Chapter 849 Guard
Chapter 849 Guard
Panshi City, Panlong Pavilion.
This is a magic pill shop, a relatively unknown one in Rock City.
The name sounds impressive, but the scale is only medium. It only sells various elixirs and immortal pills, and also buys back spiritual herbs or immortal medicines.
This shop was a place Chen Yunhao specifically chose for shipping, and they had been cooperating for several years.
A shop that's too small can't offer a good price, while a shop that's too big is likely to bully its customers.
This is the result of Chen Yunhao's many years of experience, which is why he specifically chose Panlong Pavilion as a shop for long-term cooperation in Panshi City.
Chen Yunhao has all sorts of spiritual herbs and immortal plants, but he also doesn't lack elixirs right now.
So he pretended to be an alchemist, sold some of the elixirs copied from the ancient mirror in exchange for immortal stones.
Today is the day Chen Yunhao sells elixirs, and the one he sells the most of is the Earth Origin Elixir.
This stuff is quite common in the immortal realm; it's one of the most frequently used elixirs by earth immortals. It's inconspicuous and reasonably priced.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Chen, we've been waiting for you! I reckon you'll be here in the next day or two...!"
As soon as Chen Yunhao stepped into the gate of Panlong Pavilion, a familiar voice rang out.
Approaching them was a middle-aged cultivator, with a cultivation level of mid-stage Earth Immortal.
This person is the head of the local Panlong Pavilion, named Luo Tian, who is also an alchemist.
He's a true alchemist, capable of refining second-grade immortal pills, not someone like Chen Yunhao who's just seeking fame and fortune.
"Brother Luo, what do you mean by that?"
Although Chen Yunhao had known this person for several years and had dealt with him dozens of times, they were quite familiar with each other.
However, there has never been such enthusiasm and urgency as this time, which obviously has a reason.
"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Chen is capable of refining a high-grade second-rank immortal pill?"
"Fellow Daoist Luo thinks too highly of me. I can barely refine even first-grade immortal pills, let alone second-grade ones!"
Chen Yunhao shook his head with some regret.
He knows his own situation best; in fact, he can't even refine a ninth-grade elixir, let alone a celestial elixir.
However, if you don't have a profession to disguise in the city, it will be even more difficult to get by.
Because wherever there are people, there are social circles and factions.
If one were an ordinary immortal, one would not be able to integrate into these circles.
By using his identity as an alchemist, Chen Yunhao could access circles he wouldn't normally have access to, which would be beneficial to him.
Just like now, Luo Tian must have something to say to him. If he were an ordinary person, how could he possibly find him?
"Fellow Daoist Luo, is there something you need? Please tell me."
Chen Yunhao asked curiously.
"I have just obtained a recipe for a second-grade high-level elixir and would like to invite a few friends to refine it together. The key is that one of the main ingredients is not here and I need to go to the site to collect it for the refining."
Luo Tian shook his head with some regret and said.
"I'm sorry, Brother Luo, there's nothing I can do to help you!"
"It's alright. Fellow Daoist Chen is here to offer immortal pills again today, isn't he?"
"Yes, I've refined ten more Earth Origin Pills...!"
"Fellow Daoist Chen's alchemy skills are truly remarkable. After so many transactions, I've noticed that every single one of your Earth Origin Pills is exactly the same. That's quite something!"
Luo Tian examined the elixir that Chen Yunhao had copied and remarked with some emotion.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, you flatter me. It's just that I refine a lot of Earth Origin Pills...!"
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Chen Yunhao's face, and he quickly changed the subject.
"I wonder what the elixir of immortality Fellow Daoist Luo is going to refine is?"
It would be rather rash for Chen Yunhao to ask about the pill formula directly.
After all, elixir formulas are extremely precious and cannot be easily passed on, especially new elixirs.
However, if you only ask about one or two of the medicinal herbs, that won't cause any harm.
"It's nothing, just a few wisps of chaotic energy. We need to go deep into the chaotic void sea to find it. How about Fellow Daoist Chen becomes our guard?"
Luo Tian put away the Earth Origin Pill, then suddenly thought of something else and said.
Chen Yunhao was certainly familiar with the Chaos Qi; he had obtained it when he was in the lower realm, which transformed his physique into the Chaos Yuan Body.
Chaotic energy is an invaluable treasure for the lower realms, even comparable to immortal energy.
However, after arriving in the Immortal Realm, Chen Yunhao learned that the Chaos Qi was also widely distributed there and was not a rare thing. It was of great use to cultivators below the level of immortals.
Most cultivators in the Immortal Realm know that the easiest place to obtain Chaos Qi is the Chaos Void Sea, which is one of the origins of the name Chaos Void Sea.
Only within the Chaotic Void Sea can a large amount of chaotic energy exist. Of course, it's not so abundant that it can be found everywhere.
Chaotic Qi only appears in certain special places within the Chaotic Void Sea, and its quantity is much greater than that of Law Qi.
Chen Yunhao was aware of these circumstances, but this was the first time he had heard of using chaotic energy as one of the ingredients for elixirs, which was indeed beyond his imagination.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, could you please explain in detail what the purpose of the guards is?"
Chen Yunhao's curiosity was piqued; it seemed that even a high-grade second-rank elixir was no ordinary pill.
"Fellow Daoist Chen should know that the chaotic energy is not easy to collect artificially. It is best to use it on the spot, including when refining it into immortal pills..."
Luo Tianzai explained everything to Chen Yunhao in detail, but he didn't mention anything about the elixir.
However, Chen Yunhao had a general idea of what Luo Tian's plan was like.
First, Luo Tian needs to find three alchemists, at least those who can refine second- or third-grade immortal pills.
Luo Tian himself is a second-grade alchemist, so he only needs to find two more people.
Their destination was a certain place in the Chaotic Void Sea, where Luo Tian had discovered the presence of chaotic energy.
He planned to refine pills on-site there, but the chaotic void sea was also fraught with danger.
Once the three alchemists begin refining pills, they cannot stop or be disturbed.
Therefore, they need to find some guards to protect their safety and defend against the invasion of the Chaos Beasts.
These guards weren't just randomly chosen; they had to be people you knew well.
Chen Yunhao happens to be someone Luo Tian respects, because Chen Yunhao is always quiet when he comes, and he never argues with Luo Tian about how much money he is worth.
Moreover, the two had known each other for many years, and Chen Yunhao was not inherently a bad person, so Luo Tian could sense it.
So even if Chen Yunhao couldn't help him refine pills, he could still be a bodyguard that Chen Yunhao could trust.
Of course, it wasn't just Chen Yunhao alone; there were at least five or six guards.
There will be compensation; there's no such thing as working for nothing in this world!
