298: 211 Corpse Pearl (None today)_1 298: 211 Corpse Pearl (None today)_1 “No, I made the acquaintance of your kinfolk years ago at the Wang Family of Begonia Valley.”
Shen Long explained.
Zhou Yuliang suddenly realized and didn’t say much else.
The five of them sat in the Stone Pavilion, sipping tea and chatting idly, primarily discussing the art of Alchemy.
“With a high-level Spirit Fla in hand, the efficiency of alchemy improves significantly.
Fairy Ye, being a descendant of Senior Ye, you must have a high-level Spirit Fla, right?”
Lin Qing asked curiously.
Ye Hongyao smiled wryly, shook her head, and said, “No, Spiritual Fires are too rare.
Let alone high-level Spirit Flas, I don’t even have a second-order Spirit Fla.”
“The Fire Spirit Qi is abundant in Myriad Fla Valley.
I’ve heard that soone found a third-order Spirit Fla there.”
Zhou Yuliang said.
“That’s true, but Myriad Fla Valley is too dangerous.
There are too many Fire Attribute Monster Beasts, countless in number and with no small asure of Divine Skills, rather tricky to deal with.
Who knows how many cultivators have perished in Myriad Fla Valley.”
By the end of her statent, Ye Hongyao’s face had grown increasingly solemn.
Shen Long nodded and said, “Indeed!
If it weren’t for the sheer number of Fire Attribute Monster Beasts in Myriad Fla Valley, I too would like to make the trip.”
It was unnecessary; he wouldn’t go to Myriad Fla Valley since he currently didn’t lack cultivation resources.
Cultivators in the Core Formation Stage ca in one after another, joining their discussion, primarily exchanging knowledge on the art of Alchemy, including the conventional fire-based thods as well as water system alchemy.
Shen Long wasn’t interested in water-based alchemy.
With his Spirit Fla, fire-based alchemy would play more to his strengths.
Half an hour later, over thirty alchemists had gathered in the pavilion.
These alchemists hailed from all corners of the world, and together they exchanged alchemical knowledge, coming up with all sorts of ingenious ideas and improvents to Pill Formulas.
“It’s too difficult to improve ancient Pill Formulas.
Without a large amount of materials for Alchemy, there’s no way to research and create new Pill Formulas.”
Zhao Feng said.
“Let’s move on to the next session, an exchange of goods!”
Ye Hongyao suggested.
Shen Long and the others agreed, as they were also eager to exchange for the items they needed.
Ye Hongyao brought out dozens of items, mostly Elixirs, and also many Spiritual dicines that were five or six hundred years old.
She wanted to exchange them for fire attribute Spiritual dicines and Spirit Fruits.
The cultivators each presented their items for Ye Hongyao to inspect, but Shen Long did not take any action.
One after another, the Core Formation cultivators brought out items to exchange, but only a few succeeded.
After a short while, Shen Long stood up, taking out dozens of items, mostly third-order Demon Cores, along with so Elixirs and Spiritual dicines.
“Taoist Friend Shen, what kind of Demon Core is in that green jade box?”
Zhou Yuliang pointed to a green jade box and asked, noticing two golden Demon Cores inside.
“These are the inner cores of third-order Golden-Eyed Beasts!
I’ll exchange for materials of equivalent value.”
Shen Long said.
“Taoist Friend Shen, I’ll trade you a bottle of Golden Hao Pills for these two Demon Cores, how about it?
This pill has a great detoxification effect and is a superior grade Elixir.”
Zhou Yuliang communicated telepathically.
“I can also refine similar Elixirs, and I’m not lacking in ordinary Spiritual dicines.
To kill these two Golden-Eyed Beasts, I nearly lost my life.”
Shen Long replied telepathically.
As rarity commands a premium, Zhou Yuliang was interested in the Golden-Eyed Beasts’ inner cores, and Shen Long surely wouldn’t just exchange them on a whim.
“What if I offer eight hundred year-old Golden Moon Reishi Mushrooms?”
Zhou Yuliang communicated telepathically.
Shen Long shook his head resolutely.
Being from the Zhou Family, Zhou Yuliang surely had valuable items on him.
