The pitch-black phoenix eyes flickered with a glimmer, showing that the scope of interest was not small. It seemed that this stall owner had extremely high standards.
Ling Jiaxin remained silent, just sneering at Baili Hongzhuang. She wanted to see what Baili Hongzhuang could bring out to interest the stall owner.
Baili Hongzhuang examined the stall owner and suddenly noticed the bulging veins on his hand, like a roaring dragon, ferocious and terrifying.
A seductive and confident smile curled up at the corner of her mouth. She had found her target!
In the next moment, Baili Hongzhuang directly took out a white porcelain bottle from the Chaotic Ring and handed it to the stall owner.
"I believe you'll be interested in this."
Her words were light and pleasant, filled with confidence and certainty. If her guess was correct, what the stall owner lacked was the Expanding Meridian Pill!
The Expanding Meridian Pill was a second-grade pill used to widen the meridians. The wider the meridians, the more elemental power could flow through them, greatly benefiting the cultivator's strength.
However, the meridians themselves were not wide enough. Cultivators with certain conditions could take the Expanding Meridian Pill to widen their meridians, while those without conditions could only try to widen their meridians bit by bit using elemental power.
This process was extremely difficult and had to be done with great caution. If too much force was exerted, the result would be the same as the stall owner's current condition.
It was likely that the stall owner hadn't been able to cultivate for quite some time.
However, it was strange that the stall owner, who possessed so many demon crystals, was not a destitute person. Why hadn't he bought second-grade Expanding Meridian Pills?
Seeing Baili Hongzhuang's confidence, a trace of doubt flickered in the deep and indifferent eyes of the stall owner. He accepted the white porcelain bottle and opened the bottle cap, but his expression immediately froze!
The stall owner's gaze was fixed on the pill, and the unique texture and the scent of medicine emanating from it clearly told him that it was the Expanding Meridian Pill!
He wasn't an alchemist and had no knowledge of pills, but there was one kind of pill he recognized—the Expanding Meridian Pill!
When he had accidentally damaged his meridians in the past, he had searched high and low for an alchemist to treat him. The alchemist had told him that only the Expanding Meridian Pill could heal his injuries, but the recipe for the pill had already been lost!
He didn't believe it and searched everywhere, only to find that what the alchemist said was true.
Unable to continue cultivating and with his cultivation stuck, he had set up this stall, hoping to find the Expanding Meridian Pill someday.
After so many years, he had almost lost hope, but the pill in front of him—it was unmistakably the Expanding Meridian Pill!
Ling Jiaxin and the others looked at the stall owner in confusion. They saw the stall owner holding the white porcelain bottle, his hand trembling, completely immersed in his own world.
What had Baili Hongzhuang given the stall owner that would make him show such an expression?
Ling Jiaxin frowned. At this moment, she had a bad premonition.
The curve of Baili Hongzhuang's lips slightly lifted. From the stall owner's expression, she had already confirmed that her judgment was correct.
After a while, the stall owner's gaze finally fell on Baili Hongzhuang. His bloodshot eyes contained repression and nervousness as he asked, "Is this the Expanding Meridian Pill?"
His reddened eyes revealed his determination and composure, but his trembling hand exposed his fear.
He was afraid that Baili Hongzhuang would once again destroy his hope!
When Ling Jiaxin heard the words "Expanding Meridian Pill," she couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Haha, stall owner, it seems like you're confused!"
"The recipe for the Expanding Meridian Pill has long been lost. There is no Expanding Meridian Pill in this world!"
