Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 106: Upgrading the Medicinal Recipe

Mowuji ignored the shock of the crowd, calmly took out his jade token, and walked through the crowd directly downstairs.

It wasn't until the moment he walked out the door and went downstairs that he heard a burst of laughter behind him. Then someone said, "He wouldn't have heard someone say that being able to cultivate in the Lightning Tempering Room is very impressive, so he deliberately came to the Lightning Tempering Room to shock people, right?"

"My eyeballs were indeed almost shocked out, haha..."

"Not only can he cultivate in the Lightning Tempering Room, but he has also cultivated for three hours, hehe."

"You don't need to say that, everyone knows that someone has been tempered in the Lightning Tempering Room for three hours. It's a pity that everyone knows that he was sitting on the side watching the lightning strikes in the Lightning Tempering Room. It is estimated that in the last hour, he was afraid of wasting too many spirit stones, so he simply stopped the lightning strikes in the Lightning Tempering Room. I really want to know how long he persisted in the Lightning Tempering Room..."

"If he knew that the lightning strikes in the Lightning Tempering Room could be seen from the outside when he stopped them, maybe he wouldn't be afraid of wasting those spirit stones."

"Don't worry about this person, I'm going in to temper myself now. Mi Yue, you just wait for me outside..."

……

Mowuji didn't care about these discussions at all. He recognized the magnetic voice in the last sentence, which was from the handsome young man who gave out three spirit stones. When he heard that he had been in the Lightning Tempering Room for more than three hours, he panicked and hurried to the first floor.

He only had a hundred spirit stones in total. After using them for more than three hours, how many spirit stones were left?

"I'm withdrawing from the cultivation room..." Mowuji nervously handed the jade token in his hand into the charging window.

The jade token was taken away, and after a while, thirty spirit stones were handed out from inside, "Cultivated for three and a half hours, consumed seventy low-grade spirit stones, leaving thirty..."

It was indeed more than three hours. Mowuji could only put away the thirty spirit stones.

Perhaps what he should be most worried about now is not the spirit stones being consumed, but the fact that he can only open up thirty-six meridians.

Returning to the North Water Inn, Mowuji quickly took out his alchemy equipment and began to refine the meridian opening potion. He still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, that is, his meridian opening potion was affected by the lightning strikes in the Lightning Tempering Room and lost its medicinal properties.

In just over half an hour, a bottle of meridian opening potion was refined by him. Mowuji poured it all into his mouth almost before the potion was bottled. As before, only his throat was slightly hot, and then the medicinal properties disappeared without a trace. The feeling of a fire line extending out was gone.

Mowuji sighed. It seemed that the meridian opening potion would indeed not work for him.

Mowuji did not choose to check out immediately and return to the Wuhang Sword Sect, but sat in the room and thought repeatedly. He was not lacking in fighting spirit, but he was just a mortal root. Without the meridian opening potion to open up the meridians, he was nothing. There were too many people smarter than him in this place. If he couldn't cultivate, then what could he do? Rely on his endless fighting spirit? Or rely on his indomitable nature?

These things are all jokes in the face of real strength. Both fighting spirit and temperament serve to enhance strength.

After thinking about it, the only thing he could surpass others was the meridian opening potion. Because this potion could open up one meridian after another, allowing his potential to be improved time and time again.

If he wanted to stand up in this place where immortals were everywhere, he had to continue to rely on the meridian opening potion. This meridian opening potion was something he accidentally obtained on Earth. It also referenced a incomplete prescription that he bought back at a high price. The aura on Earth was scarce and belonged to a Dharma-ending planet, and there were few spirit herbs. But now the place he was in had rich aura and mountains of spirit herbs.

Could he revise this meridian opening prescription and replace some of the ordinary medicinal materials with spirit herbs?

He was now a fourth-level meridian opener cultivator anyway, maybe ordinary medicinal potions were not enough to open up the meridians of a middle-stage meridian opening cultivator.

Thinking of this, Mowuji's spirits were lifted, and he quickly wrote the prescription for the meridian opening potion on paper.

The main ingredients of the meridian opening potion are: dragon saliva grass, variegated fruit, chicken blood vine, dark yellow ginseng, thousand-year-old pine tree veins, fire essence stone, night violet, hundred-year ganoderma...

