Luck taken away? It doesn't matter, I quietly become a god

Chapter 476 Shushu's Online Pill Purchasing Service [Chapter with Images]

Buzhou Domain is the site of an ancient battlefield.

Because the battlefield bears excessive bloodshed and the annihilation of many high-level beings, the four energies of blood, killing intent, malevolent energy, and nightmare energy intertwine and have not dissipated for ten thousand years, distorting the spatial laws and forming a unique and desolate place, also known as the "Forbidden Zone of Life".

The spiritual energy of the land of desolation has long been polluted. If a cultivator accidentally absorbs it, their cultivation will be damaged at best, and their foundation will be destroyed at worst.

Therefore, any cultivator entering the Buzhou Domain needs to bring their own elixirs, rare and precious materials, etc., to replenish spiritual energy.

...Rong Shu learned all of this from Xuanhekou on the way.

"Senior Brother Xuanhe, since the Spirit-Severing Land cannot absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, does that mean we can't use things like Spirit Gathering Pills and Spirit Gathering Arrays?"

Xuanhe grinned: "Unless you want to explode and die."

Rong Shu: ...No, I don't want to. It's good to be alive.

The function of the Spirit Gathering Pill is to accelerate the speed at which cultivators absorb the spiritual energy of the surrounding world; it cannot directly replenish the spiritual energy of cultivators.

To directly replenish spiritual energy, one must refine higher-grade Spirit Recovery Pills and Five Elements Spirit Pills.

The Spirit Recovery Pill, a third-grade pill, is a common pill for cultivators to replenish their spiritual energy. However, the recovery speed is slow, and the spiritual energy contained in the pill is mixed with various attributes. Cultivators must also remove the spiritual energy that does not match their spiritual root attributes in order to fully absorb it.

The Spirit Recovery Pill is more expensive than the Spirit Gathering Pill, and its efficiency in restoring spiritual energy is also mediocre. Under normal circumstances, the Spirit Gathering Pill is more cost-effective.

After all, as long as one is not in a place as barren as Buzhou Domain, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is available for cultivators to absorb. If one wants to restore spiritual energy, one Spirit Gathering Pill is enough.

The Five Elements Elixir is a fifth-grade elixir that can be refined based on the different attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder to create elixirs containing specific spiritual energy. For cultivators with corresponding spiritual roots, the recovery effect is doubled.

But the effectiveness of elixirs also means they are expensive!

Even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator must be frugal and save a Five Elements Spirit Pill for a critical moment.

Coincidentally, Rong Shu had already learned how to refine these two popular pills that can directly restore spiritual energy.

Rong Shu probed his divine sense into the Han Chuan Qiankun Pearl and also communicated with the little white tiger inside: "Little White, help me pick out all the spiritual herbs that can be used to refine the Rejuvenation Pill and the Five Elements Pill. Pick out more Rejuvenation Pills, I need them."

The little white tiger replied, "Okay! Shushu!"

After Rong Shu told the little white tiger all the spiritual herbs needed to refine the pills, he had just withdrawn his divine sense when he heard Xuanhe's grumbling:

"The Spirit Replenishing Pill can only replenish a very small amount of spiritual energy. It's okay for ordinary Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators, but for us Nascent Soul cultivators, it's just a drop in the ocean. Junior Sister Rong Shu, you'd better prepare more Five Elements Spirit Pills..."

Rong Shu did not refute, but simply nodded.

In any case, she accepts all kinds of spiritual energy, regardless of its type. What others consider useless Spirit Recovery Pills are actually the most useful.

"Damn it! Why is the Five Elements Elixir a fifth-grade pill?! It's ridiculously expensive! The Alchemist Guild hasn't lowered the price in all these years." Xuanhe cursed.

Chen Xin, who had been silent the whole way, suddenly uttered in a cold voice: "Just a shrewd businessman!"

Rong Shu scratched his face awkwardly, "Um, the Alchemist Guild is managed by my fourth senior brother. I have an insider discount. Do you two senior brothers need it?"

Xuanhe's eyes lit up: "That's right! Cough cough cough... Junior Sister Rong Shu is so generous! Actually, the Alchemist Guild is quite good. It has always kept the market price of pills stable, and the increase is not much. It's simply a blessing for all cultivators in the Central Continent!"

"Useless!" Looking at Xuanhe's fawning face, Chenxin looked down on him even more and turned away from the two of them.

Xuanhe was completely unaffected and shamelessly said, "Junior Sister Rong Shu, when we reach the border, I'd like to ask you to help your senior brother buy some Five Elements Spirit Pills from the Alchemist Guild."

He handed a bag of spirit stones to Rong Shu.

What is success?

Is his spirit stone important?

Rong Shu took the storage bag. "Okay, Senior Brother Xuanhe, I'll make up the difference later."

Someone noticed what was happening and immediately came over.

"Junior Sister Rong Shu, could you also go to the Alchemist Guild to buy some Five Elements Elixirs for me?"

"And me! Junior Sister Rong Shu, if you have any spirit stones saved, you can take half as a running fee..."

In the blink of an eye, Rong Shu was surrounded by people and storage bags.

When she heard that there would be a fee for running errands, Rong Shu almost couldn't suppress her smile. She cleared her throat and said, "Senior brothers and sisters, please don't be so polite. This is my first time coming to Buzhou Domain with everyone, so I'll definitely need your help. It's just running an errand and wasting a little of my usual cultivation time. I'll take care of it!"

Upon hearing this, even more people gathered around.

"Junior Sister Rong Shu, please take care of mine too..."

"Junior sister, I need thirty bottles of Rejuvenation Pills and ten bottles of Five Elements Pills. Here's the delivery fee..."

"I want fifty bottles of Five Elements Elixir!"

"...Damn! Fifty bottles? Li Yang, you're taking this opportunity to hoard supplies! You bastard! Last month when I borrowed spirit stones from you, you said you'd spent them all!"

The scene was chaotic.

The hundred or so Nascent Soul stage cultivators who could easily intimidate a small sect if they stomped their feet outside are now scrambling to have Rong Shu buy Five Elements Spirit Pills for them, no different from the aunties and uncles arguing in the vegetable market.

Finally, Xuan Heng, who was lagging behind the group, noticed the situation and said with a half-smile, "...Oh, it's getting lively here?"

"You guys have so many spirit stones in your pockets? You should spar with me sometime, I'm short on spirit stones."

The bustling scene of daigou (personal shopping agents) suddenly fell silent!

The next second, everyone scattered! It was like they'd seen a ghost!

I'd never even bother arguing with a damn fortune teller like you!

Is it bad to be alive? Or is it that you have too many spirit stones and nowhere to spend them?

Get rid of all the filth!

Rong Shu, who was left standing there, was holding a huge pile of storage bags and looked innocently into Xuan Heng's eyes.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Xuan Heng lowered his gaze and stared at the large pile of storage bags.

Feeling increasingly guilty under the scrutiny, Rong Shu stammered, "...Ahem, senior brother, would you like me to do some shopping? I can give you a 30% discount."

The others who had fled but were eavesdropping: ...Wow! Junior sister! Awesome!
