Qiaodan Pavilion, inside the shop.
Cheng Buzheng looked at the old woman calmly and said:
"I only want that Pill Formula, nothing more!"
Although he can currently control her, once the outside world finds out that she is the Alchemist, her life will probably not be so easy anymore!
Similarly, that Pill Formula will also be lost.
at present.
The old woman was able to remain safely in the shop not only because she had compensated the many cultivators, but also because she was not the Alchemist.
Although the Pill Formula the Bipolar Pill was already beckoning to him, he dared not push too hard, for fear that the other party would fight to the death.
Upon hearing this...
The old woman breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, things hadn't gotten worse.
She lingered in the shop, unwilling to leave.
It was precisely because Sea Suppressing City was prosperous and stable that she was able to obtain a large number of soul-nourishing spiritual spirit medicine here, so that she could refine Spirit Pill for her grandson.
Although Heavenly Demon City and Immortal Alliance City are prosperous enough, they still don't have as many soul-nourishing spirit medicine as Sea Suppressing City.
After all, Sea Suppressing City connects the Heavenly Dao Alliance and the Demonic Path Alliance.
Moreover, Heavenly Demon City is the headquarters of the Demonic Path Alliance. How could a Rogue Cultivator her, without any backing, survive peacefully in Heavenly Demon City?
Although Immortal Alliance City is the headquarters of the Immortal Dao Alliance and some Rogue Cultivator shops there, it is still the domain of sect cultivators.
Although no cultivator in these two cities dared to make a move, it wasn't without a way to deal with a Rogue Cultivator.
Only within the territory of the Zhenhai Alliance can the interests of Rogue Cultivator be guaranteed.
In Sea Suppressing City, only a small number of cultivators come here to undergo the process of resolving their elixir regeneration.
Most cultivators wouldn't be willing to spend a huge amount of money to come here specifically to return Spirit Pill, and what they're returning isn't Spirit Stone, but just the first-tier Spirit Pill she refined.
It just takes a little more time.
But if she also flees this place, her dislike for it will undoubtedly deepen significantly.
Besides, she has no chance of Ascending Gold Pill stage in this lifetime.
My lifelong wish is for my grandson to regain his senses, but this requires a stable environment.
After considering many factors, she decided to stay here and live out her remaining days.
Immediately.
The old woman pondered for a moment, then said meaningfully:
"Fellow Daoist, your mind is quick; I've witnessed that as well!"
"Fellow Daoist should understand the preciousness of the Bipolar Pill Formula. Although I have not yet fully perfected it, you should be well aware of its value."
"If you're planning to get something for nothing, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed!"
Hearing the old woman's softening tone, Cheng Buzheng finally felt completely relieved.
Although he had considered it before, he knew the chances were slim.
Even if this matter were made public, the old woman in front of me wouldn't give away the Pill Formula for nothing; it would only be an exchange of benefits.
After all, the entire Sea Suppressing City was under the surveillance of powerful beings, and no cultivator dared to forcibly seize it.
Cheng Buzheng even suspected that there was Spirit Transformation cultivator presiding over this city.
When Cheng Buzheng saw that Sea Suppressing City was peaceful and prosperous, even the bloodthirsty demonic cultivators dared not act rashly.
He already had a guess in his mind.
Otherwise, a mere Nascent Soul True Lord would be insufficient to intimidate numerous cultivators from both the Immortal and Demonic paths.
after all.
There are quite a few Nascent Soul True Lord of both the Immortal and Demonic paths in this city, and the same is probably true for the Immortal Alliance City and the Heavenly Demon City.
Cheng Buzheng roughly understood why the old woman hadn't left the city, but hadn't fled.
Sea Suppressing City is not only rich in spiritual creatures, but it is also the largest haven for Rogue Cultivator.
It is also the place where most independent Rogue Cultivator yearn to settle down.
Even so.
However, Cheng Buzheng still hadn't figured something out, but the most important thing at the moment was to get his hands on the recipe for the Bipolar Pill Formula.
Cheng Buzheng also had some guesses about the old woman's thoughts.
Immediately.
Cheng Buzheng thought for a moment, then said:
"Fellow Daoist, you must be aware of the value of this Soul-Nurturing Pill. It should be enough to exchange for the incomplete Pill Formula!"
"As for the third-tier Spirit Pill that nourish the soul, fellow Daoist, there's no need to mention them again."
Even Golden Core True Person might not possess such Spirit Pill.
"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I will not sell or publish this Pill Formula."
"What do you think, fellow Daoist?"
Upon hearing this...
The old woman behind the counter glanced at Cheng Buzheng and said:
"Fellow Daoist, how can you guarantee that?"
See here.
Cheng Buzheng knew the matter was settled; all the other party wanted now was a guarantee.
Immediately, his expression turned serious, and he said:
"Fellow Daoist, how about I make an oath?"
Cheng Buzheng knew that most cultivators in this world valued oaths highly, so he brought out this oath without thinking.
The old woman nodded and said:
"Can!"
Immediately afterward, Cheng Buzheng made a vow.
