Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Please vote with power stones. It supports me a lot, and if I get two hundred power stones by the end of the week, then I will release five extra chapters

The room got exceptionally hot. I added the ingredients that the system gave me. One after another, herbs that I had never heard off went into the cauldron. I lowered the intensity of the Qi that I sent in, as per the instruction of the manual. The fire beneath the furnace died down, and slowly, the ingredients inside were only simmering, at most.

They started coming together, and they formed a viscous liquid inside the vat. After some time, they started forming pills, like they were supposed to. At this moment, the furnace lit up and a few runes that were written on the outside glowed. The furnace closed, and the fire went down completely. My Qi stopped flowing in, and it seemed that the pill making was over.

I knew that I had to wait now. I had to wait for the pills to form, and if I was lucky, they wouldn’t have any impurities.

Ping!

“Host has successfully made 5 Qi Cultivation Pills. 3 skill points obtained. Basic Proficiency in Alchemy obtained. Mission completed. 500 exp obtained.”

“That’s a lot of rewards for just alchemy. It seems that alchemy gives good money everywhere. If this is the case, then I think I will take that up as a side profession. I’ll just sell one of these and see how much it will go for.” I said out loud as I opened the pill furnace. Inside, five pills that looked quite muddy just sat there, lying.

“If I take this to an auction house, will anyone buy it? They look so bad.” I thought as I retrieved them and put them in a pouch. The minute I put them in the pouch, the furnace disappeared. It was like it was never here.

I got up and left the room. I put on the hat and the cloak, and roamed the city. Soon, I came across a bustling auction house. People streamed in, but no one came out. There seemed to be something interesting going on there. I approached the attendants, who were very pretty, who were welcoming the guests. They stopped me and looked at me with apprehension.

“I am here to sell.” I said, trying to use a hoarse voice to disguise my own.

“I will call the appraiser. What do you wish to sell?” the attendant asked with a sweet voice.

“Qi Condensation Pills.” I said.

Hearing this, they raised their eyebrows.

“I will call the chief appraiser immediately.” she said as she welcomed me through another entrance. I walked in to a room that was empty, except for a desk. The woman hurried into the hallway that led to this room from the inside.

In a few minutes, an old man and a middle aged one entered the room along with the attendant.

“So you are the esteemed guest that wishes to sell Qi Condensation Pills?” the old man asked.

“You must be the appraiser.” I nodded and I took out the muddy pills from the pouch. I took out four, leaving one for me, to use later.

Seeing me take those muddy pills out, they raised their eyebrows.

“You store those shit looking pills in a pouch and you call them Qi Condensation Pills? You charlatan! You fraudster. I will have you thrown out!” the middle aged man shouted at me.

“Calm down. I am a poor man, and these are all I have. I do not have a container to hold them in. Let the appraiser tell us what he thinks.” I said in a calm and hoarse voice. But inside, my heart clenched.

The old man nodded and he took the pills from my hand. He let his fingers run through them, and I could feel that his Qi was checking the pills out.

“Impossible. These pills, they are of the highest quality! The ingredients that were used to make these pills are at least a thousand years old! For these to be sold at this auction, it will be a shame. We have to save these for the grand auction next week.” the appraiser said with an astonished tone.

Hearing this, I relaxed. And I used this opportunity to gloat.

“And I heard someone say that they want me thrown out? I will comply. Give me my pills back. There should be someone else who will sell these for me.” I reached for the pills.

The old man instinctively took the pills to his chest.

“You idiot manager. Do something. Or the main branch will have you thrown out.” he snarled at the middle aged man.

“I-I… I will discount the cut that the house takes. I will make it five percent, instead of ten. That should be a huge increase. I will also make you a VIP member of the auction house. You will be the fifth VIP member of the Shianxi Auction House in this city since its inception.” the manager said in a hurry.

I knew that this was an opportunity I could not leave.

“Fine then. I will keep these with you for the time being. But I want a token to show that you have them. Also, VIP members need to have some recognition, I suppose.” I asked.

The manager took out a black card and handed it to me.

“If you show this to any of the guards or attendants at Shianxi, or any of the branches in the country, you will be given your own private room.” the manager said.

I grabbed the card and a jade token that he gave and left the room. Today was a very profitable one, and I learnt a lot. One thing was for sure. They knew that I was the alchemist who made this, and that was why they treated me like this. I smiled as I skipped off back home. In a week, I was going to earn a lot of money.
