I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 218: Chapter 190: Alchemy Service (800 Monthly Tickets Bonus)

[Yuebai Girl:

I acquired a jar of Immortal Drunk, drank too much, and was intoxicated for half a year.

Just sobered up a few days ago and suddenly remembered that your master Jiuchuan seemed to be nagging a few words in my ear before he left.

He said you ruined your body playing around? Your Fire Dao Platform is mutating?

You’re a real daredevil, girl!

I’m telling you, this is absolutely not a good thing, don’t get complacent, you’re in big trouble, do you know that?

Even if I gather all the Spiritual Objects for you now, you won’t survive the refining!

Do you know that apart from Spiritual Objects transforming and grass and wood becoming demons, the weakest bodies compared to the Human Clan are grass and wood? The flesh and blood of the Human Clan are the least resistant.

I was too intoxicated at the time, and didn’t quite understand how you managed to accommodate so much Fire Evil Spiritual Energy, but I’m telling you, such good fortune won’t happen twice.

Spiritual Body can only contain one!

If a second Spiritual Object starts refining your body, it will inevitably cause the Spiritual Body to clash, and you will... boom!

Do you know how perilous Lu Nanzhi’s situation was back then? If I hadn’t intervened timely, she would’ve perished!

The only solution is for you to form a Nascent Soul, which can reshape the flesh and blood.

Dumbfounded, aren’t you? You can’t even pass the Core Formation barrier!

You youngsters all treat immortal cultivation as a game, molding yourselves like clay figures, without realizing how dangerous a single misstep in cultivation truly is!

Your master is too naive, thinking the Five Elements Path can accommodate everything. He’s an Iron Skin Great Nascent Soul, while you’re just a fragile Little Foundation Establishment!

Scared now, aren’t you? If you were in front of me, I’d definitely twist off your ear!

...

(Turn the page)

...

Alright, I won’t scare you anymore. Your master eventually realized the seriousness, worried about you making mistakes, and asked me to help ponder a solution.

It’s not like there’s no resolution to this, it’s your destined tribulation, and the Heavenly Dao left you a lifeline early on.

Your Cloud Mushroom Grass bloodline is your lifeline. Before you start absorbing other Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, you’d better find a way to enhance your Cloud Mushroom Grass bloodline.

The demons of the Grass and Wood Clan have ways to seize the essence of other Spirit Grasses. However, it’s difficult to obtain due to strict Demon Clan regulations, and I’m trying to assist you.

The powerful regenerative ability of the Immortal Ganoderma Clan can repair your body when your Spiritual Body clashes and your body collapses. The higher the bloodline purity, the greater your chances of survival.

Of course, you will become an extraordinary being due to this, yet extraordinary beings rarely cultivate to the Golden Core Stage. I’m also uncertain if their appearance can change.

To resolve this, you must seek the Witch Clan; extraordinary beings are a new race created by the ancient Witch Clan.

Additionally, I’ve enclosed a Method with the letter, originally devised during Lu Nanzhi’s mishap with her Water Spirit Body mixing with Ice Spiritual Energy, and revised it for you recently.

This Method can gather all your Fire Evil Spiritual Energy within the mutated Fire Dao Platform without dispersing, restoring your body to its original flesh and blood form.

You will lose the Fire Evil Spiritual Body but can avoid severe clashes between the Spiritual Bodies, allowing better accommodation of a second Spiritual Object.

Once the second Spiritual Object has refined your body, you still need to restore your body.

Your Core Formation road is destined to be perilous and arduous, not only causing immense pain to your body but also being a harsh test to your mindset. I hope you will rise to the challenge and turn misfortune into fortune.

Afterwards, refine your body thoroughly, and seize any chance to find some body refining cultivation techniques of Buddhist Monks, and cultivate to achieve a Vajra Unbreakable Body. No matter what kind of Spiritual Body, it won’t damage your body, nor hinder your operation of Fire Evil Spiritual Energy or other Special Spiritual Energy, resembling little difference from a Spiritual Body.

As you journey outside, be cautious, trust no one easily. If it gets tough, return for a rest.

Remember to bring some fine wine back, or I’ll twist off your ear if you return empty-handed.

Master’s advice]

Jiang Yuebai sat on the earthen mound outside Hongyan Building, reading the letter in her hand twice.

Initially, she was truly frightened by the first page of the Supreme Elder’s words, buzzing in her head, feeling like her Immortal Path had reached its end.

After reading the later part, she relaxed, even her previous concerns about becoming an extraordinary being dissipated significantly. Compared to staying alive, becoming an extraordinary being really isn’t much; it’s just growing grass on one’s head and taking root at one’s feet.

However,

Hands turning into vines, flowers blooming on the nose...

The image was too vivid, and Jiang Yuebai felt numb.

”It’s indeed a harsh test of mindset, my mindset is far too lacking.”

Extraordinary beings are regarded as slaves in the Human Clan’s territory, holding low status, and becoming an extraordinary being would impede her journey. Even if transforming is inevitable, now isn’t the time.

”I should first find the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, otherwise without sufficient strength to protect myself, I might end up being captured as a slave. Ideally, I should gather the other four Spiritual Objects and return to the sect before transforming.”

Jiang Yuebai stood up, brushed the dust off her clothes, and saw someone in the distance posting new notices on the bulletin board, surrounded by a crowd.

”Once the Quicksand Domain matter is over, I should head to the Witch Clan in the Baipu Domain to investigate the issue of Extraordinary People.”

Jiang Yuebai muttered as she approached the bulletin board, tiptoeing and craning her neck to see the posted content.

”Latest news, the Sha Clan has allied with the Quicksand Domain Business Alliance and decided to support the Baji Sect as the leader of all Martial Arts Sects, aiming to eliminate all Buddhist Sects in the Quicksand Domain.”

