You know, this "Obstacle Breaking Pill" is amazing. It is one of the best pills to break bottlenecks during the Qi refining period. After a monk takes it, it can increase the chance of breakthrough by 40%, and most importantly, after the breakthrough, , and there won’t be any side effects.
Therefore, after hearing the news, Han Changlin made up his mind to participate in this underground auction.
However, this elixir is the final item of this underground auction after all. It can be said that a considerable number of monks at the venue are here for this purpose.
Therefore, the price of this barrier-breaking pill must be quite high.
Currently, Han Changlin has less than eight hundred low-grade spiritual stones in his storage bag. Therefore, if he wants to get this barrier-breaking pill, he must find a way to obtain the high-grade spiritual stone.
As a junior alchemist, and with the Immortal Palace of Immortality, Han Changlin naturally had to refine some elixirs to exchange for spiritual stones.
However, after the experience of encountering Guli Zha last time, Han Changlin became more careful.
Early the next morning, after he left the Yuling Sect, he found an uninhabited cave and got into it.
It was a little dark inside the cave, but it was no big deal to Han Changlin, who was at the peak of the sixth level of Qi Refining.
He was seen sitting in front of a large stone, and then took out a small black clay pot and a bronze mirror from his storage bag.
After opening the cloth cover, Han Changlin reached out and took it out.
The next moment, he took out a brownish-yellow sticky substance that exuded a strange smell.
Han Changlin suppressed a feeling of nausea, smeared the sticky substance on his face, and looked at the bronze mirror.
Within a moment, a monk who looked like a middle-aged man with a sallow face appeared in the bronze mirror.
This sticky substance was found in a miscellany in the library hall, and was refined from three elixirs.
After being applied to the face, it can achieve the effect of disguising one's appearance. Generally, monks in the Qi refining stage cannot see through Han Changlin's true face.
...
More than an hour later, at the entrance of Sanshanfang City.
A middle-aged man with Chinese characters and a sallow complexion walked slowly towards the city, following the footsteps of the crowd.
I saw this man, walking and walking, and then inadvertently ran into a deserted alley somewhere.
"This medicine is really miraculous. No one noticed that I changed my appearance all the way here."
In the alley, Han Changlin was still a little worried. When he saw no one around him, he took out a bronze mirror from his storage bag and carefully observed his appearance.
After seeing that there was nothing wrong, Han Changlin put away the bronze mirror and headed towards the crowd again.
Reappearing on the street, Han Changlin followed the flow of people and walked towards Sanshanfang City. He didn't stop until he saw a two-story attic with "Judanfang" hanging on it.
The lobby of this store is not big. Standing on the street and looking inside, Han Changlin could clearly see the layout inside. Then he just hesitated for a moment and walked towards the inside.
The shop is not big. Apart from one busy clerk, there is an old man who looks to be over fifty years old. He is sitting in the back, holding a book with some curled pages, reading with gusto.
This man was dressed in gray Confucian robes, with snow-white skin but wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. His gray hair was meticulously combed behind his head and tied tightly with a wooden hairpin.
"I wonder if your store can buy Heling Dan?"
After Han Changlin entered the "Judanfang", he came straight to the old man and said.
A slightly hoarse voice reached the old man's ears, pulling him out of his thoughts.
Then he looked up and saw Han Changlin's unfamiliar appearance, but he still put away the book in his hand and said politely:
"Our store will accept it."
The old man looked Han Changlin up and down, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and he also wondered whether the Han Changlin in front of him was a strange alchemist.
"Chen Feng, I wonder at what price your store was purchased?"
Han Changlin glanced at both sides as if unintentionally, then casually made up a name and said calmly.
When the old man saw Han Changlin looking left and right, he suddenly understood in his heart, and the smile on his face suddenly became a little brighter. He stood up and said:
"It turns out that a distinguished guest is here. I, Zhao Xuecheng, am the shopkeeper of Judanfang. I also asked fellow Taoist to follow me to the quiet room for a chat."
As he spoke, the old man stood up and led Han Changlin towards the back of the hall.
As soon as the two sat down, a waiter brought fragrant tea, and then Zhao Xuecheng said straight to the point:
"Young Daoist Chen should be an alchemist. The prices in our store are always fair. Each bottle of Heling Dan is purchased for forty-five low-grade spiritual stones. But I don't know how many Heling Dans you want to sell this time?"
After saying that, Zhao Xuecheng picked up the fragrant tea in front of him and took a sip.
When Han Changlin heard this, he did not refute, but waved his right hand directly in front of the table. The next moment, ten fat white jade bottles appeared in front of the two of them.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, here are ten bottles of Helingdan. Each bottle contains ten pills. Friend Zhao, you can order some."
Seeing this, Zhao Xuecheng didn't say anything. He casually grabbed one of the bottles of Helingdan with a smile and began to check the elixir.
As the shopkeeper of the Judanfang, Zhao Xuecheng has been immersed in elixirs for nearly half his life. He only spent half a cup of tea to check out ten bottles of combined elixirs.
After the count was correct, Zhao Xuecheng stroked his beard and laughed, saying:
"Haha, I have been the shopkeeper of Judanfang for thirty years, but it is very rare to see Helingdan with excellent quality like Daoyou Chen."
"Please wait a moment, fellow Taoist Chen, I will go get the spirit stone right now."
While talking, Zhao Xuecheng had already retreated, and the Heling Pill in his hand was put back to its original place.
Not long after, Zhao Xuecheng left and returned.
As soon as he sat down, Zhao Xuecheng waved his sleeves, and the ten bottles of Helingdan disappeared on the table, and instead, a black storage bag appeared on the table.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, here are four hundred and fifty low-grade spiritual stones. Please count them, Brother Chen. Also, if Brother Chen still has such excellent quality elixirs, please be sure to choose my Judanfang. I promise, The price will definitely satisfy you, Brother Chen.”
Zhao Xuecheng's tone at this moment could be said to be very sincere, and his title also changed from Fellow Daoist Chen to Brother Chen.
"The price given to me by Fellow Daoist Zhao is so fair. I will naturally come to Fellow Daoist Zhao's Judanfang to sell elixirs next time."
Han Changlin agreed, and the low-grade spiritual stones in the storage bag had been counted and put back into his own storage bag.
As for whether we will come next time, only God knows.
After that, the two chatted again, and Zhao Xuecheng kept asking about Han Changlin's current alchemy skills in an insinuating way.
This made Han Changlin feel a little impatient, and then he casually found a reason to say goodbye and leave.
At the same time, I made up my mind not to come to this Judanfang to sell pills.
