Since he had succeeded, Ye Tianfan put away the elixir and decided to refine a few more times, turning all the remaining medicinal materials into elixirs.

  It's also unknown whether it was because of this alchemy method being really good, but Ye Tianfan successfully refined all the pills that followed, and not a single one failed, with a success rate of 100%, refining a total of 105 Foundation Establishment Pills.

  The refined medicine leaves Ye Tianfan decided to sell them all tomorrow, and see how he would be evaluated. He also planned to buy some other medicinal materials needed for the alchemy formula.

  The next day, Ye Tianfan came to the market again. The stalls here were still bustling as usual, but Ye Tianfan didn't plan to go shopping for now. After all, the medicinal materials he wanted to buy were not allowed to be sold at these stalls, and only available in the shops inside.

  This time Ye Tianfan did not choose the one he went back to, but chose another one of the two shops. After all, Ye Tianfan didn't want to go to that shop with such a bad attitude again.

  Ye Tianfan entered the store and found it more lively than the last one, with more people coming to buy things. It seemed that this store's business was better than the previous one where he had bought things before.

  Ye Tianfan had just entered the shop when the shopkeeper warmly welcomed him, while the two young shop assistants were busy moving things around in another corner, clearly very busy, and the task of attending to customers was left solely to the shopkeeper himself.

  "Does this young brother need to buy something? The prices of the goods in our store are absolutely fair and trustworthy, you can rest assured to make a purchase." The shopkeeper said enthusiastically to Ye Tianfan.

  Ye Tianfan also replied, "Hmm, judging from the thriving business here, I had already guessed it. However, shopkeeper, this time I came not to buy things, but to sell them. I hope you can make an exception."

  The shopkeeper still said enthusiastically: "I don't know what the young brother wants to sell, but our store is very fair whether it's selling or buying things."

  Ye Tianfan said: "I've recently refined some foundation-building pills and I hope to sell them here, but I don't know how to price them?"

  When Ye Tianfan said it was to sell Zhuji Dan, the enthusiasm of this shopkeeper suddenly decreased a lot. However, for the sake of professional ethics, this shopkeeper still patiently said: "Zhuji Dan is 200 spiritual stones per piece, I don't know how many pieces you have?" In the mind of this shopkeeper, Ye Tianfan having twenty pieces would be pretty good, and twenty pieces would only be worth four thousand spiritual stones at most. It was just a small business after all.

  "Uh, I have a total of 105 grains. You need to give me 21,000 spirit stones. Can you exchange the spirit stones for the medicinal pills written on the prescription above? If it's not enough, I'll give you more spirit stones."

  "What, over a hundred pellets? How is that possible? Hurry up and show me!" the shopkeeper said anxiously. It's no wonder he was anxious, as normally, an alchemist would only produce ten pellets at most in one furnace, which means to produce a hundred pellets, they would need to refine at least ten times.

  But this ten times is far from accurate, because it doesn't take into account the failure of alchemy. If you count that in, at least twenty times or more are needed, and generally a dan maker can only make seven or eight pills per furnace, so on top of twenty times, there's still room for increase.

  As for the time, generally speaking, others take about 7 or 8 hours to refine a furnace of foundation-building pills. In other words, under normal circumstances, one person can only refine one furnace at most. Calculating this way, it would take at least several months to refine these medicinal pills.

  However, the shopkeeper knew that some people had a high success rate and fast alchemy speed. Those were the people with exceptional alchemy talent. What the shopkeeper cared about wasn't the Foundation Establishment Pill, but rather Ye Tianfan, the person who was refining it.

  Ye Tianfan took out the jade bottle filled with elixirs and handed it to the shopkeeper, saying: "Each of these three jade bottles contains thirty-five elixirs, so be careful when you check them."

  The shopkeeper didn't mind Ye Tianfan's words, but instead picked out one of the pills and examined it carefully. The shopkeeper found that the elixir refined by Ye Tianfan was greatly different from ordinary elixirs, the most obvious difference being the crystal clear appearance of the elixir.

