I have a proficiency panel for alchemy and immortality

Chapter 99 Auspicious Beast ( words long chapter, please subscribe!)

After walking out of Tianxiang Tower and turning a corner, Song Jie arrived at Lingyaozhai in a short while.

After estimating the amount of pills he would sell at the stall next time, he purchased the corresponding medicinal materials, spending a total of thirty-three spirit stones.

Then deduct the daily expenses during this period, including the rent of five spirit stones.

Song Jie now has 777 spirit stones left in his savings.

Carrying large and small bags of medicinal herbs, Song Jie crossed several streets and soon returned home.

First, he went to the kitchen and sorted the purchased medicinal materials according to different kinds of elixirs and placed them on the shelves.

Then he went to the yard and began to practice spells and body movements.

……

The sun rises and the moon sets.

The moon rises and sets again.

Before I knew it, another seven days had passed.

During these seven days, Song Jie spent almost all of his time refining elixirs, practicing, and researching Yin-nourishing elixir recipes.

During this period, I went out with Shi Lei and decided on the location of their store.

It’s the store that had some shaky hands before.

After a round of shopping, they decided that store was the one that best met their requirements.

This time when Song Jie and Shi Lei went there, the shop owner finally made up his mind to sublet the store.

Compared with the sublease of a house, the sublease of a store is not that fast.

They had to wait until the store had cleared out the goods before going to the housing rental and sales office together to go through the sublease procedures.

After Song Jie and Shi Lei discussed it, they gave the store a month to clear out its inventory.

This amount of time was considered quite ample, and the store owner had no reason to disagree.

Immediately, the three of them drafted a simple agreement.

What if the store regrets and fails to perform according to the agreement?

Then Song Jie and Shi Lei can take this agreement to the house rental and sales office and ask the cultivators from the three major families to come forward.

Request that store to fulfill the terms of the agreement.

If the store still refuses to fulfill its obligations, the monks from the three major families will take tough measures to force the store to fulfill the agreement.

In addition to the store matters, the silver-scale soft armor that Song Jie commissioned Shi Lei to repair has also been repaired.

Shi Lei was still very generous and accepted the material fee from Song Jie, a total of twenty spirit stones.

The silver-scale soft armor, which was originally damaged in many places, became as good as new after being repaired by Shi Lei.

After receiving it, Song Jie happily put on the silver scale soft armor again.

There was an immediate sense of security.

In addition, a few days ago, Song Jie also improved his proficiency in Qingming Youhuo to a skilled level.

So these days, Song Jie has become more adept at refining first-grade elixirs.

The chance of refining a first-grade inferior elixir has increased a lot compared to before.

These days, he has refined a total of five bottles of first-grade inferior elixirs.

Among them are two bottles of Rejuvenating Pills and three bottles of Rejuvenating Pills.

As for the recipe for nourishing Yin pills, Song Jie has deduced a total of five of them over the past few days.

All are versions to be verified.

He planned to go to Lingyaozhai to buy some medicinal materials after closing his stall today, and then refine these five recipes into pills to verify them.

As for the subjects of the experiment.

Because this is a Yin-nourishing elixir, Dahei and Dahuang are obviously no longer able to perform the work of elixir-testing dogs.

Song Jie had no choice but to let them retire honorably and use them again when needed in the future.

As for the prostitutes in Tianxiang Tower, Song Jie did not dare to give the unverified elixirs to them.

So after much thought, Song Jie decided to buy a few more mice after closing his stall today.

You have to buy both male and female ones, otherwise you won’t be able to verify the effectiveness of the Yin-nourishing pill.

"Today is also a day of great wealth~"

As usual, Song Jie encouraged himself and went out with his three sets of equipment for setting up a stall.

After crossing several streets, Song Jie arrived at the stall soon.

"Good morning, sister-in-law~"

Song Jie went out early today. When he arrived at the stall, he saw Li Caiwei had just tidied up the stall.

"Brother Song, you came quite early today." Li Caiwei smiled.

Song Jie put his personal sign and stool in place and said with a smile:
“After I close the stall, I need to go buy some things, so I’m going to open the stall early today.

"I hope I can sell out all the pills and close the stall soon."

"Then Brother Song, you better work hard~"

Li Caiwei winked and then smiled, "Brother Song, how many bottles of first-grade inferior elixirs have you refined this time?"

“I was lucky this time and was able to refine five bottles of first-grade inferior elixirs.

