Chapter 239 Increased Potential
It has been several months since the Amethyst Scorpion advanced, although it is still too early to advance again!
But there was no other way. Forced by the situation, Lin Changqing decided to select ten of the largest and strongest amethyst scorpions.

Give them Hundred Flowers Intoxicating Wine to advance to the second level, so that Lin Changliu won't have to do everything.

Although it is of the third level, theoretically it should be invincible among the thirteen foundation-building families in Pingyang Prefecture, but it is better not to use it casually if you can.

Moreover, he also wanted to see what the Amethyst Scorpions would look like after advancing to the second stage, but this time he was a bit too hasty, so Lin Changqing decided to give them some more potential.

There are still eleven foundation-building fruits hanging on the tree in the inner space, and Lin Changqing is going to get ten of them down.

Give it to the ten selected amethyst scorpions, and then give them Soul-Intoxicating Wine. This will increase their potential to some extent. Hopefully, their subsequent growth will not be affected by this promotion.

Of course, he certainly wouldn't dare to enter the inner space at Chengxia Peak now, so he could only wait until the day after tomorrow to set off and then find a safe place to enter the inner space and make proper arrangements at that time.

Early the next morning, Lin Changqing completed basic training.

Then he brewed a pot of spiritual tea and sat in the yard, waiting for Chen Ziya to arrive and appreciating the beautiful bamboo forest scenery in this place.

The breeze blows through the bamboo forest, and the bamboo leaves rustle. There is an inexplicable, elusive rhythm that makes people feel very comfortable and relaxed, and very artistic.

No wonder Chen Ziya likes this place so much and even named this courtyard "Tingfeng Cottage". It is indeed a good place for her.

After a while, Chen Ziya came, but did not say anything. Seeing Lin Changqing listening to the sound of the wind, she leaned quietly beside him. Lin Changqing hugged her, and the two of them listened to the sound of bamboo leaves for more than an hour together.

Finally, Lin Changqing saw that the time was almost up, so he pulled her and set off towards the mountain gate of Qingyun Sect.

With Chen Ziya, an inner sect disciple, by his side, it was much more convenient to enter and exit the mountain gate without encountering too many obstructions. He entered the market town and headed straight for Wanbao Pavilion.

As soon as I stepped into Wanbao Pavilion, a young girl came to greet me.

"Hello, two distinguished guests, welcome to Wanbao Pavilion. I am your shopping guide this time. You can just call me Zhilan!" She was the shop attendant who had entertained Lin Changqing once before.

"Hello, I want some pills." Lin Changqing said.

"Yes, please go upstairs for tea, both guests. This way, please!"

Zhilan led Lin Changqing and the other man to a small private room and asked them to sit down. Soon, a maid brought them two cups of spiritual tea.

"This guest looks familiar, as if I have seen him before." Zhilan greeted with a smile.

Lin Changqing nodded and said, "Yes, I have been here once before, and you were the one who received me then."

"It's really fate. You two came here today. If you need anything, I will try my best to find you."

"It is indeed fate. I came here this time to buy some Heavenly Thunder Seeds and Yin Thunder Pearls. Twenty of each at first!" Lin Changqing said lightly.

When Zhilan heard that Lin Changqing asked for such a powerful spiritual object at once, she was overjoyed.

He said quickly, "Yes, yes. The Sky Thunder Bead and the Yin Thunder Bead are both 500 Spiritual Stones each. I will go down and prepare them now. Please wait for a moment, my two distinguished guests."

Afterwards, he bowed and left to prepare the spiritual objects.

After the maid refilled the spiritual tea for the two twice, Zhilan came back holding a tray covered with a red cloth.

Zhilan placed the tray respectfully in front of Lin Changqing and was about to introduce herself when Lin Changqing raised his hand to stop her.

There was no need for her to introduce this thing. Lin Changqing was very familiar with it. He checked it himself and found that there was no problem with the forty high-powered, disposable magic weapons.

Lin Changqing nodded and continued, "I want all these things, and give me some pills!

"Okay," "What other elixirs do you need? I should be able to find them in Wanbao Pavilion. I'll get them for you."

Lin Changqing smiled and said, "Give me another 20 bottles of Soul-Restoring Pills, 20 bottles of Rejuvenating Pills, and 10 bottles of Jade Healing Pills!"

“Yes, you can take as many of these three commonly used elixirs as you want.

The top-grade soul-restoring pill and top-grade rejuvenation pill both cost twenty spirit stones each, and a bottle of ten costs two hundred spirit stones.

Top-grade Jade Healing Pills are more expensive, costing thirty spirit stones each, and a bottle of ten pills costs a total of three hundred spirit stones.

Do you need anything else? I'll get it all so that you two guests won't have to wait too long."

