Bounty mission
Number Nine Pill Shop.
Cultivation Room.
Su Bai was toying with the Pill Formula slip containing the Jade Slip for the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] in his hand.
Three days have passed since the Yingning Pill was refined.
The Exchange Conference at the Starlight Academy has concluded.
Now, in addition to the Miniature Pill Furnace, Su Bai also wears Token representing a teacher at the Starlight Academy on his waist.
He has successfully infiltrated the Starlight Academy and become Special Appointed Teacher in the Alchemy Lineage of the Starlight Academy.
Now, Su Bai can enter Starlight Academy to teach whenever he wants.
And it's perfectly reasonable for a teacher to approach students and assess their talent in Alchemy Talent, isn't it?
"The main spirit medicine of the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] is Fifth-tier Spirit Medicine, Profound Dome Bamboo."
This spirit medicine is almost extinct in the market and is quite difficult to find.
Su Bai had already finished studying the Pill Formula and memorized the necessary spirit medicine.
"The remaining low-grade auxiliary medicinal spirit medicine can be gradually gathered by relying on the Star Luo Pill Pavilion."
Star Luo Pill Pavilion has always had the function of collecting spirit medicine. With a history of over a hundred years, Star Luo Pill Pavilion has access to a wide range of spiritual Medicine Peddler that individual Alchemist cannot match.
However, this function is generally only available to Alchemist at the level of Star Luo Pill Pavilion Manager.
As Disciple of True Man He, Su Bai naturally enjoys the same treatment as other directors.
When he needs to purchase special Spirit Medicine Ingredients, he reports the name of the spirit medicine, and the various channels of the Star Luo Pill Pavilion will keep an eye out for and collect the spirit medicine Su Bai.
If the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] is successfully refined, it can greatly slow down the time it takes for Su Bai to advance to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
Therefore, within a certain cost, Su Bai would gather all the necessary spirit medicine and refine them.
As for the fact that he is unable to refine Third-tier Spirit Pill due to his Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation, he can ask his Master to refine them for him in critical moments.
"Let's go to the Star Luo Pill Pavilion first, report the required spirit medicine, and collect them as soon as possible."
Su Bai immediately went to the Star Luo Pill Pavilion, found the director who was on duty Pill Pavilion, and purchased some spirit medicine.
Then, the remaining market segments that are currently unavailable and require collection should be recorded, and the board members should be asked to keep an eye out for them.
The director of the Pill Pavilion also gave a specific timeframe. "Based on the pattern of these spirit medicine appearing on the market, except for the Profound Dome Bamboo, the rest of the spirit medicine should most likely be collected within six months. I will send you Transmit Message as soon as each batch of spirit medicine arrives, and you can then come with Spirit Stone to pay and collect it."
Su Bai cupped his hands in thanks, "Thank you for your trouble, Director."
"It's no big deal," the director replied.
He paused, then continued, "Furthermore, the Profound Dome Bamboo is a unique spiritual object from the Gaosong Spirit Plain, which is under the control of our Heavenly Star City. You can post Bounty Mission on the Black Market for the Profound Dome Bamboo."
"Many independent cultivators from Heavenly Star City go to Gaosong Spirit Plain to Demon Hunting and search for treasures. The more bounties are offered, the greater the probability of finding the Profound Dome Bamboo."
Su Bai was slightly surprised. "Oh? The Profound Dome Bamboo is actually a unique spiritual object of the Gaosong Spirit Plain."
However, this is understandable, as the Ying Family is an indigenous Lineage near Heavenly Star City, and the Pill Formula created by the Lineage naturally use local spiritual materials as raw materials.
Perhaps a thousand years ago, when the Alchemy Grandmaster of the Ying Family developed this Pill Formula, the Profound Dome Bamboo on Gaosong Spirit Plain was as plentiful as hairs on a cow.
Nowadays, Profound Dome Bamboo is almost extinct, and the Ying Family's [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] Pill Formula has also fallen into obscurity, which is not without reason.