After pondering for a mont, Zhou Yuliang pulled out a golden jade box and handed it over to Shen Long.
“I’ll trade you a Corpse Pearl from the body of a late-stage Core Formation Corpse King for it,” he said.
“That should suffice, right?”
“Corpse Pearl!”
Shen Long was sowhat tempted.
As far as he knew, Corpse Kings at or above the Core Formation Stage would nurture Corpse Pearls within their bodies which were sowhat similar to the Demon Cores of Monster Beasts.
A Corpse King would be greatly weakened and lose a significant portion of its strength without its Corpse Pearl.
For Body Cultivators, a Corpse Pearl was an exceptional tonic that could be consud as a Miracle Elixir to bolster the physical body, slowly enhancing the cultivator’s physical strength.
“Yes, this is a Corpse Pearl from the body of a late-stage Core Formation Corpse King.
I have already soaked it in Spiritual Liquid to remove the toxicity, you only need to swallow it directly, and it will gradually strengthen your body.
I originally intended to keep it for my descendants,” Zhou Yuliang explained.
Shen Long opened the jade box.
Inside lay a golden orb the size of a pigeon’s egg.
Picking up the golden orb, he could feel a trendous energy from within, identical to what was described in the ancient texts.
He nodded in agreent, consenting to the trade, and handed over the green jade box to Zhou Yuliang.
“Taoist Friend Shen, I’d like to exchange these Profound Cold True Water for those three Demon Cores.”
Lin Qing took out a green gourd and handed it to Shen Long, pointing at a blue jade box.
Inside the blue jade box were three water-blue Demon Cores, their surfaces marked with natural silver patterns.
Shen Long pulled the stopper from the gourd, and a frigid blast burst forth.
He nodded and agreed to the exchange.
Most of the third-tier Demon Cores that Shen Long had brought were now traded, and he had acquired quite a few resources.
“Taoist Friend Shen, if I may be so bold to ask, did you hunt all these Monster Beasts yourself?” inquired Ye Hongyao curiously.
The third-tier Demon Cores that Shen Long had offered were nurous and varied, with many Monster Beasts she had never heard of.
“That’s not the case.
I traded for them with Elixirs,” Shen Long flatly denied.
He knew all too well that without the Nine Curves Demon Tempting Scent, he wouldn’t have been able to hunt so many third-tier Monster Beasts.
Ye Hongyao was skeptical but did not press further.
After the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea, the trading was completed, and the cultivators left one by one.
Shen Long approached the entrance to a nine-story tall green pavilion.
The signboard read “Qixia Pavilion,” a shop operated by the Qixia Alliance.
He walked in, and after a short while, Shen Long erged and returned to his residence.
He entered a secret chamber and stepped into the Spirit Control Tower, arriving at the third floor.
Shen Long reached the foot of a high peak, not far from a cave he strode into.
After walking a hundred paces or so, he entered a cave a mu in size with a pool approximately ten zhang in size at the lower left corner, seemingly empty and smoke-like.
The pool was made of stone.
Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and over a hundred white Formation Flags flew out, hovering in mid-air.
He had specifically purchased a set of third-tier, Profound Ice Cultivation Formation, planning to transform the cave for cultivating Ice Attribute Spiritual dicines.
Shen Long’s spells shifted, and the banners on over a hundred Formation Flags shone with a blinding white light before inserting themselves into the rock walls.
He took out three white Array Plates and placed mid-grade Spirit Stones into the grooves on their surfaces.
Next, he produced a white Pentagonal Array Disk, struck it with a spell, and a surge of white mist erupted from the ground.
The rock walls and floor began to ice over, and within less than five breaths, the cave had turned into an ice cavern, chillingly cold.
Shen Long took out a green gourd, walked over to the pool, and removed the stopper.
With a shake, a large amount of Profound Cold True Water filled the pool.
He introduced five white lotuses into the water.
Ice Snow Lotus—those over six hundred years old were the key ingredients for crafting the Ice Snow Pill, highly effective against fire poison, and such Spiritual dicines could only grow in Profound Cold True Water.
Shen Long stepped out, sealed the entrance to the cave, and instructed the Tree Person to guard the place diligently before leaving the Spirit Control Tower.
