Chapter 350 Blood Scale Grass
Xiao Lin, who knew all this, naturally started from the stalls.
At this moment, Xiao Lin had already transformed into a black-faced young man of 27 or 28 years old, and his cultivation was deliberately suppressed to the seventh level of Qi Refining by him. This realm was more in line with the atmosphere here.
Most of the materials sold in these stalls were low-level monster materials and metal materials, such as the two-legged anaconda and fire armored beast that Xiao Lin had killed before, and the materials on their bodies could be seen everywhere here.
Even the materials on many monsters whose names Xiao Lin had never heard of were quite large in number, which made Xiao Lin sigh in his heart. This place of cultivation was like the fields in his hometown when he was a child, some fertile and some barren.
The harvest of fertile land in a year is very considerable, while barren land may even have no harvest, and the difference between them is very large.
Compared with the Ice and Fire Fairy City adjacent to the Black Sea and the Tianhan Mountains, the several fairy cities in the Tianlu Mountains can be described as wild land.
If Binghuo Xiancheng is the landlord, then the several Xianchengs where the five major sects are located are simply beggars.
Xiao Lin wandered around the stalls with great interest. Soon, several hours passed. Although Xiao Lin did not find any treasures, he also collected many auxiliary spiritual medicines for refining the Han Dan and Qu Hua Dan.
There were also several very rare spiritual medicines. Although they were all seedlings of several years old, they were enough to surprise Xiao Lin.
After half a day's work, he actually collected 30% to 40% of the auxiliary spiritual medicines for the Han Dan, and the Qu Hua Dan was less, about 10% to 20%.
Even so, Xiao Lin was greatly impressed that this trip was worthwhile.
The only thing that made Xiao Lin a little regretful was that he did not see the Ji Yin grass. At these stalls, although the stall owners were all low-level casual cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, they might not know some precious metal materials, but for spiritual medicines, as long as they were not stupid, they could probably judge the level.
Spiritual medicines are different from those metal materials. They may look ordinary. Spiritual medicines can be directly judged by the concentration of spiritual energy emanating from them.
Even some seedlings have great differences in the concentration of spiritual energy.
Xiao Lin also saw several seedlings of third-level spiritual herbs on these stalls. Most of them were only a dozen years old and were ruthlessly picked and sold.
The price of these seedlings of third-level spiritual herbs is cheaper than that of ordinary second-level spiritual herbs that can be used for alchemy, because even if you buy these seedlings, it is a hassle, and it is not easy to cultivate them alive.
Even if you really find a place with rich spiritual energy and cultivate them successfully, for cultivators, whether they can live to wait until the day they mature is an unknown number.
Therefore, few people will buy these seedlings of third-level spiritual herbs, but for these casual cultivators, when they are outside for trials, once they encounter such third-level spiritual herbs in the seedling stage, they will definitely pick them.
Even if there are only a few mosquitoes, they are still meat. In order to be able to sell them, these seedlings of third-level spiritual medicines are usually marked with a very low price, which leads to a funny scene.
A seedling of a third-level spiritual grass may only be sold for three or two low-grade spiritual stones, and for the stall owner, as long as someone is willing to pay the price, basically they will be sold.
For others, this kind of seedling of third-level spiritual medicine is indeed a bit tasteless, but for Xiao Lin, who has a spiritual wood space, it is an unexpected surprise, and he also knows that many third-level spiritual herbs are born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Unlike the first and second-level spiritual herbs that can bloom and bear fruit, they can be artificially planted through seeds.
But the seedlings of third-level spiritual herbs are not all cheap. There are two types of third-level spiritual herb seedlings that are much more expensive, that is, the seedlings of third-level spiritual herbs that can be used to refine spiritual pills that improve cultivation and restore mana.
In the southern region, the seven ancient sects occupy seven large spiritual veins. In the seven sects, there are the legendary third-level and fourth-level spiritual fields. The third-level spiritual fields are divided into three categories: upper, middle and lower grades, and the same is true for the fourth-level spiritual fields.
It is certain that a third-level spiritual field can be opened up on a large spiritual vein. If you are lucky, you can also open up a third-level upper-grade spiritual field. And above the root of this large spiritual vein, you can also open up a small piece of fourth-level spiritual field.
On this kind of third- and fourth-level spiritual fields, you can plant third-level spiritual medicines or even fourth-level spiritual medicines.
But even for the seven ancient sects, the area of these spiritual fields is limited. Compared with the huge number of cultivators in the sect, there are more wolves than meat.
So in order to maximize the use of resources, these third- and fourth-level spiritual fields are usually only used to cultivate third-level spiritual herbs that can be used to refine elixirs that improve the cultivation of cultivators and restore mana, which makes this kind of spiritual grass seedlings very tight in the market.
Besides Xiaohan Temple, the other six major sects have special disciples who travel around the major immortal cities all year round, searching for this kind of spiritual grass seedlings and bringing them back to the sect for cultivation.
