Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Looking at the other woman's expression, Ye Liuyun felt a sense of helplessness, because if the pill was really poisonous, then this maid would definitely be a bad omen.

Chapter 930 Starting a business by selling medicine (5K)

The maid vomited for a long time, but couldn't vomit anything, because the pill dissolved as soon as it entered her stomach.

"What kind of pills did you give me?" the maid asked anxiously when she couldn't vomit them up.

But just as she finished speaking, she suddenly shuddered violently, as if she had sensed something, and her eyes widened in shock.

The next moment, a surge of immortal energy erupted from her body, and her immortal meridians were opened.

Upon seeing this, Liu Shuran immediately used her divine sense to carefully examine the maid's condition. After confirming that the maid's meridians had been opened, she was overjoyed.

This shows that Ye Liuyun's pills were genuine and not a joke.

"Haha, that's wonderful! Sect Leader Ye's pills really work! I wonder how many of these pills you have? If you only have one, that won't be enough!" Liu Shuran asked with great joy.

As for the maid, she was also staring blankly at her hands. The power that had been sealed upon her arrival in the Immortal Realm had been released today. Although the laws of the Immortal Realm prevented her from releasing the power of the lower realm, having power was better than having no power at all.

They endured humiliation to work for others, all for the sake of one day opening their immortal meridians. Now, her cultivation path has officially begun.

"What kind of pill is this? It can open up the immortal meridians in my body. Isn't it said that one must cultivate immortal techniques to open up the immortal meridians? Manager Liu, what's going on?" The female cultivator looked at Liu Shuran with great curiosity.

Liu Shuran chuckled.

"Little girl, you're lucky. You looked so angry just now, but you're happy now, aren't you? After taking this pill, you've essentially cultivated a terrestrial immortal-level technique. Alright, you can leave now. There's nothing more for you here." Liu Shuran didn't waste any more words with the other party, because she was already certain that the pill was real.

The female cultivator nodded happily, bowed several times to Liu Shuran, and then left the private room.

Ye Liuyun and Liu Shuran, on the other hand, continued their conversation.

"I refined these pills myself. As long as there are enough medicinal materials, I can make as many as I need," Ye Liuyun replied.

These words reassured Liu Shuran.

“That’s excellent, that’s excellent! Now, let’s discuss the pricing of this pill,” Liu Shuran said with a smile.

For low-level cultivators who haven't activated their microphones, this Immortal Essence Pill is equivalent to allowing them to learn a Divine-level or Earth Immortal-level cultivation technique.

However, Ye Liuyun is currently unaware of the exact level of strength of an immortal who opens their immortal meridians by consuming Immortal Essence Pills, comparable to an immortal who cultivates a specific grade of cultivation technique.

She still has many things to finish, and only after she finishes those can she slowly explore them.

"This pill is something I created myself. To be honest, I don't know how to price it, but it should at least be comparable to the value of a low-grade Earth Immortal manual, right?" Ye Liuyun said.

Seeing Ye Liuyun's pricing, Liu Shuran also had to think carefully about whether the price was appropriate.

First of all, she didn't think the price of the pills was too high, but rather too low. Immortal techniques still require cultivation to be effective, but these pills directly grant the user power after consumption, which is quite different.

Furthermore, the effects of this pill on a god-level immortal are probably the same as those on a terrestrial immortal, so she was also struggling with how to price it.

In the immortal realm, these things don't need to be certified by others; it's a world where you earn your living through your own abilities.

"Sect Leader Ye, are you sure you want to set a price for a low-grade Earth Immortal Technique?" Liu Shuran asked again.

Ye Liuyun nodded. She actually wanted to say that she could lower the price further, because even if it was the price of a cultivator at the Divine Stability level, she would still make a profit.

However, these pills cannot be sold in large quantities. She felt that if they were sold in large quantities, there would be problems. Therefore, she could not sell them in large quantities. She would only sell one batch at a time.

"I don't think we should sell these pills in large quantities. Let's sell a hundred a month. How about it, Manager Liu? Will you buy them? We'll sell them for the price of a low-grade Earth Immortal cultivation technique. But if your esteemed merchant guild can sell them for more, then it's all on you," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Liu Shuran agreed without hesitation.

