Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 36 Okay, okay, buddy, is this how you do it?

After casually putting away the prescription, Lin Ran looked at the storage ring presented by the woman in green. He swept it over with his soul power and knew the contents of the ring clearly.

The medicinal herbs in this container should be enough to refine three Demon Transformation Pills. Clearly, the woman in green had already factored in the possibility of failure in refining the pills.

Besides the medicinal herbs, Lin Ran also noticed a few unusual items.

Using his soul power, he discovered that the jade bottles contained the essence blood of several high-level magical beasts, though most were fifth-tier beasts, with only two being sixth-tier.

Clearly, this is the price Green Robe chose to pay for refining the Demon Transformation Pill.

With just two bottles of sixth-order magical beast essence blood, it was naturally not enough for a sixth-grade alchemist to make a single move. However, Lin Ran also knew that his two Battle Spirit Pills could not actually be sold for the same price as before.

Five million gold coins, a sixth-tier magical beast's magic core, and a seventh-tier magical beast's essence blood.

That truly shows Green's sincerity!

After carefully putting away the storage ring, Lin Ran smiled gently. "Three sets of materials are enough to refine one Demon Transformation Pill. When would you like me to begin refining it?"

"Just be ready!"

Upon hearing this, the man in green immediately showed a hint of excitement and said respectfully.

"Since that's the case, let's do it now. We'll be leaving Blackrock City tomorrow, so it's best not to delay," Lin Ran said calmly. He then looked at Otto, Frank, and Gutt: "Since you've come to observe alchemy, you can choose the location I need for it. What do you say?"

"no problem!"

Gutt waved his hand dismissively: "My lord, please rest assured, my residence is secluded and tranquil, and there will be no outsiders to disturb you. You can simply go to my place to refine pills!"

"Nonsense! Our Alchemist Guild has a dedicated alchemy area. You can easily produce medicine simply by going to our guild to refine medicine!" Orl rejected the idea outright.

"Indeed, Your Excellency is a sixth-grade alchemist personally appointed by the Pill Tower, and our Alchemist Guild is a place dedicated to alchemy. You should indeed go to our place."

Frank stroked his white beard and spoke in a deep voice.

"You two old fools, stop talking nonsense! The master needs a quiet environment to refine sixth-grade pills. Your Alchemist Guild is full of eyes and ears. If you disturb the master's alchemy, will you bear the consequences?!"

Gu Te angrily retorted, "Besides, my younger brother Gu He is also a sixth-grade alchemist. I have extensive experience in refining high-level pills. Sir, you just need to go to my place to refine the pills, and I will take care of everything else for you!"

Upon hearing this, Otto and Frank wanted to argue, but they didn't know where to begin. All they could do was puff out their beards and glare at Gutt.

There's no way around it; having a younger brother who's a sixth-grade alchemist gives him a lot of leverage!

"In that case, let's go."

Lin Ran spoke calmly, and Gutt smiled smugly at Otto Frank and the others before quickly leading the way.

The group marched in a grand procession toward Gutt's residence. Along the way, people kept greeting the group respectfully. There was no way around it; for the people of Blackrock City, this group was simply too intimidating.

The city lord of Blackrock City, one of only two fourth-grade alchemists in Blackrock City, and the legendary elder brother of the Pill King Guhe.

Such a lineup coming together is bound to pique their curiosity.

Amidst the astonished gazes of onlookers, Lin Ran, accompanied by Little Fairy Doctor, and the others, wandered through more than a dozen dizzying streets in Black Rock City before finally stopping in front of a strange building in a secluded corner near the south of the city.

Looking up at the strange building in front of him, Gutt gave an awkward but polite smile, cupped his hands in greeting to Lin Ran, and said, "Please come in, sir."

"Um."

Lin Ran nodded calmly and stepped inside, followed closely by Little Fairy Doctor and Green Robe. However, when Otto, Frank, and the others were about to enter, they were stopped by Gutt.

"What do you mean?!"

Otto's expression was unfriendly, his eyes fixed on Gutt, as if to say, "If you dare to stop me, I'll fight you to the death today!"

"I know you have the adults' permission, but you're all aware of what's in this house, so please be careful!"

