Chapter 354 Distinguished Guests
Half a month later, Long Xuan finally returned to the familiar city of sin.
He did not return to Master Song's insect armor shop immediately, but disguised himself as Master Wei and returned to Master Wei's elixir shop.
As soon as he walked into the store, a child came out to greet him.
"Master, you are finally back. There are many orders placed by customers in the store, which are urgently needed by the master."
Long Xuan looked at the little boy, and seeing his appearance, he knew that he didn't know the news of Master Wei's death.
Having been neighbors with Master Wei for such a long time, he still knows many things about Master Wei. Master Wei has more than fifty medicine boys.
These medicine boys are all his coolies, and most of the low-grade elixirs sold in the store are made by these medicine boys.
And this kid is one of the more than fifty medicine boys, and he is the medicine boy with the best alchemy talent in Master Wei's hands.
Many of the second-grade elixirs in the store were made by this medicine boy, who was highly regarded by Master Wei.
But in this case, these people around Master Wei must know Master Wei very well, and they may recognize him as a fake.
Long Xuan's eyes suddenly narrowed, and murderous intent arose in his heart, but the murderous intent quickly dissipated. It would be a pity to kill so many coolies, so it would be better to keep them to work for him.
This group of low-level Gu cultivators did not pose any threat to him, even if they found out his identity. Later, he only needs to separate fifty souls to possess these fifty medicine boys. He can monitor them all the time and take their lives with just a thought.
"I will deal with the accumulated orders later. I have another opportunity during this trip, and I have obtained a lot of elixirs. You are responsible for getting rid of these elixirs as soon as possible."
"I'm going to retreat upstairs. Unless there's something big, don't disturb me."
With that said, Long Xuan placed eighty bottles of Chong Wang Dan on the counter, and then walked upstairs.
Too much talk leads to mistakes. The more you talk to this drug boy, the greater the risk of exposure, so he only said one sentence and went upstairs as quickly as possible.
The medicine boy did not have any doubts about Master Wei's identity for the time being. He looked at the eighty King Chong Pills on the counter with a look of surprise in his eyes.
As an alchemist, how could he not know the value of eighty King Chong Pills.
Once all eighty Chongwang Pills are sold, it will be a huge fortune.
Did Master Wei secretly kill a genius alchemist during his outing? The medicine boy couldn't help but think to himself at this moment.
…
After returning upstairs, Long Xuan walked into the space inside the body of the Sky-Swallowing World Toad and officially entered the retreat life.
The business downstairs can be handled by the drug boy. In order to avoid increasing the risk of exposure, he decided not to show up for a short time.
At the same time, Master Song's Chongjia store across from Master Wei's elixir shop also reopened. Long Xuan opened two stores at the same time, and both stores were prospering and making money.
Next, while he was studying the Blood Lotus Pill formula in seclusion, he used these two stores to quickly collect the materials for the formula for him.
Before you know it, half a year has passed.
In a small pavilion on the main island, Long Xuan looked at the pill prescription in his hand, showing satisfaction, and then stretched out greatly.
"The research on the exclusive three-hundred-year-old longevity elixir of the coir raincoat has finally been successful. After the coir raincoat has completed its transformation by swallowing this elixir, it can almost be teleported with the spiritual sea stage Gu cultivator."
Long Xuan smiled and slowly signed the elixir recipe and put it into a small box.
This three-hundred-year-old longevity elixir specially borrowed from Master Sun’s three-hundred-year longevity elixir.
He got a lot of inspiration from this elixir. He found answers to many of the questions that had stumped him in the past. So when he studied this elixir, he had great success without any glitches. After spending two months, he Finally, he finally succeeded in his research.
The three-hundred-year longevity elixir recipe was found from Master Sun, so there is naturally a lot of information about this elixir in Master Sun's storage ring.
Because of the reference relationship. The exclusive elixir recipe created by Long Xuan was very similar to this elixir recipe, so he didn't need to bother looking for most of the materials.
Including the most difficult main ingredient of the Shou Yuan Dan to be collected, Master Sun also has it in his storage ring, so there is no need for him to collect it at all.
The remaining materials are not of high rarity. It doesn't take much time for him to collect all the materials on this elixir recipe, but it does give him peace of mind.
At this point, the problem of the transformation of the coir rain has been solved. It is only a matter of time before the coir can be transported with the spiritual sea stage Gu cultivator.
Long Xuan took out another pill recipe from the small box and looked at it attentively.
On the top of this elixir prescription are written the three words "Blood Lotus Pill" in large letters, and below are the three small words "Long Xuanzhu" written in neat handwriting.
He had completed the Blood Lotus Pill two months ago, and he had been collecting the materials for the pill recipe for such a long time.
Since he wrote down the first material for his own Blood Lotus Pill recipe, he has already asked two major stores to collect the materials on the recipe. So far, he has been collecting the materials on the recipe for half a year.
Over such a long period of time, he had already collected all the materials needed for the elixir recipe.
He scanned the materials on the prescription, and then quickly checked the materials that the two major stores had collected for him in the past six months. He soon discovered that the materials on the Blood Lotus prescription were basically complete, except for the missing material. The main material is blood lotus.
Thinking of this blood lotus, Long Xuan had a headache.
The first material he got right was the blood lotus. However, he couldn't find the blood lotus after half a year of collecting, which shows how difficult it is to collect.
