Having a fixed residence means you have a place to settle down.
Although it had only been three months since he became a monk from a mortal, Chen Yuan already had his own plans and goals in mind.
Mortals suffer from the ups and downs of life, but monks only need to consider how to improve their cultivation and how to make their life span longer.
Eternal life is the lifelong pursuit of every monk, and Chen Yuan, who has read "A Brief Introduction to Monks", is no exception.
I inspected my stone house and courtyard twice and found nothing wrong except for some simple bed equipment.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Chen Yuan began to plan for the next practice.
At the first level of Qi training, although he already possesses magic power, he is only the lowest existence in the monk world, and anyone can kill him.
"If you want to survive well in this world of monks, strength is the most important thing."
Exhaling a breath, Chen Yuan began to check the items he owned:
Low-grade magic weapons such as black-patterned hammers, poisonous Qi-gathering pills, diamond talismans, etc. are considered good means of survival. A bottle of five-star Qi Gathering Pill and a bottle of three-star Qi Gathering Pill can be used for your own cultivation.
However, the Qi Gathering Pill will always be used up. If you want to continue practicing, the pill is the top priority.
The century-old Spirit Condensing Grass given to him by Liu Muyun was used to refine Qi Gathering Pills. As long as he found an alchemist, he could get several more bottles of Qi Gathering Pills.
"The "Brief Introduction to Monks" says that alchemists are a rare profession among monks. I just don't know if I can become an alchemist? Even if I am just the lowest alchemist, with the Yin Yang Cauldron, I don't have to worry about not having a high-level alchemist. Pill."
"The courtyard where weeds grow can also be used to plant some spiritual herbs for future use in alchemy."
"The last step is to draw the talisman. The most commonly used attack method by low-level monks is the talisman. A ninth-grade talisman may even be comparable to a high-grade magic weapon. Without the resources of the master and the gift from the master, this talisman technique requires some learning."
Although it is said that monks are most taboo about being complex without being refined, but in Chen Yuan's current state, mastering one more monk skill will give him an extra layer of protection.
As long as the Double Dragon Yin Yang Cauldron is in hand, even if the elixir he refines and the talismans he draws are only the lowest level, as long as he has enough spiritual stones, he can turn them into the highest level.
With a decision in his mind, Chen Yuan stopped sitting. Chen Yuan planned to go find Liu Muyun. Based on her familiarity with Maple Leaf City, she should be able to buy books on alchemy.
"Brother Chen, are you going out? My little sister has something to do with you."
Pushing open the door, Chen Yuan and Liu Muyun came face to face, and their faces almost collided.
"I also plan to look for you. I want to buy some alchemy books and elixir seeds. Can Miss Liu take me there?"
After more than two months of contact, the relationship between Chen Yuan and Liu Muyun also made a qualitative leap.
Liu Muyun also changed her title of Chen Yuan from young master to elder brother Chen.
"Brother Chen wants to become an alchemist. It's simple. My little sister will take you to the Divine Pill Hall in Maple Leaf City. Although there is no real magical pill there, there must be something you want."
Chen Yuan nodded and followed Liu Muyun to the small town at the foot of Maple Leaf Mountain again.
Shendantang is a very large organization. It is rumored that its power is comparable to the three authentic sects of the Daqi Dynasty. Its headquarters is occupied by super strong men in the late Jindan period.
It can be said that wherever there are monks in the world, there is a shadow of Shendan Hall.
In the hearts of casual cultivators, the Shendan Hall is the best place for them to obtain elixirs for practice. Firstly, the Divine Pill Hall is strong enough and the elixirs sold are guaranteed. Secondly, you can buy and sell in the Divine Pill Hall. As long as you have pills and spiritual herbs in your hand, you can sell them at a good price here.
The Divine Alchemy Hall in Maple Leaf City cannot be said to be tall, but it is also the most magnificent attic in the entire Maple Leaf City, with a height of five stories. There is a lantern hanging at the corner of each floor with a big word "Dan" written on it.
"Let's go in. My little sister has an acquaintance here. I'm guaranteed to buy whatever you want at the lowest price."
Liu Muyun brought Chen Yuan to a middle-aged man in a familiar manner, put her hands on her hips and said in a loud voice:
"Liu Laoer, are there any good elixirs available recently? I don't want one or two stars. The lowest level requires three stars."
Seeing that the person coming was Liu Muyun, the middle-aged manager of Shendan Hall, she said with a smile:
"My aunt, do you think three-star pills are beans from farmers? In our entire Maple Leaf City branch of Shendan Hall, only Master Dou can refine them, and he can refine up to three pills a month. If you want three-star pills, I There are no stewards here. If you have the ability, go find Master Dou."
Facing the little enchantress in front of him, the middle-aged manager Liu was helpless. There were not even a thousand but eight hundred casual cultivators in Maple Leaf City. Anyone who saw him would respectfully address him as Manager Liu. Only this little enchantress called him Liu Laoer.
Who said that someone else's master was a strong person at the ninth level of Qi training, and he had watched her grow up?
If you don’t have it, then you don’t have it. Two two-star Qi Gathering Pills are fine. Recently, I feel like my niece is about to advance and I urgently need high-level Qi Gathering Pills to break through the bottleneck.
The well-behaved Liu Muyun is also very cute, with a pair of smart eyes that blink and blink very smartly.
