Chapter 179: Transaction with Lin Fan

Yunshuifeng.

"Taiyi has mastered the art of cultivating the spirit."

Chu Chen walked out of the Dharma Transfer Hall with a smile on his face and put away the jade slip containing Taiyi's spiritual cultivation technique.

After killing the fish demon, he returned directly to Yunshui Sect and handed in the mission. Counting the merits he had exchanged for Huanglong Pill in the past few years, his merits suddenly exceeded 10,000.

After redeeming the Taiyi Soul Cultivation Technique, there are still four thousand merit points left.

"It requires 19,000 merit points to redeem the Xiantian Qi Sword Art, and there is still a shortfall of 15,000 merit points."

Chu Chen's eyes were focused, thinking about ways to accumulate merit.

It would take at least thirty years to collect 15,000 merit points in exchange for Huanglong Pill.

Another way is to take over the external affairs of exterminating demons.

But Chu Chen checked the real-life demon-killing foreign affairs in the Foreign Affairs Hall and finally gave up on this plan.

The remaining real-person level demon-killing tasks are each more difficult than the last, and any one of them has to face a demon who is far stronger than the fish demon and whose methods are more tyrannical.

The reason why the fish demon's task is difficult to complete and has been hanging in the Foreign Affairs Palace for more than ten years is mainly because the fish demon is cautious and good at water escape.

In terms of combat power, among many real-life demon-killing targets, fish monsters are at the lowest level.

"If it's not necessary, it's better not to deal with the external affairs of exorcism for the time being."

Regarding the foreign affairs of exterminating demons, Chu Chen's rule has always been to do nothing if possible.

Unless he was completely sure, he would not take on the task of exterminating demons.

"Exchanging Huanglong Pill for meritorious service may be slow, but the victory is safety. With Yunshui Sect's strength and foundation, as long as there is no major change in the Qingzhou Immortal Cultivation World, Yunshui Sect can sit firmly on Diaoyutai."

With the suppression of Zhenren Qian Ding, the factional struggle within Yunshui Sect will be suppressed within a controllable range and will not affect Chu Chen.

At least, until Lin Fan's strength surpasses that of Zhenren Qian Ding, there will be no major chaos in the factional struggle within the Yunshui Sect.

"There are still four years left to redeem the twenty years of Qianyuan Gong. By then, I will regain my freedom. Even if I leave directly, I will not be on the Yunshui Sect's Demon-Slaying Order."

Chu Chen calculated silently.

After waiting another four years, even if something went wrong with Yunshui Sect, he would be able to move forward and retreat freely and just find a reason to leave Yunshui Sect.

"It's best to wait until I refine the Heqi Pill in exchange for the Innate Qi Sword Art."

If nothing can be done, Chu Chen will not insist on redeeming the Innate Qi Sword Art.

certainly.

If he could exchange it for the Innate Qi Sword Technique, he would not refuse.

Compared with the sword arts sold in Wanbao Pavilion, the Xiantian Yiqi sword arts are the most superior foundation-building sword arts.

The innate energy sword escape that comes with it after completion is also the top among many foundation-building escape methods.

"The body of the fish demon can be sold for about three to four thousand mid-grade spiritual stones. You can try to use wood spiritual soil to improve the environment of the medicine field and shorten the maturation time of the spiritual medicine."

Most elixirs have strict requirements on the growth environment, and waiting for them to mature naturally can easily take decades or hundreds of years. Ordinary monks do not have such a long lifespan to wait.

Therefore, various spells and spiritual objects have been developed to accelerate the ripening of elixirs, and wood spirit soil is one of them.

Using wood soil to improve the environment of medicinal fields can shorten the time required for elixirs to mature.

Whether it is the Purple Jade Zhima who refines the Heqi Pill or the Qingxuan Teng who refines the Xuanling Pill, it is useful.

However, this kind of spiritual items are expensive.

A lump of fist-sized wood spirit soil, priced at Wanbao Pavilion for one thousand medium-grade spirit stones, can only improve the growth environment of half an acre of medicinal fields.

Chu Chen was short of money before and could not afford to buy wood spirit soil.

Because of the gift from the fish demon, I am eligible to purchase the wood spirit soil.