Blood Lotus is a rare elixir that can only be born if a certain place is infected with the blood of high-level spiritual beasts.
There are blood lotus from fifth to twelfth grade, but there is no blood lotus below fourth grade.
This made his head grow bigger. Due to the thin spiritual power of heaven and earth, elixirs of grade five or above did not grow at all in this world. This made him look for blood lotus.
The only place where blood lotus can appear in this world is in the ancient tombs of a very distant era.
In an extremely distant period, when the heaven and earth were full of spiritual power, blood lotuses grew in this world. Once the dead people brought them to the tomb and sealed them permanently, it is possible that they can still be passed down to this day.
But the probability of discovery is too low.
It's not like he hasn't thought about replacing the blood lotus with another material, or creating another elixir with similar effects.
But he soon discovered that it was impossible.
Because the elixir that increases the success rate of swallowing sky fire is so unbelievable, the level of the elixir has far exceeded the fourth level, and the main materials must also exceed the fourth level to refine this type of elixir.
He could only use a large amount of junk materials to degrade it like he had when refining the Heaven-Building Pill, and then he could refine it with his own level.
In other words, the auxiliary ingredients of the heaven-defying elixir can be fooled, but the main ingredients must be of a high level and cannot be spared.
If you want to develop an elixir similar to the Blood Lotus Pill, the main ingredient must be a high-level elixir that is higher than the fourth grade. If you use elixirs below the fifth grade as the main ingredient, it is absolutely impossible to develop such elixirs.
And what's the difference between collecting other elixirs beyond the fourth grade and collecting blood lotus?
Long Xuan could only bite the bullet and collect the blood lotus. Whether he could collect it in the end could only depend on luck. He had no other choice.
However, just when Long Xuan was having a headache about collecting the blood lotus, the black storage ring on his finger trembled. Long Xuan touched the storage ring, and soon he took out a communication talisman.
After seeing the content on the communication talisman, his eyes widened immediately, and he quickly stood up, showing a look of ecstasy.
He had to sigh with emotion, there was really no way he could stop good luck.
This messenger was sent by the medicine boy who was looking after the business below.
He had previously claimed that he would be in seclusion and would not be disturbed, so the medicine boy did not dare to knock on the door, so he used a summons talisman to summon him.
The content on the messenger talisman is that a customer wants to buy the store's treasure.
There is only one sentence on the messenger symbol, very concise.
An ordinary store clerk cannot make the final decision on such a big deal as selling a store-butter. Of course, he has to inform Master Wei who is in retreat upstairs.
After Long Xuan saw this communication talisman, he immediately came out of the space inside the Sky-Swallowing World Toad, and then quickly walked downstairs.
The treasure in his shop is a fire and ice pill. When he was refining the ice and fire pill for Yang Zhan, he made three pills in total.
After giving him one pill and two remaining pills, Long Xuan decided to place one of the Ice and Fire Pills in the store to attract consumers.
The method of trading the Ice and Fire Pills is a blood lotus. Since this person dares to trade the Ice and Fire Pills, he must have found the Blood Lotus. How could Long Xuan not be happy at this time.
…
At this time, in Master Wei's elixir shop, a fat man looked at the elixir bottles on the shelf with burning eyes.
This shelf is made of precious white jade and is flawless. The shelf is protected by a barrier. The elixir bottles placed within the barrier are difficult to take away.
The elixirs placed on such extraordinary shelves are naturally not ordinary objects. The elixirs placed on the shelves with the best materials in the store are naturally the treasures of the store.
The fat man looked at the elixir greedily, breathing a little quickly.
"I can't believe it, I really can't believe that someone can actually refine the elixir of ice and fire. It's really amazing."
"This is one of the few elixirs that can induce strange phenomena. It is notoriously difficult to refine. If you make the slightest mistake, the furnace will explode and the alchemist will be killed. Even a fourth-level alchemist will find it difficult to refine this elixir. The medicine is made."
"How on earth did your shop owner refine this elixir of ice and fire? I'm afraid not many alchemists in the entire Middle-Earth can match this alchemy skill. I didn't expect that a small sinful city would actually have a crouching tiger, hidden dragon."
Facing the fat man's endless chatter to himself, the medicine boy remained silent.
He still doesn’t know what master Wei’s level of alchemy is? There is no way that this Ice and Fire Pill was made by Master Wei.
Thinking that Master Wei had suddenly taken out a bunch of Chongwang Dan that was obviously not made by him, the medicine boy concluded that this ice and fire bipolar pill and the batch of Chongwang Dan were both made by the same person, and were obtained by Master Wei through murder and looting. of.
Long Xuan walked downstairs and saw the fat man who was excitedly circling around the Ice and Fire Pill. It seemed that he was very interested in the Ice and Fire Pill.
"It is written on the shelf that our store only accepts blood lotus for barter. Do you have a blood lotus on you?"
Long Xuan pretended to be calm and asked as soon as he came down the stairs.
"Of course, I, the Cao family, come from a family of tomb robbers. This blood lotus cannot be found anywhere else, except for me, the Cao family."
"Our Cao family obtained this blood lotus from an ancient tomb five hundred years ago, but because there is no elixir for the blood lotus in this world, it has been kept until now."
"I have brought this blood lotus, let's make a deal now!"
Cao Shuang once again looked at the Ice and Fire Pill, looking at it very excitedly. (End of chapter)
