Chapter 1149: Attending the Exchange Conference (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
All the spiritual plants and decorations were meticulously organized by Jiang Chengxuan.
Back in his alchemy room, Jiang Chengxuan sorted through his resources, preparing for the upcoming exchange conference.
Among his most prized possessions was the Celestial Pill Compendium awarded by the system, filled with invaluable pill formulas and alchemical techniques.
However, these were not items he intended to trade.
Next were the celestial pills he had refined, such as the Celestial Dew Pill he crafted when he became a celestial alchemist at the Flying Immortal Alchemy Guild, and the Celestial Moon Pill he made during the entrance examination.
Both were highly sought-after celestial-grade pills within the Thousand Stars Immortal Domain Alchemy Guild. Even for celestial alchemists, refining celestial pills required considerable time and could not always guarantee success.
Therefore, celestial pills were always in high demand.
The Celestial Dew Pill was an exceptional auxiliary pill for cultivation. Consuming it enhanced the absorption rate of celestial energy for a thousand years, saving countless years of cultivation.
On the other hand, the Celestial Moon Pill was a miraculous healing pill, particularly effective for injuries to the primordial spirit.
Even if a cultivator’s primordial spirit was severely damaged, the Celestial Moon Pill could restore it to wholeness.
These two celestial pills were Jiang Chengxuan’s most valuable assets for trading at the conference. After securing them, he reviewed his current wealth.
Over the past millennium, he had accumulated a substantial amount of celestial crystals, totaling over ten million. While celestial crystals could buy many things, high-grade items were often priceless and hard to come by.
Thus, his celestial crystals were primarily for purchasing alchemical supplies and celestial herbs.
Aside from celestial pills, Jiang Chengxuan also had a variety of ninth-level pills he had refined.
Although he didn’t consider them particularly valuable, they were the main trading items at the exchange conference, given the large number of ninth-level alchemists in the Thousand Stars Immortal Domain Alchemy Guild.
“That should suffice,” Jiang Chengxuan concluded, setting aside further thoughts on the matter.
He resumed studying the Celestial Pill Compendium, focusing on the numerous formulas and techniques within. Despite his talent, fully comprehending the compendium would take considerable time.
Time flew by, and before he knew it, the day of the exchange conference arrived.
Engrossed in the compendium, Jiang Chengxuan was alerted by a mystical fluctuation from his token, signaling the start of the conference.
He prepared his items, opened the gate of his residence with the token, and headed towards the northern garden.
The Thousand Stars Immortal Domain Alchemy Guild was vast, and it took some time for Jiang Chengxuan to navigate through towers and pavilions to reach the northern garden.
Compared to the southern garden where he had met Lan Yu and the others, the northern garden’s scenery was markedly different.
It had a serene blue hue, creating an elegant and tranquil atmosphere, with celestial herbs exuding a calming fragrance.
“Brother Chengxuan, you’re here!” Lan Yu and the others were waiting at the entrance, greeting him warmly.
Jiang Chengxuan reciprocated with a courteous smile and joined them. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, they proceeded deeper into the northern garden.
Soon, a massive platform made of blue jade appeared before them, resembling a vast lake transformed into a giant amber under some mystical force.
Atop this blue jade platform, numerous alchemists in various robes, all wearing the Alchemy Guild’s emblem, mingled and interacted.
Some held celestial herbs and pills, discussing trades, while others argued and collaborated over alchemical experiments at large pill furnaces.
There were also many alchemists displaying their wares for sale, offering resources, celestial herbs, pills, and pill formulas.
Intrigued, Jiang Chengxuan and his companions presented their invitations and began exploring the bustling platform. Jiang Chengxuan soon used some of his ninth-level pills to trade for a rare ninth-level pill formula he had never seen before, feeling quite satisfied with the exchange.
The reputation of the Thousand Stars Immortal Domain Alchemy Guild as a hub for alchemists was well-deserved.
As they moved through the crowd, Jiang Chengxuan and Lan Yu gradually parted ways, each seeking what they needed.
Jiang Chengxuan found himself at a gathering of celestial alchemists, listening to their discussions about various celestial experiences and insights.
These alchemists had significant knowledge and experience, providing Jiang Chengxuan with valuable insights. He chose to keep a low profile, merely listening and occasionally responding without causing any disputes.
However, a commotion nearby soon caught his attention.
Recognizing the voices involved, Jiang Chengxuan frowned and approached. He saw Lan Yu and the others arguing with an elderly white-haired alchemist.
Listening in, he learned that Lan Yu’s group had traded some eighth-level pills for a pill formula, but the elder was dissatisfied with the pills’ quality and demanded the formula back. Since Lan Yu’s group had already seen most of the formula, the elder now demanded compensation.
Just as Jiang Chengxuan was about to intervene, a middle-aged man in blue robes stepped in. Introducing himself as one of the exchange conference organizers, he gained the trust of both parties and proposed a solution.
He offered to compensate the elder with an eighth-level pill from his own collection.
Although the elder was still displeased, he had no choice but to accept, given the man’s authority and the unified front of Lan Yu’s group. Jiang Chengxuan, seeing the situation resolved, decided to continue his exploration.
