This scene was observed by four people currently in the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
A sound isolation cover was set up, and Tian Xingzi chuckles as he starts the conversation.
"Young friend, how have you been keeping?"
"Your energy is radiant, sir. It appears that your cultivation level has greatly improved, hasn’t it?"
Everyone knows how to flatter a bit!
So does Luo Chen.
Tian Xingzi shook his head, "I am old and have no aspirations left to reach the Core Formation in this life. The improvent of my cultivation level is not very important. What’s important is..."
"What does your pill refining friend in the Foundation Establishnt Stage think?"
It seems that he is holding high expectations for the Blood Ignition Pill cooperation!
Having confird this thought in his heart, Luo Chen does not hesitate and imdiately replies:
"He went with it, but..."
The interesting part begins now!
Tian Xingzi braces himself, "What are the conditions? Please speak your mind!"
Luo Chen is pretty straightforward, "Although the Blood Ignition Pill is just a First Order Pill, it is extrely difficult to refine, and it requires a large amount of primary materials."
"So, the other party needs to provide the corresponding raw materials and the price can be based on the current market price."
Tian Xingzi nodded, "This is reasonable. Most of the dicinal herbs are indeed difficult to purchase now that Hundred Herbs Pavilion has moved out."
"In that case, give a list, and whatever can be arranged, I will do my best."
Luo Chen took out a list on the spot and handed it over.
Such preparedness made Tian Xingzi very satisfied.
It showed that Luo Chen was sincerely seeking cooperation.
Having received the list, he read it quickly, from top to bottom.
Fire Dog Tail, Huan You Grass, North Sea Jade Yao Pillar, Explosive Monkey Demon Blood, Earth Fire Evil Qi, Snow Fox Demon Blood, Netherworld Evil Qi...
After reading it, he looked up in astonishnt.
"Does the Blood Ignition Pill require such a great variety of ingredients?"
No wonder he was surprised.
Not only was there a large quantity required on this list, but there were many conflicting properties between many of the materials.
For example, the Explosive Monkey Demon Blood and Snow Fox Demon Blood would conflict despite both being labeled as First Order quality. One has explosive attributes, while the other has icy attributes.
This is not a simple balance of Yin and Yang. They possess extre properties and cannot be used together in pill refinent.
Then there’s the Earth Fire Evil Qi and Netherworld Evil Qi of the two Evil Qi, one is First Order and the other Second Order.
What kind of elixir requires two types of Evil Qi of different ranks and attributes?
And also, what on earth is Fire Dog Tail?
Luo Chen kept his silence behind a smile.
Naturally, these are not just the ingredients for the Blood Ignition Pill.
This list also includes primary materials for many other kinds of elixirs, such as the Allure Pill, Tongyou Pill, and Blood Evil Qi Pill.
Firstly, he wanted to deceive Tian Xingzi, so Tian Xingzi wouldn’t guess the primary materials of the Blood Ignition Pill.
After all, there must be a powerful force behind him that has experienced high-level pill refiners.
If they managed to infer the pill formula of the Blood Ignition Pill from the primary materials, then he would suffer a great loss.
Secondly, Luo Chen is indeed in deficiency of these primary materials.
Hundred Herbs Pavilion and Spirit Source Study have moved.
The Immortal Residence was destroyed.
Many things, he could not collect on his own.
Even the production of Allure Pills had been halted within Luo Tian Creed.
The North Sea Jade Yao Pillar, despite being cheap, could only be resold in large quantities by the Hundred Herbs Pavilion which has the backing of dicine King Sect.
After all, it is a specialty of the foreign realm.
The Tongyou Pill is an incomplete pill formula, but after a long ti of study, Luo Chen now has a deep understanding of it.
He’s fairly confident that he can complete its formula.
As long as the system beginner model is combined, there is a high chance of success.
At that point, he would be able to refine this elixir to increase his Divine Soul Endownt.
As for that Netherworld Evil Qi, it was considered for Wang Yuan, just in case.
Seeing Luo Chen’s silence and smile, Tian Xingzi also understood.
The other party simply wished to use the cooperation opportunity to purchase other required resources!
