"I don't know her name, I just know she is a fairy!" Manager Lu said respectfully.
"A female fairy? A female? Did she fight? What was the final result?" Chen Changsheng frowned.
He couldn't remember having any close female fairies...
If there really is one, it seems that it is only Xiao Moxi.
But little Moxi...
"They fought, right under the Demon Mountain. It seems that both of them were injured... I am not very clear about the details due to my low position." Manager Lu said.
"Both sides suffer losses... Fairy..."
"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?" Chen Changsheng asked.
Chen Changsheng racked his brains but couldn't figure out who the female fairy was. However, he was sure that after entering the world of immortal cultivation, except for Xiao Moxi, he really wasn't familiar with other female fairies...
"Yes, the monsters in the Monster Mountain are rioting, which is suspected to be a precursor to the outbreak of the beast tide in the Ten Thousand Monster Forest. The ancestor has sent people to investigate carefully. If nothing unexpected happens, there should be news in the next few days!" said Manager Lu.
"What the hell? A beast tide? Is it true?" Chen Changsheng asked in surprise.
Why am I so unlucky that I hide in Sanyang City and still encounter a tide of beasts?
"Of course it's true, Senior Chen. There hasn't been a beast tide in Demon Mountain for sixty years. According to the patterns of previous years, it's about time!" Manager Lu said.
Before Sanyang City was built, the beast tide in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest would erupt almost every thirty or forty years.
After the establishment of Sanyang City, the outbreak of the beast tide was delayed to a certain extent, and now it occurs about once every fifty to sixty years.
The last beast tide was sixty years ago. Judging from the time, this beast tide should have broken out too.
"The beast tide is a big deal... How will the ancestors respond?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"Since the establishment of Sanyang City, we have faced three beast tides. We have some experience in dealing with beast tides. In addition, the five major sects and the major forces under their command will also send a certain number of cultivators to help."
"As long as you don't go into the city to kill monsters, you don't have to worry too much. The defense of Sanyang City is still very strong. With the Sanyang Patriarch here, the first and second level monsters can't be a threat!" Manager Lu said.
"What if there is a third-level monster?" Chen Changsheng rolled his eyes.
"A great monster of the third order? According to records, great monsters of the third order rarely appear in beast tides... At least in the first three beast tides since the establishment of Sanyang City, no great monsters of the third order appeared. It shouldn't appear this time either..." Manager Lu said uncertainly.
"That's better..." Chen Changsheng said with a wry smile.
For some reason, he always felt that things might not be that simple.
In the previous three beast tides, no third-level monsters appeared. Doesn’t that increase the chances of a third-level monster appearing this time?
Beast tide!
run!
Must run!
The appearance of the beast tide gave Chen Changsheng another reason to escape...
"Senior Chen, apart from these two things, there shouldn't be anything else important. Is there anything else I can do for you?" asked Manager Lu.
"No more, go back, this is a reward for you!"
As Chen Changsheng spoke, he threw a bottle of elixir over...
After Manager Lu left, Chen Changsheng looked up in the direction of Gu Yang's cave residence, a mocking smile on his face...
Gu Yang, who was trying to heal his wounds in the cave, suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart. He trembled all over, and a bad premonition emerged, but he didn't know what was going to happen...
"On a whim?"
"What's going on? Is it related to the beast tide?"
"Under the beast tide, all cultivators must go to join the battle, but I am, after all, the master's direct disciple, and I am seriously injured. They probably won't use me to fight..."
"What could it be?"
Gu Yang pondered over it, but he couldn't understand why something bad could happen to him when he was in Sanyang City and had his master's protection...
Could it be that those senior brothers are up to something again?
Medicine King Hall!
Chen Changsheng disguised himself as a middle-aged man, holding Gu Yang's token, and stepped into the Medicine King Hall step by step.
"I'm here to get the elixir that Master Gu Yang ordered here!"
"Fellow Daoist, you are..." Shopkeeper Chen asked in surprise.
He originally thought that either Gu Yang himself or Chen Changsheng would come, but he didn't expect a stranger to come...
"You don't need to know who I am!" Chen Changsheng said, his aura locking onto Shopkeeper Chen...
"Senior... please calm down, calm down... I have already prepared all the spiritual medicines that Master Gu Yang needs, and I am waiting for you..." Suddenly, Shopkeeper Chen gave in...
"Well, where is the elixir? I want to check its quality!" Chen Changsheng said.
