  The green-clad young servant who blocked Mo Qingchen's path had a cultivation of five layers of refining Qi. Book lovers also like to read:

  It's no wonder that Yao Guangpai's pharmacy is so renowned, even a small servant has such attainments. Bookworms also like to read:

  Mo Qingchen was shocked in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm and expressionless as he looked away.

  That young man probably saw Mo Qingchen's young age and said kindly, "Little girl, the second floor can only be accessed by seniors who have passed the foundation period."

  Mo Qingchen could understand this rule. The elixirs on the second floor must be even more precious, not something that a Qi Refining stage cultivator like himself could afford. With so many cultivators in Tianyao City, if anyone could go up and just wander around without buying anything, it would be enough to make these shops busy for nothing.

  "This senior brother, my grandfather is a foundation-building cultivator. He's been in closed-door meditation recently and has ordered me to find a certain type of elixir. If your esteemed shop has it, he'll come over to buy it as soon as he comes out." Mo Qingchen said.

  The young servant in green hesitated for a moment.

  Mo Qingchen took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Senior brother, I just want to go up and take a look. Whether there is or not, I will leave immediately."

  Mo Qingchen said as he naturally pulled up Xiao Shun's sleeve to beg, but subtly slipped a piece of Ling Stone into Xiao Shun's sleeve.

  The young servant was taken aback for a moment, one hand pressing down on his sleeve, and immediately reacted by saying: "Alright, but you must come down quickly, otherwise if you bump into the seniors of the foundation period or are seen by our master, it will be hard to explain."

  "Hey, don't worry, brother. I won't cause you any trouble." Mo Qingchen smiled sweetly and quickly climbed up the wooden ladder.

  The upstairs was another scene, unlike the first floor which had countless spiritual medicines, spiritual grasses and elixirs densely arranged. Instead, every half zhang (a unit of length) there was a jade platform, on top of which were either placed jade boxes or old yellow wooden chests, or directly held by jade plates filled with spiritual medicine. Each small jade platform had an array set up, you could observe closely but if you wanted to touch it, the consequences would be yours to bear.

  Inside, more than a dozen foundation-building monks stood scattered about. Upon hearing the commotion, some of them glanced lazily in Mo Qingchu's direction, while most people didn't react at all.

  As Mo Qingchen guessed, bookworms also like to read:. This second floor is said to be only for foundation-building cultivators, but there are still a few Qi-refining cultivators. Rules are dead, people are alive. It's not surprising at all.

  It's just that those few Qi-refining stage cultivators didn't dare to compete with the Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. Whenever a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator stopped to watch from in front of the jade platform, they would tactfully retreat to a distance.

  For the first time, Mo Qingchen saw so many foundation-building monks, and he naturally felt a lot of pressure. He carefully spent some time looking at over a hundred jade pedestals, but still didn't see any sign of the Lihuo Dan.

  Do I still need to go up another floor and take a look? Looking at the wooden ladder going up. Mo Qingchu thought to herself.

  There is no young servant in blue beside the wooden ladder. In fact, there are no servants to be seen on the entire second floor. It's unknown how those buyers operate when they want to make a transaction.

  Mo Qingchen didn't have the energy to care about these things, even if she found out about Ligu Dan. At this moment, it was still unaffordable, but just wanted to confirm whether there was one here, so that she could buy it in the future. No need to waste any more effort.

  Mo Qingchen tentatively took a step up the stairs, but it was as if she had run into an invisible wall and bounced back.

  Mo Qingchen's heart was clear and he looked at the three buildings. It seemed that if one didn't cultivate to a certain level, they definitely wouldn't be able to go up.

  Didn't find Lidan, Mo Qingchen left Pujitang in disappointment.

  Puji Hall is already the largest and most complete pharmacy in Tianyao City, but there is no sign of Ligu Dan here. Is it really as Grandfather said that Ligu Dan is hard to find even with a lot of money?

  It seems that even if Pujitang has Ligu Dan, it's probably on the third floor, which is definitely not something a minor repairman like her can access.

