Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 559: Chapter 236 Upper-level pressure? I’ll solve it! Reestablishment of Medicine Hall, Setting up the External Sect_2

“After our rearrangement, we have connected several small caves to form the large pill room layout you are familiar with, Master.”

“Currently, out of these twenty Earth Fire Caves, only the Equipment Hall and I are using them. The majority are still unoccupied.”

The Yu Ding Realm is rich in Earth Fire Veins, which is a well-known fact.

On his journey so far, Luo Chen has come across many Earth Fire Veins.

Over in The Great River District, there is one in the Inner City Wanbao Building, and another in the Xiao Huan Mountain Duan Family’s territory.

At the Taishan District, there is one in the Red Toad Mountain Huo Family’s territory and there’s another one at the Taishan Kang Family’s place.

And after arriving in the Tian Lan Immortal City, there are even more Earth Fire Veins.

Danxia Peak, Phoenix Tree Mountain, Divine Craft Clan, Wanbao Building… it can be roughly estimated that there are no less than a dozen.

Even though they are all low-grade Earth Fire Veins, not contributing to any grand achievements.

But indeed, they provide a solid foundation for industries like pill refinement and tool casting.

The arrangements made by Qu Lingjun are undoubtedly reasonable.

He separated the Earth Fire Caves needed by the Pill Hall and the Equipment Hall.

And especially set up a pill room layout that Luo Chen is most familiar with.

Once he starts refining pills, these trivial matters will not cause any trouble.

As for his own disciple, if cultivation level isn’t considered, Luo Chen is extremely satisfied with him.

Especially since he can now reliably create lower-grade Jade Marrow Pills, and is exploring the method to refine medium-grade Jade Marrow Pills according to the Jade Marrow Pill crafting insights Luo Chen left for him.

This has made Luo Chen greatly relieved!

“Since everything is arranged, we’ll start preparing immediately to massively refine Jade Marrow Pills!”

“Hui Niang, how many spirit stones are there in Luo Tian Creed’s account now?”

Changing the subject, he turned to Sima Hui Niang.

She knows these matters like they are the back of her hand.

Instantly, she replied: “Originally, there were only twenty thousand left. Later, Hall Master Gu gradually added fifty thousand. So, altogether there are seventy thousand.”

“After the operation of the Biyou Valley, Hall Master Duan Feng sold quite a few repaired magic tools over there, and added another thirty thousand spirit stones.”

“At one point, it reached around one hundred thousand!”

“But, over the course of this year, after paying for personnel salaries, material purchases, and daily expenses, we’ve already spent fifty thousand. There’s no helping it, first arriving at Danxia Peak is the most costly time.”

“So, there is currently only fifty thousand movable funds on the account.”

Fifty thousand!

For any rogue cultivator, this is an untouchable enormous number.

However, for Sima Hui Niang, Gu Caiyi, and Duan Feng, who have handled large sums of money for many years, this number is no longer surprising.

Even then.

For the current Luo Tian Creed, this amount of spirit stones is still too small.

“Take out ten thousand to massively purchase raw materials needed for the Jade Marrow Pill.”

With ten thousand spirit stones, the materials needed for three to four months of Jade Marrow Pill refinement can be purchased.

Luo Chen didn’t withdraw all the spirit stones from his account.

He understands, any power operation needs enough liquid funds.

Moreover, part of this money is medium-grade spirit stones.

This belongs to their strategic resources and absolutely cannot be used carelessly!

Just like the Langqi Flying Boat.

Under normal circumstances, Luo Chen’s own spirit power is enough to operate it.

But once they need to activate its large-scale mode, a large number of medium-grade spirit stones are necessary for continuous operation.

“Furthermore, there’s a checklist here. Dispatch people to collect it in accordance with the ratio listed in tenfold as soon as possible, and send it to my Immortal Mansion!”

Sim Hui Niang took over the fluttering piece of paper in confusion.

Blue Smoke Jade, Lingting Fragrant Grass.

Ten-year-old ginseng, angelica, polygonum multiflorum, motherwort, sky-blue aloe…

Rows and rows of medicinal herb names made Sima Hui Niang’s eyelids twitch violently.

Especially a few familiar ones listed.

They included herbs that are particularly beneficial to female cultivators and even have decent effects when taken raw.

With just a swift glance, Sima Hui Niang couldn’t help but become curious.

Is the President planning to refine some pill that is beneficial to female cultivators?

Her curiosity was piqued when Luo Chen’s voice echoed in her ears.

“Assemble them as soon as possible, but assign different people and buy them separately.”

“Keep that in mind!”

Sima Hui Niang nodded seriously, she could feel Luo Chen’s importance for this checklist.

She decided to handle this matter personally.

As for the Jade Marrow Pill, arrangement ended here.

What follows will depend on how it’s specifically implemented.

Luo Chen’s words shifted, focusing on Duan Feng.

About to ascend, he adressed Duan Feng who was radiating with spirit power fluctuations so harmonious and gentle, it was as if they were about to overflow.

He praised, “You have been relentless lately. You’ve already reached Qi Refinement Finalization.”

Duan Feng pursed his lips and nodded silently.

He shouldn’t be ready to finalize his Qi Refinement so soon, at least not for several years.

But the heritage that Duan Qiankun left behind, is enough to push any Ninth Level Qi Refinement cultivator to Finalization.

He himself also possesses decent talent and was already close to the Qi Refinement Finalization stage before.

Now, it’s merely adding fuel to the fire, advancing another level, that’s it.

However, his calmness.

Made Sima Hui Niang feel sullen.

According to Luo Chen’s promise, among the batch of them, whoever finalized their Qi Refinement first would be able to buy that Foundation Establishment Pill from Luo Chen at the original auction price.

Among that batch, the ones who were closest to finalization.

Were her, Sima Hui Niang, along with Murong QingLian, Duan Feng, and Bian Zhen.

Although she is busy with work, her treatment is the best among the four.

Theoretically, she should be the first to finalize Qi Refinement.

However, she didn’t expect Duan Feng to overtake and finalize first.

So now…

“When do you plan to establish your foundation?”

Duan Feng lifted his head and frankly said, “It’s better to hit the road than pick a date. Since I’ve already finalized Qi Refinement, why should I wait? In the next two days, I plan to use my savings to rent a second-order lower-grade Immortal Mansion in Tianlan Peak to break through the realm.”
