"The 《Basics of Alchemy》 costs five hundred spirit stones. The 《Vermillion Bird Pill Technique》 is a complete set of alchemy seals, so it's much more precious. It costs three thousand spirit stones. If it weren't for the fact that my brother and I need spirit stones for our cultivation, I wouldn't have bought this set of ancestral pill techniques. "The little girl looked at the jade slip inscribed with the 《Vermillion Bird Pill Technique》 with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
It should be known that in the Immortal Cultivation World, as long as one had a little bit of cultivation, they would know a little about alchemy. If one had a cauldron that could emit True Samadhi Fire, one could basically refine some simple pills. However, the failure rate was quite high. Naturally, the importance of a complete set of alchemy techniques was highlighted.
Pill techniques were actually seals that were inserted into the pill cauldron during alchemy. These seals could help purify the impurities of the medicinal ingredients in the pill cauldron. It could better fuse various medicinal ingredients together and get rid of the impurities. It could also control the temperature of the fire, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and integrate it into the pill. It could better assist in alchemy.
It could be said that in alchemy, a good set of pill techniques was incomparably important.
The 《Vermillion Bird Pill Technique》 wasn't a very powerful pill technique. According to the classification of Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow, it was only a set of Yellow level pill techniques. However, compared to the rarity of complete pill techniques in the cultivation world, this set of pill techniques could be said to be extremely precious. If it was taken out, there would definitely be no shortage of people who would want to buy it.
"Three thousand spirit stones. Sell it to me. This young master wants it. A complete set of pill techniques is quite rare in the cultivation world. I didn't expect to see it here. Xue Da, give her the spirit stones. " Just when Sakra was thinking about how to buy these two things, suddenly, a voice with a trace of arrogance directly butted in. The voice sounded as if it didn't care about the spirit stones at all.
Moreover, as he spoke, a hand directly reached over and grabbed the jade slip that the little girl had pointed out alone on the ground, wanting to take it in his hand.
"Yes! Young Master. "A respectful response was heard.
"Hmph!!"
Di Shitian's originally indifferent gaze suddenly changed a few times before turning cold. His right hand instantly stretched out and transformed into a claw, grabbing forward with lightning speed. It landed on that person's wrist and forcefully grabbed it. Then, with a flick of his wrist, he didn't even use his Demon Qi. He directly used the strength of his Demon Qi to push that hand back.
"Bang!!"
This unforeseen event happened too quickly. It was over in the blink of an eye. The owner of that hand was naturally shaken by this huge force. A muffled sound rang out in the air.
"Who are you? How dare you attack me? Are you tired of living? "
Sakra stood up and looked to his side. In front of him, a young man dressed in blood-red clothes appeared in front of him. This person had an evil look on his face and looked at him with a cold expression. His eyes were full of arrogance and loftiness. A faint blood-red light flashed in his eyes, full of murderous intent.
Behind this blood-red clothed youth, there were two cold-faced men with the same evil aura. One on the left and one on the right, their bodies also emitted a threatening aura in an instant, pressing towards Di Shitian.
"Hmph, first come, first served. I wanted to buy this jade slip first. You interfered without reason, and you still want to ask who I am?" The blood-red clothed youth's voice was cold, and Di Shitian's voice was even colder. There was a trace of ruthlessness in his voice. He was not afraid of the aura that was pressing towards him. His eyes were like two sharp arrows, piercing towards the three people in an instant. The domineering aura pressed towards the three people like a tide.
At this time, the other cultivators in the valley noticed the unforeseen event one by one, and they all gathered around. They began to discuss in low voices. However, when many people saw the blood-red clothed youth, a trace of fear flashed across their faces, and their feet unconsciously took a step back.
"Tsk tsk!! Interesting, I didn't expect to meet someone who is not afraid of death in the Harp Melody Valley. Is our Blood Cloud Sect too kind? " The blood-red clothed youth felt the pressure from Di Shitian's body, and his face changed slightly. However, the strange thing was that he was not suppressed by this pressure. Instead, there was a strange light in his eyes. He looked at Di Shitian with a faint smile, and a cold murderous intent flashed in the corner of his eyes.
"Hmph!!"
Di Shitian did not show any signs of weakness.
If they really wanted to fight, he would not back down. Retreating and tolerating were not his character.
Just when the swords were about to be drawn. A series of hurried footsteps quickly came from the depths of the Purple Bamboo Forest.
"Both of you, please wait …" A faintly strange voice suddenly sounded in the valley. This voice seemed to contain a strange power, and it suddenly turned the tense atmosphere and the dense pressure that filled the surroundings into nothingness. It was as if a breeze had brushed past, taking away all the murderous aura.
"Today is the Harp Melody Valley, and it is not suitable for fighting. Consider yourself lucky!!" The blood-red clothed youth revealed a trace of a strange smile, and quickly retracted his aura. Looking at the newcomer, he smiled and bowed, "Blood Cloud Sect's Xue Yinyi greets Uncle Qin. It is only a small conflict, how would I dare to trouble senior to come here. It is really this junior's fault. "
"So it is Nephew Xue Yinyi. There is no need to be so polite." The newcomer was dressed in Confucian robes, and had the temperament of an elegant person. Although his footsteps were hurried, his temperament was not the slightest bit messy, and one could see the elegant demeanor of a scholar everywhere. His appearance was that of a middle-aged man, and he looked to be in high spirits as he smiled lightly.
