Chapter 18 Medicinal Materials

When he was on Yushui Mountain, the old man of the Holy Emperor asked Xia Yan to keep going up and down the mountain every day, and his body was tough. Through such exercise, Xia Yan also felt much tougher. However, the purpose of improving physical strength through hard training is no longer obvious. Even if Xia Yan still goes up and down Yushui Mountain a hundred times a year, it won't have much effect, at most, it will maintain the current state.

The old man of the Holy Emperor smiled, flicked his fingers on the placket of his clothes and said, "Boy, your current martial arts meridians are already considered small, and you can also withstand the stimulation of some pills! Next, to strengthen your body, we will use some medicines to make your skin, muscles, and bones ten times tougher than now." ”

Xia Yan's whole body was shocked when he heard this, his eyebrows moved, and his eyes looked at the old man of the Holy Emperor, "Use pills to strengthen your body?"

"That's right, the use of drugs to strengthen the body. Boy, if you want to achieve the innate realm as soon as possible, you must also strengthen your body to a certain realm. In fact, there is another wonderful thing about strengthening the body, which is that your spirit will also become tenacious. Hehe, boy, what are the unpopular martial arts you are learning in the square today, do you feel tired?" The old man of the Holy Emperor changed his words, and said that Xia Yan remembered the martial arts practiced by the children of the Xia family in the square today.

Xia Yan couldn't help but perk up, and opened his mouth in surprise: "How do you know?"

Today, when reciting those martial arts, Xia Yan did feel a trace of mental exhaustion, but it was not seriously obvious. Xia Yan also guessed that it might be due to the excessive use of the "Lingluo Secret Codex" to refine martial arts.

"Of course I know that with your current mental tenacity and physical toughness, you can't refine too many martial arts in a short period of time. Hmph, fortunately, what you are refining now are all martial arts that do not enter the stream, and if you refine high-level cheats, you will be even more unbearable. That's why I want you to strengthen your body and strengthen your spirit. The old man of the Holy Emperor rolled his eyes and glanced at Xia Yan, and muttered.

"Then can you refine the pill?" Xia Yan was happy on his face, if he could use the pill to strengthen his body as soon as possible, of course it would be better. Xia Yan is also eager to reach the innate realm. But the innate realm is too difficult, and Xia Yan is still a long way from the innate realm now.

There are nine grades of pills, but even the lowest-grade first-grade pills require at least a spirit master to refine them. Pharmacists require very special talents, and even if they are spirit masters, only a small number of them can become pharmacists. Every pharmacist is the target of the major forces.

Behind a great pharmacist, there must be many strong men. Because, even the Spirit Sect, or even the Spirit Emperor, still needs to refine the elixir. If you can't refine the pill yourself, you have to rely on a pharmacist who can refine the pill.

The dignity of the apothecary's status in the Dragon Continent can even be compared to that of the hall master. Even a junior pharmacist is extremely hard to find. Take the Xia family as an example, the huge Xia family can't afford to hire a junior pharmacist.

"I'm just a soul body now, how can I refine the elixir?"

Xia Yan was immediately deflated and said, "The pharmacist needs at least the strength of the spirit master, how can I refine the pill now?"

"Hehe, refining the elixir requires a spirit master, but you don't need to configure some elixirs! I'll tell you the method, you can do what I say, and you can configure the elixir that increases the strength of the body. "The Holy Emperor old man seems to have a plan in mind.

"Boy, you just need to prepare the ingredients you need, and as I said, you can concoct the potions you need. Well, you first prepare five 50-year-old Qingzhi grasses, five 50-year-old six-leaf fruits, two purple cold grasses, and one hundred-year-old four-eared orchid. That's all for now!" The old man of the Holy Emperor bowed slightly, looking unfinished.

And Xia Yan was already stupid.

He had also heard of these medicinal materials that the old man of the Holy Emperor said, and it was not that he could not find them. However, the price of these medicinal materials is not something that ordinary people dare to compliment.

The six-leaf fruit of Qingzhi grass is very common, but it is not common for 50 years. Especially the four-eared orchid, a hundred-year-old four-eared orchid, is even more precious and abnormal.

"If they have long hair, maybe I can buy them hair. Xia Yan swallowed his saliva and said helplessly.

Even if these materials are purchased by the family, I am afraid that they will have to be carefully considered by the Elders.

"Qingzhi grass, fifty-year-old Qingzhi grass, at least fifty gold coins are needed for one plant. Fifty-year-old six-leaf fruit may get eighty gold coins each, as for purple cold grass, I'm afraid that only auction houses can sell it, at least one hundred gold coins per plant, and a hundred-year-old four-eared orchid, I have seen it once in a pharmacy, and less than five hundred gold coins are not sold at all!" Xia Yan took a deep breath, this calculation, it will cost thousands of gold coins.

Xia Yan touched his pocket, there were only a few gold coins, which he had accumulated for more than ten years.

"I don't care, you have to get these materials. The old man of the Holy Emperor spread his hands, "If you don't find these materials, I don't guarantee when you will be able to break through to the acquired level." ”

"But......" Xia Yan tragically touched his head and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard footsteps outside.

Xia Yan looked out the door, turned to look at the old man of the Holy Emperor, and found that the old man of the Holy Emperor had disappeared without a trace and returned to the Lingluo Ring. Xia Yan opened the door and saw that the third grandfather, Xia Changhe, had come not far from the door.

"Third grandfather!" Xia Yan hurriedly walked out and shouted affectionately.

"Oh, Xia Yan! Okay! Great! Today I can finally stand in front of that old fellow of Xia Lai. Xia Changhe smiled brightly and walked quickly, obviously a big smile.

Xia Lai's generation in the Xia family is a generation higher than him, and Xia Yan's performance in the square today has made Xia Lai's old face dark all the time.

"The Great Elder didn't say anything, did he?" Xia Yan was a little worried.

"What can he say, after all, you are a child of the Xia family, the higher your achievements, the more beneficial it will be to the Xia family. Xia Yan, now your identity and status are not what they used to be. In the future, as long as you don't do anything out of line, then you don't need to look at anyone's eyes in the Xia family. Xia Changhe waved his hand violently, and said with a heroic spirit.

"Third Grandpa, if I mention to the patriarch at this time the matter of letting my mother's spiritual position enter the ancestral hall, will he agree?" Xia Yan always had this matter in his heart.

Xia Changhe's face changed slightly, and he turned to Xia Yan in a serious tone: "Xia Yan, this matter may still not work." As long as that old fellow doesn't agree, the Council of Elders won't be able to get by!"

Hearing this, Xia Yan also understood, it seemed that he had to wait for him to become the master of the Holy Hall.

Suddenly, two rays of light shot out of Xia Yan's eyes, his palms clenched, and he said, "Holy Hall Master, I will do it." ”

Hearing Xia Yan say this, Xia Changhe just smiled slightly, and didn't think that Xia Yan could do it.

"Xia Yan, I can't imagine that you have achieved what you are today in less than a year, you tell the third grandfather, how did you do it?" Xia Changhe rolled his eyes and asked with a smile.

Xia Yan knew that the third grandfather would ask this question, and just now the old man of the Holy Emperor specially instructed him not to talk about him with anyone, so he said, "The third grandfather looks at this ring!"

Xia Yan stretched out his hand in front of Xia Changhe.

"Hmm, does it have something to do with this ring?" Xia Changhe looked stunned, pointed to the black ring, and asked hesitantly.
