Elixir is Toxic.

“Dan medicine can be bought like this?” Huang Feiyu was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. As expected, one still needs to be an alchemist!

Seeing Qin Ran walking away, he quickly threw out a spirit stone on the stall, then picked up the Ice Condensation Pellet and called out to Tian Wenjin to chase after him.

“Uncle Master, please wait.” Huang Feiyu caught up to Qin Ran and said, “If I were to buy this Ice Condensation Pellet myself, I'm afraid I would really have to spend five hundred spirit stones. Uncle Master is indeed amazing to have easily obtained it with just a few words.”

He reached into his Cosmic Bag and took out a cloth bag, handing it to Qin Ran, “Here are three hundred spirit stones, thank you Uncle Master for broadening my horizons.”

Qin Ran glanced obliquely at the cloth bag. The bag was bulging, making him itch with desire. He thought to himself that disciples nowadays are really fucking rich. But he maintained the image of an uncle master and did not reach out to take it. He only asked, “What sword art are you practicing?”

“Frost Sword Art,” Huang Feiyu replied. Seeing that Qin Ran did not take the spirit stones, he also did not insist. His hand shrank back, clutching the spirit stones in his hand instead of putting them directly into the Cosmic Bag.

“Frost Sword Art...” Qin Ran recalled it for a moment, remembering the special training requirements for practicing this sword art. He said, “If you are practicing the Frost Sword Art, I'm afraid the quality of this Ice Condensation Pellet is not enough.”

“What does Uncle Master think?” Huang Feiyu asked in a timely manner.

“This Ice Condensation Pellet cannot even be considered a low-grade pill. The duration of each pellet's effects will be very short, and the quality of the emitted cold chi will also be very low,” Qin Ran gave his own advice. “If you want to learn this sword art to a certain level, I suggest you find someone to specially refine Ice Condensation Pellets for you. You won't be able to buy suitable pills outside.”

Huang Feiyu was indeed not stupid. As soon as he heard this, he understood. Moreover, he had intended to get acquainted with Qin Ran from the beginning. He hurriedly climbed the pole and respectfully said, “I wonder if Uncle Master has time to help this junior with this favor?”

This person is sensible and tactful, Qin Ran praised inwardly. He spoke up, “I can take time to refine it for you, but you’ll have to find the raw materials yourself. Also, although refining this pill is simple, after all I have never refined it before, so I cannot guarantee a 100% success rate.”

Huang Feiyu understood that this was telling him to prepare more raw materials. He also agreed.

The three of them walked out of the market. Qin Ran looked back at Tian Wenjin and saw that the little girl still had an arrogant expression on her face. He thought for a moment and felt that he should give her some pointers. He asked, “Are you buying the Spirit Gathering Pellet for yourself or someone else to use?”

“Of course it’s for myself to use,” Tian Wenjin replied.

“Do you know what the Spirit Gathering Pellet is for?” Qin Ran asked again.

“To improve the cultivation level during Foundation Establishment,” Tian Wenjin wanted to roll her eyes. Did this person think she was an idiot in cultivation? Who doesn’t know that Spirit Gathering Pellets are used to improve cultivation?

“What is the quality of your spiritual root?” Qin Ran was not bothered and continued to ask.

“...Top-grade Thunder Spirit Root,” Tian Wenjin answered.

Sure enough, she is a peerless beauty, Qin Ran thought to himself. He said, “If you have a top-grade spirit root, then I suggest you do not use the Spirit Gathering Pellet.”

“Why?” Tian Wenjin asked. Spirit Gathering Pellets can improve cultivation! Why not use them? Everyone is using them!

“It’s not worth it...” Qin Ran felt that he was really patient and explained, “Or rather, pill toxins.”

Pill toxins? This was the first time Tian Wenjin had heard of this statement. She was suspicious that the pills Qin Ran refined were of poor quality, which was why they were toxic. But she did not refute Qin Ran's words, just felt indignant.

