104: Mid-grade Foundation Building Pill
Gu Changan sat directly in front of him: "I originally wanted to buy some guyuan pills!"
"But your Maidservant said you don't sell them individually; only big customers are qualified to purchase them!"
"So I came up to ask, what Heaven And Earth Treasures do you have for sale here?"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon slowly picked up his teacup and took a sip.
"That depends on what Fellow Daoist wishes to buy?"
"Fellow Daoist also knows that we are currently in the Dharma-Ending Age!"
"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is thin, and various resources have long been exhausted!"
"Current Heaven And Earth Treasures are just some relatively common things that have become treasures due to their scarcity!"
"So, it depends on what Fellow Daoist needs?"
Gu Changan thought about it and realized it seemed to be the case.
"I don't have a specific requirement; I just wanted to buy guyuan pills and buy something else along with them."
"If I must be specific, then something with Five Elements attributes!"
"If you have any, you can bring them out for me to see!"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon leisurely set down his teacup and pondered for a moment.
"Does Fellow Daoist want the cheapest ones?"
"Even those will cost quite a few Spirit Stones!"
"Has Fellow Daoist brought enough Spirit Stones?"
Gu Changan, however, was calculating in his heart which item would be the most cost-effective to trade!
Various Magical Artifacts, Talismans, and Medicinal Pills were no longer worth much.
Buying a foundation establishment pill himself would cost over ten thousand Spirit Stones; Heaven And Earth Treasures would undoubtedly be even more expensive.
Perhaps they would cost hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones!
In that case, the only thing he could use for trade was a foundation establishment pill.
To duplicate a low-grade foundation establishment pill, it only took about a wisp of Orange Treasure Qi.
This was the best value for money. As for a top-grade foundation establishment pill, although it could be sold for a higher price...
...Gu Changan didn't want to seek death.
Ordinary top-grade pills were rare enough, let alone a top-grade foundation establishment pill.
For a low-grade foundation establishment pill, he estimated the Treasure Pavilion would buy it back for about 10,000 each.
So, what about a middle-grade foundation establishment pill?
Duplicating a middle-grade foundation establishment pill only required 3 wisps of Orange Treasure Qi!
The buyback price would probably be around 100,000 Spirit Stones!
After all, they were in high demand but low supply!
middle-grade foundation establishment pills should have been seen on the market; the occasional appearance of one would be considered normal.
Taking out two would be a bit eye-catching.
He just didn't know if it would be easy to leave later!
After a brief brainstorm, Gu Changan sank his mind into the treasure gathering basin and duplicated and upgraded two middle-grade foundation establishment pills.
Then, with a wave of his right hand over the table, an exquisite porcelain bottle appeared.
Gu Changan made a gesture of invitation and stopped speaking.
He then picked up his teacup and leisurely took a sip.
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon was somewhat uncertain; how valuable could a single pill bottle be?
He then set down his teacup, and with a pull from his left hand, the pill bottle flew into his grasp.
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon gently opened the bottle cap and swept his Divine Sense inside.
He cried out in shock: "A middle-grade foundation establishment pill?"
"Hiss!"
Then he brought it close to his nose and sniffed it.
"This is truly rare!"
"I have only heard of them, but never seen one!"
"Whenever they appear on the market, they are snatched up immediately!"
"Where did Fellow Daoist obtain this?"
Gu Changan kept a stoic face and didn't speak, staring intently at the other party.
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon felt a bit embarrassed: "I forgot! I forgot!"
"One does not ask the origin of a treasure!"
"I was simply too curious!"
"Fellow Daoist! Can you trade this middle-grade foundation establishment pill to me?"
"I am willing to pay 100,000 Spirit Stones!"
Gu Changan didn't expect the other party to have this intention.
"Does the Deacon have 100,000 Spirit Stones?"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon immediately waved his hand: "How could I have so many Spirit Stones!"
