Chapter 1542: Refining the Spiritual Nourishing Pill
After returning to Jiuxian City, Master Yaoyue took Qingyang's Yufeng Gourd and the Wind and Thunder Stone to the Refining Room. As for how to distribute the Lingfu Sect's profits, the people below would do it.
Qingyang was not idle either. He went through all the shops selling high-level materials in Jiuxian City, trying to see if he could buy some materials for refining the Yangshen Pill. The result disappointed him greatly. He only received some unimportant auxiliary medicines and prescriptions, and did not buy any of the main materials. But this is normal. The materials for the Yangshen Pill are extremely precious and difficult to collect. Yuanying cultivators are the least short of spiritual stones. How could they let go of good materials when they encounter them? So these materials have long been plundered by the local snakes in Jiuxian City, how could it be Qingyang's turn?
In desperation, Qingyang could only set his sights on the Yuanying cultivators in Jiuxian City. Jiuxian City is so big, there are at least a dozen Yuanying cultivators, and each of them has more or less some materials for refining the Yangshen Pill. Qingyang's price is slightly higher, but he can get some of them.
Including the ones he had obtained from the Lingfu Sect before, Qingyang quickly gathered nearly a thousand materials for the Yangshen Pill. Then he found an alchemy room in the City Lord's Mansion of Jiuxian City and tried to refine the Yangshen Pill.
Yangshen Pill is a standard Yuanying-level pill that can only be refined by the Dan Emperor or the Quasi-Dan Emperor. However, becoming a Dan Emperor is not something that ordinary people can do. Not only does one have to reach a certain level of cultivation, but the requirements for alchemy skills are also extremely high. I am afraid that there are not many in the entire Ancient Wind Continent.
As early as when he was a guest of the Liu Family in Zhongsha Region, Qingyang's alchemy skills had already surpassed those of ordinary Dan Kings. On the way to the Ancient Wind Continent, Qingyang worked hard to refine alchemy. Although he has not yet reached the level of the Yuanying Dan Emperor, he is not far away. Because of this, he was able to easily refine the most difficult Jindan among the Jindan-level pills after coming out of the Yinfeng Extreme Fire Cave.
After breaking through the Golden Core Realm, Qingyang's alchemy skills have steadily improved. Now that he has broken through the Nascent Soul Realm in one fell swoop, his divine consciousness has been greatly enhanced, and his alchemy skills have been greatly improved. He has long reached the level of the Alchemy Emperor, but Qingyang has been exposed to too few Nascent Soul-level elixirs before, and his experience in this area is a little lacking. After getting familiar with it for a period of time, he is completely a qualified Nascent Soul Alchemy Emperor.
The difficulty of refining the Yang Shen Pill is not high. With Qingyang's current level of alchemy skills, it is not difficult to refine it. In addition, he has the Ziyun Tongxiao Ding, an alchemy artifact, so refining the Yang Shen Pill is not a problem. For this reason, he has been collecting materials for refining the Yang Shen Pill everywhere in Jiuxian City.
Qingyang has already collected the recipe of the Yang Shen Pill, and has conducted in-depth research on the recipe. He is familiar with every step of refining the Yang Shen Pill. Now that everything is ready, Qingyang took out the Ziyun Tongxiao Ding, copied several materials for the Yang Shen Pill, and began to try to simulate the refining of the Yang Shen Pill.
Although Qingyang was already familiar with the steps of refining the Yangshen Pill, the success rate was not very high as it was his first time to make the pill. Fortunately, he was only conducting simulated refining and would not waste materials. Qingyang continued to conduct experiments and simulated refining. As he became familiar with each refining step, the success rate of Qingyang's Yangshen Pill steadily increased. After dozens of times, the success rate reached 30%.
