Chapter 325: Chapter 150: The Concept of Dao Soldiers, Jiang Country’s Number One Loose Cultivator_1
“`
“Finally, everything’s gathered.”
“`
“`
As he stepped out of the sixth shop, Lu Changsheng let out a sigh of relief.
“`
“`
At the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he had purchased Earth Fire Stones.
“`
“`
But after asking around several shops, none had the Seven-Colored Copper.
“`
“`
Fortunately, luck was on his side; in this shop, for two thousand Spirit Stones, he managed to acquire the last material needed for casting the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp.
“`
“`
“Once I return to Qingzhu Mountain and condense the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp, I’ll be able to forge this Life-bound Spiritual Artifact!”
“`
“`
Having gathered all the necessary materials, Lu Changsheng was in great spirits.
“`
“`
After all, it would have been quite upsetting had he missed just one material.
“`
“`
“Now that I’ve broken through to Foundation Establishment, I should also buy some Elixir Medicines suitable for increasing cultivation level during the Foundation Establishment Stage.”
“`
“`
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
“`
“`
If one wished to cultivate quickly, consuming medicinal pills was indispensable.
“`
“`
Relying on personal cultivation alone, it would take eight to nine years to progress from the First Level to the Second Level of Foundation Establishment.
“`
“`
But with enough Elixir Medicines and the aid of the Seven Luminaries Heart Lamp to refine the Elixir Toxicity and purify mana, it’s estimated it would take just two to three years to reach the Second Level.
“`
“`
Immediately after, Lu Changsheng headed to the old and established ‘Elixir Cauldron Pavilion’ to inquire about elixirs suitable for the Foundation Establishment Stage.
“`
“`
“Senior, our shop has Harmonizing Energy Elixirs and Origin Nurturing Elixirs suitable for the Foundation Establishment Stage.”
“`
“`
“However, the Origin Nurturing Elixirs are all sold out, leaving only one bottle of Harmonizing Energy Elixir.”
“`
“`
“If senior is interested, you may pay a deposit, and we will notify you once we restock.”
“`
“`
Upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s inquiry about Foundation Establishment Elixir Medicines, the shop clerk immediately responded with respect.
“`
“`
“Only one bottle of Harmonizing Energy Elixir?”
“`
“`
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat disappointed.
“`
“`
But he knew that, just like Second Rank Talismans, most shops didn’t stock many Second Rank Elixir Medicines.
“`
“`
Unless one was acquainted with a Second Rank Alchemist.
“`
“`
Otherwise, it would be impossible to make large purchases.
“`
“`
“How many Spirit Stones for the Harmonizing Energy Elixir, and do you have elixirs that increase cultivation level for the Energy Refinement Late Stage?”
“`
“`
Lu Changsheng continued to inquire.
“`
“`
“Senior, the Harmonizing Energy Elixir is one thousand two hundred Spirit Stones.”
“`
“`
“For the Energy Refinement Late Stage cultivation enhancing elixirs, our shop currently has the Energy Refining Powder, Energy Nurturing Elixir, and the Condensing Energy Elixir…”
“`
“`
After quoting the price, the clerk took out a Jade Scroll and began introducing Lu Changsheng to various Elixir Medicines suitable for the Energy Refinement Late Stage.
“`
“`
These elixirs were also somewhat beneficial to Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
“`
“`
For example, the Energy Refining Powder could increase the speed of refining nature’s spiritual energy.
“`
“`
The Energy Nurturing Elixir could nourish spiritual energy and accelerate its circulation within the body.
“`
“`
However, relatively speaking, the effects of these elixirs on Foundation Establishment Cultivators were quite ordinary.
“`
“`
Apart from the Harmonizing Energy Elixir, Lu Changsheng also purchased the store’s remaining three bottles of Energy Nurturing Elixir and one bottle of Condensing Energy Elixir.
“`
“`
In total, he spent two thousand two hundred Spirit Stones.
“`
“`
Just as Lu Changsheng had finished paying the Spirit Stones and was about to leave,
“`
“`
“Little Yu, has the customer who reserved the ‘Three Suns Elixir’ not come to claim it yet?”
