Chapitre 36: Chapter 36 Gathering Medicinal Ingredients
Yin Xing was extremely excited. This was a never before seen, improved version of the normal 'Qi barrier-breaking' pill, and as a rank 3 bronze grade alchemist, he could easily understand the effects of a rank 1 pill after inspecting it for a while.
''Who knows, perhaps if I'm lucky enough, this senior may even give me the recipe for this improved 'Qi barrier-breaking' pill in the end.''
Although Yin Xing had these thoughts in his mind, he didn't try to push his luck in fear of incurring Shun Long's displeasure.
However, Yin Xing was now determined to do everything he can in order to leave behind a good impression on Shun Long.
Since Shun Long had said that he will sell them directly to the 'Treasure Pavilion' this time, he must have meant that he will sell more pills in the future, but he will probably put them up for auction and won't sell them directly to the pavilion like he did this time.
''Perhaps this senior could take a liking in me and accept me as a disciple. Then I will get to learn all sorts of precious pill recipes like this one hehehe...''
Yin Xing had already started daydreaming, and even his drool had started dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Shun Long was a bit disgusted looking at his expression, while Mei Yi's and Wong Bo's faces had turned red from shame.
*Cough*
Shun Long coughed once to wake Yin Xing up before he said
''I also need to purchase some things from your 'Treasure Pavilion' this time.''
Yin Xing realized his blunder as this was a very shameful display for a rank 3 bronze grade alchemist, so he hurriedly said
''Don't worry senior, just tell me what you need and I will personally go and bring everything over''
Just then a sudden idea came to Yin Xing's mind, as he took something from his spatial ring before handing it to Shun Long
''Senior, please accept this VIP card as a gift from our 'Treasure Pavilion'. It can give you a 40 percent discount on everything that you directly purchase from our 'Treasure Pavilion'. Unfortunately, this VIP card doesn't count inside our pavilion's auctions, but it may still come in handy for when senior visits our Pavilion.''
Shun Long was astonished by this VIP card's features. It had the same use as fatty Fu's privileges inside the 'Treasure Pavilion'.
Shun Long laughed and accepted the VIP card as he expressed his thanks at Yin Xing, before listing out the ingredients he needed
''I need 40 sets of 'Honey Fruit', 'Blue stripped grass', '5-leafed giant flower', and 'Grisly growing root'. I also need a 'white-root Ganoderma', a 'blood lotus' at least 50 years of age, a 'fire-spirit fruit', a 'water element grass' as well as half a bottle of a rank 3 'black-tongued python's' poison.
Yin Xing was exhilarated that he could manage to leave behind a good impression after his previous blunder, but when he heard the second part of the ingredients that Shun Long had listed his face suddenly paled.
He said in an almost crying tone
''Senior, although our 'Treasure Pavilion' has some of these ingredients, I am not sure if we have everything that you listed just now''
Shun Long was a bit disappointed as he had originally thought that he could gather everything in the 'Treasure Pavilion', but in the end, he still waved his hand and said
''I understand, just tell me what is available. I already spotted the 'white-root Ganoderma' on the first floor, but if you don't have the rest of these herbs I will understand.''
Yin Xing seemed relieved that the senior was so understanding, and said
''Senior please give me a moment to check, I will be back very soon.''
Shun Long nodded and Yin Xing quickly left the room.
Half an hour later, Yin Xing returned, and as he waved his hand the previously empty table was now almost full with medicinal herbs.
''Senior, here are the 40 sets of 'Honey Fruit', 'Blue stripped grass', '5-leafed giant flower', and the 'Grisly growing root'. Their total cost would be 560 sect points, but considering the 40 percent discount of senior's VIP card, the final cost is only 336 sect points.''
Then Yin Xing took some more things from his spatial ring as he introduced every ingredient with great zeal
''This is the 'blood lotus' that senior asked for and it is almost 100 years old. Its price with senior's VIP card is only 300 sect points from the original 500, while this is the 'white-root Ganoderma' that senior requires and its final price would be 120 sect points.''
Yin Xing then pointed at a small bottle filled with black liquid on the table and said
''Senior, this is the poison of a rank 3 'black tongued python', and its price is only 900 sect points.
I also specifically inquired about the 'fire-spirit fruit' and the 'water element grass' and although they aren't available in our 'Treasure Pavilion' right now, I actually found out where senior can acquire them.''
Shun Long's eyes brightened when he heard that Yin Xing had information about the last 2 ingredients he needed.
If he could really get his hands on the 'fire-spirit fruit' and the 'water element grass' and refine the rank 2 'Internal destruction' pill, he would then be able to reach the first stage of the 'Monarch's Eternal body'.
Just based on the scenes that Shun Long had witnessed inside his mind, the power of the 'Monarch's Eternal body' was beyond shocking.