Although Otto and Frank were of higher rank than him, and the Black Rock City Lord was a powerful Dou Ling expert, Gutt showed them no respect whatsoever, saying irritably, "Otherwise, I'll just kick you all out!"

"You old rascal! I know!"

Otto, his face ashen, gave a cold snort and led Linfei into the house. Frank shook his head and followed with Xue Mei.

"I won't go in."

The city lord of Blackrock City shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Master Gutt, I know nothing about alchemy, so I won't bother you. However, the fact that a sixth-grade alchemist has appeared in Blackrock City needs you and me to make a name for ourselves so that we can report it to the capital."

"Yes, I understand."

Gu Te nodded. Although he was concerned about alchemy, he was, after all, a citizen of the Jia Ma Empire. It was only natural that he had to report the emergence of such a terrifyingly powerful figure within the Jia Ma Empire.

With a surge of fighting spirit, Guter took out a specially made medal from his pocket and handed it to the city lord.

"Take it. It contains my personal mark. If you hand it over, my brother will know about it too."

"This is troublesome, Master Gutt."

"Um."

Gu Te nodded, quickly turned around and went into the house, following Lin Ran and the others.

Gutt's room was very strange, not only in appearance but also in its interior.

His room was not like an ordinary house; rather, it resembled a museum, with custom-made crystal stands filled with various collections.

"Fireheart Seven-Leaf Flower... Blood Crystal Grass... And this is Blue Rock Heartstone?!"

Little Fairy Doctor occasionally let out a few gasps of surprise, and Lin Fei, Xue Mei, and the others were also shocked. Clearly, this was their first time visiting Gu Te's home.

"Master Gu Te truly lives up to his reputation as the elder brother of Dan Wang Gu He; his foundation is indeed profound."

The woman in green looked around and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

While these items in Gutt's collection may not be considered particularly impressive, they are extremely rare. Each one is a rare treasure, and in terms of rarity alone, the items here are no less than the treasure trove of a major power!

"My lord, these are all items I've collected over the years. Please feel free to choose any that catch your eye."

Gutt caught up with Lin Ran and the others and quickly spoke up.

Lin Ran nodded, not standing on ceremony, as this was part of the transaction: "Little Fairy Doctor, choose three items and leave."

"Yes, young master!"

Little Fairy Doctor chuckled and instantly selected two highly poisonous items, making Gu Te's eyelids twitch in surprise.

He felt compelled to speak up and say, "My lord, both items your maid has chosen are highly poisonous. It's not that I don't want to give them to you, but I'm worried..."

"No need to worry."

Lin Ran spoke calmly, letting Little Fairy Doctor choose again. After Little Fairy Doctor selected two highly poisonous items, she came to Lin Ran's side, somewhat hesitantly.

"What's wrong?"

"Young master, I like things here that are icy cold..."

Guter frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Please wait a moment."

The next moment, he turned around and banged on a wall haphazardly for a while. Then, with a slight muffled sound, a hole appeared behind the wall.

The appearance of the hole immediately aroused everyone's curiosity. Gutt snorted and crawled into it. After waiting for a while, Gutt crawled out again, holding something in his hands.

After sealing the hole in the wall, Gutt turned around and placed the white jade box, which was as big as a washbasin, into Little Fairy Doctor's arms.

The white jade box was sealed perfectly, with no gaps except for the opening at the top.

Although separated by a layer of white jade, Little Fairy Doctor could still sense the faint chill emanating from it.

With a reluctant pat, Gu Te carefully opened the sealed lid of the jade box. As soon as the lid was removed, a chilling mist rose up, and the temperature inside the room plummeted.

Everyone immediately turned their curious gazes toward them.

All around the jade bottle was a chilling aura, so cold it seemed to freeze one's heart and soul. Looking at the small jade bottle permeated with this cold aura, Gu Te gritted his teeth and placed it in Little Fairy Doctor's hand.

"You can take this too!"

"This is... the Ice Spirit Cold Spring?!"

Otto's pupils contracted as he gave Gutt a deep look.

This old rogue is actually willing to give away such a treasure; he really wants to befriend this young man.

"My lord, this item may also be of use to you."

Before Otto could ponder further, Frank suddenly took out a deep blue crystal from his storage ring and spoke up.

Holy crap?!

Otto's eye twitched.

Dude, you play like this too?!
