Chapter 295: The First Signs of Fame

Taking the Snow Bone Ginsengs from the scruffy old man, Xiao Ming waved his hand and a pale green scroll appeared, which he threw towards the old man.

The old man grabbed it hastily.

"This is the recipe for the Clear Body and Soul Pill. It can remove impurities from the body, improve some aptitudes, and is most suitable for infants. It also has a certain calming effect on the mind and soul. It can be considered a good intermediate seventh-tier pill," Xiao Ming explained.

After scanning the recipe with his spiritual perception, the scruffy old man found that it was indeed as Xiao Ming had said, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Hahaha, it's a pleasure doing business with you! Come on, take a look and see if there's anything else you like at my stall. Let's continue our exchange..."

Hearing this, Xiao Ming let out a sigh. If this continued for a few more trades, he couldn't afford it. The intermediate seventh-tier pill recipe was not some kind of cabbage. If he had not already studied that recipe, he wouldn't have taken it out.

Although he thought that, Xiao Ming still looked around the old man's stall, but ultimately withdrew his gaze with disappointment.

He had not found anything useful to him, such as a certain piece of copper plate.

Seeing that Xiao Ming hadn't found anything he liked among his items, the scruffy old man was a little disappointed.

"Little brother, if you didn't find anything you liked, forget about it. I'm Yan Tian, and if there's anything good next time, I'll let you know first..."

Xiao Ming smiled and knew that the old man was trying to make friends, so he didn't refuse.

"Thank you, Senior. My name is Xiao Ming. I'll be staying in the Holy Pill City for a while. If you have any interesting ancient items, you can contact me."

...

After leaving the scruffy old man's stall, Xiao Ming strolled around the trade fair area accompanied by Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin before finally settling in an inn near the Pill Tower.

The inns near the Pill Tower were exorbitantly expensive, and only wealthy alchemists could afford to stay there.

As they made their way out, the badge on Xiao Ming's chest caused quite a stir once again.

This time, however, he didn't choose to take it off discreetly. He needed to establish a reputation as soon as possible in the Central Plains, so that people would seek him out to refine pills and improve his proficiency in pill refining.

Otherwise, he would exhaust himself searching for rare medicinal materials and refining pills on his own, not to mention the high costs and low efficiency.

As expected, the news of a young high-grade seventh-tier Alchemist quickly spread from the headquarters of the Pill Tower to the outside world, causing countless discussions.

At first, some people thought it was just a rumor, as the current Pill Tower seemed to have no one with such strong talent.

It wasn't until many people came to the Pill Tower to confirm and more and more people confidently claimed to have seen the young high-grade seventh-tier Alchemist that everyone had to believe that such a person really existed.

As a result, Xiao Ming's existence sparked a lot of interest.

…

One of the Pill Tower's Five Great Clans, the Cao Clan.

In a luxurious room, an expensive-looking round table was placed in the center.

A graceful figure sat beside the table, listening to a maid's report.

After hearing the maid's report, a faint smile slowly appeared at the corner of the woman's slender lips. At that moment, the thin and alluring cheeks of her face became filled with enchantment.

"Xiao Ming, the first person I have ever heard of who is stronger than me. I really want to meet him..."

…

In a high-floor room of the Pill Tower, a discussion was underway.

"I heard that a new genius has emerged in our Pill Tower who's less than eighteen years old and is already a high-grade seventh-tier Alchemist with great potential. Have we investigated his background?"

"This young man has only been certified for seven days in our Pill Tower, and his first certification was in Fog City. He hails from the North-Western Region."

"I never would have thought that such a remote place like the North-Western Region could produce such a talented individual."

"We should pay more attention to him in the future. This little friend really has the potential to become a giant..."

...

One of the Pill Tower's Five Great Clans, the Ye Clan.

Assembly Hall.

"First Elder, our clan's assessment did not meet the standards this time. If we continue like this, our clan may be kicked out of the five great clans in a few years."

"How is this possible...?"

"If we are kicked out of the five great clans and lose the Pill Tower's protection, our Ye Clan will be finished!"

"It seems that we can only seek external help, but it's not easy to find young people with excellent qualifications..."

"I heard that there is an extremely talented young person in Holy Pill City. Maybe we can find him."

"First Elder, what do you think?"

"It's possible. I will bring a generous gift to visit him. I just don't know if he will agree. For the sake of our clan, even if I have to sacrifice my old face, I have to try..."

...

Sitting on a cushion in an inn, Xiao Ming had no idea that many people were thinking about him.

At this moment, he was going out to collect medicinal materials. He wanted to refine a seventh-tier pill to familiarize himself with the process.

The target of his refinement was the Emperor's Stream Pulp Pill, a pill formula he had created himself, which he found much easier to refine.

As Xiao Ming retrieved the final ingredient, the Emperor's Stream Pulp, he felt a slight movement in the sleeve of his robe. Suddenly, a cute little head popped out - it was the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.

As soon as it appeared, it shook its small head, and its purple snake pupils stared at the jade bottle containing the Emperor's Stream Pulp. The attraction of this medicinal material to magical beasts was extraordinary. Over the three months following Xiao Ming, he had fed the little snake with many things, allowing it to evolve several times, and its spiritual wisdom increased rapidly. Otherwise, it would have pounced on the bottle long ago.

Even so, it kept nodding its little head at Xiao Ming and making a hissing sound, with a pleasing expression in its purple eyes. Its meaning was obvious - it wanted the Emperor's Stream Pulp.

"This is the material I use to refine pills; I can't give it to you to eat..." Xiao Ming touched the snake's head.

The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python understood Xiao Ming's words and showed a pitiful expression in its purple eyes.

Xiao Ming had brought the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python along before, mainly because he was too lazy to send it back, and besides, the snake looked cute, so he decided to keep it as a pet.

Not to mention, raising this pet was actually quite interesting.

Now, seeing the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python like this, Xiao Ming didn't get angry. The spiritual wisdom of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python was at most that of a four or five-year-old child, so there was no point in getting upset with it.

Instead, he gently touched its head and said, "I really can't give you the Emperor's Stream Pulp. How about I give you some Amethyst Lion Birth Essence instead?"

After saying that, Xiao Ming took out a half bottle of the Amethyst Lion Birth Essence.

The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python just shook its head, looking haughty.

Seeing this, Xiao Ming pondered for a moment, then sighed and said, "It's cheaper for you, I'll just give you a piece of Core-Fire Lotus Seed."
