Chapter 109: Defective Jadeite Ganoderma (Fourth Update)

Qin Ming took the jade box and looked at it carefully.

However, this chalcedony ganoderma had a broken gap in the middle, as if it had been damaged by an object.

The medicinal properties have leaked out and almost nothing is left.

Moreover, this plant of Chalcedony Ganoderma is less than a hundred years old.

This is far from the three hundred years of medicinal power required in the foundation-building pill recipe.

To others, this chalcedony ganoderma is of little use.

However, for Qin Ming, this problem does not exist.

"I wonder what it would take for Senior Shen to be willing to sell it?"

Qin Ming asked bluntly.

"Three thousand spirit stones, or items of equivalent value will do." Shen Yuanxiong said after a little thought.

Qin Ming weighed the jade box and frowned, "Isn't this price a bit too high? After all, only one tenth of its medicinal properties remain."

"Well, in that case, then I'll take a step back and ask for 2,500 spirit stones." Shen Yuanxiong's face twitched slightly, realizing that he had asked for too high a price, and then changed his words.

"make a deal."

Qin Ming appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually extremely happy.

He thought it would cost a lot to harvest a piece of Chalcedony Ganoderma, but he didn't expect it to be much lower than he imagined.

As long as he has this chalcedony ganoderma, he can revive it and ripen several copies.

It’s enough for him to make the elixir.

He calmly took out the spirit stone from his storage bag and handed it to Shen Yuanxiong.

Transaction is over.

"Since Senior Shen has important matters to attend to at home, we will not disturb him and will leave first." Qin Ming achieved his goal and his mood turned from gloomy to sunny.

Shen Yuanxiong said politely, "Why don't you sit for a while? I'll have someone entertain you two."

"No, Senior Shen is busy first."

"In that case, I'm sorry for the delay. When I finish my work some other day, I'll come to Jingxue Pavilion to have a drink with you two." Shen Yuanxiong then opened the door and politely escorted the two out.

Just as several people were walking through the courtyard corridor.

A bearded man came towards them in a hurry. He had dark skin and exuded the magical power fluctuations of the early stage of foundation building.

As soon as he saw Shen Yuanxiong, he cursed and said, "Hurry up, old ghost Shen, I want your half-dead chalcedony ganoderma!"

"I have another use."

When the bearded man approached, he found two people beside Shen Yuanxiong, one of whom was Gu Qingzhao from Jingxue Pavilion.

Then he restrained his attitude and bowed to her, "Pavilion Master Gu is here too."

Gu Qingzhao nodded slightly in response.

As for Qin Ming, this young Qigong practitioner, he was simply ignored by him.

Shen Yuanxiong frowned and glared at the bearded man, then said, "Luo Rong, what are you yelling about? You are a step too late. I have already sold the Jadeite Ganoderma to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"Ah?! What Fellow Daoist Qin?" the bearded man named Luo Rong said in disbelief.

Shen Yuanxiong looked at Fellow Daoist Qin and introduced him, "This is Fellow Daoist Qin, an honorary guest of Jingxue Pavilion."

"He is a true second-level alchemy master."

Luo Rong was shocked, and then he turned to Qin Ming again: "It turned out to be Master Qin Dan, heroes emerge young!"

However, he still asked, "I wonder if Brother Qin can give up and sell that Jadeite Ganoderma to me."

"I am willing to pay double the amount of spirit stones to buy it."

"This thing is very useful to me, I'm sorry I can't sell it." Qin Ming refused directly.

Luo Rong was stunned. This young Qigong practitioner in front of him seemed to be not afraid of him at all, relying on his status as a second-level alchemist.

Seeing that Gu Qingzhao was also there, he didn't know what to say. His expression changed several times before he sighed, "Oh, forget it. It turns out that this thing is not meant for me."

After saying that, he said goodbye to a few people and left embarrassedly.

"Hehe, this is Luo Rong's personality. Please don't blame me." Shen Yuanxiong said with a smile.

He just walked off with his front foot.

There was a commotion at the gate, and an imposing old man with blond hair, dressed in a yellow robe, walked slowly into the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

When Shen Yuanxiong saw this person coming, he greeted the two of them and hurried to meet him.

"Master Sun, please go to the side hall and take a rest. Everyone is here and we will start soon."

Gu Qingzhao introduced Qin Ming, "This is Master Alchemist Sun Jinnian from Canghai Immortal City."

Qin Ming nodded.

Sun Jinnian also saw Gu Qingzhao and Qin Ming, then walked over and greeted Gu Qingzhao indifferently.

Then he entered the side hall.

Today, Master Sun Dan’s status in Canghai Fairy City is second only to Master Jindan.

After Qin Ming and the others left.

Sun Jinnian sat on the chair, took a sip of tea calmly, and asked Shen Yuanxiong, "What is Gu Qingzhao doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanxiong immediately recounted what had just happened in detail.

When he heard that the young Qi-cultivating practitioner beside Gu Qingzhao was not only a second-level alchemist, but also had made the anti-aging pill.

There was an imperceptible strangeness across his face.

Sun Jinnian commented calmly, "My dear friend Qin is probably a person with outstanding talent in alchemy. He can even refine the Rejuvenating Pill."

"In addition to this, he may have inherited a very advanced alchemist heritage."

"Otherwise, after hearing what you said, I have already thought about accepting a disciple."

Shen Yuanxiong did not expect that Master Sun Dan's evaluation was so high.

Because he knew nothing about alchemy, he asked, "Can he make a foundation-building pill?"

"Of course. The difficulty of refining the Rejuvenating Pill is even higher than that of the Foundation Establishing Pill."

"The art of alchemy is also a way to apply one method to all methods."

"Since we can refine the anti-aging pill, we can definitely refine the foundation-building pill." Sun Jinnian explained slowly.

Shen Yuanxiong was stunned, "Ah?!"

He suddenly felt like he had missed something.

"But he probably won't be able to refine the defective Jade Marrow Ganoderma he got, right?"

Sun Jinnian seemed to be amused when he heard this, "Humph, there are thousands of secret methods of alchemy, maybe he has a method to replenish the medicinal properties?"

At this time, Shen Yuanxiong also remembered Luo Rong's words.

"Why do I feel like I lost money on that Chalcedony Ganoderma?"

Sun Jinnian said, "Okay, go and prepare. I'll wait here. I've made some progress in my alchemy skills recently. I promise to successfully refine a furnace for you this time."

These words gave Shen Yuanxiong some peace of mind.

His face was filled with joy, and he immediately went out to work.

……

On the other hand, Qin Ming got the crucial main ingredient, and felt relieved.

Now we are still missing the next two rare auxiliary ingredients, but none of them is as hard to find as Lingsuizhi.

As long as you pay attention to collecting, I believe you will be able to get it all together soon.

Qin Ming stayed in Canghai Fairy City for one more day to inquire about the whereabouts of these two auxiliary ingredients.

Regrettably, with little success.

This day.

He was looking for clues about auxiliary materials in a spiritual medicine shop.

A familiar voice came from behind.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, what a coincidence!"

Fellow Daoist Qin looked back in the direction of the voice and saw a bearded monk greeting him with a smile.

It was the foundation-building cultivator, Luo Rong.
