Chapter 2313: Layout

Su Xiao checked the Alchemy section on plant blending. He had previously unlocked a new recipe during the Strongest Contest, named "Tree of Life."

【Tree of Life: Each blending requires 1300 mana points and consumes materials: Lost Fire Wood Core, Soul Crystal (Small) x1, Wood-type Life Essence, Resurrection Water, Crystal Bottle.】

【Effect: After drinking/injecting, permanently increases 3 points of real stamina attribute (this potion is effective below 150 real attribute points; repeated use is ineffective).】

Su Xiao exchanged for the materials needed for the Tree of Life potion by consuming Paradise Coins. Adding up all types of materials, he could exchange for a total of five sets of materials for the Tree of Life potion, reaching the exchange limit.

Not only were the materials for the Tree of Life potion restricted, but the main materials for other permanent buff potions were also limited. To continue exchanging, he would have to wait until the next world progress ended.

Each type of permanent buff potion had one main material. The main materials were very rare; the higher the tier, the more could be exchanged.

The main material for the Tree of Life potion was Resurrection Water, and the main material for the Radiant Potion was Soul Toughness Bud. Unless Su Xiao could obtain these two main materials within the mission world, he could not mass-produce permanent buff potions. Even so, blending potions was still highly profitable.

Several materials were placed on the alchemy test bench. This was the material required for one Tree of Life potion. Including the consumption of Soul Crystals, the cost price of one bottle of Tree of Life potion was around 400,000 Paradise Coins.

There were only five opportunities. Su Xiao blended slowly to ensure the success rate.

Su Xiao first processed the materials, then catalyzed them with mental power. His current alchemy achievements were largely due to his high real intelligence attribute. If the intelligence attribute were not high enough, one shouldn't even think about mastering alchemy. The catalysis of materials alone could drive someone with low intelligence to hysteria.

Unknowingly, Su Xiao's blending speed became faster and faster. Everything was so natural, falling into place.

Extraordinary T-material resonance, life material fission, fusion, purification, deep extraction.

Su Xiao poured the light green potion into the crystal bottle, pressed the bottle mouth shut, and the blending was complete.

Looking at the Tree of Life potion in his hand, Su Xiao felt slightly puzzled. After interpreting the Alchemy Secret Tome, his feeling when blending the Tree of Life was very smooth.

In layman's terms, the feel was excellent; there was no need to be careful everywhere. Throughout the entire blending process, except for some unfamiliarity in technique, there were basically no major problems.

The most important question arose: how many Paradise Coins should one bottle of Tree of Life potion be sold for? You know, this thing could permanently increase 3 points of stamina attribute. No matter what specialty a Qiyuezhe had, they wouldn't complain about their stamina attribute being too high. Stamina was an attribute closely related to survival.

In other words, the Tree of Life potion was suitable for all Qiyuezhe.

If a Chamber of Commerce obtained this potion, it would definitely be sold in the form of an auction. Su Xiao did not intend to do so. Most employee merchants didn't care about reputation and only looked at immediate interests. However, the name of Pharmacist Shengyan had been managed by Su Xiao and Xiang Bubu for a long time, and it was widely spread even among high-tier large adventure groups.

During the time Xiang Bubu set up a stall, it had forgotten how many times it had been wooed—definitely hundreds of times—all wanting to woo Pharmacist Shengyan to join an adventure group or Chamber of Commerce.

Xiang Bubu had a great advantage: it did not act with Su Xiao in the mission world and basically did not participate in combat.

People who knew Su Xiao knew Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baha. As for Xiang Bubu, very few people knew, which made the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan more hidden.

When the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan was managed to a certain extent, it would have great potential. Pharmacist Shengyan represented: "Integrity, never auctioning potions at high prices, never asking for exorbitant prices, a gentle-natured alchemist."

May I ask, if such a person issued a commission to a high-tier Qiyuezhe or a high-tier adventure group, would they refuse? The answer was absolutely not. Instead, they would find ways to get on good terms with Pharmacist Shengyan, striving to buy permanent buff potions from Pharmacist Shengyan based on favors. The potions Xiang Bubu placed at the stall were simply too damn hard to grab.

This was the identity Su Xiao wanted to manage. Some things he couldn't do, the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan could easily do.

