1479: Chapter 1499: Stealing Love with a Sword?_1 1479: Chapter 1499: Stealing Love with a Sword?_1 Lin Chen sat by the window in the tavern, relishing his drink and leisurely watching the bustling crowd in the spacious street below.
He had been in Feifeng City for several days already.
As the day of the Yunxiao Danwang Conference approached, more and more cultivators flocked into the city, and the inn in Feifeng City was already brimming with people.
The vast majority of cultivators who entered Feifeng City were not alchemists.
Most of them were here to enjoy the spectacle, and of course, so cultivators needed dicinal pills or immortal herbs and wanted to take this opportunity to et their needs.
The competition was still days away, but the trade market in West City was already well established and bustling.
The streets were teeming with cultivators who ca to trade and sightsee.
After finishing his al, Lin Chen went to the trade market again to look for goods.
The trade market was temporarily set up in a military training camp, occupying a wide area.
It was divided into several zones for trading magical treasures, dicinal pills, immortal herbs, and even a dedicated pill refining area.
In the pill-refining area, alchemists of various levels set up their stalls.
Cultivators who needed pill refining could bring their own materials and request alchemists to help them refine.
The alchemists would receive a certain handling fee if the refining was successful.
If it failed, the alchemists would compensate for a portion of the herbs’ value.
Lin Chen leisurely wandered in the pill trading area, looking for dicinal pills he needed.
At Donghua Ancestor’s longevity banquet, he had obtained over ten valuable items, including Ten Thousand Years Snow Lingzhi, Ink Jade Bamboo, and Buddha Heart Wood, all of which are rare immortal herbs.
The Ten Thousand Years Snow Lingzhi could refine into the Snow Spirit Pill, Ink Jade Bamboo could refine into the Ink Jade Pill.
Both of these pills could quickly enhance the cultivator’s strength, while Buddha Heart Wood could be refined into the detoxifying holy dicine, the Buddha Heart Pill.
Previously, Lin Chen did not possess the ability to refine these precious items, and in the next five years, he was busy improving his pill refining technique and had no ti to cultivate.
Therefore, he didn’t refine them right away, besides, he also feared that he might waste these precious materials due to his lack of strength.
The immortal herbs that could be presented as birthday gifts to the Peak Golden Immortal by a sect were undoubtedly extrely precious.
If he wasted them in failed pill refining, it would be a great loss.
Lin Chen was still a certain distance away from reaching the late stage of Human Immortal.
He planned to use this opportunity to buy all the required dicinal herbs and refine them into pills, hoping to surge into the late stage of the Human Immortal realm in one go.
Lin Chen needed quite a few herbs, which were sowhat valuable, but luckily, he already had the main ingredients for the dicinal pills to be refined, so he didn’t worry too much about not being able to find what he needed.
When Lin Chen arrived at a booth, his eyes suddenly lit up.
There was a handwritten tag hanging on a rune box.
“Pure Yang Wood.”
Pure Yang Wood was an essential auxiliary material needed for refining Snow Spirit Pill, second only to the main material, Ten Thousand Years Snow Lingzhi.
Although it wasn’t very expensive, it was also not abundant.
Lin Chen had been looking for it for several days but didn’t find it until now.
Lin Chen stood in front of the booth and pointed, “Pure Yang Wood.
Can I take a look?”
The stall owner was a white-haired old man who chucklingly picked up the rune box and handed it to Lin Chen.
“Fellow cultivator, feel free to take a look.
This Pure Yang Wood is of top quality, and I spent a lot of money to acquire it earlier…”
Lin Chen ignored the old man’s bragging.
He opened the rune box, and a vigorous and scorching breath rushed out.
There was a piece of wood lying quietly inside the box.
Although it didn’t burn, its body was glowing red as if it were charred coal.
Lin Chen’s eyes brightened; the quality of this Pure Yang Wood was indeed good, and it could be used for pill refining.
Lin Chen raised his head and asked, “How much?”
The white-haired elder said smilingly, “A hundred thousand Immortal Spirit Stones.”
Lin Chen raised his eyebrow.
He could afford this price, but for the price of Pure Yang Wood, it seed a bit high.
“Your price is not quite fair.
Give a reasonable price.”
The white-haired elder laughed, “Fellow cultivator, I know this price is a bit higher than the market price, but I had no choice.
I had to pay a high price to obtain it earlier.
You have to let make so profit, right?”
Of course, the white-haired elder was talking nonsense.
This piece of Pure Yang Wood was worth about 50,000 Immortal Spirit Stones at most.
He was trying to sell it at double the price.
But since the goods were his, he naturally had the right to set the price.
And with the daily influx of cultivators in need of dicinal herbs, he was not worried about being unable to sell them.
Just as Lin Chen was about to agree, soone abruptly spoke, “A hundred thousand Immortal Spirit Stones, I’ll take it.”
Lin Chen frowned, turned to look.
Not far behind him stood a man and a woman whose gaze was fixed on the Pure Yang Wood.
The man appeared to be in his thirties, and the woman seed to be twenty-seven or eight.
Both exuded formidable auras.
Both of them were dressed in white robes, with a pill furnace pattern on them.
Two golden dragons coiled around the furnace, spewing real fire into it.
The furnace sat atop blazing fire, bringing the scene to vivid life.
It seed like they were from an Alchemy Sect?
Lin Chen was uncertain about their identities for the mont and did not pay them heed.
Instead, he took out a hundred thousand Immortal Spirit Stones and handed them to the stall owner.
“A hundred thousand.”
The stall owner blinked, glanced at the couple behind Lin Chen but fell silent, a hint of fear flickered in his eyes.
Lin Chen casually closed the lid of the rune box and then placed the box into his spatial ring.
First co, first served – that’s the rule!
The couple watched Lin Chen’s movents, their expressions turning slightly colder.
The woman coldly said, “What do you think you’re doing?
Take out the Pure Yang Wood.
Didn’t you hear say we want it?”
