Chapter 201: Dongyue Shocked, A Kindred Spirit!

The towering Taishan Mountain leads all peaks.

Even though the Huo family is the most powerful in Taishan Market, everyone must give face to the Kang family of Taishan.

After all, the ancestors of the Kang family came from the Yuding Sword Sect, with a deep background.

This market is named after the Kang family's ancestral land.

A sound-transmitting paper crane, riding the swift wind, soon drilled into the formation on the mountainside.

Before long, someone found Kang Dongyue with the transmission.

"Grandfather, the transmission from the Jinshi Pavilion says that someone wants to sell elixirs."

Kang Dongyue frowned, "Isn't there a family elder arranged there? Xianqiong, don't come to me for everything; you should also learn to take over family matters."

Kang Xianqiong said helplessly, "This time, they specifically named you to appraise them."

"Hmm?"

"First-rank top-grade elixirs, and it seems there are a lot of them!"

While speaking, Kang Xianqiong took out the pink jade bottle.

Kang Dongyue, in surprise, carefully opened the jade bottle.

A hot and restless elixir fragrance instantly spread out.

He raised his eyebrows and immediately held his breath.

But the young woman beside him was not so vigilant; just one breath of elixir fragrance entered her body, and her heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

"This is... Zhongmiao Pill?"

Kang Dongyue muttered, then became thoughtful.

"It seems that the little friend from Dahe Market back then has come."

"I didn't expect his alchemy skills to progress so fast; in just a few years, he has refined top-grade elixirs."

"Now that there are changes in Dahe Market, is he trying to use these elixirs to seek protection from our Kang family?"

"With such outstanding alchemy attainments, perhaps I can..."

While he was muttering, he discovered a somewhat amorous atmosphere in the air.

He turned his head sharply.

His granddaughter, Kang Xianqiong, had a flushed face, her eyes blurred, and between her watery eyes, it seemed as if silk could be pulled.

One hand had already subconsciously touched her bulging chest.

"What kind of behavior is this!"

With a sharp shout, a splash of water hit Kang Xianqiong's face.

Splash!

Kang Xianqiong trembled all over and woke up in a daze.

Looking at her grandfather's gloomy expression, she immediately shivered.

"I, I..."

"You what!" Kang Dongyue stared at his granddaughter with hatred for her lack of success, "Cultivating too fast, have you forgotten to cultivate your heart? You can't even resist this little bit of elixir fragrance; how will you inherit our Kang family's legacy in the future? Huo Hu of the Huo family has already returned from the Flame Alliance Foundation Establishment, and you are still Qi Refining..."

After a long scolding, Kang Xianqiong's little mouth pouted, and she was about to cry.

As a daughter, she naturally had no defense beside her powerful grandfather whom she trusted the most.

Who knew that the elixir was so filthy and low-class.

Just by smelling it, she had feelings.

Now, she was scolded too.

"Crying and crying, it's all my fault for protecting you too well."

"Hmph!"

"I punish you to be confined in the Cliff of Reflection for three months!"

Kang Dongyue flicked his large sleeve and left directly.

Looking at the direction of his escape light, it was clearly heading towards Taishan Market at the foot of the mountain.

Kang Xianqiong puffed out her little mouth, her little face rounded with anger.

"It's all that damn alchemist's fault!"

"Making me make such a fool of myself in front of Grandfather!"

"Don't let me know who you are..."

Kang Xianqiong scolded for a while and walked obediently towards the Cliff of Reflection.

After walking halfway, her eyes rolled around.

"Three months, it didn't say which day to start."

"It's normal for me to go buy some daily necessities first, right!"

Hehe!

With a chuckle, she drove her flying magic tool and quietly went down Taishan Mountain.

"Little friend, long time no... eh, who are you?"

In the VIP hall on the second floor of Jinshi Pavilion.

Kang Dongyue looked at the man in front of him hesitantly.

Luo Chen wiped his face, and the appearance changed by the secret technique immediately returned to its original state.

He smiled slightly and cupped his hands.

"Senior, long time no see!"

"You!"

Kang Dongyue's expression changed instantly, looking at Luo Chen in disbelief.

It wasn't because of the disguise technique.

But the spiritual power fluctuation the other party was showing at this moment.

It was actually at the Foundation Establishment stage, just like him.

Although relatively lower than himself, it was already a genuine second-level Foundation Establishment!

How many years have passed since then!

When we first met, I remember it was the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, right?

Kang Dongyue's expression was dazed.

Even after sitting down and Luo Chen catching up on old times, he still hadn't reacted.

With this cultivation speed, even in a major sect, he would be cultivated as a true disciple, or even a Dao seed!

"Senior?"

"Don't call me Senior anymore. Since you have already established your foundation, you are a kindred spirit. Just call me fellow Daoist."

Amidst the sighing, Kang Dongyue finally recovered his state of mind quickly.

