Ultimate Village Doctor-Chapter 709 - 771 Cutting in Halfway
Chapter 709: Chapter 771: Cutting in Halfway Chapter 709: Chapter 771: Cutting in Halfway Chapter 771
Although the crowd was somewhat disappointed upon hearing the news, the opportunity to purchase elixir pills from Elder Yinding of Medicine King Valley was a rare occasion, so everyone was staring intently at the Elder of Medicine King Valley.
Soon enough, Elder Yinding, accompanied by a middle-aged martial artist, arrived at the very center of the area.
There was an empty stall there.
It seemed to have been prepared especially for him.
The Elder of Medicine King Valley took a seat.
Xiaoshan was seeing another alchemist for the first time and felt a twinge of interest.
The pills from the stalls he had just browsed couldn’t really even be called elixir pills— they were more like herbal pellets.
...
Even the pills in the bustling Canghai Medicine Pavilion were nothing remarkable; he did not see a single Spirit Pill they advertised.
This Elder of Medicine King Valley was making quite an entrance.
Xiaoshan wondered if he truly had any real skills.
After all, he would be facing him in this afternoon’s competition.
As soon as the Elder of Medicine King Valley seated himself, the crowd surged towards his stall, particularly those who had been in front of the other medicine stalls, all of whom had now left.
This caused those vendors to grind their teeth in frustration and annoyance.
Yet, these medicine factions knew that they couldn’t compare with Medicine King Valley, not to mention that this time the visitor was none other than Elder Yinding of Medicine King Valley.
In the entire Southwest Five Provinces and Cities, the only faction that could rival Medicine King Valley was Tianyi Sect.
The Elder of Medicine King Valley sat there with a proud demeanor, and took several jade vials from his robes, saying, “These are a few elixir pills I have concocted, with one pill in each jade vial.
First and foremost, I must clarify, I do not accept money.
If you want my elixir pills, you must offer something that interests me; whether it’s top-quality aged medicinal materials or rare treasures of heaven and earth, as long as it catches my eye, the elixir pill is yours.”
The crowd became restless.
Many people showed signs of disappointment on their faces.
Top-quality aged medicinal materials and rare treasures were not so easily obtained; even if they had some, most people had used them or didn’t bring them.
However, there were also many people whose faces lit up with joy.
Within the vast Hidden Sects, there were always people with fortuitous encounters.
Among the several hundred martial artists present, there were more than a few who possessed such treasures.
Elder Yinding of Medicine King Valley opened one of the jade vials and poured out a green elixir pill, saying, “This is a Three-Yuan Pill, which quickly restores Inner Strength.
In combat, possessing this pill means you effectively have double the strength of other people.
It also provides a slight aid in breaking through to new realms.”
As soon as these words fell, many martial artists started shouting immediately.
“I want it, Grandmaster!
I have an eighty-year Red Jade Ganoderma here with me!”
“Grandmaster, I have a strand of Icy Silkworm Silk, may I exchange it for this pill?”
“Grandmaster, I have a Hundred-Year-Old Silver Snake’s Gallbladder.”
The martial artists began to produce all sorts of heavenly and earthly treasures, vying for the Three-Yuan Pill.
Xiaoshan’s eyes flickered with a hint of gold as he observed the Three-Yuan Pill from afar.
After a moment, he shook his head in slight disappointment—the so-called Three-Yuan Pill was merely adequate.
Although its concoction technique was somewhat refined, it still fell far short of a true Spirit Pill.
Eventually, Elder Yinding chose the Hundred-Year-Old Silver Snake’s Gallbladder, and the martial artist who offered it accepted the Three-Yuan Pill from the Elder’s hand, overjoyed.
After the trade.
Elder Yinding took out the second jade vial, opened it, and poured out a black pill, saying, “This is a Bone-Tempering Pill; upon taking it, it temperes the muscles and bones and benefits martial artists who focus on physical cultivation immensely.”
