Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Mysterious Old Man
Chapter Eighty-Nine
Mysterious old man
This hand slapped on Chu Nan's moment without warning, and Chu Nan's figure suddenly stiffened.
His face was full of surprise and shock, but after a moment, he concealed it.
Chu Nan's heart was like turning over the river and the sea, and he was set off by a stormy wave!
The man behind him was so close to him, but he didn't feel it at all.
It wasn't until his hand was clapped on Chu Nan's shoulder that Chu Nan woke up like a dream.
You must know that after Chu Nan entered the innate level, his cultivation and five senses have improved like flying, but they are stronger than the average innate powerhouse.
If it was an ordinary person, Chu Nan would be able to feel the breath of everyone within a radius of ten meters.
But this person, Chu Nan couldn't detect the slightest breath of him, as if the air didn't exist at all.
This person's cultivation and realm are definitely far above himself!
While Chu Nan was pondering, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind him: "This fellow Daoist, what you just said about your second-order elixir can refine your muscles and veins?"
Only then did Chu Nan turn around and take a fixed look.
Behind him was an old man in a black robe, the skin on his face was like a tree covered with folds, hunched over, his old eyes were cloudy, and his hoarse voice made people wonder if he was about to go into the ground at any time.
The old man's whole body was skinny, as if a layer of loose skin was directly wrapped around the bones, which looked creepy and chilled his backbone.
But the more such people are, the more unfathomable their cultivation becomes!
Chu Nan suppressed the suspicion in his heart, didn't dare to hold it up, gave a salute and nodded: "That's right, it's the junior who wants to sell the Quenching Pill." What advice do you have?"
"Hmm......" The old man untied the belt of the black robe, took off the black robe and put it on his arm, nodded and asked, "Can you let the old man take a look?"
"This," Chu Nan frowned, a little hesitant.
Naturally, he didn't want to take it out so easily, who knows what the old man was thinking.
But the old man had read countless people, so he naturally saw through Chu Nan's thoughts at a glance, and immediately smiled slightly, the loose skin on his face was pulled, and the folds were squeezed to both sides.
"To tell you the truth, the old man is quite interested in your quenching pill, can you let the old man take a look at one or two, if it is appropriate. How about the old man trade with you with spirit stones?"
Chu Nan raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart: If this person wants to buy it, it will solve his predicament.
But-
This old man's cultivation is unfathomable, and the Quenching Pill should have no effect on him, what is the use of him buying this Quenching Pill?
But Chu Nan immediately thought about it, maybe this old man bought it for his beloved disciple.
In any case, this old man's cultivation is profound, and Chu Nan even doubts that he can be crushed to death like an ant if he can't do more than two moves in his hands.
Such people cannot be easily offended.
Now that he has taken out the Quenching Pill, it doesn't matter if he wants to see it, let him take a look.
Chu Nan made up his mind, spread his hand in front of the old man, revealing the purple quenching pill in his palm, and said respectfully with a smile: "Senior, please take a look." ”
The old man took the Quenching Pill and carefully identified it, and Chu Nan took the initiative to explain the wonderful use of the Quenching Pill: "This Quenching Pill can nourish the tendons and veins and refine the veins of the whole body. As you know, when you reach a certain level, the importance of the muscles and veins far exceeds the strength. This must not be too much for the younger generations to talk about. ”
The old man's cloudy eyes kept turning, his gaze looked at the Quenching Pill, and after listening to Chu Nan's words, the chaotic eyes finally shot out a fine light.
The old man nodded: "Well, little brother, you have a point. But how do I know that your elixir really has the wonderful use you say?"
"This ......" Chu Nan really didn't take into account this for the time being, and he was a little difficult for a while.
Although the effect of this quenching pill is subtle, how can it be believed by others?
The corners of the old man's mouth hooked up at this moment, and he looked at Chu Nan and said: "The old man has a way, it's better like this, the old man will take the quenching pill, if it's really like what you said, little brother." Then the old man will give you the spirit stone again, if you can't quench the muscles and veins, the old man will also pay you the spirit stone according to the general price of the second-grade pill......?
Chu Nan's eyes lit up, this is a good way. I was about to agree, but when I heard the old man's words, I couldn't help but ask, "Just what?"
"It's just that the old man bought the pill for his apprentice, and the old man couldn't spit it out after taking it, I don't know how many of these quenching pills do you have, little brother?" the old man asked seemingly unintentionally, but the corner of his eyes was locked on Chu Nan.
Sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy, and Chu Nan was stumped at once.
Chu Nan didn't want to attract attention, so he only planned to sell one and leave the other for Xiao Xin.
But if you don't take it out, I'm afraid that the old man won't buy it, and if he leaves, Chu Nan's plan will be ruined.
Chu Nan's eyes flickered, in order to facilitate this deal, he thought about it and made a decision, he gritted his teeth and took out a quenching pill from the small box, and said:
"To tell the truth, these two quenching pills were originally given to the juniors by the junior master, in case they encountered a bottleneck. It's just that the juniors are currently a little embarrassed at hand, and they want to consign the quenching pill as a last resort, but if you want two of them, the juniors will be adults. However, it's just that the price ......"
Listening to Chu Nan's words, the old man smiled silently, making people confused whether he believed Chu Nan's words or not.
"Don't worry, little brother, the old man may not take advantage of a junior?"
"Then thank you seniors. Chu Nan shook again.
