Chapter Seventy-Ninth: Going Out to Find Dan Furnace

  Yang Tianwen was very depressed, really very depressed. He had been staying here for two days and his cultivation speed was still okay, but it wasn't as fast as before. Fortunately, the spiritual energy here was abundant, so he could keep up with his previous speed. It's just that without dual cultivation, it wasn't as comfortable or fast, how evil!

  Actually, what's most frustrating is not the speed of cultivation, but wanting to refine pills and yet having no pill furnace! Fortunately, there are still some spiritual medicines in hand.

  Nothing in hand, can only go out to find it. Yang Tian asked directly brought Xiao Bai to stroll around the street. Not just looking for Dan furnace, Yang Tian also wanted to find some trashy medicinal materials to practice his hands. It seemed that using hundred-year-old spiritual medicine to practice was a bit extravagant, because outside, selling hundred-year-old or above medicinal materials would cost dozens of low-grade spiritual stones. One low-grade spiritual stone could absorb and provide a month's worth of hard work for a cultivator in the foundation-building period or below. Dozens of them, that could be equivalent to years of bitter cultivation. For example, an ordinary closed-door cultivator, cultivating for a month can accumulate one layer of true yuan, while using low-grade spiritual stones to cultivate for a month can accumulate two layers of true yuan. That is, using low-grade spiritual stones saves a month's time compared to not using them. Spiritual stones have many uses and are very common, so they circulate as currency in the cultivation world.

  To save money, Yang Tianwen planned to buy some inferior medicinal materials to practice his skills, and once he was proficient, he would use the stored goods in the Spiritual Medicine Space to refine better spiritual pills.

  It's just as well that this is the Cultivation Realm; if it were in the mundane world, it would be impossible to even think about practicing one's skills. The Cultivation Realm indeed belongs to those who cultivate.

  To buy what is really needed, of course go to Beicheng.

  "Huh, I remember seeing a place selling dan furnaces somewhere yesterday? How come I just can't find it?" Yang Tian muttered to himself.

  Yang Tianwen walked around the streets for a while, but still couldn't find it. The vendors who were selling the artifacts two days ago were all there, and Yang Tianwen even went over to take another look. As expected, several hundred high-quality spirit stones were sold at a hard price, and two or three sets were actually sold out. It seems that there are still many rich people around.

  Yang Tian asked spent a top-grade spirit stone and specially bought a storage ring. The space was not large, similar to the compass's space in the past, but after the third level of the compass was unlocked, the compass's space expanded by more than ten times. However, Yang Tian asked was a cautious person, so he specially bought a storage ring to avoid exposing the secrets of the compass. And this storage ring wasn't cheap either.

  Yang Tianyou calculated that his property was still enough to spend, and if it really didn't work out, he could go back to his old profession and make a fortune. Money is like a turtle egg, after spending it all, one can earn more as long as they have the ability to do so.

  The things sold in the market, some of which even Yang Tianwen couldn't recognize, but it didn't matter, if you don't understand, you have to ask. Yang Tianwen came to a stall, the seller was a beautiful woman, selling all sorts of strange pellets and wooden slips.

  "What are these things?" Yang Tian asked with a humble heart.

  The female boss glanced at Yang Tian and smiled: "Fellow Taoist, you haven't been out of the mountain for long, have you?"

  Yang Tianwen didn't answer, he just looked at her expectantly, waiting for her response.

  "These things are the demon pellets." The female boss pointed at those strange bullets and continued to add, "However, in order to maintain the effectiveness of these demon pellets, they were sealed using this method, making them convenient to store."

  "These are the alchemy recipes. Nowadays, in the cultivation world, some spiritual medicines have insufficient years or are already extinct. These alchemy recipes are new ones that have been verified over thousands of years and can use different grades of demon pellets or other new spiritual medicines to replace some of the extinct precious medicinal materials." The female boss explained with a smile.

  New elixirs, the times are progressing, and of course some new elixirs have emerged, which is not surprising. It's just that these elixirs are mostly artificially cultivated, and lack certain qualities compared to those grown in the wild.

  "Oh? Since these demon pellets are sealed, how can you tell the good from the bad?" Yang Tian asked, nodding understandingly and asking again.

  "This is simple, just remove the outer seal layer and it's done. The outer seal is not anything special, just a basic non-injurious spell, a sealing technique. After saying that, he gathered a ball of clear water in his hand, picked up a bullet and put it inside, lightly operated his true yuan, and the demon core inside the bullet appeared. "The demon cores of demons, except for some special ones, are mostly similar in effect to those of the same level. First and second-level demon cores have no use, although many people sell them, they can't earn much spirit stone. The lowest level I have here is fourth-level demon core. Fourth-level demons are equivalent to human cultivators who have successfully built their foundation, so it's not easy to hunt them down. Therefore, the price of a fourth-level demon core is 3500 lower-grade spirit stones, or one upper-grade spirit stone, and I can sell you three fourth-level demon cores plus a modified new pill formula. The price of fifth-level demon cores is ten times that of fourth-level ones, sixth-level is another tenfold increase, and seventh-level demon cores are only available to those high-ranking masters in the Nascent Soul stage, which I don't have here, but the price is hundreds of times higher than sixth-level ones, possibly even priceless."

  Yang Tianwen was taken aback for a moment, the price of this demon pill is not cheap at all. After calculating, he estimated that fifth and sixth grade demon pills are probably the truly mainstream consumables. A single fifth-grade demon pill requires around 4 high-quality spirit stones, while a sixth-grade one requires as many as 40, almost equivalent to Yang Tianwen's entire net worth.

  Yang Tianwen didn't ask about the price of this pill, otherwise he wouldn't have thought so. A bottle of twenty pills made from fifth-grade demon pills, which can effectively increase the magical power of cultivators in the Dan formation period, costs 40 high-quality spirit stones!! The effect of sixth-grade demon pills is even better, but the price is over 600 high-quality spirit stones! This profit is more than ten times higher, but such precious elixirs are rare on the market.

  Not only is the cost not cheap, but also the failure rate must be calculated. Although demon pills can replace some extinct medicinal materials with another elixir, the success rate of demon pills is not as high as that of top-grade medicinal materials due to their composition or other reasons. After all, there is no perfect existence in the world. It's precisely because of this that the price of these magical power-increasing pills has always been high.

  Of course, it's not all like this. Some elixirs are still very cheap, and those sold on the market are mostly some foundation-building, injury-healing, and recovery-accelerating pills.
