Chapter 80: Ancient Beauty (Please recommend and collect ^^)
Yang Tian looked at the stall's elixirs and formulas, making calculations. Times were different now, Yang Tian knew better than anyone else the advantages and disadvantages of progress in this era. It was certain that what the female boss said was not wrong, some of the formulas recorded in "Danqi Miji" must be outdated and need to be updated, but fortunately, the "Dandao Pian" chapter in "Danqi Miji" contained some top-notch elixir formulas and refining methods for reference only. What was truly formidable was the Dan reason!
What is Dan Li? It's very simple, any spiritual medicine or wonderful medicine is made by combining various medicinal materials and then extracting and fusing their essence through the best method. The world's spiritual medicines are diverse and varied in shape and growth, but fundamentally they have similar medicinal properties. For example, some are cold-natured, some are hot, some are warm, some are dry... just like people with different personalities. When combined, they can replace each other or produce extraordinary effects. Even highly toxic poisonous weeds can be used to refine and enhance the benefits of Dan medicine. The recipes for immortal medicines and spiritual medicines serve as a textbook and model, not for practitioners to follow in order to refine them, but rather for them to analyze and understand their medicinal properties and combinations.
Yang Tianwen's comprehension level is high, and he has an extreme interest in these things, as well as a natural talent. He learns with a near-fanatical passion. He excels at using rational thinking to analyze this knowledge, making his learning twice as effective. Of course, the more exquisite and mysterious the alchemy method, the higher the success rate and the quality of the elixir obtained. The same materials given to two different people for refining, one may fail, while the other may produce a top-grade immortal elixir. The most important thing is still the refining method. The "Dan Dao Pian" records many alchemy methods, but currently, the one suitable for Yang Tianwen is the general method of using a dan furnace in conjunction with furnace fire to melt and refine at high temperatures. This method is the simplest, yet also the most difficult. Its difficulty lies in controlling the fire mouth.
"If you buy more, I'll give you more of this pill, how about that?" The female boss proposed with a smile.
Yang Tianwen was taken aback for a moment, unexpectedly this beauty is quite good at doing business, thought for a moment and said: "I don't know if the boss has any dan furnaces for sale?"
"Alchemical furnace? Which kind of alchemical furnace do you want? I never sell low-quality goods, and my alchemical furnaces are at least top-grade products that require ten superior spirit stones." The beautiful boss said proudly.
"Ten top-grade spirit stones? Isn't that a bit expensive? High-quality goods, just how high-quality?" Yang Tian asked strangely.
The beautiful woman suddenly took out a brilliant and flashing dan furnace, which had three legs standing upright, a green body, and a lid carved with auspicious beasts. The body of the furnace was engraved with a gathering spirit formation, and there was a protruding block at the bottom that could be used to ignite or control fire. What's more, under the flashing light, it seemed extraordinary. Yang Tian asked in surprise, "This dan furnace seems to be an extreme treasure, right? It should have reached the level of a tenth-grade treasure, only slightly inferior to a spiritual instrument." According to the price of high-ranking talismans, which could move for hundreds of top-grade spirit stones, ten top-grade spirit stones weren't very expensive. However...
"I don't understand, why would a tenth-grade treasure furnace only sell for ten top-grade spirit stones?" Yang Tian asked in puzzlement.
"Hey, you think this dan furnace can protect your life and attack enemies? Nowadays, fewer and fewer cultivators know how to refine pills. Dan furnaces are in oversupply, their value is decreasing day by day. If you like it, I'll give you a 20% discount, just pay me eight top-grade spirit stones. Since you're also a fellow pill-refiner, I'll sell it cheaply to you." The beautiful boss sighed.
Yang Tianwen was originally looking for a dan furnace, and he thought that finding an intermediate-level treasure would be enough. But now that he had encountered a top-level treasure, it was the best outcome possible. Refining pills required precision work, so naturally, the higher the quality of the hardware, the better. He took out eight high-quality spirit stones on the spot and handed them over, saying: "Then thank you."
"Hehe ~~ Not bad, since you're my first customer today, I'll give you a free Dan Fang." The beautiful boss casually handed Yang Tianwen a wooden slip.
"Thank you so much, boss." Yang Tian replied politely.
"My name is Gu Yan, I think you look quite pleasing to the eye. Come back later and I'll give you a special discount, huh? Basically, as long as it's available on the market, there's nothing that I, Gu Yan, can't get my hands on. Even if you want a seventh-grade demon pellet, as long as you're willing to pay the price, maybe I can even help you get one." Gu Yan batted her eyelashes and said with a sly smile, "Come come come, take a look at these fourth-grade demon pellets, absolutely guaranteed quality, no cheating. Want to buy some more?" She kept pushing Yang Tianwen to buy this and that.
As a result, Yang Tian asked dazedly and took out more than a dozen top-grade spirit stones again, buying a lot of fourth-grade demon pellets and some fifth-grade demon pellets, and also getting many free pill formulas.
Yang Tianwen couldn't help but smile wryly when he came to his senses, this beauty named Gu Yan was quite good at doing business, the main reason was that Xiao Bai had been clamoring for these demon pellets. Yang Tianwen bought some more ordinary herbs and left Beicheng. After a trip to Beicheng, Yang Tianwen's family wealth suddenly shrunk by half, sighing about this world, it's really... Sighing: Money is not the problem, the problem is having no money!
"Boss, I want to eat those demon pellets. I want to eat, I want to eat..." Xiao Bai kept echoing in Yang Tianwen's mind.
Yang Tian asked, "Alright, alright, I understand. Don't destroy it anymore, eating it like this would be too wasteful. Let me study it and refine it into a pill, wouldn't that bring out its greatest effect? This way, you can eat it, but I won't be able to touch it."
Xiao Bai was still very well-behaved, quietly calming down, and finally said: "I want half of it!" Then closed his eyes and lay still.
Yang Tianwen was very depressed, but he had managed to find a tenth-level treasure furnace, which was quite lucky! After checking, it seemed that everything that needed to be prepared had been prepared, but somehow something still felt missing. Ah, yes, the spiritual water for refining elixirs.
Yang Tianwen turned around and bought about a liter of Clear Spirit Water, which was actually a mountain spring that nurtured spiritual energy. In the Cultivation Realm, it was relatively common and had various uses such as drinking, alchemy, and equipment refinement. The price wasn't expensive either.