He had no intention of breaking his oath; after all, it was just an imperfect Pill Formula, not worth the trouble.
The two then completed the transaction.
Cheng Buzheng put the Pill Formula into his storage bag with satisfaction.
Then, with a relaxed expression, he smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist, there is still one thing I do not understand. Please enlighten me!"
The old woman carefully placed the Soul-Nurturing Pill near the Golden Light Civet's mouth. Watching the Spirit Pill Golden Light Civet swallow the pill in one gulp, her eyes were filled with loving affection, and her withered right hand combed the Golden Light Civet's golden fur.
The old woman didn't even look up, and replied indifferently;
"What is it?"
Cheng Buzheng asked:
"Fellow Daoist, have you considered your escape route?"
Upon hearing this...
The old woman paused in her movements, and said with unusual calm:
"Fellow Daoist, you should be able to tell that my lifespan is running out!"
"That's true."
"If that day truly comes and my grandson still hasn't regained his senses, then I'll have no choice but to take him with me in death!"
"Without my help, my grandson would have no ability to survive; he would just be a muddle-headed spirit beast."
"In the world of cultivation, that outcome is predictable!"
"Even if I entrusted it to a close friend, they wouldn't take such good care of it as I have. It would be common for them to go hungry or not at all!"
"Not to mention the enormous cost of consuming Spirit Pill to nourish the soul year after year!"
"So as my time comes, I truly hope he can regain his senses, so that I can depart in peace!"
Otherwise, we can only...
As she finished speaking, the old woman looked at the Golden Light Civet in her arms with even more tenderness and kindness!
Although the old woman's tone was unusually calm, he could sense the deep helplessness and sorrow within it!
But Cheng Buzheng did not show any sympathy; instead, he said indifferently:
"That's why you used the Pill Formula the Bipolar Pill to exchange for a high-grade Soul Nourishing Pill."
"Furthermore, fellow Daoist, there must be quite a few Alchemist who use this Pill Formula formula in their transactions!"
"Even if I hadn't revealed that you were that Alchemist, you would still have eventually made a deal with me!"
After he finished speaking, he stared intently at the old woman.
When he heard the old woman admit that her lifespan was nearing its end, Cheng Buzheng knew that her earlier stubbornness stemmed from a need for a third-tier soul-nourishing elixir.
--Whether there are dates or not, let's take a shot first.
After all, if the other party had such Spirit Pill, or news of such Spirit Pill, she could awaken the consciousness of the Golden Light Civet.
Even before Cheng Buzheng confirmed that the old woman was Alchemist, he had already made a guess.
Especially when Cheng Buzheng to guarantee that the Pill Formula would not be leaked, and the old woman immediately agreed, it made him even more suspicious, given the extent to which the old woman doted on the Golden Light Civet...
Spirit Pill that nourish the soul are of the highest quality, of course.
Moreover, the pills that the Golden Light Civet usually takes are only first-tier pills for nourishing the soul.
However, since he couldn't determine the old woman's lifespan, he didn't dare to make any rash judgments.
After all, a cultivator's appearance may be affected by their lifespan, or it may be affected by their Cultivation Method and secret arts, which led to the final test.
Until this moment.
Cheng Buzheng's suspicions were finally confirmed.
Immediately.
The old woman shifted her gaze from the Golden Light Civet in her arms to Cheng Buzheng, and nodded slightly.
"Fellow Daoist truly deserves to be called an outstanding person; your mind is extremely meticulous!"
"I hope you won't take offense, fellow Daoist. I had no choice but to do this."
In response to this...
Cheng Buzheng nodded calmly in response.
Although the old woman was suspected of plotting against him, he wanted to hate her but couldn't bring himself to do so. How many cultivators could achieve such familial affection?
In the world of cultivation.
There are countless examples of fathers and dao companion scheming against each other; there are simply too many to count.
Moreover, Cheng Buzheng also obtained the Pill Formula the Bipolar Pill.
Having resolved his doubts, Cheng Buzheng didn't want to stay any longer and bid farewell to the old woman.
First, he didn't want to ruin this precious family bond, nor did he have the ability to help the old woman before him, nor did he possess such a valuable Spirit Pill.
Secondly, although he didn't hold the old woman's scheming against him against his will, he couldn't simply pretend that the scheming hadn't happened.
The best approach is to avoid seeing it and not wanting to be bothered by it.
After leaving Qiaodan Pavilion, Cheng Buzheng let out a deep breath, turned his head and took one last, deep look at the exceptionally simple shop, then strode forward without looking back.
Then Cheng Buzheng went directly to an inn and booked a room.
Cheng Buzheng, sitting Cheng Buzheng on the bed, reached into his storage bag at his waist and found 1,500 Spirit Stone piled up in front of him.
See here.
"This many Spirit Stone should be enough!"
Cheng Buzheng thought to himself.
He then enveloped Spirit Stone Divine Sense and connected his will to the Small Plate.
In an instant, the pile of Spirit Stone before them turned into Waste Stone, and the Spiritual Power Value on the panel changed.