  Sometimes in the Cultivation Realm, even if you have spirit stones, without a certain level of cultivation status, you can't buy those really good things, and you don't even have the qualifications to take a look.

  Mo Qingchen walked along the road, thinking about Li Gudan's affairs. Book lovers also like to read:

  The materials for refining the Lí Gù Dān include over a dozen types, among which one main ingredient is Thousand-Year Purple Jade Mushroom and another auxiliary ingredient is Snow Congealing Flower. Although only a tiny amount is used, it must be at least a thousand years old. The preciousness of the Lí Gù Dān lies in these two spiritual medicines being extremely rare after a thousand years, as for other materials, they are ordinary and do not require worry.

  With one's own gourd, if used to water the spiritual grass, counting as one year per day, then wanting to obtain the thousand-year Purple Jade Mushroom and Snow Condensing Flower would take less than three years.

  Three years... three years is enough time for me to enter the middle stage of Qi refining, right?

  Grandfather said that the heavenly fate of an alchemist is very important, but similarly, experience in alchemy is even more crucial. Alchemical experience can be said to be piled up with a large amount of spiritual stones, and it's precisely because of this that, apart from sects and good families, it's extremely difficult for a great alchemist to emerge.

  Even Grandfather Mo, the only alchemist in the Mo family, had all the spiritual herbs collected by the family supplied to him for pill refinement, yet he was still just an ordinary alchemist who was familiar with and grasped only a few common pills. This was because small families like theirs simply didn't have that many precious spiritual herbs for him to refine.

  But with the magical gourd, I can buy seeds of spiritual herbs and medicines at a very low price, or go to the deep mountains and forests to find some spiritual medicines that are not noticed by anyone. At that time, there will be a lot of spiritual medicines available for refining pills, and I won't worry about my pill-refining skills being unable to improve.

  At that time, I will personally refine a furnace of Lihuo Dan for Grandfather!

  Mo Qingchen thought about these things and had a goal in mind, his expression gradually calming down.

  "Little sister, little sister." From a distance, Xia saw Mo Qingchen walking on the street with a distracted expression, lost in thought.

  Mo Qing dust wrinkled his nose, looking at the enlarged smile of the boy in front of him, his hand kept shaking in front of her.

  "What are you thinking about?" asked Xiaoxia, seeing Mo Qingchen remain silent.

  Mo Qingchen pulled at the corner of his mouth: "Little Xia Ge, I just came out for a stroll, didn't think much."

  Xia Xia patted Mo Qingchen's shoulder and said, "Right, I haven't seen you for many days. What have you been up to these days? Why didn't you even sell wine?"

  Although the two had known each other for a long time, Mo Qingchen felt that casually inquiring about other cultivators' affairs was somewhat impolite. Yet, Xiao Xia seemed to make it feel like the most natural thing to do, as if he wouldn't let anyone think it was out of place.

  "I've been cultivating all these days, I can't delay my cultivation just to sell wine." Mo Qingchen said matter-of-factly.

  No matter what, Grandfather's injury cannot be known to a third person. If others were to find out that the two of them were only slightly injured, who knows what evil thoughts might arise.

  Xiaoxia smiled and said, "No wonder, but you still have to set up your wine stall. Otherwise, it would be a pity. I heard Mr. Han say that many people have come to ask when you will sell wine these days. One person even came several times."

  "That's natural. I'll go set up a stall tomorrow." Mo Qingchen replied.

  She had originally wanted to close down the wine stall, but thinking twice about it, she realized that even if they just made use of the gourd a little, they could still earn some spirit stones. After all, there was no business as safe as selling wine. Moreover, the market in the town was bustling with people coming and going, making it the most informed place for news. Who knows what kind of information might be helpful to the two of them right now? Furthermore, cultivation wasn't just about bitter practice; when the time came and their cultivation level increased but their mental state couldn't keep up, that would be even more disastrous.

  "Little sister, you rarely come out. Why not go for a stroll with me?" Xia heard that Mo Qingchen was going to set up a stall the next day and seemed quite happy, asking with a smile.

