Chapter 108: A Highly Anticipated New Function

Among the Martial Artists in this world, only Alchemists have a relatively abundant supply of Medicinal Pills.

However, the conditions to become an Alchemist are truly too harsh.

First, the cultivation Realm cannot be low; even the lowest-level pill apprentice must be a Formal Martial Artist.

Second, one needs to master a fire-attribute Cultivation Technique, which eliminates most Martial Artists.

Third, one needs talent in the Dao of Alchemy; if one has the aptitude of a dull stone, it is impossible to become an Alchemist.

Fourth, one must have a master to teach them hands-on, or at the very least, have an Alchemist's Legacy to study.

Fifth, learning Alchemy requires consuming a large amount of Materials, which ordinary Martial Artists cannot possibly afford.

In short, becoming an Alchemist is super, super difficult!

Moreover, even Alchemists cannot have an endless supply of Medicinal Pills to consume, as the Materials for Alchemy are also agonizingly expensive.

"Sigh, the further I go, the more expensive the Medicinal Pills become. It seems I won't have any to eat in the future."

Su Lang sighed again. Although he could earn hundreds of thousands of gold coins every day, it wasn't enough to upgrade the System functions.

Furthermore, those Tier 8 and Tier 9 Medicinal Pills sell for millions apiece; he simply couldn't afford that kind of expense.

As for robbing people?

Su Lang was not such an unprincipled person!

He wouldn't stoop to such trashy behavior as robbing people with whom he had no grudges!

Suddenly!

"Ding! host, as long as you upgrade all System functions to Level 7 simultaneously, you can obtain the activation permission for the One-Click Pill Refining Function!"

"What!?"

The System prompt stunned Su Lang.

Immediately after, Su Lang snapped back to reality, his eyes widening abruptly!

"The One-Click Pill Refining Function!?"

"Holy crap, One-Click Alchemy! Just thinking about it is awesome!"

"Once activated, I'll be able to have an endless supply of Medicinal Pills!?"

"Good heavens, these Medicinal Pills can not only be consumed but also sold! A single Tier 9 Medicinal Pill is worth millions of gold coins!"

Thinking of the benefits the new function would bring, a look of astonishing excitement welled up in Su Lang's eyes!

However, he quickly calmed down.

After all, his four functions were still lingering at Level 5 or 6; upgrading them all to Level 7 would require 240 million gold coins!

Even converting that into Low-Grade Spirit Stones, that's 2.4 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!

This was absolutely a terrifying astronomical figure!

"With such a massive consumption, I'm afraid the entire Red Maple City stronghold wouldn't be able to support it!"

Su Lang pondered, "In that case, I must leave Red Maple City and go to a larger stronghold. Then… where should I go?"

Just as Su Lang was deep in thought, panicked shouts suddenly came from outside.

"Lord Su Lang!"

"Lord Su Lang!"

"…"

"Hmm? It's Yin Zhou and Yu Feng and the others."

"Didn't Yin Zhou just leave a while ago? Why is he back?"

Su Lang's eyes showed confusion, but then he suddenly realized something.

He gave a sheepish smile and waved his hand, dispelling the icy chill that had frozen the entire floor.

Very quickly, the three of them, including Yin Zhou, appeared before Su Lang with expressions of utter disbelief.

"Lord Su Lang, was it you who froze the 106th floor of the Alliance building!?"

"Lord Su Lang, could it be that you have already learned the basics of the Snow-Blowing Seamless Trace Diagram!?"

"Oh heavens, this can't be real, right? We've studied it for decades and couldn't even get a clue!"

Upon seeing Su Lang, the three of them immediately asked the questions that had been bottled up in their hearts.

Previously, they had received a report saying that the Alliance building had been frozen and it was snowing, but they thought it was fake.

Only after their subordinates guaranteed it with their lives did they return to the Alliance building, albeit skeptically.

Then they saw a scene that shocked them beyond measure:

— The Alliance building was actually snowing, and countless Martial Artists were watching from all around.

Immediately after, they entered the Alliance building and reached the 106th floor, only to find they couldn't withstand it at all and nearly froze to death.

Consequently, that led to the scene where they called out to Su Lang.

After asking their questions, the three of them stared wide-eyed, waiting for Su Lang's answer.

Actually, they knew the answer in their hearts, but they just wanted to get a definitive confirmation from Su Lang.

"Yes, you guessed correctly!"

Su Lang smiled slightly, "I have learned the basics of the Snow-Blowing Seamless Trace Diagram."
