Chapter 241 Joking About The Red Dragon
Chapter 241 Joking About The Red Dragon
Ordinary cultivators can accumulate enough resources for a year of cultivation, which would be depleted in just over two months when distributed among their wives and concubines.
This is also why low-level cultivators rarely take on Dao companions.
After all, it is quite difficult to earn enough money to supply oneself with the spiritual stones needed for cultivation.
But Lu Yu is different.
After all, he is a high-level craftsman, a fourth-grade pill refiner.
Just by selling the spirit beast pills he refines in three days, it is enough for his wives and concubines to buy cultivation resources for about half a year.
Moreover, the soul tools he casually refines can also earn him a considerable amount of spiritual stones.
In fact, even without the identity of a Tianji guest cultivator and the discounts for purchasing resources, Lu Yu can still create a good cultivation environment in Gongyue City based on his own abilities.
And this time, when purchasing cultivation resources, he did not go to the merit room to exchange for merit points.
Knowing that he will need a large number of merit points to purchase important cultivation techniques, spirit beast pills, and refining jade slips in the future, he has become more careful in using his merit points.
After resting in the room of the Qingyun Shop for a while.
He walked upstairs again.
Along the way, he saw the fourth and fifth floors.
This Qingyun Shop is ten stories high.
After reaching the fourth and fifth floors, the goods displayed there are mostly suitable for late Foundation Building or early Core Formation cultivators.
The sixth floor is completely dedicated to cultivation resources for Core Formation cultivators.
The closer to the stairs leading to the sixth floor, the more precious and rare the goods displayed are.
Naturally, the requirements for purchasing become more stringent.
The Heavenly Ginseng Essence Pill.
It requires more than a hundred ingredients, including the Innate Zero Ginseng, which needs the wind of ten thousand years as a medicinal catalyst.
As Lu Yu looked at the goods on the shelves, a delicate face with dimples on the corners of the lips appeared in his mind.
This is the miraculous pill that can solve Fairy Ni Shang's lifespan crisis.
Unlike ordinary methods of increasing lifespan directly, it returns the essence and energy that the cultivator has lost over the years through a process similar to rejuvenation.
Moreover, depending on the quality of the pill and the cultivator's absorption ability, the time returned can range from one hundred to two hundred years.
But such a miraculous pill has a fierce medicinal power and can only be refined by Core Formation cultivators.
In Poyun City, Lu Yu missed an opportunity to purchase it.
Now that he is in Gongyue City and there are no external threats, it is time to fulfill his promise to Fairy Ni Shang.
It has been almost a year since his cultivation was boosted by the Tianji Spirit Seal for the first time.
Whenever he thinks of the impulse that connects the beginning and the end, the gentle and warm feeling that follows, Lu Yu feels that this matter should not be delayed any longer.
However, the merit points required for this pill are indeed quite high.
Lu Yu found the female attendant who was guarding this floor and took out his identity jade slip.
After the female attendant verified it, she put the pill into a simple wooden box and handed it to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu felt the delicate texture of the wooden box in his palm and a mix of emotions in his heart.
Although this pill is not commonly available in the shop and he is not in a hurry to purchase it, Lu Yu feels a sense of relief after buying it.
His divine sense slightly penetrated the identity jade slip.
The messages left by Guan Yingying also entered Lu Yu's mind at this moment.
And there was not just one message.
Obviously, Guan Yingying has been trying to contact Lu Yu intermittently during the time he moved to Gongyue City.
"Fellow Daoist Guan, I have just moved to Gongyue City in Xingzhong Continent. I didn't pay attention to your messages before, please forgive me."
Compared to his previous indifferent attitude, Lu Yu's reply was quite polite and friendly.
He didn't want it to be like this either.
But after buying the pill, his merit points were running low.
And when he thought about the expensive auxiliary jade slips he would need to purchase for refining spirit beast pills in the future, he felt that it was necessary to find more ways to earn merit points.
And this Fellow Daoist Guan, who comes from Chaoyang Continent and not only holds a high position but also has a considerable value in merit points, will be his best way to earn merit points in the future.
But this time, Guan Yingying did not respond as quickly as before.
It wasn't until Lu Yu left Qingyun Shop and returned to his small residence that Guan Yingying's response finally came.
"Why did Fellow Daoist Lu move?"
"Did you encounter danger?"
"You can come to Chaoyang Island. Although there is often conflict between sects and intense competition for resources, there are still some peaceful places."
"If you can go to the Immortal City where the headquarters is located, there will be no danger."
The storage belt flashed with white light, and Lu Yu took out the identity jade slip.
After a moment of contemplation, he replied:
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist."
"Just recently, I moved here, and it still feels a bit fresh."
"If I want to go to Chaoyang Island, it will take some time."
"By the way, Fellow Daoist, you wanted to know about the female cultivator Red Dragon. Are you willing to pay some contribution points for this matter? Does it count?"
Guan Yingying's expression froze, and the white jade phoenix hairpin trembled slightly as she replied:
"Of course it counts. Fellow Daoist, are you willing to tell me how to deal with the restlessness during those few days each month?"
After sending the message, she anxiously waited for a long time.
She could tell that the alchemist's attitude had changed significantly in his words.
After thinking for a long time, she still couldn't figure out the reason.
The message took a long time to be transmitted.
After half an hour passed, there was still no understanding.
Just as she was about to retrieve the identity jade slip and start cultivating, Lu Yu's message finally arrived.
A hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes and seeped into her consciousness.
"Fellow Daoist Guan, can you transfer the contribution points first?"
Guan Yingying smiled slightly and used her consciousness to manipulate the identity jade slip to make the advance payment of the contribution points.
"The contribution points have been received. Next, please, Fellow Daoist Guan, swear to the Heavenly Dao with your Dao heart."
"No matter what secrets I tell you later, you are not allowed to spread them, and you are not allowed..."
Looking at the list of prohibitions, Guan Yingying felt speechless.
But she still replied one by one, swearing an oath.
And then.
While waiting for Lu Yu's response.
She couldn't help but think of the toy magical tool she had asked about before.
Her heart thumped suddenly.
But she couldn't wait and hurriedly asked:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, during those few days each month..."
Before she could finish her urging, Lu Yu's message came.
"Fellow Daoist Guan, I want to ask, are the few days you mentioned each month fixed within a month?"
Guan Yingying's expression became serious, and she cautiously replied:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, during my restless days each month, they are indeed around the same time each month."
"That kind of hot and tingling feeling makes it difficult for me to concentrate on cultivation."
"Even if I go out to relax and take some pills to gather qi and concentrate my mind, the discomfort is still hard to suppress."
"During these days, I always feel like I've become a different person..."
Guan Yingying quickly received a response.
"I don't know if Fellow Daoist Guan has heard of the female cultivator Red Dragon."
"Before slaying the Red Dragon, I used to experience abdominal pain, bleeding, and restlessness during those few days."
"I speculate that Fellow Daoist's few days are the days of the Red Dragon."
"Red Dragon?" Guan Yingying's expression immediately became nervous.
Could it be that she would be plagued by a condition called Red Dragon every month?
Or is it that she is inherently weak and has a congenital ailment, but her uncle and aunt have been too kind to tell her?
