Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 11: Chapter 11 Uncle, I grew up under your gaze! _1

Letʼs set aside for a moment the blood-soaked struggle of Zeng Wen, a Ninth Level Great Cultivator of Qi Refinement, which caused The Great Dao Path to tremble and the heavens to change color.

Luo Chen, on the other hand, had tasted some real benefits!

In the past, he only had one product, the Fasting Elixir. Customers had no choice but to take it or leave it, without any room for negotiation.

There was little to no room for bargaining.

He wasnʼt even able to set up any standard sales promotions.

Unlike Elder Chen, who sold the Concealing Qi Talisman at a high price, and when a customer hesitated, he could say ”This is the price, at most, I can give you an additional Cleaning Talisman!”

Luo Chen didnʼt have any extras to throw in as part of the deal.

Now, he finally had a second product that he could showcase with pride!

Well, not exactly. The Allure Pill, a low-grade enhancement elixir, couldnʼt really be displayed with much dignity. Whereʼs his shame?!

But regardless, the successful sale of the first Allure Pill gave him a glimmer of hope!

The price was somewhat inflated. The cost was one Spirit Stone, but it sold for five.

But as history has shown, food, medicine, and exercises related to enhancing vitality never go out of style.

Even in the Immortal Cultivation World, a place that values individual strength!

Ironically, it was in fact the opposite in this aspect.

Lower Order Cultivators, especially those at the Qi Refinement stage, who are in the middle of transforming their spirit into qi, making progress in their cultivation by simply refining and transporting the restless Spirit Qi from the outside world is very slow.

Thatʼs why thereʼs a market for Spirit Rice and meats from Demon Beasts, both of which contain a high amount of Spirit Qi, as well as for elixirs.

Plus, Spirit Power is everywhere in the body, and Lower Order Cultivators often cannot control theirs. The slightest stimulation can easily lead to a loss of vital energy.

Thus, to ensure the most efficient transformation of Spirit Qi, a lot of cultivation techniques have corresponding secret techniques for preserving vital energy.

In the classics, thereʼs a term called ”Horse Yin Concealing Phase”.

There are usually only two ways to deal with this situation.

One is for the cultivator to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, develop Spirit Consciousness, and freely control the transformation of internal Spirit Power with Spirit Consciousness. At that time, they will become stronger and stronger.

Otherwise, at an early stage, who could climb The Great Dao Path when leaking vital energy at every turn?

The second solution is for the Qi Refinement cultivator to voluntarily unlock the Lower Passage Golden Lock when they realize that they have no hope of advancing on their path.

Backed by all their Spirit Power, they can easily regain their vital energy.

Thatʼs why in the Immortal Cultivation World, those cultivators who establish clans are often old cultivators with no hope of advancing further.

They know their level - they canʼt advance further, and theyʼre stuck there for a lifetime.

Why bother with all that effort? Just go home, have kids, and enjoy your life!

But with the introduction of the Allure Pill, a special product for cultivators in the Qi Refinement stage, the situation has completely reversed.

Its primary ingredients are water-based pearl pillars and fire-based Fire Dog Tail, which have a harmonizing effect.

Once consumed, a little stimulation of the Spirit Qi within can cause a rebirth of vitality without having to unlock the Lower Passage Golden Lock!

Why else would Luo Chen be so desperate to produce this thing?

Not because he had a personal need for it!

But because this market had a huge demand for it!

Luo Chen was addressing what everyone else was concerned about and thinking about what everyone else was contemplating.

If he were on Earth, he would at least be a little hero, known as the timely rain!

When the second bottle of Allure Pills was sold again at a unit price of five Spirit Stones, the way Elder Chen looked at him changed.

He once held a Concealing Qi Talisman worth at least three Spirit Stones and compared it with the exquisite little jade bottle.

Mumbling to himself:

”It shouldnʼt be!”

”My Concealing Qi Talisman is made from three-color earth dragon blood and odorless field mouse; the cost is two Spirit Stones. Could it be that the cost of the Allure Pills is higher than mine?”

”Or could it be that compared to something that can save their lives at a critical moment, male cultivators value that... other ability more?”

Luo Chen didnʼt bother explaining.

Even when the Fasting Elixir was sold out and there were only a few lonely Allure Pills left at his stall, he stayed put.

Today, he was going to aggressively poach Elder Chenʼs customers.

Whenever a cultivator came by to buy talismans, he would pull them aside and whisper.

”Friend, are you interested in knowing more about the Allure Pill?”

Of course, not everyone was interested.

Those with strong wills and high aspirations would outright refuse.

How could they shift their focus to carnal pleasures?

Those kinds of guys could never achieve anything!

Those with a strong sense of pride would leave in a huff.

”Do I look like someone who needs that kind of medicine?”

But most cultivators showed a clear interest.

