Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Chapter 26 The Winning Over of Yipin Pharmacy (Please continue reading)

Back in the cabin.

Yu Changsheng had no idea that he was being watched.

He took out the Qi Gathering Pills he had obtained from Luo Lesheng and fed the remaining few to the Crimson Serpent King, gaining a total of over 60 points of essence.

Now, apart from the fixed 135 essence points he gets from feeding the spirit chickens every day, he obtains all the remaining essence points from the Red Serpent King.

During this period, the Crimson Serpent King also grew rapidly, approaching the mid-stage of the sixth level of the first tier.

"Shhh!"

The Red Serpent King swung its tail rapidly beside him, training its body and breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Before long, it was so tired that it collapsed and didn't want to move anymore.

"To further accelerate the Crimson Serpent King's cultivation speed, we need to continue to raise the limits of its race. The complete Crimson Serpent requires 4988 essence points, which is 22 points less than before."

"This progress is negligible. No wonder many demonic beasts may not be able to transform into their complete form even after more than ten years. Without the system's help, I simply cannot cultivate them."

Yu Changsheng turned his gaze away from the Crimson Serpent King and opened the character panel.

Name: Yu Changsheng

[Realm: Fourth Level of Qi Refining]

[Physique: Affinity with Spirit Beasts]

【功法：长春功熟练（5/10000）炼神功熟练（2012/10000）御兽决入门（15/1000）三文火炼丹术熟练（1/10000）】

【法术：火球术精通（5/10000）、风行术精通（10/10000）、木盾术精通（15/10000）、行雨术入门（10/100）】

[Skills: Tier 1 Spirit Plants (5/1000), Tier 2 Alchemy (6/50000)]

[Spirit Pet: Red Serpent King]

[Remaining Essence: 870]

This month I added points to the Divine Refining Technique, the Three-Wood Fire Alchemy Technique, and the Second-Order Alchemy Dao, consuming four thousand essences.

His divine sense thus reached a terrifying 240 meters, which was even wider than that of the peak Qi Refining stage, equivalent to a quarter of the Foundation Establishment stage divine sense!

The Three Fires Alchemy Technique and the Divine Refining Technique are at the same level, but the Alchemy Path is quite special, requiring 50,000 essences to go from the second to the third level!

However, his progress in alchemy is already sufficient, and there is no need to add more points in the short term.

If all goes well, he will be able to store enough essence next month to allow the Crimson Serpent King to transform once again.

"Isn't it too attention-grabbing to see it transform so quickly in just a few months?"

Thinking of this, Yu Changsheng became secretly on guard.

His choice of the red serpent as his spirit pet was known to Manager Wang of the Affairs Hall and Elder Wei of the Beast Taming Peak Beast Garden.

The fact that a transformation occurs every few months could perhaps be explained by luck.

Even a fool would know there was a problem after two such instances!

"The Crimson Serpent King's current bloodline density is sufficient for it to cultivate to the peak of the first tier. It can transform then; at most, its cultivation speed will be slower. I'm still young, I have plenty of time!"

"I examine myself three times a day, and I must act cautiously and not be too alarming."

"Since the Crimson Serpent King cannot transform in a short time, I can acquire another demonic beast to raise. Thanks to the strengthening of my divine sense through the Divine Refinement Technique, my inner realm has expanded to a size of sixty square meters, so contracting another spirit pet will not be a problem!"

Thinking about this, Yu Changsheng gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.

The Crimson Serpent King was lonely working hard alone. Having a companion to encourage it would help it coil up even more, not only maintaining its fighting spirit but also reducing the attention it would receive from cultivators outside.

Make a decision.

A few days later, after feeding the spirit chicken, he went to the Fish Market.

The Beast Garden of Beast Taming Peak is open to disciples of Beast Taming Peak. It can only be accessed when choosing an initial beast to tame, and there is no charge.

Currently, Yu Changsheng is not yet an outer disciple of the Beast Taming Peak. If he wants to obtain a new beast, he can only go to the Myriad Beasts Pavilion.

However, he was a little short on cash and needed to exchange the pills he had just refined for spirit stones.

"Get out! Get out of here with your worthless pills!"