Dragon saliva grass under ten years is ordinary medicinal material, ten to a hundred years is considered a precious medicinal material, and more than a hundred years is considered a first-grade spirit herb. Previously, the dragon saliva grass he chose was all under ten years. For the new prescription, he would choose those over a hundred years.

Variegated fruit was originally an ordinary medicinal material, and there was no saying of how many years it was, so there was no need to replace it.

Thousand-year-old pine tree veins can be replaced with ten-thousand-year-old pine tree veins, but ten-thousand-year-old pine tree veins are already considered a third-grade spirit herb and are difficult to obtain. Fire crystal stones also have good and bad grades. The best fire crystal stones have no spots at all and are as red as chicken blood. He only needed fire crystal stones for alchemy before and didn't care about the quality. The new prescription must also choose fire crystal stones without impurities.

Dark yellow ginseng and ganoderma must be selected for more than a thousand years. Only those over a thousand years can barely be called spirit herbs. The new prescription must choose those over a thousand years, and of course, the longer the year, the better.

It took Mowuji most of the day to revise the prescription. The prescription was not changed, only most of the medicinal materials were replaced with equivalent spirit herbs.

As for lotus root silk, Mowuji decided to use Treasure Blood Lotus Root. The Treasure Blood Lotus Root is a very good spirit herb and can definitely replace ordinary lotus root silk.

……

Border City, the most popular place is not the Pill Pavilion, nor the Artifact Pavilion, but the place where medicinal materials are traded. In Border City, the most popular place for medicinal material trading is not a business building, but a hall. This place is called the Border City Medicinal Material Trading Hall.

Everyone who comes to Border City trades medicinal materials here, or posts information seeking medicinal materials here.

After Mowuji came to the Medicinal Material Trading Hall, he almost thought he had returned to Earth again. This was simply a stock exchange, or a medicinal material exchange on Earth.

Large screens were hung on all sides of the hall, and these large screens constantly flashed medicinal material information. Either sales information or purchase information. The flow of people in the hall was even denser, with people constantly coming in and out, each carrying a large package. All kinds of medicinal material smells spread out, filling the entire hall with the smell of medicine.

In addition to these big brands, Mowuji also saw many handwritten signs hung everywhere. Without exception, these signs were all seeking a certain spirit grass, or selling a certain scarce spirit grass.

Mowuji needed a large number of spirit herbs, but he didn't know the price, and there were too many people here, so he simply spent five low-grade spirit stones at the hall's message release office to publish the part of the spirit herbs he needed. At the same time, he left his residence under the published message, and then went directly back to the inn to wait for news.

……

The five spirit stones for the message release fee was not cheap for Mowuji, but the five spirit stones were well spent.

In just one hour, several people came to the North Water Inn with the spirit herbs that Mowuji needed.

Mowuji originally planned to only buy one or two portions of spirit herbs and try them out first. But on the same day, he received more than a dozen requests for the spirit herbs he needed, and people kept coming to the North Water Inn to trade with him.

At first, he could buy them with spirit stones, but later on, he could only exchange them for pills. Fortunately, his pills were all first-grade human spirit pills that were urgently needed for cultivation, which were more precious to cultivators than spirit stones.

Fortunately, his purchase information was only for half a day, and Mowuji was finally quiet the next day. At this time, he had purchased more than thirty portions of spirit herbs, and the spirit stones he had left were all used up, and even a small half of his pills had been consumed.

To Mowuji's regret, he had purchased all the other spirit herbs, but he had not obtained the Treasure Blood Lotus Root.

Mowuji originally thought that the Treasure Blood Lotus Root could be cultivated in the Wuhang Sword Sect, so it would be the easiest to purchase. In fact, he just happened not to receive the Treasure Blood Lotus Root.

Mowuji specially went to some business buildings in Border City to ask, and only then did he find out that although the Treasure Blood Lotus Root was only a third-grade spirit herb, it was extremely valuable and could not be purchased at all.

Thinking that his residence, Lotus Root Sword Peak, was once the place where Elder Guan Li planted the Treasure Blood Lotus Root, Mowuji decided to go back and ask if there was a Treasure Blood Lotus Root in the Wuhang Sword Sect.