Behind him followed a person dressed like a butler, and a few disciples.
When the cultivators in the valley saw this person, their eyes all revealed respectful expressions. Obviously, they all roughly knew who this person was. Speaking of which, this was none other than the head of the Qin Family, Qin Xuan. His cultivation base was said to be that of a Core Formation cultivator. This kind of cultivation base was basically something that most cultivators could only look up to.
"I don't know why the two of you have a conflict. You should know that fighting has always been prohibited in my Zither Melody Valley. " Qin Xuan raised his eyes and swept his gaze over Di Shitian. Feeling the clear indifference emanating from his body, as well as the natural awe-inspiring prestige that seemed to possess the domineering aura of a king, he couldn't help but carefully observe him a few times.
"Senior … Senior Qin." Just when Di Shi Tian was about to speak, the little girl who had been left to the side said with some apprehension, "This matter is actually because these two seniors wanted to buy a jade slip of the 《Vermillion Bird Pill Formula》 from this junior's hands, thus the conflict arose …" The little girl saw that this matter was caused by her, so she didn't stay out of it. Although her expression was apprehensive, she still explained the whole story of the matter in a few words.
"So it was like that." When Qin Xuan heard this, realization dawned on his face. After looking at Di Shitian and Xue Yinyi, he pondered for a moment and said, "Since the two of you have taken a fancy to this pill art, then how about this? The one who offers the highest price and suits this little girl's preferences will be the one who owns it. I don't know if this is a suitable solution."
After a slight pause, he proposed a solution. In fact, this seemed to be a bit similar to an auction. However, there were only two people being auctioned. One was Di Shitian, and the other was Xue Yinyi.
"This junior has no objections to Uncle Qin's words. I am willing to pay five thousand spirit stones for this pill art. " Xue Yinyi confidently smiled and looked at the little girl. As soon as he opened his mouth, he nearly doubled the price. It could be said that this wasn't a big deal.
"I don't have spirit stones, but I do have a gourd of monkey wine." Di Shitian's eyes flickered, but he also knew that this wasn't a good time to fight. If his identity was exposed, it would be very difficult for him to leave. He swiped the storage pouch at his waist and a palm-sized jade gourd appeared in his hand. This was a gourd of monkey wine. Of course, it was only ordinary. It wasn't a hundred-year-old treasure. He said, "Every time you take a small sip, it will be comparable to a Spirit Gathering Pill, and even slightly surpass it. The power contained in the wine is gentle and there is no danger. I will use this gourd of monkey wine to exchange for the pill art. "
When these words were spoken, the surrounding cultivators' eyes immediately lit up.
Many people even cried out in surprise.
"It's really monkey wine? I heard that it's not ordinary wine, but spiritual wine. It's a holy item for cultivation. For Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment cultivators, it's definitely a holy item for increasing their cultivation. "
"Monkey wine is an immortal item among wines. It's said that it's incomparably delicious."
"I remember that last time in the Gathering Immortal City, a gourd of monkey wine was auctioned for a sky-high price of more than ten thousand spirit stones. It's a good item that can only be encountered but not sought. "
For a moment, even Qin Xuan's eyes couldn't help but shine. He deeply looked at Di Shitian's face. From time to time, his gaze wandered around the jade gourd.
However, Xue Yinyi's expression changed. He didn't expect that Di Shitian would be able to take out such a treasure.
"I want the monkey wine. I'll give you the pill art. Also, I'll give you this 《The First Guide to Pill Concoction》. " When the little girl heard this, she clearly knew what kind of good item the monkey wine was. Her eyes sparkled as she quickly grabbed the jade slips and ancient books and placed them in Di Shitian's hands. Then, she took the jade gourd and gently opened it.
Immediately, bursts of strange wine fragrance filled the air from the gourd, causing those who smelled it to feel refreshed and recover in an instant.
"That's right, this is indeed monkey wine!" Qin Xuan nodded, thoroughly confirming the authenticity of the wine.
After he finished speaking, he swept his gaze over the surrounding cultivators and said with a smile, "Young talents coming to my Zither Melody Valley are all giving face to the Qin Clan. This time, my daughter has called for a matchmaking convention because she wants to choose the most outstanding one among the many young talents. The convention will be held in three days. I hope that everyone can conserve their energy during these few days. If anyone causes trouble in the valley and fights privately, my Qin Clan will have no choice but to expel them."
The first sentence was polite, but the second sentence faintly carried a kind of deterrence, immediately causing the cultivators in the valley to shiver.
"Uncle, rest assured. If anyone causes trouble in the valley, they will become enemies with my Blood Cloud Sect. This junior will definitely not forgive them. "Xue Yinyi deeply looked at Di Shitian, traces of fierce killing intent flashing in his eyes. He chuckled on the surface. However, in his heart, he said coldly, "Hmph, this brat who came out of nowhere actually dares to oppose this young master. These three days, I'll let you be free. When we enter the Zither Realm, if I don't kill you, how can the hatred in my heart be appeased?"
Unknowingly, Di Shitian made an enemy.
He naturally saw the killing intent in Xue Yinyi's eyes. However, if Xue Yinyi wanted to kill him, how could Di Shitian not want to kill him?
[Hehe, give me some recommendations. I'm doing my best to pave the way and make this Zither Realm more exciting. While I'm at it, I'll also dig a few holes. If you're interested, you can guess.]
