To the west of the floating continent, there was a tall and majestic building called the Dou Shuai Palace.
It had nine white stone pillars supporting the roof, and it looked like a palace that symbolized the majesty of the Emperor.
The Dou Shuai Palace was a temporary residence of the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue. It wasn't under the jurisdiction of the Celestial Court, but it was responsible for the pill refinement business of the Celestial Court. Most of the immortals of the Celestial Court would go to the Dou Shuai Palace if they wanted pills.
The person in charge of pill refinement was the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue's first disciple, the Enlightened Yi Xi.
His pill refinement skills were among the best in the Celestial Court. Not only were his pills of high quality, but they were also highly efficient.
An Lin flew through the air on his brick with a navigation map in his hand. Xiao Chou was sitting obediently on his shoulder.
Soon, he saw the majestic palace.
"Holy sh * t, such a huge palace?" He was a little astonished.
The palace was at least a few hundred meters tall. At first glance, it looked like a towering mountain in front of him.
In front of the Dou Shuai Palace, there were white lotuses blooming all over the ground.
A cool breeze blew gently, bringing with it a faint medicinal fragrance that made people feel refreshed.
An Lin landed at the entrance of the Dou Shuai Palace. There were two armored Heavenly Soldiers standing guard there.
"Stop, please show me your identity."
One of the Heavenly Soldiers said.
An Lin stopped in his tracks. He was slightly taken aback.
Show me my identity? What identity did he have? Was he a student?
After thinking for a moment, he took out his Xiuxian United University student identification card. It was a wooden badge.
The Heavenly Soldiers stepped aside upon seeing the wooden badge.
An Lin put away the wooden badge. He didn't think that he would be able to use his student identification card here.
After entering the Dou Shuai Palace, he was greeted by the sight of many Daoist priests in Daoist robes busily filling medicinal ingredients.
As far as the eye could see, the entire floor was filled with medicine cabinets. They were so densely packed that it was hard to count how many heavenly treasures were stored here.
"Hello, Fellow Daoist. May I ask if you're here to find someone to refine medicine into?" At this moment, a young Daoist with delicate features came to An Lin's side and asked.
An Lin immediately nodded. "Yes, I want to find someone to help me refine an immortal pill."
"An immortal pill?" The little Daoist priest was astonished. "Then we'll have to ask Senior Yi Xi to refine it for us. Please come with me."
An Lin followed the little Daoist to a wooden plank.
The wooden board suddenly began to move upwards, arriving at the second floor. At first glance, it was still densely packed with medicine cabinets.
The wooden plank continued to move upwards. The third floor, the fourth floor … they were all filled with medicine cabinets.
An Lin felt that the Dou Shuai Palace was a huge treasure vault. There were countless natural treasures on every floor, and the total amount of these medicinal herbs was terrifying!
The wooden board stopped moving on the 19th floor. An Lin followed the young Daoist to a refining room facing east.
"Senior Yi Xi, there's a customer who wishes to refine an immortal pill for you." The little Daoist priest bowed respectfully.
"M-hm, tell him to wait for a while. I'll finish refining this pill first," a lazy voice sounded.
An Lin looked toward the refining room and saw a fatty with bushy eyebrows and big eyes gnawing on an apple in one hand while waving his other hand in the air.
Purple flames rose in front of him, and countless medicinal herbs were mixed and refined in the air.
My God, pill refinement can be done with one hand?
An Lin was a little shocked. He had learned about pill refinement in school, and he knew that the most important aspect of pill refinement was that one's body and mind had to be as one without any distractions.
However, this person was eating an apple while refining a pill. Furthermore, he wasn't even using a pill refinement furnace. Wasn't this a little too casual?
"Huh? You're the person who wants to refine the pill? "
Yi Xi looked at An Lin as he nibbled on the apple, one hand still waving in the air.
An Lin was shocked. "Big Brother, don't you need to look at me when you refine the pill?"
F * ck, so be it if he could multitask …
But now, he didn't even bother to look at what the medicinal herbs in the air had become!
Would pills refined this way really not kill people?
"Oh, don't worry, I'm really good at it."
As if he knew what An Lin was worried about, Yi Xi offered words of consolation.