"Two bottles of rejuvenation pills, three bottles of soul-restoring pills."

Song Jie sat on a small stool with a smile on his face, taking out bottles of pills from the medicine box one by one and placing them on the stall.

Li Caiwei was quite surprised and said, "Brother Song, with your talent for alchemy, it's a pity that you didn't go to Danding Sect."

Although she is not an alchemist, she has been in Xinyue Market for many years, so she naturally knows some basic knowledge of cultivating immortals.

She remembered clearly that the last time Song Jie set up a stall, he refined two bottles of first-grade inferior elixirs.

This time, he was able to refine five bottles of first-grade inferior elixirs.

The interval in between was only seven or eight days.

From this it is enough to see that Song Jie's talent in alchemy is really extraordinary.

At least in this Xinyue Market, Li Caiwei had never heard of any wild alchemist who could reach the level of Song Jie.

Song Jie waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing to regret.

"You can only gain if you give up~
“Although I gave up joining the Danding Sect, I gained the freedom I wanted.

"Besides, we are going to open a store soon, so it would be nice to be our own boss.

"Maybe we can expand the store to Yunmiao City in the future and open a bigger store there."

"Yunmiao City..." Li Caiwei smiled and covered her mouth, "I didn't expect Brother Song to have such ambitions.

“Neither your elder brother Shi nor I dared to imagine that we would be able to open a store in Yunmiao City one day.

"I am already satisfied as long as I can run a good shop in Xinyuefang Market."

Yunmiao City, as a big city where many cultivators gather, is many times larger than Xinyue Market.

Many of the five major sects’ industries are located in Yunmiao City.

In Xinyue Market, it is almost impossible to see the whereabouts of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But in Yunmiao City, although Foundation Establishment cultivators are not everywhere, they can be seen frequently.

If one does not build a foundation, even if one has reached the eighth or ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage, once he goes to Yunmiao City, he will only become a low-level cultivator.

Li Caiwei is only at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Stage now, so naturally she doesn't dare to think about opening a shop in Yunmiao City.

Song Jie laughed and said calmly: "When people live in this world, they should always have some dreams, so that they can have motivation in life."

"That's true, Brother Song."

While the two were chatting and laughing, Song Jie neatly arranged the pills to be sold this time.

There are thirty-one bottles of aphrodisiac pills in total.

Among them, there are three bottles of Budao Pills, four bottles of Yuanyang Pills, and twenty-one bottles of Vajra Dragon and Tiger Pills.

A bottle of elixir contains ten bottles.

Five bottles of Rejuvenating Pills and five bottles of Rejuvenating Pills.

This is the elixir that Song Jie has been refining during this period.

There were also four bottles of Fuling Pills, which were consumed by him during the process of refining the elixir.

After all the pills for sale were put out, not long after, a familiar and hearty laugh was heard from not far away.

"Fellow Daoist Song, it's been a long time since we last met. I, Miao, am back again."

Song Jie looked over when he heard the voice and found that the person coming was his number one regular customer, Miao Tong.

Immediately, Song Jie's face was filled with smiles.

"It's been a long time since we last met. What have you been busy with recently, Brother Miao?"

As far as he could remember, in the last two or three times when he had set up his stall, he had never seen Miao Tong come to buy pills from him.

Even when I went to Tianxiang Tower, I didn't see Miao Tong.

The last time he went to Tianxiang Tower for a medical consultation, Song Jie specifically asked Fairy Yunshang about it.

Fairy Yunshang also said that fellow Taoist Miao had not been to Tianxiang Tower for a long time.

Song Jie originally thought that Miao Tong might have encountered some accident, as even his favorite fairy Yunshang could bear not to meet him for such a long time.

The world of cultivating immortals can be said to be unchanging since time immemorial, yet it is also changing rapidly.

Two people who are still talking and laughing today may be separated by death tomorrow.

So after receiving the news from Fairy Yunshang, Song Jie observed a moment of silence for Miao Tong.

A myriad of emotions arose in my heart.

However, he never expected that fellow Taoist Miao, who he thought had met with an accident, appeared before him again today.

And looking at it, he seems to be in good spirits.

Song Jie was naturally very happy about this.

Miao Tong came to Song Jie's stall in a few steps and laughed, "During this period of time, I and several fellow Taoists have been in the Shiwan Mountains.

"That's why no one has come to patronize Brother Song's business."