“Okay, no problem, absolutely no problem. My Yingheng Chamber of Commerce will take these pills. Currently, a low-grade Earth Immortal level cultivation technique costs about 20,000 Immortal Crystals. I will buy your Immortal Essence Pills at the price of 20,000 Immortal Crystals each,” Liu Shuran said with a smile.

In other words, one hundred Immortal Essence Pills are equivalent to two million Immortal Crystals. If Ye Liuyun then uses these two million Immortal Crystals to buy materials for refining Immortal Essence Pills, she will soon become extremely wealthy. Moreover, she has more than just this one type of pill; she will definitely develop even better pills in the future.

"No problem, deal. Let's trade a batch to test it out first. Here are one hundred Immortal Essence Pills, take a look." Ye Liuyun took out a large porcelain bottle filled with pills.

Liu Shuran examined the pills carefully. Their luster and appearance were exactly the same as the previous one, so they were definitely not fake. Besides, there was no reason for the other party to tamper with these pills.

You can't be too focused on business; you have to take some risks.

Two million immortal crystals were a sum that Liu Shuran could decide. She quickly called the maid outside the door to let her get the money.

Next, we'll talk about the Three Flowers Gathering Qi Pill.

However, when it came to this pill, Liu Shuran hesitated, because she herself did not have an accurate price for it.

If the pill's effects are genuine, it is priceless. However, there is only one pill, and it is one that has never been heard of before. How can we determine its efficacy?

"Sect Leader Ye, how do you plan to set the price of this pill? To be honest, I can't make a judgment," Liu Shuran said with a hint of helplessness.

Ye Liuyun naturally understood that Liu Shuran was in a difficult position.

"Didn't we say before that this pill would be handed over to your Yingheng Chamber of Commerce for sale? Sell as many as you can, and we'll split the profits 30/70. Your chamber of commerce is guaranteed to make a profit," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

However, what Liu Shuran was thinking about at this moment was not whether the pill could be sold, but the risks it brought. Their Yingheng Chamber of Commerce only had some strength in Yunze Prefecture. Outside of this region, they were nothing.

If they sell this pill and attract the powerful forces in the inner circle, they will be unable to protect it, not to mention that the Heavenly Court has now lifted the restrictions on immortal sects in various places.

If one thing isn't handled well, it will spark a fierce competition among the strongest.

“Sect Leader Ye, you know that’s not what I’m worried about. To be honest, our Yingheng Chamber of Commerce is afraid we can’t handle this pill. How about this, please wait a moment. I’ve already informed my elders, and they’re on their way. If we’re going to sell this pill, we need to come up with a foolproof plan,” Liu Shuran said.

Ye Liuyun could understand.

“Alright, I have plenty of patience. By the way, since we have some time now, why don’t we talk about long-term cooperation? I wonder if Manager Liu would be interested?” Ye Liuyun asked.

Liu Shuran's eyes lit up. If Ye Liuyun could cooperate with their chamber of commerce in the long term, that would definitely be a good thing. It would be a fool not to make money when it's available.

“Great! If Sect Leader Ye is looking for chambers of commerce to cooperate with in Yunze Prefecture, then our Yingheng Chamber of Commerce is definitely the best choice,” Liu Shuran said confidently.

The two began to have an in-depth conversation. The gist of it was that Ye Liuyun had entrusted the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce with the full authority to sell her pills, but Liu Shuran could only make a partial decision on this matter.

The Liu family is not the dominant force in the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce. If there is a big business opportunity, it is difficult for them to monopolize it, unless they break away from the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce and establish their own independent chamber of commerce.

In fact, if Ye Liuyun wanted to, she could set up her own chamber of commerce to sell the pills she refined, but she currently has too many things to do, and it is much more difficult to establish a power in the immortal realm than in the lower realm.

On the surface, the Longevity Sect currently lacks both powerful figures and a solid foundation; it has nothing. Moreover, no one else is capable of helping it, so it can only rely on itself to slowly build things up, which is bound to be exhausting.

During their conversation, the two million immortal crystals were delivered to Ye Liuyun. Ye Liuyun also asked Liu Shuran to bring over all the cultivation techniques from the Divine Human level to the Earth Immortal level that their chamber of commerce currently possessed.

