Chapter 141: Chapter 104 The Number One Expert! First-level Colossal Strength!_2
But immediately, the clerk shifted the topic and said:
"Of course, if you have the raw materials for refining the Blood Strengthening Pill, you can also ask Master Ge Qing to assist. Just two-tenths of the finished pills as the alchemy fee will suffice."
Gu Sheng immediately understood.
This was probably the true motive: ingeniously persuading others to have Pill Master Ge Qing refine pills, where two-tenths of the finished pills as the fee would be more profitable than selling the Blood Strengthening Pills themselves!
"The raw materials for Blood Strengthening Pills are so rare. Besides the Blood Strengthening Pill, is there any medicinal powder more effective than Blood Nourishing Powder?"
"There is indeed. After refining Blood Strengthening Pills, there are always some leftovers. These leftovers don’t meet the standard for pills but contain considerable medicinal power and can act as medicinal powder, called Strengthening Blood Powder."
Gu Sheng’s eyes lit up.
"What’s the value of this Strengthening Blood Powder?"
"Twenty-five taels of silver per portion."
The clerk shook his head and said.
"But I advise you to consider carefully; although the Strengthening Blood Powder’s efficacy is several times that of Blood Nourishing Powder, it doesn’t help much in breaking through bottlenecks. If possible, it’s best to save enough silver to buy the Blood Strengthening Pill for better value."
He could see that Gu Sheng probably didn’t have much money, but didn’t mind. Business thrives on long-term relationships, and no one knows if it might lead to big orders in the future, so the clerk was very friendly.
Gu Sheng nodded in understanding.
But inwardly, he sighed in relief. He had worried that after the Blood Nourishing Powder lost its efficacy, he would need the Blood Strengthening Pill for cultivation, which would be a huge expense for him. Knowing there’s this Strengthening Blood Powder gave him an alternative goal.
He planned to switch to Strengthening Blood Powder for cultivation once the Blood Nourishing Powder became ineffective, maximizing the use of his silver.
As for the Strengthening Blood Powder not helping with breakthrough bottlenecks, he didn’t care because he wasn’t relying on it for breakthroughs.
After purchasing a portion of Strengthening Blood Powder to compare its effects on cultivation, Gu Sheng took his leave.
The curiosity in his heart towards Pill Master Ge Qing deepened.
Master of alchemy, a considerable number of quality pills in Canghe County are made by him. The key is maintaining a low profile without drawing envy, indicating notable personal strength or background, such that even Liu Yuanhu and Zhao Honglie don’t dare to provoke him and instead treat him with respect.
Nevertheless, having an additional channel to purchase medicine is always good. freewebnøvel.com
In the black market.
Gu Sheng valued two functions the most: buying medicine and customizing weapons. Fortunately, he had left contact methods for both, but after some thought, he decided not to contact the weapon seller.
Currently, his arrows were sufficient, and there was no need to craft new weapons. It wasn’t necessary, and he could reach out if needed in the future.
...
Time quietly passed.
No one knew that Gu Sheng had quietly become the top expert in Gu’s Manor. In others’ minds, Gu Sheng was just becoming a Stone Skin Martial Artist.
Impressive in the eyes of ordinary people, but within the martial artist circle of Gu’s Manor, he was a mere transparent figure.
Gu Sheng rarely took the initiative to attend gatherings of martial artists within Gu’s Manor. Previously, he was afraid of exposing flaws; now, there was simply no need. Others privately considered him unsocial and even nicknamed him ’Martial Maniac.’
Because Gu Sheng was crazy about training day and night, many had heard about it.
They thought Gu Sheng lacked talent, trying to make up for it with hard work. But they figured he’d eventually hit a wall, as talent alone wouldn’t suffice to fulfill the clan elders’ wishes to marry a main family’s daughter, with no resources to support his efforts.
If hard work alone was enough, there wouldn’t be so many people stuck in the Refining Skin Realm, unable to advance.
Quite a few people were waiting to see Gu Sheng make a fool of himself.
But Gu Sheng didn’t mind.
In Gu’s Manor now, only Gu Erniu’s family concerned him, as they were the ones who offered help during his toughest times. Besides, there was Gu Xiaojiang, who treated him sincerely.
In his mind, Gu Sheng had a moral compass, distinguishing right from wrong clearly.
At this moment, he was diligently training in his own courtyard, undisturbed, and feeling comfortable and at ease.
In autumn, the wind carried a chill.
Gu Sheng bared his upper body, revealing strong muscles, practicing Iron Stone Fist with each move, as today was a crucial moment; just one step away from attaining a special effect!
The fist momentum in the courtyard was unpredictable.
Sometimes slow and steady like an old ox plowing the field; other times swift and fierce like a tiger pouncing on prey.
The transitions between movement and stillness were seamless, possessing a transcendent beauty.
If Gu Jingang saw this, he would undoubtedly be dumbfounded, as this realm would surpass even his long-coveted Perfect realm.
Even if the creator of the Iron Stone Fist were reborn, they might not surpass Gu Sheng in its mastery. Gu Sheng had already taken Iron Stone Fist to an unprecedented height, ready for another transformation.
Leaves were swept up by the fist wind, unknowingly beginning to dance along with Gu Sheng’s body.
Gu Sheng was completely immersed in the world of fist techniques.
His entire being seemed to transform into a massive rock, moving slowly yet suddenly leaping high, seamlessly integrating every move, with each punch reflecting several fist technique styles.
Who knows how much time passed.
Gu Sheng’s eyes shone brightly, and he had a sudden epiphany, throwing a punch that carried an intense sonic boom!
Note that this punch of Gu Sheng’s didn’t use Qi Blood Power for enhancement; just with the Iron Stone Fist and his physical strength alone, he could reach such a powerful level.