"Oh?" There was a flash of surprise in Song Jie's eyes, and he asked, "Why did Brother Miao stay in the Ten Thousand Mountains for so long this time?" Song Jie had heard Miao Tong talk about this when they were chatting before.

I know that Miao Tong usually doesn't stay in the mountains for more than five days each time.

The longest time was only ten days.

But this time, Miao Tong stayed in the Shiwanda Mountains for more than ten days.

When he heard Song Jie's question, a hint of surprise flashed in Miao Tong's eyes.

He asked back, "Hasn't Master Song Dan heard about it?"

"What did you hear?" Song Jie looked confused.

He stays at home almost every day making medicine, so how could he hear any news?

Miao Tong had not realized this before, but only now realized that Song Jie was an alchemist.

He immediately explained, “There was a rumor a while ago that auspicious beasts appeared in the Shiwan Mountains.

“And the rumor also said that it was a juvenile auspicious beast.

“After hearing the news, many monks went into the mountains to look for the auspicious beast.

"As for me, I'll join in the fun.

“I found a few fellow Taoists and went into the mountains to try our luck.

"If we really catch a young auspicious beast, we will make a fortune."

When Song Jie heard this, a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

Reviewing the information about the auspicious beast in the original owner's memory.

The so-called auspicious beast, as the name suggests, refers to a beast of good fortune, that is, a monster that can bring good luck.

Forces like sects and families would raise some auspicious beasts to bless their fortune and bring good luck.

Some independent cultivators, if they have no shortage of spirit stones, will also raise a lucky beast to improve their own fortune.

Before traveling through time, Song Jie's impression of auspicious beasts were all mythical creatures such as Qilin and Pixiu.

After traveling to this world, I discovered that the auspicious beasts in the world of immortal cultivation refer to some monsters with relatively good fortune.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there are many explanations for luck, and it is quite mysterious.

Unfortunately, because the original owner was just a casual cultivator at the lowest level in the world of immortal cultivation and didn't know much about luck, Song Jie didn't really understand the concept of luck either.

However, from the fact that sects, families and other forces all raise auspicious beasts, we can see that luck is indeed an existence that cannot be ignored.

Thinking of this, Song Jie immediately asked, "Did Daoist Miao catch the young auspicious beast?"

"Of course not. Not to mention catching the auspicious beast, we haven't even seen the shadow of it.

“Until now, I haven’t heard of anyone catching the auspicious beast.

"I even doubt whether the rumor that there are auspicious beasts in the Shiwan Mountains is false."

Miao Tong sighed lightly, but did not look very disappointed.

Before setting out, he actually knew that the probability of catching the auspicious beast was very small, so he was just trying his luck.

The auspicious beast itself is auspicious and has the fortune of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, so how could it be so easy for a cultivator to catch it?

So he wandered around in the Ten Thousand Mountains for nearly half a month, and he had almost finished all the fasting pills.

Miao Tong and his fellow Taoists left the Shiwan Mountains and returned to Xinyue Market.

Song Jie comforted him after hearing this: "Fellow Daoist Miao, there is no need to be discouraged, there is a saying that goes like this.

“If it is destined to happen, it will happen eventually; if it is not destined to happen, don’t force it.

"Although you didn't catch the auspicious beast, maybe other good luck is waiting for you."

"Hahahaha...Fellow Daoist Song, you really got it right.

“Although we didn’t catch any auspicious animals this time, we still had a great harvest.

"Look, I just exchanged my gains for spirit stones and immediately came to Brother Song to buy elixirs."

"Then I really want to thank Fellow Daoist Miao for his support~"

Song Jie bowed to Miao Tong and then asked, "What kind of elixir are you planning to buy this time, Fellow Daoist Miao?"

"I heard that Fellow Daoist Song has been able to refine first-grade lower-grade rejuvenation pills and soul-restoring pills?"

"That's right, Brother Miao, would you like a bottle?"

"Are there any Rejuvenation Pills and Rejuvenation Pills of lower grade quality?"

"That's a must." Song Jie laughed.

Miao Tong immediately said cheerfully: "Then give me a bottle of Rejuvenation Pill and Rejuvenation Pill each, both of first-grade lower quality.

"Also, give me another bottle of King Kong Dragon Tiger Pill. I haven't visited Fairy Yunshang to catch up for a while. I miss her so much. Hahaha..."

Song Jie blinked his eyes and said, "Brother Miao, why don't you ask me how much I sell my low-grade Rejuvenation Pills and Rejuvenation Pills?
"Just one bottle each?"

