Chapter 286: Jackpot

“The base can communicate freely, which makes the news spread quite quickly. Now, the tricksters were extremely skilled, and it was hard to tell if they were real or not. However, there were some real goods here.”

Zhou Ping stopped in front of a stall with a yellow book on it.

“Alchemy?”

Zhou Ping’s heart skipped a beat. He wanted to pick up the book.

“Don’t move unless you buy it.” One hand pressed down on the book.

Zhou Ping looked up and saw that the stall owner was an extremely handsome middle-aged man.

“I’ll just flip through it and buy it immediately if I’m satisfied,”Zhou Ping said.

When the stall owner heard this, he let go of his hand and stared at Zhou Ping. Zhou Ping picked up the book and quickly flipped through it a few times.

“This book is about alchemy?” Zhou Ping asked.

“That’s right,” the stall owner replied.

“How many credits?” Zhou Ping closed the book.

“Three thousand credits,” the stall owner said.

.

“Oh?Three thousand? It is cheap enough. How did you get this book?” Zhou Ping casually asked.

“No comment,” the stall owner said with quite a personality.

“Heh!” Zhou Ping threw the book on the stall and turned to leave.

“If you really want to buy it, I’ll give it for 2,000 credits,” when the stall owner saw that Zhou Ping was leaving, he said aloud.

“Fifty credits.” Zhou Ping turned around and extended his hand.

“50 Credits?” The stall owner laughed.

“50 Credits to buy alchemy? Are you stupid or am I stupid?”

“If it’s a true alchemy technique, let alone fifty credits, I’ll buy five thousand credits. But your book….” Zhou Ping raised his eyebrows.

The true alchemy technique was written in secret script. But this pill refinement technique wasn’t a secret script. In fact, it was written in simplified Chinese. The stall owner had never seen a true pill refinement technique. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a mistake.

“How do you know that this alchemy technique is fake?” The stall owner asked in a deep voice.

“It’s very simple, look here…” Zhou Ping flipped to the last few pages of the alchemy book and pointed.

On the last few pages, there were some strange symbols.

“If it was really an alchemy technique, how could he have used such a trick to draw such a ghostly talisman? These ghostly talismans seemed to add a lot of mystery, but in reality, they were completely meaningless.”

Zhou Ping’s expression didn’t change, but in reality, he was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out.

Those last few pages weren’t ghostly talismans at all. They were actually secret alchemy texts. However, this secret message was something that non-alchemists couldn’t understand at all. That was why Zhou Ping dared to talk nonsense like this.

“I accidentally killed a strange guy. That guy was seriously injured and didn’t have anything. I didn’t forge this secret manual,” the handsome stall owner said.

“Haha, I don’t care how you got this secret technique. I just want to ask, have you ever cultivated it? Was it true or false? Wouldn’t you know as soon as he cultivated it?” Zhou Ping sneered.

The handsome man had a depressed expression on his face. It was obvious that he had tried to cultivate before, but he found nothing. Only then did he know that this secret manual was fake.

“How is it? 50 Credits, sold or not?” Zhou Ping saw that the stall owner was silent and took the initiative to ask.

“Since you know it’s fake, why do you want to buy it?” The stall owner wasn’t stupid. He rolled his eyes twice and asked.

“Of course, I have my use if I buy it.” Zhou Ping glanced at the stall owner.

“There’s no harm in telling you. I know someone who is obsessed with alchemy. From the looks of it, this alchemy book of yours is very similar. If I am to increase the price and sell it to that person, it would be an income. How could I not do it?” Zhou Ping could guarantee that the original owner of this secret manual, even if he was not an alchemist, had something to do with alchemists.

“So you’re also that kind of fellow.” When the stall owner heard Zhou Ping’s words, he instantly laughed.

“Since you plan to sell it as a true alchemy skill, the price will definitely not be low. Brother will eat meat, so let me have a sip of soup. Fifty credits is too little. Why not just add a bit more?”

The secret manual was fake. The delicate and pretty stall owner had verified this before. Therefore, he had no doubt about Zhou Ping’s words.

“So it’s like this…” Zhou Ping pondered for a while.

“One hundred credits. I might as well make a copy myself,” Zhou Ping said.

“Alright, brother, you’re straightforward. I can’t just keep writing. Then 100 credits!” The handsome stall owner nodded and handed the alchemy book to Zhou Ping.

Both sides took out their cards and Zhou Ping quickly transferred 100 credits to the handsome stall owner… In the secret realm, this student card was like a bank card. As long as one’s real name was applied for, anyone could apply for it.However, one person could only apply for one. If they dropped it, they would have to make up for it.

After the deal was completed, both sides had nothing to say. Holding the alchemy book, Zhou Ping continued his stroll.

When he could no longer see the vendor, Zhou Ping immediately took out the alchemy book and flipped it to the end.

“Hahaha, I’ve picked up a good deal…”

Looking at the last few pages written in secret, Zhou Ping smiled.

Everything written in front of this pill refinement technique was indeed fake. He didn’t know if his original master was planning to hide something or lie to him. However, this had nothing to do with Zhou Ping. What Zhou Ping cared about was the last few pages written in alchemist’s words.

After a quick scan, Zhou Ping’s heart skipped a beat.

Of course, what was written on it wasn’t a pill refinement technique. Zhou Ping also knew how to refine pills. There was nothing to be excited about. However, what was recorded was a medicinal pill. In other words, the last few pages were filled with pill formulas.

It wasn’t just the pill recipe. It also gave a detailed description of the effects of the pill recipe.

After taking a closer look, Zhou Ping took a deep breath and hid his ecstasy. He put the alchemy technique into his bosom and continued to stroll around as if nothing had happened. However, Zhou Ping’s heart had already turned upside down.

The last few pages recorded a pill refinement method called Barrier Breaking Pill. This Barrier Breaking Pill had no effect on True Qi cultivators, but for Martial Intent Transformation cultivators, it was a treasure.

This was because it could help a fighter break through to the True Qi Realm without any side effects.

This was heaven defying!

One must know that out of a hundred Martial Intent Transformation practitioners, ninety-nine were unable to break through to the True Qi Realm.Right now, everyone was practicing martial arts. There were more than a billion people in the country, and only one in ten thousand could break through the Martial Intent Transformation Realm. Many of them were disciples of large clans and sects.

But after all, the population base was there. There were at least a hundred thousand martial artists in the Martial Intent Transformation Realm.

However, were there many cultivators in the country?

Zhou Ping could only smile and be speechless. One had to know that Martial Intent Transformation practitioners in the outside world were rare.