Additionally, he concealed the proportion of the main materials needed to make the Blood Ignition Pill.
A clever little trick indeed.
He deeply observed Luo Chen, before carefully putting away the list.
"Do not worry. Since I have agreed to cooperate, I will certainly do my best to fulfill your and your friend’s requests."
"To show my sincerity, let also share so news with you."
Luo Chen looked at him curiously.
What news could be as valuable as the sincerity of a True Cultivator in the Foundation Establishnt stage?
"Foundation Establishnt Pill!"
"I’ve already secured three of them, they will be delivered to The Great River District shortly."
"Phew!"
...
A low, heavy gasp emanated from the man in front of him.
Tian Xingzi was quite satisfied with his reaction.
He believed that under such a display of "sincerity", few could remain calm.
Luo Chen also realised he had lost composure, quickly regulating his breath.
It was no wonder he was so stirred, it was a Foundation Establishnt Pill after all!
Moreover, the old man had previously said they were difficult to find.
Yet now he turned around and inford him that he had secured "three" of them!
Three, not one or two!
If it had been one or two, Luo Chen wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
Given his aptitude, he genuinely worried that one or two wouldn’t work for him.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have previously given away the single pill that Mi Shuhua handed him as a favour, to Qin Liangchen.
But three pills ant three chances for him to reach the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
Even a donkey should succeed with three chances!
Turns out, the term "difficult to find" referred to greater quantities!
Luo Chen’s voice was a bit hoarse.
"Senior..."
"Wait!"
Tian Xingzi raised his hand just when Luo Chen thought he was about to state his conditions.
However, the other party simply smiled and said: "I’ve expended lots of goodwill to secure these three Foundation Establishnt Pills. Hence, as for the price... five thousand Spirit Stones each, what do you think?"
Is five thousand Spirit Stones a cheap or expensive price?
Obviously, it’s expensive!
Even though the Foundation Establishnt Pill is precious, it is still only a Second Order Pill.
Typically, Second Order Pills start at three to five hundred Spirit Stones per bottle.
If Foundation Establishnt Pills were retailed per pill, a price of one or two thousand would already account for the attribute of "increasing the rate of advancent."
At the previous Yu Ding auction, the five Foundation Establishnt Pills were bought at two thousand Spirit Stones each.
However, for an average rogue cultivator, this price would seem cheap.
Firstly, they really had no avenues to purchase them.
Secondly, even if one or two were auctioned, the final bids would often be astronomically high.
The last Foundation Establishnt Pill was auctioned off at six thousand eight hundred Spirit Stones!
The competition was just too intense!
Finally, Luo Chen could totally accept this price.
After all, he was the esteed Luo Tian Creed Leader, a distinguished pill refiner.
Now, he could confidently state to anyone:
"I have substantial savings!"
Three in total amounts to just fifteen thousand.
Putting aside other things, he currently had sixteen thousand five hundred on hand.
After the auction ended the last ti, his twenty thousand balance dipped to nine thousand five hundred.
A month later, the Luo Tian Creed made him another eight thousand!
Today, at the auction, he rely spent less than a thousand on the Green Firefly Lamp and the Netherworld Pill.
Which ans, if Tian Xingzi were to produce three Foundation Establishnt Pills right now.
He, Luo Chen, would be able to buy them on the spot!
Unfortunately, Tian Xingzi said it’ll take so ti.
"I thank you, senior, I’m quite satisfied with this price!"
"When the Foundation Establishnt Pills arrive, please notify imdiately."
Luo Chen expressed his sincere gratitude.
Having seen the other party’s sincerity, he certainly couldn’t be stingy.
"Just as soon as the materials arrive, I will make sure to have my friend refine the Blood Ignition Pill for your esteed faction as soon as possible."
Tian Xingzi laughed heartily, "Then, a pleasant cooperation!"
"A pleasant cooperation indeed!"
Choosing not to participate in the subsequent free-trade session, Luo Chen left the Zhenlong Black Market early.
Stepping outside, he noticed that the snowfall had intensified.
This winter seed set to be the most beautiful one in history.
Luo Chen was thrilled.
After concealing his aura, he lted into the night.