"Condense the pill!" Yi Xi made a grabbing motion in the air, and the medicinal herbs that were being roasted by the purple flames in the air suddenly began to spin. A dazzling light burst forth, and the crisp cry of a bird reverberated throughout the entire space.
Whoosh!
A translucent, snow-white pill flew into Yi Xi's hand.
Yi Xi had a satisfied expression on his face. "Peach Blossom, deliver this eighth-grade Azure Bird Frost Flower immortal pill to True Lord Erlang of the Celestial Court."
A beautiful Daoist nun walked into the room and placed the pill into a bottle before departing cheerfully.
An Lin's heart jolted slightly. He didn't think that Yi Xi could refine eighth-grade immortal pills so casually. This was a sign of his strength!
With this in mind, An Lin's heart also relaxed slightly.
Seeing that Yi Xi had finished refining the pill in his hand, An Lin asked respectfully, "Senior Yi Xi, this junior is An Lin. I would like to ask you to refine a ninth-grade wood-type immortal pill for me. May I know the price?"
Yi Xi yawned upon hearing this. "There are many types of ninth-grade wood-type immortal pills, and they all have different prices. Which one do you want? Tell me its name."
"Er, I don't know which one I want either, so I'll go with the cheapest one!" An Lin replied after a moment of hesitation.
"Hah? You want the cheapest one? " Yi Xi blinked his large eyes. "Are you feeding your immortal pills to pigs? You're only going to pick the cheapest one without even looking at its characteristics? What kind of attitude is that?"
An Lin's lips twitched upon hearing this. I'm the pig you're referring to!
Stage One Evergreen Technique — Condition: Consume five wood-type immortal pills in a row.
As long as it was an immortal pill, he naturally wanted the cheapest one!
An Lin made up his mind and said, "Senior Yi Xi, please tell me the price of the cheapest wood-type immortal pill first!"
Yi Xi replied with a resigned expression, "Vitality Enhancement Pill, eighty thousand spirit stones each. Consuming it can strengthen one's constitution, replenish one's energy essence, and slightly expand the capacity of the vital energy sea in one's jade palace. Do you want it?"
Only eighty thousand spirit stones each? This was much cheaper than he had imagined.
An Lin nodded with a smile. "Alright, I want it. Give me five!"
Yi Xi glared at him. "Why do you want so many of these pills? If you consume them repeatedly, the effects will be greatly reduced!"
An Lin replied bluntly, "I like them."
Yi Xi felt a lump in his throat, and he didn't want to say anything else.
Fine, you're a fool with a lot of money, I can't win against you in an argument.
Yi Xi didn't continue to dwell on this topic. Instead, he instructed a young Daoist priest to inform the medicine collectors to prepare the ingredients.
At this moment, the clown suddenly jumped onto the golden pill refinement cauldron.
Yi Xi had already noticed this adorably ugly little monkey, and he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "What do you want to do?"
The clown scratched his head and replied, "I heard that the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal, Sun Wukong, was refined by the Six Ding Divine Flame for forty-nine days in this pill refinement cauldron, and he achieved the Eyes of Fire and Golden …"
Yi Xi grimaced as a certain unpleasant memory was evoked by the clown's words. "You want to try?"
The clown shook his head. "No … no, I just want to take a picture with you."
Yi Xi was dumbfounded. "What?"
However, when the clown turned to look at An Lin with his lightbulb-like eyes, An Lin cooperatively took out his solar cell phone.
"Come, come, come, Clown, stand on top of the cauldron and form a pair of scissors with your hands. Yes, just like that!"
Kacha, kacha! An Lin chuckled happily.
"I'm done. Let's take a few more pictures in your original form!"
The clown's body began to transform, turning into the Ugly Monkey King!
"Come, come, come, smile!"
An ugly smile appeared on the clown's face.
Yi Xi: "…"
What's going on here?
Are these two lunatics here to ask for pill refinement, or are they here to sightsee?!
Then, the clown raised his scissors above his head like a rabbit's ears, trying to act cute …
Yi Xi almost blacked out at this sight, and an urge to beat someone up welled up in his heart.
Just like that, the clown took a picture of the pill refinement cauldron that his idol had once achieved the Eyes of Fire and Golden!