Qingyang took out the materials to formally refine them only after he felt more confident in refining the Yangshen Pill. At first, Qingyang only refined one batch of materials each time. After mastering each refining step, Qingyang began to try batch refining. As time went by, Qingyang's speed of refining the Yangshen Pill became faster and faster, the success rate of the pill became higher and higher, and his alchemy skills were also steadily improving.
In a blink of an eye, a month had passed, and nearly a thousand batches of materials had been consumed. A total of nearly 400 Yangshen Pills were refined, with an average success rate of more than 30%, which had long exceeded the Quasi-Dan Emperor and the general Dan Emperor. In other words, Qingyang's current alchemy skills have reached the level of Dan Emperor, and even slightly exceeded the ordinary Dan Emperor, and are among the top in the entire Ancient Wind Continent.
Four hundred pills are not enough for a Yuanying cultivator to improve his cultivation by one level, but they are enough for a short period of time. His own alchemy skills are not a problem, and he will slowly collect materials in the future.
After the materials were used up, Qingyang ended his retreat, and Yaoyue Zhenjun ended his retreat earlier. Seeing Qingyang coming out, Yaoyue Zhenjun returned the successfully refined Yufeng Gourd to Qingyang.
After Yaoyue Zhenjun's refining, the level of Yufeng Gourd with the addition of wind and thunder stone has been greatly improved. It has long exceeded the scope of spiritual tools, and even exceeded the level of magic weapons of many Jindan cultivators. Qingyang tried it. With his Yuanying level one level cultivation, he fully drove the Yufeng Gourd. The speed can reach more than a thousand miles per hour, which is 15,000 miles a day. The speed is amazing.
Before, Qingyang was worried that the Yufeng Gourd was too slow. It would take 20 to 30 years to drive the Yufeng Gourd back to Jiuzhou Continent. Now the Yufeng Gourd has become faster, and the time on the road can be saved by at least half, which is a little more than ten years for a round trip.
After getting the Yufeng Gourd, Qingyang discussed with Zhenjun Yaoyue and organized another exchange meeting among Yuanying cultivators in Jiuxian City. At the meeting, Qingyang took out some of the Yangshen Pills that he had just successfully refined to trade with everyone, mainly in exchange for the materials for refining the Yangshen Pills.
Before, the Yuanying cultivators in Jiuxian City did not understand Qingyang's alchemy, so when Qingyang purchased the materials for the Yangshen Pills, those Yuanying cultivators were reserved. Now that they understand Qingyang's alchemy and have seen the finished Yangshen Pills, they finally put down their burdens and traded with Qingyang.
Dan Emperors are rare in the Ancient Continent. If you take the materials and find someone to refine them, not only will the success rate be low, but you will also need to pay extra fees. Since Qingyang has ready-made pills, why bother? Many Yuanying cultivators took out the materials of the Yangshen Pills that they had kept in their bottom boxes and exchanged them with Qingyang for Yangshen Pills.
The exchange price is entirely decided by Qingyang. Five materials are exchanged for one Yangshen Pill. According to Qingyang's pill success rate, one Yangshen Pill can earn two and a half materials. Of course, Qingyang is not completely free of cost. He at least has to spend a lot of extra time to refine pills.
There are more than a dozen Yuanying cultivators in Jiuxian City, plus those who come from the surrounding areas. Qingyang has exchanged a total of 200 Yangshen Pills and got 1,000 materials. Qingyang can refine at least more than 400 Yangshen Pills with these materials. Not counting the time cost, the profit is more than doubled.
After the exchange meeting, Qingyang did not stay in Jiuxian City for too long. After saying goodbye to Yaoyue Zhenjun, he left Jiuxian City with the Iron Arm Monkey and drove the Wind Control Gourd back to Jiuzhou Continent.
The level of the Wind Control Gourd was upgraded, and the speed was greatly increased. Qingyang and the Iron Arm Monkey took turns to drive the Wind Control Gourd, and they could fly 15,000 miles a day, which is 5 million miles a year, twice as fast as when they first came to the Ancient Wind Continent.
