Chapter 1724: Chapter 1724 Special Attributes
Li Yuanyang’s idea was to pay for the prescription and the medicinal materials himself, and then have Ye Liuyun refine the pills for him for free.
The refined pills would naturally all belong to Li Yuanyang. Then, he would give Ye Liuyun an appropriate salary according to the treatment of an alchemist.
This treatment was already considered quite good for a martial practitioner who had just arrived in the God Realm.
He felt that treating Ye Liuyun this way was much better than sending him to the battlefield against the foreign race.
So, as they walked towards the Mystique Mart, Li Yuanyang shared his thoughts with Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun originally thought that Li Yuanyang would ask him to keep half of the refined pills for himself. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
So, when Ye Liuyun heard Li Yuanyang’s proposal, he felt somewhat disappointed.
But having just arrived in the God Realm, he didn’t understand the situation fully, so he could only vaguely agree for the time being, saying that he would first go to the chamber of commerce to assess the situation.
Li Yuanyang also understood Ye Liuyun’s thoughts. So, he planned that when they arrived at the chamber of commerce later, he would let Ye Liuyun see the prices of the prescriptions and medicinal materials himself. He knew that once Ye Liuyun realized he couldn’t afford them, he would naturally yield to him.
With each of them preoccupied with their own thoughts, they arrived at the mystique mart.
As the lord of a city, although his strength was not very strong, he still received a warm reception from the salesperson.
The mystique mart has three levels, but most ordinary transactions take place on the first level. The second level is for trading bulk commodities, while the third level is for VIP rooms.
Li Yuanyang didn’t often make purchases, so he didn’t even have the qualifications to go to the second level. He could only take Ye Liuyun to browse the goods on the first level.
Upon learning that they were interested in seeing the pills, the salesperson immediately led them to the shelves where the pills were sold.
The shelves displayed pills ranging from first-grade, first-rank to third-grade, ninth-rank, and there were many varieties, which made it convenient for Ye Liuyun to understand the grades and classifications of the pills.
After observing for a while, Ye Liuyun suddenly noticed that some of the second and third-grade pills had a faint ring of pill patterns on them.
"What does this ring of pill pattern mean?" Ye Liuyun asked directly.
The salesperson looked at Ye Liuyun with surprise. Before he could respond, Li Yuanyang explained to the salesperson, "He’s an alchemist who just arrived here from the mortal realm and doesn’t understand the situation with the pills in the God Realm."
Li Yuanyang mentioning alchemists caught the attention of a steward inside the hall.
The steward was in the midst of discussing prices with a martial practitioner who exuded a cold aura and had a stern expression.
He was a second-grade alchemist officially authorized by the Alchemist Alliance of the God Realm.
As soon as Li Yuanyang mentioned that Ye Liuyun came from the mortal realm and was an alchemist, he sneered, "Don’t let yourself be fooled by people from the mortal realm! If you don’t even understand what pill patterns are, how dare you call yourself an alchemist?"
The mystique mart was also a force to be reckoned with, and if the alchemist didn’t actively engage with Li Yuanyang, he wouldn’t even dare to disturb him either.
Ye Liuyun’s Divine Sense could see everything on the surface level, and naturally, Li Yuanyang could too.
Li Yuanyang, seeing the alchemist initiate a conversation with him, immediately greeted him with a respectful gesture, showing deference and flattery in his manner, which was evident in his words.
Even the salesperson stood respectfully on the side, not daring to speak.
A second-grade alchemist was already the highest level of alchemist in Tundraland, so one can imagine their status.
"Mr. Liu, this is a new alchemist recruited by our city lord’s mansion. Although he comes from the mortal realm, his skills are much stronger than those of the alchemists I had found before," Li Yuanyang quickly explained to Mr. Liu.
"Oh?" Mr. Liu raised an eyebrow, clearly not entirely convinced.
"Alchemists from the mortal realm often don’t even understand the basics of alchemy. They might know a bit about fire elemental power and dare to pass themselves off as alchemists. Mr. Li, you should be more cautious!"
As he spoke, he looked down at Ye Liuyun with a contemptuous gaze.
He had encountered many alchemists from the mortal realm, all of whom had only a bit of fire elemental power and didn’t understand alchemy very well.
Just because alchemists were popular, these people, in order to survive, falsely claimed to be alchemists. Relying on their fire elemental power, they could barely refine some basic pills to make a living.
Li Yuanyang didn’t know how to explain, so he immediately took out the first-grade, sixth-rank Qi Refining Pill that Ye Liuyun had refined yesterday and showed it to Mr. Liu.
"You see, this kid is a bit different from other alchemists. He does have some real skills! He just arrived in the God Realm not long ago, and this is his first time refining pills. I personally witnessed it!" Li Yuanyang explained.
Mr. Liu took the pill from Li Yuanyang’s hand, examined it, and then slowly said, "Hmm, not bad. Although it’s just a first-grade pill, it’s indeed better than those ordinary ones."
An alchemist from the mortal realm who could refine a first-grade, sixth-rank pill shortly after arriving in the God Realm at least proved that Ye Liuyun wasn’t a fraud.
However, it was just a first-grade Qi Refining Pill. There’s no need for Mr. Liu to regard Ye Liuyun highly.
Ye Liuyun didn’t bother with such arrogant individuals.
"Just a second-grade alchemist, yet so arrogant? Once I reach the second realm, I can easily crush you!" Ye Liuyun thought disdainfully of such pretentious alchemists.
The elder beside the alchemist, emanating a chilling aura, observed Ye Liuyun, stroking his beard as if pondering something.
Li Yuanyang, seeing that Mr. Liu acknowledged Ye Liuyun’s pill, felt even happier.
He said to Mr. Liu, "I brought him here today to let him broaden his horizons and also to buy some pill recipes so that he can go back and refine pills."
"Very well," Mr. Liu nodded pretentiously, unable to say much more, as Ye Liuyun did indeed seem to be adept at alchemy.
It seems Mr. Liu intended to undermine Ye Liuyun’s confidence by showing off his knowledge in alchemy, but it didn’t quite work out as planned.
It sounds like Mr. Liu’s vanity wasn’t satisfied, so he didn’t exactly have a pleasant expression. He returned the pills to Li Yuanyang and resumed chatting with the old man, leaving Li Yuanyang aside.
Li Yuanyang chuckled awkwardly a few times before stepping back to join Ye Liuyun and the salesperson. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
The salesperson then continued to explain to Ye Liuyun, "These pill patterns are created by infusing special sources of power during the refining process, which imbues the pill with certain attributes. When consumed by martial practitioners, they also absorb the corresponding source of power, amplifying the medicinal effects."
Ye Liuyun nodded and pointed to a pill with a faint white pill pattern around it, asking, "Is this a pill with the attribute of ice and cold?"
The salesperson nodded, looking somewhat curiously at Ye Liuyun.
As without the Power of Ice, he shouldn’t be able to discern the properties of that pill.
In fact, Ye Liuyun’s Golden Phantom Eyes could perceive all the attributes of the pill patterns here, regardless of whether he possessed that specific attribute power or not.
"This one is of the Fire attribute... and this one carries Devil Qi? Is it intended for devil cultivators?" Ye Liuyun immediately inquired upon seeing a pill with Devil Qi.
Though somewhat surprised that Ye Liuyun could discern so many attributes, the salesperson still replied, "Yes, there are quite a few devil cultivators in the God Realm too!"
Ye Liuyun nodded, feeling relieved. In future battles, even if his Devil Qi were to be exposed, it wouldn’t cause too much astonishment among the people of the God Realm.
