Chapter 265 - 265 Shun Long's shop
'DIVINE ALCHEMIST SHUN'
These 3 bold and arrogant words drew everyone's attention.
''Divine alchemist?''
''Haha! Someone dares to call themselves a divine alchemist? How interesting!''
Although Shun Long's sign had captured the audience's attention, no one walked towards Shun Long's and Liu Mei's shop right away.
Shun Long however didn't mind, and as he entered back in the shop, he proceeded to fill the empty glass cases that were used to display goods, with bottles filled with medicinal pills.
All of them were top-grade rank 4 pills that Shun Long had refined in the past, including the 'Sun-healing pill', 'anti-toxin' pills, rank 4 'Qi replenishing pills', or even the rank 4 'Blood ignition pill', that allowed even a peak rank 9 Spirit realm cultivator to increase their strength for a short amount of time, and even fight off against a rank 1 Nascent Soul stage expert.
Shun Long had already refined this pill in the last few days, using some of the medicinal herbs that he had purchased while he and Liu Mei were still in the 'Heaven's Dome city'.
Of course, consuming this 'Blood ignition pill' had very severe consequences to a cultivator's body and would only be used as a last resort, but it was still something incredibly valuable to any Spirit realm cultivator.
A little more than an hour later, there was finally a young man who entered the shop.
The man seemed to be around 20 years old, with short brown hair and a hooked nose, while from head to toe he was dressed in black robes.
His cultivation was at the peak of rank 8 in Heaven grade, and he was the first person to enter the shop.
A handsome young man was sitting on a rocking chair with his eyes closed, while 4 jade-white skeletons with green wisps of ember in their eyes seemed to be managing the shop.
A white-veiled woman was also sitting next to the young man, but her gaze seemed to be staring at the 4 skeletons instead.
The young man who entered the shop turned his eyes to the 4 skeletons as well, and was shocked when he noticed that their auras were surprisingly at the Spirit realm!
What kind of monsters were these?
The 4 skeletons however didn't move from their position behind the counters even after the young man had entered the shop, making him not know whether he should step forward or not.
Just as he was contemplating over whether he should leave the shop, the young man's gaze was suddenly focused on one of the pill bottles behind the glass cases.
''Sun-healing pills?''
The young man spoke out loud in an uncertain voice, and almost as if he had forgotten the fear that the eerie white skeletons had induced to him, he hurried in front of the glass case as he stared at the pill bottles one by one.
''So many... 'Sun-healing pills', 'Qi replenishing pills', 'anti-toxin pills'...
Wait! A-A-All of them are t-top grade pills?''
When the young man read the descriptions below each pill bottle, as well as their prices, his heart had almost burst from the shock.
Turning his head to look at Shun Long, the young man couldn't help asking loudly in a shocked voice
''Owner, are you sure that they are all top-grade rank 4 pills? How is this possible for so many top-grade pills to appear?
But still... aren't the prices a bit too expensive?''
How could the young man not be shocked?
Each top-grade 'Sun-healing pill' was priced at 16.000 low-grade spirit stones each, while the entire pill bottle would cost 160.000 low-grade spirit stones or 1600 middle-grade ones.
A pill bottle filled 'anti-toxin pills' was priced at 30.000 low-grade spirit stones, while the 'Qi replenishing pills' were the cheapest ones at 20.000 spirit stones per bottle.
However, these prices were probably among the highest in the entire 'City of Sin'.
The young man had never heard of another pill shop setting their prices so high.
''All of these pills are top-grade pills, and their prices are set according to the 'Alchemists' Guild'.''
The young man gulped but didn't respond.
He wanted to take a look at the rest of the pills, but he was afraid that he would get a heart attack by the exorbitant prices that the boss had set.
The 'Alchemists' Guild'? Although the young man had heard about it, there is no such place in the 'City of Sin'.
The young man had a shocked expression on his face as he left the shop, but Shun Long didn't seem to mind as he continued to sit on the chair with his eyes closed.
As soon as the young man left, a giggle escaped Liu Mei's mouth as she looked at Shun Long and said
''That person left without even checking Long-ge's 'Spirit enhancing pills' and the 'Blood ignition pills', or he may have died from shock after seeing the prices.''
Shun Long smiled as he looked at Liu Mei and said
''I am sure that there are very few pill shops in the 'City of Sin' that have such high prices for their pills.
But this is also good. After all, there will only be a limited supply of 'Spirit enhancing pills' that we will sell, so it will be up to those who come first.''
Liu Mei nodded her head as she understood Shun Long's reasoning.
Indeed, the rarer a pill is, the more attention it would attract. As for the high prices, they were aimed at those people who were willing to become stronger even faster than the rest.
After all, a normal Spirit realm cultivator would have to spend a long time in meditation in order to enhance their spirit sense, but a 'Spirit enhancing pill' could definitely save him a long time of meditation.
2 hours had passed since that peak rank 8 Heaven grade young man had left the shop, and word had already started to spread throughout the street, of the extremely expensive prices that the boss of the pill shop had set.
He claimed that every single pill of his was a top-grade rank 4 pill, and the prices were much higher than almost any other shop in the 'City of Sin'.
Half an hour more passed, when a dignified middle-aged man with black robes stood outside Shun Long's shop with his hands clasped behind his back.
The man snorted as he looked at the words 'DIVINE ALCHEMIST SHUN', before he said in a mocking voice
''Divine alchemist? Let's see who has the guts to call himself a divine alchemist in the northern part of the 'City of Sin'!''
Without any hesitation, the middle-aged man took a step forward and pushed open the door of the shop as he entered inside.
