Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill
Therefore, the number of stalls selling cubs is not large, and the prices vary widely, unlike the stable market price of Spirit Oil.
He also found out the effects of the Spirit Oil.
It is said that many years ago, someone discovered that the oil produced by these low-grade Snow Seed growing in this region, which is now called Spirit Oil by cultivators, could, when applied to the body, provide some protection against the severe cold and weak gales from the foot of the snow-capped mountains.
In other words, after using this Spirit Oil, they can get close to the snow mountain range, and even climb a short distance from the foot of the mountain.
However, this height is at most two or three hundred meters. Above that, the gale begins to become stronger, and relying solely on Spirit Oil is not very effective. But if a cultivator of a higher realm uses it in conjunction with their own Spiritual Power, the effect will be better than relying solely on Spiritual Power for protection.
Therefore, even high-level cultivators would not hesitate to spend money on Spirit Oil if they wanted to go up the mountain to explore.
After all, with the Spirit Oil, the time one can stay on the mountain can be increased, and the distance one can climb can also be increased.
However, it is impossible for those below the Spirit Transformation to safely cross the snow mountain range relying on Spiritual Power and Spirit Oil. This snow mountain range is not only continuous, but also awe-inspiring in its height, and the gale force on the ridge is said to be terrifying.
However, the reason why the Spirit Oil is so popular, and why so many cultivators brave the cold and strong winds to go up the mountain, is not because they covet the Mystic Ice Metal Iron. Of course, they would certainly try if they had the spare capacity, but that is not the main reason.
Their main purpose in going up the mountain was because a special Spirit Plant called Ice-Thorn Snow Lotus grew there.
This is an essential ingredient for refining several expensive elixirs.
Among them, the most famous are the Three-Turn Bone-Growing Pill, the Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill, and the Youth-Preserving Pill.
The Three-Turn Bone-Growing Pill cannot revive the dead or heal broken bones, but it can regenerate severed limbs. It can basically save people who have suffered serious injuries as long as they are not dead. For many low-level cultivators, it is a life-saving treasure.
The Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill is specifically designed to repair damaged Dantian. Even if the Dantian is completely destroyed, as long as there is even a tiny bit of the broken Dantian left, taking the Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill for a period of time can restore the Dantian.
Moreover, many cultivators use cultivation techniques of lower grade, which do not allow for smoother management of Spiritual Power. Over time, this can lead to hidden injuries in the Dantian.
Many cultivators who still have a chance to advance are unwilling to break through with these hidden injuries, so they save money to buy pills to repair them.
There is also a simplified version of this elixir, which is the Origin-Restoring Pill.
Ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill are far less effective than Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill, but they can still repair Dantian that has only been slightly damaged. Low-level cultivators generally choose ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill if their Dantian is not severely damaged, but only damaged to a certain extent. Although the treatment may take longer and the effect is not as fast as Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill, it is cheap.
A bottle of twenty ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill costs only two hundred Spirit Stone, while a single Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill costs one thousand Spirit Stone.
Minor problems like hidden injuries from cultivation can be resolved with a bottle of ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill.
It is said that initially there were no ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill, only Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill. Back then Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill were much more expensive. Later, a Alchemist specially developed the Pill Formula for ordinary Origin-Restoring Pill, which made it possible for many poorer low-level cultivators to afford pills to treat their Dantian.
As for Youth-Preserving Pill Youth Preservation Pill, there's not much to say about it. It's an evergreen elixir in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, a favorite among cultivators who want to maintain a youthful appearance forever.
Of the three pills, apart from the Youth-Preserving Pill, the other two were completely unheard of in the South Spirit Domain and North Spirit Domain, and of course, no Pill Formula would exist.
When Lin Xiao heard about the Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill, he immediately wondered if this pill would be effective for Liu Chun's sister's condition.
I'm not entirely sure about this; it's too far to verify back and forth.
Lin Xiao planned to try to obtain the Pill Formula for these two types of pills, then go and pick some Ice-Thorn Snow Lotus Ice-Thorn Snow Lotus, and see if he could bring some back to the sect to plant.
If we really can't get the Pill Formula, we'll have to spend Spirit Stone to buy some Nine-Turn Origin-Restoring Pill and take them back to Yuanling City for Liu Chun to try.
The blame will be placed on Liu Chun.
Keeping this in mind, Lin Xiao continued to ponder his herding business.
He bought all the dozen or so Snow Seed fowl sold at the market, including five Snow Pig, six Snow Sheep, and eight Snow Ox, spending a total of more than five thousand Spirit Stone.
On average, each cub costs less than 300 Spirit Stone, which is not expensive. This is mainly because some vendors are in a hurry to sell their cubs and offer low prices.
Lin Xiao used his Spiritual Power to drag a bunch of bamboo cages containing cubs out of the valley. After finding a secluded corner and confirming that no one was around, he put all the cubs into the system's special temporary living creature warehouse.
Having offspring isn't enough; we also need to solve their food problem.
Not seeing any pasture seedlings for sale at the valley market, Lin Xiao went back to the ranch gate to find the old monk.
The old monk seemed unsurprised by this; many novice herders did the same thing, excitedly buying a few cubs and then coming back to buy some grass seedlings, thinking they could raise the flock when they got back.
Little did they know that the herd needed to be released, otherwise, after a while, all the Snow Seed would become sick from being suffocated and eventually die.
However, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, where can ordinary cultivators find land where they can freely plant pasture and graze their livestock?
If you just pick any random place outside the city, well, that thing would be at risk of changing hands at any moment.
These ranches are basically only affordable for sects and large Lineage, but maintaining them requires specialized manpower. Moreover, these ranches have special properties, so other ordinary spiritual creatures cannot use them for grazing. Furthermore, although Spirit Oil is profitable, it cannot become a sect's main industry.
Moreover, the city lord of Wind and Snow City has already established a Wind and Snow Ranch. Whether it's out of courtesy to the city lord or for convenience, choosing Wind and Snow Ranch is more time-saving, labor-saving, and Spirit Stone- saving than setting up a separate ranch.
There's a reason why Wind and Snow Ranch has been able to operate for so many years.
However, the old monk would not be so kind as to offer special advice in these situations. He always believed in the principle of not getting involved in other people's karma. Everyone has their own destiny, and they should bear the consequences themselves, regardless of gains or losses.
The Wind and Snow Ranch has plenty of hay and seedlings, so it's naturally generous to sell hay and seedlings. Only a fool wouldn't take advantage of the Spirit Stone.
They don't sell grass seedlings at high prices, so even if we're talking about it, it's not fair to say they're ripping off beginners.
Lin Xiao bought enough to plant twenty acres of land and stored it in the system's private warehouse.