"The golden belt of murder and arson."

Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh, no wonder so many monks embarked on the path of killing people and seizing treasures for a living.

A fish demon can increase his wealth several times. If it were another foundation-building master with a rich family, wouldn't he be able to become rich overnight?

"Stop it."

Chu Chen woke up in his heart and quickly put away this thought.

If you are a noble being born in the immortal way, what kind of behavior is there to fight and kill?

Killing people and grabbing treasures is great, but if you become the one being killed and grabbing treasures, it won't be so wonderful.

With the most precious treasure in the world, as long as you practice step by step, you will one day become an immortal and become an ancestor. Why bother to take risks and fight with others for some petty gains?

"If the Purple Jade Zhima that is used to refine the Heqi Pill can be ripened as soon as possible and the Heqi Pill can be refined, the exchange for merit can be made much faster."

After these years of practice, Chu Chen has already improved the success rate of refining Heqi Pills to 70% to 80%. In reality, he has successfully refined a batch of Heqi Pills for his own practice.

When the elixirs such as Ziyu Zima are mature, he can try to refine the Heqi Pill in exchange for merit.

"This batch of elixirs can probably be used to refine two hundred bottles of Heqi Pills, which is enough to exchange for the Innate Qi Sword Art."

One bottle of Heqi Pill can be exchanged for one hundred points of merit. With only one hundred and fifty bottles of Heqi Pill, you can collect fifteen thousand points of merit.

The speed is several times faster than exchanging Huanglong Pill for meritorious service.

"Everything is going in a good direction."

Chu Chen smiled slightly and went to the Foreign Affairs Hall.

When he handed over the demon-killing foreign affairs at the Foreign Affairs Hall, Master Qingxu invited him to come together, and Chu Chen happily agreed.

…

As soon as I walked into the Foreign Affairs Hall, I found Master Qingxu chatting with someone.

This man was wearing a green Taoist robe, with a slender figure and handsome appearance. He seemed to be very close to Master Qingxu, and the two had a very pleasant conversation.

"Lin Fan?"

Chu Chen's eyes narrowed and he recognized this person's identity.

"Senior Brother Ye."

Lin Fan noticed Chu Chen's arrival, stood up and bowed his hands.

Although Chu Chen had already broken through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, on the surface he still only showed his cultivation in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

As a mature and prudent person, you always have to keep some trump cards, right?

With the Phantom Spirit Secret concealed, no one discovered Chu Chen's hidden strength.

Lin Fan has not yet broken through the middle stage of foundation building. Based on the time he has entered, Lin Fan should call Chu Chen his senior brother.

"Junior Brother Lin."

Chu Chen returned the favor with a smile.

"I got some laurel drunken flower brew a few days ago, and I asked Senior Brother Ye to taste it."

Lin Fan invited Chu Chen to take a seat and filled a glass of spiritual wine.

“Good wine!”

Chu Chen drank it all in one gulp and couldn't help but admired.

It has to be said that this laurel drunken flower brew has a dense and smooth taste and contains sufficient spiritual power. It is much better than the cold spring nectar, and it is of great benefit to the foundation-building master.

This jar of laurel drunken flower brew can be sold for at least twenty or thirty middle-grade spiritual stones.

"If senior brother likes it, I still have three jars of laurel drunken flower brew, and I will give them to senior brother as well."

Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Junior brother is awesome."

Chu Chen's expression changed, he glanced at Master Qingxu who was standing beside him, and said, "Junior Brother Lin, if you have anything to ask for, you might as well speak up."

If you want to take it, give it first.

He devoted himself to practicing hard and rarely had the opportunity to come into contact with Lin Fan. He could only be regarded as an acquaintance with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan suddenly showed his kindness to him, and he must ask for something.

"I can't hide it from my senior brother. I heard that my senior brother has the body of a foundation-building fish demon in his hands."

Lin Fan stopped hiding anything and went straight to the point: "What junior brother wants is this fish demon corpse."

"Please rest assured, senior brother, I will definitely offer a price that satisfies senior brother."

"Can."

Chu Chen thought for a moment and agreed.

The body of the fish monster does not have to be sold to Wanbao Pavilion. As long as the price is right, it is not a sale to anyone.