"With this quality, you think you can sell it to us? Don't you even know where you are? This is Yipin Pharmacy, not some small, run-down stall in a shantytown!"

As soon as Yu Changsheng arrived at the medicine hall, he saw a servant in blue robes driving a rogue cultivator out.

Faced with this treatment, the other party angrily flicked his sleeves and left without saying a word.

Such scenes are not uncommon, simply because Yipin Pharmacy is one of the top pharmacies in Fish Market. If you sell the pills it produces to them, you can earn much more than you would by setting up your own stall.

The pills sold at independent cultivator stalls are cheap, but the quality is generally poor. If you're unlucky, you might even get diarrhea from them. Therefore, cultivators with ample funds will choose reputable pharmacies instead.

"They don't even know what kind of people they are before trying to sell pills."

The servant in blue spat at the dejected figure, but upon seeing Yu Changsheng, he immediately changed his tune.

"Please come in, esteemed immortal. What brings you here to buy this time?"

The reason the servant in blue was so polite to Yu Changsheng was simply because he had been here before and was pretending to be at the peak of Qi Refining!

Therefore, having real strength is very important, even if it's just fake strength!

"Selling pills, Qi-gathering pills."

A hoarse voice came from beneath Yu Changsheng's mask.

"Selling elixirs requires our boss to personally inspect the quality, please come this way."

The servant in blue robes led him to the counter with a forced smile, where he met a refined and cultured middle-aged man.

This employer is named Xi Wenyou, from the Xi family of Haoyue City outside the Cloud Mist Mountains. He himself has the strength of the eighth level of Qi Refining, and he also has some connections with some disciples in the Myriad Manifestations Sect.

The shops on this inner street are all related in some way; they are the fruits of centuries of family business.

A Qi-refining family like the Yu family, which has only been established for less than two hundred years, is much weaker. In Haoyue City, they are only second-rate and have no capital to interfere in the Fish Market.

"Manager Xi, these are Qi Gathering Pills that have been refined in the last few days. I wonder what their value is?"

Yu Changsheng was not afraid of his opponent, after all, his divine sense at the eighth level of Qi Refining could not see through his disguise.

Xi Wenyou opened the medicine bottle and poured the contents onto the white cloth, and was immediately taken aback.

"All of them are single-layered red patterns?"

He raised his head, stared at Yu Changsheng, and immediately laughed, "Fellow Daoist, you are quite capable. I heard from the servant that you just bought the formula for the Qi Gathering Pill a few days ago. I didn't expect you to be able to refine so many pill patterns at such a short time."

At the same time, he quickly calculated in his mind.

Three sets of materials, fifteen pieces in total. It should be that two sets were successfully completed, and both had a pill pattern. The alchemy skills are at least at the peak of the first rank, or at the second rank alchemist level!

Thinking of this, Xi Wenyou's expression became much warmer, and he said, "The purchase price for a bottle of Qi Gathering Pills containing six pills is twenty-one spirit stones. However, your pills have a pill pattern and are of excellent quality. I can decide to give you seventy-five low-grade spirit stones."

This price was within Yu Changsheng's expectations. On average, one Qi Gathering Pill cost five low-grade spirit stones, while the ordinary Qi Gathering Pills sold by rogue cultivators cost four low-grade spirit stones each, with an additional pill pattern, increasing the price by twenty-five percent.

Of course, if he wanted to earn more, he could set up a stall, but the purchasing power of independent cultivators is not high, and they like to haggle. It might take several days to sell anything, so it's not as straightforward as Yipin Pharmacy.

So Yu Changsheng nodded and replied, "Then let's go with this number. Also, please prepare three more sets of materials for me."

"Okay." Xi Wenyou gave a wink to the servant in blue beside him, who immediately went to get the materials.

He then took out sixty-five low-grade spirit stones and handed them to Yu Changsheng.

"These are your spirit stones, fellow Daoist."

Yu Changsheng took it, and was a little surprised, because the three sets of materials cost twelve low-grade spirit stones, and after deductions, there should have been sixty-three stones, but the other party gave him two extra.

Xi Wenyou smiled and said, "I rounded it down a bit, just a small token of my appreciation."

"I wonder if Youkao would consider becoming a guest alchemist at our First-Class Pharmacy and engaging in deeper cooperation with us?"