He looked at Luo Chen, sighing endlessly, and nodded repeatedly.

"No wonder you can refine top-grade Zhongmiao Pills. It turns out you have already established your foundation. I'm afraid you can even try to get started with second-rank elixirs!"

Try?

I have already refined them.

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Senior, you flatter me. It's been many years, and your cultivation has improved again; you are already in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment!"

Flattery is a two-way street!

Everyone can say nice things.

Kang Dongyue sighed secretly in his heart; how could he be considered fast!

When he went to Dahe Market, he was already at the third level of Foundation Establishment.

He bought a large amount of cultivation resources at the auction, and only then did he luckily advance to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in these two years.

"Let's not talk about these polite words!"

Kang Dongyue took out the pink jade bottle, "On the way here, I have already appraised this elixir. It is indeed top-grade, and the medicinal power is extremely extraordinary. Ordinary Qi Refining cultivators will be affected just by smelling the elixir fragrance."

"Even for true Foundation Establishment cultivators like us, I think it will have excellent effects after taking it!"

"As for the price, it naturally cannot be discussed as an ordinary first-rank elixir. After all, once an elixir reaches the top grade, it is almost equivalent to a low-grade elixir of a higher rank."

"Therefore, I will give twenty low-grade spirit stones per pill."

"Considering the large quantity, this price might be on the low side..."

"Cough, cough!"

His words were interrupted by Luo Chen.

Under Kang Dongyue's puzzled gaze, Luo Chen gave a wry smile.

"You really flatter me. How can top-grade elixirs be refined in batches? This one alone is already a stroke of luck, obtained by chance."

Kang Dongyue blinked, then burst into hearty laughter.

He patted the table.

"Haha!"

"It was the old man who thought wrong. That's right, a top-grade elixir!"

"It's just that I was shocked by your cultivation progress before, and felt that such a thing happening to you seemed acceptable."

"Hahaha..."

Amidst the laughter, the atmosphere finally returned to a normal state.

The laughter stopped.

Kang Dongyue noticed something wrong again.

"Then you said earlier that you have a large amount of elixirs for sale?"

"Take a look at this elixir."

A jade bottle, from Luo Chen's hand, slowly pushed from the sandalwood table to Kang Dongyue.

Opening the bottle stopper, Kang Dongyue pursed his lips.

He raised his head and looked at Luo Chen suspiciously.

"Jade Marrow Elixir... Dan Chenzi?"

"Hmm."

"Hiss!"

Kang Dongyue gasped, his gaze at Luo Chen filled with uncontrollable horror.

Outsiders don't understand where this horror comes from.

Only true alchemists understand why this huge emotional fluctuation exists.

Less than ten years!

Refining a top-grade Zhongmiao Pill doesn't count for much.

At most, one could say Luo Chen has high alchemy talent and a unique understanding of this type of elixir, so he obtained it by chance in a moment of inspiration.

He, Kang Dongyue, also had experiences of obtaining treasures by chance in the elixirs he was most proficient in.

But!

Luo Chen also refined another type of elixir to the top-grade level.

This cannot be described as just high talent.

Terrifying!

Horrifying!

Shocking!

Stunning!

Too many extreme descriptive words can be used to describe Luo Chen's alchemy talent.

Amidst the shock.

Luo Chen's words came leisurely.

"I have a large amount of Jade Marrow Elixir on hand, and they are all top-grade. I wonder if your Jinshi Pavilion can take them?"

"A large amount, how large?"

"A business worth fifty thousand spirit stones. It's best to settle the account with medium-grade spirit stones."

"Let me think..."

Involving business, Kang Dongyue automatically restrained those emotions.

Jinshi Pavilion doesn't just sell his Kang family's elixirs alone.

Usually, they also collect some niche elixirs refined by rogue cultivators and small families.

Only then did they form the golden signboard of Jinshi Pavilion in Taishan Market.

Even the Lingyao Pavilion is not inferior to them in the local low-grade elixir business.

Fifty thousand spirit stones, that's a lot!

But for the Kang family, it's not that they can't take it out.

It's just that if they do, their working capital will be stretched.

After a while.

Kang Dongyue smoothed his eyebrows, "Are all the Jade Marrow Elixirs you have of this quality?"

"Only better, not worse!"

The worse ones were all taken by Luo Chen to feed the River-Swallowing Toad.

"If so, then I... will take them!"

Before Luo Chen could be happy, Kang Dongyue changed the subject, "However, some of them must be exchanged for equivalent resources."

"You know, fifty thousand spirit stones is not a small amount. If we take it all out, our Kang family will also be hurt."

Luo Chen thought for a while and nodded gently.

Exchanging for equivalent resources is a very common way of trading in the immortal cultivation world.

As long as both parties agree.

"There are many types of elixirs involved in our Kang family, among which..."

"I want Golden Quality Jade Liquid!" Luo Chen stared at the old man with burning eyes, "And it must be of particularly good quality, preferably top-grade."

