"Hehe, sir, there's no need to be surprised. The Formation Plate are forged from Spirit Stone. Although they look ordinary, the energy they contain is no less than the Dou Qi possessed by some ordinary Half-Emperor. However, the Formation Plate here are just ordinary items. Although their defensive power is terrifying, they can only be used once. After that, they will become a pile of junk."
Just as Xiao Yan was surprised by the terrifying defensive power of the Formation Plate in front of him, the beautiful woman beside him casually retrieved the Formation Plate that was floating in front of Xiao Yan.
Then, with a flick of her jade-like hand, another Formation Plate floated in the void in front of Xiao Yan.
"Similar to Dou Technique, Formation Plate Formation Plate be categorized into defensive and offensive types. There are also composite Formation Plate Formation Plate combine both, Formation Plate both offensive and defensive capabilities."
Xiao Yan nodded slightly. He had already witnessed this when he fought Mu Han.
After speaking, the beautiful woman flicked her finger, and the black Formation Plate in front of Xiao Yan immediately shot out beams of golden light.
Each ray of golden light was about an inch long and half the thickness of a thumb; of course, this was only because the formation was not fully deployed.
After a dozen or Formation Plate around the Formation Plate, they hovered above Formation Plate like small swords, slowly circling.
"This kind of formation is an offensive formation. As for its effectiveness, I won't elaborate. I'm afraid it wouldn't meet your standards, sir. Hehehehe..."
At the end of her words, the beautiful woman gave Xiao Yan a meaningful, alluring look, which he quickly looked away from the moment their eyes met.
Faced with the allure of a Dou Di expert, Xiao Yan dared not be careless in the slightest. After a helpless wry smile, Xiao Yan looked up again, his gaze quickly sweeping over the beautiful woman's alluring body, finally settling on her red, almost dripping lips, and said:
"Since the shopkeeper has already mentioned the first two, why don't you also talk about the third one? It would be good for me to broaden my horizons."
Xiao Yan wasn't interested in formations. He only asked these questions to gain a basic understanding of them, so that he wouldn't be helpless when he encountered formation masters who specialized in them in the future.
"Hehe... Sir, you always call me 'Master, Master,' it sounds rather formal. I am Jin Yao, please just call me by my name. As for the complex formation, you can only see it on the second floor. If you have time, sir, I wouldn't mind explaining it to you more."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Kinbo!"
Xiao Yan bowed respectfully and said with a smile.
Seeing this, Jin Yao smiled and returned Xiao Yan's greeting, then her beautiful eyes flickered, and she asked again:
"By the way, sir, you've come to my Thousand Medicine Pavilion for more than just the Formation Plate, haven't you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression faltered slightly, but then quickly transformed into a smile. He nodded and said:
"Hehe, Master Jin is right. I did not come to the Thousand Medicine Pavilion this time for the formation. The main reason is that I need to refine two pills, and I haven't collected all the medicinal materials yet, so I thought I'd try my luck. If I can find them, that would be great; if not, it's alright."
As he said this, Xiao Yan and Jin Yao had already started walking slowly towards the second floor.
While examining the Formation Plate, Xiao Yan had already searched the counters where medicinal herbs were displayed, but he did not find the herbs Xiao Yan needed, which made him a little disappointed. However, Jin Yao's words at this moment rekindled a burning desire in Xiao Yan's heart.
As Xiao Yan and Jin Yao walked one after the other towards the second floor, Murong Qianqian, who was behind them, had a sullen look on her pretty face. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Jin Yao, and a strange expression appeared in her bright eyes.
As a Dou Di expert, Jin Yao naturally noticed the hostility in Murong Qianqian's eyes. However, she was also well aware of the reason behind it. She smiled slightly and ignored it, chatting and laughing with Xiao Yan as they headed upstairs.
Upon reaching the second floor, the space was somewhat smaller than the main hall on the first floor. Several large partitioned areas divided the entire second floor, each dedicated to selling its own goods.
Led by Jin Yao, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan Jin Yao turned through several long corridors, and soon, a separate hall with the word "medicine" written on a plaque appeared in front of them.
"Hehe, sir, this place specializes in selling rare medicinal herbs. And I can say without any hesitation that everything sold in our pharmacy is absolutely top-quality. If we can't produce something, I believe no other force in Yan City could possibly offer it."
Jin Yao chuckled, but her words were full of confidence.
"Hehe, since that's the case, it seems my trip won't be in vain. Please lead the way, Master Jin!"
Xiao Yan smiled, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Jin Yao, and said.
The two stepped into the next hall, while Murong Qianqian wandered around the other parts of the second floor at will. With Xiao Yan's Spiritual Strength following her at all times, it did not cause any trouble.
Upon entering the adjacent hall, the first thing that catches the eye is a strange tree that is two zhang tall (approximately 6.6 meters).
At first glance, the tree looks like an open fan, and even its leaves are shaped like fans. The lush green leaves reflect a verdant, shimmering light in the brightly lit room, as if the whole tree is radiating light, making one's heart stir at first glance.
"Oh? Thousand-Fan Tree!"
Upon seeing this tree, Xiao Yan couldn't help but show a look of surprise. He never expected to see such a strange tree here.
" The Thousand-Fan Tree, it is said that each of its leaves takes ten years to grow, but judging from the appearance of this tree, it must be at least close to a thousand years old!"
"Hehe, sir, you are indeed an expert in alchemy. The Thousand-Fan Tree in my medicine shop is indeed over a thousand years old. Unfortunately, it withered and died a few years ago, and no matter how hard we try, we cannot revive it..."
As she finished speaking, even Jin Yao's pretty face couldn't help but show a hint of regret. Clearly, she also valued this Thousand-Fan Tree very much.
The fact that this tree was valued by a Dou Di- level expert makes its worth quite evident.
"I originally intended to cherish this Thousand-Fan Tree as the shop's prized possession, but since the tree is now dead, I can only place it here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded slightly. The leaves of the Thousand-Fan Tree are highly valuable medicinal materials, especially those thousand-year-old fan leaves that have accompanied the growth of the Thousand-Fan Tree. These are priceless treasures and something that many alchemists yearn for.
However, now that the tree is dead, its thousand-year-old fan-shaped leaves are only a few pieces, which has significantly reduced the tree's value. No wonder Jin Yao feels so sorry for it.
However, as Xiao Yan's eyes darted around, a thought flickered in his mind. He was currently in dire need of medicinal pills; he wondered if this Thousand-Fan Tree might bring him some pleasant surprises...
"Hehe, Master Jin, there's no need to feel so sorry. I think I might have a way to help you bring this Thousand-Fan Tree back to life."
Xiao Yan raised his gaze, looked at Jin Yao who was standing to the side with a regretful expression, and slowly smiled, saying softly.
As Xiao Yan finished speaking, Jin Yao's expression changed slightly. She raised her beautiful eyes to look at Xiao Yan, as if to confirm whether she had misheard.
You know, she personally took action to revive the Thousand-Fan Tree Thousand-Fan Tree, but it still couldn't escape death in the end. So where does Xiao Yan get his confidence from?!
Seeing this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly and didn't say anything. He simply extended a finger, and with a thought, a small flame the size of a fingertip appeared on Xiao Yan fingertip.
Upon seeing the wisp of flame, Jin Yao's expression faltered for a moment, followed by an expression of disbelief.
After a long while, she finally couldn't help but exclaim in surprise to Xiao Yan:
"This is... Heavenly Flames... the Life Spirit Flame!"