"You are the second-level alchemist invited by Master Gu Yang, right? Don't worry about the elixirs. The quality is guaranteed to be top-notch. You can check them at will!" Shopkeeper Chen took out a storage bag and handed it to Chen Changsheng in a flattering manner.
Chen Changsheng casually explored it and nodded, saying, "The stuff is quite good. It lives up to the reputation of your Medicine King Palace. I'll take the elixir!"
"Wait..." Shopkeeper Chen hurriedly stopped Chen Changsheng...
"Hmm?" Chen Changsheng frowned.
"Senior, have you forgotten something?" Shopkeeper Chen said with a wry smile.
"Forgot what?"
"Spirit stones, spirit stones! You haven't given me the spirit stones yet!" said Shopkeeper Chen.
"Go to Gu Yang Zhenren's cave tomorrow to get the spiritual stones. I'm only here to get the spiritual medicine today!" Chen Changsheng said lightly.
“Ah? This…this…”
On credit?
Give it tomorrow?
Is there such a saying?
"Senior, this... this is against the rules..." Shopkeeper Chen frowned.
"What kind of rules do you want? Can Master Gu Yang really afford you such a small amount of spirit stones?"
"Besides, since you know I'm a second-level alchemist, you should know what these spiritual medicines will become in my hands. Can't I afford to give you spiritual stones?"
"According to the rules of Sanyang City, you will definitely get some spirit stones!" Chen Changsheng said lightly.
"Then...then could you please, senior, show me your skills on the spot?" Shopkeeper Chen asked cautiously.
"What do you mean by showing off your skills?" Chen Changsheng asked.
"That is... to refine a furnace of second-level pills on the spot..." said Manager Chen.
"It seems that you don't trust my identity!" Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
"It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that the goods are worth so many spirit stones and we can't afford to lose them... After all, this is the first time I meet you, Senior... If Senior Chen Changsheng came here, I wouldn't do this..." Shopkeeper Chen said bitterly.
After all, Chen Changsheng is a Foundation Establishment Immortal, and is also listed in the Sanyang City list. Everything he does is endorsed by Sanyang City, so he is naturally trustworthy.
But the person in front of me...
Even though he was also at the foundation-building stage, he had never seen him before and didn't recognize him at all...
If something goes wrong, he won't even have a place to cry...
If he could confirm this person's identity as a second-level alchemist, he would feel more at ease.
After all, Chen Changsheng had said in person that Master Gu Yang had hired a second-level alchemist from somewhere...
Second-level alchemists are not common people. It’s good enough if one suddenly appears. How can another one appear?
How could it be possible...%
"Refine a furnace of elixirs on the spot?"
"Haha, well, I'll show you my skills so you don't doubt my identity!"
"There is no earth fire chamber here. If I use the true fire for foundation building, it will consume some vitality. If I use refined carbon, the effect will be slightly worse... Well, it's almost there, second-level refined carbon will be fine..." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
"Then I'll trouble you, Senior. Please come in!" Shopkeeper Chen made a gesture of invitation...
Inside the private room, Chen Changsheng took out his most commonly used first-grade high-quality alchemy furnace and lit the refined charcoal.
Although the Sky Fire Cauldron is better, many people know that the cauldron has fallen into Chen Changsheng's hands. If he takes it out at this time, it is easy to expose his identity.
"Why, do you want to watch me make the elixir?" Chen Changsheng looked up at the shopkeeper Chen.
"I dare not, I dare not... I will go to guard outside the private room, please do as you please, senior!" Shopkeeper Chen said hurriedly.
Whether it was alchemy, weapon forging, or even talisman making, there were taboos and they were rarely shown directly in front of others unless there was a special need...
Half an hour later, a fresh medicinal fragrance wafted from the private room. Shopkeeper Chen immediately realized that the person inside must have succeeded in refining the medicine...
"Come in!" Chen Changsheng's voice came from the private room.
"Yes, senior!" Shopkeeper Chen pushed the door open and walked in respectfully.
A second-level alchemist is also a foundation-building cultivator, and his status is much higher than that of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator.
"This is the rhubarb pill I just refined. Take a look at its quality?" Chen Changsheng smiled. Five round, flawless rhubarb pills spun around his fingertips, emitting a faint medicinal fragrance...
"Senior's alchemy skills are truly superb. Even using refined carbon, he was able to refine such a perfect rhubarb pill. If he used the underground fire chamber, wouldn't it be even more amazing?" Shopkeeper Chen complimented.
It has to be said that Chen Changsheng is quite experienced in refining rhubarb pills.
