Free Web NovelChapter 641: Chapter 354: Blade-Proof! Alchemy Prodigy! (2)
After his ascension, he didn’t know any alchemist.
Although, in the Upper Realm, the impurities contained in celestial herbs are very few.
There is basically no need to purify them using alchemy techniques.
However, the taste of celestial herbs is not good.
Chewing celestial herbs is far less convenient than swallowing elixirs.
Moreover, some elixir recipes combine celestial herbs to achieve better effects.
Su Que, feeling bored and wanting to find an alchemist, planned to meet with the alchemist.
Su Que activated the Nine-Turn Celestial Demon Technique, waved his hand, and released a mana strike towards the door of the stone chamber.
With a rumbling sound, the door of the stone chamber opened, and Su Que walked out.
As he walked out, Su Que recalled the elixir explosion that occurred a few days ago and became skeptical of the alchemist’s skills.
Su Que walked into the courtyard, and as he approached the mansion’s gate, he waved his hand again.
The fluctuation of mana rippled towards the gate.
The gate opened inward.
Revealing a man with neatly tied hair, a jade hairpin tucked into his topknot, looking about thirty years old, with a rather handsome face.
Su Que recognized that this was indeed the alchemist who caused the elixir explosion, his neighbor.
However, on the day of the explosion, the alchemist’s face was entirely blackened and his hair exploded, looking quite comical.
Seeing Su Que approaching, the man smiled and bowed to Su Que:
"My friend, I am surnamed Lin, with the given name ’Dong’."
"The other day’s elixir explosion disturbed you; today I come with a gift in apology."
As he spoke, his eyes slightly curved, a slight smile on his lips, presenting a vague smile.
He brushed his hand across the storage bag at his waist and took out a white porcelain bottle.
He handed this porcelain bottle to Su Que and laughed, "My friend, this is a ’Divine Power Pill’ crafted from forty-nine rare medicinal ingredients."
"The elixir explosion incident shouldn’t trouble you, there’s no need for this."
Su Que spoke politely but accepted Lin Dong’s elixir with his hand and asked:
"May I know what effect this elixir has?"
"Hehe!"
Upon hearing Su Que’s question, Lin Dong’s vague smile grew even stronger.
He leaned in a bit and whispered, "After consuming my elixir, even at ’Spring Breeze Tower’ in the city, you can withstand the demonesses’ Absorbing Yang to Supplement Yin technique without losing any Primordial Yang, even if staying all night won’t tire you!"
Su Que paused slightly after hearing this.
Seeing Su Que’s expression, Lin Dong raised an eyebrow, cupped his fists again to bid farewell to Su Que, and went to visit another household.
’So, he’s an unserious alchemist.’
Su Que thought as he closed the mansion’s gate.
He turned back towards the stone chamber, glancing at the white porcelain bottle in his hand.
’This elixir is useless to me.’
Intending to let it gather dust in the storage bag, Su Que uncorked the white porcelain bottle and looked inside.
Inside was an azure blue elixir with five ripple-like patterns on it.
’Five-Stripe Elixir!’
From the memories of some cultivators, Su Que knew the elixir grades in the Upper Realm were nine stripes.
The more stripes, the better the quality of the elixir.
This mere unserious elixir already had five stripes.
Indicating the alchemist’s level might not be just this.
’This Five-Stripe Elixir should fetch a decent price.’
Su Que thought in his heart, planning to sell this Divine Power Pill at the Celestial Treasure Pavilion someday.
Additionally, to see if the poison at Celestial Treasure Pavilion had arrived.
...
Celestial Treasure Pavilion.
The server in Celestial Treasure Pavilion who poured tea and ran errands for customers had been replaced.
The steward Guan Ji of Celestial Treasure Pavilion didn’t know what had happened to the previous server.
He merely reported the matter to the higher-ups at Celestial Treasure Pavilion.
Then, the higher-ups notified the Celestial Sect.
The Celestial Sect sent someone else down and had the guards in Xianming City search for the missing server.
After several days of searching, there was no result.
However, since the server was not an important person, even being missing, the Celestial Sect’s members did not take it to heart.
The newly replaced server at Celestial Treasure Pavilion was just as nimble as the previous one.
Su Que sat down under the new server’s hospitality.
