Chapter 109 Defective Product Jade Marrow Fungus (Fourth Update)

Qin Ming took the Jade Box and examined it carefully.

He saw that this Jade Marrow Fungus had a broken gap in the middle, as if it had been damaged by Artifacts.

The Medicinal Property had leaked, and almost nothing was left.

Moreover, this Jade Marrow Fungus was less than a hundred years of Medicinal Age.

It was far from the three hundred years of Medicinal Power required on the Foundation Establishment Pill recipe.

For others, this Jade Marrow Fungus would be of little use.

However, for Qin Ming, this was not a problem.

"I wonder, Senior Shen, how much would you sell it for?"

Fellow Daoist Qin asked directly.

"Three thousand Spirit Stones, or Equivalent Items of equal value," Senior Shen said after a moment's consideration.

Fellow Daoist Qin hefted the Jade Box and frowned, saying, "This price is a bit too high, isn't it? After all, the Medicinal Property is almost completely gone."

"Well, if that's the case, then this old man will take another step back, two thousand five hundred Spirit Stones will do," Shen Yuanxiong said, his face twitching slightly, realizing he had asked for too much and immediately changed his tune.

"Transaction."

Qin Ming's expression was calm on the surface, but in reality, he was overjoyed inside.

He had thought it would cost a great deal to obtain a Jade Marrow Fungus, but he hadn't expected it to be much lower than he imagined.

As long as he had this Jade Marrow Fungus, he could revive it and Ripening several portions.

Enough for his Pill Refinement needs.

He calmly took out Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag and handed them to Shen Yuanxiong.

Trade concluded.

"Since Senior Shen still has Important Matter at home, we won't disturb you any further and take our leave," Qin Ming said, his mood shifting from gloomy to bright as his goal was achieved.

Senior Shen politely said, "Why not sit for a while longer? I'll have someone entertain you both properly."

"No, Senior Shen, please go ahead with your business."

"In that case, I apologize for the neglect. Another day, when this old man has finished dealing with matters, I will definitely visit Mirror Snow Pavilion to have a good drink with you both," Shen Yuanxiong then opened the House Door and politely saw them out.

Just as the group passed through the Courtyard Corridor.

A bearded burly man walked towards them in a boisterous manner, with dark skin and radiating Spiritual Power Fluctuation of the Early Foundation Establishment Stage.

As soon as he saw Senior Shen, he began to curse and said, "Hurry, hurry, hurry, old ghost Shen, I want that half-dead Jade Marrow Fungus of yours!"

"I have other uses for it."

After the bearded burly man approached, he noticed the two people beside Senior Shen, and one of them was actually Gu Qingzhao of Mirror Snow Pavilion.

He immediately restrained his attitude, cupped his fist to her, and said, "Pavilion Lord Gu is also here."

Gu Qingzhao nodded slightly in response.

As for Qin Ming, this Qi Condensation junior Cultivator, he was completely ignored.

Senior Shen frowned and glared at the bearded burly man, saying, "Luo Rong, what are you shouting for? You're one step too late. This old man has already sold that Jade Marrow Fungus to Fellow Daoist Qin."

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

Senior Shen looked at Fellow Daoist Qin and introduced, "This is Fellow Daoist Qin, who is the Honorary Guest Elder of Mirror Snow Pavilion."

"He is a genuine Tier 2 Grandmaster Alchemist."

Luo Rong was immediately surprised, and only then did he address Qin Ming again, "So it's Alchemist Qin, heroes truly emerge at a young age!"

However, he still braced himself and asked, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qin would be willing to part with it and sell that Jade Marrow Fungus to me."

"I am willing to pay double the Spirit Stones to buy it."

"This item is of great use to me, please forgive me for not selling it," Qin Ming directly refused.

Luo Rong was stunned. This Qi Condensation junior Cultivator in front of him seemed to be relying on his identity as a Second Order Alchemist and was not at all intimidated by him.

Seeing that Gu Qingzhao was also nearby, he didn't dare to say much. His expression shifted several times before he sighed, "Ah, well, it seems this item is not meant for me."

Having said that, he bid farewell to the group and left dejectedly.

"Uh, haha, Luo Rong is just like this, please don't mind him," Senior Shen said with a smile.

He had just left when.

A commotion arose at the Courtyard Gate. A dignified golden-haired old man, wearing a yellow robe, slowly walked into the Large Courtyard with his hands behind his back.

As soon as Senior Shen saw this person arrive, he excused himself to the two of them and hurried to greet him.

"Alchemist Sun, please go to the Side Hall to rest for a while. Everyone is already here, and it will start soon."

Gu Qingzhao introduced to Qin Ming, "This is Alchemist Sun Jinnian of Vast Sea Immortal City."

Qin Ming nodded.

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

Then he entered the Side Hall.

Now, Alchemist Sun's status in Vast Sea Immortal City is second only to Golden Core True Person.

After Qin Ming and the other left.

Alchemist Sun Jinnian sat on the Chairs, leisurely took a sip of Tea, and asked Senior Shen, "What is Gu Qingzhao doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Senior Shen immediately explained the previous events in detail.

When he heard that the Qi Condensation junior Cultivator beside Gu Qingzhao was not only a Second Order Alchemist but had also refined the Youth Preserving Pill.

An imperceptible strangeness flashed across his face.

Alchemist Sun Jinnian commented lightly, "That Fellow Daoist Qin is probably a Dao of Alchemy Talent of extraordinary Talent, to actually be able to refine even the Youth Preserving Pill."

"In addition to that, he may possess an extremely profound Alchemist Inheritance."

"Otherwise, listening to you say this, this old man would even be tempted to take him as a disciple."

Senior Shen hadn't expected Alchemist Sun's evaluation to be so high.

Because he knew nothing about the Dao of Alchemy, he asked, "Then can he refine the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

"That's natural. The Pill Refinement Difficulty of the Youth Preserving Pill is even slightly higher than the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"The Path of Pill Refinement is also a principle that applies to all methods."

"Since he can refine the Youth Preserving Pill, he will definitely be able to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill," Sun Jinnian slowly explained.

Senior Shen was stunned in place, "Ah?!"

He instantly felt that he had missed something.

"But he took that Defective Product Jade Marrow Fungus, I guess he won't be able to refine it, right?"

Alchemist Sun Jinnian seemed amused by his words, "Humph, there are countless Secret Alchemy Method, perhaps he has a method to replenish the Medicinal Property?"

At this moment, Senior Shen also remembered Luo Rong's words.

"Why do I feel like I sold that Jade Marrow Fungus at a loss?"

Alchemist Sun Jinnian said, "Alright, hurry up and prepare. I'll wait here. Recently, this old man has also made some progress in the Dao of Alchemy. This time, I guarantee to successfully refine a batch for you."

These words were like a reassurance pill for Senior Shen.

His face lit up with joy, and he immediately went out to busy himself.

…

On the other side, Qin Ming obtained a crucial Main Material, and a heavy weight was lifted from his heart.

Now, he still lacked the next two rare Auxiliary Ingredient, but they were not as difficult to find as the Jade Marrow Fungus.

As long as he paid attention to collecting them, he believed he could gather them soon.

Qin Ming stayed in Vast Sea Immortal City for another day, inquiring about the whereabouts of these two Auxiliary Ingredient.

Unfortunately, the results were minimal.

On this day.

He was in a Spirit Herb Shop looking for clues about the Auxiliary Ingredient.

But a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, what a coincidence!"

Fellow Daoist Qin turned around at the sound and saw a bearded Cultivator smiling and greeting him.

It was indeed that Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Luo Rong.