"Do I need to ask more? Fellow Daoist Song's pricing is absolutely fair.

"Fellow Daoist Song, just tell me how many spirit stones you have in total."

Song Jie smiled gratefully and said, “Thank you, Brother Miao, for your trust.

"But it would be better for me to tell you the price so that Fellow Daoist Miao will have an idea of ​​the price."

Song Jie immediately told the selling price of the first-grade inferior Rejuvenation Pill and Soul-Restoring Pill.

After hearing this, Miao Tong decisively took out ten spirit stones and bought the required pills from Song Jie.

After putting the three bottles of pills into his arms, Miao Tong did not stay here any longer. After saying goodbye to Song Jie, he rushed to Tianxiang Tower in a hurry.

Looking at Miao Tong's anxious and excited expression, Song Jie couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Miao, this is truly living a carefree life.

“After earning spiritual stones, I immediately went to Tianxiang Tower to spend them.

"This is what we call drinking and enjoying life today..."

Li Caiwei, who was standing by, heard this and immediately covered her mouth with her hands and laughed, "Brother Song, do you want this too?"

"No, I just feel a little emotional." Song Jie shook his head and said with a smile: "Everyone has their own aspirations...

“Although I can chat with Taoist Miao, we are not on the same path after all.

"At least not in that respect."

Li Caiwei said with a wave of her eyes: "Brother Song is quite frank."

Song Jie smiled slightly and did not continue the topic.

Then he asked, "Sister-in-law, do you think the rumors about the auspicious beast in the Shiwan Mountains are true or false?"

"It should be true." Li Caiwei looked up and thought for a moment, then continued:
“After all, so many cultivators have gone to the Shiwan Mountains to catch auspicious beasts, so it still has a certain degree of credibility.

"Why? Brother Song is also interested in that auspicious beast?"

Song Jie shook his head and smiled, "No, I'm only at the third level of Qi Refining Stage, how dare I have any ideas?

"I'm just a little curious about what the auspicious beast looks like, and how it differs from ordinary demon beasts in appearance..."

“If there is any difference in appearance, ordinary monks really can’t see it.

“Only when one has cultivated the Qi-gazing technique to a certain level can one see the destiny.

“Only then can we tell with our naked eyes whether it is a auspicious beast or an ordinary demon beast.”

Hearing Li Caiwei's confident answer, Song Jie couldn't help but ask curiously, "Could it be that sister-in-law has seen a lucky beast?"

"Yeah, I've seen it before."

Li Caiwei nodded and gave a simple reply, seemingly not intending to expand on the topic.

Seeing this, Song Jie did not continue to ask, but smiled and said: "It would be great if we could also get a lucky beast to guard the store.

"When the store opens, it will surely bring in a lot of money~"

"If Brother Song wants to raise a lucky beast, you can buy one when you earn enough spirit stones in the future."

"If I have to spend spirit stones to buy it, I don't know when it will take."

Song Jie smiled helplessly.

He thought of the pond of little carp in his yard.

When Ni Qinghong sublet the house to herself, the little carp in the pond were still very active.

Not long after they moved in, they all died.

If you spend a large amount of spirit stones and buy a auspicious beast.

I'm afraid that it won't be long before he kills me.

If that happens, it would be a huge loss.

After the two chatted for a while, they saw a customer coming and immediately stopped communicating.

……

By the evening, Song Jie had successfully sold all the pills he brought this time.

A total of eighty-two spirit stones were deposited into the account.

After packing up the stall, Song Jie said goodbye to Li Caiwei.

"Sister-in-law, I still need to buy some medicinal materials for alchemy, so I will leave first."

"Okay, take care, Brother Song~"

Then, Song Jie picked up his stall set and went straight to Lingyaozhai.

While walking on the way, Song Jie was thinking about the plans for the next period of time.

“The Yin-nourishing Pill that Yunmengdie entrusted me with has been delayed for some time.

"In the next few days, work harder and try to refine the Yin-nourishing Pill first, and give Yun Mengdie an answer.

“After refining the Yin-nourishing elixir, I will refine the elixir I will sell next time I set up a stall.

“At the same time, the improvement and upgrade of the Yuanyang Pill entrusted by Fellow Daoist Huangfu should also be put on the agenda.

“We will try to clear all these commissions within three weeks.

"Then we will start preparing for the opening of the store..."
