I Can Extract Everything

"Sister Xue, is the Apprentice Alchemist exam very difficult?"

Qin Yi curiously asked as he stared at Xue Chan.

This question was a question he had been pressing on since the start of their conversation about alchemy. At that time, he didn't ask because he thought it was too early for him to ask such a thing.

However, he had decided to attend the Apprentice Alchemist exam held by the Secondary Profession Association this year. Therefore, this question became relevant to him.

Xue Chan paused when she heard this question. Her face turned solemn as she answered.

"The Apprentice Alchemist Exam is divided into three stages; the Written Examination, the Ingredients Recognition Examination, and the Pill Concocting Examination. Unfortunately, I can't give you the details because at that time I couldn't even pass the written exam, let alone the following two stages."

"Moreover, I heard that the questions in the written exam change every year, so it's useless even if you intentionally memorize or take notes during the exam."

"Is that so? What a pity..."

Qin Yi felt slightly disappointed.

He initially thought he could get the grid from Xue Chan, but apparently, this girl also had no idea about the exam.

It seemed that all he could do at the moment is study more. But the problem is, where should he learn more alchemy from?

He had already read all the books that Elder Gu had given him and the Myriad Books Library only had books that recorded heaven and earth materials, not alchemy books.

Perhaps, he should go to Ancient Dragon City to look for an opportunity.

Apart from that, he also needed to buy some necessities in the city.

With Qin Yi's current cultivation base, he wasn't allowed to leave the sect yet, but going to the city would no longer be a problem if he used the Void Jump and the Hidden Night Cape.

After that, Qin Yi and Xue Chan started to talk about their shift work.

Since Lan Qianhua allowed them to cultivate and practice alchemy here, Xue Chan happily took over Lu Yun's original working hours.

She would tend the garden from morning to evening. Meanwhile, there was no change in Qin Yi's working hours; he will work his usual hours.

After Qin Yi left Spirit Flower Peak, he headed straight to his cave to take some rest.

The days just went like this.

Apart from practicing and working, he still took some time to rest.

After he woke up, he immediately prepared to go to the city.

However, when he used the Hidden Night Cape, he discovered something unexpected.

The Hidden Night Cape's invisibility ability turns out to be inactive during the day, and it can only be active at night.

When this artifact took its name from the word "Night", it really meant it.

However, he also discovered another fact of this artifact. Although it couldn't hide Qin Yi's figure with his invisibility ability, it could hide his presence.

In other words, Hidden Night Cape have different abilities at each time alternation. During the day, it can hide the user's presence, and at night it can hide the user's figure.

What an interesting artifact! Qin Yi thought.

Unfortunately, it is just a Normal Artifact; it would be great if it were a Spirit Artifact.

Even though Qin Yi couldn't use invisibility, he still decided to use it to go to the city.

At least it covered his figure, and he was inconspicuous while wearing it.

In the next moment, he used Void Jump and disappeared from his cave.

***

As one of the major cities in the cultivation world, Ancient Dragon City was already filled with people since early in the morning, and cultivators could be seen everywhere.

With various styles of people dressed, Qin Yi, who was wearing a full black cape, looked inconspicuous in people's eyes.

He is low key since Hidden Night Cape concealed his presence, and only someone who accidentally sees him can prove that he exists.

The Ancient Dragon City is large and has many places worth visiting. However, today he had a clear purpose for coming here.

First, he wanted to go to the market and buy various kinds of heaven and earth materials from seed merchants.

Currently, what the Mystical Garden lacks other than living things are heaven and earth materials. With the density of the spiritual energy in that land, it would be a pity not to cultivate all kinds of heaven and earth materials.

This time, he came to the city without Gao Peng. Therefore, he had no person to guide him to the market.

Hence, he can only wander around the city by himself and hope to find it along the way.

When he came here with Gao Peng last time, he went to the Seeking Miracle Pavilion, and it was in the Miracle Stones market area; it was different from a public market.

"Did you hear, there is someone selling dragon materials in the market?"

"Dragon materials? What kind of dragon materials?"

"It's a dragon material from a Rank 2 Magical Beast Turtle Lava Dragon. I heard the seller managed to hunt it from Fire Pit Mountain."

"Fire Pit Mountain? Someone unexpectedly dares to hunt magical beasts from that place?"

"Yeah, I was surprised too. After all, Fire Pit Mountain is a very unsuitable place for humans to live in. I heard that the seller is a Foundation Establishment cultivator who excels at ice cultivation techniques. That's why he was able to stay in Fire Pit Mountain for a long time."

"The ice cultivation technique he practices must be not an ordinary ice cultivation technique. After all, many cultivators practice the ice cultivation technique, but only he can withstand the hellish heat on that mountain."

"Anyway, that kind of sale is worth watching. Let's go there!"

Qin Yi accidentally listened to the conversation between the two men behind him.

He had also read the Fire Pit Mountain's information.

The Fire Pit Mountain was located at a distance of 200 km from Ancient Dragon City. It was a bit far away, but to cultivators, that distance was nothing.

The mountain is surrounded by extreme heat, making that place very unsuitable for living creatures like humans. Only magical beasts with the fire-based element could live and adapt in such a place.

However, cultivators were adventurous people; as long as there was an opportunity, they were willing to do anything, even if it required them to dive into the fire pit.

Qin Yi also needed dragon blood to build a nest for the Dragon Blood Tree. The news of this dragon materials seller is like a gift from God for him.

Even though he couldn't extract the seller, he might be able to extract the buyer. He only hopes that the buyer isn't a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Thus, Qin Yi stopped his steps and let the two people behind him get ahead of him. After that, he secretly followed them into the market from behind.

About half an hour later, they finally arrived at the market.

This market space is quite lively, with people coming and going. It was even more enthusiastic than the situation in other places in this city.

Qin Yi walked into this market with great interest.

With the understanding of the market, he also roughly understood the distribution here, and the entire market can be called Dragon Lane Street. There are many kinds of items for sale here, including magical beast meat, heaven and earth materials, pills, and others.

Following behind the two strangers, he walked into this spacious and lively place.

He saw that every block of land in this market was occupied by a shop selling certain items from small to large scale ones.

On the first block on the left, he saw a shop selling pills, but most of them were low-rank pills such as Qi Strengthening Pill, Healing Pill, Energy Restoration Pill and such.

Moving forward, there was a shop selling unique clothes for cultivators. Such dresses are usually made not of ordinary materials but also not of materials that are too expensive. After all, this is a public market, unlike a clothing store opened by big forces.

As Qin Yi continued to walk, he finally arrived at an open area by following these two people. This place was an area for loose cultivators, peddlers or caravans to sell their items.
