Chapter One Hundred and One: Mandarin Duck Dragon Phoenix Tripod

  The lovely young girl who had just entertained Ye Xu and the others quickly walked out from inside, came to the middle-aged woman's face, and said a few words in a low voice.

  The woman's face turned gloomy and she said to Ye Xu: "Sorry, I don't have the Nine Turns Primordial Skill in my Treasure Pavilion..."

  She paused, and with an expectant face, smiled: "Although there is no Nine Turns Primordial Merit, other types of heart methods, our Treasure Gathering Pavilion has many. Moreover, in our Treasure Gathering Pavilion, there are countless treasures, witch soldiers, various precious materials, if you can take out a few more East Sea Dragon Pearl, it's fine to exchange them for witch treasure!"

  Ye Xuhuai felt a little disappointed and shook his head, saying: "The way of the heart is something that can't be rushed. Moreover, I still can't use this kind of thing like Wu Bao." The implication was that he didn't think much of things like Wu Bing.

  The woman thought carefully and indeed, many of the Five Poison Sect's disciples practiced Gu worms. The Gu worms were comparable to voodoo soldiers, but more intuitive to control than voodoo soldiers.

  Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen exchanged a glance, and the two of them whispered to each other: "These night pearls, are they really worth that much? Can they actually be exchanged for a Wu Bao-level treasure?"

  Fang Chen did not expect this result either, and said somewhat gloomily: "At the beginning in the Five Poisons Temple, Shao Bao was the first to take action, and half of these Night Pearls fell into his hands."

  Zhou Da Hu Zi was also extremely depressed. At first, they didn't fight for the East Sea Mermaid Pearl in the Five Poison Cave Mansion. Half of it was because they feared Ye Xu would play a dirty trick on them, and half of it was because they didn't take these pearls to heart, thinking they were just toys. Who knew that Ye Xu would get away with such a huge advantage?

  The middle-aged woman retrieved her true yuan, and the East Sea Mermaid Pearl gradually became smaller, being grasped in her hand. Without mentioning returning it to Ye Xu, she smiled and said: "You all may take a look around, perhaps you'll see something that suits your taste." After speaking, she threw a glance at the lovely young girl beside her, and whispered: "Take good care of these esteemed guests, pick out some items that they fancy. No matter what, we must keep this East Sea Mermaid Pearl; otherwise, I will hold you responsible!"

  Ye Xiu heard it in his ear, and secretly smiled in his heart. In his opinion, the East Sea Dragon Palace Pearl was extremely mysterious, but its effect was not great, it was just a decorative lighting tool, at most taken out to show off to others.

  The lovely young girl stuck out her tongue, hastily led Ye Xuan and others upstairs, and smiled: "Several distinguished guests please follow me, the downstairs are some rough toys, only the upstairs is my treasure trove."

  Ye Xu and others followed her upstairs. A young girl saw that Gong Yang was still standing in the same place, dazed and distracted, and smiled: "Old man, please go upstairs."

  Gong Yang suddenly came back to his senses, hastily following Ye Xu, and secretly thought: "I used to enter the Treasure Gathering Hall, but these Baifeng Palace girls never looked at me with respect. The second floor of the Treasure Gathering Hall is a place that only opens to noble guests, I've only heard about it but never had the chance to go in. Now being called 'old master' and invited in by them is also my first time! Usually these women are polite to customers, but they all have an air of arrogance. Today, they're humble and asking for favors, which is also a first! Ye and his brothers are indeed high-ranking disciples of the Five Poisons Sect, with great wealth and prestige, and it's even rubbing off on me!"

  Ye Xue walked to the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion, and suddenly a strong and murderous aura came face to face. The second floor was divided into separate compartments, one of which had crystal cabinets, inside which were rows of witchcraft weapons, with strange and varied shapes, and the strong and murderous aura emanated from these witchcraft weapons.

  The quality of the witches here is indeed better than those downstairs!

