When Qin Ming arrived, he was already thinking.

About how to obtain intelligence from Profound Creek Valley.

Qin Ming had considered using his identity as a dual skill Tier Two High-Grade Master to infiltrate Profound Creek Valley.

But firstly, his Wangyue Island needed his supervision, and secondly, even if he obtained the Golden Core Formation Pill Formula, the target would be too obvious and would definitely be marked by Profound Creek Valley.

So it seems, he can only proceed gradually and cannot act too hastily.

"Haha! Haven't I come? Does Shopkeeper Xu not welcome me?" Qin Ming said with a smile.

Xu Jing knew he was joking, so she smiled and said, "How could that be? Master Qin coming here naturally makes our pavilion shine brightly."

"Please, have a seat in the private room. I will prepare a pot of Spirit Tea for Master Qin."

Qin Ming followed Xu Jing to a luxurious private room on the fourth floor.

Xu Jing, graceful and reserved, gently prepared Spirit Tea for Qin Ming, then said with a bright smile, "I've heard that the Spirit-Gathering Tea Master Qin cultivates is a masterpiece in the Spirit Nest Islands' Cultivation Realm."

"I wonder if our pavilion's Spirit Tea will suit Fellow Daoist Qin's taste."

Qin Ming smiled lightly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and his eyes lit up with surprise, "Shopkeeper Xu really knows how to joke, this Spirit Tea has already reached the Tier Two Middle-Grade level, even slightly surpassing my Spirit-Gathering Tea."

"It must not have been grown by an ordinary cultivator, right?"

"Also, Shopkeeper Xu can just call me Fellow Daoist Qin, no need to be too formal."

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Qin." Xu Jing nodded gently, then continued, "Fellow Daoist Qin is indeed a top Spirit Plant Master of Wei Country, recognizing the grade and origin of my Spirit Tea with just a sip."

"You're right, this tea is called Cold Crystal Tea, and its growth conditions are stringent. It was cultivated by an elder in my family, there's only one plant, and it's scarce. I had to plead with them for a long time to get a few pounds, and today I brewed a pot especially for your visit, Fellow Daoist Qin."

As Qin Ming savored the tea, his eyes lit up upon hearing the words 'family elder'.

"I'm quite honored to be able to taste this tea."

"I wonder who is this esteemed elder of Shopkeeper Xu? Are they also a Spirit Plant Master?" Qin Ming asked without showing his curiosity.

Xu Jing was taken aback but still frankly replied, "Yes, Fellow Daoist Qin, I believe Fellow Daoist Lvu Liang should have mentioned that our Pill Furnace Pavilion is part of Liang Country's Cultivation Realm and Profound Creek Valley's industry."

"That elder of mine is my grandfather, haha!"

"He currently holds the position of elder in the Spirit Medicine Garden of Profound Creek Valley's Inner Sect, and like Fellow Daoist Qin, he is also a Spirit Plant Master."

"It's just that his skill level is a bit lower than Fellow Daoist Qin's, as he is a Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Plant Master."

Qin Ming has a good reputation in Vast Sea Immortal City, so Xu Jing did not hide her background much, thinking this could perhaps strengthen their relationship.

Ever since Qin Ming arrived, she had been contemplating how to attract this great figure from Mirror Snow Pavilion to their side.

"Oh? Is that so? I would welcome the chance to exchange insights on the Path of Spiritual Plants with your grandfather if possible," Qin Ming said slowly.

Xu Jing was delighted by Qin Ming's attitude, so she said, "Are you serious, Fellow Daoist Qin? My grandfather has long admired your reputation."

"If he could exchange insights with a Spirit Plant Master like you, he would be absolutely delighted."

"I'll be sure to pass on the message."

Qin Ming stopped at this point and did not delve any further into this topic, as making it too obvious would not be wise.

"My purpose for coming is to sell a batch of pills to your pavilion, and also to purchase some pill formulas."

Xu Jing's eyes lit up at these words, "That's wonderful!"

"Let's not mince words. When it comes to High-Tier Pill Formulas, our pavilion probably is the best-stocked in all of Vast Sea Immortal City."

Qin Ming then took out two exquisite jade bottles and placed them on the table.

Xu Jing picked up a jade bottle and opened it to find five red Spirit Pills lying quietly inside, emanating an astonishing aura. She was stunned, "Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Pills, Blood Evil Pill, and Blood Bone Pill!!"

"Fellow Daoist Qin, you crafted them so quickly?"

It should be noted that Tier Two Middle-Grade Spirit Pills are not easy to craft; she originally thought it would take at least three to five years before Qin Ming could produce them.

Even within Profound Creek Valley, their Tier Two High-Grade Grand Alchemists had a high failure rate when crafting these pills, despite ten years of dedicated research.

"Just lucky." Qin Ming said modestly.

Xu Jing's eyes gleamed, and after pondering a moment she said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, these Blood Evil Pill and Blood Bone Pill are treasures for Body Refining Cultivators."

"They are quite valuable, and I can decide to purchase them at fifty thousand Spirit Stones per bottle, which is twenty percent higher than the market price."

"What do you think, Fellow Daoist Qin?"

"Additionally, for any pill formulas you purchase, I can offer a thirty percent discount."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming nodded. The conditions offered were already quite generous.

Moreover, these two bottles of Blood Evil Pill and Blood Bone Pill were not crafted using Demon Ape flesh but with other Tier Two Demon Beast flesh, so the effect would not match those he crafted for himself.

"Deal."

Xu Jing was overjoyed at his straightforwardness, as she was pondering whether to concede further.

Fellow Daoist Qin seeing Shopkeeper Xu's excited expression, had a faint smile; she didn't realize he had ulterior motives beyond the deal.

"What kind of pill formulas does Fellow Daoist Qin need? I will settle it all for you," Xu Jing said with a smile.

Qin Ming pondered for a moment and then said, "Give me a copy of your highest-tier pill formulas."