“`
“`
“Shopkeeper, that customer has not yet arrived. Three days ago, I sent Xiao Wu to contact the customer at the provided address, but still couldn’t reach them.”
“`
“`
The shopkeeper came downstairs and asked one of the employees.
“`
“`
“Three Suns Elixir?”
“`
“`
Upon hearing this conversation, Lu Changsheng paused mid-step.
“`
“`
He was familiar with this elixir.
“`
“`
A Second Rank Spirit Pill.
“`
“`
Derived from the idea of ‘three suns bring prosperity’.
“`
“`
After consumption, it could not only increase cultivation level, saving years of arduous cultivation,
“`
“`
but also eradicate any hidden illnesses or risks within a cultivator’s body, as if shone upon by the bright sun, dissolving them all away.
“`
“`
It has a somewhat miraculous effect on cultivators at the Perfection stage of Energy Refinement advancing to Foundation Establishment,
“`
“`
even humorously dubbed the ‘Junior Foundation Establishment Elixir.’
“`
“`
Lu Changsheng knew of the Three Suns Elixir and had initially thought to prepare one for himself.
“`
“`
However, this elixir was considered a rather rare Second Rank Elixir Medicine.
“`
“`
He had visited several shops initially and had not managed to purchase it.
“`
“`
Now, hearing this conversation, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but entertain the thought of buying it.
“`
“`
He was already at Foundation Establishment and didn’t need it for himself,
“`
“`
but he could buy it as a gift for his wife, Lu Miaoge.
“`
“`
Currently, Lu Miaoge’s cultivation level was at the Eighth Level of Energy Refinement.
“`
“`
It was estimated she would need another two to three years to break through to the Ninth Level.
“`
“`
By then, Lu Miaoge would be in her forties.
“`
“`
Although at that age, if one could reach the Perfection stage of Energy Refinement and attempt Foundation Establishment before sixty,
“`
“`
as one grows older, the challenge of achieving Foundation Establishment grows greater.
“`
“`
Naturally, he hoped his wife could cultivate to the Perfection stage of Energy Refinement sooner.
“`
“`
Moreover, despite Lu Miaoge having recovered from the previous assassination attempt, it was uncertain if any hidden issues remained.
“`
“`
Possessing a Three Suns Elixir would not only increase cultivation level, but also eliminate any hidden risks in her body, granting Lu Miaoge a greater hope of successfully reaching Foundation Establishment.
“`
“`
“Shopkeeper, since the original buyer has not come to claim the pill, is this ‘Three Suns Elixir’ still for sale?”
“`
“`
“If you are willing to sell, how much would it cost?”
“`
“`
Lu Changsheng respectfully inquired, looking at the shopkeeper.
“`
“`
The shopkeeper was slightly surprised by the question,
“`
“`
but immediately, after hearing from the clerk that Lu Changsheng had just spent over two thousand Spirit Stones and might be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator,
“`
“`
he cheerfully said, “If Daoist friend is interested, our shop naturally is willing to sell.”
“`
“`
“The Three Suns Elixir is priced at three thousand eight hundred Spirit Stones,” the shopkeeper declared.
“`
“`
“Agreed, I’ll take the Three Suns Elixir,” Lu Changsheng said promptly, nodding.
“`
“`
The price wasn’t cheap, but it wasn’t very expensive either.
“`
“`
After all, the prices in large shops tend to be a little higher.
“`
“`
Besides, precious elixirs often fluctuate in price.
“`
“`
“Shopkeeper, I don’t have enough Spirit Stones on me; could I offset the cost with Talismans?”
“`
“`
Lu Changsheng took out three talismans and asked.
“`
“`
He didn’t know exactly how many Spirit Stones he had, as he had not counted them.
“`
“`
But it was roughly between three and four thousand.
“`
“`
In such circumstances, it’s only right to keep some Spirit Stones on hand for emergencies.
“`
“`
“Second Rank lower-quality talismans?”
“`
“`
As the shopkeeper of Elixir Cauldron Pavilion, he naturally had an extraordinary eye.
“`
“`
He took the talismans, looked them over for a moment, and said politely, “Second Rank Talismans can indeed be used for offsetting the cost, but our shop can only accept them at sixty percent of the market price.”
“`