  In this treasure house, several elegantly dressed wizards were browsing around, looking for their favorite weapons, each accompanied by a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Palace, introducing the characteristics of the magic soldiers.

  Those who can enter here to choose Wu Bing, at least are solid yuan period cultivation, and everyone's strength is not to be underestimated.

  One of the men in green clothes looked up and saw Ye Xu and others, noticing the beggar behind Ye Xu, slightly furrowing his brow, displeased: "Xiao Yu sister, when did your Treasure Gathering Pavilion start doing business with beggars? Aren't you afraid of disgracing the reputation of your Treasure Gathering Pavilion?"

  The young girl's face changed slightly, and she said: "Mr. Jiang, these are honored guests of my Treasure Gathering Pavilion, please show some respect when speaking!"

  That young master Jiang suddenly opened his folding fan with a whoosh, slightly swinging it as he coldly sneered: "Honorable guests? One is an old mountain goat from Qingfeng Ridge, and the others are obviously newly rich people from the countryside. Are such people also considered honorable guests? Little Jade, I'm worried that you've been deceived!"

  "New rich?"

  Fang Chen also opened his folding fan with a snap, his posture was a hundred times more elegant than his, and he smiled lightly: "This brother, are you talking about yourself?"

  Unlike Zhou Shiwen's bandit-like aura and Ye Xu's calmness, Fang Chen was well-read in poetry and books, and had a natural elegance and refinement in his demeanor.

  All the way, Ye Xuan encountered unfamiliar things, and he could say something about them. This point even made Ye Xuan have to admire him, feeling inferior to him.

  In comparison, that young master Jiang suddenly looked like a toad, unbearable to look at. Even the girls accompanying him and other guests couldn't help but glance repeatedly at Fang Chen, their eyes shining with starry light.

  Zhou Shiwen burst out laughing and said: "Compared to Xiao Bailian's fair skin, you still have a long way to go!"

  Jiang Gongzi's eyes gleamed with a fierce light, staring fixedly at them, suppressing his anger as he said: "Xiao Yu Jie, please have these few good-for-nothings thrown out!"

  The young girl said faintly: "Mr. Jiang, Treasure Gathering Pavilion does not welcome you, please leave on your own."

  Jiang Gongzi was stunned, seemingly unable to believe his ears. He was both shocked and furious, and said viciously: "You bunch of women at the Jewelry Store can still do business in Qingzhou only because my Jiang family is taking care of you? For these few country bumpkins and an old swindler, you actually dare to drive me away? Does your Jewelry Store still want to continue operating in Qingzhou..."

  That young girl was also enraged, and with a swing of her sleeve, a burst of yuanqi suddenly wrapped him up and threw him out the window, coldly snorting: "Even your family's master Jiang Gongyi wouldn't dare say something like that, go back and reflect on yourself!"

  Having said that, the girl clapped her hands and sneered: "You cheap person! You want to force me to use violence!"

  Ye Xue's eyes revealed a different color, that Jiang Gongzi was at least in the solid yuan period of cultivation, but unexpectedly, he didn't even have the ability to fight back in front of this young girl, it can be seen that her cultivation is even higher.

  His eyes were sharp and had already seen that the girl had thrown Jiang Gongzi out with a very unusual technique, his primordial spirit rushed into his body, suppressing his primordial energy and primordial spirit, then threw Jiang Gongzi like a voodoo doll out of the window!

  "The Baihua Palace is indeed worthy of being the founder of a sect in Qingzhou, its martial arts are extremely unique. Even a young girl who does chores has such cultivation, she's only a few years older than Qiaoqiao, yet her cultivation has reached the Solid Yuan stage. The world is vast, and masters emerge one after another, I indeed can't be narrow-minded like before!"

  A lovely young girl smiled sweetly and said, "Have any of you seen a bewitching soldier who has captured your heart?"

  Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled: "Xiao Yu sister, these witchcraft things are not even in our eyes, dare to ask if there are other witch treasures in the gathering treasure hall?"

  That lovely young girl also knew there would be this result, and walked into another room, laughing: "This is the Dan furnace room. If you gentlemen want to refine the elixir, don't hesitate to choose a good stove. Our stoves come in all shapes and sizes, all made from the finest refined copper, even if placed at the mouth of a volcano they won't melt."

  Ye Xue looked over and saw that inside were placed several alchemy furnaces, some were stoves, some were cauldrons, and there were also a few Taoist priests selecting them.

  He didn't know the good or bad of Dan furnace, but in the Five Poisons Classic, there were several extremely strange pill formulas, all of which were beast transformation pills. He had an idea and said, "It's also good to be a nouveau riche. Little Jade sister, which Dan furnace is the most expensive?"

  The young girl's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly walked to the front of a large bronze cauldron, smiling: "It's this pair of mandarin duck and dragon phoenix cauldrons! The material used in this cauldron adds two taels of Wannian Xuan Tong, using the Feng Huo Liang Zhen..."

  She had not finished introducing herself when Ye Xu waved his sleeve and sent the large cauldron into the Jade Building, saying decisively: "I'll take it!"

  The young girl cheered, but soon became somewhat melancholy, thinking to herself: "Although the Mandarin Duck and Dragon Phoenix Tripod is precious, it's still not worth a single East Sea Mermaid Pearl..."

  An old man standing next to him, watching the tripod, saw Ye Xuan's lavish and rough behavior, only buying the most expensive ones, not the best ones, without even blinking an eye. He then bought the Mandarin Duck Dragon Phoenix Tripod and shook his head, saying: "Amateur..."

  Zhou Shiwen chuckled and said, "Shaobao, now that you've learned the art of alchemy, we'll have a good fortune. I'm going to take the pills you refine and eat them like sugar beans, it's really nourishing!"

  The old man heard this and shook his head again: "Two silly birds..."

  "This old gentleman is a guest of the Liang Wang Fu, his name is Ouyang Jing."

  "Mr. Ouyang, is there something wrong with the Mandarin Duck and Dragon Phoenix Tripod?" Ye Xu asked.

  Ouyang Jing raised his head and looked at him, shaking his head: "The tripod is indeed not a problem, it's made of the finest materials, including a few heavy pieces of Wannian Xuan Tong. That cauldron has a dark red color and a thick texture, just by looking at it you can tell that its original owner had reached the third dan boundary of the Dan Ding period, but he didn't intend to use it for alchemy, instead, he used it as a furnace tripod to cultivate his yuan dan, so originally it was a witch treasure!"

  He sighed and said, "Unfortunately, its original owner failed to condense the yuan dan and died. This witch treasure was also shaken by the explosion of yuan qi, losing all its spiritual energy and becoming a useless cauldron, only considered as a witch soldier. More importantly, it's precisely because a few taels of thousand-year-old mysterious copper were added. With your cultivation, you can't even activate it, even if you cultivate to the third true realm, condense true fire, it would only be used to heat the bottom of the cauldron, don't even think about refining dan medicine. You're not a rookie, what are you?"

  The origin of this tripod is unclear even to the young girl, but Ouyang Jing can tell its origin by observation, which is indeed impressive.

  As for why Zhou Shiwen is called a rookie, Ouyang Jing doesn't even bother to explain.

  Ye Xuheng's heart skipped a beat as he had seen the master of the Luan family, Luan Tianhe, make a move before. Luan Tianhe's cultivation was at the Three Dan Realm, Dan Ding stage, and he had refined a furnace tripod. The power was extremely terrifying, not only did it subdue the terrifying witchcraft "Yu She Gui Hua Da Fa", but also almost sucked in Eagle Sir into the tripod!

  He never thought that the dragon and phoenix tripod he bought casually would be a furnace used by a Dan Ding period wizard to condense the original dan!
