The Tianbao Archipelago is an open area, serving as the headquarters of Tianbao Tower established in Dongzhou Academy.

Initially, there was only one Tianbao Island, but as warriors found the prices of items on Tianbao Island too high, they started setting up their own stalls nearby. Over time, more islands appeared around Tianbao Island, forming a vast trading archipelago!

On the Tianbao Archipelago, as long as you have money, you can buy anything you need.

Swish—

A streak of light flashed in mid-air, appearing outside the Tianbao Archipelago.

This person was Lin Bai, who had just left Dragon Raising Island and hurried to the Tianbao Archipelago without stopping!

"Let's first take a stroll in Tianbao Tower!"

"See if there's a suitable alchemy furnace!"

Lin Bai flashed, heading straight for Tianbao Island.

On Tianbao Island, there is only one retailer, the world-renowned Tianbao Tower on the Barbarian Ancient Continent.

Upon entering Tianbao Tower.

A sweet and charming maid walked up with a smile, bowing slightly, and said with a smile, "Greetings, Senior Brother of the Inner Gate, I am Outer Sect Disciple Ling Xiang, serving as a maid in Tianbao Tower. Is there anything I can help Senior Brother with?"

The maid smiled as she spoke.

Lin Bai walked through the hall, calmly saying, "Outer Sect Disciples work in Tianbao Tower too?"

Maid Ling Xiang laughed, "Hehe, Senior Brother, we Outer Sect Disciples are not like you Inner Disciples who have so many cultivation resources to rise effortlessly. We can only rely on our own skills!"

"Many Outer Sect Disciples hope to find some work in Tianbao Tower to earn cultivation resources!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly, saying, "So that's how it is."

Maid Ling Xiang smiled, "Is it the first time for Senior Brother to visit Tianbao Island? Is there something you need? I am quite familiar with this place, and if Senior Brother needs help, I can guide you!"

Lin Bai smiled, "I need some spiritual medicine, and an elixir furnace!"

"Elixir furnace? Is Senior Brother an alchemist? May I ask how many-grade alchemist Senior Brother is..." Maid Ling Xiang's eyes lit up immediately, asking curiously.

"How many-grade..." Lin Bai was dumbfounded.

Alchemy was just a sudden interest for Lin Bai; he had not obtained the qualification.

The so-called grade of an alchemist refers to the grade of elixir pills an alchemist can refine.

Elixir pills are divided into nine grades, above which are king-level elixirs.

Though Lin Bai does not have a grade, he can likely refine some nine-grade elixir pills even if he cannot easily refine king-level elixirs.

Of course, Lin Bai does not have a grade, and at this moment, it is not possible to directly tell Ling Xiang that he can refine nine-grade elixir pills. After all, without qualification, even if Lin Bai says it, Ling Xiang will not believe it.

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "It was just a sudden interest!"

"I wonder if there are any alchemy furnaces for sale here?"

Ling Xiang was stunned for a moment, then replied with a smile, "There certainly are."

"Senior Brother, come with me!"

With these words, Ling Xiang led Lin Bai to another grand hall.

Before long, Ling Xiang led Lin Bai into a magnificent hall.

Inside this hall, there are formations, each containing an alchemy furnace.

"This is the hall where alchemy furnaces are for sale; Senior Brother can take a look around." Ling Xiang smiled.

Lin Bai nodded silently and walked forward.

In front of Lin Bai was a bronze elixir furnace, exuding a rich aroma of medicine.

Ling Xiang smiled, "This elixir furnace is called the Multiple-Refining Furnace, named because once a hundred alchemists have used it to refine elixirs. The furnace holds a strong spirit of spiritual medicine, which can increase the probability of elixir formation and enhance elixir grade for future alchemists!"

Lin Bai nodded slightly, "Not bad!"

Ling Xiang smiled, "Senior Brother, this elixir furnace is a scarce item in Tianbao Tower, priced reasonably at only fifty thousand spirit liquid!"

"Fifty thousand..." Lin Bai gasped inwardly, but did not show it on his face.

Nonetheless, Lin Bai could see that the Multiple-Refining Furnace was indeed extraordinary, having been used by over a hundred alchemists, rich in the spirit of elixir, able to increase the probability of elixir formation and enhance elixir grade. Priced at fifty thousand spirit liquid, it is not expensive.

However, Lin Bai unfortunately has only over five thousand spirit liquid, far from enough to purchase the Multiple-Refining Furnace!

Following this, Lin Bai continued wandering in the great hall.

"Senior Brother, this is the Herbs Furnace, priced at thirty thousand spirit liquid..."

"Senior Brother, this is the Spiritual Wood Furnace, priced at forty thousand spirit liquid..."

"Senior Brother, this..., priced at seventy thousand spirit liquid!"

"Senior Brother..."

Every time Lin Bai looked at an alchemy furnace, Ling Xiang eagerly introduced it from the side.

But after half an hour, Lin Bai had looked over nearly a thousand alchemy furnaces in the hall, and none were priced below ten thousand spirit liquid.

At this point, Ling Xiang could see that Lin Bai was lacking funds!

Ling Xiang smiled sweetly and said, "If Senior Brother finds the alchemy furnaces here too expensive, I can point Senior Brother toward a better path!"

Lin Bai's eyes brightened, then he smiled, "Ling Xiang, Junior Sister, you noticed, I don't have much spirit liquid!"

Ling Xiang laughed, "Hehe, Senior Brother need not be embarrassed, this is quite normal!"

Lin Bai smiled gently, "I wonder what path Junior Sister mentioned?"

Ling Xiang glanced around with her beautiful eyes, confirmed no one was present, and moved a bit closer to Lin Bai, saying, "Senior Brother, on the Tianbao Archipelago, there is a place called Blackstone Roland Island, which is a black market!"

"Things sold on the black market are cheaper than those sold on the Tianbao Archipelago!"

"If Senior Brother lacks spirit liquid but indeed wants to buy an alchemy furnace, he can take a look at Blackstone Roland Island!"

Lin Bai's eyes lit up, "Blackstone Roland Island?"

Ling Xiang smiled, "But I must also remind Senior Brother, the goods sold on Blackstone Roland Island mostly come from warriors who have killed their opponents and obtained treasures which originally belonged to others. If discovered, it could bring disaster!"

"For example, if Senior Brother wants to purchase an alchemy furnace, these are usually items with owners. Even if Senior Brother manages to buy one on Blackstone Roland Island, it would be something obtained after an alchemist was killed!"

"If such items are recognized by this alchemist's friends, Senior Brother could be in trouble."

"Neither the alchemists from Tianbao Tower nor those from Dongzhou Academy are easy to provoke!"

Ling Xiang spoke softly.

Lin Bai asked curiously, "Alchemists have factions?"

Ling Xiang replied with a smile, "Tianbao Tower is primarily a business entity and also enshrines alchemists; meanwhile, Dongzhou Academy attracts talents from across the continent, definitely having alchemists within!"

"Therefore, alchemists on the God-Demon Sea are divided into two factions. One is Tianbao Tower's alchemists; the other is Dongzhou Academy's alchemists!"
