A Hundred Spirit Pills as a Congratulatory Gift

As night fell, Su Bai was seated in the Sifang Hall of the Imperial Palace, where distinguished guests were entertained.

Su Bai could sense that the Spiritual Qi in this Sea Star City was quite abundant.

Although Sea Tribe do not cultivate with Spiritual Power, they still follow the guidance of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in their Bloodline when choosing a location for their settlement.

Therefore, the Sea Star City was established in a region rich in Spiritual Qi.

Furthermore, the Merman Imperial Palace is located in the central part of Sea Star City, and it is also very humid.

The concentration of Water Spiritual Energy that Su Bai sensed was even higher than that of the Zhang Family Water Pavilion Secret Realm, which had not been inhabited by any Mythical Creature.

Moreover, Su Bai could also faintly sense that the Water Spiritual Energy would become even more concentrated in a certain area deep within the Imperial Palace.

If he could stay here to cultivate for a long time, it would definitely be twice as effective for Su Bai, who has Water Heavenly Spirit Root.

However, this trip could not last long, and the depths of the Merman Imperial Palace were clearly not a place that Su Bai, an outsider, could easily venture into.

Therefore, the thought only flashed through my mind and was quickly buried.

Soon, Su Bai contacted his Master, Master True Man He, through Transmit Message.

News of the successful signing of the contract quickly reached the Heavenly Star Alliance Senior Leadership.

Not only True Man He, but even Old Ancestor Heavenly Star was slightly surprised by the efficiency of Su Bai's work on this trip.

"Therefore, the development of the Sea Spirit Pill can be put on the agenda."

"Lu Jiu, after you return from this trip, you will need to join us and several other Golden Core Realm Alchemist from the Heavenly Star Alliance in our research," True Man He replied in the Transmit Message Jade Slip.

The contract has been signed, but Su Bai isn't particularly optimistic about developing the Sea Spirit Pill based solely on wild imagination.

"This Disciple should certainly do my utmost, but..."

Su Bai naturally agreed, and was about to ask the question in his heart, but True Man He heard it and immediately answered Su Bai's question.

"I know your doubts. The Sea Spirit Pill is a completely unknown field for the Alchemist of my Star Luo Pill Pavilion. Why would I confidently take on such a heavy responsibility in the Heavenly Star Alliance?"

"As my Disciple, I should have told you this sooner, but it's not too late to say it now."

Upon hearing this, Su Bai's heart stirred slightly. Sure enough, this matter was not as his Master had portrayed at the Star Luo Pill Pavilion the other day.

To act so passionately and recklessly as soon as an idea comes to mind is clearly not the style of True Man He.

In particular, it involves the important matter of forming an alliance with the Sea Tribe.

After all, once the alliance was formed, the Sea Spirit Pill would be developed, and the dilemma would be resolved on its own.

However, if they fail to figure it out in time, it will lead to animosity with the Sea Tribe.

The cost is too high, and the risk is too great.

As the Middleman in this transaction, Su Bai, the "Heavenly Star Envoy," inevitably bears the brunt of the consequences.

Therefore, Su Bai guessed that his Master must have been 70-80% certain to do so.

The statement I made the other day was only meant for the other members of the Star Luo Pill Pavilion.

After listening to True Man He's next words, Su Bai finally understood.

The origin of this Sea Spirit Pill was not a sudden inspiration of True Man He.

Rather, it was a Alchemy Method that he had actually come into contact with when he was Alchemist in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

"When I first entered the Cultivation World, it was upon witnessing this Alchemy Method that I truly embarked on the path of alchemy..."

"At that time, I knew very little about alchemy, only how to refine some basic first-tier Spirit Pills, and I had only a superficial understanding of Second-tier Spirit Pill."

"Therefore, that senior's method of refining pills with Sea Spirit Medicine completely captivated me."

"Unexpectedly, that senior who traveled Major Cultivation Worlds saw my Alchemy Talent and gave me the Pill Formula for this Second-tier Low-grade Sea Spirit Pill."