  This appearance means that the shopkeeper is extremely clear, which means that almost all impurities of these dan medicines have been removed, and the proportion of various medicinal ingredients in the dan medicine has reached an almost perfect level.

  To confirm whether these elixirs really have a miraculous effect, the shopkeeper carefully asked Ye Tianfan: "Young brother, may I try the medicinal properties of this elixir?"

  "Of course, I've already decided to sell it to you, what you want to do with it is your freedom, I won't interfere." Ye Tianfan said matter-of-factly.

  Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's affirmative answer, the shopkeeper didn't care about the occasion anymore and sat down cross-legged before swallowing that dan medicine.

  After taking this Dan medicine, the master of the Golden Elixir period suddenly felt that his cultivation had grown slightly, it was simply unbelievable. To know that this Dan medicine was prepared for the cultivators who had not yet built their foundation in the Refining Qi period, but it still had a slight improvement on his own cultivation. If it were taken by a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment period, the effect would certainly be even better.

  At this thought, the shopkeeper suddenly gazed at Ye Tianfan with scorching eyes, as if he wanted to swallow him whole, making Ye Tianfan feel a wave of discomfort.

  The shopkeeper tidied up his thoughts and politely said to Ye Tianfan: "Young brother, I want to auction off these dan medicines of yours at the exchange meeting. What do you think, fellow daoist? Additionally, I can offer a discount of half the cost of the medicinal materials for refining dan medicine for free, as long as you sell the refined dan medicine to our shop."

  Ye Tianfan was confused by the shopkeeper's sudden politeness, and now he heard that the shopkeeper wanted to auction off the medicine and even offered to give him half of the cost of the medicine for free. He really didn't know what kind of medicine the shopkeeper was selling in his gourd.

  Actually, Ye Tianfan didn't know that the shopkeeper's intention was still for his own benefit as a Dan-refiner. After all, even if the foundation-establishing pill was precious, it was just a foundation-establishing pill. However, for someone with talent like Ye Tianfan, providing some support was completely worthwhile.

  Ye Tianfan had not yet come back to his senses when the shopkeeper said, "Actually, I'm doing this for myself. After all, although I am the shopkeeper of this store, I am not the owner here. I am just a manager sent by our master, and this store is just one of our master's subsidiary stores. We will provide you with many precious medicinal materials. How about it? Do you agree?" Afraid that Ye Tianfan would not agree, the shopkeeper had to bring out his own master.

  Ye Tianfan did not answer immediately, but after considering the gains and losses, he found that he would not lose anything, and he indeed needed a lot of medicinal materials to practice alchemy.

  Moreover, if he agreed, he would also get some medicinal materials that the shops wouldn't normally sell outside, which was a great benefit. Thinking of this, Ye Tianfan nodded his head in agreement.

  When Ye Tianfan agreed, the shopkeeper was overjoyed and said to Ye Tianfan: "Young brother, I don't even know your name yet. My name is Lin Zhongfu, you can just call me Manager Lin from now on."

  Ye Tianfan also replied: "I am Ye Tianfan, an inner disciple. If you have something to discuss, you can find me at the residence of the inner disciples."

  "Ah, I will, Xiao Er, quickly bring the medicinal herbs that Ye brother needs." Lin Zhongfu said happily and called over Xiao Er to prepare the medicinal herbs needed by Ye Tianfan.

  A moment later, the shopkeeper brought over the medicinal herbs Ye Tianfan needed. After taking them in hand, he handed them to Ye Tianfan and said: "All the medicinal herbs you need are here, take a look."

  Ye Tianfan took a look and found that he had indeed found all the medicinal materials he needed, so he nodded and said: "Well, since everything is fine now, I'll be off."

  "Alright, you can go slowly, I'll notify you when the auction starts, and you can come take a look then. Of course, you can also wait until after the auction ends and I'll have the Ling Stone sent to you."

  Ye Tianfan nodded and left after indicating he understood.