"Oh, by the way! Liu Laoer, let me introduce you to someone. My eldest brother, Chen Yuan, although he was only at the first level of Qi training, he single-handedly killed the Snow Mountain Wolf, a first-level ferocious beast that was comparable to the third level of Qi training. king."
After hearing that Chen Yuan once hunted the first-order ferocious beast Snow Mountain Wolf King alone, Manager Liu's eyes shifted to Chen Yuan.
In the monk world, in addition to ordinary ferocious beasts, the ferocious beasts that can be cultivated also have levels, mostly divided into levels one to nine. Among them, the first level ferocious beast is the strongest and can be compared to the third level of Qi training.
Chen Yuan was able to hunt down the first-level Snow Mountain Wolf King on his own with the first level of Qi training, which shows that Chen Yuan's strength is at least comparable to that of the second level of Qi training.
"Junior Chen Yuan, please pay your respects to Manager Liu."
Chen Yuan cupped his fists and bowed.
"The young man is good and has a promising future. I wonder if Chen Shaoxia came to my Shendan Hall to buy or sell?"
Manager Liu looked Chen Yuan up and down and said.
"My eldest brother has the talent to become an alchemist, so I want to buy some junior alchemist books and year-old spirit-condensing grass from you, plus some seeds of common elixirs. Liu Laoer, don't tell me you don't have any?"
Liu Muyun stole Chen Yuan's words.
"Alchemist talent? Young man, you have just entered the world of monks. Do you know what the alchemist talent means? Among hundreds of monks, there may not be an alchemist. Young people should not aim too high, and it is better to concentrate on cultivation."
Manager Liu was polite to Chen Yuan for Liu Muyun's sake, but he did not think that the dark and thin young man in front of him could become an alchemist.
In Maple Leaf City, among the thousands of casual cultivators, there are only three alchemists, and they are all in the Divine Alchemy Hall.
"Liu Laoer, you seem to have talked a bit too much today. Hurry up and get what Brother Chen needs."
Liu Muyun seemed to notice Manager Liu's different attitude and urged him hard.
Not long after, Manager Liu took out a book with more than ten pages and a wooden box, and said, "Ten spiritual stones!"
"Liu Laoer, why don't you go and grab it? It's just such a small thing, worth ten spiritual stones. That's the price of a low-grade magic weapon."
Liu Muyun was even more dissatisfied.
"The items needed by an alchemist are different from those of other monks. It is said that rare things are more valuable. Since the alchemist is the rarest profession in the monk world, the prices of the items used are naturally the most expensive."
Although she knew that Manager Liu was trying to rip off customers, Liu Muyun had nothing to say at this time and looked at Chen Yuan.
"Ten yuan is ten yuan. It's better to buy things that are useful to you than not being able to buy them at all."
When he heard the price mentioned by the other party, Chen Yuan also wanted to scold the other party.
When I think of the other party's identity and my own strength, I can only passively accept it.
After paying the spirit stones and taking the items they needed, Chen Yuan and the two left the Shendan Hall.
In Maple Leaf City, in addition to some fixed shops like the Shendan Hall, there are also some casual cultivators who set up street stalls. They take out the things they don't use and set up stalls in exchange for what they need for cultivation.
After Ma Xiaohu, Niu Bingdao, and Liu Muyun greeted each other, they came to an old man with gray hair.
"Brother Chen, he is what I told you, the most famous stall master in Maple Leaf City, Sun Chenghai, a strong man at the fifth level of Qi training."
Walking to the stall of monk surnamed Sun, Liu Muyun went her own way and picked up a second-grade talisman. After looking at it from front to back, she said:
"Sun Chenghai, do you have the talisman pens, cinnabar, talisman paper and other materials needed to draw the talismans?"
"Miss Liu, why are you here again? Didn't I give you two ice pick charms for nothing? I have nothing more to give you."
Seeing Liu Muyun picking up her belongings casually, Sun Chenghai was like a mouse meeting a cat and quickly packed up his belongings.
"I won't let you give it away today, so I'll buy it. Tell me quickly, do you have the items needed to draw the talisman?"
After knowing that Liu Muyun wanted to buy it, the gray-haired Sun Chenghai finally arranged the items again with confidence and said:
"Yes, and they are all of medium quality. They only require three spiritual stones."
Sun Chenghai casually scratched the Qiankun bag, and items such as pens, talismans, and paper appeared in front of Chen Yuan.
After decisively paying the spirit stone, Chen Yuan said before Liu Muyun could speak: "Senior, do you want to sell this parchment?"
After arriving at Sun Chenghai's stall, Chen Yuan took a fancy to a piece of parchment that was slightly yellow in color and had many pictures and texts. Based on his intuition, he knew that this parchment was not simple and seemed to be a good treasure. .
"Sell, of course. It's just that all the items in this stall are for sale. I spent a lot of effort to get this parchment. According to its original owner, it has an extraordinary magic spell on it. If you want If you want, I’ll sell you five spiritual stones.”
Chen Yuan reached out to pick up the parchment.
Sudden……
A shadow floated before his eyes.
"No one wants to buy this parchment. It is an item that I have long admired."
The person who snatched the parchment was a young monk with a gloomy face and dressed in rich clothes.
"Guo Hao, you dare to steal Brother Chen's things. Do you think I don't exist?"
Liu Muyun looked at the monk fiercely.
"You? A woman who is about to become someone else's furnace. How dare you speak so arrogantly to me!"