The old man didn't say much, and when he subdued the Quenching Pill in the center of the main hall, Chu Nan was surprised for a while.
No matter what kind of elixir, after taking it, there will be a vision, ranging from convulsions all over the body to coma.
Isn't this old man afraid of making a fool of himself in public?
But then Chu Nan knew that he was very wrong, after the old man took it, he only closed his eyes slightly, as if the old monk was in a state of flux, he opened his eyes again after half a pillar of incense, and he had completely absorbed the medicinal effect, and no abnormalities had occurred.
He actually relied on his profound cultivation to suppress the reaction of the medicinal effect!
What a terrifying cultivation this must be!
This old man's status in Chu Nan's heart has risen sharply, and he has become more and more jealous in his heart.
Chu Nan was even wondering if it was the right choice for him to sell the Quenching Pill.
Although ordinary powerful cultivators may not be able to look down on this second-grade elixir, if there is a case, then how should they end up?
In an instant, the old man opened his eyes, smiled with relief, nodded twice, and the wrinkles on his face turned into a smile: "Not bad, it does have the miraculous effect of refining muscles and veins." Little brother, you Quenching Pill, you can be called the best in the second-grade pill!"
His smile is very kind, and people can't help but feel good, and he looks more like a kind elder.
"Thanks to the praise of the seniors, I can't hide that this quenching pill was refined by the junior master and given to himself. The younger generation has not tried this drug yet. Chu Nan replied again and again, pushing everything on Yi Yuntian.
The old man thought for a while, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "Dare to ask where the little brother's mentorship is?"
"This ......" Chu Nan's face was a little strange, and said: "When the junior descended the mountain, the master explained to me that I should not say his name at will. So senior, sorry. ”
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, the old man was not reluctant, and he didn't say more, took out six second-grade spirit stones from his arms, and handed them to Chu Nan: "Your second-grade pill is superior, and the old man doesn't take advantage of you." You will be paid twice as much as the ordinary second-grade pill. You click and see. ”
Chu Nan was very pleasantly surprised in his heart, originally he thought that it would be very good to sell three hundred spirit stones for two pills. Unexpectedly, this old man made a generous move, and he actually came up with six second-grade spirit stones, that is, six hundred and one-grade spirit stones!
In this way, I completely broke the embarrassing realm and came back to life!
"Thank you, senior!" Chu Nan was grateful and no longer hesitated, handed over the remaining Quenching Pill to him, and thanked him again and again after taking the six second-grade spirit stones.
After the transaction was completed, the old man did not answer his words, nodded slightly, turned around and walked into the crowd, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
After seeing the old man leave, Chu Nan quickly lowered his head and stepped over the threshold and walked out of the auction house.
Not long after Chu Nan left, in the empty corner of the main hall, the space was distorted again, and finally a black figure appeared out of thin air, which was the old man who traded with Chu Nan.
At this moment, there was no trace of turbidity in his eyes, and a quenching pill appeared when he flipped it in his hand.
He stared at the Quenching Pill's gaze motionless, showing thought from time to time.
After a while, the old man's gaze turned to the direction Chu Nan had left, and from time to time he swept past the Dao Dao Essence.
The cyan flame suddenly rose in the palm of his hand, instantly devouring and enveloping the Quenching Pill. After the flame was extinguished, the Quenching Pill had already turned into a pile of black ash.
The old man shook his hand and waved away the black ash in his hand, and his kind smile no longer existed, but with a burst of anger, he said to himself: "Old thing, I didn't expect you to be alive!"
It's just that Chu Nan didn't know anything about all this. I don't know how much trouble I will cause for myself in the future with this move!
At this moment, Chu Nan was on the street, holding six second-grade spirit stones in his hands, and his confidence was a little stronger.
He didn't go back to Naxian Pavilion directly, but went to Yuyang City to purchase the materials needed to refine the Quenching Pill.
This time, Chu Nan consumed a second-grade spirit stone to buy a small ring.
This kind of ring is necessary for every strong person in the innate realm, and the only use is to hold a series of inconvenient and easy-to-carry things such as materials and spiritual weapons.
The inner storage space of the small Na ring is only four square meters.
But for the current Chu Nan, it is still more than enough.
In addition to this, Chu Nan purchased enough materials to refine the Tempering Pill six hundred times, filling the entire Na Ring to the brim.
After doing all this, Chu Nan counted the spirit stones, and in one afternoon, there was only one of the six second-grade spirit stones left.
"What a loser. Chu Nan shook his head with a wry smile and put the ring on his fingers.
But it doesn't matter, with six hundred materials, you can refine more Quenching Pills.
Of course, after these quenching pills were refined, Chu Nan was ready to keep himself and Xiao Xin for most of them, except for a small number of consignments.
In addition to these, Chu Nan bought some Condensing Pills, Huiyuan Pills, etc., in order to enter the Nine Hells Mountain and began to prepare.
When he returned to the fairy cave, night was about to fall, and Chu Nan landed at the entrance of the fairy cave, thinking: This little girl shouldn't have gotten up yet.
When I think about it, Xiao Xin is confused, coiled on the bed like an octopus, and sleeps like a kitten. Chu Nan's heart was warm.
This feeling is as if the wife of the family is waiting for him.
Suddenly-
Xiao Xin screamed loudly in horror from inside the immortal cave, as if she was in great trouble!
Oops, something happened!
