One water and one fire, the two perfectly fused into one.
As it lay on Su Yu's palm, it emitted a cool and refreshing feeling. The Fire Essence within it did not burn Su Yu at all.
This was the state of balance that the ancient book required. Not a single drop of the essence of the Fire Pith was lost. Only by wrapping it in a water-attributed treasure could it be safely fused into the body.
The next step was the final process.
Su Yu swallowed the crimson and emerald teardrop, and a cool and refreshing feeling spread throughout his whole body.
The teardrop seeped into Su Yu's blood vessels and entered Su Yu's heart.
Su Yu immediately revolved his Vital Energy according to the ancient book, slowly refining the teardrop and turning it into a part of his body.
This process took a long time, and it was only on the second day that Su Yu slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with wisps of flames.
A pair of faintly discernible fiery red wings flashed behind his back.
At the same time, an astonishing heat wave radiated from the room.
The few first-grade Almighty who were guarding outside the house were horrified, and they retreated hurriedly, heading towards the house where Su Yu was training in isolation.
"What was that heat wave just now? How could there be such a high temperature? What did Su Yuxian do inside? "The Almighty Divine Masters were extremely shocked.
Their intuition told them that Su Yu was fiddling with a dangerous flame in the house, a terrifying flame that could directly destroy them.
Among the group of Almighty Divine Masters, only the second-grade Almighty felt slightly better, but they were still bewildered.
Inside the house, Su Yu wore a faint smile.
After a whole day and night of refining, Su Yu had finally refined the teardrop successfully. The teardrop still existed in his heart, and as long as Su Yu willed it, the Fire Essence in the teardrop would release a part of its flame energy, which would then be expressed through Su Yu's body.
What satisfied Su Yu was that the attribute of the chalcedony was flight!
Yes, the pair of flaming wings behind Su Yu's back was a symbol of that.
Moreover, it wasn't an ordinary pair of wings.
From what he had seen in that brief glimpse just now, the speed he had erupted with had very likely surpassed that of a mid-stage Divine Master, and was comparable to a late-stage Divine Master!
In other words, as long as Su Yu wasn't hunted down by a late-stage Divine Master, he could easily escape.
What was most important to a martial artist? Cultivation method? Magic treasure? Or was it cultivation?
None of them. His life was the most important!
The deeper one cultivated, the more they understood this logic.
As the saying goes, the older one is in Jianghu, the more timid they become.
Until the Fire Essence was used up, Su Yu would have a life-saving talisman. Was there anything more useful than this?
"I really have to thank Gongsun Wuxie and Fairy Ling. I haven't felt the advantage of speed in a long time." Su Yu revealed a faint smile. It had been a long time since he had last cultivated a movement technique, and now that he had once again obtained the characteristics of the Fire Essence Jade, he was quite satisfied.
"Shopkeeper Su, I've already invited the pill vendors on the list according to your request," Ying Luan said from outside the house.
Five days had already passed, and Ying Luan had already invited the elixir vendors, who had risked their lives to give Su Yu elixirs when the Tonglin Elixir Store had been banned.
The leader of this group was the famous Huang Clan. They were ranked fourth among all the elixir vendors in the city, and they were only below Bright Moon Householder.
A total of two people from the Huang family had come. One was the Huang family's patriarch, and the other was the current patriarch, Elder Huang's son.
In the past, when Elder Huang had been in the Tonglin Elixir Store, he had overruled all of his family's objections and given the Tonglin Elixir Store an expensive elixir worth of 50,000 crystals, which had saved Su Yu from being expelled.
Now, the Tonglin Elixir Store was like the sun in the sky, and it had become the focal point of the whole city. Many Fairy experts, as well as early-stage Divine Master experts, wanted to meet Su Yu, but couldn't.
It was a great honor for them to receive Su Yu's invitation at such a time.
Elder Huang, along with the other people who had been invited, waited outside the courtyard.
Su Yu's eyes flickered, and he waved his hand to suppress the fire element aura in the house. He then said, "Sirs, please come in."
This was Su Yu's first time meeting them. The last time they had come, Su Yu hadn't given them a chance to meet.
"Hehe, greetings, Shopkeeper Su." Elder Huang's eyes shone brightly, and he couldn't help but size up Su Yu.
Su Yu smiled and waved his hand. "You don't have to be so polite. Sirs, please take a seat. I invited you here today because I need your help."
The peddlers pricked up their ears. To be honest, they had helped Su Yu in the beginning because Su Yu had won the favor of Alliance Master Zhao of the Elixir Alliance. That was why they helped him, hoping to get some benefits from the Elixir Alliance.
However, the current Tonglin Elixir Store could not be mentioned in the same breath as it was in the past. Its daily elixir sales were an astronomical figure!
In the eyes of outsiders, the martial artists at the entrance had all come for the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid. However, they were acutely aware that the Tonglin Elixir Store's ordinary elixirs also sold a lot of them.
The flow of people was equal to the flow of money. This was an unbreakable truth since the ancient times. With more people, business would naturally be easier.
Every day, at least 80,000 to 90,000 martial artists would gather in front of Su Yu's elixir store. Moreover, they were all wealthy martial artists who could afford the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid.
They lingered around for a long time, so they would naturally linger around the other pills in the pill store. Even if only a few people bought them, there were still too many people.
Therefore, sales were booming every day.
