Chapter 139: Refining the Mysterious Elixir, Auction Gala

  【Rejuvenation Pill】Able to rapidly recover the user's spiritual energy during battle, it is a must-have medicine for every cultivator.

  But the "Reverted Profundity Pill" cannot be taken indefinitely, in fact, each Reverted Profundity Pill contains a certain amount of impurities. After taking it, the medicinal properties and impurities will accumulate in the body until the practitioner spits out the impurities as part of the turbid Qi during breathing exercises.

  Within a certain period of time, continuous use of Fuxuandan will cause the accumulation of medicinal impurities, leading to the complete ineffectiveness of subsequent doses.

  So, only those extremely high-purity [Du Xuan Dan] will be sought after by the vast number of Xuan practitioners.

  Currently in Donglai City, the purest "Fuxuandan" on the market has a purity of only 90%. Ordinary cultivators will lose their effects after taking three to five Fuxuandan.

  And what effect would a 99% pure Rejuvenation Pill have? This means that there is only one percent impurity! It means that the cultivator can continuously take more than ten Rejuvenation Pills! What kind of advantage would this occupy in a battle of the same rank?

  The young girl's eyes showed a hint of hesitation, she took over a jade bottle, opened the stopper, and with her slender jade palm, fanned a wisp of cinnabar incense into her nostrils.

  Seeing her cautious appearance, Xu Yang nodded in satisfaction. This is the right attitude for doing business, those stores that cheat customers, Xu Yang would not go and deal with them.

  "How is it, Ah Chou?" the middle-aged man coughed and asked, he was also frightened by "99% purity".

  "Dad, I can't tell..." Ah Chou handed over the jade bottle and said in a low voice, "However, this young master seems to be... right."

  The middle-aged man took a sniff of the fragrance, his face revealing an extremely surprised expression, mixed with a hint of excitement: "Ninety-nine percent! Truly ninety-nine percent purity! Such a [Reverted Mysterious Elixir], can be called a divine elixir! Ah-Chou, quickly return the [Reverted Mysterious Elixir] to this young master."

  "Father, why? Since these elixirs are rare and precious, let's buy them up and attract more customers! Why return them to this young master?"

  The middle-aged man had a hint of desolation: "These elixirs are indeed top-notch, our store is small, how can we give out a price that would satisfy the young master to buy?" He trembled and walked in front of Xu Yang, saluting him: "Young Master, across two walls, there is a large medicine house called Penglai Pavilion, its strength is a hundred times stronger than our small store. If Young Master sells the elixirs to them, I believe the price will be higher..."

  Xu Yang asked in a low voice: "If I sell this medicine to them, won't your days be even more difficult? Even less able to compete with Penglai Pavilion."

  Lin Lianhang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I really don't want you to lose out, young master."

  Xu Yang smiled slightly: "Are you worried that the price you offered is too low and can't move me?"

  Lin Lianhang nodded: "Young master is right."

  Xu Yang's mouth twitched: "Alright, I've made up my mind about this deal today. However, the way to sell the medicine will be decided by me, how about that?"

  "I'd like to hear more about it." said Lin Lianhang, a middle-aged man in poor health.

  "I'll leave these three bottles of Revival Elixir here, and your store can sell them according to the method I told you. The money earned will be split with me taking 80% and your store taking 20%, how about it?"

  "Can a small shop get 2%?! Lin Lianhang waved his hand repeatedly, "No way, no way. Since the small shop doesn't invest any capital, it's naturally unreasonable to ask for a share..."

  "I've said it before, I'll provide the Dan medicine, you provide the people and the storefront, we'll split it fairly, what's not right about that?" Xǔ Yáng said.

  "Yes, father, let's just do as this young master says. Our shop is idle anyway..." said the girl Ah-Chou.

  Lin Lianhang was persuaded and nodded in agreement.

