Yan City No.9’s Exchange Centre was the place that interested Ye Lingyue the most.
Previously, Jin Wu Old Monster had said that all kinds of elixirs could be exchanged here, and Ye Lingyue had been curious to see how it worked.
In the three major public areas, after the victor defeated the opponent, the prize they obtained might not be what they needed the most. At that point, the role of the exchange stations beca significant.
Once at the exchange station, Ye Lingyue did not see the multitude of alchemists or the smoking alchemy furnaces she had imagined. She did not even see a single person from Yan City No.9.
Ye Lingyue only saw several large circular platforms, which were the automatic exchange platforms.
Taking the elixir exchange platform as an example. It was divided into nine sections, each corresponding to a grade of elixir. Below each section were digital buttons and so common types of mainland elixirs listed. By using these buttons, one could select the corresponding grade of elixir.
There were also several colors in each section, used to distinguish between Blue Striped, Yellow Pattern, and Red Pattern elixirs.
In the center of the platform, there was a square-shaped elixir exchange port.
"Even Ninth-grade Elixir can be exchanged here?" Ye Lingyue noticed that beside the platform, there were exchange rates written for the elixirs, ranging from First-grade to Ninth-grade elixirs, with exchange rates from ten to fifty. The lowest, a First-grade Elixir, required an astonishing number of hundreds of millions of elixirs to exchange for a single Ninth-grade elixir.
"Theoretically it’s possible, but there are just too few people who can exchange for Ninth-grade Elixirs. So far, the highest exchange I’ve seen was soone using one million Fourth-grade Elixirs to exchange for a single Eighth-grade Elixir. The elixir just rolled out from this exchange platform. As the largest underground assassination and military workshop on the mainland, it’s said that behind them, there’s a group of extrely formidable Alchemy Masters," Jin Wu Old Monster said with a still apprehensive look when ntioning this incident.
In fact, about three to four years ago, there were frequent disappearances of advanced alchemists and even so long-established Fang Venerates on the mainland. At that ti, people suspected the people of the Underground Yama Hall were abducting them.
Unfortunately, after those people disappeared, they never appeared on the mainland again, and no one dared to truly investigate the Underground Yama Hall.
After hearing this, Ye Lingyue was sowhat skeptical. She took out a few bottles of Third-grade Blue Pattern Xuan Yin Elixirs from her person.
After taking out thirty pieces, Ye Lingyue threw them into the elixir exchange port and then, according to the exchange ratios, selected a Fourth-grade Elixir called Gale Elixir.
Ye Lingyue rembered that the normal price for this Gale Elixir on the mainland was supposed to be twenty-five Third-grade Xuan Yin Elixirs for one Gale Elixir. Outside of Yan City No.9, the exchange coins would be five more Xuan Yin Elixirs, just this price difference alone translated to several hundred taels of Gold.
Such a rip-off.
Ye Lingyue thought to herself, and then with a "gulug" sound, when twenty-five of her Xuan Yin Elixirs had been swallowed, the exchange port suddenly made a noise, and the remaining five Xuan Yin Elixirs were sent back.
Before long, a light green Gale Elixir was delivered out of the exchange port.
"My goodness, Boss, this isn’t fair at all. Why did the exchange platform only take twenty-five of your Xuan Yin Elixirs?" Jin Wu Old Monster exclaid in shock.
"It’s probably because the quality of my Xuan Yin Elixirs is better," Ye Lingyue’s Xuan Yin Elixirs, even if only blue striped, were comparable in effect to the Yellow Pattern Xuan Yin Pills an average alchemist made.
If she had guessed correctly, this exchange platform must have been set with so special prohibition that automatically recognized enough elixirs as received once the spiritual energy within the elixirs reached a certain concentration, before exchanging for the requested elixirs as per the client’s needs.
This technique alone greatly impressed Ye Lingyue.
However, for Ye Lingyue, this exchange platform turned out to be a good deal.
Thanks to the purification function of the Qian Cauldron, her elixirs were of better quality, even among those of the sa pattern. This allowed her to indirectly enjoy the sa prices as in other regions of the mainland when at Yan City No.9.
The price difference didn’t matter much when there were few elixirs.
But once Ye Lingyue obtained the elixirs and purified them, their quality would improve.
If she exchanged them after that, the higher the grade of the elixirs, the more cost-effective it would be.
After casually rewarding Jin Wu Old Monster with a Gale Elixir, Ye Lingyue made a round within the exchange centre.
She found that there were many similar exchange platforms.
However, depending on the type of exchange, the items to be exchanged were not just as simple as elixirs.
So platforms could even exchange spirit cores and spiritual artifacts!
However, just like the elixir exchange platforms, the items used for exchange on these different types of platforms must also be spirit cores or spiritual artifacts.
"Martial Arts Exchange Platform?"
What surprised Ye Lingyue the most was seeing the Martial Arts Exchange Platform. Yan City No.9 even had Martial Arts for exchange?
Just a quarter of an hour earlier, Ye Lingyue had seen a martial artist use five Seventh Rank Martial Arts stone carvings to exchange for a Lower Grade Sixth-tier Martial Arts.
The difference between Seventh and Eighth Tier Martial Arts and Sixth Tier Martial Arts seed to be only a one or two stage difference, but in reality, the gap was huge.
The existence of Yan City No.9’s Martial Arts Exchange Platform undeniably provided a good channel for many martial artists with no backing from the mainland.
"Exactly, and it’s for this reason that Yan City can attract so many people. My lord, don’t think that those who co here are just rcenaries and secular martial artists and alchemists; so even disguised disciples from sects are here," Jin Wu Old Monster said with an informing tone.
After hearing this, Ye Lingyue was even more astonished.
Suddenly, she realized the reason behind Underground Yama Hall’s establishnt of Yan City. Elixirs, Martial Arts, spirit cores, and spiritual artifacts, these most important things for martial artists and alchemists on the mainland, were all indirectly circulated through the Underground Yama Hall.
In the process of circulation, the Underground Yama Hall had quietly taken control of a large number of Martial Arts, the best elixirs, and the finest weapons.
Wu Zhong, a truly terrifying figure.
Ye Lingyue ca to Yan City No.9 not only for the Candle Dragon Elixir but also to gain strength, thus a good Martial Arts Technique was crucial for her.
Therefore, she was particularly interested in this Martial Arts Exchange Platform.
She was now a martial artist in the Elixir Realm, but unfortunately, in terms of Attack Type Martial Arts, she had been stuck on the second finger of the Buddhist Sect’s Little Infinite Finger, while the Chaos Cultivation Yuan Technique was also a Sixth Tier Martial Arts, but was a Nourishing Yuan and Firming Foundation Technique.
If possible, Ye Lingyue hoped to find a better Martial Arts Technique at the Martial Arts Exchange.
According to the rules of Yan City Exchange Centre, a five-to-one was the most basic exchange ratio.
Taking a First-tier Martial Arts as an example, at least five Second-tier Martial Arts were needed for an exchange.
Of course, Ye Lingyue could not possibly exchange for such high-level Martial Arts all at once.
