Chapter 257: Asking For Pills


    Yang Shi saw a yellow robed old man was standing outside his store a he was looking around. Yang Shi instantly recognized him as he hurriedly went to him.


    " Such a good name. It has been only a day, and your store is already be quite well known." The old manughed as he saw Yang Shi wasing to him.


    " Hehe, I thought you already died from old age, master." Yang Shi greeted him as heughed.


    " You brat! We met after such a long time and your mouth is already spewing ominous words." The old man couldn''t help but grimace.


    " Pleasee inside, Master Bao." Yang Shi smiled as he took him to his shop.


    It was none other than Master Bao, who had given Yang Shi the Great Yang Sr me Art. He also helped Yang Shi to leave the Misty Tower City to avoid the detection of the elders of the Golden Sun Sect back then.


    " Hmm, This weapon looks good. The sharpness, the edge, perfect as a long sword." Master Bao picked a weapon from Yang Shi''s disy case as he looked at it.


    " It could have been better if you had used Cold water steel instead of Springleaf Steel." Master Baomented.


    " Thanks for reminding, master. I will try to do better next time." Yang Shi nodded humbly.


    " Good, the willingness to learn. I like that." Master Bao nodded.


    " I heard that Elder Cheng had given you an order for making a cauldron, right?"


    " A Flowing Water River Diagram, you have already learned making suchplex diagram?" Master Bao asked curiously.


    " Yes, I have read the scriptures in the Golden Fire Tower. I learned from there." Yang Shiughed mildly.


    Master Bao shook his head, " Although there are many techniques in Golden Fire Tower, reading them and learning from them are two different things."


    " Anyway, I don''t think you came here just to congratte me on this shop?" Yang Shi asked.


    " Well, I just wanted to check how far your Great Yang Sr me Art has improved." Master Bao chuckled.


    " I have already reached the me Maniption Realm." Yang Shi opened his palm as hi Spirit me appeared. The mes slowly took the shape of a lily.


    " What? Is this is your origin me?! You already created your own Spirit me?" Master Bao''s eyes went wide.


    " Not really. It only has a special connection with me because of my unique Primordial Spirit." Yang Shi shook his head.


    " When I got my Beast me, my Primordial Spirit absorbed the Beast me and made it my own me." Yang Shi exined as his Crimson Lily primordial spirit appeared behind him.


    " A Fire attribute primordial spirit? No wonder why your talent is so good at cksmithing." Master Bao nodded.


    " The reason I came here to invite you for the yearly Golden Fire Tournament. Since the Mysterious Spirit Realm will soon open, many geniuses areing from all around."


    " The Golden Fire Tournament happens every year, where alchemists and cksmithse to showcase their talents. Thepetition is fierce, but the rewards are also ample."


    " I hope youe to Firmament City to participate in this." Master Bao spoke. He looked at Yang Shi with an interesting gaze.


    " So, When is thepetition?" Yang Shi asked.


    " After a week." Master Bao nodded.


    " But why me? I thought there are many other talents in Azure Wind City?" Yang Shiughed.


    " Don''t act like you don''t know anything. You can be considered as half-disciple of mine. I have made a bet with someone so I hope you will be able to keep my face." Master Bao snickered.


    " Don''t worry. I have faith in my talent." Yang Shi nodded.


    Yang Shi suddenly thought of something as his eyes narrowed. He smiled cheekily as he asked,


    " Master Bao, Since you came after such a long time, you haven''t brought any present for this disciple?"


    " Present? Why do you need any present?" Master Bao''s eyes squinted.


    " Fine, What do you want? A superb forging table? Or some sort of cksmithing technique?"


    " The Great Yang Sr me Art is already a Heaven grade technique. I don''t think you want another me controlling technique?" Master Bao asked.


    " Master, If you can, please give me a bottle of Soul Nourishing Pills." Yang Shi spoke seriously.


    Although he was about to use Perception Stones to heal his soul, Getting additional help from Master Bao won''t hurt much.


    " Soul Nourishing Pill?! Brat, Why you need such a precious pill? Don''t tell me that your soul is hurt?" Master Bao''s expression changed as he asked gravely.


    Damage on the soul was noughing matter. Internal and external wounds are easy to heal, but one''s soul is different.


    Even it is slightly damaged; it can affect the cultivator tremendously.


    With a damaged soul, be it the martial path or supplementary path, one''s growth would be limited greatly.


    " You can say that. But thankfully, with Soul Nourishing Pill, I will be okay." Yang Shi nodded.


    " Soul Nourishing Pill is a high tier rank three pill. It is very hard to get a bottle of Soul Nourishing Pill. Never mind, I think I have some way." Master Bao pinched his forehead as he sighed.


    " You must remain prepared. This year''s Golden Fire Tournament will be much special. You must at least take a position in the top ten." Master Bao said in a serious tone.


    " I know your talent is very high among your peers, but don''t just limit your view in Azure Cloud Ancient Kingdom."


    " Don''t worry about me, I definitely give you a surprise." Yang Shi smiled.


    " As long as you are confident. I have some work in the Royal Pce, so I will be going. As for your Soul Nourishing Pill, wait for a day or two." Master Bao spoke as he got up.


    Yang Shi saw the departing figure of Master Bao as he became excited. Although his necessity for Soul Nourishing Pill has lessened now, having them will be much better.


    " With Soul Nourishing Pill and Perception Stone, cultivating the Myriad Soul Controlling Technique will be much easier." Yang Shiughed.


    After he asked Bai Ruxue to look after the shop, Yang Shi hurriedly got out and went to the Hundred Gold Pavilion.


    " Can you show me some Perception Stones? I want the quality ones." Yang Shi asked.


    " Young noble, you came to the right ce. We have recently received a batch of Perception Stones." The attendant nodded as he opened a wooden box in front of Yang Shi.


    The box was packed with Perception Stones of all sizes and shapes. Perception Stone wasrgely needed by the Rune Masters.


    Unless they awake their soul and utilize soul qi, They are dependent upon the power of Perception Stone.


    Of course, utilizing Perception Stone also requires proficiency. For Adept rank Rune Masters, they could waste a dozen Perception Stones just to make one or two rank one talismans.


    Yang Shi activated his Celestial View as he probed all the Perception Stone. With his powerful eyes, he could clearly see the aura emitted by the stones.


    The brighter the aura, the better the quality. And what Yang Shi wants are top qualities Perception Stone.


    " Well, Give me all these two boxes." Yang Shi spoke.


    " Young noble?! Are you sure?" The attendant became startled as he looked at Yang Shi like looking at a ghost.


    Although Perception Stones were precious, other than Rune inscription, it doesn''t have many uses. For an ordinary cultivator, It is nothing more than a shiny mortal gem.


    " Here, Five million gold coins. I think it should cover the expenses, right?" Yang Shi handed him a storage pouch as heughed.


    The attendant checked the storage pouch as his face became ted. He hastily nodded as he said, " Enough, It is already enough."


    As Yang Shi was about to say something else, another young man reached the ce as he asked the attendant,


    " Boss, I heard that you received another batch of Perception Stone? I want to buy them.. All of them."