''Where can I find them?'' Shun Long asked
Although his tone was heavy, Yin Xing didn't fail to notice the unmistakable excitement in his voice and that made him puzzled
''This senior is definitely someone who has reached at least the rank 1 silver grade as an alchemist, just based on the perfection of his 'Qi barrier-breaking' pills. Although the 'fire-spirit fruit' and the 'water element grass' are relatively rare rank 2 medicinal herbs, they shouldn't be that rare to such a senior or hold so much allure for him.''
Although Yin Xing was somewhat puzzled, he still answered Shun Long's question
''They should appear 15 days from now, in our 'Treasure Pavilion's' auction.''

Chapitre 37: Chapter 37 Arena Match
Shun Long was already interested in participating at the auction, but now that he heard that the last 2 ingredients he needed would probably appear there, attending the auction 15 days from now became one of his top priorities.
''Senior, after deducting the cost for the 40 sets of rank 1 herbs, the 'white-root Ganoderma', the 'blood lotus' and the 'black-tongued python's' poison, our 'Treasure Pavilion' still owes senior 844 sect points for the 'Qi barrier-breaking' pills.''
Yin Xing said, as he took out his sect identifying jade, and transferred the remaining amount to Shun Long.
Shun Long then, suddenly noticed a problem... he didn't have a spatial ring to carry all the stuff that he had bought today.
He took a deep breath as he thickened his face and said to Yin Xing
''I will also need a big bag.''
Yin Xing looked like he didn't understand until Shun Long pointed at a finger on his right hand and said
''Recently I met with an accident and my spatial ring was stolen. Until I find the culprit and get it back, I obviously have to carry everything myself. Hence why I wear these black robes, so I don't get recognized while carrying my stuff with me.''
Even Shun Long admired himself and his ability to spout nonsense in broad daylight.
Yin Xing showed a look of understanding as if he had just now realized the senior's predicament and he said to Mei Yi
''Quickly bring a bag for senior.''
Mei Yi rushed out and soon returned with a big black bag that Shun Long filled with the ingredients on the table.
Yin Xing's and Wong Bo's eyes twitched, watching those ingredients worth over 1000 sect points fill a bag like they were some kind of cheap goods that you could pick up from the side of the road, but they didn't dare comment on it.
Although Shun Long's face was pretty thick and could ignore their reactions, he still had bought everything that he needed from this trip of his to the 'Treasure Pavilion', so he bade farewell to Yin Xing and the rest as he left to return back to his room at the inn.
After Shun Long left the appraisal room, Yin Xing looked at Wong Bo and Mei Yi and said
''You guys did very well today. But remember, if in the future this senior returns to our 'Treasure Pavilion', you must make sure to inform me immediately.''
He emphasized the last words and Wong Bo and Mei Yi both nodded before they all left the room.
On the way back, Shun Long first found an isolated corner near the inn he was staying at and after switching back to his outer disciple robes, he returned to his room where he placed the big black bag that was full of medicinal ingredients on the floor.
Shun Long sighed as he said
''It really is difficult to walk around without a spatial ring. I need to obtain one soon or in the future I will be in trouble if I have to carry so much stuff again by myself.''
Although Shun Long had said that, he knew that a spatial ring was definitely very expensive if even fatty Fu didn't have one yet, but he was determined to inquire about it the next time he visited the 'Treasure Pavilion'.
After Shun Long left the black bag with the ingredients in his room, he went to find the inn-keeper to pay the 4 sect points for the next month as well.
As Shun Long now had 845 sect points on his 'sect identifying jade', the measly 4 sect points that his room costed for a month didn't mean much to him now.
After paying the inn-keeper, Shun Long decided to eat outside today. Although he had eaten the food that the inn delivered to his room every day, it was still food of the lowest quality, and having to eat that for a month, had already made his stomach grumble.
Although Shun Long couldn't be considered rich right now, with 841 sect points on him, he was definitely not poor anymore, so he chose a relatively good restaurant to eat.
He ate both meat and vegetables until he was full, and although the wine here couldn't compare to the 'Mystifying Fragrance Pavilion's', it was still much better than the plain water he drank every day for the past month that he was locked inside his room.
As Shun Long paid the bill and left the restaurant, he noticed a commotion around him, as most disciples on the street were all heading towards the east of the city.
Shun Long stopped a young man who was running and asked
''Excuse me brother, why is everyone in such a hurry?''
The young man that Shun Long had stopped looked at him as if he was an alien and said
''Haven't you heard? Today is the arena match between Xiao Juyan and Lei Pong. The winner will advance into the top 100 ranks of the arena.''
As soon as this disciple finished his explanation, he ran towards the east of the city.
''Arena matches? How interesting.''
Shun Long thought to himself as he too followed the rushing crowd.
