Gangster Sister Zhu, Refining the Mini Gourd (5/5)
Xu Changqing left the Alchemy Tower with the seeds of the Moonlight Grass.
Bai Zhuer stayed behind, seemingly to learn Pill Formula techniques from Yu Caiqing.
Originally, Xu Changqing also wanted to see just how skilled this Advanced Alchemist was.
Unexpectedly, they refused outright, saying it wouldn't be allowed.
Ultimately, the two have only known each other for a short time and are not yet qualified to be together.
"Moonlight Grass, I remember it's a rare Spirit Plant that only grows at night. The stronger the moonlight, the faster it grows and the higher its quality." Xu Changqing had memorized the entire contents of the Myriad Records of Spirit Fields, so he hardly needed to look up any more information.
Knowing how to cultivate it, plus max-level Evergreen Formula, Max-Level Green Lotus Creation Art, and Green Lotus Domain.
Therefore, it doesn't take a month; it can be done in twenty days at most.
This could be a significant challenge for other Spirit Farmer.
But for Xu Changqing, it was no challenge at all.
Not long after, he returned to Chu Xiu's door and called out.
"Master Chu~"
Soon, the door opened, and Chu Xiu poked her head out. "It's you."
Xu Changqing immediately asked, "Is Senior Brother Zhang here?"
Chu Xiu shook her head and said, "He's no longer here; it seems he went back."
Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing turned to leave, saying, "Alright, sorry to bother you."
"Etc."
At this moment, Chu Xiu called out, then asked curiously, "Have you seen Senior Sister Yu?"
Xu Changqing nodded slightly. "Yes, I've already met Senior Sister Yu."
Chu Xiu eagerly pressed, "So... have we cooperated?"
Xu Changqing grinned. "Senior Sister Yu has given me a test. If I pass, we can cooperate long-term."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiu was greatly surprised. "Senior Sister Yu is Advanced Alchemist, how could you, a Spirit Farmer who has just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, possibly...?"
In fact, no one would believe this news.
Even Low-Grade Alchemist don't want to cooperate, so how could a more powerful Advanced Alchemist possibly agree?
Xu Changqing didn't offer any further explanation. "I'm busy, so I won't disturb Master Chu any longer."
Then, he summoned his mode of transportation, [Big-Leaf Grass].
The four enormous leaves began to spin rapidly, lifting the person off the ground and quickly disappearing into the distance.
Chu Xiu was surprised and doubtful upon seeing this, muttering, "Even Senior Sister Yu is willing to give us a chance to cooperate, could it be that we've misjudged them?"
On his way home, Xu Changqing happened to pass by Foundry Peak.
At that moment, a rumbling sound came from my ears.
He looked up and saw a burning fireball falling from above.
Good heavens, which blacksmith is littering again?
Suddenly, Xu Changqing had an idea. "I have a mutated Jade-Green Gourd in my hand, should I refine it into a storage item?"
The one I'm using now is the Small Storage Bag I was given to me when I first became a full-time employee.
Although there's more than one, the space is running out as we store more and more things. Since I have some free time now, I might as well go there on my way.
Who should we look for?
Of course, it's the blacksmith [Zhu Tong].
Admittedly, this person gives off a very creepy vibe.
However, there is not a single flaw in the forging and refining techniques.
After thinking it over, Xu Changqing took out the other party's Communication Talisman.
Who is it?
"Xu Changqing, I previously asked you to refine the Big-Leaf Grass!"
"Oh, it's you, brother! How's the Big-Leaf Grass going?"
"It's great, I'm very satisfied, your skills are truly amazing!"
"So what brings you here, sister?"
"I'd like to ask if you craft storage items?"
"What kind of storage item do you want to craft, brother?"
I have a Jade-Green Mini Gourd!
"This thing? I can make it, you go ahead!"
Xu Changqing cut off the communication and then controlled the Big-Leaf Grass to rise upwards.
Not long after, I saw Foundry Peak Plaza again, with nine arenas.
Although it was almost evening, the flow of people here was still very large.
Some fought one-on-one in the ring.
Some set up stalls under the ring.
Everywhere you look, there are formal disciple who have awakened different Spirit Root.
Xu Changqing didn't delay and walked directly towards the huge palace in front of him.
Just as he reached the door, he was stopped by a shirtless male apprentice with Metal Spiritual Root: "Fellow Daoist, do you have an appointment?"
Xu Changqing replied, "I just made an appointment with Expert Tier blacksmith Zhu Tong."
After he finished speaking, his expression turned strange.
Something about this statement feels off; something's off.
Metal Spiritual Root suddenly realized, "So you made an appointment with Sister Zhu!"
"Cough cough cough." Xu Changqing choked on his own saliva.
Metal Spiritual Root stepped aside with a half-smile, "Alright, I won't delay your business any longer."
Xu Changqing covered his face and walked towards Forge No. 17.
Since it was my second time here, I knew the place well.
The door was closed.
A clanging sound came from inside.
Snap snap snap~
Xu Changqing raised his right hand and pounded on the door frame a few times with a little force.
The room fell silent immediately, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching from afar.
If Xu Changqing hadn't been here once, he would have thought that what came through the door wasn't a person, but some terrifying beast.
The door creaked open, revealing a familiar pectoral muscle.
Zhu Tong looked down and greeted him with a smile, "Hey bro!"
Xu Changqing nodded awkwardly. "Sister, I'm here."
Zhu Tong waved his hand. "Then come in and talk."
Xu Changqing hesitated instinctively for a moment, but quickly stepped inside.
It's probably because it was just being forged; the internal temperature is a bit high.
The room was stuffy and hot.
Zhu Tong pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Brother, please sit wherever you like, make yourself at home."
Xu Changqing looked left and right, seeing only clutter, and couldn't bring himself to sit down. He chuckled dryly and said, "I'll just stand."
Zhu Tong didn't mind. He picked up a round wine vessel next to him, filled it with strong liquor, took a big gulp, burped, and asked, "Burp~ Brother, are you going to refine the Jade-Green Mini Gourd?"
Xu Changqing took the item out. "Yes."
Zhu Tong took it and examined it carefully. "The quality looks alright. If I were to refine it, it would take at least seven days, and the reward would be 80 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone."
Xu Changqing nodded slightly. "No problem."
The current market price is generally between 80 and 100 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.
Once this thing is successfully refined, it can be sold for 300 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.
He immediately took out 80 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone and handed them to the other party.
Zhu Tong, his eyes lighting up at the sight of money, chuckled and said, "Since you've taken such good care of me, I'll get you an extra Spirit Runes when you're refining it."
Xu Changqing's eyes lit up. "That's great!"
As we all know, the more Spirit Artifact a crafted Spirit Runes Law Artifact has, the more spiritual power it can withstand, and therefore the stronger its power, endurance, and defensive capabilities.
Zhu Tong slapped Xu Changqing on the shoulder, making him shrink back by at least twenty centimeters, then said loudly, "Brother, you can rest assured!!!"