And this could prevent trouble. If Su Xiao were hostile to a high-tier adventure group, he could use the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan to calculate that adventure group until they were confused.

The Blood Gate adventure group that was once hostile to Su Xiao should be glad that Su Xiao hadn't created the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan before, otherwise, the Blood Gate would be several times more miserable than it was now.

Not only within the Reincarnation Paradise, but when Su Xiao's strength reached a certain level, he could manage the identity of Pharmacist Shengyan in the Void. At that time, he could completely use this identity to deal with the Arcane Eternal Star.

Just imagine, if Su Xiao established cooperation with Mage Sage Sephilia under the identity of the Saint Flame Alchemist and built preliminary trust, then Sephilia would be in for a disaster.

Therefore, Su Xiao decided to price the Tree of Life potion at 1.51 million Paradise Coins per bottle. Excluding costs, he would net 1.11 million Paradise Coins per bottle. As for the loss from blending failure, after interpreting the Alchemy Secret Tome, his failure rate in blending potions at this stage was very low.

If converted into Soul Coins, it would be 10 Soul Coins per bottle.

A total of 5 bottles could be blended, with a net profit of 5.55 million Paradise Coins. It looked very dark, but it was a fatherly price.

Compared to selling for Paradise Coins, Soul Coins were preferred for purchase. The reason was that 1 Soul Coin could be exchanged for 150,000 Paradise Coins at any time in the Reincarnation Paradise. Selling to employee merchants or high-tier Qiyuezhe, 1 coin = 151,370 Paradise Coins.

But if one wanted to use Paradise Coins to buy Soul Coins, one could only go to the Chamber of Commerce. Chambers of Commerce that were not very familiar were simply unwilling to sell Soul Coins.

Bottle after bottle of Tree of Life potion was blended by Su Xiao. Two hours later, 5 bottles of Tree of Life potion were neatly placed on the test bench.

Su Xiao picked up one of the bottles, flicked open the cork with his thumb, and drank it. There was a faint bitterness, and after a while, there was a sweet aftertaste in his mouth.

A warm current rampaged through Su Xiao's body. After closing his eyes and sensing for a moment, he stored the remaining 4 bottles of Tree of Life potion in the team storage space. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Xiang Bubu each got one bottle. This time, they were not for sale to the outside world.

The benefits obtained were basically converted into strength. With nothing to do, Su Xiao took out a notebook from the storage space. The content on it was recorded by himself.

In the second round of the Strongest Contest, Su Xiao entered the Death House. During this period, he traded with a dead person. He and the other party contributed part of alchemy, and the other party rewarded him with a method of making a talisman.

This was a method of making a one-time talisman. The talisman had the characteristics of a prop and also the characteristics of equipment. Simply learning this method of making a talisman required investing a lot of time and resources.

Su Xiao's idea was to combine alchemy with this method of making a talisman to create an alchemy talisman. The effect was not yet clear; this was just Su Xiao's hypothesis.

After studying for a while, Su Xiao had some clues, but he found that this kind of research could be done anywhere, and there was no need to continue wasting the precious time spent in the Reincarnation Paradise.

Leaving the exclusive room, Su Xiao walked toward the trial ground. After arriving at the trial ground, he first helped Sha treat her hidden injuries, and then entered the fifth floor of the Land of All Living Things.

Su Xiao still had 544,300 Paradise Coins left. The fifth floor of the Land of All Living Things consumed 50 Paradise Coins per hour. He hesitated for a moment, sold 10 Soul Coins, and got 1.5 million Paradise Coins.

【You have entered the fifth floor of the Land of All Living Things.】

The bitter cultivation began. There was no strength without reason. Su Xiao's swordsmanship was developed in the Land of All Living Things. Here, not only did it consume a lot of resources, but even with his current physique, he would be exhausted for a period of time after every bitter cultivation in the Land of All Living Things.

This also led to Su Xiao basically not going out in the real world. Before returning to the real world every time, he was so tired in the Land of All Living Things that he didn't even want to move his hands.

Su Xiao basically didn't go out, which made the scavenger team leader in the nearby area want to send a banner, writing: "Model Sixth-Tier Qiyuezhe." ===== CHAPTER 2314 =====
