Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 224 was a huge shock to my worldview.
Hearing Yao Lao's angry voice, Xiao Yan snapped out of his daze and cautiously asked:
Is something wrong?

"Nothing's right!"

The old man glared angrily at Xiao Yan, seemingly mistaking him for Lin Yu, the one who had refined the spiritual liquid.

"Foundation Building Elixir, Foundation Building Elixir, the key is in the words 'Foundation Building'!"

"As you know, although this is a second-grade pill, it is only effective for those below the level of a fighter, and those below the level of a fighter are mostly young children who cannot withstand the effects of such a strong medicine."

"Therefore, when refining Foundation Building Elixir, it is essential to ensure that the medicinal effects are mild and that the user's body is not harmed."

"And what about this thing?"

"Let alone children below the level of a Dou Zhe, even Dou Zhe and Dou Shi would find it difficult to withstand!"

"In all my years of life, I have never seen such a violent Foundation Establishment Elixir!"

If the refining method is correct, there is only one possibility for this to happen: the raw materials used by the refiner far exceed the grade requirements of the Foundation Establishment Elixir!
Thinking of this, Yao Lao finally couldn't help but glare at Xiao Yan and say, "Quickly ask him what materials he used!"

This was the first time Xiao Yan had ever seen Yao Lao get angry. He found it amusing and quickly opened the chat group.

[Xiao Yan: @Lin Yu, um, what materials did you use to refine the spiritual liquid?]

Lin Yu: It's nothing, just added some local specialties.

[Lin Yu: The recipe for Foundation Establishment Elixir is three Purple Leaf Orchids, two Bone Cleansing Flowers, and one Wood-type Magic Core.]

[Lin Yu: Wood-type magic cores go without saying, I have plenty here. I also have purple-leaf orchids, so there's no need to replace them. The only thing I've never heard of is the Bone Cleansing Flower, so I can only use the Marrow Cleansing Grass, which has a similar effect, as a substitute.]

[Xiao Yan: Marrow Cleansing Grass?]

[Lin Yu: It's a kind of spiritual herb that I cultivated myself. It's a hybrid of the heart-shaped herb from the Marvel universe and herbs from the magical world. It also has the effect of cleansing the marrow and rejuvenating the body.]

[Xiao Yan:...]

Now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like there's anything seriously wrong, does it?
Xiao Yan couldn't help but raise his head and repeat Lin Yu's words.

"You know nothing, kid!"

The old doctor rolled his eyes and said irritably, "So you're talking about medicinal properties without considering dosage?"

"Quickly ask him how old these herbs are, and what about that wood-type magic core? The recipe clearly states it's a first-tier magic core, so what tier did he use?"

[Lin Yu: The Purple Leaf Orchid is ten thousand years old, while the Marrow Cleansing Grass is a bit younger, only about three or four thousand years old.]

[Lin Yu: As for wood-type magic cores, to be honest, I don't know either, because I don't have a clear classification of monster ranks here.]

[Lin Yu: However, the original owner of this magic core was quite powerful. She was known as the 'Thorn Queen Who Hunts Dragons' by the surrounding residents during her lifetime, so its grade should have been quite high...]

As Xiao Yan stared blankly at the messages Lin Yu sent, his expression gradually became dazed.

There's a purple orchid that's been around for ten thousand years, a marrow-cleansing herb that's been around for at least three thousand years, and a thorny monster that's suspected of having already taken human form, once hunted a giant dragon, and is revered as an empress.

Is the Foundation Building Elixir truly worthy of such high-quality raw materials?
"What a waste! What a waste!"

The old doctor was so angry he was trembling. He wished he could cross the world and give this good-for-nothing son he had never met a good scolding.

A high-level magic core at the level of a beast king, a ten-thousand-year-old purple-leaf orchid, and a marrow-cleansing herb he had never seen before, but which was three or four thousand years old...

Such precious medicinal herbs, if in his hands, could at least be refined into a seventh-grade pill capable of attracting pill lightning, but this guy actually used them to refine a mere second-grade Foundation Establishment Elixir!
Looking at Yao Lao, who was still muttering to himself, Xiao Yan blinked and sent a message:
"The good news is that your refining technique should be fine, the bad news is that your teacher is furious with you, and keeps saying that you're wasting resources..."

Lin Yu: Then there's no problem!

As for what Yao Lao called a waste of resources, Lin Yu didn't care.

The ancient herb might be incredibly precious to them, but to Lin Yu, it was no different from roadside weeds.

Within his inner universe, he has already achieved localized control over the flow of time.

As long as there is a pristine spiritual plant, not to mention a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herb, even a hundred-million-year-old spiritual herb is no problem!

[Lin Yu: Tell your teacher that I'm very interested in the alchemists of that world.]

Lin Yu: If he has a better pill formula, or is willing to share his alchemy experience, I can buy it with points, or we can barter according to the rules for high-grade alchemists.

Oh? !

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked up to tell Yao Lao about it.

