“Such expensive spirit herbs were given away just like that. It seems that Qing Zhu’s background is really not ordinary. Even the world-famous Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion places such importance on her.”

From the corner of his eye, he silently glanced at Qing zhu beside him. Gu Xi could not help but become more curious about Qing Zhu’s background.

“One thing is another. It’s better to accept this spirit stone.”

Right at this moment, Qing Zhu spoke again.

Hearing this, Tong Shan hesitated for a moment before taking the storage bag from Gu Xi’s hands. He immediately took out a portion of the spirit stones from it and returned the storage bag to Gu Xi once again. “Since that’s the case, I’ll give you a slight discount. It can be considered as an apology for my previous recklessness.”

!!

Glancing at the surplus spirit stones in his storage bag, Gu Xi clicked his tongue. The amount of spirit stones that Tong Shan had taken out was only one-tenth of the total amount. Buying so many materials with such a quantity was not much different from buying them for free.

“Since the materials have been bought, then we won’t stay any longer.”

Gu Xi slowly stood up and cupped his hands toward Tong Shan.

“Alright, take care.” Tong Shan nodded and also stood up to send them off.

Soon, Gu Xi and the others left the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, while Tong Shan and the other two directly sent them to the entrance downstairs. This once again attracted the attention of the crowd.

“That lady actually has the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token. Fortunately, she isn’t in a hurry to act today. Otherwise, this matter wouldn’t be so easy to resolve.”

Tong Shan involuntarily sighed in relief as he watched the figures of the few of them gradually disappear into the distance. Soon after, he continued with some doubt, “It is just that I do not know which family that lady is from. It has been many years since I have seen the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token…”

The Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token was the symbol of one’s identity within the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. The one who held the token could be said to possess an extraordinary privilege within the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Moreover, the number of people who were able to possess this golden token was extremely rare in the Five Continents. In fact, they could be counted on one hand. This was also the reason why Tong Shan’s attitude toward Gu Xi and the others changed drastically the moment he recognized the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token.

Even in the main pavilion of the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token located in the Central Plains, the holder of the golden token would be respected by everyone, not to mention a branch of the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token in the small Jingyang City.

“People from Central Plains, huh…”

The woman who had not spoken from the beginning to the end spoke softly at this moment.

…

At the inn.

Gu Xi sat upright on a chair. The storage bag that he had brought back from the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token was placed on the table in front of him. Little Nine, who was at the side, was playing with the toys that she had just bought from a street vendor.

Seeing Little Nine’s innocent look, Gu Xi could not help but feel a little helpless.

After leaving the pavilion just now, under the suggestion of the three women, Gu Xi had no choice but to bring them around Jingyang city. It was not easy for them to return to the inn. Despite the strength of his current physical body, he could not help but feel a little tired after this round. Because of the existence of the three femme fatales, he could be said to have endured the envious and jealous gazes of many men along the way. If not for the fact that gazes could kill, he would have been cut into a thousand pieces by now.

“Next, I will refine the Soul-casting Pill. Help me protect it.”

Shaking his head, Gu Xi no longer thought about it and said to Little Nine by the side.

Hearing this, Little Nine gently nodded her head, and her body disappeared without a sound.

Following the opening of the storage bag, all kinds of spiritual medicines flew out under Gu Xi’s control. There were actually nearly a hundred of them.

Immediately, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the room.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of others, Gu Xi waved his large hand, and an invisible spiritual energy barrier instantly enveloped the entire room. The medicinal fragrance within was completely isolated from the outside world, and not a single trace of it leaked out.

At the same time, with a muffled sound, the Mother Cauldron appeared. Gu Xi lightly snapped his fingers, and the cauldron began to burn with a flame formed from spiritual energy.

As time passed, the temperature in the room gradually rose.

Until a certain moment, Gu Xi’s gaze slightly moved, and he saw the nearly hundred types of spirit herbs rush into the medicinal cauldron. At the same time, the system’s voice sounded in his mind.

[Ding! Fire Lingzhi detected!]

[A total of 6,541 impurities!]

[Ding! Star Spirit Dragon Lotus detected!]

[A total of 8,415 impurities!]

[Ding! Colorful Heavenly Marrow detected!]

[A total of 5,144 impurities!]

…

Over a hundred types of spirit herbs were reported by the System one after another. Gu Xi’s reply was very consistent, which was to extract all of them!

A mysterious fluctuation covered the entire medicinal cauldron. Immediately, all of the spirit herbs within began to melt to varying degrees. At the same time, the medicinal fragrance in the air became increasingly dense. In the end, it had even materialized.

It must be known that the ingredients used to refine the Soul-casting Pill were all relatively precious spirit herbs. Moreover, there were so many of them. In addition, the System had also extracted impurities from these spirit herbs. This once again caused these originally precious herbs to reach a new level. With over a hundred perfect and flawless essences gathered together, it was not surprising that a substantial medicinal fragrance could be produced.

Very quickly, under the System’s extraction, all the impurities in the spirit herbs were completely extracted, and these originally strange-shaped spirit herbs had all turned into drops of viscous and spirit essence.

In the next moment, under the control of Gu Xi’s enormous spiritual sense, the essence of over a hundred spirit herbs began to fuse. In just a few minutes, the embryonic form of a medicinal pill had already appeared in the Medicinal Cauldron.

The next thing that needed to be done was to slowly polish the medicinal pill until the moment the medicinal pill was completely formed. The refinement of the Soul-casting Pill could be considered complete.

Gu Xi waited in peace as he guessed Qing Zhu’s true identity in his heart.

Not long after, a pill fragrance drifted out from within the medicinal cauldron. Gu Xi’s eyes could not help but light up. He knew that he was about to succeed.

In the next moment, a long rainbow suddenly shot into the sky from within the medicinal cauldron. It directly lifted the roof and shot into the sky above.

An extremely rich pill fragrance erupted from within the cauldron. This huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of quite a number of people in the city. Quite a number of people revealed surprised expressions. Immediately, a large number of people began to head in the direction of the inn.

The phenomenon of the pill being completed lasted for about 15 minutes. During this period of time, the entire surroundings of the inn had already become a sea of people. There were inevitably people who were alchemists as well. All of their faces were filled with incomparable shock.

Perhaps outsiders did not know what was the reason for the phenomenon in front of them. However, they, who were alchemists as well, were extremely clear in their hearts. This kind of quality medicinal pill was an existence that they could not compare to!