Golden Quality Jade Liquid, a first-rank spiritual medicine.

It has great help for body refining.

It is very suitable for Luo Chen to break through to the perfection of the first stage of body refining.

As for whether the Kang family has top-grade ones?

Luo Chen didn't doubt it at all.

This is one of their family's signature elixirs, refined for hundreds of years, so they must have hoarded a small portion.

Refining top-grade elixirs is difficult.

But one also has to see what rank the alchemist is!

Kang Dongyue is definitely a second-rank alchemist, which can be seen from his easily distinguishing the quality of the elixirs Luo Chen took out many times.

"Top-grade?"

While Kang Dongyue was pondering, Luo Chen suddenly said again.

"If there is a method to resolve elixir poison, I am even willing to make concessions on the wholesale price of Jade Marrow Elixir. Of course, I will pay another normal price to buy the method to resolve elixir poison."

"Method to resolve elixir poison?"

Kang Dongyue looked at Luo Chen in surprise.

Immediately, a thought popped up.

He wouldn't have established his foundation so quickly by crazily swallowing elixirs, would he?

After this thought emerged, combined with Luo Chen's determination to make concessions on the wholesale price of Jade Marrow Elixir, Kang Dongyue was even more convinced of this guess.

Then, there was the surging wave in his heart.

Their Kang family is not a small family.

The ancestor was originally a Foundation Establishment True Person of the Yuding Sword Sect.

Although some sword sect secret techniques cannot be passed on, some common knowledge not announced by major sects in the immortal cultivation world will still be passed on to descendants.

Among them is the saying, "Elixirs are good, but don't be greedy."

Taking too many elixirs will accumulate a large amount of elixir poison.

Even the elixir formulas pushed to the extreme by major alchemy sects like Qingdan Valley, Medicine King Sect, and Mingyuan Sect will have elixir poison residue.

Usually, elixir poison doesn't show any danger.

But when it involves breaking through realms, it will form a natural chasm!

Ordinary people simply cannot break this chasm.

One must have terrifying foundation, huge willpower, and a bit of luck to luckily break through.

Therefore, any major sect, even if it is oily and rich, will deliberately control the elixir supply of its disciples.

Especially disciples with outstanding talent!

They would rather give the other party a top-grade elixir than let them swallow a thousand low-grade elixirs.

The value of a top-grade elixir naturally cannot compare to a thousand low-grade elixirs.

Major sects are not stingy, but they don't want to ruin a good seedling.

And this Luo Chen, I remember Liu Hecai said, his aptitude is not very good.

Initially, he was just a small rogue cultivator!

Being able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage in such a short time.

I'm afraid he used his terrifying alchemy talent to exchange for massive resources with alchemy techniques, making up for the defects in his aptitude.

Only then did he establish his foundation!

Sorting out all this, the waves in his heart gradually subsided.

Kang Dongyue's look at Luo Chen was no longer the envy, shock, and amazement from before.

Instead, it turned into a touch of solemnity and pity.

Solemnity for the other party's deep foundation.

Pity for the unimaginable pain the other party must have experienced to overcome the elixir poison barrier when breaking through.

How much willpower must it take to overcome that!

Luo Chen frowned.

Isn't it just asking about the method to resolve elixir poison?

Why did the other party show such an expression.

He doesn't like people showing pity and sympathy towards him.

That!

Will only make him feel that his years of hard work have not been recognized.

Kang Dongyue shook his head, brushing away those thoughts that shouldn't be there.

It's just that his attitude towards Luo Chen was three points more serious than before.

A person who dares to endure great pain in cultivation, even if his cultivation years are not as long as his, is completely worthy of respect.

Only then is he a kindred spirit!

"Our Kang family doesn't have the method to resolve poison."

"Hmm?"

Luo Chen was puzzled. As an old family in Taishan Market, and with alchemy as their main business legacy.

They actually don't have it?

Amidst his confusion, Kang Dongyue changed the subject.

"However, I do know the news of a method to resolve poison."

"News?"

"Yes, and it's right here in Taishan Market, and it will be auctioned soon."

"Auction?" Luo Chen's surprise flashed by, "Auction? But isn't the Yuding Sword Pavilion already empty, and there is still someone organizing an auction?"

He didn't think about the black market auction at all.

The Yuding Sword Pavilion has left, so the Luoyun Sect's Zhenlong Black Market naturally cannot stay here.

"Organized by the Huo family!"

"Strictly speaking, it's a large auction organized by the Flame Alliance supporting the Huo family!"

Chachan Mountain Huo family?

Luo Chen fell into thought.

Kang Dongyue looked at his thoughtful appearance and asked suddenly, "Luotian Society, is it a force you established?"

The retreat time of Luofeng Mountain has been changed, it is three years, not ten years. Ten years is too exaggerated for a small force like Luotian Society. I wrote it too fast at the time, and it was contradictory. Sorry.
