Chapter 171 Departure, the Ten Thousand Mountains

"By the way, Brother Han, if you need an Alchemist, I can have my Family introduce one to you," Zhao Feiyu said suddenly.

"Our Zhao Family has some connections in the capital and knows several powerful Alchemists. Although they aren't top-tier, their Alchemy techniques are quite good."

"Although the Myriad Medicine Pavilion also has Alchemists, their fees are extremely high."

Chu Han nodded and smiled, "The Myriad Medicine Pavilion did indeed introduce their Alchemists to me, but I've already contacted an Alchemist, so there's no need to trouble your Zhao Family."

Master Yao was personally introduced by the principal, and his level is definitely second to none in Longxia Country. Naturally, Chu Han didn't need to look for other Alchemists.

"Alright then, if you have any needs, feel free to contact me at any time," Zhao Feiyu said politely.

"Okay." Chu Han nodded.

After Zhao Feiyu left, Chu Han added the 12 types of medicinal Materials he needed to his shopping cart according to the dosages required by the Pill Formula.

He also looked for the three medicinal Materials: blood bait flower, dragon crystal grass, and star pattern fruit, and found that the Myriad Medicine Pavilion indeed didn't have them.

"I'll just buy these for now. Two fruits of life cost 8 billion; it's really expensive."

Chu Han felt a bit of a sting in his heart.

However, the thing he lacked least right now was money.

After he handed the list of 12 medicinal Materials to the clerk, just a moment later, an elderly but energetic figure quickly walked out from the inner hall.

This old man wore a specially made Star Alliance Deacon badge on his chest. His face was kind, yet he carried a steady aura. He was precisely Deacon Jin, who was in charge of high-level transactions at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

"It's actually Deacon Jin! Why did he come out personally?"

"Who is this young man? To be personally received by Deacon Jin, his background must not be simple!"

Many Martial Artists shopping for Materials nearby recognized Deacon Jin and lowered their voices to discuss, their eyes full of shock and curiosity.

One must know that Deacon Jin stayed in the inner hall year-round, only handling large transactions of over 10 billion or receiving distinguished customers. Ordinary Martial Artists found it difficult even to see him once, yet now he was giving such importance to a young man.

Deacon Jin walked straight to Chu Han, his face full of warm smiles, and said respectfully, "Sir, the medicinal Materials on your list are all rare and precious types, some even being the Myriad Medicine Pavilion's bottom-drawer stock. Are you sure you want to purchase all of these at once?"

"Of course," Chu Han said flatly, without any extra nonsense.

"Great! Mr. Chu is indeed extraordinary!" A flash of ecstasy crossed Deacon Jin's eyes, and he quickly made a gesture of invitation. "This way, please. Let's talk in detail in the VIP room. The transaction process for these Materials requires your personal confirmation."

Chu Han followed Deacon Jin through the noisy hall and entered the VIP room on the second floor.

The room was luxuriously decorated, with agarwood furniture emitting a faint fragrance. Top-tier Cloud Mist Tea was placed on the table, showing the Star Alliance's hospitality towards high-quality customers.

Deacon Jin personally poured tea for Chu Han, his attitude becoming even more polite. "Mr. Chu, among the Materials you want, three might take a bit of time to prepare, but the transaction can proceed first. Do you find that convenient?"

"No matter, I'm not in a hurry." Chu Han picked up the teacup and took a sip. The tea was mellow and refreshing, clearly a very expensive variety.

He suddenly remembered the B-grade gold card he had obtained at the Star Alliance branch in Tianyuan Province and asked casually, "By the way, I hold a Star Alliance B-grade gold card. According to the rules, I should be able to enjoy a 20% discount, right?"

As he spoke, he handed the gold card to Deacon Jin.

Deacon Jin took a look, a flash of realization crossing his eyes, and he quickly nodded. "So Mr. Chu is a high-quality customer of our Star Alliance. My apologies! A B-grade gold card indeed grants a 20% discount. Don't worry, I will apply the discount directly during the final settlement."

After saying that, Deacon Jin did some calculations and quickly arrived at the total price.

