After Luo Qifang finished speaking, he took out several sample diagrams of Spiritual dicines.
"There are about seven kinds of Spiritual dicines, primarily Mid-grade Spiritual dicines, with two being Top-grade," Luo Qifang said, flipping through the diagrams. "Master has already sent the Spirit Plant seeds to the disciples of Alcohol Sword Peak. They are being force-ripened and should mature in about two months."
"We also have so plots for cultivation here, so we can grow them ourselves too."
Wang Mu glanced at them and asked, "Given our level, the likelihood of concocting a brand-new Elixir is quite low, isn’t it?"
Luo Qifang smiled and nodded, "Yes, it’s quite difficult. At Master’s level, one needs to ticulously consider the properties of each Spiritual dicine, make records, and proceed through such complexity until success is achieved."
"As for us, well, we don’t need to consider those things. We just need to conduct rough experints with proportions and sequences."
Simply put, he ant they’d just be blindly ssing around with concocting. Wang Mu was speechless.
The Alchemy process itself wasn’t complicated, but creating a completely new Elixir recipe required nurous complex experints to determine the correct proportions. Out of the seven Spiritual dicines, which one should be the main ingredient? Which should act as the dicine? Then, what quantities? Which auxiliary ingredients should be paired with them? What about their Five Elents Attributes? And so on. Based on these considerations, even for Alchemists with extrely high Realms, concocting a brand-new Spirit Pill would require hundreds, even thousands of trials. For beginner Alchemists, it was all down to luck. What if, by so chance, they stumbled upon the right combination? Even if they did, the Spirit Pill had to be truly remarkable, which made it even harder. Sotis, even if they got the combination right, they would discover upon concocting it that such an Elixir already existed.
"Anyway, we have plenty of ti. Since the grade of the Spiritual dicines isn’t high, we have about three months to try our luck," Luo Qifang said excitedly. "So grand competitions in the Cultivation World offer excellent rewards, and the Dan King Sect is an especially renowned Sect in the Cultivation World!"
"If we’re lucky and co up with a decent Elixir recipe, we could not only obtain a Divine-grade Spiritual dicine, but we could also sell the recipe later and make a fortune. We’d have Cultivation resources too!"
"How great would that be?"
It did sound pretty good. Wang Mu understood Luo Qifang’s ntality; it was just like buying a lottery ticket. Buying one wasn’t a loss, and in the anti, one could fantasize about what it would be like after winning.
"Where is this Dan King Sect located?" Wang Mu suddenly asked.
"Not sure. The Dan King Sect has always been mysterious and is said to be hidden on so continent," Luo Qifang shook his head. "Brother Wang, these Spiritual dicines should mature next month. As for Mid-grade Spiritual dicines, Li Huo Palace can barely manage to concoct them, but the success rate isn’t high."
"Do you want to reserve a spot for you in advance? Otherwise, you might not find a place in Li Huo Palace to do Alchemy when the ti cos."
"Right now, many senior brothers on Dan Peak are raring to go. So in the Foundation Establishnt Realm don’t even need to use Li Huo Palace; they’re just waiting at Alcohol Sword Peak for the Spiritual dicines to be ready."
"Uhm... no thanks," Wang Mu said, waving his hand. "We’ll see when the ti cos."
This Dan King Sect was also so secretive.
That Divine-grade Elixir, the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill... only this Sect has it... Wang Mu pondered on his way back. Yan Qingwu was currently in seclusion. If that Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill could save her life, if Bi You was right... Yan Qingwu should know about the Dan King Sect, so why doesn’t she go there to ask for the dicine? Wang Mu sighed. Surely, just asking for a pill is better than losing her life, right?
To fail Crossing Tribulation and not die was already quite fortunate. Anyone else in her place would likely have beco a Loose Cultivator and started over by reforming their Primordial Spirit. Ever since returning from Linglong Love Abyss that day, Wang Mu had been pondering this issue.
Wang Mu did want to participate in this grand competition. At the very least, he could learn about the Dan King Sect, as disciples from the Sect would surely appear when the competition was held. Unfortunately, with my current Alchemy Skill, there’s hardly any room for improvent... My only other option is to break through to the Foundation Establishnt Realm first...
Back at Heavenly Sword Peak, Wang Mu couldn’t help but feel it was a pity. If I look at this from a gaming perspective, major events like this usually have related solutions or prerequisites... He often approached many problems from a gaming standpoint.
For instance, this Pill Master Convention, if it were in a ga, would undoubtedly be a crucial main quest. Connecting the dots, Wang Mu knew Yan Qingwu needed the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill, and this Elixir could only be obtained from the Dan King Sect. Yan Qingwu attempted Crossing Tribulation four years ago. Bi You had said she could only last another four or five years, and she began her seclusion a year ago. This indicated her condition was extrely serious; she might only have this year left.
From a gaming perspective, if Yan Qingwu were the female lead on the verge of death, the only possible way to save her would be to obtain the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill this year. The current Pill Master Convention was the only major event offering a chance to make contact with the Dan King Sect.
If this were a ga, theoretically, participation would be mandatory... Wang Mu gazed at the azure sky, a hint of lancholy stirring in his heart. But reality wasn’t a ga.
Besides, from another perspective, I am Yan Qingwu’s Heart Demon; she needs to vanquish to achieve immortality and enlightennt. If she were to perish, I would, relatively speaking, be in less danger. Of course, this is a decidedly selfish, Evil Path way of thinking, though not inherently wrong in itself.
Without the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill, the Tianqi Mountain task Bi You gave could also yield a Treasure... but its effect can’t compare. It’s likely the only alternative solution, and definitely not as good as obtaining the Heavenly Heart Protecting God Pill directly. No... there must be another way.
