Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet

Speaking of this, the white-haired old man was also a little surprised.

He had seen many high-quality elixirs, but those were all counted individually. What he had in his hand now was a whole bottle of Qi-Boosting Pills, and the quality was quite good, which was relatively rare.

Especially now, there were more than thirty bottles of pills in total. If all the pills were of this quality, it would be a bit outrageous…

"This bottle contains about fifty pills. Our shop can offer 1000 spirit stones. I wonder if you can accept it."

The white-haired old man gave the price. Seeing Gu Yuan nod, he picked up another bottle of pills, opened the bottle stopper, and continued to check.

"Hmm, this is a Yuan-Nourishing Pill… This kind of pill has the effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the Yuan. The quality of this bottle of Yuan-Nourishing Pill is also very good."

"And this Detoxification Pill…"

"Hmm? There's even a Spirit-Nurturing Pill! This…"

Next, the more the white-haired old man looked, the more shocked he became!

He was an executive of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. Relying on his special cultivation skills, sharp eyesight, and rich experience, he was hired by the Hundred Treasures Pavilion with a lot of money.

Over the years, he had seen many good things.

However, the pills that Gu Yuan took out, bottle after bottle, included Qi-Boosting Pills, Jade Essence Pills, Yuan-Nourishing Pills, Spirit-Nurturing Pills, and so on.

The quality of these pills was basically very good. They seemed to be made by a master, and even by the same person, which made him think more.

The white-haired old man calculated the price and said:

"To be honest, the quality of your elixirs is very good. The total price of all the elixirs is about 14,980 spirit stones."

"However, recently, due to the upcoming opening of the Crimson Dragon Immortal Palace, the level of Qi-Boosting Pills and Detoxification Pills has increased by 20% to 30%."

"So, I have to add another 2,500 spirit stones to you. I'll take the liberty of rounding up the change and give you a total of 17,500 spirit stones. How about that?"

While saying this, he stared at Gu Yuan, as if afraid that he would have any objections.

"Thank you, friend. Then I will accept it respectfully."

Gu Yuan nodded. He knew very well that although he might get a higher price if he sold them bottle by bottle, it would definitely take a long time!

His time was so precious now, how could he waste time for some spirit stones?

Besides, this price was still fair, and Gu Yuan had no objections to it.

However, when Gu Yuan bought the materials for alchemy before, he only spent more than a thousand spirit stones in total. Although this was because of the 40% discount due to various reasons, after deducting the cost, Gu Yuan could still make a net profit of 13,000 spirit stones, which was simply a huge profit!

If he did that a few more times, maybe he could gather all the resources he needed to reach the Golden Core Realm of Entering Sainthood.

It can only be said that in the cultivation world, alchemists are often considered wealthy households and tycoons for a reason.

There's no way around it, the alchemy business is too profitable!

Spiritual herbs worth a few hundred spirit stones can be refined into a furnace of elixirs, which can be sold for one or two thousand spirit stones, or even more.

Of course, that being said, Gu Yuan actually knew his limits.

If he weren't an inner disciple of Medicine King Mountain and favored by Situ Yan, and only given the cost price for the alchemy materials he bought, these spirit stones would definitely shrink a lot.

Moreover, Gu Yuan himself was able to refine so many high-quality pills, thanks to the "Thousand Transformations" talent brought by Caiyun.

In fact, there were not many people in the entire Medicine King Mountain who had his level of alchemy.

So, don't think that alchemists can make money, but the threshold is too high!

To reach Gu Yuan's level, everyone has to refine pills for decades or even hundreds of years, wasting a huge amount of spiritual herbs, before they can accumulate experience and finally become an alchemist.

To be honest, to become an alchemist, one not only needs to have a very high talent for comprehension, but also needs to have a sufficient supply of resources.

However, another piece of news revealed in the other party's words caught Gu Yuan's attention.

The opening of the Crimson Dragon Immortal Palace actually affected the price of pills in the Qiongming Immortal Workshop. This is really interesting!

But this is enough to show that there must be a lot of people entering the Crimson Dragon Immortal Palace.

"Haha, please wait a moment, friend."

The white-haired old man handed his identity jade token to the shop assistant and was about to arrange for the shop assistant to get the spirit stones, but Gu Yuan stopped him: "No hurry. I just heard that your shop has recently acquired a Mirage Dragon Pearl. I am quite interested in this thing. Why don't you send someone to bring it over and take a look first."

Hearing this, the white-haired old man nodded and sent the shop assistant away.

After the shop assistant closed the door, the white-haired old man said seemingly casually:

"These elixirs are basically of good quality. It can be seen at a glance that they are made by a master. If you have any goods in your hand in the future, you must come to our store. I will take the lead and give you half a percent higher than the market price."

Gu Yuan naturally saw that this old man was testing him, ostensibly to attract customers to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, but in reality, he was trying to get information from him.

If he really agreed in one breath, wouldn't it mean that these pills were not obtained by him by chance, but that there was a highly skilled alchemist behind him?

But Gu Yuan really didn't care and nodded casually: "Okay."

Seeing Gu Yuan agree readily, the white-haired old man was first happy, and then a little surprised and uncertain.

Could it be that these high-quality pills were really refined by this person or the person behind him?

On the surface, he smiled and chatted with Gu Yuan, starting a conversation.

It's just that his attitude towards Gu Yuan was obviously a bit more polite.

The white-haired old man didn't continue to inquire and test, otherwise it would be bad to offend Gu Yuan and backfire.

However, in the entire Qinzhou, there are not many people who have such a level of alchemy, and almost all of them are in Medicine King Mountain.

Could it be that the person in front of him is from Medicine King Mountain?

The white-haired old man secretly guessed.

Before long, the shop assistant hurried over with a wooden box.

The material of this wooden box was a bit special. It was obviously set with a restriction and pasted with a yellow talisman, which faintly flickered with spiritual light.

The white-haired old man took the wooden box, uncovered the yellow talisman, and then used a unique set of unsealing hand gestures to open the wooden box.

Suddenly, a wisp of illusory white mist flew out of it, as if it had a spirit, transforming into a four-clawed, single-horned white mirage dragon with fine scales, and let out a faint dragon roar, flying and brandishing its claws in the air.

The white-haired old man pointed his finger, and the white mirage dragon immediately collapsed, turning into strands of white mirage gas, which poured into a white pearl in the wooden box.

This white pearl was about the size of a ping pong ball, smooth and clean, with a faint white light on its surface.

When the mirage gas poured into it, the white pearl began to become transparent, and there was even a tiny mirage dragon as thin as an earthworm, flying up and down inside the pearl.

Seeing this scene, even a seven-year-old child would know that this was a treasure!

Gu Yuan reached out and grabbed the mirage dragon pearl in his hand, looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help but nod slightly.

Yes, it is indeed a genuine mirage dragon pearl, and it should be from a Golden Core-level mirage dragon.
