Demon's Diary

Chapter 522: Selling Elixir

Liu Ming waved one hand and the elixir fell firmly into his hands.

At a glance, there are no elixir patterns on these two elixirs. According to his experience in refining the cold condensing pills, the purity should be between 50% and 60%.

A hint of regret flashed in Liu Ming’s eyes. He simply put the elixir aside, then he flicked his sleeve to clean up the medicinal dregs in the cauldron before starting the next round of refining.

At this moment, if an alchemist saw this situation, he would be furious. This was a cold condensing pill. Just successfully refining a pill would make them happy, Liu Ming actually disliked the quality of the elixir!

After more than 20 days, Liu Ming ran out of materials in his hands. He refined a dozen cold condensing pills and three golden yuan pills.

He was quite pleased to look at the glittering elixir in front of him which was the cold condensing pill with a silvery elixir pattern. It was a pellet grade elixir.

Being able to refine pellet grade elixir showed that he had reached the level of Middle Sky Continent’s so-called alchemy master in the refining of the cold condensing pill and the golden yuan pill.

Even some of the Taiqing Sect’s alchemy masters couldn’t easily refine these two elixirs.

As soon as Liu Ming thought of this, he couldn’t help feeling a little proud and emotional. He was playing with the pellet grade elixir in his hand while thinking about how to use these elixirs.

With the dozen of cold condensing pills, if he consumed all of them, his spiritual power would be increased greatly. It was even possible to get him back to the Condensation Period later stage.

However, after thinking twice, he gave up on this idea and decided not to take these elixirs first. Instead, he wanted to sell them for spirit stones, then he would buy a lot of alchemy materials to continue refining.

In this case, after repeating it several times, the price difference between this was enough to make a lot of spirit stone. He didn’t have to worry about lacking spirit stones from then on.

Both cold condensing pill and golden yuan pill were things that Condensation Period cultivators were looking for. Once he put them for sale, he never had to worry about not being able to find a buyer.

Of course, this was because he had mysterious bubbles that could purify spiritual power. He didn’t have to worry about the side effect of the elixir impurities and overconsumption would do to his cultivation and breaking through the bottleneck.

If it was an ordinary cultivator, even if he had such financial resources, he would not dare to consume elixirs like this.

Since Liu Ming had a plan in mind, he put down the elixirs and stored them into a storage talisman.

In the following time, he did not leave the cave house immediately, but he began to carefully comprehend the third level of the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison.

After all, elixir was only external support. The most important thing was his own cultivation.

One month later.

In Liu Ming’s sea of consciousness, the black classic flashed and turned into a black mist that slowly dissipated.

His mind then exited the sea of consciousness, but his face showed a depressed expression, and he was frowning.

This time, it took Liu Ming more than a month to fully comprehend the third level.

According to the classic, the difficulty of training the third level of the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison was far harder than the first two levels.

The first level exercise only required some ordinary yin qi, and the second level only needed to train with some external force. For the third level, not only was it slow to train, when the cultivator reached the middle stage, he also needed a vigorous natural wind to cleanse his body in order to achieve great succession.

Although the Tianfeng Cave that produced this kind of gang (positive) wind was of great benefit to those who cultivated body and wind attribute spells, it was formed naturally.

Even with the power of the Taiqing Sect, one could only choose a special terrain in Thousands Spirit Mountain and build a place with great magical powers.

However, the amount of contribution points needed was far beyond the Five Elements Spirit Cave. Even so, only the inner disciple was eligible to use it.

Although the vigorous wind was effective in cleansing the body, it still had a corrosive force that was harmful to the human body. If one was corroded by it for a long time, it would cause a hidden injury.

Therefore, according to the classic of the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison, every time the cultivator entered the Tianfeng Cave, the cultivator must be blessed by a kind of mystic arts cast by the sect elder to reduce the harmful effect of this wind.

When Liu Ming saw this, he suddenly realized something.

In this way, even if someone outside the sect learned the technique of Tiger Dragon Hell Prison, if he was not a Taiqing Sect disciple, he would not be able to cultivate this technique to a high level at all.

Not only this method, the high rank techniques in the Taiqing Sect would most likely have some restriction when cultivating.

And if he really wanted to cultivate the third level of Tiger Dragon Hell Prison, he really needed to become an inner disciple first. So, the most urgent task was to improve his strength first so that he could enter the finals in the major competition or go directly to the Void Spirit Tower.

As for Liu Ming’s current situation, he could take the cold condensing pill to speed up his progress. For other ways to improve quickly, he needed to consider cultivating several mystic arts and magical powers and also sacrificial refining the Nine Skulls Shield into a magic weapon.

