Cultivation Online-Novel

Chapter 1301  Majestic Pill Pavilion

After hanging up the phone, Yuan sat there in silence and pondered how he should act accordingly.

Since he had an Exile, there wasn't any need to worry about failing the recruitment. However, his face is quite renowned after his announcement half a year ago so most Players out there have probably memorized his face by now.

'I could go to the recruitment wearing a mask, but that'd be a little suspicious. Even if I transformed myself, there's a decent chance that I'd be recognized.'

Suddenly, Yuan recalled the existence of a certain pill that could change his outer appearance and decided to disguise himself for his recruitment.

Now that he's dealt with his problem, he has to worry about Xiao Hua. Even without much knowledge of the other Exiles, he would be willing to bet his life that Xiao Hua was unique and that not many other Exiles were as small and young as her.

He was also pretty sure that Xiong Lu had warned the others of Xiao Hua, who killed Zhaohui, so they would all be alerted the moment they saw her. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

'Can the pills also make her taller?' Yuan wondered inwardly, as he was only aware of the pill's capability to alter one's facial features.

In the end, not wanting to overthink it, he decided to think about Xiao Hua's disguise after getting his hands on some appearance-altering pills.

Normally, he'd go to Feng Yuxiang for such an issue, but because of her condition, he would have to find other ways to acquire the pills.

After returning to Cultivation Online, Yuan immediately went around asking people about stores that sold pills.

"The Majestic Pill Pavilion will have all of your pill needs. There's a small branch in this city, but if you're willing to make the trip, there's a major store in the Western Owl City that will sell almost all pills one can imagine." "Can I travel to the Western Owl City through the teleportation device?" Yuan asked.

"Of course, but it'll cost you a good amount."

"Thank you."

Yuan decided to check out the branch store first.

The branch store was smaller than Yuan had envisioned. The interior was barely large enough to fit a dozen people inside at once, and there was only one person working at the desk.

"Welcome to the Majestic Pill Pavilion. How can I help you?" The worker there asked when Yuan approached the desk.

"Do you have any pills that can change one's appearance?"

"Appearance Altering Pills, huh? They are quite rare, so we don't carry any here. If you want to buy them, you'll have to go to the main branch at Western Owl City."

In the end, Yuan had to travel to the Western Owl City. Half an hour later, Yuan arrived at Western Owl City and the Majestic Pill Pavilion.

"This place is ridiculously huge!" Yuan was baffled at the sight of the colossal building that spanned an entire block and towered with 40 floors. The place looked more like a royalty's apartment building than a store.

Having seldom relied on pills in his journey, Yuan possessed limited knowledge when it came to the intricacies of the pill market.

In the world of cultivation, pills stand as an indispensable resource for both cultivators and mortals alike. Whether sought for medicinal purposes or to enhance one's cultivation, pills often take precedence over treasures due to their abundance and effectiveness.

Yuan entered the building shortly after.

The first floor consisted mostly of reception desks and information boards for the other floors.

"Thank you for waiting. Here is your order, Senior Huang." The worker handed a box of pills to the customer.

On the first floor, ordinary customers could order pills and pick them up at a later date. If one wanted a specific pill, they could find them at the information board, where hundreds of jade slips could be found hanging.

Each jade slip contained information regarding all of the available pills in the store and which floor they could be found on.

After looking through the jade slip, Yuan found the Appearance Altering Pills on the 7th floor. However, something else intrigued him.

On the 35th to the 37th floor, there were alchemy classes being taught.

The 35th floor is meant for beginners with less than 10 years of experience.

The 36th floor is meant for intermediate alchemists with less than 100 years of experience.

Last but not least, advanced alchemists with over 100 years of experience go to the 37th floor.

Surprisingly, these alchemy classes were free, so Yuan could enter without paying a single coin. However, the classes are taught only once a month.

'Oh? There are classes in session today on the 35th floor.' Yuan pondered taking a peek inside briefly after he finished with his shopping.

Sometime later, he arrived on the 7th floor, and he immediately walked to the nearest empty desk.

"Hello, what kind of pills are you looking to buy today?" The worker, a handsome young man, greeted him with a bright smile.

"Appearance Altering Pills."

"Certainly! They are currently 25 spirit stones each. How many would you like to purchase?"

'100 spirit stones?! That's 100,000 gold coins for a single pill!' Yuan cried inwardly after hearing the price.

Fortunately, he was pretty rich.

"I'll take two."

Despite his immense wealth, Yuan only bought what was necessary.

"Oh, can these pills alter one's height?" He then asked.

"Unfortunately, they can only alter your facial features. Only the Grand Appearance Altering Pills can achieve full-body alteration. Those are 1,000 spirit stones each, but even Cultivators at Spirit Enlightenment won't be able to see through your disguise."

Yuan's eyes widened at the price, and he asked, "What about the Appearance Altering Pills? Who will be able to tell the difference?"

"They will work against Spirit Lords at best, but even then, if someone is experienced with disguises, they would be able to tell even if they are only a Spirit Grandmaster." The worker explained.

The Exiles at the recruitment will mostly be Spirit Kings, so that would render the ordinary Appearance Altering Pills pointless.

"Okay, I'll take two Grand Appearance Altering Pills instead." Yuan handed over 2,000 spirit stones.

"Thank you! I will bring them to you right away!" The young man said before disappearing into one of many back rooms on that floor.
