For Shopkeeper Wang, there is certainly some truth to what he said. After all, a top-level elixir represents a considerable source of wealth. If not necessary, who would be willing to sell the recipe for a top-level elixir
But Shennongtang is not a merchant in the pure sense. It is indeed only at Shennongtang that you are most likely to buy top-level elixir recipes.
From what Shopkeeper Wang said, Kong Ming probably meant that he could buy the elixir recipe here, so he cupped his hands towards Shopkeeper Wang and said, "Fellow Daoist Wang, if your shop really has a recipe for top-level elixirs, , then no matter how many kinds there are, Kong is willing to buy them.”
Shopkeeper Wang nodded and said: "Fellow Daoist Kong wants to reach the realm of alchemy master. Wang can understand this feeling. However, due to his responsibilities and authority, there are only three kinds of elixir prescriptions that Wang can sell to the outside world. Moreover, the purchase conditions for each type of elixir are somewhat different.”
Kong Ming was stunned after hearing this and asked: "If I want to buy the top-level elixir recipe, are there any conditions attached?"
Shopkeeper Wang looked at Kong Ming and smiled, saying: "Of course! It seems that Fellow Daoist Kong doesn't have much contact with his colleagues in the elixir world, right? Everyone knows how precious top-level elixirs are. If not For some special reasons, no one wants to spread the word. Even if some prescriptions are spread, they cannot be purchased with just Yuan Jing. Otherwise, wouldn’t the prescriptions for top-level pills become popular? It’s so rare.”
Kong Ming had to admit that there was some truth to what shopkeeper Wang said, so he nodded and said, "In that case, I would like to ask fellow Taoist Wang for advice."
Shopkeeper Wang did not sell out to Kong Ming, and explained directly to Kong Ming: "There are only three top-level elixir prescriptions that our Shennongtang can sell to the outside world. Among them, the fake death elixir with the lowest value only costs 100,000 yuan crystals." You can buy the elixir. I wonder if you have heard of the name of this pseudo-death elixir, Fellow Daoist Kong? Although this elixir is called a top-level elixir, it is completely useless for cultivation. The only effect is to take this elixir. After planting the elixir, you can enter a state of suspended animation for half an hour. Outsiders will regard you as a dead person, but your own perception and magical powers are there. If it were not for this special effect, the suspended animation elixir would not It is one of the top elixirs. Unfortunately, although this fake death elixir has strange effects, its uses are extremely limited and has no commercial value. Therefore, purchasing the fake death elixir recipe is the easiest, and only requires 100,000 yuan crystals. .”
After hearing this, Kong Ming smiled slightly and said: "So, this fake death pill is almost a pill recipe specially used to attack the great master of alchemy? Then Kong Mou naturally asked to buy one."
Shopkeeper Wang smiled at Kong Ming after hearing this, because Kong Ming's words were true. Although this fake death pill is not widely used, almost all alchemy masters can refine it, because they use this fake death pill as a powerful impact weapon. One of the ten stepping stones to the master realm. And what does the price of 100,000 yuan crystals mean to an alchemist who plans to hit the realm of alchemy master
Kong Ming's willingness to buy the fake death elixir was naturally expected by Shopkeeper Wang, so he then introduced to Kong Ming: "Fellow Daoist Kong, the second top-level elixir that our Shennong Hall can sell to the outside world belongs to us. It is unique to Shennongtang. It is called Shennong Baicao Dan. It is extremely versatile and can relieve all negative conditions of practitioners. Whether they are poisoned, cursed, mentally disturbed, or even obsessed, Shennong Baicao Dan can be used to treat them. Or relieve symptoms. However, if you want to obtain the formula of Shennong Baicao Dan, you need to make an oath of heaven to ensure that all the materials for refining this elixir must be purchased at our Shennong Hall. If you want to buy and sell the elixir after the elixir is completed, It can only be performed in the Shennong Hall. Moreover, this recipe cannot be passed on to others without the permission of the Shennong Hall."
Since Shennong Baicao Dan is a formula developed by Shennongtang, it is natural to stipulate some terms that can only be traded with Shennongtang, and that it cannot be spread to outsiders. You only need to abide by the terms to get this formula, and you don’t even need to pay extra. Even if it is just a Yuan Jing, it can be seen that Shennongtang is quite sincere.
So Kong Ming nodded to Shopkeeper Wang and said: "In a sense, the prescription of top-level elixirs is a priceless treasure. If you agree to these conditions, you can get the prescription of Shenlong Baicao Dan. Speaking of which, Kong Ming How can you say no if you take advantage? Kong also wants this prescription!"
Shopkeeper Wang smiled and nodded, and said: "Fellow Daoist Kong, the first two prescriptions are easy to talk about, but when it comes to the third prescription, there are some troubles. In other words, what kind of prescription you can get depends on you. "
After hearing this, Kong Ming frowned slightly and asked, "Fellow Daoist Wang, what do you mean by this?"
