Chapter 40 Selling Materials
After looking at Xiao Lin, who looked calm, the old man continued, "The sharp horns and scales of this thunder rhino are indeed excellent materials for refining low-level magic tools, and the best is to have a set. For this set, our Sihai Jucaiju can sell 20 low-grade spirit stones. Of course, if the quantity is large, we can increase it by 20% on this basis. After all, large quantities help our weapon refiners to cast magic tools in batches."
Xiao Lin did not speak. The price the old man said was beyond his expectations. If it was sold in the outer city, the sharp horns and four scales of this thunder rhino could only sell for 16 or 17 low-grade spirit stones at most.
Xiao Lin was silent for a while, then took out a small jade bottle from his pocket and placed it in front of the old man.
"Huh?" The old man exclaimed in surprise, picked up the jade bottle, opened the lid, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and then his eyes lit up.
"Yunling Pill?"
"Yes, I wonder how much Yunling Pill your house can sell for?" Xiao Lin asked.
The old man smiled after his spiritual sense scanned the jade bottle and said, "In this Wuyin Immortal City, elixirs that can improve cultivation have always been scarce and usually have a high price. I didn't expect that fellow Daoist is an extremely rare alchemist. This bottle of Yunling Pill contains ten finished pills. I can buy it with 150 low-grade spiritual stones.
Xiao Lin remained calm on the surface, but was surprised in his heart. You know, a Lingwu grass that is more than ten years old is only worth about 20 low-grade spiritual stones. The highest 20-year-old Lingwu grass is at most more than 30 low-grade spiritual stones. One Lingwu grass can refine a furnace of Yunling Pill. With Xiao Lin's current alchemy level, he can refine at least six pills from one furnace of Yunling Pill. This way, the profit is several times.
However, Xiao Lin thought about the success rate of alchemy again, and Relieved, this price is relatively reasonable, it seems that they should have estimated it long ago.
The reason why Xiao Lin was going to sell some Soul-Enriching Pills was mainly to prepare more spirit stones for the auction. After he entered the sixth level of Qi Refining, he found that even if he took Soul-Enriching Pills to assist in cultivation, his cultivation speed was much slower. It is very likely that after one or two more levels, the Soul-Enriching Pills will completely lose their effectiveness. In his Spirit Wood Space, there are at least nearly thirty bottles of Soul-Enriching Pills.
However, Xiao Lin did not plan to sell too many at once. This time, he planned to take out three bottles of Soul-Enriching Pills for sale, and slowly sell the rest in the future. As for the Soul-Returning Pills and the Great Soul-Returning Pills, they are also useful to him at this stage, so he has no intention of selling them.
"But I don't know how many Soul-Enriching Pills and Thunder Rhino Beast sets of materials you have?"
"There are not many Soul-Enriching Pills, but there are some Thunder Rhino Beast sets of materials. However, I don't have a storage bag, so I can't take them all at once. I'm sorry to make you laugh. I'll come back tomorrow. "Xiao Lin did not directly respond to the old man's question, but said something ambiguous.
The old man was not angry when he heard this. He was used to this kind of thing. Many cultivators would choose to compare prices when selling materials. And it was indeed as Xiao Lin said, most low-level cultivators could not afford to use storage bags, which also limited them from carrying too many materials. After all, most of the materials on the monsters were not small.
But the old man Baili smiled slightly and said to Xiao Lin: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, are you interested in storage bags? The storage bags of our Sihai Jucaiju are definitely the best quality among all the merchants in the entire Tianlu Mountains. Although it is only a primary storage bag, the space is much larger than that of an ordinary primary storage bag.
"Oh?" Xiao Lin really showed an interested expression. Although he had received a storage bag from Li Yan of the cultivation family, he had always kept it in the spirit wood space and never dared to use it. If he did not have a storage bag, he would have a lot of inconvenience when he was trying in the Tianlu Mountains.
"Can I take a look?" Xiao Lin said.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, please wait a moment." The old man Baili walked out of the room, and after a while, he walked back into the room with a wooden box in his hand. After sitting down, he placed the wooden box in front of Xiao Lin.
"This is the storage bag made by our Sihai Jucaiju. This kind of storage bag is the symbol of the high-level Qi-refining cultivators in Wuyin Xiancheng. Not only will the high-level Qi-refining cultivators choose our Sihai Jucaiju storage bags, but even those few Qi-refining Great Perfection cultivators also mostly use our Sihai Jucaiju storage bags."
"I wonder how much this storage bag costs?" Xiao Lin opened the wooden box, and in the wooden box was a palm-sized sachet-like storage bag, which looked like it was woven from silk, with a very smooth surface. At the mouth of the bag, there was a two-inch long gold thread that tied the entire bag tightly.
"Our storage bag is made of ice silk from cold silkworms, and the golden silk at the mouth of the bag is even more golden silk. It is impervious to swords and guns, and is impervious to water and fire. It is absolutely safe when wrapped around the belt. The materials used are all of high quality, and with the complicated craftsmanship, the price is naturally not cheap. This storage bag costs 200 low-grade spirit stones." The old man Baili said with a smile.
