I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1548: Chapter 788: Su Ziluo, Emperor Chen Qing_4

Subsequently, he stared with widened eyes, completely dumbstruck.

“Senior Brother…”

Seeing him like this, Elder Xinghuo was also surprised.

“Huh…”

However, Xing Yun Shang Ren, who led a sect as its elder, quickly regained his composure. He took a deep breath and handed the jade slip to Elder Xinghuo beside him, who, upon seeing it, was also shocked.

“From which Immortal book jade slip did the First Origin Dao Palace obtain this alchemy recipe?”

Xing Yun Shang Ren asked Ye Qing with a solemn expression.

“After all, True Lord Yuan is an Ascended Monk, with his cultivation level at that time, it was normal for him to obtain it from any dangerous secret land within the Five Continents and Four Seas as if it was flat land.”

Ye Qing found an excuse and then took out another jade slip.

“This contains the complete alchemy recipe.”

Hearing him say this, Xing Yun Shang Ren’s breathing became slightly rapid.

Although they already had the alchemy recipe for Foundation Building Pill, if they could obtain the recipe for the Foundation Establishment Trithings, with their control over the cultivator resources in Dong Yue Region, they could easily increase the number of their Foundation Establishment Practitioners by two to three percent in a short time.

And with more Foundation Establishment layers, there would be more who could level up to Golden Core Cultivator.

Gold Core and then on to Nascent Soul; already owning the Three Lights Divine Water, they were only second to the Holy Land in terms of the number of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

If they could have a few more, they might even directly challenge the First Origin Dao Palace.

Thinking this way, while Xing Yun Shang Ren’s heart was aflame, he also felt puzzled.

According to the customs of his sect, such an alchemy recipe should definitely be hidden and not disclosed.

Had the First Origin Dao Palace closed themselves off for a hundred years to cultivate their lower-level disciples deeply with the Foundation Establishment Trithings, building up their strength?

As Xing Yun Shang Ren thought this, he couldn’t help but ask, “Why would the First Origin Dao Palace be willing to exchange such an important alchemy recipe for the Three Lights Divine Water?”

“Because the main trade is with our Jiutian Dangmo Sect, the primary usage rights of the Foundation Establishment Trithings are with our sect, and the Three Lights Divine Water you are trading is just incidental.”

As soon as Ye Qing said this, Xing Yun Shang Ren understood.

So it seemed that the alchemy recipe had already been second-hand by the time it reached Star Heaven Dao Sect.

Even so, exchanging for the Three Lights Divine Water was more than sufficient.

“If that’s the case, let’s settle the matter like this.”

As he spoke, Xing Yun Shang Ren looked at the complete Foundation Establishment Trithings alchemy recipe in Ye Qing’s hand.

“Oh, wouldn’t that be a bit improper?”

Ye Qing asked with a hint of sarcasm, but Xing Yun Shang Ren simply smiled lightly and phrased it differently.

“As long as the Primordial Taoist Child leaves a name, I will record it in the register, that way it won’t be considered of unknown origin.”

After hearing this, Ye Qing still did not hand over the alchemy recipe for the Foundation Establishment Trithings.

“This is a bottle of Three Lights Divine Water that has just been finished condensing, originally intended for a Sand-handling Officer of the Flying Sand Sect, it can be exchanged with the Primordial Taoist Child first.”

Thinking this was the intention, Xing Yun Shang Ren immediately took out a light blue jade vial from his storage bag.

“In addition, I have another requirement.”

But Ye Qing did not accept it.

“Please speak.”

Xing Yun Shang Ren said calmly.

“The magic artifact that the Primordial Taoist Child has just awakened needs some fourth-grade spirit materials for nourishment in order to continue to grow, here is the list, it should be included along with the Three Lights Divine Water as part of the trade for the alchemy recipe.”

Originally, Chen Mobai only wanted the Three Lights Divine Water, but Ye Qing accurately calculated the importance of the Foundation Establishment Trithings to Star Heaven Dao Sect, allowing him to make some additional demands.

Chen Mobai thought about it and directly listed all five types of fourth-grade spirit materials needed for his “Red Misty Cloud Silk” to level up.

