Gate of Immortality
Chapter 180: Commotion in Alchemy Hall
Yang Shi casually entered the main hall. Suddenly, three people came running.
" Halt! Do you have permission to enter the main hall?" The guards asked. They didn't wear armors like royal guards, but white linen robes. There was a three-leg cauldron image on their back.
" Huh? Do I need permission?" Yang Shi showed them his master grade badge.
" Master grade blacksmith?!" The guards became startled. They could hardly believe that Yang Shi became a master grade blacksmith at such young age.
" This is indeed an authentic token. You can enter." The guards nodded. They moved aside, making way for Yang Shi.
The girl at the medicine counter became astonished as she saw the respectful face of those guards. For ordinary peoples, they buy all their things from the pill counter outside. The pill counter only sells pills of rank three and lower. Moreover, it doesn't sell medicinal herbs.
Only distinguished people can enter the main hall. Most of them are either alchemists or blacksmiths. The main hall was more like a stadium, with lots of people inside. Yang Shi strolled inside as he saw many white robed cultivators. They all have a cauldron insignia on their back. There are also some red robe cultivators. One can easily tell that white robe cultivators are alchemists and red robed cultivators are
But there are more alchemists here than blacksmiths. Yang Shi wasn't surprised as there were reasons for this. The main reason was, the fire vein in Golden Fire Tower in Firmament City is very fierce and its metal attribute very high. It's unusable for alchemy and growing herbs.
Here, Golden Fire Alchemy Hall has a fire vein, with spirit wood attributes. So, it's very good for growing herbs and using them as alchemy fire.
Yang Shi was casually strolling there as he has nothing much to do. He went to the mission hall and registered his name there. The person in the mission hall was surprised to see how young Yang Shi was. He couldn't remember seeing Yang Shi in Azure Wind City before.
" Maybe, he is a young master of some hidden clan?" He thought. Without good background, becoming a master grade blacksmith is very difficult. Yang Shi casually checked the mission there as he found many good commissions.
" I will take this one and this one."
Yang Shi took two commissions, which were worth of hundred credit points. Most of the commission was about alchemy, so Yang Shi could only pick commissions that were about blacksmithing.
Those commissions were all about making three middle tier Spirit grade weapons. Yang Shi felt these were the easiest ones, so he chose them. Then he went to the treasure hall.
" Can I get some Hazey Dream Grass?" Yang Shi asked as he ran out of his cigars. " Hazey Dream Grass? Sure, Each stalk is worth one credit point." The old man there said.
Yang Shi spent ten credit points to purchase them. But before he left, he suddenly asked, " How much does Soul Nourishment Pill costs?"
" Soul Nourishment Pill? Young Man, why are you asking about that pill? Your soul is injured?" The old man asked in surprise. " Ah, It's just I want some." Yang Shi smiled.
" Want some?!"
The old man's eyelid twitched. " Young Man, Each pill costs over 300 credit points. Moreover, You need to provide the ingredients yourself. There aren't any Soul Nourishing Pill in stock. But then, You can ask a master alchemist here to concoct you a Soul Nourishing Pill.'' The old man explained.
" Oh. I understand now." Yang Shi nodded. He wondered where he can find an alchemist who can concoct Soul Nourishing Pill of good quality. " Hmm, I still have three stalks of Soul Nourishing Grass." Yang Shi thought. He knew how alchemists waste their materials. If Yang Shi gave them three stalks of Soul Nourishing Grass, he might get only one pill. But of course, he was talking about the alchemists here.
Real legendary alchemists can concoct six top tier Soul Nourishing Pills from three stalks of Soul Nourishing grass.
It's not that YangShi disdaining the alchemists here, but having the memory of Samsara Emperor had increased his standards. He considers himself as one of the top notch master grade blacksmiths, if not the best.
He can proudly say that he can make Spirit grade weapons without wasting much material. Yang Shi was coming back, but suddenly he heard a commotion.
" Damn it! You call yourself a blacksmith? It's the fifth time my cauldron exploded." A young man shouted.
" Young Master Liu, It's common that cauldrons explode after unsuccessful pill refinement, Why are you blaming this old man?" A middle aged man shook his head.
" Unsuccessful pill refinement?! It's because of your trashy cauldrons, I can refine Floating Cloud Pill. You cauldrons are trash, can't even handle a bit of heat." The young Master Liu raged.
" Young Master, you shouldn't speak without evidence. Just because your pill refinement skill isn't good, you will call my cauldron trash?" The middle aged man rebuked.
" What's happening here?" Yang Shi asked curiously. " Liu Jiang is arguing with Master Zhuo. He was trying to refine Floating Cloud Pill, so he bought a cauldron from Master Zhuo. But every time he refined Folating Could Pill, the cauldron would explode at the last minute." A passerby explained.
" How many cauldrons have exploded by now?" Yang Shi asked. " Eh? By now, It's about ten cauldrons. Each cost around 100,000 gold coins." The passerby sighed. " Hah? The total would be a million gold coins. Such wastage." Yang Shi shook his head.
" Wait! Liu surname, What is his relationship with Liu Jie?" Yang Shi suddenly thought of something. " Liu Jie? She is his elder sister." The bystander replied.
" Sister Jie's brother." Yang Shi sighed. " It seems I have to intervene." Yang Shi thought.
" Fellow Daoists, why are you quarreling?" Yang Shi stepped forward with a smiling face. " Huh, brat, don't meddle in my business." Master Zhuo waved his hand as he was already annoyed by Liu Jiang. Yang Shi's face twitched as he was about to say something, but Master Zhuo cut in.
" Liu Jiang, just because you are family head's son, you think you can tarnish my reputation? You better apologize to me or forget about getting pill cauldrons again." Master Zhuo snorted.
" Good! You think you are the only one who can forge pill cauldrons here? I was giving you some face earlier, but it seems you are not worthy of that." Liu Jiang laughed coldly.
" Haha! It seems you are adamant about your decision. Good! I will be eager to see when you will come crawling to get a pill cauldron from me." Master Zhou sneered as he turned to leave.
Master Zhou is one of the senior Master grade blacksmiths of Azure Wind City. He was famous in Azure Wind City. His reputation was also good.
He was an expert in forging pill cauldrons. There are various types of blacksmiths. Some can forge weapons, some are good in forging cauldrons, some are experts in making armors, and some can create strange artifacts.
Of course, Yang Shi is a versatile blacksmith. Som even he had never forged a pill cauldron, he has enough knowledge to forge one.
" Hmph! Just wait and see how I will refine Floating Cloud Pill." Liu Jiang stomped his feet as he also turned to leave. " Uhh, Brother Liu, can you spare some time for me?" Yang Shi smiled.
" Who are you? Do I know you?" Liu Jiang asked in confusion.
" Hehe, do you recognize this?" Yang Shi smiled as he took out a sword from his spatial ring.
Liu Jiang's expression changed as he stared at that sword.