As long as he completed the thirty-sixth enchantment of the Nine Skulls Shield, the shield would become a prototype of a magic weapon. His strength would be greatly increased.

Previously, according to “Flame Cultivation Scripture”, he had prepared a lot of materials needed for refining the last enchantment. The remaining materials could be collected from the market if he spent more spirit stones.

In this way, these two imperatives required a lot of spirit stone to complete.

After thinking carefully, Liu Ming immediately stood up and walked to the door of the cave house.

Two hours later, a black cloud landed at the entrance of the market. After a flash, a man with an ordinary face in a green robe appeared.

It was Liu Ming.

However, he has changed his figure and appearance through bone changing technique, and he also replaced his clothes with a green robe.

Liu Ming watched the bustling crowd in the market, and he slightly felt up and down in his heart.

Although he had been here several times, he came here to buy things. This time, he was here to sell items, so his mood was naturally different.

Liu Ming quickly came to the market’s East Street. This place was relatively unfamiliar to him. He had been to West Street and South Street several times, and many people should recognize him. To avoid unnecessary troubles, he chose to run further a bit. It was safer to visit some unfamiliar shops.

After strolling a little bit, he immediately walked into a general material shop.

Sitting behind the counter was a woman in red clothes who seemed to be in her twenties, she was slightly fat, with a few small freckles on her face, and her appearance was very ordinary.

“This fellow friend, what do you want to buy?”

The shop was relatively deserted; there wasn’t any customer here. The woman in red clothes saw Liu Ming walk in and immediately stood up with a smile.

Liu Ming looked around, then he walked to the counter.

“Shopkeeper, are you buying elixir?” Liu Ming said with a slight smile.

“Elixir? We do. What do elixir do you want to sell?” The woman in red clothes’ eyes lit up, then she nodded immediately.

Liu Ming smiled slightly and took out a storage amulet from his waist. With a flick, he took out a square jade box from it and handed it forward.

The woman in red clothes took the jade box and opened the lid, only to see three elixirs lying quietly in it. A lingering medicinal fragrance spread out.

Seeing this, this woman felt joy in her heart. Just with this strong medicinal fragrance, the purity of this elixir was certainly not low.

After some examination, she suddenly remembered something, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

“Cold condensing pill!” The woman in red clothes looked at Liu Ming in surprise. Her tone was a little excited.

“Shopkeeper really has a keen eye. It is exactly this pill. I wonder if you are buying it?” Liu Ming said lightly.

The cold condensing pill was rare, but because the main ingredient was green condensing fruit, the medicinal fragrance was delicate and slightly spicy. Anyone who was familiar with elixir could recognize it at a glance.

“The cold condensing pill is very helpful to the Condensation Period cultivator in enhancing spiritual power, and it is extremely difficult to refine. It is a rare elixir. We are buying it of course.” The woman in red clothes took another look at the jade box, and her fiery eyes were obvious.

Liu Ming glanced at the woman in red clothes strangely, and he couldn’t help but wonder a little.

When general merchants buy items, even if they want something, they will find some excuses to belittle the item so that they can lower the price. However, this woman in red clothes spoke of the advantages of the cold condensing pill which baffled Liu Ming.

He did not know that the woman in red clothes was now at the Condensation Period intermediate stage, and her cultivation had reached the bottleneck. She urgently needed the help of elixir that could improve her spiritual power. So as she saw the cold condensing pill, she was delighted and told the benefits of it subconsciously.

This was also because this woman was young, and she didn’t have any scheme. If it was an experienced merchant, he wouldn’t make such a mistake.

“In that case, please give me a price. If I’m okay with it, I will sell it here.” Liu Ming gently touched the counter with his finger and said casually.

When the woman in red clothes heard the words, a hesitant expression appeared on her face. After pondering for a moment, she quoted a price.

“Fifteen thousand spirit stones.”

The woman in red clothes glanced at Liu Ming, and she immediately added,

“The price is already very high. You should know that the general elixirs of the Condensation Period can usually be bought with thousands of spirit stones.”

Liu Ming listened to this price, and he pondered.

“Well, since this is the first time you come to our shop, I will offer sixteen thousand spirit stones.” Seeing this, the woman in red clothes felt a little anxious. In order to buy this cold condensing pill, she didn’t hesitate to add one thousand spirit stones.

After hearing the new offer, Liu Ming smiled and nodded.

This price was already much higher than his expectations.

Seeing Liu Ming’s consent, the woman in red clothes felt at ease. She then took out a cloth bag and pushed it over while she kept the jade box with joy.

Liu Ming scanned the cloth bag with Divine Thought. After confirming that the number of spirit stones in it was correct, he nodded and collected them.