Upon hearing this, Yao Lao, who had been muttering to himself, immediately shut his mouth and stared at Xiao Yan with shining eyes.

"Quickly ask him if he's willing to trade for the ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herb."

Xiao Yan repeated it in the group chat.

Upon seeing Lin Yu's reply, he was first taken aback, and then his expression gradually became strange.

The old doctor quickly asked, "What did he say?"

Xiao Yan confirmed it again, then whispered, "He said it's no problem, and even asked how much you want. He said he can send you several hundred catties of the Ten Thousand Year Purple Leaf Orchid Grass first..."

The old medicine doctor: "..."

Looking at Yao Lao, who seemed stunned and whose entire worldview had been shaken, Xiao Yan was a little worried and couldn't help but ask in a low voice:

"Teacher, are you okay?"

"Wait, let this old man catch his breath." The old man rubbed his temples, saying incredulously, "Are you sure he said that?"

"of course."

"Is the timeline in that world different from this one? For example, is one day for us a year for them...?"

"..."

Xiao Yan didn't speak, but just glanced silently at the Foundation Establishment Elixir in Yao Lao's hand.

The old apothecary was slightly taken aback, and said with a wry smile, "That's true. If that were the case, the spiritual liquid wouldn't be so violent."

"Young man, it seems you have truly encountered an extraordinary opportunity. In that case, I will not keep anything from you."

"Tell him that I can change the formula, but the knowledge of alchemy is not as simple as he thinks. He needs a master to teach him and correct his mistakes step by step in order to improve his alchemy skills as quickly as possible."

Xiao Yan relayed these words to Lin Yu verbatim.

Lin Yu replied, "It's alright. Trade me the low-level pill formulas first. When I hit a bottleneck, I will definitely visit you and Elder Yao in person."

[Xiao Yan: Alright, then your teacher and I will await Brother Lin's arrival!]

Half an hour later, Xiao Yan gave Lin Yu the pill formula that Yao Lao had written down in the form of a red envelope, in exchange for a large number of spiritual herbs and flowers, as well as various goods listed in the mall.

This also includes a storage ring with a very large internal space.

Sensing the various treasures radiating spiritual light within the ring, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

As a young master from a small family, he had never seen such a vast amount of cultivation resources before!
Unfortunately, these things are too precious, often being thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.

If you sell through an auction house, you're more likely to attract unwanted attention.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

[Su Haoming: Wait, I have a question.]

[Xiao Yan: Brother Su, please speak!]

[Su Haoming: If I remember correctly, the currency in your world is gold coins, right?]

Xiao Yan: That's right.

[Su Haoming: Then why did you even bother selling the spirit herbs?]

[Su Haoming: Gold is the least valuable thing here!]

[Su Haoming: If you browse the tech section, you can exchange one point for a ton of goods!]

What the hell?
Is there such a thing? !

Xiao Yan's eyes widened, and he hurriedly opened the group store, flipped to the technology list he had previously skipped, and sure enough, he found the option to exchange points for various gold, silver and jade stones at the bottom.

"Get rich!"

"Get rich!"

Xiao Yan jumped off the bed excitedly and waved his arms vigorously in the air.

No wonder he was so excited. In his world, a gold coin contains about five grams of gold, and a ton of gold is worth a full two hundred thousand gold coins.

He only needs to spend 100 points to obtain a huge sum of money equivalent to 20 million gold coins.

This solved his immediate financial crisis, and he no longer had to worry about the initial transition period!

Of course, even so, Xiao Yan did not exchange too much gold. He only exchanged about ten tons and put them in his storage ring for future use.

In the long run, points are definitely more important than gold.

If he hadn't already sold the formula to Lin Yu, he would definitely have uploaded it to the group file first and exchanged it for points.

As for now, Xiao Yan was definitely too embarrassed to upload the pill formula. After thinking for a moment, he decided to go to the auction house first. While auctioning the Foundation Establishment Elixir, he would also acquire some cultivation techniques and secret arts to see if he could exchange them for some points.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan immediately took action, donning a black robe and leaving the inn.

……

……

Meanwhile, in his inner universe, Lin Yu looked at the numerous pill formulas before him and couldn't help but smile.

As expected of a former eighth-grade alchemy master, Yao Lao possessed countless pill formulas.

In this first transaction alone, Lin Yu obtained over a hundred different pill formulas.

Although most of these pill formulas are below the seventh grade, it doesn't matter. As long as the raw materials are strong enough, Lin Yu can improve them with his own thinking power.

Don't you see how a mere second-grade Foundation Establishment Elixir transformed into a raging Foundation Establishment Spirit Sea in his hands?

"Unfortunately, most of the raw materials in these pill formulas are special products of that world. No matter how detailed the medicinal properties are, there is still a possibility that no substitutes can be found."

"Looks like I'll have to make time to visit the world of 'Battle Through the Heavens'..."

As Lin Yu thought this, he waved his hand to summon a large number of flowers and plants that shimmered with spiritual light, and began to study these pill formulas.