”Is it true this time? I hope it’s not fake news like before.”

”It should be true this time. Now, people from the Buddhist Sect are retreating to the Western Unreturning Sea, and the Baji Sect is gathering people from all Martial Arts Sects to pursue them. Looks like the final battle is near.”

”The last time all the sects in the Quicksand Domain gathered at the Unreturning Sea was over a hundred years ago to destroy the Prajna Temple. After that, the Quicksand Domain fell into chaos. Hopefully, this great battle at the Unreturning Sea will end it all.”

”What’s written on the notice? I’ve been here for a while and still can’t see it.”

”The Baji Sect is recruiting Loose Cultivators, and they’re also looking for Alchemists, Talisman Makers, and Array Masters. They’re offering Elder-level treatments and very generous rewards.”

”If I could perform Alchemy, I’d definitely go. Staying at the rear of the main forces is safe and there’s no risk of being conscripted to the battlefield. Although they say recruitment, they’re sure to use some means to force Loose Cultivators to join in the end.”

”Foundation Establishment Cultivators are somewhat better off, while Qi Cultivation Cultivators really can’t resist their conscription. It’s better for us to flee early on—staying far away from trouble is better than anything.”

Most of the Qi Cultivation Cultivators in the crowd quickly left with their heads down after reading the notice.

The surrounding atmosphere became tense and oppressive because of this notice. Many cultivators operating stalls were starting to pack up and prepare to flee.

Jiang Yuebai’s eyes darted as she recalled hearing from nearby shopkeepers about the Baji Sect collecting Beast Souls recently.

Martial Arts Cultivators refine Martial Souls, absorbing Beast Souls, and comprehending Martial Souls from them is a common practice, so there’s indeed a high demand for Beast Souls among Martial Arts Cultivators.

Since she also wants to explore the relics of the Prajna Temple in the Unreturning Sea and doesn’t want to be drawn into the war, staying behind to perform Alchemy is indeed a very good choice.

It’s safe, she can earn Spirit Stones, and take the opportunity to acquire some Beast Souls.

Having made up her mind, Jiang Yuebai exchanged some monster materials for Alchemy and talisman-making materials, then rented a room at an inn to rest.

Two days later, Jiang Yuebai checked out of the inn and wrote a letter to the Supreme Elder, telling her not to worry, saying she now has a Cultivation Technique for refining bloodlines.

She also wrote an earnest letter of greeting to True Monarch Fuyi of the North Sea Demon Hunting, asking at the end if Zhao Fuyi could send her some North Sea specialties, like Demon Cores, and then headed straight to the Baji Sect’s recruiting area.

The recruiting area was set up by a lakeside, with a simple tent, a table, and a Qi Cultivation male cultivator guarding the table. Behind him, a Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment middle-aged cultivator sat cross-legged by the lake, resting with his eyes closed.

”Are you still recruiting Alchemists?”

”We are, we are, finally someone has come.”

The Qi Cultivation male cultivator looked up, scrutinizing Jiang Yuebai. Although she had her face covered, it was still evident she was very young.

”I wonder if the senior has a Token from the Elixir Medicine Guild. We require recruited Alchemists to have a guaranteed level of elixir production proficiency.”

Jiang Yuebai frowned, having a Immortal Cultivation Panel to appraise her own Alchemy grade, she had forgotten about obtaining a formal Alchemist Token from the Elixir Medicine Guild.

”I’m a poor Loose Cultivator. I mistakenly took a Face Stabilizing Elixir in my early years, so I appear younger. Although I don’t have a Token, my Alchemy skill is about Eighth-Grade, with a normal Healing Pills formation rate of up to 70%. Besides, I can also make talismans.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment male cultivator sitting by the lake opened his eyes, stood up, and walked over.

”What specialty elixirs and talismans does this fellow Daoist have?”

Jiang Yuebai presented a prepared elixir bottle and an exquisite, neatly crafted talisman on the table. The Foundation Establishment male cultivator glanced at her, and first picked up the talisman to inspect it.

”A Beast Soul Talisman? Not bad, the quality can reach mid-level.” The Foundation Establishment cultivator brought the talisman to his nose to sniff it and nodded, ”It was indeed made within the last two days.”

”You have a good eye, fellow Daoist, are you also a Talisman Maker?” Jiang Yuebai asked.

The Qi Cultivation male cultivator beside quickly said, ”Our martial uncle is the best Eighth-Grade Talisman Maker around here.”

The Foundation Establishment cultivator then poured out the elixir to examine it, ”Is this the Blood Boiling Elixir? Doesn’t seem that special.”

Jiang Yuebai replied, ”This Blood Boiling Elixir uses my exclusive Method, refining Evil Qi from Beast Souls into it, doubling the normal blood and energy burst, let fellow Daoist find someone to try it and you’ll see.”

In reality, it was infused with Fire Evil, but the Evil Qi was weak, making it difficult to distinguish between Fire Evil and Soul Evil.

If this succeeds, she can request Beast Souls for Alchemy from the Baji Sect.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator’s eyes brightened slightly, yet he still harbored some doubts, asking Jiang Yuebai to wait a moment while he took the elixir to find someone for verification.

Before long, the Foundation Establishment cultivator returned, his face glowing, and his attitude was much friendlier than before.

”Junior Sister, you have exceptional talent. Even our sect’s elders highly praised the effect of the Blood Boiling Elixir, and the Beast Soul Talisman is excellently drawn too. The elder decreed to take Junior Sister back to the Baji Sect camp with me.”

Jiang Yuebai didn’t move, scratching her face, she asked, ”Since I do Alchemy and make talismans, can I receive a double stipend?”

The Foundation Establishment cultivator was stunned.

Jiang Yuebai smiled bitterly, ”I really am too poor.”
