Hearing this, Zhou Yu furrowed his brow.
He had originally intended to buy so elixir recipes to make pill dicine himself.
After all, in the Four Directions Realm, a large number of spiritual dicines have already been cultivated.
If he could make pill dicine himself, it would certainly be more cost-effective, and more secretive for him, than buying them.
However, he did not possess any elixir recipes.
That’s why he had the thought to buy elixir recipes.
Now, it seems, this path might not work.
The store owner saw Zhou Yu’s face darken, and he was startled, suddenly feeling uneasy.
After all, the person before him was soone of captain level in the City Defense Team.
In Fengyuan City, it’s especially crucial not to offend anyone from the City Defense Team.
This is a widespread consensus.
Hurriedly, the store owner said:
"Uh, senior, although I don’t have the elixir recipes for these two kinds of pill dicine, I recently and by chance obtained two pieces of ancient formula. I wonder if the senior might be interested?"
"Ancient formula?"
"What is that?"
Zhou Yu raised his eyebrow and asked.
The shopkeeper quickly explained:
"These are elixir recipes passed down from ancient tis, and they’re not particularly rare items. Many places have them."
"Actually, if the pill dicine recorded in the ancient formula could be produced, its effects would be much better than current pill dicine."
"But because the dicinal materials for this type of elixir recipe require excessively old doses, making them extrely difficult, almost impossible. So, many alchemists use ancient formulas as references to develop new elixir recipes, and many mainstream pill dicine recipes now are actually derived from ancient formulas."
"Precisely because of these reasons, there’s no regulation from above concerning ancient formulas."
Upon hearing these words, Zhou Yu’s heart stirred.
He calmly said:
"Let take a look!"
The store owner imdiately instructed his subordinate, and two pieces of ancient formula were quickly retrieved.
Two ancient formulas were soon displayed in front of Zhou Yu.
They were two specially made hides.
Zhou Yu sent his divine sense over, soon seeing the contents on the ancient formula.
"Bright Sun Pill, lt God Pill!"
These were the nas of the pill dicines recorded on the two pieces of ancient formula respectively.
However, when Zhou Yu saw the dicinal materials for the Bright Sun Pill, his expression imdiately changed.
The Bright Sun Pill required about ten types of dicinal materials, and among them, Zhou Yu had never heard of most of them.
It’s noteworthy that he had read quite a few ancient books, particularly concerning dicinal materials.
Even if he wasn’t as knowledgeable as the formidable alchemists, he knew far more than ordinary people in the Heavenly Origin World.
The fact that he hadn’t heard of these dicinal materials shows just how difficult their concoction must be.
Seeing Zhou Yu’s reaction, the shopkeeper secretly grimaced.
He was, of course, aware of the difficulty in concocting these two kinds of pill dicine, but he had no better option; at this mont, he could only brace himself.
Directly thereafter, Zhou Yu looked at the second pill dicine, the lt God Pill.
Upon seeing the dicinal materials for the lt God Pill, Zhou Yu’s expression suddenly returned to calm, making it entirely unclear what he might be thinking.
Soon, Zhou Yu finished looking over the two ancient formulas.
Then, he withdrew his divine sense and looked at the store owner.
"What you said is correct; these two ancient formulas are indeed of no practical use. I’m afraid that even if the entire force of Fengyuan City were mobilized, the dicinal materials listed couldn’t be gathered."
The shopkeeper turned pale, forced a smile and said:
"My humble store really is..."
At this point, Zhou Yu waved his hand.
"However, these two ancient formulas aren’t completely useless; at least they have so reference value."
"I’ll take them."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was montarily stunned, then quickly beca enthusiastic:
"That’s good, that’s good."
"As long as the senior can find them useful, it’s good."
Zhou Yu inquired about the price and quickly completed the transaction.
Afterwards, Zhou Yu left the shop with the ancient formulas.
Upon leaving the shop, a slight smile appeared at Zhou Yu’s lips.
The Bright Sun Pill was indeed difficult to produce, but as for the lt God Pill, it was not entirely impossible.
Except for one peculiar dicinal ingredient, the other materials weren’t hard to find; only the requirent for their age was substantial.
But for Zhou Yu, that wasn’t a problem.
Afterwards, Zhou Yu visited several more shops, spending the entire day.
As expected, just as the owner of the first shop had said, mainstream elixir recipes were not sold at all, whereas Zhou Yu managed to collect a few more ancient formulas.
In comparing a few ancient formulas, it still seed that concocting the lt God Pill was more promising.
Of course, apart from the ancient formulas, Zhou Yu also purchased so spiritual dicine seedlings.
Having almost finished buying everything, Zhou Yu looked at his storage ring. The spirit stones he had accumulated were almost spent.
If he went to the auction like this and encountered sothing suitable for him, wouldn’t he miss out?
Upon this thought, Zhou Yu muttered to himself:
"Looks like I must find a way to get so spirit stones."
For him, getting spirit stones is actually very easy.
All it takes is so aged spiritual dicine.
Good spiritual dicine has always been hard currency, never lacking buyers.
However, there’s also a trouble in this, as if he sells too much spiritual dicine, it will certainly attract unwanted attention, leading to inevitable problems.
Thinking to this point, a glint flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes, and he proceeded to a secluded corner.
Then he imdiately changed his attire, simultaneously activating the Heavenly Gang Body, transforming his appearance in an instant into sothing else entirely.
A few minutes later, when Zhou Yu erged again, his entire being was completely different.
Unless there were trendously familiar Void Refinent Realm powerhouses using divine sense to scrutinize him closely, the average person would never find anything amiss.
Once the disguise was complete, Zhou Yu began to frequent various pawnbrokers to exchange for spirit stones.
Throughout, Zhou Yu changed his appearance several tis, eventually acquiring a large amount of spirit stones.
After finishing the transaction, Zhou Yu briskly left the market district and headed straight for the City Defense Headquarters.
Despite Zhou Yu’s caution, when he left, a few spies still tracked him.
However, upon seeing Zhou Yu enter the City Defense Headquarters, they couldn’t follow any further, so they had to give up.
Upon returning to the City Defense Headquarters, Zhou Yu resud his original appearance, then went to Team 189’s lounge to ditate quietly, awaiting the auction.
According to Xu Ling, the auction was scheduled for three days later.
The location was in a place called Han Yue Restaurant in the city.
Three days flew by quickly.
On the third morning, Zhou Yu left the City Defense Hall and headed straight for Han Yue Restaurant.
Han Yue Restaurant was located right at the outskirts of the public area for both the Human and Demon Clans, and it was in a very remote location.
When Zhou Yu arrived, he thought it was a deserted place.
However, as soon as he entered the restaurant, he was t by a man in the Divinity Transformation Realm.
"Are you here to attend the auction?"
Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded.
"Please show your invitation."
Zhou Yu didn’t waste words, directly taking out the jade pendant.
The man gave it a look, then said:
"Please follow ."
Under his guidance, Zhou Yu arrived at a decrepit room behind the restaurant.
Such a place, hosting an auction?
Zhou Yu was a bit doubtful.
However, to his surprise, there was a transmission array in this rundown room.
"Alright, step into the transmission array to reach the auction hall."
"Once the auction ends, you can leave directly using the invitation."
After speaking, the man turned around and left.
After inspecting the transmission array, and confirming it was safe, Zhou Yu stepped inside...
