Chapter 28 Elixir Recipe

Xiao Lin only had less than 200 low-grade spirit stones on him. Although he was very interested in the third Wind Cicada Blade, he could only give up helplessly. The price was far beyond his budget.

"I want this Seven Blades Slashing Magical Weapon." After thinking about it, Xiao Lin reluctantly gave up the Wind Cicada Blade and chose the mid-level magic weapon. Even if he only chose this mid-level magic weapon, Xiao Lin's newly accumulated value instantly returned to zero, which made him feel painful.

However, thinking about the large area of ​​Spirit Mist Grass and Rejuvenating Flowers in his Spirit Wood Space, he was relieved again. As long as he could improve his cultivation level, the magic weapon would naturally not be a problem.

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately took a cloth bag from Xiao Lin with joy, opened it and took a brief look, and then put it away with satisfaction. When Xiao Lin saw the storage bag hanging around the woman's waist, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.

"I would like to ask, in the whole Wuyin Immortal City, do you know where to buy the recipe for the elixir?" After thinking for a while, Xiao Lin asked. He had been walking around the market in the east of the city for a long time. He saw someone selling the elixir, but he had never seen the recipe for it. He also asked some monks who set up stalls, but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Either they didn't know, or they looked like they wanted to say something but hesitated.

The woman was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she said in surprise: "Could it be that the little brother is also an alchemist?"

"I am just very interested in alchemy. It happened that I got two spiritual herbs recently, and I want to study the art of alchemy." Xiao Lin said casually.

"I see, but I still want to remind you, brother, that being an alchemist is not an easy job. Beginners need to invest a huge amount of resources. The probability of failure in the early stage of alchemy can be described as terrifying. Ten furnaces of elixirs may not produce one furnace. I have met many cultivators who think they are worth a lot of money. Many of them are even from big cultivation families. They dream of becoming alchemy masters one day, but they go bankrupt within half a year. Once they become poor, you should think twice."

"I just want to study it, but I may not make it myself. And knowing the recipe of the elixir will help me to be targeted when I collect spiritual herbs and medicines in the Tianlu Mountains." Xiao Lin smiled and said.

"Well, that makes sense. However, in general, apart from two or three main ingredients, the rest of the ingredients for refining elixirs are not difficult to find. In fact, it is not difficult for little brother to find elixir recipes. There is a Yaowang shop two streets away from our Lingduan Building. You can buy some elixir recipes there, but most of them are low-level elixir recipes. It is more difficult to buy elixir recipes that are suitable for high-level Qi refining or even foundation building. Except for Dancao Mountain in the five major sects, I am afraid that only a few elixir-specializing businesses in Xueling Fairy City have them.

Hearing this, Xiao Lin nodded. He had heard of Xueling Fairy City, which was located in the north of Tianlu Mountain Range and bordered the Wanli Snow Plain. The underground cave where the purple spirit flowers needed to be picked to join the five major sects were located was located in the Wanli Snow Plain.

However, for Xiao Lin now, he had no intention of picking purple spirit flowers. In his opinion, he would have to wait until he could cultivate to the late stage of Qi Refining before he could enter the underground cave, and he didn't know when that would happen.

"However, if the little brother can really refine the elixir, our Lingduan Building is willing to pay a high price to buy it." As if she had thought of something, the woman suddenly said.

"Oh? Aren't you specialized in magic tools? Why do you want elixir too? "Xiao Lin had a surprised look on his face.

"Haha, we do specialize in the sale of magic tools, but we are all cultivators. As long as we are cultivators, there will be a lot of demand for elixirs. The scarcity of elixirs is not only due to the depletion of the main medicinal materials, but more importantly, the number of alchemists is also very small. This has also led to the situation that elixirs have always been in a situation where there is a price but no market. As long as elixirs flow into the market, they are basically sold out immediately. Regardless of whether the little brother will try to make elixirs himself, as long as there are finished elixirs, our Lingduan Building is willing to purchase them at a price 20% higher than the market price. "

"I see. "Xiao Lin nodded. In the East City Market, Xiao Lin had seen someone selling the Lingdan. Indeed, a bunch of people gathered around the Lingdan. The atmosphere was tense for the Lingdan. If there were no patrolling guards in the East City Market, those people would probably fight over the ownership of the Lingdan.

After leaving the Lingduan Building, Xiao Lin followed the woman's instructions and crossed two streets. As expected, he saw a relatively ordinary shop. There were countless such shops in Wuyin Xiancheng, but the business of this Yaowang Shop seemed to be surprisingly good. People came and went, and many cultivators came in and out. Most of the cultivators who came out had satisfied expressions on their faces, which surprised Xiao Lin. Curious, he walked into the King of Medicine Shop.

