The Battle Through Heaven
Thousands of Medicinal Homes
Xiao Yan walked out of the somewhat dark tunnel. A dazzling sunlight shone from the sky. The frenzied voice was a demonic tune as it poured into his ears, causing Xiao Yan to frown.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes as he slowly raised his head. He looked at the huge inner part of the city and the dense human traffic that was moving along the vast road in front of him. He could not help but sigh prana. The size of this Black Emperor City was no smaller than the capital of the Jia Ma Empire. From a certain point of view, even the capital of the Jia Ma Empire could not compare to him. After all, the things that this place possessed were things that the capital did not do.
” Where should we go next? ” The Little Fairy Doctor's eyes shifted around as she asked gently.
Xiao Yan mused a little before he immediately said, ’We will first go to the larger drugstore in the city and take a look around. The inside of ‘Black-Corner Region’ has quite a number of rare medicinal ingredients that the outside world lacks. If we're lucky enough, we might be able to get some of the medicinal ingredients we need. Moreover, we have to inquire about the information related to the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva. That thing ... I don't even have enough knowledge about it. Therefore, we can just go and ask. ’
” Yes. ” Little Fairy Doctor slightly nodded and did not voice any objections.
” That's right, you can attack next time we meet such a person. This kind of situation is very common in ‘Black-Corner Region’. No one will blame you .. ” Xiao Yan slowly walked towards the broad road as described randomly.
The Little Fairy Doctor was slightly surprised. A moving smile immediately appeared on the Little Fairy Doctor's face. He nodded, pulled Zi Yan's hand and immediately followed her.
The three of them slowly walked through the interior of this enormous Black Emperor City. After this personal appearance, they finally understood clearly how many people had come to Black Emperor City for this large-scale auction …
Curses and screams were repeatedly transmitted to their ears from the street. Many large shops stood orderly on both sides of the street. Without exception, these shops were all filled with people coming and going. This grand auction had brought Black Emperor City a large amount of traffic and human profits.
The group of three people Xiao Yan slowly walked down the street. Their gazes repeatedly swept over the shops on both sides of the street. They had seen quite a number of drugstores along the way and had entered them to search and ask. However, the size of this drugstore was not very large. Therefore, they did not find the medicinal ingredients that Xiao Yan needed.
Although Xiao Yan did not gain anything, he did not become anxious. The medicinal ingredients he needed were all extremely rare. Although this ‘Black-Corner Region’ had a rich collection, it was naturally impossible for him to gather everything in a short period of time.
The group of Xiao Yan passed through two streets along the way before their footsteps finally stopped in front of an enormous medicinal shop like a penthouse.
The drugstore was called ‘Home Medicine Thousand’. Its size was enormous and it could be considered the largest shop that Xiao Yan's group had ever seen since they entered the city. Moreover, this shop seemed to have an excellent reputation within Black Emperor City. Therefore, the human traffic coming to and from the huge entrance seemed to be squeezed together. The noise curse was repeatedly transmitted.
Xiao Yan standing outside ‘Thousand Medicinal House’. He hesitated for a moment before leading the Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan to squeeze into the human flow. The powerful Dou Qi within his body was emitting a force that seemed to be quietly getting rid of those who were blocking his path gently as if he was dividing the stream. After that, the three of them bragged themselves to this ‘Seribu Drug Store’.
The noisy curse was greatly reduced after they entered ‘Thousand Medicinal House’. A rich medicinal fragrance mixed from countless medicinal ingredients pounced over. The richness of the medicinal fragrance almost caused Xiao Yan to sneeze violently.
Xiao Yan rubbed his nose as he let his gaze wander. He could see that/it was an extremely spacious hall filled with many transparent counters. Various medicinal ingredients were neatly placed inside the counters. Moreover, quite a number of people were currently gathered around this counter.
The large hall was divided into the medicinal ingredients section and the medicinal pill section. If one were to compare them, the medicinal pill section would definitely have more people. After all, the people from ‘Black-Corner,’ area who spent all day licking the blood from their knives, are, would rather have a medicinal pill that could save their lives or unleash great power in a dangerous situation. This desire was undoubtedly much more valuable than ingesting only medicinal ingredients.
However, an alchemist like Xiao Yan placed even greater value on medicinal ingredients. After all, as long as the medicinal ingredients were in his hands, he would naturally be able to refine the medicinal ingredients …
Xiao Yan pulled Zi Yan along as he sucked in a breath through his small nose. The three of them slowly walked towards the crystal table. His gaze immediately swept over her.
” Green Wind Grass ... Fruit Wind Fire Scale .. ’’
Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the medicinal ingredients displayed on the table and identified them immediately. He immediately shook his head. The things here might not be ordinary things but were far from the level of medicinal ingredients he needed.
” There is indeed a reason why ‘Black-Corner’ area is able to attract quite a number of people from outside. If it was outside, just this medicinal ingredient alone would definitely be treated as a great treasure from the store. How can they be displayed randomly and sold in the same place .. ’’The Little Fairy Doctor gently sighed. Being a poison master, he was naturally quite familiar with these medicinal ingredients.
