Chapter 715 Alchemical Products
"That's great, Mom. I'll go to Lingdan Tower now. Only when you get better will we have someone to rely on." Hong Su said excitedly.
However, not long after, he came back dejected.
"Hong Su, what's wrong? Is that kind of elixir very expensive?" Hong Xiang asked. At this time, Hong's mother had returned to the inner room to recuperate, so it was convenient for them to talk to each other.
"Although Bu Tian Zai Zao Dan is an entry-level elixir, it is difficult to refine, and the raw materials are rare and precious. The price of one bottle is one thousand spirit stones, which is equivalent to the price of a mid-level elixir. This is not the most troublesome thing. The trouble is that Lingdan Building is out of stock now. You have to pay half of the deposit first, and you can only get the elixir after fifteen days. We will leave after the Bagua Sect holds its opening ceremony, and we can't wait until then." Hong Su's face was full of worry.
"Then other drug stores don't have it?"
"No, I've been to the three largest pharmacy stores. This medicine is a beginner's medicine, and the price is very high. Usually no one is interested in it, so pharmacy stores usually don't have it in stock."
"Do you think that woman knew that these two kinds of elixirs were out of stock and brought it up on purpose in order to force us to buy the elixirs from her at a high price?" Hongxiang frowned and speculated.
"No, these two kinds of elixirs are indeed very beneficial to our mother's current situation. There is really no other way. Let's exchange the blueprint of the puppet bird for the elixirs. It happens that after reserving the cost of taking the flying boat, we don't have many spirit stones left." Hong Su had already thought of a countermeasure on the way back.
Rong Xianxian and Ning Qingyun returned to the inn. They set up an isolation formation and entered the foggy space.
Ning Qingyun couldn't wait to install the puppet core he repaired on the base of the Tianyu Crystal House's installation core. Rong Xianxian threw eight spirit stones into the eight ports connected to the house under the core. With a "hum", after the spiritual energy was injected into the Tianyu crystal, the originally exquisite three-story building instantly expanded and extended directly from the location beside the creek to the vicinity of the medicine garden.
The main body of the three-story building is made entirely of Tianyu crystal. The clear and pure crystal glows under the influence of spiritual energy and looks magnificent. Before it was expanded, the building was exquisite and cute. After it was expanded, it was nine meters high. The crystal building, which has expanded its area dozens of times, looks simple and elegant.
"This can't be considered a puppet. It seems to be a product of alchemy!" Rong Xianxian and Ning Qingyun communicated.
The book "War Puppet Record" in Ning Qingyun's hand is specially for making puppets, but the items sold in this shop are obviously not the kind of puppets she understands. The only difference is that they both need to be installed with a puppet core to activate it. In fact, the puppet core is like a universal converter that can guide the spiritual energy in the spirit stone and convert it into the energy needed by the puppet.
"That's right, alchemy should be considered a branch of weapon refining. There are many restrictions on the use of spiritual weapons, and they also need to consume the user's own spiritual energy. Small spiritual weapons are okay, but for spiritual weapons like large flying boats, no matter how much spiritual energy the cultivator has in his body, he cannot afford to consume it. Moreover, weapon refiners with weapon refining talent are very rare. The larger the spiritual weapon and magic weapon, the more difficult it is to refine. Later, a genius weapon refiner discovered the material of puppet heart, and used this material to make the puppet core, thus opening up another direction for the weapon refining industry." The preface of "War Puppet Record" in Ning Qingyun's hand introduced this history.
"The core technology of the alchemy industry is the production of puppet cores, which has always been monopolized by the sect of the genius weapon refiner. The "War Puppet Record" happens to contain the method of producing puppet cores." Ning Qingyun said to Rong Xianxian.
The production of a puppet core requires a lot of knowledge of formations. If Ning Qingyun was not a talented formation master, he would not be able to understand it even if he got the method of making a puppet core.
The advantage of alchemical products is that they can be used without consuming one's own spiritual energy. The disadvantage is that they are not as easy to control as spiritual tools, which are flexible and convenient.
Therefore, few people use alchemical weapons. Most alchemical products are made into various tools, such as flying boats for transporting people, large-scale city defense equipment, puppet birds for gathering information or delivering letters, and so on.
Rong Xianxian and Ning Qingyun walked into the crystal building. The crystal building was divided into three floors and was empty inside. On the walls where eight directions of the building intersected, light symbols were flowing, and lines that formed special patterns were faintly visible.
Taking the instruction manual of the Tianyu Crystal House given by Hongxiang, Rong Xianxian found the room directly connected to the puppet core in the middle of the second floor. The walls of this room were covered with floating patterns, and in the center of the east and west walls there were two lotus flowers protruding from the walls, one red and one white. According to the instructions, pressing the white lotus can activate the concealment array inside the Tianyu Crystal House, and pressing the red lotus can activate the spirit gathering array that comes with the Tianyu Crystal House.
The material of Tianyu crystal originally has the function of gathering spirits. When this small building was built, a spirit gathering array was specially built. Rong Xianxian wanted to try out the spirit gathering effect of this small building.
Her hand had already pressed on the red lotus, but suddenly stopped. She suddenly remembered that the Tianyu Crystal House was currently placed right next to the medicine garden. If the magic circle was activated, would it have any impact on the spiritual medicines in the medicine garden?
The thought came to her mind, and she talked with Ning Qingyun. Ning Qingyun went downstairs and left through the main door. At this time, Rong Xianxian pressed the white lotus button on the other wall. About two or three minutes later, with a "swish", the floating lines on the wall all turned white, and the color of the wall became transparent.
Rong Xianxian walked out of the room and found that the outer walls had all turned transparent. Through the transparent walls, she could see the scenery around the house. At the same time, she also saw Ning Qingyun standing outside the small building and looking around.
"Qingyun, can you hear me?" Rong Xianxian shouted.
Ning Qingyun obviously heard Rong Xianxian's shout. He looked up and smiled in her direction. "I can hear it, but I can't see it. It's like this little building is invisible."
"Wait a minute, I'll go turn off the magic circle!" Rong Xianxian said to Ning Qingyun.
"Wait, Xianxian, can I try to find the entrance?" Ning Qingyun wanted to check if there was any way to crack this concealment magic circle. If it was easily cracked, it would not be very safe, and he had to find a way to reinforce it.
"Okay." Rong Xianxian knew what Ning Qingyun meant, so she stood on the second floor and watched Ning Qingyun walking and deducing, looking for the entrance. Rong Xianxian saw him pass by the gate several times and was about to call him, but saw Ning Qingyun slip and fall to the ground, holding his head with his hands and curled up.
"Qingyun!" Rong Xianxian turned over, jumped to the first floor, and rushed out like an arrow.