He looked at Chu Han and said with a hint of solemnity, "Mr. Chu, the 12 medicinal Materials you selected have an original price of 29.25 billion federal currency. After the 20% discount, the final total price is 23.4 billion federal currency."

"23.4 billion?" Chu Han's hand holding the teacup paused slightly, still surprised by the figure in his heart.

He had known that the cost of refining the green lotus pill was extremely high, but he hadn't expected these 12 auxiliary Materials alone to cost so much. This didn't even include the three core Materials needed from the wild, nor the 30-plus Materials provided by Master Yao.

But to Breakthrough his cultivation, this investment was clearly worth it. He immediately nodded, "Alright, let's settle the bill."

Chu Han completed the transfer directly through his exclusive Star Alliance account, and 23.4 billion federal currency was successfully deducted instantly.

Deacon Jin looked at the account arrival notification, the smile on his face becoming even more radiant.

At this moment, Chu Han suddenly remembered the resources he had extorted from Xiao Xuanjun and the many Cultivate Materials he had seized from Li Zhengtian's space ring. Among them were many lightning-type Cultivation Techniques and low-grade exotic beast essence blood that he couldn't use; keeping them would be a waste.

"Deacon Jin, I have a batch of idle Cultivate resources here that I'd like to consign at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion. Please take a look for me." With a thought, Chu Han took out a space ring and handed it over.

Deacon Jin took the ring and probed it with his Mental Energy, his pupils instantly shrinking in shock at the stock inside. "This is an S-grade lightning-type Cultivation Technique, thousand-year thunder spirit grass, several exotic beast inner cores, and so many High Grade Materials and Medicinal Pills?"

He quickly finished counting and said even more respectfully, "Mr. Chu, the quality of these resources is extremely high. I will calculate the price for you right now."

Ten minutes later, Deacon Jin returned with the calculation list, unable to hide the shock on his face. "Mr. Chu, the total value of these resources you consigned is 74.8 billion federal currency. Do you agree with this pricing?"

"It's fine," Chu Han had no objection.

For the next two hours, Chu Han waited quietly in the VIP room.

The staff at the Myriad Medicine Pavilion were extremely efficient, quickly processing the resources he consigned while allocating the 12 types of medicinal Materials he needed from the warehouse.

When the 74.8 billion arrived, Chu Han's account balance instantly soared.

After deducting the 23.4 billion for the Materials, combined with his previous remaining funds, the total was over 150 billion federal currency.

Not to mention that he still had High Grade energy stones, High Grade Medicinal Pills, and other Cultivate resources worth hundreds of billions on him, making him worth hundreds of billions.

At the same time, the 12 types of medicinal Materials he ordered were delivered neatly packed in a specially made storage box.

Chu Han counted them one by one, confirming that the quantity and quality of each medicinal material matched the list. He nodded with satisfaction and put them into his space ring.

Now, of the 40-plus Materials needed to refine the green lotus pill, only the last three were missing.

blood bait flower, dragon crystal grass, and star pattern fruit.

And these three could only be found by going to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

"Mr. Chu, your total consignment and purchase amount this time has exceeded 100 billion. According to Star Alliance rules, I have upgraded your B-grade gold card to an S-grade black gold card!"

Deacon Jin held a pitch-black card engraved with the Star Alliance emblem in both hands and handed it over, saying solemnly.

"Holding this S-grade black gold card, you can enjoy a 40% discount at any Star Alliance branch and have priority access to purchase rare resources! If you have any needs, feel free to contact me at any time."

Chu Han took the black gold card; it was cold to the touch and felt heavy.

He could feel the special energy contained within the card; it was clearly a high-level credential specially made by the Star Alliance.

"Thank you, Deacon Jin."

"You're too polite. It's my honor to serve Mr. Chu!" Deacon Jin smiled ear to ear, having already listed Chu Han as a top-tier customer who needed to be maintained as a priority.

A Martial Artist who possessed such wealth and resources at such a young age would surely have limitless achievements in the future. Building a good relationship now would be entirely beneficial for the Myriad Medicine Pavilion.

Chu Han put away the black gold card and Materials, then stood up to take his leave.

After returning to school, he made some preparations and took the night train to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
