Chapter 742: Chapter 742: Showcasing Abilities

In the Cultivation World, power was everything. Without great ability, one would be bullied. Now, Peter Brown had gained more understanding of this matter.

Although there were already sufficient Spiritual Grains in his ring, Peter did not want to hand them over so easily. He knew that it was time for him to demonstrate his abilities appropriately.

With this in mind, Peter arrived at the market.

He spent some cultivation coins to rent a stall and placed an advertisement in front of it.

As Peter’s advertisement board was set up, many people in the market gathered at his stall.

"Exchange Spiritual Grains for pill refining!"

People were astonished when they saw Peter’s advertisement and were very puzzled by his behavior.

"No way, Alchemists are such high-end professions. When did they start to sell their services at a stall?"

"Foundation Establishment and below, including Foundation Establishment stage Elixirs?"

Everyone began to look at the Elixirs that Peter said he could refine.

"He can even refine Foundation-Establishment Pills, I heard that for Alchemists to refine those, it needs three times the amount of Spirit Herbs to get one Elixir. And the most you can get is two Elixirs."

"You’re talking about Top-Grade Alchemists; normally, they use ten times the amount of Spirit Herbs for one Elixir’s worth. Sometimes, they only get one Elixir."

"Hey, everyone, look! The stall owner says it only needs one portion of Spirit Herbs. If the refining fails, they will compensate with a Foundation Establishment Pill!"

"There is such a good deal. Hurry and bring out the Spirit Herbs for him to refine!"

More and more people gathered in front of Peter’s stall.

"Hey, stall owner, your requirements are a bit weird. Why do you want to use Spiritual Grains as payment? Cultivation coins are not acceptable?"

Seeing the content of the advertisement, many people were curious.

Upon seeing more and more people arriving, Peter sighed and said, "Well, it’s not like I have a choice. Let me explain..."

During the conversation, Peter briefly introduced his situation and told everyone about the need to pay the Spiritual Grains.

After finishing his story, Peter displayed a look of distress and said, "I didn’t expect it to be such a situation. Now, I don’t know who has monopolized the market. I can’t even buy Spiritual Grains if I want to. I have no choice but to use this method. Please understand."

After listening to Peter, many people pondered, "It seems that you have offended someone!"

Some of the academy students who knew the situation also shook their heads.

At this point, more people gathered, and suddenly, someone loudly asked, "Stall owner, is it guaranteed to successfully refine a furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills?"

Peter looked at the burly, bearded middle-aged man who asked the question, nodded slightly, and said, "Although I am confident, I don’t know if I can succeed. Fortunately, I have Foundation Establishment Pills on me. If I fail, I can compensate with one. However, as you can see what I wrote, for each furnace, I will give you one Elixir if there are fewer than five and two Elixirs if there are more than five."

The burly man replied, "That’s reasonable, it’s always like that. However, you’re asking for Spiritual Grains. That’s a bit difficult to handle."

Peter said, "Usually, Alchemists charge for their services based on the type of Elixir they refine. Although Foundation Establishment Pills are not particularly special Elixirs, refining a furnace would cost a thousand cultivation coins. You just need to provide me with Spiritual Grains worth a thousand cultivation coins, and I will naturally refine it for you."

"Alright, I’ll let you help me refine a furnace."

At this moment, someone next to them whispered, "Fellow cultivator, it’s obvious that someone wants to deal with this Alchemist. If you provide the Spiritual Grains, won’t you offend the major powers behind it?"

"Hmph, as a member of the Red Blade Society, we fear no power."

As they spoke, the burly man handed over the Spirit Herbs needed for the Foundation Establishment Pill to Peter.

Peter looked at the burly man and said, "In that case, I’ll refine a furnace for you on the spot."

Word of Peter’s services in exchange for Spiritual Grains quickly spread throughout the market, and more and more people gathered at his stall. Although there were quite a few Alchemists around, it was rare for people to witness an Alchemist refining pills in person, especially Foundation Establishment Pills. Many people surrounded the stall.

Peter intended to demonstrate his Alchemy Technique in front of everyone, so when he took out his Pill Furnace and started cleaning it, his smooth and fluid movements amazed the crowd.

At this time, Peter initiated his True Qi, and a Spiritual Fire appeared.

"Who is this Alchemist?"

Upon seeing Peter’s proficient actions, everyone started to guess his identity.

However, Peter remained unmoved. After he had sorted the Spirit Herbs, he began placing them into the furnace one by one.

Of course, to further prove his Alchemy Technique to everyone, Peter secretly added a drop of Concentrated Spirit Liquid to the furnace.

Time passed quickly, and Peter had long been extremely skilled at refining Foundation Establishment Pills.

As he struck a Hand Seal, a refreshing fragrance filled the air. Then, as he struck another seal, the Pill Furnace opened, and everyone saw six crystal-clear pills inside.

"It was really successful!"

Those who saw it were all astonished.

"Wait! Look, it’s actually a Top-grade Spirit Pill!"

"It’s really a Top-grade one!"

At this point, Peter smiled and looked at the crowd, "As long as you provide Spiritual Grains, I can refine Elixirs for you. After today, I won’t be refining like this, so don’t miss out."

If the crowd were initially skeptical about Peter’s Alchemy Technique, now that they had seen the actual refining process, no one doubted his skill anymore.

Glancing at the burly man, Peter said, "As long as you give me the Spiritual Grains, the two Foundation Establishment Pills are yours."

However, the burly man shouted, "I don’t have any Spiritual Grains, only cultivation coins! I can give you twice as much as you’re asking for."

Shaking his head, Peter told the burly man, "You just said you had Spiritual Grains earlier. I only want Spiritual Grains."

"I don’t have Spiritual Grains, only cultivation coins! Hurry up and give me the Foundation Establishment Pills."

Peter looked at the burly man and said in front of the crowd, "It’s only one portion of Foundation Establishment Spirit Herbs. I can afford the loss."

As he spoke, Peter used his True Qi to crush the six Foundation Establishment Pills into ashes in front of everyone. Then, he took out a set of Spirit Herbs from his ring and threw it to the burly man, "Compensation for your Spirit Herbs."

Ah!

At this moment, everyone was shocked. No one had expected Peter to destroy the Elixirs, including at least two Top-grade ones.

The burly man was furious and glared at Peter, "You have to compensate me for the Elixirs!"

Peter didn’t pay any attention to him and said to the crowd, "As I said, I only want Spiritual Grains. Don’t come to me if you don’t have any."

With that, he looked at the burly man and said, "Anyone who wants me to refine for them must sign a covenant first. If you cannot present Spiritual Grains, I will destroy the Spirit Herbs without compensation."

What kind of Alchemist is this?!

At this point, the onlookers shook their heads, having never seen such an unconventional Alchemist before.

However, everyone was truly awed by Peter’s Alchemy Technique.