"I am collecting it for my Family!"
"The Spirit Stones spent will also belong to the Family!"
"Would Fellow Daoist care to consider it?"
Gu Changan asked back: "What if I want to buy Heaven And Earth Treasures?"
"Do you think it's reasonable for me, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, to take out a hundred thousand Spirit Stones?"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon also understood what was going on.
"How about this! I'll offer 120,000 Spirit Stones; Fellow Daoist, sell it to me!"
"Then whatever Heaven And Earth Treasure you want, I will pay for it!"
"However, a Heaven And Earth Treasure will probably cost around 200,000 Spirit Stones!"
"Does Fellow Daoist have more Spirit Stones?"
Gu Changan asked back: "Can I not have more foundation establishment pills?"
"Two middle-grade foundation establishment pills—can you handle that?"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon directly sucked in a breath of cold air; he didn't expect the other party to have another?
Then the other party's status must be incredibly noble!
Being able to get one middle-grade foundation establishment pill was a stroke of immense luck.
To get two middle-grade foundation establishment pills, there was only one possibility: the other party had an Alchemist behind them, or was related to one.
The Treasure Pavilion Deacon's voice became much more respectful: "Fellow Daoist! Trade them to me!"
"Two for 240,000 Spirit Stones!"
"Afterwards, I will gift Fellow Daoist a guyuan pill!"
As soon as he said this, the Treasure Pavilion's Deacon suddenly felt a bit surprised, his mind racing.
Since the other party had two middle-grade foundation establishment pills, why did he still want to buy guyuan pills?
It made no sense; with an Alchemist backing him, he shouldn't be unable to buy guyuan pills.
He could never have imagined that Gu Changan used the treasure gathering basin to duplicate them.
Gu Changan saw the flash of surprise in the other's eyes.
He also sensed the loophole and quickly tried to mend it.
"The pills were bestowed by two elders in my Family."
"When I left home, I wasn't yet a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but I succeeded in my Foundation Establishment while outside."
"I don't have any Foundation Establishment Stage pills on hand, so I came to the Treasure Pavilion to have a look!"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon nodded; this explanation was somewhat reasonable.
But, 240,000 Spirit Stones!
He really was reluctant to give them away~
He wondered if he could induce the other party to go to his Family for the trade?
And then, hehe!
"Fellow Daoist! Would you be willing to follow me to my Family?"
"As you know, I cannot possibly carry two or three hundred thousand Spirit Stones with me!"
The desire in the Treasure Pavilion Deacon's eyes could not be hidden.
Gu Changan also saw the other party's expectation and shook his head: "I'm afraid I must decline for now!"
"I only came to trade with the Treasure Pavilion!"
"As for the Family you mentioned?"
"Who knows if it's just a fictitious Family?"
Hearing Gu Changan's words, a flash of dissatisfaction first crossed the Deacon's eyes, blaming Gu Changan for not being cooperative.
Then a flash of greed appeared, along with a hint of malice.
The two looks alternated before finally settling into a calm expression.
"How about this, Fellow Daoist!"
"You continue your trade here!"
"I will have my Family bring the Spirit Stones over, how about it?"
"A difference of 20,000 Spirit Stones for each mid-grade qi gathering pill—won't you earn that?"
Gu Changan saw the malice in the other's eyes and knew the man had set his sights on him.
He no longer cared!
Whether it was the teleportation talisman, various Five Elements Escape Techniques, or the supreme grade hundred soul banner, they all gave him confidence.
Unless it was a Golden Core Old Ancestor, he had no fear of any Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
"I only came to buy things!"
"It's entirely up to you, Fellow Daoist!"
"Could Fellow Daoist bring out various Heaven And Earth Treasures for me to see?"
The Treasure Pavilion's Deacon nodded upon seeing Gu Changan agree.
He then went out and called an Attendant, whispering a few words to him.
The Attendant sprinted down the stairs like the wind.