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. He will speak when laughter is transmitted from the other side of the counter, ” Guests, may I know what medicinal ingredients you need? Our Thousand Medicines Home is a large drug store that ranks top in ‘Black-Corner’ Region. I think this place should have the things you want to buy. ’
The old man received the white paper with both hands. Initially, his gaze randomly swept over her but she immediately became startled. His eyes once again weighed Xiao Yan. A glint appeared in his eyes as he asked, ” Is the master an alchemist? ”
”Why? Don't tell me that/that an alchemist can't come and buy medicinal ingredients in this drugstore? ” Xiao Yan replied in a faint voice.
’Ke Ke, mister, please don't take it personally. The old me was a tier 2 alchemist. It's just that I feel familiar with the way these medicinal ingredients are regulated. ’’The old man laughed.
Xiao Yan only suddenly understood after hearing this. The medicinal effects and attributes of the medicinal ingredients were all different. Outsiders will have trouble distinguishing them. However, with Xiao Yan's current alchemist skill, he naturally placed medicinal ingredients with similar medicinal effects together like second nature when he wrote this list of ingredients. It was unexpected that/that this old man had actually found her …
’’I can be considered as ... do you have this medicinal ingredient?’ ’
’Ke Ke, there are a total of eight medicinal ingredients in this case. ‘Our Thousand’ Drug House does have the first five. However, they are a little expensive. It is very likely that/it they will need a total of two million gold coins or so. however, the last three, the Thousand Spiritual Ginseng, Demon Spiritual Valley Grass, and Jade Bone Fruit … too hard to find. ” The old man laughed.
Xiao Yan slightly sighed in relief when he heard it, but he was also a little disappointed. The first five medicinal ingredients might be rare, but they were really not that difficult to find. The hardest is the last three. It is not expected that/that this place does not have it either.
’In that case, help me bring the first five medicinal ingredients. I'll think of another method to look for the last three. ’’Xiao Yan shook his head. He counted the gold coins stored inside the crystal card in his Storage Ring. After using most of the money that had been obtained from the medicinal pill auction that ‘Xiao Gate’ held back then, Xiao Yan had around four million gold coins. Right now, it was enough to buy medicinal ingredients. ” Ke ke, mister, do you really need these three medicinal ingredients? ” The old man nodded with a smile as he ordered a female servant to obtain medicinal ingredients. After which, he turned to Xiao Yan and asked a question.
” You have a solution? ” Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. His voice was a bit surprised.
’Ke Ke, I just said that/that these three medicinal ingredients are very rare, but I am not saying that/that our Thousand Medicinal House does not have them. However, the rare medicinal ingredients of such a tier would usually not be taken out for sale... ’’The old man laughed.
” Since you've already opened your mouth, I don't think it's just to tell me this, no? ” Xiao Yan gently rubbed his Storage Ring as he replied in a calm voice.
’’ Mister is really a straightforward person. I'll tell you this in person. If you want to obtain these three medicinal ingredients, you should go to the second story of this Thousand Medicinal House. The value of the medicinal ingredients there was more expensive than the one on the first floor. However, you cannot use gold coins to purchase medicinal ingredients in that place. Instead, you should refine a medicinal pill that has a value similar to this medicinal ingredient as needed. Only then can you pick up the ingredients ... ” The old man gently laughed, ” In other words, only an alchemist has the qualifications to enter. ’
” Oh? ” Xiao Yan felt somewhat surprised after hearing such a strange rule. However, he immediately understood. When the value of an item reaches a certain level, it is difficult to use gold coins to measure its value. At such a time, one would have to expend something of similar value to exchange for it.
”What did you say? May I know if mister is interested in heading to the second story to see it? The scarcity of medicinal ingredients on the second floor was far from what could be compared here. I think the three medicinal ingredients you need can be found above. ’’The old man laughed.
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment before nodding. The last three medicinal ingredients were extremely rare. If he went and looked for them, he would not know when he would be able to find them. It would be better if he could get it here. Moreover, from what this old man had said, the second floor even had more rare items. He might even be able to obtain some information related to the Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva from there …
’’In this case, please lead the way.’
’Ke Ke, this old man will give mister a reminder here. Given the value of the medicinal ingredients you need, you will most likely be required to use a tier 4 or even tier 5 medicinal pill to exchange for it. If you are unable to refine a medicinal pill of this tier, then ... ’The smile on the old man's face initially became clearer when he saw Xiao Yan nod in agreement. However, he hesitated for a moment before voicing his reminder.
Xiao Yan's eyelids did not even move when he heard this. He vaguely said, ’’ Lead the way. ’’
An unusual glint flashed across the old man's eyes when he saw Xiao Yan's manner. A respectful expression immediately surged onto his face before he led the way in front while humbly bending his body.
”Come go. Let's take a look at the second story to see if there's anything you need .. ’
Xiao Yan turned his head and smiled to the Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan. After which, he lifted his leg and followed the old man. Xiao Yan really had a lot of curiosity towards the unusual and rare medicinal ingredients that the old man had mentioned. After all, medicinal ingredients had a greater appeal to alchemists than those medicinal pills.
