Chapter 31
After leaving the Qingdan League, Li Yi went to several big stores, but the prices and varieties of elixirs were similar and very expensive. Although Li Yi had some spirit stones, he didn't want to waste them in these places. He planned to use the spirit stones to buy some secrets of alchemy, and then learn to make alchemy himself. Moreover, he also had a small cauldron space and cyan liquid that could quickly cultivate elixirs.
After visiting several large stores in a row, Li Yi got a lot of understanding of the prices of items here. Although the items here are good, the prices are very expensive.
In order to save some spiritual stones, he also went to the free market several times, but the quality of the things there could not be guaranteed, and the information on alchemy was also uneven. He knew almost nothing about alchemy, so he did not dare to go there. When shopping, if you buy a fake alchemy secret book and study by yourself with no one to ask for advice, you will definitely not be able to refine the elixir no matter what.
So after gritting his teeth, Li Yi came to the center of the city. In front of the most conspicuous building and the largest shop in Juxian City, Wanbao Building, he decided to make a big hemorrhage and buy all the alchemy materials and secrets here.
Looking at the magnificent Wanbao Tower, Li Yi walked in.
At this time, before the waiter in the store could speak, he said directly: "I want to buy some basic alchemy secrets and some alchemy materials."
After hearing what Li Yi said, everyone around him looked at him in surprise, but then they shook their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.
After Li Yi finished speaking, a fat man with a smile walked towards Li Yi and said to him: "Go down! I will receive this fellow Taoist." This man kept looking at Li Yi up and down.
The young man saluted the fat middle-aged man and left.
"I am Sun Xiang, the steward from the first to the third floor here. May I ask your surname, and what alchemy secrets do you plan to buy?"
"I want a very detailed book on basic alchemy," Li Yi said.
After listening to Li Yi's words, Sun Xiang smiled slightly and said: "Okay, I understand. Fellow Taoist is planning to learn alchemy by himself, right? Fellow Taoist came to our Wanbao Tower. That's the right place. In Juxian City, our Wanbao Tower "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia" is the best introductory book. It was summarized and written by Master Yao, our master of alchemy in Wanbao Tower. It is definitely a good thing. You must know that Master Yao is a third-level alchemy master!"
After hearing his words, Li Yi felt happy. A third-grade alchemist was an alchemist who could refine elixirs for monks in the foundation-building period. The pills Li Yi usually took were only first-grade elixirs.
"What fellow Taoist needs is on the third floor. Please come with me." After saying that, he took Li Yi to the third floor, found a room, and sat down.
Then, a beautifully packaged and antique book was placed in front of Li Yi, with "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia" written on it.
With that said, Li Yi picked up the book and started to read it. Sun Xiang on the side just glanced at it, smiled slightly, and didn't say anything. He picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip gently, and stood quietly aside. Waiting quietly.
Li Yi opened the "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia" and read it with gusto. This book explained alchemy in an easy-to-understand manner, allowing Li Yi to clearly understand what alchemy is about, as well as what is the difference between the alchemy of immortal cultivators and the alchemy of mortals. The differences are explained very clearly, as well as some basic alchemy knowledge. This is better than the several classics Li Yi has read before. Just when Li Yi wanted to continue reading, the following content suddenly became invisible. Li Yi thought, this is the other party's little trick.
So he said, "Deacon Sun, I wonder how many spiritual stones are needed for this "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia"?"
"This "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia" in our store requires 400 to 400 low-grade spiritual stones. I am a child, so I refuse to bargain." Sun Xiang said with a smile, and also cut off Li Yi's way of bargaining.
Li Yi frowned and said, "This is a bit expensive. Are there any other classics?"
"Hey, fellow Taoist Li Yi, although this basic alchemy encyclopedia is a bit expensive, the records are very detailed! It is the best introductory book on alchemy, and it also has three basic alchemy recipes as gifts, namely the Juyuan Dan and the Shen Ling Dan. , and Zhiyuan Dan, fellow Taoist must have been to the Qingdan League! You also know the prices of these pills. As long as you learn this alchemy technique, you will definitely have a lot of spiritual stones. If you buy this, "Basic Alchemy Encyclopedia", as long as you study it carefully, you can definitely make elixirs. If you buy other alchemy books, you have to buy the elixir formula separately. "Sun Xiang was on the side, introducing it nonstop. This classic was almost blown to the sky.
After listening to Sun Xiang's words, Li Yi also felt that it made sense. Even if he didn't buy this book, he would still have to buy it elsewhere. It would be a waste of time. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I bought it."
"Okay, fellow Taoist, feel free."
Sun Xiang felt happy. With this deal concluded, he could earn a lot of spiritual stones. Although the young man in front of him looked ordinary, he was worth a lot of money.
"I don't think Fellow Daoist Li has ever refined elixirs before! I have some other things that fellow Daoists may also need, such as an alchemy furnace. To make elixirs, you need an alchemy furnace at the level of a spiritual weapon. We have low-level and mid-level ones in Wanbao Tower. , there are alchemy furnaces at the high-end spiritual weapon level.”
"There is no need for the alchemy furnace. Fellow Taoist, do you have some fresh herbs here, as well as books on the identification of elixirs and cultivation methods?" Li Yi asked again.
"Fellow Daoist wants fresh spiritual medicine, which makes it difficult for me. The spiritual medicines needed for alchemy in Wanbao Tower are all collected in the Tianyun Mountains. It takes several months to collect herbs in the mountains each time, and they are all dried herbs. Only some high-level spiritual medicines will be specially preserved. As for the classics such as the introduction and cultivation of spiritual medicines, we also have them here. This "Basic Spiritual Medicine Atlas" not only has the medicinal properties of basic spiritual medicines, but also has spiritual medicine atlases, and the cultivation techniques of spiritual medicines are also recorded in it."
After saying that, he asked someone to take out a thick color book. Li Yi simply flipped through it. There were actually detailed records of hundreds of spiritual medicines in it, even the blue spiritual grass that Li Yi had obtained before was recorded. Li Yi was very satisfied with this book.
"I don't know, how many spiritual stones does this book cost?" Li Yi asked.
"This is cheap, only one hundred low-grade spirit stones."
"Okay, I'll take it."
"I see that you are in the Qi Refining Stage. If you want to refine the elixir, ordinary mortal fire will not work. We have flint for sale. Do you want to buy some?" Sun Xiang introduced.
