Chapter 25: Chapter 18 Sending Wealth Boy_2

The hammer-shaped magic artifact is a lower-grade offensive weapon. After refining it, it can be enlarged and reduced in size, with a formidable attacking power, although it’s a bit slow in speed.

The rope magic artifact is a middle-grade one. After refinement, it can be manipulated to entangle and bind opponents.

Such special magic artifacts are quite expensive!

This rope magic artifact should be the most valuable item the two of them have.

Xu Mu is planning to keep it for himself, and he even gave it a name, “Immortal-binding Rope”.

Binding immortals might be a bit unrealistic, but it should work decently against ordinary Qi cultivators.

The two sets of willow leaf flying knives are lower-grade magic artifacts, but since they come in sets, their prices should be quite more than that of regular lower-grade artifacts.

Each set has six knives, wholly emerald green, as if they were carved from jade.

Depending on the cultivator’s skill level, a varying number of these flying knives can be controlled.

These are likely used in cooperation between the two brothers. Releasing twelve flying knives simultaneously can form a knife array. With the two likely having a mutual understanding and working together, the power is definitely astonishing.

Xu Mu kept one set and planned to give it to Ye Yingying for defense. The other set is planned to be sold.

The fire-controlling skill that Xu Mu uses to casually form flying knives is much more powerful than this. There’s no need for him to keep it gathering dust.

Facing the magic artifact gifted by Xu Mu, Ye Yingying was naturally overjoyed. She’s never received such a precious gift. That night, she was unusually proactive.

As a result, Xu Mu, who’s getting on in years, could barely walk the next day!

It was like taking advantage of elderly people!

Thankfully, he remained disciplined and didn’t end up hurting anyone.

“It seems that I can’t let go of the Thunderbolt Sword Skill, after all!”

After all, the body is the capital of revolution. Without a good body, how can one educate the young in the future?

“However, after Ye Yingying gave birth to Little Ling’er, her charm has diminished a little! There’s a little regret in that!”

Having sorted out the loot, Xu Mu spent the following days refining pills until all the materials were used up.

In the end, he successfully created three hundred sixty-one Qi Gathering Pills and fifty-four Jade Marrow Pills, among which 90% of the Qi Gathering Pills were of high-grade, and the remaining 10% were all top-grade.

As for the Jade Marrow Pills, most of them were lower-grade, a small portion was middle-grade, and none were of high-grade. Thankfully, the remaining five lots of materials were all successfully refined.

Originally, it would have been quite difficult to successfully refine all of the Jade Marrow Pills with his proficiency in the Alchemy Skill, but due to the dual breakthrough in his cultivation level and fire-controlling skill, the success rate greatly increased.

Even the refining efficiency has improved.

What initially required two days and one night now takes only one day and night.

The production rate of the Qi Gathering Pills has even reached two batches per day.

Stepping out of his home.

There was a blanket of white everywhere.

The first snowfall of White Stone City had already lasted three days!

Xu Mu, dressed in the cotton clothes sewn for him by his wife, walked towards the market while stepping on the squeaky snow.

Perhaps due to the arrival of winter, the battle between the Clear River Sword Sect and Soul Forging Sect seemed to ease, and the marketplace was not as bustling as before.

“Friend Xu, have you refined the Jade Marrow Pills?!”

Upon seeing the Jade Marrow Pills that Xu Mu took out, Su Qing, who still looked appealing despite being covered in thick cotton clothes, exclaimed in surprise.

“I got lucky and managed to refine two bottles only! However, the quality is a bit poor and all of them are lower-grade!” Xu Mu said modestly.

As for the middle-grade Jade Marrow Pills he refined, of course, they were kept for himself and his wife, and could also be used to disguise his actual abilities.

With the consumption of many middle-grade Jade Marrow Pills, Ye Yingying has already broken through to the second tier of Qi cultivation, and she was much stronger compared to Xu Mu when he first started.

However, when she counted the number of pills she had taken over the past few months and only then managed to break through the second layer of Qi Cultivation, her talent left much to be desired.

“Even if it’s lower-grade, it’s still incredible. Congratulations!”

Su Qing was overjoyed.

Since Xu Mu’s alchemy skills were improving, the pills he sold were getting better, and thus her commission would naturally increase.

“I just happened to break through in my cultivation and gained some insight. I can’t guarantee the same result next time!”

Usually, cultivators experience a burst of inspiration right after breaking through, which speeds up their improvements in various aspects.

Of course, even a burst of inspiration could not compare to the system.

He said this only to avoid standing out too much.

“So that’s it! No wonder you look so much younger!”

Su Qing didn’t mind.

If one could succeed once, one could succeed twice. As long as he could stabilize his success, it would be a constant source of income.

The Jade Marrow Pill was a tier two pill!

The earnings she could make from Xu Mu alone in the future would be enough for her to live a lavish lifestyle.

This relationship must be maintained!

This time, without Xu Mu asking, she informed him of everything she knew.

When Xu Mu left the Song Family Pharmacy, he had fifteen sets of herbs for refining the Jade Marrow Pill and twenty sets for refining the Qi Gathering Pill.

The price of Jade Marrow Pill had also increased significantly recently. Just three bottles of lower-grade Jade Marrow Pill were sold for three hundred fifty lower-grade Spirit Stones. The profit margin was so huge that Xu Mu wished he could refine Jade Marrow Pills every day.

Of course, this was just a thought. If he really started producing Jade Marrow Pills in large quantities with his current strength, it might attract unnecessary trouble.

As for the Qi Gathering Pill, Xu Mu did not sell it at the Song Family Pharmacy.

He planned to sell it to Shopkeeper Tu at the Snow Lotus Pharmacy.

He did this out of both old affection and because the Song Family Pharmacy’s price was too low. If he sold it at the Snow Lotus Pharmacy, he was confident that he could negotiate the price up to ninety percent, without any contractual limitations.

Though he hadn’t tested his limits last time in the Baihe Forest, he effortlessly defeated the Brothers of Li Family. Based on his own strength, Xu Mu thought he wouldn’t have any problems dealing with a couple average mid-stage Qi cultivators.

With such strength, selling large amounts of Qi Gathering Pills shouldn’t be a problem. If he caught someone’s eye, he might even make a quick buck.

On his way to the Snow Lotus Pharmacy, he stopped at a shop that buys Magic Artifacts, where he sold two damaged defensive Magic Artifacts, a hammer attack Magic Artifact, and a set of willow leaf flying daggers. All of these were exchanged for two lower-grade defensive Magic Artifacts.

One of them was a bracelet made of Blue Marrow Cold Jade, which not only emitted protective light during danger but also gradually improved the cultivator’s constitution when worn for a long time.

This bracelet was considered top-notch among lower-grade defensive Magic Artifacts, its price nearly caught up with the middle-grade ones.

The other was a Heart Protecting Mirror made of Purple Essence Copper.

The bracelet was naturally for his wife, while the Heart-Protecting Mirror was for himself.

Originally, he wanted to buy a robe, but he thought living in the shantytown wearing a robe would be too eye-catching. So, after much consideration, he decided to buy defensive Magic Artifacts instead.

“Speaking of that, with my current situation, should I move back to the Marketplace?”

As he was contemplating whether to move back, he was already at the Snow Lotus Pharmacy.

Just then, an elegant woman in a green robe, wearing a bun of coiled snakes, with a dignified appearance and a slight frown, walked out of the pharmacy.

The two ran into each other head-on!

Upon seeing Xu Mu, the woman in the green robe couldn’t help expressing surprise on her pretty face.

“Oh? Friend Xu! It’s been a long time!”