  Soon, a red banner was hung at the entrance of Hui Chun Tang's street, with eight large characters "Top-grade spiritual elixir, high price gets it" and a line of small words behind: "If there is any fake, please smash the sign".

  The young girl Ai Chu tied a red silk on her forehead, covering up the black birthmark. She held two drumsticks in her hands and beat them against a big drum, making it boom loudly.

  "Come and take a look! Hui Chun Tang, a century-old brand, ancestral spiritual elixir, auctioned off today!"

  "Look without spending money, don't spend money!"

  Donglai City is a gathering place for Xuanzhe, and soon a group of people surrounded him to watch the excitement. More than half of them were above Xuan Shi, and there were several Xuan Shifu!

  "What kind of medicine is this, it's so effective?"

  "Beware of your signboard if you're fake!"

  "Hey, isn't this Lin family's Xiao A-Chou? Covering up that scar, yet still so handsome."

  The young girl, Ah Chou, smiled and took out an antique small jade bottle: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm from the Spring Hall with a hundred years of heritage, my ancestors were sixth-grade medicine masters! Now that our family has declined, we have no choice but to auction off our ancestral spiritual elixir. We hope those who are wealthy will support us financially, and those who are not will at least give us moral support!"

  "Enough of this talk, what kind of pill is it?" someone shouted.

  "Ah Q held up the jade bottle: 'Revert to Mysterious Elixir!'"

  At this moment, a group of people were slightly stunned and looked at each other in dismay.

  Suddenly, a burst of laughter erupted like a tidal wave: "Fu Xuan Dan, a common product on the market, yet advertised as if it were a treasure!"

  "It's just, no fun!"

  Some people were about to leave when a young voice from below the stage rang out: "I don't know what kind of purity this Re Xuan Dan has, is it 90% or not?"

  The people who were about to leave stopped in their tracks, some of them laughing and saying: "This little brother, are you kidding me? A 9th-grade purity [Reverted Mysterious Pill], at the very least, would require a 5th or 6th grade alchemy master to refine it."

  That young man who was speaking wore a golden crown on his head, a blue shirt on his body, and an ancient sword hanging from his waist. It was Xu Yang.

  "Isn't it said that our ancestors were sixth-rank alchemists? " Xǔ Yáng spoke fluently, "I think we can give it a try."

  Ah-Chou smiled on stage: "This brother asked well, the 【Re Xuan Dan】 passed down from my ancestors has a purity of 99.9%!"

  A stone stirs up a thousand waves, and most of the people under the stage are Taoists. Naturally, they understand that the 99% pure [Fu Xuan Dan] is priceless!

  "How can we know if what you say is true?" someone in the crowd shouted.

  "Anyone can talk big!"

  "Ah-Chou said with a straight face: 'Whether it's true or not, why don't we invite a few seniors who can distinguish the quality of Dan medicine to identify it? If it's fake, I'll let the hundred-year-old signboard of Chun Tang be trampled by everyone!'"

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay.

  "I'll give it a try!" A red-faced old man walked onto the stage, "I am a fourth-grade Dan Master. Although I may not be considered a great master in Donglai City, but the medicinal properties of the [Fu Xuan Dan], I can still tell one or two things about it!"

  "Yang Lao, this is Yang Lao! The imperial pill master of Donglai Palace!" someone exclaimed excitedly.

  "I'd also like to try," a thin old man couldn't hold back his curiosity, stepped onto the high platform, "90% chance of success with the Reverted Mystical Elixir, I've truly heard of it for the first time."

  "Old fellow, what qualifications do you have to appraise elixirs with Old Yang?" someone spoke out of turn.

  The withered old man glared, and behind him a mountain flood burst forth, an illusion of rolling mud and stones flashed and disappeared. The shouting person let out a loud cry, spitting out fresh blood, and fell backwards, head thrown back to the sky!

  Everyone was silent as a cicada in winter. This is an expert! The expert has come to identify the medicinal herbs, and he is absolutely qualified.