Especially when Luo Chen repeated his trick and talked about how Mr. Yun Zhonghe had used this medicine to battle the Fourth Order Beast Emperor, they were more than ready to spend money for the chance to follow in the footsteps of their predecessor.

And so, by the afternoon, Luo Chen managed to sell all the Allure Pills.

Sharing a bag of spicy beef jerky with Elder Chen, Luo Chen chewed on his beef jerky and started calculating his earnings of the day.

Firstly, twenty bottles of Fasting Elixir, with a stable market price, in total brought in four Spirit Stones.

Then comes the new product, the Allure Pill, ten bottles of which sold for forty-six Spirit Stones.

The reason it didnʼt reach fifty was because a few bottles were slightly discounted to open up the market.

After all, there should always be some concession for newly listed items.

After tallying up, Luo Chen couldnʼt help but breathe a sigh of relief.

His savings finally managed to hit the fifty mark yet again!

That means he could once again start the production of Allure Pills.

But, until his proficiency with the Allure Pills reaches a qualitative change, his sales volume probably wouldnʼt see any growth.

Given this income, it could barely suffice for regular cultivation of his Five Spirit Root Talent.

Therefore, if he wants to increase production, heʼd have to take one path.

Expand production!

However, to expand production, he would need to incur higher costs and use more Spirit Stones.

But where would he get Spirit Stones from?

”Friend Luo, if I may ask bluntly, how much does it cost for you to produce these Allure Pills?”

”So, you know what it means to be rude!” Luo Chen replied without lifting his head.

Elder Chen gave an awkward laugh, but being as thick-skinned as he was, he didnʼt get upset.

He had a clear view of Luo Chenʼs earnings for the day as he was sitting right beside him.

Fifty Spirit Stones!

Thatʼs an amount Luo Chen would only be able to earn after selling two hundred and fifty bottles of Fasting Elixir.

Knowing that itʼs impolite to ask about someoneʼs business secrets, he stopped pressing when Luo Chen didnʼt respond.

However, Luo Chen leaned over.

”Uncle Chen...”

”Hmm?”

Heʼs starting to call him uncle again!

”I grew up under your watchful eyes, no, you grew up watching me. You know exactly how much I have in terms of Spirit Stones. As for the cost of Allure Pills, you probably have a rough idea as well.”

Luo Chen said sincerely, his tone was genuine beyond doubt.

”I canʼt tell the exact cost, you have an idea anyway, as long as you donʼt let it out, but selling it at a high price, that I can teach you some tricks!”

Elder Chen hesitated, recalling Luo Chenʼs operations throughout the day.

That got him thinking!

However, some things still didnʼt quite add up.

Thatʼs the difference between a transmigrator who has been through modern information bombardment and a native elder.

Even after watching someone else operate, he still doesnʼt understand the reasoning behind it.

”I can tell you this trick, but could you do Luo a favor?”

”A favor?” Elder Chen looked at Luo Chen with confusion, his left eye involuntarily twitched, ”Let me make it clear first, I can help, but I wonʼt lend Spirit Stones!”

Luo Chen held on to his sleeve and shook it incessantly, his eyes filled with admiration.

”Uncle Chen, in this cold world of Immortal Cultivation, you are the only elder who cares for Luo!”

”Friend, respect yourself!”

”Uncle! Not much, just fifty, and theyʼre Lower Grade Spirit Stones, lend me just this once! At most, Iʼll pay you back in half a month!”

”Sheesh, you really dare to ask!”

”You know how much Luo made today. I have the ability to pay, you have to believe in me!”

As Luo Chen grabbed Elder Chen Xiupingʼs thick and rough hand, he said, ”Uncle, trust me! Plus, donʼt you want to know how to sell your talisman for a high price?”

Elder Chen was slightly moved.

”Honestly, every time I see talismans you painstakingly crafted being sold for a few Spirit Stones, itʼs like a knife twisting in my heart!”

”If they belittle your talisman-making skills, they belittle Luo!”

”Uncle, trust me, lend me the Spirit Stones. I will help you sell your talisman at a high price. From then on, we can grow bigger and stronger, creating a glorious future!”

Gulp!

Elder Chen swallowed, his wrinkled face staring deeply at Friend Xiao Luo.

”Really?”

”Just fifty, youʼre not going to get ripped off or fooled!”

”Ahh, here you go! Iʼm a Sixth Level Qi Refinement Great Cultivator, I think you wouldnʼt dare to default!”

Luo Chen quickly took the large amount of scattered Spirit Stones, put them into his small bag, tightly pulled the rope and stuffed it into the deepest part of his interior lining.

Elder Chen quickly turned his face away, unable to see this scene.

That was his money!

”All right, you can speak now.”

”Friend Chen, do you know what brand value is?”