  Missing her grandfather, Mo Qingchen naturally didn't have the mind to wander around and said: "There's nothing good to wander about, even if you run into something you like, you can't afford it."

  Xia Xia helplessly said: "Little girl, you're so young, why are you acting like an old lady? Even if you don't buy anything, it's good to broaden your horizons and gain some experience. Let's go! Today, there are bargains at the Qigui Pavilion!"

  "What's so special about Qí Bǎo Gé?" Mo Qingchen let Xiaoxia push him forward, and the other book friends looked on normally.

  "Yes, have you not been to the Qiguan Pavilion? Inside are all sorts of strange and unusual things. Not everything is expensive enough to scare people to death, who knows, there might be something that catches your eye, and it's very cheap too. The Qiguan Pavilion takes out some items every year for low-priced processing, and today just so happens to be the first day." Xiaoxia said non-stop.

  When he said that, Mo Qingchen really came up with interest and nodded: "Then let's go take a look."

  Mo Qingchen followed Xiao Xia and turned around until they reached the entrance of Qibao Pavilion.

  "There aren't many people inside." Mo Qingchen peeked inside.

  Xiaoxia gave a mysterious smile and pulled Mo Qingchen's hand saying: "Follow me."

  The two of them entered through the side door of Qibao Pavilion, which was a delicate courtyard surrounded by walls that resembled jade but were not actually made of it. The sunlight made the walls appear radiant and colorful.

  Mo Qingchen curiously looked around and his gaze stopped at a certain place on the green wall.

  As expected, Xiaoxia pulled her over there, and with a slight movement of her fingers, she cast a spell, and a door appeared.

  Jian Mo Qing's face didn't show any particular surprise, Xiao Xia felt a little disappointed and let out a sigh, pulling her along as she stepped inside.

  This sudden change left Mo Qing dust truly astonished, only to see that the two were in a vast venue, with countless monks inside, all quietly searching for their own desired items, rarely speaking loudly, and vastly different from the mortal world.

  This Qibao Pavilion looks ordinary from the outside, but how can it have such a large space inside? It's as if some immortal has used their magical skills.

  Mo Qingchen looked around and found that the venue was still divided into several areas according to their functions, including the Talisman Arena, Dan Medicine Arena, Array Arena, Material Arena, and so on.

  Naturally, Mo Qingchen took the lead and walked towards the Dan Medicine Field, Xiao Xia didn't say much and followed along.

  After a circle, I found that there are indeed many good things, and the prices are cheaper than those of Pujidang. However, there is no Ligu Dan that Mo Qingchen has been dreaming of. Book lovers also like to read:

  Some elixirs are quite good, but Mo Qingchen currently has limited Ling Stones and doesn't dare to use them lightly thinking about future plans.

  Jianmo Qingchen walked out empty-handed, and Xia Xia asked: "Little sister, why didn't you buy anything?"

  Mo Qingchen smiled and said: "Didn't I tell you, no spiritual stone, I just came to broaden my horizons."

  Xia Xia almost rolled her eyes, what was she doing at the Dan medicine field, it should be the material field, maybe there's something worth seeing.

  He was just about to suggest going to the material yard to take a look when Mo Qingchen said, "What's over there? Why isn't it marked?"

  Xia Xia glanced over and said: "Some things are hard to categorize, so they're all just put there."

  Mo Qingchen walked over and casually glanced at the various items on display. There were indeed many names, most of which she had never even heard of.

  Mo Qingchen stopped at a place and looked around for half a day before saying: "These... are all storage rooms?"

  "That's right."

  "What's with that weird look? I always thought it was just storage bags, storage bangles and storage rings." Mo Qingchen asked.

  "So you should take a look around more often and not always stay at home practicing. What do you think this is?"

  Mo Qingchen looked at the small box that Xiaoxia pointed to, which was about the size of a palm, rectangular in shape. After not being able to figure it out for half a month, he shook his head.

  "Medicine Garden." Xia said proudly.

  "What did you say?" Mo Qingchen suddenly grasped Xiaxia's hand tightly.