As soon as he entered the shop, he was greeted by a strong smell of herbs. Xiao Lin walked in without paying any attention. He saw a counter at the back of the shop, and behind the counter were jade boxes. At first glance, it was no different from the herbal medicine shop he had seen in the village, but the boxes used to hold the medicine here were not ordinary wooden boxes, but jade boxes. Most of the spiritual medicines used by cultivators carry spiritual energy. Although the degree of spiritual energy is not the same, the reason why the spiritual medicine is effective quickly is mostly due to the spiritual energy contained in it, and ordinary wooden boxes cannot prevent the dissipation of spiritual energy, so most of the spiritual pills and herbs are stored in jade bottles and jade boxes.

After looking around for a while, Xiao Lin saw that most of the cultivators who came in were buying some spiritual medicines for treating internal injuries, detoxification, and bone repair. This is not difficult to understand. For the large number of low-level cultivators in Wuyin Xiancheng, most of their spiritual stones come from the Tianlu Mountains. Whether it is collecting spiritual herbs and flowers, looking for rare minerals, or hunting monsters, there are great risks, especially when encountering some powerful monsters. After a big battle, injuries and poisoning are inevitable. This has led to many such medicine shops in Wuyin Xiancheng, and most of them are doing very good business.

After looking for half an hour, Xiao Lin did not see the pill formula or spiritual pill he wanted, and he couldn't help frowning.

"My fellow Taoist, you have been looking here for a long time. Didn't you find the pill you want? I wonder what pill you want?" A voice came from the side. Xiao Lin turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a coarse cloth shirt and a tuft of goatee, who looked a bit like a doctor.

Seeing Xiao Lin looking at him with a frown, the man smiled and said, "I am the manager here. My name is Gu Zhidan. People who are familiar with me will call me Doctor Gu."

"So it's Brother Gu. I'm Xiao Lin. I want to buy some recipes for elixirs. I wonder..." Xiao Lin whispered to Doctor Gu in front of him.

Doctor Gu was slightly stunned, and then said to Xiao Lin, "So that's the case. Then please follow me to the private room at the back to discuss in detail."

Following Doctor Gu, after passing through a long corridor, we saw several houses. These houses were built side by side. In front of them was a large lotus pond. Several colorful lotus flowers stretched their heads, as if competing for beauty.

Xiao Lin was naturally in no mood to appreciate the scenery of the pavilion forest here, but followed Doctor Gu into a room. After sitting down, Doctor Gu poured Xiao Lin a cup of tea and said, "Our Yaowang Shop has never sold pill recipes, but I don't know who instructed you to come here."

Xiao Lin's face was calm, but he was complaining in his heart. It seemed that the woman had some relationship with the Yaowang Shop, otherwise Doctor Gu would not insist that he was instructed by someone.

But he had already come here. Xiao Lin thought about it for a moment and didn't find anything wrong. He briefly told the story of how he was instructed by a woman in her thirties when he was looking at the magic weapon in the Lingduan Tower.

Doctor Gu listened quietly, then smiled and said, "That woman is my wife, her surname is Xu and her name is Lin. It is indeed as she said. The recipe of the elixir is usually a secret of the major forces. Even our Yaowang Shop has only mastered the refining methods of a few low-level elixirs, but it is never easily passed on. The reason why it is not passed on is not that these elixir recipes are precious. After all, for the current cultivation world, what is lacking is not the elixir recipe, but the main medicine for refining the elixir. For example, the Huichun flower used to refine the Huiyuan Pill has not yet disappeared in the Tianlu Mountains, but it has already disappeared. There are not many. Nowadays, except for the five major sects that are still cultivating them artificially and using them to refine elixirs to give to their disciples, few casual cultivators outside will cultivate them.

"After all, the cultivation time of spiritual herbs is often more than ten years, and the better spiritual herbs need decades to reach the medicinal age. If you spend so much time, even if you can refine spiritual medicine, it is probably not as practical as practicing in seclusion. However, since you are introduced by my wife, I can naturally take care of you, but I don’t know what kind of recipe you need."

After listening to Doctor Gu quietly, Xiao Lin thanked him and said, "I wonder if your pharmacy has the recipes for the Lingdan and Huilingdan? "

Hearing this, Doctor Gu nodded and said, "Both of these elixirs are used by cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. The Zhuo Ling Dan can assist in cultivation and improve the cultivator's cultivation, while the Hui Ling Dan can restore at least 50% of the cultivator's mana in a short period of time. They are indeed more practical elixirs. If you need a higher-level elixir formula, our Yaowang Shop does not have it, but if it is just the recipes for Zhuo Ling Dan and Hui Yuan Dan, we still have them."

Hearing this, Xiao Lin showed a surprised expression on his face. He didn't have much hope at first, but just wanted to try his luck. He didn't expect that the Yaowang Shop actually had the recipes for these two elixirs.

"But I don't know how to sell the recipes for these two elixirs?" Xiao Lin asked hurriedly. He was determined to get the recipes for these two elixirs. If the spirit stones were not enough, he would even take some risks to sell some Lingwu grass.

Doctor Gu looked at Xiao Lin meaningfully and smiled, "As long as you can agree to one of my conditions, I will give you the recipes for these two elixirs. ”