"Thank you for the reminder, Director. I will keep an eye out for the relevant channels." Su Bai bowed in thanks and then left the Pill Pavilion.
"I was originally thinking that if I really couldn't find it, I would make another trip to Demon Star City, but if the Profound Dome Bamboo is a unique spiritual object of Gaosong Spirit Plain, then I'm afraid it can't be found in Demon Star City either."
"Posting a bounty on the Black Market is one way."
"If that's the case, then the time required to gather all the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] cannot be determined."
This gave Su Bai quite a headache. He had originally planned to gather all the Spirit Medicine Ingredients for the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] within six months and successfully refine it.
Thus, at the age of twenty-eight, he was able to successfully advance to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
It now seems that collecting all the [Profound Sky Breakthrough Pill] won't be so easy; the Profound Dome Bamboo is stuck in a crucial position.
After leaving Star Luo Pill Pavilion, Su Bai changed his clothes and headed straight for the Black Market.
Since acquiring three high-grade Second-Tier Upper-Grade Lightning Attribute Law Technique, Su Bai has not visited the Black Market for quite some time.
The place was still bustling with activity, with Cultivator coming and going concealing their appearances, figures, and auras, like a masquerade ball where identities were hidden.
The spot where the cat-faced Cultivator had been standing has now been taken over by a Rabbit-Faced Female Cultivator who is selling some of the spirit medicine she has found.
However, they were all low-grade spirit medicine, and Su Bai glanced at them a few times before looking away.
Soon, Su Bai arrived at the Black Market bounty post.
This is a bulletin board set up by the forces behind the Black Market, consisting of a Magic Array.
Many Cultivator come and go here, accepting or issuing Bounty Mission.
There are no special requirements for posting Bounty Mission here; you can simply spend Spirit Stone to post information on your own.
Ten Spirit Stone can keep the bounty information up for a week.
Su Bai directly invested one hundred Spirit Stone.
He then drafted a brief bounty notice: a bounty of double the market price for the purchase of Fifth Rank Profound Dome Bamboo.
After thinking for a moment, Su Bai spent another hundred Spirit Stone to place the bounty notice at the top of the bulletin board, making the font bolder and wider.
After assigning the Bounty Mission, Su Bai stepped back a few paces and checked the bulletin board.
Yes, that's good. The bounty information is very eye-catching; it'll be seen at a glance!
If anyone finds the Profound Dome Bamboo, they will leave their contact information under Su Bai's bounty notice.
Su Bai only needs to periodically check the Black Market bulletin board to see if anyone has left any information.
If you are not afraid of revealing your identity, you can also leave Transmit Message.
This Black Market bounty was a normal bounty for spirit medicine, which was consistent with Su Bai's current identity Alchemist. Therefore, Su Bai left Transmit Message base point with the aura of Miniature Pill Furnace under the bounty information.
In this way, even if one is at Number Nine Pill Shop, one can receive information about the Profound Dome Bamboo from the Black Market bounty immediately.
Simply come back periodically to recharge your Spirit Stone and keep the bounty notices up.
"Look! Fifth Rank Profound Dome Bamboo! Double the market price! This Bounty Mission isn't too dangerous, perfect for independent cultivators to try their luck! If they find it, their cultivation will be worry-free for the rest of their lives!"
"No danger? Bullshit! Profound Dome Bamboo is Fifth-tier Spirit Medicine. Do you think it wasn't protected by powerful Demon Beast after it was born?"
Su Bai's Bounty Mission caused a minor stir on the bulletin board.
Some Cultivator, after understanding the mission, quietly left, probably to retrieve the Profound Dome Bamboo from Gaosong Spirit Plain.
The amount of Spirit Stone Spirit Stone can be obtained, which is twice the market value of Fifth-tier Spirit Medicine, is undoubtedly extremely tempting for ordinary rogue cultivators.
After setting up the bounty, Su Bai lingered at the scene for a while before temporarily leaving the Black Market.