Lin Changqing was about to shake his head when he suddenly had an idea. The Amethyst Scorpion's spirit crystals had been used up, so it was a good opportunity to buy some here.

So he said, "Do you have any first-grade high-quality spirit crystals for sale here? If you do, you can bring them up and have a look.

These are probably what we need, go down and prepare them! We have other things to do later." Zhilan agreed quickly, and then went down, and this time she was much faster.

Not long after, she came back with fifty bottles of pills. Lin Changqing checked some of them and put them aside after confirming that there were no problems.

Zhilan brought two kinds of spirit crystals in total, one of which was ice crystal. Lin Changqing gestured for her to introduce the other one.

Zhilan picked up a small yellowish crystal and introduced it, "This is a first-grade, top-grade earth-attributed spiritual material, ginger yellow crystal. Each piece costs 180 spiritual stones. There are about 200 pieces in the pavilion now."

Lin Changqing frowned after hearing this. Isn't a first-grade high-quality spirit crystal about 150 spirit stones? Why is this so expensive? He couldn't help but ask, "How many spirit stones are there for a portion of ice crystal?"

Zhilan also knew that the guest had doubts, so she quickly replied, "Each serving of ice crystals is 150 spirit stones.

Turmeric crystal is so expensive because it is difficult to collect. It is only found in specific locations in the desert and can only be found below 100 feet. It is quite troublesome to mine and collect it.

Moreover, ginger crystal is relatively hard and suitable for refining armor, so it is slightly more expensive than other first-level spirit crystals."

Lin Changqing was speechless. Each portion cost thirty spirit stones, which was not just a little more expensive, but a lot more. However, at this price, he could still afford it.

He said to Zhilan, "Since you are talking so well, give me a hundred servings of ginger crystals!"

In fact, as soon as he heard that ginger crystal was harder and suitable for making protective gear, he decided to buy it.

Zhilan was overjoyed when she heard this. She quickly gave instructions and then ran out. She did not forget that the guests had just said that they had other things to do later, so she had to hurry.

Not long after, Zhilan came back with a hundred ginger crystals. Lin Changqing checked them and found no problems.

He poured out 49,000 spirit stones and his VIP card and gave them to Zhilan.

She used a secret method to record the transaction amount on Lin Changqing's VIP card, and the transaction was completed.

After the transaction was completed, Lin Changqing and the other person were ready to say goodbye and leave, and Zhilan was about to see them off to the door.

However, Lin Changqing stopped her and told her not to send him off. Then the two of them walked out of Wanbao Pavilion in a low profile. He didn't want to attract anyone's attention.

Holding Chen Ziya's hand, the two walked towards the gambling stone shop. It had been several months since Lin Changqing last came here.

If we go there now, the owner of the gambling stone shop should have already received new goods, so this would be the best time to go.

And Lin Changqing also knew the place, so the two of them held hands and walked over slowly.

Chen Ziya cherishes the present time very much, because the next time the two of them will stroll hand in hand again will be when the fight between the thirteen foundation-building families in Pingyang Prefecture is over.

It is not known how long this will take, and Lin Changqing himself has no way of estimating it.

As soon as the two of them stepped into the gambling stone shop, the shop assistant immediately came up to them, but Lin Changqing waved at him.

He said, "Don't bother, we can just take a look ourselves, and we'll find you if we need anything."

The shop assistant nodded, bowed, and left.

Lin Changqing said to Chen Ziya again: "Junior sister, let's split up and choose our own items first, and then meet up again later."

Chen Ziya chuckled and said, "Okay, Senior Brother, remember what you promised me, and come over to help me with some reference later."

Lin Changqing laughed. She couldn't help but help Chen Ziya last time. She still couldn't forget it until now. However, it's better not to let outsiders take away the good things.

"Okay, you pick a few first, I'll be over in a minute and we can decide which one we want then."

When Chen Ziya heard this, she immediately started choosing with great interest.

Lin Changqing himself went straight to a large rough stone. He saw it as soon as he entered the store. It was the only rough stone in the store that emitted a bright halo, and it was a blue halo, which was very beautiful.

Of course, there are thirteen or fourteen other halos with darker colors, but Lin Changqing is not very interested in them.

He came to the raw stone emitting a bright blue halo and began to study it. This raw stone was the second largest high-quality spirit stone mine he had ever seen.

It was estimated to be half the weight of the store's treasure. Lin Changqing couldn't help but hug it. As expected, he was now at the beginner level of physical training, so he could still lift something weighing fifteen hundred or six hundred kilograms.

But now, after trying two or three times, the raw stone didn't move at all, proving that it definitely weighs more than two thousand kilograms.

In this way, Lin Changqing had an idea in his mind. The pricing method for ordinary raw stones is almost the same: three to four times the weight is the selling price of the raw stone.
