Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2166: Chapter 795: Nine Spirits Ascending to Saint, Jiuli Forms Nascent Soul

...

”Friend Luo, we meet again.”

”Half a year has passed since we last met, yet Daoist Jiuling still looks the same. I’ve been waiting for a long time.”

”Oh, you knew I would come back to find you?”

”Haha, during the grand ceremony, apart from Elder Fu and Daoist Ling Fengzi, you were the most concerned about my Pill Refinement Technique. The only surprise was that you came before Ling Fengzi.”

”You’re clever, my friend! Indeed, I have a request and hope you can refine a batch of elixir for me.”

”It’s negotiable; as long as you can meet the price, I, Luo Chen, always fulfill requests!”

With Luo Chen’s verbal agreement, Jiuling Yuanjun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Previously willing to forgo dignity and ”humbly” pay a visit in front of everyone finally had some return.

He was very clear about Luo Chen’s intentions!

Merely using the task of refining pills for others to make a name for himself in the Eastern Wasteland.

He, Jiuling Yuanjun, also had such needs.

Since that’s the case, he would play to his taste, using his years of accumulated reputation to bolster the other’s status.

Even if Luo Chen slightly neglected him intentionally, he didn’t mind, as long as Luo Chen could truly refine what he needed!

He wanted substance, Luo Chen wanted fame, nothing more than that.

”Friend Luo, the price is negotiable, I have twenty strands of Chi Xiao Qi, ten strands of Jiang Xiao Qi, and ten strands of Purple Cloud Qi available for you, and there are several strands of the other Six Qi as well. If you want, we can also discuss them.”

Luo Chen looked slightly surprised.

How could the other party have so much Sky Qi on hand?

Even the other six kinds of Sky Qi in reserve?

Most importantly, this person seemed to understand the use of the nine kinds of Sky Qi very well. Luo Chen only wanted Chi Xiao Qi back then, and the other party offered Jiang Xiao Qi and Purple Cloud Qi proactively.

The Sword Scripture records indeed state that Luo Chen could refine with three Qi!

As for the reason, both Jiang Xiao Qi and Purple Cloud Qi share part of the Fire Attribute.

Jiuling Yuanjun obviously knew this point and thus deliberately pointed it out.

Luo Chen calculated that if he obtained a total of forty strands of the three Qi from Jiuling Yuanjun, and added his existing ten strands, he would be halfway to the hundred strands needed for the intermediate realm of the ”Thousand Clouds and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Scripture.”

This business deal could be done!

”The price is reasonable; I can do it. But the specific situation depends on what kind of elixir you want to refine. If it’s too exhausting, I, Luo Chen, will have to charge extra.”

He no longer hesitated and directly inquired about the other party’s needs.

Seeing Luo Chen’s agreement, Jiuling Yuanjun suddenly became anxious.

”I want to refine a Fourth Order Pill called the Nine Li Pill, can you do it?”

Luo Chen was helpless, ”I only know its name, not its substance. It’s too vague. Even if I were a Great Grandmaster, I couldn’t give you an answer!”

Jiuling Yuanjun thought for a moment, then eventually solemnly took out an item.

Luo Chen fixed his gaze and saw that it was a bronze statue.

The statue was peculiar, its appearance and size resembling a human sitting in a sitting posture, but it had lumps on its eyeballs, ears, big mouth, bosom, and two Yin sacs below, in total nine lumps.

The statue flipped, revealing the bronze back.

”The specific Pill Formula of the Nine Li Pill is recorded on the back. This Pill Formula is obscure and difficult to understand, and due to the special nature of this treasure, it cannot be copied. So, Friend, you have to look at it yourself.”

Jiuling Yuanjun explained.

Luo Chen sounded a sigh acknowledgement, paying no more attention to the lumps, but focused on the Pill Formula on the bronze back.

Upon reading it, his brow immediately furrowed.

Seeing his reaction, Jiuling Yuanjun felt somewhat worried.

”Friend Luo...”

”It’s nothing. It’s just that some medicinal names are rather rare.”

Luo Chen smiled, reassuringly, to the other party.

But in his heart, he couldn’t help but mutter.

”These medicinal names are from the naming style of the Demon Race!”

Ever since he inherited the Dao of Alchemy from the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch, Luo Chen occasionally flips through those Alchemy Scriptures, noting many unheard-of medicinal materials.

The Refining Heaven Demon Monarch was well-traveled, even marking some Demon Realm Elixirs similar to Human Clan separately with two names.

After reading them, he managed to understand most of it.

Time ticked away, Luo Chen continually memorizing the Pill Formula while pondering about the prohibitions in its refinement.

It wasn’t until midnight that he snapped back to reality.

All the while, Jiuling Yuanjun stayed close, closely observing his reactions.

”Friend Luo, can it be refined?”

Luo Chen first nodded, sparking great joy in the other party.

Then, with a swift shake of his head, he left the other party bewildered.

”What do you mean by that? I’m a little confused.”

Luo Chen pointed to the Pill Formula and said, ”It can be refined, but there are a few problems.”

”Speak freely!”

”The medicinal materials, do you have them? I don’t have any spares here.”

Ah, so that was the concern!

Jiuling Yuanjun breathed a sigh of relief, ”The medicinal materials on the Pill Formula are indeed rare, even our Jiuling Sect couldn’t gather them all. However, through generations of sect exploration, we found suitable substitutes. I have about a few sets here.”

”Oh?” Luo Chen raised his eyebrow, ”Show them to me.”

Jiuling Yuanjun then handed over a storage bag to Luo Chen.

As he received it, Luo Chen’s Divine Consciousness probed into it, occasionally taking out an item, examining it and nodding secretly.

”Using Stinging Eye Sunflower to replace Demon Realm Seedless, the medicinal properties are indeed similar.”

”Cedar Jade for Blood Jade Plate? Such a substitution method when... Oh, they share similar Jade-like medicinal properties. The predecessors of Jiuling Sect were indeed knowledgeable.”