Because at this Beidou Conference, there happened to be some, the Water Mist Ice Crystal and the Clear Wind Evil that were consumed could also be scavenged for free again.

In addition, he also included the Rank-4 Fire Yang Evil into the list.

Chen Mobai had considered listing the Rank-4 medicinal herbs he needed as well, but then he thought of how he had previously had Yan Shaoyin and others collect herbs here. He feared that the Star Heaven Dao Sect could follow this clue and find out, and moreover, the items were just too many. The Star Heaven Dao Sect was not a gullible fool and would not possibly agree to all of them.

“These six Rank-4 spirit materials, aren’t they a bit too much?”

After looking at them, Xing Yun Shang Ren indeed slightly frowned as expected.

“I actually think it’s not too many.”

Upon hearing this from Ye Qing, Xing Yun Shang Ren fell silent for a moment, weighed the values of both sides, and ultimately still sighed and nodded in agreement.

“Junior brother, go and fetch these items.”

Elder Xinghuo nodded, knowing the importance of the matter, took the list, and stepped out.

“Furthermore, there’s one more thing. This Foundation Establishment Trithings, our Jiutian Dangmo Sect will set up branch stores or collaborate with local sects in the domains of the East Continent to refine and sell them, striving to enhance the overall strength of Eastern Continent cultivators before opening up new lands.”

“In that case, the value of this alchemy recipe will not be so high anymore.”

After hearing this, Xing Yun Shang Ren frowned, suddenly somewhat reluctant to make the exchange.

“The Dong Yue Region will be left to your Star Heaven Dao Sect, and our sect will not interfere.”

Ye Qing knew he would say this and responded accordingly.

“Agreed, but our commerce association expects to sell this Foundation Establishment Trithings throughout the East Continent as well.”

Xing Yun Shang Ren spoke calmly, and after hearing this, Ye Qing made eye contact with him and, after a long time, nodded.

In that case, it would be a competition between the two sects’ alchemy skills and salesmanship.

In terms of the art of alchemy, the two sects shouldn’t be too far apart, but regarding sales…

Ye Qing genuinely felt that perhaps his sect’s Nine Heavens Merchant Association might not match up to the Starry Sky Commerce Guild.

But to have this outcome, it was already very good.

Before long, Elder Xinghuo returned, took out the six Rank-4 spirit materials one by one, and placed them on the table.

“Please!”

Xing Yun Shang Ren added the Three Lights Divine Water to the collection and pushed them towards Ye Qing. After Ye Qing checked them, he waved his hand and stored all the items into his storage bag.

Now with the complete Foundation Establishment Trithings alchemy recipe in hand, Xing Yun Shang Ren couldn’t wait to go over it.

After a good while, his brow furrowed slightly.

The alchemy recipe was complete, indeed.

But there were some processes that even he, an Alchemy Grandmaster, found puzzling.

For instance, it was written that many steps required a “device” known as a Pill Furnace for better reactions and synthesis; it was unclear whether substituting it with a different Pill Furnace would yield the same effect.

However, this also confirmed to Xing Yun Shang Ren that the Foundation Establishment Trithings was an Ancient Elixir Method from the Immortal Book Jade Slip.

Because he had seen the sect’s inherited Immortal Book Jade Slip, which recorded the Three Light Divine Water Pill Recipe, the content was roughly the same. Many of the key steps and specialized terms needed to be deciphered using knowledge from the Tianhe Realm.

However, compared to the Three Lights Divine Water, the medicinal herbs required for this Foundation Establishment Trithings were extremely common. Although the process was more complex and cumbersome than that for the Three Lights Divine Water, he was confident that by leveraging the profound resources of the Star Heaven Dao Sect, he could perfectly reproduce this ancient method after thousands of trials and refining attempts.

The thought excited Xing Yun Shang Ren, and he couldn’t wait to take his leave.

“May I know how to address the Primordial Taoist Child?”

Of course, before leaving, he didn’t forget to ask this question.

“Emperor Chen Qing!”

Ye Qing gave this pseudonym.

Primordial Taoist Child, Emperor Chen Qing!