Although the divine-level cultivation technique is not very useful, what Ye Liuyun wants is the methods within it. If an Earth Immortal uses a divine-level immortal technique, it can also produce the power of an Earth Immortal.

The Immortal Essence Pill can only open their immortal meridians, but it cannot provide them with various immortal techniques. Currently, they only have pure immortal power attacks, which are very weak.

Liu Shuran naturally had no objections. In any case, they could make copies of these immortal techniques and distribute them, unlike the one-time use ones like those in the Hall of Merit.

They are also selling rubbings. To put it bluntly, once they have collected these methods, they can sell them an unlimited number of times.

About an hour later, the door to the private room opened, and a middle-aged man in a blue shirt strolled in.

"Second Uncle, you've arrived. I've been waiting for you for a long time," Liu Shuran quickly stood up to greet him.

The visitor was Liu Shuran's uncle, Liu Zaixing.

After Liu Zaixing entered, he first nodded to Liu Shuran, and then turned his gaze to Ye Liuyun.

"You must be Sect Master Ye of the Longevity Sect, right? My apologies. I am Liu Zaixing from the Liu family. My niece invited me here to discuss a deal with Sect Master Ye." Liu Zaixing got straight to the point as soon as he arrived.

However, judging from his tone and attitude, he seemed to doubt what his niece said, or rather, he was skeptical. If he didn't believe her at all, he wouldn't have come all this way in person.

Liu Zaixing is a cultivator who has mastered a top-grade Earth Immortal level cultivation technique.

Ye Liuyun liked this kind of no-nonsense deal.

“That’s right. We’ve already traded a batch of Immortal Essence Pills, worth two million Immortal Crystals. But for this Three Flowers Gathering Qi Pill, Manager Liu says he can’t make the decision himself and insists on asking an elder. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Liu can make the decision?” Ye Liuyun asked.

Liu Zaixing focused his gaze on the porcelain vase on the table, and then glanced at Liu Shuran.

"Does Shuran's Immortal Essence Pill really work?" Liu Zaixing secretly asked.

"Second Uncle, I can confirm that the pill is effective. I had someone test it on me," Liu Shuran replied.

Liu Zaixing nodded, then reached out and beckoned to the porcelain bottle on the table. The bottle immediately fell into his hand. He opened the lid and glanced inside. The pills inside made his eyes light up; clearly, with his keen eye, he could tell that these pills were extraordinary.

However, the pricing of this elixir, which has never been seen before, is a big problem, as is its sale. But the biggest problem is the authenticity of its efficacy.

"Sect Master Ye, do you have a way to prove the authenticity of this pill?" Liu Zaixing asked.

Ultimately, they still need to verify the authenticity of the pill; otherwise, they won't feel comfortable accepting it.

Ye Liuyun was a reasonable person. He thought for a moment and then took out another Three Flowers Gathering Qi Pill.

"I have one more here, one of which can be used for testing. But the problem is, can you find an immortal who is suitable to take this pill?" Ye Liuyun asked.

When Liu Zaixing learned that Ye Liuyun still had a smile, then it wasn't a big problem.

"Haha, I didn't expect that Sect Master Ye would have two of these extraordinary pills. No problem, we, the Liu family, will take care of finding the cultivator who took them. Also, if the pills are genuine, our Yingheng Chamber of Commerce will definitely not let Sect Master Ye lose these pills for nothing," Liu Zaixing said.

Now that things had come to this point, Ye Liuyun didn't dwell on it any further. However, she also understood that it would take time for this pill to be sold.

"Then it's decided. You find the person, and let me know when you find them. Our Changsheng Sect is located at XXXXXX." Ye Liuyun told him the location of their Changsheng Sect.

Liu Zaixing nodded.

“Alright, once we find a suitable user, we will immediately inform Sect Leader Ye.”

"Okay, by the way, Manager Liu, I need a large quantity of medicinal herb seeds. Your guild should have those too, right?" Ye Liuyun asked as he stood up.

Merchant guilds like theirs definitely have these things, and they're the kind that aren't worth much. Even some immortal sects wouldn't choose to buy seeds; if they wanted to grow medicinal herbs, they would buy seedlings, which would be less costly.

“Of course I have some. What, Sect Leader Ye? If you need them, I can give them to you for free. Anyway, they can’t be sold.” Liu Shuran said.

