Chapter 1474 Three Options For Pills

"For you, there are three pills I can make. The First is the Tiger Blood Immortal Pill, which is a more generic pill that is useful for nearly all body cultivators. It is also the cheapest and can be readily made.

The second is the Tri-essence fountain Immortal pill. This is something that needs three kinds of immortal essences to be made and is slightly more expensive than the former.

Then finally I have the Hundred Vicissitudes essence pill. It is the most expensive and complex pill to make." Alchemist Ruoxian informed.

"Tell me more about them and what are the requirements for them." Lin Mu couldn't make up his mind from just this.

Plus other than the Tiger Blood Immortal Pill, Lin Mu didn't know about the other two kinds of pills.

'There were some Tiger Blood immortal Pills on sale in one of the counters too if need by I can just get those, so I should probably focus on the other two.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

"The Tiger Blood Immortal Pills are made from Tiger Face Lilies. These flowers have a natural abundance of Immortal Essence and the pills made from them only make it better." Alchemist Ruoxian said.

Lin Mu simply nodded in response and gestured for the man to continue.

"The Tri-essence immortal pill, is like its name. It needs three types of immortal essences, whether they be elemental essences or a mix of attribute less immortal essence. The only requirement is that there are three of them.

For this, you can buy them from the Grand Sky Pavilion itself or even provide them yourself. Though the quality of the pills will also depend on the type of immortal essence provided." Alchemist Ruoxian said next.

Hearing this Lin Mu had a few ideas. For example, he had the Pure Wood Essence from the Wood Spirit Tulip, as well as the Ten Apertures Blood Vein flowers. Both of these could provide the said essences.

'We would still need one more type of essence though guess the immortal essence stones can be subst.i.tuted for it.' Lin Mu kept this in mind but didn't decide right away.

"And what about the final one?" He asked next.

"The Hundred Vicissitudes Immortal Pill is something that needs a rare ingredient along with several supporting ingredients. It needs a Hundred year old Essence Spring Stalact.i.te. This is the only ingredient that is not available in the Grand Sky Pavilion.

As for the pills' effects consuming one would be the same as cultivating for a hundred years. Hence its name."Alchemist Ruoxian said with a hint of helplessness.

It was clear that the last pill was something that even he couldn't do much about. Plus Lin Mu could also see a hint of desire in the man's eyes.

'Looks like he wants to make the Hundred Vicissitudes Immortal pill too' Lin Mu accurately grasped.

As for why the man wanted it, it didn't matter to Lin Mu. All it mattered was that their goals were aligning. He thought over the pills and reckoned that he should get the second and third pill.

"So, what have you decided?" Alchemist Ruoxian asked.

"I've decided on two. I'll take the Tri-essence immortal pill and provide the materials myself, that should reduce the cost right?" Lin Mu said first.

"Yes. The normal cost of Tri-essence immortal pills is about ten high grade immortal stones each. But if you are providing the ingredients, the cost will be about two high grade immortal stones." Alchemist Ruoxian replied.

"Very well. I'll do that then." Lin Mu stated.

"And the second pill?" The alchemist inquired.

"The Hundred Vicissitudes Immortal pill." Lin Mu answered.

Hearing this, a hint of joy appeared in the alchemist's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

"As I've said before, the pills is quite complex and expensive." Alchemist Ruoxian said slowly. "If you want one, it will cost 2000 High Grade Immortal stones."

Hearing this Lin Mu couldn't help but smile.

"Yes, but this is the cost without the materials, isn't that right?" Lin Mu asked.

"Indeed. For it, will have to go to the auction house and get the Hundred year old Essence Spring Stalact.i.te yourself." The man replied.

"I see but I'm not willing Alchemist Ruoxian." Lin Mu stated.

"Not willing?" The man raised a brow.

"Yes and I won't be paying the 2000 High grade Immortal stone price either." Lin Mu added.

"You surely joke, Daoist Mu Lin." Alchemist Ruoxian replied, feeling a bit uneasy.

"I am not." Lin Mu said in a calm tone. "I believe we can strike a bargain."

"A bargain? I'm afraid something like that is not possible in the Grand Sky Pavilion. Especially not for custom services like this." Alchemist Ruoxian declined.

"Yes that might be true. But if it is a private request I believe it can be done." Lin Mu said, looking straight into the man's eyes. "Especially if you are the one issuing the private request and hiring me." He stated.

"A private request? And why would I hire you?" The Alchemist tried to maintain his composure.

"So that you can get over your block of course." Lin Mu plainly said, unnerving the man. "The Hundred Vicissitudes Immortal pill you need it to become a high rank immortal Alchemist don't you?" he questioned.

"That" Alchemist Ruoxian felt uneasy despite his cultivation base.

After all, from what he could tell Lin Mu was both a body cultivator as well as Qi cultivator. And his attainments in both seemed to be equal. Thus even if they were only equivalent to that of the first Tribulation Immortal realm, Alchemist Ruoxian was not as na?ve to believe that was all.

As an alchemist that specialized in Body cultivation alchemical pills, he had dealt with more than his fair share of people. This allowed him to know just how strong they could be. Body cultivators in general were stronger than the average Qi cultivator, not to mention they weren't of a good temper often times.
