"What? No? Not even one? "
Inside a shop, Shi Yan gritted his teeth, his face indignant. "You don't even have the pellets to replenish the Soul Consciousness? What kind of shop do you have? Don't you sell pellets? "
"I'm sorry. Besides the Soul Consciousness replenishing pellets, we have everything else. For example, we have the pellets to replenish the Essence Qi, strengthen the body, stabilize the realm, and prevent the bedevilment. My shop has a lot of them. You can choose whatever you want. The price is negotiable. "
The shop owner smiled apologetically and bowed.
Shi Yan snorted with a cold face, then turned around and left.
Fifteen minutes later.
In the middle of the crowded street of the Spirit Potion Valley, Shi Yan was dispirited.
He had asked around ten shops that sold pellets. Without exception, there wasn't a single pellet that could replenish the Soul Consciousness.
The danger of the dead souls had been spread out in the Dead Soul Mountain range. All the warriors who came to the Spirit Potion Valley had to buy the pellets that could stabilize, replenish, and restore the Soul Consciousness.
The dead souls could erode the soul, which depended on the Sea of Consciousness. If the Sea of Consciousness wasn't stable, the soul would be weakened, and the dead souls could easily attack the dead souls.
Warriors who understood the features of the dead souls all knew how important it was to stabilize and restore the Soul Consciousness. After five or six days, all the pellets that could replenish the Soul Consciousness in the Spirit Potion Valley had been sold out while the prices had skyrocketed.
This kind of pellet was hard to find. The alchemists who could refine this kind of pellet stopped selling it to the shops and kept it for themselves.
For the time being, in the vast Spirit Potion Valley, not a single shop had this kind of pellet for sale. Even if they wanted to buy it at a high price, the alchemists wouldn't allow it.
The news about the dead souls spread like wildfire in the two valleys. The longer it spread, the fiercer it became. All kinds of news about the formidable dead souls were exaggerated.
Everyone was in danger. The alchemists and blacksmiths didn't dare to leave the valleys. Since they specialized in forging weapons and refining pellets, they didn't have enough willpower. Therefore, they considered the pellets that could replenish the Soul Consciousness as the life-saving herbs. They didn't want to sell even one pellet.
Warriors who came here for the dead souls also spent a lot of money to buy them. Shortly, the entire Spirit Potion Valley was wiped out.
Shi Yan had so many Essence Qi crystals, but he couldn't find a source. He regretted it so much.
He was the first person to know about the abnormality of the dead spirits. If only he had been smarter back then, he would have collected more of these pills when everyone was isolated from the world.
It was too late to regret it now. The feeling of not being able to buy anything with money made him quite annoyed.
The cultivators walking to and fro in the middle of the street all had sullen expressions and fierce gazes. When they looked at others, they were like hungry wolves, treating strangers as their enemies.
The harmonious valley suddenly became tense, and the atmosphere was quite oppressive.
Shi Yan beat his chest and stamped his feet, but to no avail. He gradually calmed down and narrowed his eyes, his expression cold. He was ready to find two ignorant fellows to kill and rob.
He was not a good person to begin with, and his hands were stained with blood. With a single thought, he had killed and destroyed many corpses.
Now that there was a shortage of supplies and the shops were running dry, the only way to obtain them was to rob them.
There was no psychological barrier for him to take things by force. As long as he found a suitable target, he didn't mind killing them.
Most of the warriors in this valley weren't good people. He wouldn't feel guilty if he killed some of them.
Right when he was sizing up the passersby with a gloomy gaze that harbored malicious intent, a familiar figure suddenly appeared — Tie Mu.
Tie Mu and the other four hadn't left the Dead Soul Mountain range yet. After a short time, they knew the change of the dead spirits. However, for the three dead spirits, they were still waiting for Cherry's news.
At first glance, Tie Mu saw Shi Yan standing at the entrance of the street. He was startled, keeping quiet like a cicada in winter. He instinctively wanted to avoid him.
At this moment, Shi Yan looked haggard, his face ashen. His eyes were cold and gloomy. The corners of his mouth curled up like a cold saber, as if he was searching for his prey.
Ordinary people didn't know that Shi Yan had left, but Tie Mu had experienced it himself. Seeing him like this, he wanted to hide as far as possible.
"Come here!" Shi Yan snorted, curled his finger, and sneered. "Why are you hiding when you see me? Do you think I'll eat you? "
Tie Mu was so timid, his face sad. He didn't want his kids to die. "Shi Yan -ge, we don't want the dead spirits anymore. What else do you want?"
"Sell me some Soul Consciousness restoring pellets. We can negotiate the price." Shi Yan touched the Fantasy Sky Ring. The top-grade Essence Qi crystals were rolling in his palm. Under the sunlight, they were like precious gems with a dazzling halo.
"I don't have any," Tie Mu complained, shaking his head continually. "I don't have any. When we arrived at the Spirit Potion Valley, they didn't sell this kind of pellets anymore. Anyway, Cherry has promised us that after three days, she will give us some Soul Consciousness pellets. We haven't left yet because we're waiting. "
"Cherry..."
Shi Yan was startled. He cracked a smile. His figure blurred, disappearing in just a blink of an eye.
"This Evil Star. I saw his face just now. It seems he wants to eat people. If someone is unlucky enough to be targeted by him, he won't be able to walk out of the Dead Soul Mountain range. I don't know why I'm scared of him. "Tie Mu wiped the sweat on his forehead, muttering to himself.