Ye Liuyun smiled. Seeds that were useless to others were a lot of money in her hands.

As for Immortal Soil, the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce also sells it, but it's not nearly enough to meet Ye Liuyun's needs. Nevertheless, Ye Liuyun still bought an acre of Immortal Soil to take back and study.

In the end, Ye Liuyun spent another several hundred thousand immortal crystals. It can only be said that this newly established sect is a vampire. No matter how much money is poured in, it is difficult to make a big splash. But the key is that you can't stop spending money.

If a newly created immortal sect fails to function properly for an extended period, the Heavenly Dao will automatically revoke that sect.

After Ye Liuyun left, Liu Zaixing discussed the matter with Liu Shuran alone.

"Second Uncle, if this pill is real, shouldn't we tell the other families?" Liu Shuran asked.

Liu Zaixing chuckled.

“If it’s true, as long as we sell this pill, our Liu family might be able to stand out from the other families and go it alone, or even become the dominant family in the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce. But these are all things to consider later. Let’s find a suitable cultivator first, the stronger the better,” Liu Zaixing said.

Liu Shuran nodded. At most, they could only find a Celestial Immortal in Yunze Prefecture. However, even a Celestial Immortal was just the starting point in the inner circle and still couldn't demonstrate the value and effect of the pills. They needed to find at least a Golden Immortal.

If they can't find it on the outer perimeter, they have to search the inner perimeter. Once they find it, they need to invite that person to their place to test the medicine. This process will definitely take time.

"By the way, Second Uncle, would you like to try this Immortal Essence Pill?" Liu Shuran took out an Immortal Essence Pill and handed it to Liu Zaixing.

After Liu Zaixing took the Immortal Essence Pill, she glanced at it and swallowed it directly. Immediately after swallowing the pill, she found that her immortal power suddenly increased rapidly.

In the Immortal Realm, when comparing cultivators of the same cultivation level, in addition to their cultivation techniques and magical treasures, one must also consider the strength of their immortal power. If a pill can increase one's immortal power, then it is already very valuable.

"This pill can actually increase my immortal power. If this continues, will it allow my immortal power to break through to the Heavenly Immortal level?" Liu Zaixing was surprised after trying the pill's effects.

The reason why cultivation techniques in the immortal realm are graded is because they are limited by immortal power. Once they cultivate to the extreme, they can no longer absorb immortal power through the cultivation technique.

Once one's immortal power breaks through to the Celestial Immortal level, meaning one's realm reaches the Celestial Immortal level, one can easily defeat an Earth Immortal simply by relying on the strength of one's immortal power.

Ye Liuyun's pills do not follow the rules; they are pills that transcend the rules.

Otherwise, the Immortal Essence Pill would not be able to break the shackles of the rules and allow immortals to directly open their immortal meridians.

"Really? Then, Second Uncle, why don't you swallow all these pills? Perhaps they can help you break through your current limits. If you reach the Celestial Immortal level, our lineage's status in the family will rise accordingly." Liu Shuran stuffed the entire bottle of Immortal Essence Pills into Liu Zaixing's hands.

After thinking for a while, Liu Zaixing shook his head.

"No rush. I haven't mastered my current cultivation technique yet. Let's talk about it after I reach that level. You should try to sell this pill at a high price first, and then see what level of immortal power the cultivator who takes it will reach," Liu Zaixing said.

Liu Shuran had no objection.

Looking at Ye Liuyun, after leaving the Yingheng Chamber of Commerce, Ye Liuyun did not choose to return to the Changsheng Sect, but instead went to Wen Qin's place.

She asked Wenqin to help her investigate something.

"Sister Wenqin, could you help me check on those illegal immigrants from three years ago? Not to mention other areas, just Yunze Prefecture, see if any of them have been caught here?" Ye Liuyun asked.

Given the relationship between Ye Liuyun and Wen Qin, there's no need to hide anything.

Wen Qin will definitely help if she can.

"Those people who smuggled themselves in three years ago? Are you connected to those smugglers?" Wen Qin was taken aback.

Ye Liuyun gave an awkward smile.

"Those people might be my friends from the lower realm. Given our relationship, I have no reason to hide anything. The story goes something like this..." Ye Liuyun briefly recounted the events of that year to Wen Qin.

Wen Qin was utterly shocked when she heard about this.