Xiao Lin was surprised. Now he finally understood why most low-level cultivators could not afford a storage bag. Two hundred low-grade spirit stones, many low-level cultivators may not be able to save so many spirit stones in decades. It seems that the cultivation world is just like the mortal world, with serious wealth disparity. This storage bag is equivalent to the price of an ordinary high-level magic weapon.
"If it was an ordinary low-level cultivator, I would not have taken out this storage bag at all. However, Fellow Daoist Xiao is definitely different. An alchemist who can take out a whole bottle of Yunling Pill at once is naturally worth a different price. If Fellow Daoist Xiao is willing to sell all the Yunling Pills and the materials of Thunder Rhinoceros Beast to our Sihai Jucaiju, then I can make the decision. How about using this storage bag to exchange for a bottle of Yunling Pill for Fellow Daoist Xiao?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lin remained silent. This condition was indeed very tempting, which was equivalent to giving himself a discount of fifty low-grade spirit stones. The old man in front of him was indeed a veteran in business. He used this storage bag to eat Xiao Lin to death. If Xiao Lin continued to compare prices, he could only pay two hundred low-grade spirit stones for this storage bag. If he wanted to save these fifty spirit stones, he would have to sell all the spirit pills and materials to be sold to Sihai Jucaiju tomorrow.
Xiao Lin pondered the interests involved. The reason why Old Man Baili was so concerned about this deal was obviously not for the sharp horns and scales of the Thunder Rhinoceros Beast, but most likely for the Soul-Enriching Pill, which was exactly what he needed. Moreover, if he went to compare prices from three different stores, more people would know that he had a lot of Soul-Enriching Pills, which obviously went against Xiao Lin's original intention.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin showed an embarrassed look. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's do as Mr. Xing said. I will first exchange this bottle of Soul-Enriching Pill for this storage bag. Tomorrow morning, I will bring the remaining Soul-Enriching Pills and materials to sell."
"Of course." Old Man Baili smiled when he heard this.
Xiao Lin took the storage bag on the table and said goodbye to Old Man Baili. Old Man Baili did not try to keep him. After the two of them exchanged some polite words, Xiao Lin walked out of Sihai Jucaiju.
Xiao Lin was not in a hurry to return to the outer city. Since he was already here, he had to walk around a bit to make his low-grade spirit stone worthwhile. He walked around the inner city for a long time and visited several large shops selling magic tools. Although these large shops sold mid-level magic tools and even a small number of high-level magic tools, there was no magic tool that caught Xiao Lin's eye.
You should know that for a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, the number of magic tools that can be driven at one time is also limited. Not to mention that driving magic tools consumes a lot of mana, more importantly, it consumes spirit. The spirit here refers to the spiritual consciousness of the cultivator. Whether the cultivator controls magic tools or spells, it needs to consume spiritual consciousness, but casting spells consumes much less spiritual consciousness than controlling magic tools. The main reason is that spells do not need to be controlled by spiritual consciousness all the time, and even many spells do not need to be taken care of after they are cast. But magic tools are different. As long as they are driven, they will constantly consume spiritual consciousness, and the spiritual consciousness consumed by the controlled magic tools is different.
Generally, cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining can only control one primary-level magic weapon at most, and cannot control a mid-level magic weapon at all. For cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining, they can control three primary-level magic weapons or two mid-level magic weapons at a time. For cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining, they can control five primary-level magic weapons or three mid-level magic weapons or two top-grade magic weapons at a time. Only cultivators who have reached the great perfection of Qi Refining can control more than two top-grade magic weapons.
Of course, the strength of a cultivator's spiritual consciousness is generally related to his realm. There are also a very small number of cultivators who are born with strong spiritual consciousness and can control one or two more magic weapons than ordinary cultivators. This is also a normal thing.
With Xiao Lin's current realm of the sixth level of Qi Refining, he can control two mid-level magic weapons at most. If Xiao Lin can break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, he can drive high-level magic weapons. Therefore, unless it is a magic weapon that fits him very well, Xiao Lin will have no use even if he buys more, unless he is born with a strong spiritual consciousness that far exceeds that of ordinary cultivators, but it is obviously not the case.
While shopping, Xiao Lin also paid special attention to the primary spell marks, but was surprised to find that none of the relatively large shops in Wuyin Xiancheng had seals for sale. This surprised him very much. After communicating with a shop assistant who sold various basic spells, Xiao Lin finally understood. It turned out that basic spells can be learned through practice, and the seals of primary spells are obtained by hunting monsters. The seals of primary spells can only be obtained in the bodies of monsters above the true level, and even in the bodies of true monsters, the probability of obtaining seals is extremely small. There may not be one seal in the bodies of a hundred monsters. Of course, there are also a very small number of ordinary monsters at the great perfection level that may have seals in their bodies, but the probability is smaller than that of true monsters.
