In the next few days, he spent a lot of effort. Every day, after taking care of the medicine field, he would go to the sect to look up information on how to condense spiritual water.
After two days, he made some unexpected discoveries.
Condensing spiritual water was much more difficult than Chu Chen had imagined. In other words, the success rate was much lower than he had imagined.
Although many of the disciples around him had condensed spiritual water, almost none of them succeeded on their first try. Instead, they had failed several times before finally condensing spiritual water.
When condensing spiritual water, the quality of the spiritual water condensed on the first try was the highest. Every time one failed, the quality of the spiritual water condensed would be worse.
The quality of spiritual water determined a cultivator's future. The better the quality of the spiritual water, the greater their future achievements. The worse the quality of the spiritual water, the more difficult it would be to cultivate. In the end, the cultivator would stagnate.
Therefore, every cultivator dreamt of being able to successfully condense spiritual water on their first try. This was to seek a bright future for their future cultivation.
Chu Chen remembered how Tong Meng had managed to condense spiritual water on her first try. Many people were so envious that their blood was about to drip out.
The quality of spiritual water was determined by its clarity. The better the quality, the clearer the spiritual water. After several failures, the spiritual water condensed would often be very turbid.
Because the success rate of condensing spiritual water was very low, the "Profound Cold Crystal Pill" that could increase the success rate of condensing spiritual water became a rare commodity.
Junior Sister Tong Meng was able to successfully condense spiritual water on her first try. Although she was a genius herself, the "Profound Cold Crystal Pill" that Elder Huang had given her was also very important.
Although the "Profound Cold Crystal Pill" was only a level two pill, it was very rare. First, the sects were crazily buying it so that their disciples could condense spiritual water of high quality.
Second, it was very difficult to refine pills for breaking through to the next realm. The entire refining process was very complicated and tedious. It was a great test for alchemists.
More importantly, the main ingredients needed to refine the Cold Crystal Xuan Pill were all local products of the extreme north. Coupled with the fact that several large sects in the north monopolized these ingredients, the ingredients needed to refine the Cold Crystal Xuan Pill were extremely rare.
Chu Chen had asked Elder Lingxin before. She said that she lacked the materials for the Profound Cold Crystal Pill, otherwise, she could have helped Chu Chen refine it.
Unwilling to give up, Chu Chen strolled around the sect's market several times. In the entire market, there wasn't even a single Profound Cold Crystal Core for sale. It was difficult to find an authentic one.
In the end, Chu Chen searched the sect's trading platform with a glimmer of hope, but he found nothing.
However, when he searched for his "Thunder Grass", the results surprised him. A few days ago, when he was looking for the "Profound Cold Crystal Core", he had seen the old shopkeeper of the medicine shop a few times. He had said that other than the starting price of one spirit stone, no one else had bid.
Chu Chen didn't expect that the deal would be completed on the fifth day. He looked at the price of the deal. It was a bright red 500 spirit stones. This made him wonder if his eyes were playing tricks on him. After rubbing his eyes several times, he finally confirmed that the number was correct.
Last time, it was only 100 spirit stones. This time, after deducting the handling fee, it was actually 450 spirit stones. Chu Chen felt like he was going crazy. Who was the spendthrift this time? He directly bid for it with 500 spirit stones.
Chu Chen hurried to the market. The old shopkeeper was smiling so widely that his eyes couldn't even open. He kept trying to please Chu Chen, serving him tea and water. He was afraid that he would neglect Chu Chen, this big money tree.
"Little brother, we really have a good cooperation. You can keep getting rare medicines. Your future will be bright!"
"I only have one question. Did Elder Lingxin buy it again?" Chu Chen scratched his head and asked. If Elder Lingxin was the spendthrift again, he would feel embarrassed.
"No, the person who bought the Thunder Grass came from above."
The old shopkeeper pointed to the sky mysteriously. This gesture was self-evident. Every disciple of the Biquan Xianzong knew that it represented the peak of the mountain.
In other words, the peak of the Biquan Xianzong was where the highest echelons were located. It was a place that most ordinary disciples would never be able to set foot in their entire lives.
"It is very likely that someone at the level of a grand elder has gone mad. However, this matter cannot be spread out." The old shopkeeper's voice was getting lower and lower.
Chu Chen saw the old shopkeeper's mysterious appearance and couldn't help but feel a little amused. Who cared if someone went mad? As long as the medicine could be sold for a good price, it was fine.
"The total is 500 spirit stones. After deducting the handling fee, I will give you 450 spirit stones. Is that right?" When the old shopkeeper talked about calculating, he immediately returned to his business self.
"Give me 50 spirit stones first. I am going to leave the 400 spirit stones with you."
"Little brother, I am not a bank here. I will not give you any interest." The old shopkeeper smiled embarrassedly.
"I want you to help me buy the materials for the Profound Cold Crystal Pill. Buy as many as you can for 400 spirit stones." Chu Chen told him his plan.
"Little brother, you want to refine the Profound Cold Crystal Pill yourself?" The old shopkeeper looked at Chu Chen as if he was crazy.
"Don't worry about that. Just help me gather the materials."
"Little brother, to be honest, refining the Profound Cold Crystal Pill yourself is too cheap. There aren't many materials for the Profound Cold Crystal Pill on the market. In my shop, I can make about 15 sets of supplementary materials. As for the rest, I can ask a few of my old friends and go to the market to buy them. I can make about 20 sets of supplementary materials. However, it's just a supplementary material. The most important main material is called 'Cold Crystal Mysterious Soul'. I can't do anything about it, you have to get it yourself. "
Chu Chen was stunned. "Profound Cold Crystal Soul? Where can I find such a thing?"
"The Profound Cold Crystal Soul is a special material that can only be found in extremely cold places. You can go to the Extreme Cold Snow Mountain in the north to look for it. I don't know how to get it. After all, I'm just a medicine seller. "The shopkeeper said with a smile.
"Well, then I'll have to trouble you to prepare the supplementary materials for me. I'll find a way to refine the Profound Cold Crystal Soul myself." Chu Chen nodded and walked out of the pharmacy.
He went to the Book Collection Pavilion again and found that there wasn't much information about the Profound Cold Crystal Soul. It only vaguely mentioned that it could be found in some extremely cold places. As for how to get it, he had to go and see for himself.
It seemed like he would have to personally make a trip to the Great Frost Snow Mountain if there was really no other choice.
When he came back from the Book Collection Pavilion, it was already late at night. Thinking that he had been busy all day and didn't take care of the medicine field, Chu Chen quickly walked to the medicine field. He hoped that he could take care of the medicine field as soon as possible and go to Elder Lingxin early in the morning to explain the situation.
Just as he walked to the medicine field, Chu Chen's heart moved slightly. A strange feeling appeared in his heart and made him smile. He tiptoed to the side of a lush spiritual herb.
