"Black market… Perfect timing. I'm still missing a few materials for the One-Origin Heaven-Opening Pill that I'm helping Ling'er gather. Maybe I can try my luck at the black market!"
The ingredients for the One-Origin Heaven-Opening Pill weren't easy to come by.
Su Xiaobai had spent three days combing through the entire No. 18 Base, managing to acquire only a portion of the required materials. He still hadn't collected everything he needed. Originally, he had considered visiting the Pill Treasure Pavilion to test the waters. After all, it was the most professional source for such things; perhaps they could provide leads for purchasing alchemy materials.
However, the mention of the black market by the staff at the Beast Treasure Pavilion gave him a new idea.
"Plus, I need to save some spirit coins for future use—can't run out of money when I need to buy martial arts techniques."
"Currently, I have 460 million left. Upgrading the one-click cultivation, one-click practice, and auto hunting features isn't an issue… But what I'm really curious about is the system's next new function!"
A glimmer of excitement flashed in Su Xiaobai's eyes.
To unlock the next system feature after the One-Click Alchemy, all the existing features needed to be upgraded to Level 5.
At present, all the other features met the requirement—except for the One-Click Alchemy, which was still at Level 3.
Following the philosophy that unlocking a new cheat would bring immense benefits, Su Xiaobai decided to prioritize upgrading the One-Click Alchemy to Level 5!
Moreover, reaching Level 5 wouldn't just unlock a new feature—it would also grant an additional bonus function. The value was simply too good to pass up!
"System, upgrade the One-Click Alchemy to Level 5!" Su Xiaobai commanded without hesitation.
"Ding! Deducting 21.6 million, One-Click Alchemy upgraded to Level 4. The pill grade is now elevated to [Exquisite Grade]!"
"Ding! Deducting 64.8 million, One-Click Alchemy upgraded to Level 5. The pill grade is now elevated to [Lower Divine Grade]!"
"Ding! One-Click Alchemy space has been upgraded to Level 5, unlocking an additional feature: [Dual Furnace]!"
"[Dual Furnace]: After successfully refining pills, the output quantity will double!"
Hearing the system's latest notification, Su Xiaobai's eyes widened in disbelief.
This newly unlocked feature is incredible! It can double the pill output?
Doesn't this mean that I can now produce two pills with just one set of ingredients? This function is nothing short of mind-blowing!
Why were high-grade pills so valuable? Warriors were even willing to risk their lives for a single pill.
It was because they were precious!
Typically, refining a high-grade pill required an immense amount of raw materials, an alchemist's painstaking efforts, and significant sacrifices to succeed.
But now, with Su Xiaobai's cheat, not only was the process hassle-free, but the output was directly doubled. This meant double the yield and double the profit!
This feature wasn't just useful for ordinary pills—it was a game-changer for rare and high-grade pills!
The more powerful the pill, the more terrifying its potential impact!
"Hahaha… System, you're treating me too well!" Su Xiaobai couldn't help but laugh aloud.
"Dear Host, now that you're rich, the system has specially prepared a new function for you—[One-Click Collection Space]!"
"[One-Click Collection Space]: Dispatch a treasure-seeking goblin to search for rare treasures from heaven and earth. Unlocking it costs only 1.6 million!"
The system's voice chimed again.
What was that saying?
It's like getting a pillow when you're ready to sleep!
Just as Su Xiaobai was stressing over the difficulty of acquiring alchemy materials, the system went ahead and gave him the [One-Click Gathering Space]!
"Unlock it! Unlock it now!" Su Xiaobai exclaimed eagerly.
"Ding! Unlocking successful. [One-Click Collection Space] activated!"
In an instant, Su Xiaobai's consciousness shifted.
He found himself back in the void space, where a new space had appeared next to the One-Click Alchemy space.
Inside the new area, there was a golden, treasure-laden goblin that resembled a luxurious-looking weasel. It radiated an aura of wealth and extravagance.
"Host, do you wish to assign a specific location for deployment? If not, the system will randomly dispatch the treasure-seeking goblin to explore and collect!"the system asked.
"Go with automatic deployment!" Su Xiaobai replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, the treasure-seeking goblin vanished.
Outside the base, in an unknown location, the goblin appeared, sniffing the ground and the surrounding air. After detecting a particular scent, it immediately burrowed into the ground.
About two kilometers away, deep within a jungle, a massive python lay coiled.
This was a high-level B-rank beast, equivalent to an advanced martial master. Even a martial master would flee at the sight of it—its terrifying agility and venom, capable of corroding metal and stone, could kill a martial master on the spot!
Beside the python, nestled in a crack between some rocks, grew a peculiar purple flower.
This purple flower had intricate patterns on its leaves that resembled human eyes, earning it the name "Purple-Eyed Trileaf Flower."
The python, sensing movement, opened its crimson eyes and scanned the surroundings. Seeing no signs of life, it glanced at the flower and, reassured that it was safe, closed its eyes again to rest.
Another faint noise reached its ears.
Irritated, the python opened its eyes once more, its body radiating a fierce and murderous aura, ready to fight. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel-fire.ɴet
But again, no signs of life were visible.
Out of habit, it turned to check the Purple-Eyed Trileaf Flower.
To its horror, a golden goblin was perched on the rocks, digging up the very flower it had been guarding day and night!
Furious, the python let out an earth-shattering roar!
The treasure-seeking goblin, unfazed, quickly burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
The python gave chase for a while but stopped, fearing it would stray too far and leave the flower unprotected.
However, when it returned, the Purple-Eyed Trileaf Flower was gone!
Enraged, the python lashed its tail violently, toppling the surrounding trees…
"Ding! The treasure-seeking goblin has successfully collected: Purple-Eyed Trileaf Flower x1!"
Meanwhile, Su Xiaobai received the notification of his goblin's successful collection, grinning at his latest gain.