--Spiritual Power Value: 1535
Cheng Buzheng began to deduce the Pill Formula for the Bipolar Pill once again.
-
60.
-
60.
-
60.
-
120.
When the Second-order Low-grade Bipolar Pill Formula reaches its highest quality, the Spiritual Power Value consumed doubles, reaching 120 points.
After mastering this Pill Formula...
Cheng Buzheng discovered that the original Pill Formula, which removed spirit medicine spiritual imprints of Demon Beast and Desolate Beast, had very weak effects and was almost ineffective!
However, when this Pill Formula was refined to its ultimate form, a spirit medicine Silver-Catalyzing Grass was added.
This spirit medicine not only harmonizes the properties of other medicines, but also amplifies the effects of spirit medicine that remove the spiritual imprint of Demon Beast by a hundredfold.
The original Pill Formula Pill Formula had a major flaw because its effect in removing the spiritual imprints of Demon Beast and Desolate Beast was weak, wasting a considerable amount of medicinal power.
However, after Small Plate's deduction, all these problems were solved, and the efficacy of the Pill Formula was even greatly enhanced.
Before advancing to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, there's no need to worry about elixirs to enhance magical power and strengthen the Treasure Body.
Not only are the Spirit Material the Bipolar Pill inexpensive, but the market also has abundant resources of this kind, eliminating the need to travel around collecting spirit medicine as before.
Currently, the elixir for enhancing one's spirit and soul, the Spirit Spirit-Increasing Pill, and many of its spirit medicine are available in the Immortal Alliance City, but the price is too high.
Wait until he settles down.
They used puppets to refine pills in exchange for Spirit Stone, and then purchased various spirit medicine Spirit Material to refine into Spirit Pill for cultivation.
Plans can't keep up with changes.
The previous plan needs to be slightly changed.
With this in mind, Cheng Buzheng delay any longer.
As I used the Heart Spirit Treasure Eye again, the Spiritual Power Value on the panel decreased rapidly once more.
185.
-
185.
-
185.
-
370.
The Heart Spirit Treasure Eye Treasure Art, when it reaches the intermediate (ultimate) grade, consumes twice the Spiritual Power Value. This time, the calculation consumed a full 925 points of Spiritual Power Value.
Including the consumption of the previous calculation of the Bipolar Pill, a total of 1,225 Spiritual Power Value were consumed.
At this point, only ~ remained on the panel.
--Spiritual Power Value: 310
With only 310 points of Spiritual Power Value, it is definitely not enough to advance the Heart Spirit Treasure Eye Treasure Art to the highest level (ultimate).
See here.
Cheng Buzheng knew that this Treasure Art consumed more Spiritual Power Value than ordinary Treasure Art!
Normally, it takes about 200 points of Spiritual Power Value to deduce a superior-grade Treasure Art, but a single deduction using the Heart Spirit Treasure Eye requires at least 250 points of Spiritual Power Value.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Buzheng took out another 1,500 Spirit Stone.
In the blink of an eye.
The Spirit Stone in front of them turned into a pile of Waste Stone, which were piled up on top of the previous pile of Waste Stone.
Cheng Buzheng began his deductions again, and the patterns on the surface of the Small Plate began to shine once more.
-290.
-290.
-290.
-580.
See here.
Cheng Buzheng surprised; when this superior-grade Treasure Art was deduced to its (ultimate) level, the Spiritual Power Value consumed would double.
At this moment, the Spiritual Power Value on the panel is displayed.
--Spiritual Power Value: 360
This deduction of a Treasure Art and a Pill Formula consumed a total of over 2,600 points of Spiritual Power Value.
at this time.
He only had a little over a thousand Spirit Stone left in his storage bag.
Immediately.
Cheng Buzheng get four pieces of Spirit Heart Ore, and then a thought struck him.
Within his dantian, liquid-like magical power, emanating a hazy gray mist, surged from his palms.
Magic power moves at will.
Having learned from his previous experience, he skillfully sculpted a Phoenix Eye this time.
Looking at the lifelike eyeballs, shrouded in a hazy gray mist, Cheng Buzheng but give himself a thumbs up for his craftsmanship!
Immediately, a thought struck him.
Above the Sea of Consciousness, three hundred and sixty-five small gray dots shimmered with a faint light.
suddenly.
Numerous gray dots moved simultaneously, splitting into streams of Divine Sense, with the Phoenix Eye emitting gray mist rushing forward.
Like strands of gray silk, they constantly weave within the Phoenix Eye, sometimes folding horizontally up and down, sometimes passing through the gaps, but without ever touching them.
Strands of Divine Sense materialized and were imprinted on the Phoenix Eye.
If there is even the slightest error, this Phoenix Eye will be ruined, and the Divine Sense will also be severely damaged.
visible.
Such techniques are extremely difficult to master.
If it's not handled properly...
This would leave a huge hidden danger for his future Immortal Path.
This is also why very few cultivators know how to practice this kind of technique.
Those cultivators who can successfully master such techniques are extremely rare.
