Chapter 663: Selling the Pill Formula

Heavenly Pill Tower.

Shopkeeper Hao was just about to yawn when he saw a black-faced Foundation Establishment cultivator in black robes, looking fierce and menacing, stride in; his heart immediately tightened.

The reason was simple—the other party's cultivation had clearly reached the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, perhaps even the "False Core" realm!

Even in Qianyang City, a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator was considered a minor expert, so he couldn't help but become three parts more solemn, putting on a smiling face: "This customer, may I ask what kind of Spirit Pill you wish to purchase?"

Looking at Shopkeeper Hao's fawning expression, Aaron felt a sense of emotion; indeed, the level of an Immortal Cultivator's cultivation was everything.

He had been interacting with the other party using the identity of Shen Fei for nearly ten years, yet he had never seen Shopkeeper Hao lower his status like this.

"I am not buying, but selling pills!"

"This person is, after all, at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage; unless a Golden Core Cultivator is dispatched, it will be difficult to take him down in a short time... but Ancestor Hao is not in the city, and it would be too late even if he rushed over." Elder Huang sighed: "Furthermore... although my family has some face at the City Lord's Mansion, we have not reached the point where we can defy the rules and take action within Qianyang City... This person might also be hiding some trump cards; the risk is too great, too great..."

"I am willing to swear a Heart Demon Oath! I guarantee this pill formula is genuine and will not be sold to a second party!" Aaron smiled: "Moreover, the reason I am willing to sell the pill formula is simply to gather resources for Golden Core... If your tower has a 'Duer Pill', one pill can be worth 100,000 Spirit Stones; Ziyun Pills that increase Dharma Power will also do..."

"The money and goods are exchanged... I shall take my leave!"

Shopkeeper Hao was startled; although Heavenly Pill Tower also had Spirit Pills that could lure Spirit Fish, the selling price was usually over a thousand Spirit Stones!

At this cost, unless one was lucky enough to catch extremely rare Spirit Fish, it would inevitably be a loss, so there wasn't much of a market for it.

Shopkeeper Hao gasped, and the look he gave Aaron was filled with even more admiration.

Aaron waved his hand and strode out of Heavenly Pill Tower.

Then, his expression unchanged, he flicked the pill into the water pool inside the hall.

Elder Huang patted his Spirit Beast Bag, and streaks of light appeared, turning into snow-white fish that dove into the water, crazily chasing after those wisps of fragrant spiritual liquid.

This person's heart toward the Taoism truly made him admire him endlessly.

Shopkeeper Hao thought for a moment and called over an assistant: "Go quickly and invite Elder Huang!"

The tension and pressure brought by this kind of rapid decision-making was something he hadn't experienced in many years.

"The effect of this pill is on par with our tower's 'Hundred Fragrance Fish Bait'!"

A strange fragrance spread out.

"Agreed!"

Then, the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist actually began to bulge, emitting hissing cries of distress.

Shopkeeper Hao turned and said: "This bottle of Spirit Pills, our tower will take it... but I must ask, may I know where you obtained these Spirit Pills, fellow Daoist?"

Not long after, an old man with white hair, wearing a bright yellow ramie robe and carrying a faint scent of medicinal pills, walked over and bowed to the two: "Shopkeeper Hao..."

Although he could go fishing himself, Ten Thousand Demon Lake was too dangerous; what if he encountered Demon Cultivators? What if he encountered a Demon King?

Furthermore, selling pills could also lead to his source being traced; the more often he did it, the greater the probability of encountering danger.

"No... judging from the pharmacology, there should be no problem, it's just that this old man did not expect that this pill formula could be so cheap." Elder Huang smiled bitterly: "Calculated this way, the cost of opening one furnace is no more than a few dozen Spirit Stones; this is... exorbitant profit!"

'Completely unable to tell what kind of raw materials were used...'

If this 'Lure Fish Pill' was truly as the black-faced man said, then it would be profitable, and the market would surely be good.

"Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist!"

Elder Huang took it and looked, his eyes bulging: "Actually..."

"This... if we can record the pill formula, our tower is naturally willing." Shopkeeper Hao had his thoughts exposed and his old face flushed, but he answered calmly soon after.

Elder Huang nodded, his expression becoming more serious; he picked up the pill and a trace of Dharma Power permeated it.

"This, please grant me one pill so I can examine it."

This fragrance was integrated as one, the alchemy technique was quite brilliant, perhaps coming from the hands of a Third-tier alchemist...

It must be said, Shopkeeper Hao was tempted!

"This pill formula was obtained during an expedition; do you want it?"

Elder Huang told Shopkeeper Hao the result and retreated on his own, appearing quite eccentric.

The black-faced Demon Cultivator played by Aaron crossed his arms and said proudly.

After putting away the Spirit Pills and taking a Storage Bag filled with Spirit Stones, he nodded and stuffed a Jade Slip into Shopkeeper Hao's hand.

Shopkeeper Hao didn't even think, placing the pill on a jade plate and observing it carefully; the more he looked, the more alarmed he became.

"Elder Huang..." Shopkeeper Hao hurriedly returned the salute: "There is a Lure Fish Pill here, I would like to ask you to take a look!"

"Straightforward... to tell you the truth, I came here this time to sell a pill formula, and regardless of whether this deal goes through or not, I will not come here to trade again." Aaron smiled slightly: "The 'Lure Fish Pill' formula, a flat price of 300,000 Spirit Stones! Make a decision now; I will not give you too much time to calmly notify a Golden Core Ancestor to rush over!"

To be able to resolutely abandon such great wealth, just for the sake of Golden Core.

Aaron flicked his finger, and a pill like white jade landed on the counter.

"Lure Fish Pill, can attract Spirit Fish over a large area!" Aaron said concisely, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "The key is... it only costs 750 Spirit Stones a bottle!"

Shopkeeper Hao watched the other party's retreating back, light flickering in his eyes: "Elder Huang... what do you think?"

Aaron checked carefully; as a Third-tier alchemist, this was an easy task.

"Is there a problem with the pill formula?" Shopkeeper Hao asked nervously.

"Fellow Daoist... the cost of this pill will be on our tower!"

Aaron asked with a look that was not quite a smile on his face.

Even after nine years of scouting, and knowing this Heavenly Pill Tower had the best reputation, he did not trust the integrity of Immortal Cultivators.

Shopkeeper Hao's hands trembled slightly, and then he handed the pill formula to Elder Huang behind him.

Shopkeeper Hao said solemnly.

Shopkeeper Hao immediately had people go down to prepare, and not long after, he returned with several Storage Bags: "Our tower only has one Duer Pill in stock, and fifteen bottles of Ziyun Pills, valued at 150,000 Spirit Stones, how about that?"

It would be better to take a risk once and make a big haul!

Even if selling the pill formula was a disadvantage, perhaps indirectly losing millions or tens of millions of Spirit Stones, as long as he could reach Golden Core, it was a profit!

Shopkeeper Hao's eyes darted around, and cold sweat even appeared on his forehead.

"Agreed."

Selling the pill formula was a helpless move.

"Th-this..."

"I never expected you to be an alchemist, my apologies for the disrespect..." Shopkeeper Hao cupped his hands: "May I ask what kind of Spirit Pill you wish to sell?"

"Fellow Daoist, how can you guarantee the authenticity of this pill formula? Furthermore... the amount of Spirit Stones this establishment can mobilize in a short time is limited!"

"Then forget it... This person has gifted such a massive profit to our establishment, it is already enough for us to line our pockets until we are stuffed."

Shopkeeper Hao stroked his chin, his eyes shining with Light: "Old Huang... is the cost of alchemy really this low?"
