After entering Tianbao Trading Company, there is a wide street with many vendors on both sides, selling all kinds of strange and unusual items.
Lin Yu wandered around Tianbao Trading Company for a long time without finding the Heavenly Thunder Liquid, so he had no choice but to continue forward, hoping to try his luck at other auction houses within Tianbao Trading Company and find the Heavenly Thunder Liquid.
After walking around, Lin Yu discovered a Tianbao Pavilion on a street ahead. The Tianbao Pavilion was filled with all sorts of rare and precious treasures, all at exorbitant prices, beyond the reach of ordinary wealthy merchants.
This is a branch of Tianbao Pavilion. After Lin Yu entered, he saw two men and women in blue robes sitting behind the counter. One of them looked to be around twenty years old, with delicate features, a tall and slender figure, fair skin, and exquisite features. She was a beautiful and charming woman. The young man next to her, however, was somewhat lewd. When he saw Lin Yu coming over, his eyes revealed a sinister look.
The two men's attire was completely out of place in the Tianbao Pavilion, but judging from their clothes, they must be wealthy people; their clothes were definitely not those of ordinary people.
"Hey you two, I'd like to buy something. What do you think of this?"
Lin Yu glanced at the two young men and casually took out a ring.
"This is excellent, excellent, excellent! This ring is worth three thousand spirit stones." After Lin Yu handed the ring to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper looked at the ring in Lin Yu's hand and immediately praised it.
At this moment, the beautiful woman also walked over, glanced at the price tag on the ring, and a glint of greed flashed in her eyes.
This woman was exceptionally beautiful, with a stunning figure, especially her bright, expressive eyes; every smile and gesture was full of charm.
"What kind of item do you want to buy? Let me calculate it for you!"
The woman took the storage ring Lin Yu handed to the shopkeeper, glanced at it casually, and a greedy look flashed in her eyes. Then she picked up the storage ring and scanned it, wanting to carefully identify the material of the ring before she could give Lin Yu a price.
Lin Yu smiled slightly; he could naturally guess what the woman was thinking.
After retrieving the ring, Lin Yu immediately took out a pill, tossed it to the shopkeeper, and said, "I want to buy this pill."
The woman's cultivation level was only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage. She had already examined the pill; its grade wasn't very high, but it emitted a rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, clearly indicating that it was a superior pill.
"Oh, so you want to buy this? Hehe, you have good taste! This pill is an excellent tonic used to nourish Golden Core Realm martial artists. After taking it, it can rapidly improve their level. Moreover, this pill has considerable benefits for alchemists." The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Yu throw out a pill, and he said with a smile.
"A tonic?" Lin Yu was taken aback when he heard the shopkeeper's words.
"Yes, tonics," the shopkeeper nodded and said.
"But this is a tonic, not Heavenly Thunder Liquid," Lin Yu said with a smile. "Could it be that this pill can also be used to refine Heavenly Thunder Liquid? If that's the case, then Heavenly Thunder Liquid is too heaven-defying!"
As the name suggests, Heavenly Thunder Liquid is the raw material used to refine Heavenly Thunder Liquid. However, the method for refining Heavenly Thunder Liquid has been lost, and Heavenly Thunder Liquid only exists in legends.
"Of course not," the shopkeeper shook his head and chuckled. "Heavenly Thunder Liquid is an essential ingredient for refining Heavenly Thunder Pearls; this pill is merely an auxiliary ingredient for refining a Nascent Soul Tempering Pill."
"Refining Nascent Soul Pills? This herb is quite rare." Lin Yu smiled and said, "Could you sell me these pills? I'm willing to pay 20,000 spirit stones for one batch."
"Twenty thousand spirit stones?" A look of surprise flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes.
He had seen this pill in the market for only 300 spirit stones, but now, Lin Yu had increased the price tenfold to 20,000 spirit stones, which was no small sum.
Seeing Lin Yu's serious expression, which didn't seem like he was lying, the shopkeeper hesitated.
"I can tell you, the Heavenly Thunder Liquid is a liquid extracted from the Heavenly Thunder Pearl. This liquid contains enormous energy; once refined, it will boost your cultivation. Moreover, its medicinal effects are more than ten times better than the Heavenly Thunder Liquid itself. It's an excellent elixir. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself."
As the shopkeeper spoke, he reached out and grabbed Lin Yu's right arm, channeling his Spiritual Qi into Lin Yu's body.
This is a common detection method. If Lin Yu doesn't show any fluctuations in his cultivation level, then he won't be able to detect any problems with him.
But Lin Yu did not resist, and instead allowed the shopkeeper to probe him.
"Huh~" Soon, the shopkeeper released Lin Yu's arm and exclaimed in surprise, his eyes flashing with a strange light. Obviously, the shopkeeper also believed that Lin Yu did have an extraordinary ability to hide his cultivation level, but he just didn't find any fluctuations in Lin Yu's cultivation level.
At this moment, the woman in green also came over, looked at Lin Yu for a long time, and then frowned and said, "This pill is indeed very special. It's a pity you only bought this one." With that, she prepared to leave.
Lin Yu grabbed her arm and pulled her back, then said, "What? Do you think this pill is too expensive?"
"No, that's not what I meant," the woman blushed and quickly shook her head. "You know, while this pill is effective, it can only refine the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Refining it for Spirit Transformation is simply a pipe dream. So, I think it's better if you use it yourself. This pill can only help you condense three Nascent Souls at most; as for Spirit Transformation cultivators, I can't help you."
"You mean I'm not suitable for refining pills for the Spirit Transformation Realm?" Lin Yu frowned.
"That's right." The woman nodded. "Your aptitude is simply not qualified to refine pills for the Spirit Transformation Realm. Moreover, your cultivation level is only at the Qi Refining Realm, not even at the Golden Core Condensation stage. What qualifications do you have to refine pills for the Spirit Transformation Realm?"
"Oh?" Lin Yu frowned slightly upon hearing the woman's words. He could tell that she was telling the truth, but he was puzzled. If his cultivation level wasn't high enough to refine pills, why would this pill be kept here by the shopkeeper?
Moreover, the woman said that this pill could only refine the nascent soul of a Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm expert. What does that mean? It means that even if he possessed a Spirit Transformation Realm pill, he would still be unable to refine the nascent soul of a Spirit Transformation Realm expert.