Several physically-focused martial artists immediately leaped forward to compete for it.
In the end, it was exchanged with a Monk from Tianlong Temple for a Bodhi Heavenly Bead.
Elder Yinding produced the third jade vial and poured out a red pill, saying indifferently, “This is a Blood Yuan Pill, specifically for treating severe blood and internal energy deficiencies.
If someone’s vital essence has been significantly depleted, taking this pill will replenish their foundation.”
This Elixir Pill came out, and the struggle for it became even more intense.
The previous Three-Yuan Pill and the Bone-Tempering Pill, one was a one-time Elixir Pill for restoring Inner Strength, and the other was exclusive to horizontal training of Martial Artists.
They had significant limitations.
But the Blood Yuan Pill was needed by many more people.
In the Hidden Sects, where fighting was common, many would resort to Secret Techniques at life-and-death moments, consuming vital blood and forcing out potential—tactics that killed a thousand enemies but harmed oneself eight hundred times in return.
Once used, those who had severely depleted their vitality and blood had their hopes of advancement cut off.
Therefore, many would go to great lengths to replenish the blood they had lost.
Even without a loss of vital blood, having such an Elixir Pill on hand was very good, as no one knew when it might be needed.
For a moment, the competition was fierce.
Many who had been waiting and watching also brought out treasures, and several Hundred-Year-Old Medicines appeared, including a Yellow Dragon Grass that was nearly two hundred years old.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
Even Long Xiaoshan was quite tempted.
However, this Yellow Dragon Grass had lost its vitality and there was no possibility of cultivating it anew, so even at two hundred years, its effect on him now was minimal, far inferior to the medicinal plants he cultivated himself.
The Elder of Medicine King Valley’s gaze roamed from side to side until it fell upon that Yellow Dragon Grass.
Just as he was about to speak.
“Wait!”
A middle-aged man, who had earlier produced a Hundred-Year-Old Ginseng, cried out, pulling out a stone flecked with specks of silver from his chest and said weakly, “Grandmaster, what if I add this stone to the deal for your Blood Yuan Pill!”
The middle-aged man was pale and obviously spoke with insufficient breath.
Huh!
The Elder of Medicine King Valley fixed his eyes upon that stone, feeling that it had a very special quality, as if it could suck in a person’s spirit.
But even he did not recognize the stone, so he asked, “What kind of stone is this?”
The pale middle-aged man shook his head, somewhat nervously saying, “I’m not very sure myself, but this stone is extraordinary, definitely not common.
Please, Grandmaster, trade the Blood Yuan Pill for it.”
Nobody knew that when the middle-aged man produced the stone just now, Long Xiaoshan’s eyes had suddenly shrunk sharply, “Void Nether Stone!”
His heart started pounding violently.
While others did not recognize it,
He identified it at first glance.
This was a Void Nether Stone, a material for making Spatial Treasures, those specks of silver, and its trait of seemingly absorbing a person’s spirit were characteristics of Void Nether Stone.
In the Blood Buddha’s legacy, it was specifically listed.
The Space Ring on his hand was refined from Void Nether Stone, and this piece was as big as the palm of a hand.
This was truly a spiritual material.
A Void Nether Stone of such size was invaluable.
Seeing that the Elder of Medicine King Valley clearly had not identified it, otherwise he would have acted much earlier.
At that moment, where would he have the slightest hesitation?
He quickly made his way through the crowd, saying, “Wait, you want a Blood Yuan Pill, I have one too, and I’ll take this stone.”
The Elder of Medicine King Valley’s face darkened.
Though he did not recognize the stone, the feeling it gave him was peculiar, and it should not be an ordinary object.
However, he was hesitant because he did not know if it would be useful to trade for it, especially since there was a nearly two hundred years old Yellow Dragon Grass available.
So he hesitated.
But now, someone dared to cut in and upset his plan.
He wanted to see just who was that bold.
