array disk!
Since reading the memories of the formation cultivators, Luo Xuanyi had often seen them observing and learning with formation plates, but she had never seen it with her own eyes. The rarity of formation plates was probably comparable to that of phoenix feathers.
She carefully placed the formation disk in her hand. It was about the size of her palm. It was shaped like a square brick split from the side, thick and solid, and was actually made of stone.
The upper front side is polished smooth, with twenty-four fake stars made of cinnabar dots distributed on it. Under the fake stars, a flying catkin-shaped beast is outlined with copper powder and bluestone powder. It is none other than the formation celestial beast Xiyan.
The four sides were engraved with numerous strange characters, sometimes intersecting, sometimes parallel. Luo Xuanyi had never seen them before. The more she examined these characters, the more profound they became, as if they formed a system of their own. Luo Xuanyi almost immersed herself in studying them, but there were other things she hadn't yet reviewed, so she reluctantly returned the array disk to the jade box and tucked it into her waist.
Among the eight trading houses' inventories, there was only this one formation plate. Luo Xuanyi sighed regretfully and turned to inventory the other treasures.
She had collected over a hundred bottles of various types and grades of pills, but most of them were pills Luo Xuanyi could refine herself. There were only two pills she took a closer look at: a seventh-grade Wanli Pill and an eighth-grade Dingrong Pill.
The Wanli Pill is similar to the Shenxing Talisman, allowing one to teleport thousands of miles instantly upon taking it. It's truly a precious elixir for avoiding disasters and escaping danger. Its operating principles mirror those of the Taixu Celestial Beast, rather than relying on medicinal catalysis to catalyze the human body. Therefore, even Luo Xuanyi, currently a Gui Cultivator, can still take it and see results.
Luo Xuanyi could only refine a sixth-grade pill using her flesh-body medicine furnace, and without the spiritual herbs needed to refine the Wanli Pill, she couldn't do it. While she possessed a chess-crossing beast that could travel anywhere regardless of distance, it had a limited number of uses, and she didn't want to waste them. The Divine Travel Talisman and the Wanli Pill were obvious alternatives.
If she had Wanli Pills in her last battle with Yunpo, she wouldn't have had to run back to Longlan City to set up a trap to get rid of Yunpo. Therefore, she happily accepted the pill.
She had kept the eighth-grade Dingrong Pill out of instinctive curiosity. She had long heard of its fame; it was often mentioned in Taoist Hua Shen's collection of Xuancheng Prefecture's scenery and various biographies, often given between cultivators as tokens of love. But strangely, Taoist Hua Shen, a medicine fanatic, hadn't included a recipe for the Dingrong Pill.
After all, it was an eighth-grade elixir, developed by the Black Wood Sect cultivators of the Six Great Alliances, something the Zang Yao Sect didn't possess. While it was supposed to be for beauty and nourishment, there had to be something else that made it so special. She stuffed the Beauty Pill into her body, carefully analyzing it, and pursed her lips.
Dingrong Pill is really a pill for beautifying the face and maintaining beauty.
Luo Xuanyi roughly analyzed that one Volume-Fixing Pill required at least three seventh-grade spiritual herbs, with sixteen or seventeen sixth-grade spiritual herbs as supplementary ingredients. So many resources, and yet, they were truly just for beauty.
The six alliance members are really idle. Luo Xuanyi was too lazy to continue analyzing. She took out the half-melted Dingrong Pill from her body, looked at its original value of 2,000 spirit coins, smacked her lips, and put it back into the jade bottle.
The further she drove, the more picky she felt. Other talismans and elixir fires of some value didn't attract her special attention, so she sorted them all out and put them away.
By the time eighty to ninety percent of the boxes on the ground had been cleared, it was already late at night and dawn was approaching in Taoyuan Realm. Luo Xuanyi casually picked up another wooden box.