Shopkeeper Wang explained: "Fellow Daoist Kong wants to get the third elixir recipe from our Shennong Hall. There is only one condition, and that is to exchange the recipe for another top-level elixir! As long as Taoist friend Kong can provide us with one of the elixir recipes from Shennong Hall, If you don’t have the top-level elixir recipe, you can exchange it for any top-level elixir recipe from our Shenlong Hall. One elixir recipe is exchanged for another, it’s a fair transaction without any other strings attached.”
Shopkeeper Wang said it as if it was fair, but Kong Ming said with a wry smile: "It seems fair to exchange the elixir recipe for the elixir recipe, but this rule is really difficult for Kong. Kong has not yet been able to challenge the great master of alchemy. At this level, how many elixir recipes can you hold in your hands? And for a business as big as yours, Shennongtang, the collection of top-level elixir recipes is of course extremely complete. If you want to find a recipe that even your Shennongtang doesn’t have, then How difficult is it? For Kong, this opportunity is almost non-existent."
Shopkeeper Wang laughed and said: "Although I say that, but think about it from another angle, as long as you provide a prescription that our Shennong Hall does not have, there are countless top-level prescriptions for you to choose from. Isn't this an opportunity?"
After hearing this, Kong Ming could only nod his head speechlessly, because Shennongtang's offer of such conditions could be said to be an upright conspiracy. It was clear that he wanted to collect various top-level elixir prescriptions. As long as you are interested in a certain elixir recipe owned by Shennongtang, you will try every means to obtain an elixir recipe that Shennongtang does not have in exchange. If this continues, the number of top-level elixir recipes concentrated in the hands of Shennongtang will be One can imagine.
Moreover, as Shennongtang has more and more top-level elixir recipes, a virtuous cycle can be formed. Anyone who has an imaginable elixir recipe will find a way to trade with Shennongtang. I wonder if the reason why Emperor Shennong, the real figure behind Shennong Hall, was able to become a master-level alchemist is related to this
Kong Ming doesn't care why Shennongtang collects so many top-level elixirs. What he cares about is whether he can get more elixirs. But for Kong Ming now, the only two pills he can trade are Miaohundan and Guixindan.
Kong Ming doesn’t want the prescription of the Guixin Pill to be exposed, but the Miaohun Pill is King Miaodan’s famous elixir. It’s been so many years now. Who knows if he has done any transactions with Shennongtang? If Shennong Hall already has the recipe for Miaohun Dan, then Kong Ming will not be able to exchange it for the recipe at Shenlong Hall in a short period of time.
In the end, Kong Ming could only sigh and tentatively said: "Kong only has a prescription for Miaohun Dan in his hand, which is of some value. I wonder if this prescription can be exchanged with Guitang?"
Shopkeeper Wang showed a hint of joy on his face and said: "The recipe for the Miaohun Pill? Of course it can be exchanged. This Miaohun Pill is the famous work of Miaodan King, and Miaodan King is the exclusive enshrinement of Danxiang Pavilion." , the elixirs it refines have always been sold only in Danxiang Pavilion, and have never been traded with our Shennong Hall. It seems that it was a chance for Fellow Daoist Kong to obtain the recipe for Miaohun Dan."
Kong Ming couldn't help but feel happy after hearing this, because he really didn't expect that the prescription of Miaohun Dan was something that Shennongtang didn't have. However, from what Shopkeeper Wang said, there was commercial competition between Shennongtang and Danxiang Pavilion, which was why the recipe for Miaohundan never fell into the hands of Shennongtang.
The formula for Miaohun Dan in Kong Ming's hand was a gift from King Miaodan. Although Kong Ming was considered a life-saving benefactor to King Miaodan, exchanging the formula for Miaohundan with Shennongtang was not considered a violation of King Miaodan. What about your wishes? From this perspective, Kong Ming really has some concerns.
Shopkeeper Wang seemed to know what Kong Ming was hesitating about, and immediately explained to Kong Ming: "Fellow Kong Ming, for any elixir exchanged with our Shennong Hall, both parties will also make an oath of heaven and do not engage in commercial transactions with outsiders. If you really want to If there is a transaction, it is only between you and me. Therefore, although our Shennongtang has collected many top-level elixir prescriptions, it has never affected the outside elixir market. Otherwise, we, Shennongtang, would have long been the target of public criticism. , was attacked by a group."
After Shopkeeper Wang's explanation, Kong Ming finally felt relieved. After all, he was bound by the oath of heaven, and he was not afraid that Shopkeeper Wang was lying. Moreover, the prescription of Miaohun Dan can be exchanged with Shennongtang for the prescription of any top-level elixir, which is also quite tempting for Kong Ming.
So Kong Ming nodded to Shopkeeper Wang and said: "Since the prescriptions of Miaohun Dan can be exchanged, Kong is lucky. Well, according to what Wang Daoyou said, the three top-level prescriptions that Shennongtang can provide, Kong wants it all!"