While sipping spirit tea, waiting for the arrival of steward Guan Ji.
After Guan Ji arrived, Su Que told him he wanted to sell the Divine Power Pill.
The server notified Guan Ji, and then Guan Ji informed one of Celestial Treasure Pavilion’s higher-ups, Yu Yue.
Yu Yue, situated on the third floor, unleashed her spiritual power, eavesdropping on the conversation between Guan Ji and Su Que.
When she heard about the use of the Divine Power Pill, her fair cheeks couldn’t help but turn red.
However, being a cultivator at the late stage of the Merging Realm, she could control her qi blood.
With a thought, the blush faded from her face.
"Is the guest perhaps an alchemist?"
Guan Ji suddenly, seeing Su Que taking out such an elixir for sale, asked.
"No, this elixir was a gift from a friend, but I don’t need it." Su Que replied truthfully.
’I can use this.’
Guan Ji thought to himself, then offered Su Que a price.
Su Que didn’t expect that a single Divine Power Pill would fetch a price comparable to a healing pill of the same level.
"Deal," Su Que responded immediately.
Subsequently, Guan Ji gave a look to the server.
The server understood, immediately went upstairs, retrieved Celestial Gate Gold Coins, and handed them to Su Que with both hands.
After accepting, Su Que intended to leave. Guan Ji said, "Sir, our Celestial Treasure Pavilion higher-ups would still like to ask if you’re interested in acquiring resources."
"Sorry, still not interested," Su Que replied, then stood up to leave Celestial Treasure Pavilion.
...
As Su Que was walking back to his mansion, he passed by Lin Dong’s mansion.
He was considering whether to visit this alchemist.
To see how skilled this person is in crafting serious elixirs.
However, he thought about how his celestial herbs were seized from various cultivators, accumulating many.
He currently wasn’t familiar with Lin Dong.
If he kept taking out celestial herbs for Lin Dong to refine elixirs for him,
if Lin Dong asked, he would find it difficult to explain how he obtained all those celestial herbs.
Su Que thought of this, then decided against it and continued towards his mansion.
After returning to his mansion, Su Que went to the stone chamber, intending to continue cultivating the Exotic Golden Bell Shield.
In no time, the clanging sounds resonated from within the stone chamber again.
...
Exotic Golden Bell Shield (Perfection) [Upper Level Mortal Technique]
With Su Que’s persistent cultivation, the Exotic Golden Bell Shield finally reached perfection.
He immediately focused his gaze on the Attribute Panel.
In no time, his gaze rested on the Circulation of the Six Void Skill.
Circulation of the Six Void Skill (10th Realm Shocking the Ancients 2%) [Middle Level Desperate Technique]
This cultivation technique, though currently at a low realm, was ready to be upgraded.
Su Que took out three bottles of elixir and two ginseng-like celestial herbs from the storage bag.
First, he uncorked the bottles and poured the elixirs into his mouth.
As soon as the elixirs entered his mouth, they liquefied, flowing into his throat.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, ingesting the liquid medicine.
Then, he put the two ginseng-like celestial herbs to his mouth and chewed them.
In no time, he ate both celestial herbs.
The medicinal power of the elixirs and celestial herbs quickly spread in his stomach.
Waves of heat spread throughout his limbs and bones.
Subsequently, Su Que took out the Snow Mountain Treasure from the storage bag.
Immediately, a white miniature mountain floated in front of him.
The white light instantly illuminated the pitch-black stone chamber.
The Divine Treasure Mountain emitted waves of ripples, spreading to the surroundings, bouncing back off the stone chamber’s walls.
Su Que observed the stone walls’ isolating effect on the treasure’s waves, knowing his rental money was well spent.
If the treasure waves were aimed at ordinary cultivators, it would suppress their cultivation.
But for those who practice with Karmic Force, it increases their cultivation speed.
Su Que’s Nine-Turn Celestial Demon Technique required the consumption of Karmic Force, so he was one who practiced with Karmic Force.
After summoning the Divine Treasure Mountain, Su Que began cultivating the Circulation of the Six Void Skill.
Eight-Colored True Qi was born within his body, circulating through his meridians according to the Circulation of the Six Void Skill.
A natural aura emanated from his body.