"Although it was successfully refined, it was found that its effects were slightly inferior to the mainstream Low-grade Second-tier Spirit Pill on the market..."

"In the end, I continued to refine the mainstream Spirit Pills, and I temporarily shelved this Sea Spirit Medicine Alchemy Method for many years, only occasionally trying it out..."

It turns out they already had Second-tier Low-grade Pill Formula!

With this explanation, Su Bai understood.

In this way, the Star Luo Pill Pavilion's subsequent research would no longer be a matter of blindly developing the Sea Spirit Pill.

Instead, they started with the Second-tier Low-grade Sea Spirit Pill and attempted to create a series of Pill Formula ranging from Tier One Lower-grade to Third-tier Low-grade.

The difficulty level is clearly much higher than that of the other two orders of magnitude.

The reason for not explicitly stating this in the Star Luo Pill Pavilion is another layer of reason.

Back when True Man He was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he only thought that senior was Golden Core elder.

After breaking through to the Golden Core stage, True Man He reminisced about his past.

Only then did I realize that the senior was far more than just Golden Core Stage!

Therefore, True Man He chose to avoid mentioning the existence of this senior to any outsiders.

Besides the fact that Old Ancestor Heavenly Star, also known as Su Bai, was his Personal Disciple, and that he had signed such an important contract with the Merfolk Race, he was only able to tell Su Bai in detail.

Knowing the inside story, Su Bai was naturally relieved.

I had originally planned to get some Sea Spirit Medicine tonight and study their medicinal properties, since time is of the essence under these circumstances.

Now it seems I can finally relax a bit...

The next day, the Third Prince Cang Mingxiao only made a brief visit.

With the Positioning Ceremony fast approaching, he couldn't get away, so after punishing himself with a few drinks, he hurriedly left.

Su Bai was unharmed; he simply used the abundant Water Spiritual Energy of this place to concentrate on his cultivation, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

It was still the Merman Imperial Palace, but it was several times more bustling than it had been three days ago.

This time, there were many other Sea Tribe present.

Among them was the Giant Whale Tribe, whom Su Bai had previously encountered in the Water Pavilion Secret Realm.

However, the one before them had a more complete transformation, and even the scales on its body were much thinner than those of the Giant Whale Tribe they had seen that day.

It is said that among the Giant Whale Tribe, this signifies even greater Demon Power.

Upon seeing the Giant Whale Tribe, Su Bai couldn't help but recall the colossal shadow of that mythical creature that Skyshroud.

"If given the chance, perhaps I could Copy the Bloodline Talent of this Giant Whale Tribe..." Su Bai pondered to himself.

After all, the Mythical Creature has a deep connection with the Giant Whale Tribe. If one wants to truly come into contact with the Mythical Creature, the only options besides the Water Pavilion Secret Realm are the Giant Whale Tribe.

However, this matter needs to be considered carefully.

Outside the main hall of the Imperial Palace, the sound of people announcing names and offering congratulations could be heard continuously.

"The Demon King of the Giant Whale Tribe presents a gift of one hundred branches of the Myriad Spirit Coral..."

"The Holy Claw Tribe Demon King presents a gift of one hundred Demonic Origin Spirit Jade..."

All the races were at the level of Demon King, and they came to witness the Positioning Ceremony of the Merfolk Race.

The gifts brought were not particularly valuable, but there were many of them, so it was obviously just a formality.

After all, every Sea Tribe has a similar Positioning Ceremony.

There are only so many truly rare treasures, and they can't possibly be passed around between different tribes. Besides, this isn't an enthronement ceremony; it's just the establishment of a crown prince.

Su Bai also prepared a congratulatory gift, which was a series of Spirit Pills suitable for the Sea Tribe.

"Distinguished Human Race guest, envoy of the Heavenly Star Alliance, Alchemist Lu Jiu, presents a gift of one hundred Spirit Pills..."

Before the main hall, the sound of names being called out and congratulatory gifts rang out once again.

This time, quite a few Sea Tribe Demon King noticed Su Bai, the only Human Race Cultivator...
