The alchemist was truly grateful in his heart, and had to say that Daoist friend Yang was a generous person, who didn’t take advantage of his urgent situation and even offered him a highly favorable price.
So this alchemist was also very straightforward. After blocking the view, he secretly handed the spirit stones to Liang Sheng and happily took away the new pill refining furnace.
This couldn’t help but make the surrounding alchemists a bit impatient. Someone thought for a moment and came forward to ask Liang Sheng if he had any other pill furnaces, to which Liang Sheng naturally shook his head.
After half a day, the other two sets of array flags for nurturing arrays on Liang Sheng’s stall were also sold, and he didn’t stay any longer. He greeted a few loose cultivators around him and returned directly to his cave mansion.
During this time, he had basically figured out the situation in the Dan Ding Market. Compared to the previous Hua Tian Sect’s market, this place was much more peaceful.
After all, the majority of people here were alchemists, so although there were many people looking for opportunities in the mountains and forests outside the market, it was far less than the Hua Tian Sect’s market.
Given such a peaceful situation, disputes between scattered cultivators had also decreased a lot, and Liang Sheng increasingly felt that it was the right decision to come here.
After all, for him, his lifespan was long, and such an environment was most suitable for him to seek immortality peacefully.
However, after a few days, there came bad news – a Sixth Level Qi Training alchemist had been killed in an ambush while gathering spiritual grass in the wild.
For a short while, this news made the alchemists who were accustomed to peace become somewhat alarmed and jittery.
Alas, there were too many refugees from the Loose Cultivators who had brought their bad habits from before, but Liang Sheng understood this, after all, business with no capital investment was indeed the most profitable.
The stationed Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Dan Ding Sect Market naturally had no reaction to this, after all, it was just the death of a loose cultivator, which had nothing to do with them.
However, the loose alchemists in the market were somewhat apprehensive because they had rarely encountered such situations in the Dan Ding Sect Market over the years.
For a short time, they looked at the Loose Cultivators who had escaped with vigilance in their eyes, always feeling that these people seemed to be staring at them, not like good people, and plotting against them.
This also caused them some distress, because their spiritual fields were outside the market, and under such circumstances, they would inevitably have to go to their spiritual fields.
The situation in the market became somewhat bizarre for a while, but Liang Sheng remained calm and collected, as he was prepared for this after seeing the refugees from the Loose Cultivators.
After all, how could the Loose Cultivators, who were used to eating meat, easily turn to be vegetarian? And the pills in the Dan Ding Sect Market were so expensive, how could they not risk everything?
Afterward, many alchemists in Dan Ding Sect Market began to consciously link up with the alchemists near their spiritual fields, agreeing to take action together and never go out alone.
Under such circumstances, Liang Sheng’s business at this time was even better, because in addition to the pill furnaces, the demand for his offensive magical weapons also began to surge.
The shops of the Three Sects and Six Schools also made a lot of money at this time, making people sigh that it was only when safety was not guaranteed that these Loose Cultivators were more willing to spend spirit stones to protect their lives.
However, Liang Sheng could not be too ostentatious, so after selling three single-pattern longswords, he helplessly shook his head and told others that he had no stock left.
Although the Loose Cultivation Alchemists were regretful, they didn’t push Liang Sheng too hard, as after all, they were all Loose Cultivators. Who could possibly have that much inventory? They could only say that they came too late.
But if the Artifact Refiners didn’t have any magical weapons at hand, there would naturally be other alternatives, such as the demand for defensive talismans like Stealth Talisman and Vajra Talisman began to surge.
This made the Rune Cultivators in the market somewhat busy for a short time, as there were so many alchemists, and the demand was too large.
This chaotic situation lasted for quite a long time, until a coincidental situation occurred, which allowed the abnormal market to return to calm.
This also had to mention the alchemist who hired Huang Yifan. While other alchemists were desperately grabbing magical weapons to prepare defenses, he didn’t have this trouble.
Because he had found that the three brothers of Huang Yifan were easy to talk to, and upon promising to add more Qi Refining Pills, they became his temporary bodyguards.
They protected the alchemist when he went in and out of the market, ensuring his safety, and continued to irrigate the spiritual fields at other times.
Seeing that this method was effective, other alchemists naturally followed suit and sought reliable Loose Cultivators to protect them.
After offering a portion of their pills as bodyguard fees, the profession of a bodyguard emerged in the market, and the safety of the market was suddenly secured.
Under such circumstances, the Loose Cultivators who had fled to the market also began to rein in their thoughts, as even they were now hired as bodyguards by alchemists, and all they needed was to make a Heavenly Dao oath as a constraint.
In this way, their cultivation pills also had a guaranteed source, and the market suddenly became peaceful again.
As for the lives of low-level Loose Cultivators, there were no changes at all, as the profession of a bodyguard was unrelated to them.
All they could do now was to work hard to maintain their spiritual fields, obtain benefits, and once they saved enough Qi Refining Pills, they could hope to break through to the realm above the Qi Cultivation Fivefold..