After walking along the market for a while, Qin Ran suddenly looked back again and sized up Tian Wenjin. He asked aloud, "Do you know how to make clothes?"

This so-called Dan Peak chief had looked back at her several times already. And now he was extremely disgustingly sizing her up. Tian Wenjin only felt the anger in her heart bubbling up. Hearing his vulgar chat-up line, she impatiently replied, "What girl doesn't know how to make clothes?"

Hmm, Qin Ran murmured, well, there was a girl at his home who didn't know how to make clothes.

"Then can you do me a favor and make two sets of clothes for me?" he requested, "I see your clothes are made very beautifully. Just use your style and make two sets for me."

Tian Wenjin was wearing a light blue gauze outer shirt, pure white silk lining, short sleeves with lace edges, and the skirt just short of her ankles. When the wind blew, the light blue outer shirt was like a blue butterfly fluttering and dancing, making her look youthful and vigorous, yet coldly enchanting.

Although she was beautiful herself, the bonus from the clothes was still objectively there.

"You want me to make clothes for you?" Tian Wenjin twisted her lips. She thought to herself, "How is that possible!"

But before she could open her mouth to refuse, Huang Feiyu next to her took the lead and agreed. He said repeatedly, "Okay, sure. I’ve heard that Sister Tian is extremely skilled in needlework, the clothes she makes are very beautiful, and will definitely not disappoint Uncle Master."

Tian Wenjin glanced at Huang Feiyu. This senior brother was the direct disciple of Sword Peak Chief Liu Boxian. The man was handsome, had a good personality, high cultivation, and was clearly interested in her. She thought about it and still did not speak out to contradict him.

"I don't know if Uncle Master wants it for himself or someone else?" Huang Feiyu asked again.

Qin Ran did not answer him, but looked at Tian Wenjin and asked, "Will you do it?"

Tian Wenjin did not want to do it, but Huang Feiyu secretly pulled her clothes again. She nodded.

"Okay..." Qin Ran took out a piece of paper from his Cosmic Bag and handed it to Tian Wenjin, "Just make it according to these measurements."

Tian Wenjin took it and saw that the body measurements were similar to hers, clearly clothes for a girl. She immediately understood that this was to make clothes for Li Shiyin.

She stealthily glanced at Qin Ran. Suddenly, a strange smell surfaced in her heart. When she carefully tasted it, it turned out to be sour.

So this is someone else's master?

Qin Ran rummaged in his Cosmic Bag and took out a thumb-sized porcelain bottle, which he also handed to Tian Wenjin. He said, "There are two Spirit Gathering Pellets in here, both above mid-grade quality. Consider it my payment to you, no need to buy them anymore."

Tian Wenjin took the porcelain bottle, pried open the jade seal and smelled it. The aroma of the pills was strong. The smell was pure and fragrant.

"It’s hard to buy Spirit Gathering Pellets of this quality on the market," seeing Tian Wenjin sniff the Spirit Gathering Pellets, Qin Ran advised once more, "Although I gave you Spirit Gathering Pellets, I still suggest you do not take them. It's not just during Foundation Establishment that you shouldn't take them, but rather, don't casually take any pills that increase cultivation unless absolutely necessary."

At this point, Qin Ran's words suddenly gained some credibility for some reason. Tian Wenjin silently nodded.

"Alright," Qin Ran finally said, "I just casually suggested it, you can just casually listen. Let's go buy some cloth now..."

Although the market was chaotic and small, it had everything. Good fabrics were also available.

After buying the cloth and some other things, Qin Ran wrote down the pill formula for the Ice Condensation Pellets and gave it to Huang Feiyu, asking him to prepare the medicinal materials himself. Then the three parted ways.

After parting, Qin Ran wandered around the market alone for a while longer, buying quite a few more things.

Finally, he also went to the Merit Transfer Hall to take a look.

It wasn't until the sun approached the western hills that he tidied up and hurried back to Dan Peak.
