Chapter 463: A Drug Deal (2/2)

”Then, why should I conduct business with you?”

”Okay then, goodbye.”

Sam turned around and started to walk away. There is no way he would beg someone. He is offering a fair deal. In fact, he felt like he is losing something in this. But this guy just wants to see his real identity.

”Wait. We can still do the business. Let me see the recipes.” The Master Pharmacist felt like he should at least check this out. After all, surely the head of the faction wouldn't bring a retard, right?”

Sam came back and showed the abstract recipes of the pill recipes. These are just like the abstracts of theses.

One can get a gist of the information.

The Pharmacist had a big frown as he read through and then his eyes turned to the dazzling stars by the end of it.

”Where did you get these?” He asked in an excited state. But all he received is Sam's cold gaze.

He understood that he wouldn't get any answer. But there are some emotions running in his heart. He remembered the price. Three thousand of each of these is too much of a price to pay. Even for him. The Faction head said that this has nothing to do with the faction.

His hands are itching to make a move and runway right at this moment. But after some time, he felt that this is not good to jump to a conclusion and wanted to negotiate.

”How about two hundred?”

”Three hundred, no more no less.”

”Two hundred and fifty?”

Sam didn't talk at all, he just looked at him calmly.

The Pharmacist gritted his teeth and thought of what to do. He could really earn a lot if he sold this to the faction and the cost price of these things is actually a bit less than some expensive pills and potions that existed in this world.

The most important thing about these things is expertise. That is why Sam didn't try his hand at this with some high-level methane flame.

He could sell one set of these things and the returns would be enough to buy ingredients for more than fifty sets, in fact, he could even raise the price and get eighty sets worth of ingredients.

That is why Sam made such a deal, he knew what he is giving him and in fact, Sam really is on the losing end. But he doesn't have another choice. These things have little use and in two years after he goes to the upper realm, these recipes might not be too common, but only slightly rare.

He forced that person to accept this deal because he has his own things to deal with. He has to raise some powerful high-level forces in the Pre-transcendent stage, the Transcendent stage, and Consummate stage.

The problem, It will hard for these categories to achieve even a minor breakthrough and there are two reasons for that and that is provided that they have required enlightenment.

One, the cultivation techniques. This reason was recently understood by him. The cultivation techniques are extremely underwhelming and low in quality. It makes it hard for them to gather enough spiritual energy to cultivate and raise their level when they are already in higher-levels, which brings us to the second reason which is, the lack of spiritual energy around the world.

The lack of spiritual energy makes even a talented person with the enlightenment and a good cultivation technique to lag in breakthroughs.

The first shortcoming can even be overcome by solving the second problem which is to have an environment with extremely dense and pure spiritual energy.

But it is not possible. That is why they are going to use these pills and potions.

These pills and potions are actually medicine sets.

And there are actually three types of sets in these. They are the Pre-transcendent set, the transcendent set, the consummate set.

Each set has six medicine with pills and potions combine, which have to be taken in a certain order. These medicine sets draw out the hidden potential of the body and make it absorb the spiritual energy more hungrily.

They can use any number of sets provided that they are in the same cultivation realm.

This might be a treasure in this world, but from what Sam read in the library, but in higher realms it is a common drug people use to increase their cultivation speed.

It would only try to ignite the potential of the latent body and wouldn't cause too much harm.

Some true prodigies wouldn't use them as there are still some minor side effects, but for the old men who are past their prime and don't have any form of means to breakthrough, this is a Divine elixir.

Sam figured he might need these things and from the people he has at the moment, three hundred sets of each category will be enough. In fact, they are actually more than required in the initial stages and after two years, they wouldn't need these things, because he is confident in finding a better training place.

But he still asked for three hundred just in case.