Although the cultivation time is often hundreds of years, for a sect that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, the output can barely keep up with the consumption of the middle and high-level cultivators in the sect.
Of course, even the leader of Guxuan Sect cannot take the third-level spiritual pill frequently. It is already very good to be able to issue two or three pills every year.
So Xiao Lin wandered around this market for a long time, but he didn't see the extremely Yin grass that can be used to refine the cold pill. As for the ice soul lotus seeds, he didn't even see a lotus pod.
This made Xiao Lin feel a little regretful in addition to the satisfaction of the harvest. After all, the two main ingredients of the refining of the cold pill are the foundation. Without these two main ingredients, even if all the auxiliary spiritual medicines are gathered, it is impossible to start the furnace to refine the pill.
After more than an hour of shopping, the sky has gradually darkened, and the stall owners have begun to close their stalls. Xiao Lin saw that it was getting late, but he had only visited less than one-fifth of the market.
After a little thought, Xiao Lin turned around and left the East City Market. In his opinion, there was no need to rush. Even if he could not collect all the materials for refining the cold pill for the time being, it didn't matter. If it really didn't work, he would go back to the big shops in the city to have a look.
Xiao Lin spent more than an hour and returned to the courtyard. He entered the practice room and began his daily practice without fail.
In the next few days, Xiao Lin would wake up from his meditation early in the morning, wash up, and go to the East City Market. In the past few days, he had visited most of the stalls in the market.
His harvest was quite rich. He actually collected all the auxiliary medicinal materials for refining the Huhan Pill. Even the ancient recipe of Quhuo Pill, Xiao Lin actually collected most of the known spiritual herbs in it.
However, compared with all the medicinal materials of Quhuo Pill, these spiritual herbs only accounted for about 30%. But what surprised Xiao Lin was that he actually got a few seedlings of spiritual herbs that he thought were extinct.
This surprised Xiao Lin, who had no hope of refining Quhuo Pill. He also began to focus on finding various spiritual herbs for refining Huhan Pill and collected spiritual herbs for both kinds of spiritual pills.
However, after visiting all the stalls, he only collected more than 20% of the spiritual herbs for refining Quhuo Pill, which was still far from being able to refine it. The only thing that comforted Xiao Lin was that he actually bought the blood scale grass, one of the three main medicines for refining Quhuo Pill, at a stall.
Moreover, the blood scale grass in the hands of the stall owner at the eighth level of Qi Refining was not just one, but twelve. Although they were only more than ten years old, for Xiao Lin, these were not a problem.
The number of blood scale grass surprised him. After bargaining with the stall owner with a "painful" face, Xiao Lin finally bought the twelve blood scale grass seedlings at the price of two hundred and forty low-grade spirit stones.
After receiving the blood scale grass seedlings from the stall owner, Xiao Lin was very happy. For him, this was already a big bargain.
The stall owner naturally knew that the blood scale grass was a third-level spirit grass, but he was very sure that the blood scale grass was not used to refine elixirs to improve cultivation and restore mana, so he knew that it could not be sold at a considerable price.
So after Xiao Lin expressed his desire to buy it, the stall owner was half-hearted and half-hearted, and after Xiao Lin showed a look of embarrassment on his face, he did not hesitate to make the deal.
After buying the blood scale grass, Xiao Lin left the market and returned to his residence. He entered the spirit wood space through meditation. At this moment, in the spirit wood space, except for a small amount of mixed spirit grass, blood ganoderma fruit and purple spirit flower, there were basically large areas of five-element spirit grass.
Five-element spirit pills were no longer useful to Xiao Lin. The reason why he was still planting five-element spirit grass was mainly to cultivate the soul-devouring fire Gu. Once those dormant soul-devouring fire Gu broke out of their cocoons, they would need a large amount of second-level spirit grass to feed.
In addition, there was a large open space in the spirit wood space. Xiao Lin chose a location that was relatively suitable for the saplings and planted all the seedlings of the third-level spirit grass collected in the past few days.
After spending two or three hours to take care of these spirit medicines, Xiao Lin also separated these spirit medicines with stone slabs, and then pinched a water control formula to irrigate all the spirit medicines before leaving the spirit wood space.
After leaving the spiritual wood space, Xiao Lin first sank his spiritual consciousness into the spirit beast bag and observed it. After finding that the insect eggs had not changed, he withdrew his spiritual consciousness and entered the practice room, sitting cross-legged on the futon.
After a brief thought, Xiao Lin took out a jade slip from the storage bag, put it in his palm, immersed his mind in it, and began to browse carefully.
He had already comprehended the secret art of Yi Ling Bian. In Xiao Lin's opinion, it would not take long for him to fully comprehend it, and then he could start practicing.
Once he mastered the secret art of Yi Ling Bian, Xiao Lin could almost change into someone else's appearance at any time and place, whether it was aura or cultivation. Of course, the cultivation of the person he changed into had to be lower than his.
And once the change was completed, unless it was a Yuanying old monster, it would be impossible to see through his true face.