There was no other way. He had been in seclusion in the underground fire room for several whole months, refining the rhubarb pill. He only refined this kind of pill every day. Not to mention Chen Changsheng's overall alchemy level, but just this kind of pill, it must be at the master level!
"Do you believe my current identity?" Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
"Believe it, of course I believe it!" Shopkeeper Chen said hurriedly.
For a second-level alchemist, making money is actually a very simple matter. All he has to do is start refining the elixir!
First-level elixirs are in short supply, let alone second-level elixirs.
Many second-level elixirs can only be purchased at auction houses, or by attending gatherings of foundation-building cultivators and bartering with others. Ordinary shops selling elixirs generally only have first-level elixirs.
Tens of thousands of spirit stones might be the entire fortune of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, but for a second-level alchemist, earning this much spirit stones isn't that difficult...
"I'm writing you a note with Gu Yang's brand printed on it to stop you from being suspicious!" Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
"In that case, that would be great!" Shopkeeper Chen said respectfully.
Chen Changsheng wrote a note, printed Gu Yang's identity token on it, and walked out of the Medicine King Hall step by step.
"Well, this trip went pretty smoothly... I was able to get spiritual medicine worth nearly 50,000 spirit stones. I even have the materials for spiritual pills for the middle and late stages of foundation building..."
"Let's go to the Equipment Refining Pavilion now. I hope everything goes well..."
Equipment Refining Pavilion!
"Shopkeeper Wan, is the spiritual weapon customized by Master Gu Yang ready?"
After Chen Changsheng entered, he went straight to the point.
"Senior is..."
Manager Wan looked at this person in confusion. Why was he a strange cultivator?
He thought it would be Chen Changsheng...
"Don't worry about who I am. Do you recognize this brand?" Chen Changsheng said as he threw Gu Yang's identity token over.
"Is this... Master Gu Yang's identity token?" Shopkeeper Wan asked in surprise.
"Well, I'm here to pick up those two custom-made spiritual weapons on behalf of Master Gu Yang. Could they be not finished yet?" Chen Changsheng said.
"It's done, of course it's done, just waiting for Senior Gu Yang to come and pick it up!"
Shopkeeper Wan said hurriedly, and took out the two top-grade spiritual weapons he had prepared in advance...
A piece of armor and a flying sword!
On the armor, five colors of gold, yellow, blue, green and red complement each other, making it look like a perfect work of art.
As for the flying sword, it was much more monotonous, but there was a hint of cold light in the blade, and it was obviously an excellent spiritual weapon!
"According to Master Gu Yang's requirements, this armor is made of materials with the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. By inputting mana, you can activate its built-in five-element shield..."
"And this flying sword is made entirely of meteorite iron and is extremely sharp..." Manager Wan introduced.
"Well, the things are pretty good. I'll take them away!" Chen Changsheng said, and was about to take the two top-grade spiritual weapons.
"Wait a minute... Senior, you seem to have forgotten to give the spirit stones..." Shopkeeper Wan said hurriedly.
"This token is left with you. Take it to Master Gu Yang's cave tomorrow, and I'll naturally give you the spirit stones!"
"You don't have to worry that Master Gu Yang will default on his debt. With his token and the rules of Sanyang City, you will definitely get some spirit stones!" Chen Changsheng said.
Patriarch Sanyang attaches great importance to the rules of Sanyang City, and even his direct disciples are not allowed to trample upon them.
"This..." Shopkeeper Wan hesitated for a moment after hearing this...
"What's this? I've already told you that your spirit stones are indispensable. With the token here, what are you afraid of? Otherwise, I can write you a note stating how much spirit stones I owe you. Is that okay?" Chen Changsheng said impatiently.
"Well, okay... Although it's against the rules, Master Gu Yang is the disciple of Patriarch Sanyang, so we still have some trust in him!" Shopkeeper Wan nodded.
In fact, he was not really afraid that Gu Yang would default on his debt.
After all, not everyone can step into their weapon refining pavilion...
Backed by the Fiery Flame Sect, one of the five major sects, it's also a vegetarian...
Since Master Gu Yang dared to swallow his two top-grade spiritual weapons, it wouldn't be long before someone from the Fiery Flame Sect would come over and talk to him...
"That's more like it!"
Chen Changsheng smiled, collected the two top-grade spiritual weapons, and walked out of the weapon refining pavilion. Without looking back, he headed towards the outside of Sanyang City...
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, whether it is a beast tide or Gu Yang's fellow apprentices...
I won’t serve you anymore!
