Chapter 168: Gourmet Shop Upgrade (Fifth Update)

In the world of Battle Through the Heavens

"Phew, it’s finally done!"

Inside the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts, Yao Lao let out a long breath. Looking at the few glowing pills inside the furnace before him, now perfectly round and unified, he revealed a smile.

"Is, is this finally refined?"

Seeing Yao Lao begin to collect the pills, Xiao Yan’s eyes lit up instantly, and he walked over.

"Collect!"

Yao Lao waved his hand, and the four pills inside the furnace flew into his palm.

Four pills from one furnace—Yao Lao was quite satisfied with this.

"This is the Grade 6 pill, the Azure Underworld Longevity Pill!"

Looking at the pill in Yao Lao’s hand, Xiao Yan couldn't help but ask with excitement.

"Yes, a Grade 6 pill, the Azure Underworld Longevity Pill. One person can only take one in their lifetime, but it can increase one's lifespan by ten years!"

Yao Lao spoke, and Xiao Yan on the other side became instantly excited.

The effect of the pill alone was already ten years of life.

If it were further processed by the Immortal and added to watermelon juice, wouldn't it take off instantly?

A mere thousand-year ginseng added to watermelon juice had such terrifying effects.

This pill, which adds ten years of life to others, must be stronger than a thousand-year ginseng!

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan immediately opened the member group and posted the refined pill into it.

Xiao Yan: "Everyone, the Grade 6 Azure Underworld Longevity Pill. One pill can increase your lifespan by ten years. First come, first served!"

As the words were spoken in the group, the crowd, hearing about ten years of life, suddenly lost interest.

Yue Buqun: "Brother Xiao Yan, only ten years of life? That’s a bit weak!"

Zhang Sanfeng: "That’s right, it’s not even as effective as the watermelon juice!"

Abbot Xuanci: "Amitabha, Benefactor Xiao Yan, can this pill of yours be put into watermelon juice?"

Ning Caichen: "Hiss, a pill combined with watermelon juice—wouldn't the effect be sky-high?"

Tang San: "Understood, so that’s how Brother Xiao Yan’s pills are used!"

Great Ming War God: "In that case, the power of this pill should be quite impressive!"

Stark: "Not bad, not bad. I’ve been waiting for this. Ten thousand taels of gold, give me one first!"

Great Qin Emperor: "Hmm, I will also offer ten thousand taels of gold for one!"

Luo Shiyi: "Tsk tsk, as a poor person, I can only watch silently!"

Lin Dong: "That’s right, me too, same here!"

Rock Lee: "I’ve been watching silently the whole time."

Inside the member group, everyone was discussing it.

Seeing the bids from Stark and Ying Zheng, Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown slightly.

Ten thousand taels of gold per pill—to be honest, that’s a bit low.

At least, in Xiao Yan’s view, it was a bit low.

After all, a single blade of grass from Tang San’s side was worth thirty thousand taels of gold.

Was his pill only worth this much?

However, thinking that this was a pill and he could continue refining more if he ran out, Xiao Yan felt relieved.

Since the price couldn't go up, he would just have to go for quantity.

Xiao Yan: "Very well, you two. Next time I go to the Gourmet Shop, I will bring them to you!"

After saying this in the member group, Xiao Yan began to think silently.

Relying solely on Yao Lao and himself, he feared they would work themselves to death without refining much.

Therefore, he needed to expand his influence now and find a group of alchemists to help.

By then, even if he could only refine one hundred Azure Underworld Longevity Pills a month, he would still be making a huge profit.

If he could establish an assembly-line style of refining, wouldn't he be rich instantly?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but get excited.

Meanwhile, in the member group, following the purchases by Stark and Ying Zheng, the others didn't have much interest.

Ten thousand taels of gold wasn't expensive, but it wasn't necessary either.

As for the matter of lifespan, which one of them didn't already have a few hundred years of life?

Only Ying Zheng would be relatively interested in such a thing.

And just as everyone was discussing Xiao Yan’s affairs, Su Mu on the other side began to get a headache.

Inside the Gourmet Shop at this moment

"Ding, detected that the current Gourmet Shop level meets the requirements for an upgrade. Do you wish to upgrade?"

Just as he was finishing the day's business and preparing to close the shop, Su Mu abruptly heard the notification sound in his mind.

For a moment, Su Mu was slightly stunned.

Upgrade?

He had finally waited for this upgrade!

Did such a question even need to be asked?

Of course, he would upgrade decisively.

"System, upgrade immediately!"

Without hesitation, Su Mu chose to upgrade directly.

Recently, as more and more people came, the shop was almost full. If he didn't upgrade, he feared people would have to stand to eat in the future.

Su Mu had long wanted to change this situation.

Unfortunately, his crappy system had never allowed an upgrade.

He didn't expect that after waiting so long, he could finally upgrade.

"Ding, the Gourmet Shop is upgrading. Please wait!"

However, what surprised Su Mu was that this time, the system only gave a notification sound for the upgrade and then went silent.

"Uh, System, do I not need to do any tasks this time?"

Thinking back to the previous times, he had to complete tasks to obtain dishes.

This time, there was no upgrade task?

Su Mu couldn't help but feel puzzled for a moment.

Something was wrong, very wrong!

"Ding, system is upgrading. Please wait, Host!"

But his question received no response; in his mind, there was only the direct mechanical voice.

For a moment, seeing the system help him upgrade without issuing a task,

Su Mu felt very comfortable!

He could upgrade without doing tasks; he was happy to be idle.

Thinking of such a double blessing, Su Mu closed the shop contentedly and went upstairs to rest.

But what Su Mu didn't know was that in the member group on the other side, things had completely exploded!

Inside the member group

"Ding, this Gourmet Shop will undergo an upgrade. After the upgrade, a new membership system will be opened, new dishes will be unlocked, and partial customization permissions will be enabled!"

"Ding, to reward everyone for their love of the food, a random member task is now issued: Clear the Dungeon task!"

"Ding, upon completion of the task, you will receive one million member points!"

The people who were chatting in the member group were all stunned when they heard the mechanical voice suddenly ring out.

The Immortal’s Gourmet Shop was going to upgrade?

And it was going to open a new membership system, new dishes, and partial customization permissions.

At this moment, everyone was excited.

But after the excitement, many people looked curiously at the random member task!

This was the first time such a task had appeared in the member group.

Naturally, many were curious.

They reached out to tap the task, and then a flood of information poured into their minds.

For a moment, looking at the task content, everyone was dumbfounded.

This, this task is too exaggerated!