The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid was sold for 100,000 crystals in one day, but very few people knew that the ordinary elixirs were sold for 80,000 crystals in five days.
This kind of sales was even scarier than that of a high-grade elixir store!
If they could become the Tonglin Elixir Store's supplier, it would be like a meat pie falling from the sky!
"Shopkeeper Su, please speak. We will surely do our best." Old Huang chuckled. Their Huang family had contributed the most that day, so it was only natural that they would receive greater benefits.
Su Yu then said, "The elixir store has run out of elixirs, and we are suffering from a lack of supply. Hence, I would like to ask you to help us by providing us with usable elixirs for sale."
It was really about this matter!
All of them were extremely excited, and they all paid close attention to Su Yu, fearing that they would miss even a single word.
"We will surely do our best. Shopkeeper Su, please tell us how much you need, how you will supply it, and what are the prices." Old Huang heaved a long sigh of relief. The 50,000 crystals that he had risked his life to pay had finally paid off.
Su Yu then handed over a list to each of them, which he had prepared beforehand. "It's quite simple. The five of you will divide the supply equally, and each of you will provide the same amount of supply. This is a list of the elixirs that you will provide, and their prices are all listed on it. They are all market prices, so you won't suffer any losses. You can look at the list after you leave."
Old Huang's expression stiffened slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and took the list with a smile.
He had accepted it calmly, but his son couldn't. He couldn't help but feel indignant as he asked, "Shopkeeper Su, may I ask what is the basis for such a division?"
Su Yu replied calmly, "It's obviously based on how much you have helped us before."
"If that's the case, then why did my Huang family provide you with elixirs that cost 50,000 crystals? Why do we only get the same amount as them? According to what I know, the highest value of the elixirs that they have provided us was only 5,000 crystals! It's really hard for the Huang family to accept such a division. "
Su Yu looked at him calmly. "If you aren't satisfied, you can refuse to supply us and let them deal with the supply."
"You!" He couldn't help but feel indignant. Just as he was about to refute Su Yu, Old Huang glared at him, and he reluctantly shut his mouth.
"Since there's nothing else, I won't send you off," Su Yu said as he closed his eyes.
The group of elixir peddlers left in high spirits. They all felt like they had just received a great deal.
Even if they took out 20% of the 80,000 crystals every month, that would still be 16,000 crystals! In a single year, they would be able to earn more than 200,000 crystals! This was a great deal!
Among the crowd, only the Huang family didn't look too happy.
"Haha, Old Huang, we should be thanking you. Back then, it was your generous gift of elixirs that helped the Tonglin Elixir Store recover. Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today."
His words were full of sarcasm. The Huang family had given out such a huge gift, yet the return they received was equal to theirs.
Old Huang was calm, and he chuckled.
However, his son couldn't stay calm. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved and resentful he felt.
"Father, how can our Huang family swallow this insult? If word gets out, we'll become a laughing stock! I don't think that Su Yuxian is a good person. He's ungrateful! "
Old Huang's eyes turned cold. "Shut up!"
"The elixirs that our Huang family gave out were no more than 50,000 crystals, but the supply he provided us is 16,000 crystals every month, which doubled our family's income every month. It only takes three to four months for us to earn back our investment. Are you still not satisfied?" Old Huang saw through everything. "Where can you find such a cheap deal? You should be content with what you have! "
Although he knew his father's rebuke was reasonable, he still found it hard to accept it. "Then why can't he let my Huang family take a few more shares? Since ancient times, there has been no need to worry about the scarcity, but at his age, he doesn't even understand this principle. Hmph! "
He grumbled in his heart, thinking that when he returned to the clan, the clan would definitely be filled with complaints.
Elder Huang was silent, and sighed softly: "Forget it, think of everything on the bright side, with this business, our Huang Family can finally take a breather, and not be pushed out of Sky Border City by a few Alchemist s."
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed when Su Yu assigned him the task.
However, since things had come to this, he could only resign himself to fate.
As he sighed, Old Huang opened the list given to him by Su Yu. He had expected that it would be a few common elixirs.
Who would have thought that there would only be one type of medicinal pill on the list? Elder Huang was stunned. Could it be that the Huang Clan only had one type of medicinal pill? His heart couldn't help but sink.
But when he saw the words clearly, Old Huang's eyes narrowed into slits. His eyes flickered intensely, showing the excitement in his heart.
The son noticed his father's strange expression and looked at him in surprise. "What's wrong, Father? "Ah!!" The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid … "
He cried out in alarm, causing the few peddlers, who had just walked far away, to shiver. They all turned to look at the Huang Family's father and son.
"The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? What Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? What are you talking about?" The few peddlers were all shrewd people, so how could they not notice that something was amiss? They all walked over to take a look at the list.
Old Huang folded the paper and put it in his sleeve casually. He then chuckled and said, "It's nothing. My son just lost his tongue for a moment."
As he spoke, the father and son left the Outer City at a moderate pace. When they returned to their house in the Inner City, they immediately closed the gate and ordered the guards to stand guard outside, forbidding any outsiders from entering.
"Father, father, did I see it wrong? Is it really the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? What does Shopkeeper Su mean? Does he want us to supply the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? "The Huang Family's Master's mouth trembled as the shocking words lingered in his mind.
He had also changed the way he addressed Su Yu from Su Yuxian to Shopkeeper Su.