"He said that he let us go because we're members of the Gods Sect. Do you think he's a disciple of the Gods Sect?" guessed the girl.
"If he's a member of the Gods Sect, how could he be nameless?" Tie Mu denied. "He should know someone in our sect. He has a good impression of us, but I don't think he's a member of the Gods Sect. With his realm and age, as long as he's a member of the Gods Sect, he should be famous. Nobody should know him. "
Everybody thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.
The Spirit Hall.
"Is Cherry here?" Shi Yan pulled a guard, asking impolitely.
"You are?" The guard was dazzled. He was bewildered for a while, then said respectfully. "I'll call her for you."
This guard used to meet Shi Yan. Seeing Cha Lin's flattering face, he knew that Shi Yan wasn't an ordinary person. He didn't dare to linger, leaving hurriedly.
Not long after that, Cherry arrived, smiling calmly. She politely invited Shi Yan to the back of the hall.
"Old Li is here too..." Cherry pulled him to a corner, lowering her voice. "The other four Elders are in the hall. Why haven't you left yet?"
"I heard that you have pellets to restore the Soul Consciousness. Sell them to me. I'll buy them at a high price." Shi Yan didn't have much interest in Li Zheng Rong's team, so he asked for pellets directly.
Cherry was surprised. "You want to go to the dead souls' evil lair to try your luck?"
"No, I have another use for them." Shi Yan shook his head. While talking, he poured top-grade Essence Crystals into a gunny sack made of gold silk. Shortly, the sack was filled with top-grade Essence Crystals. There were at least several hundred of them. Shi Yan threw the sack to Cherry. "Give me as many as you can."
Cherry was skeptical. She didn't know why he was so hurried. "Here are three bottles of Soul Restoring Pellets for you. Each bottle contains seventy pellets to restore the Soul Consciousness."
"Thank you," ShiYan beamed a smile, turned around, and left without turning his head around.
"Hey!" Cherry shouted. When her voice arose, she found that Shi Yan had disappeared. "That b * stard! What the heck is he doing? Why is he in such a hurry?"
Cherry stomped her foot, looking at the sack of top-grade Essence Crystals. She was both surprised and happy.
As a Hall Guard, her annual salary was only fifty top-grade Essence Crystals. To her, this sack of top-grade Essence Crystals wasn't a small number. It was enough for her to work as a Hall Guard for three or four years.
However, it wasn't what she wanted. She had a lot of doubts. When she finally met Shi Yan and wanted to ask him, she found that Shi Yan had disappeared. He didn't even tell her his address.
"Cherry, who's that kid? Why did he give you so many Essence Crystals? Are you guys …? " A shriveled Alchemist observed everything in secret. He quietly came over and asked with a smile.
"It's none of your business!" Cherry's face was cold. She snorted and didn't care about him. She took the Essence Crystals and walked to the back of the hall.
"What? That kid just came?" Lin Ya Qi jumped up from her seat in the quiet room of the back of the hall. "Where is he?"
"He left. When I wanted to chase after him, I couldn't find him anymore," Cherry explained carefully.
Lin Ya Qi glared at her unhappily, talking arrogantly. "What does that b * stard come here for?"
"He wants to buy pellets to supplement the Soul Consciousness. I gave him …" Cherry told her what he wanted.
"Pellets to supplement the Soul Consciousness." Lin Ya Qi giggled, squinting her eyes. "Seems he's interested in the dead souls' evil lair. Good, good. After several days, the young generation of the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Temple will gather. I don't like some of them, but I'm not their opponent. That b * stard stays here. He can help me teach them a lesson!"
Lin Ya Qi was full of interest.
Cherry kept her mouth shut, not daring to talk more.
The news that the young generation of the Pure Land, the Radiant God Cult, and the Devil Temple was about to arrive had spread out in the Dead Soul Mountain range.
Those people followed their seniors to this place. On one hand, they wanted to kill the dead souls, and on the other hand, they wanted to train themselves. Also, they wanted to collect treasures from the dead souls' evil lair.
These young hotshots of the three ancient factions always had their eyes on the top of their heads in the Divine Great Land. The men were domineering, and the women were arrogant. All of them had cruel deeds, which made them the characters that everybody was afraid of.
Although Cherry was an alchemist, her realm wasn't high enough. She had to stay away from these people, and didn't dare to compete with them.
As Lin Ya Qi was Li Zheng Rong's disciple, of course, she wasn't afraid of them. However, her realm was a little low, so she wasn't their opponent.
In the past, when they fought, she always suffered a little loss. Thus, she always had a grudge in her heart, but she didn't have a solution to deal with them.
Now that she had Shi Yan, her mind became active. Of course, she wanted to use the relationship with Shi Yan to take revenge.
"The Precious Tool Valley and the Spirit Potion Valley aren't that big. As long as he's in the valley, I can find him. Harrumph!" Lin Ya Qi contemplated for a while. She squinted, smiling and calculating. She didn't tell Cherry, walking out of the Spirit Hall alone, wandering around the valley surrounded by evil wolves.
Cherry waited until Lin Ya Qi had gone far, then hurried to find Cha Lin, telling him the news that she had left.
On the other side, Shi Yan got the Soul Restoring Pellet, jumping into the secret chamber he had rented. He was trying his best to recover his consumed Soul Consciousness, preparing to explore the mysteries of the Teleportation Formation.
