Volume 1: The Decline of the Yue Family Chapter 11: Tong Jing Dan Seeks Collection Recommendations

  Ten days later, Yue Zifeng personally delivered the alchemy formula and medicinal materials for the Four-Treasures Pill to Yue Cheng. The alchemy formula for the Four-Treasures Pill was extremely valuable, so Yue Zifeng didn't dare let anyone else deliver it, and instead went himself as it was safer that way.

  Time flies when one is fully engaged in alchemy. Three months passed quickly, and Yue Cheng finally succeeded in refining 22 third-grade elixirs. He had taken 24 sets of medicinal materials, fearing that he might make a mistake and waste some materials, so he took four extra sets. It's not uncommon for alchemy to fail. After using the 24 sets of medicinal materials, Yue Cheng was able to refine 22 elixirs, which was already a remarkable achievement.

  In these three months, Yue Cheng's cultivation successfully entered the late stage of foundation building. This speed of practice is not slow at all. Others would need two years to advance from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage, even with exceptional talent. Having a super strong realm is just different.

  "It's time to refine the fourth-grade elixir." Yue Cheng sat cross-legged and muttered to himself. He took out a green jade slip and a pile of medicinal materials for refining the fourth-grade elixir from his spatial storage bag, placing them in front of him. The green jade slip contained the recipe for the fourth-grade elixir that Yue Zifeng had brought back.

  The elixir is divided into nine grades, among which the first grade, second grade and third grade are all lower-grade elixirs. The fourth to sixth grades are mid-grade elixirs, and those above seventh grade are high-grade elixirs. Generally speaking, the recipes for mid-grade elixirs are extremely precious objects, and unlike lower-grade elixir recipes, they are not simply recorded on paper, but are instead copied onto jade slips.

  Yue Cheng picked up the green jade slip, and a wisp of spiritual energy slowly flowed into the jade slip. Suddenly, the green jade slip was filled with a brilliant green light, and then a burst of green light shot towards Yue Cheng's brow. In an instant, the green light disappeared, and the green jade slip lost its original luster.

  Just now, the green mang is the elixir formula of the four-product elixir. From the elixir formula, Yue Cheng also knew that this four-product elixir was called 'Tong Jing Dan'. For those who practice Dou Qi, it has a fatal temptation. It can help Dou Qi practitioners to open up their meridians throughout their body, allowing them to practice at an incredible speed of one day and one thousand miles.

  In his mind, he carefully recalled the records of Danfang, and after a moment, Yue Cheng's expression began to become serious. With his current foundation-building cultivation, refining fourth-grade elixirs should be extremely difficult, but it was something that couldn't be avoided. Currently, he had no money on him, and he couldn't afford to buy the materials for the cultivation equipment and arrays, so he could only give it a try.

  He activated the Xuan Yuan True Classic heart method, and a skilled hand seal appeared in Yue Cheng's hand. Immediately, two flames on his hands poured into the alchemy furnace. After breaking through to the later stage of foundation building, the flame of the Supreme Fire had become much stronger. Looking at the bright red alchemy furnace, Yue Cheng was really worried that it would crack open. It seemed that he must find a good alchemy furnace in the future, as using a fake one was unreliable.

  A month later, a loud explosion suddenly came from Yue Cheng's room, and then a fierce flame burst out. Only to see Yue Cheng running out of the room with a panicked face, his face was pitch black, and his clothes were also burned to shreds.

  It was just in the last second of Tong Jing Dan's completion that the furnace finally couldn't withstand the high temperature and suddenly exploded. Fortunately, Yue Cheng's eyes were quick and he grabbed the three Tong Jing Dans that had been refined, and immediately set up a protective circle, so he didn't suffer any injuries.

  "Damn it, next time I'll definitely not use a fake Dan furnace again." Yue Cheng looked at his disheveled appearance and couldn't help but curse, almost getting killed by the Dan furnace.

  "Fire! Come and put out the fire!" Hearing the loud explosion, many servants rushed over and were frightened by the rolling flames in Yue Cheng's room. They immediately went to fetch water to put out the fire.

  "Master, are you alright?" Feng's wife also rushed out and saw Yue Cheng's disheveled appearance and his face covered in black, fearing something had happened.

  "Feng Shu, I'm fine, just accidentally set the room on fire." Yue Cheng said softly, looking at the room he had burned, also feeling a bit embarrassed.

  In a moment, the fire in the room was extinguished. Fortunately, the fire was controlled in time, so it did not spread to the next room, otherwise all the rooms in this row would have been burned down.

  The room was already in a mess, and all the wooden furniture inside had basically turned black and emitted a pungent smell. The room could not be lived in without renovation, so Mrs. Feng arranged another room for Yue Cheng.

  Genbao Sect is a place that specializes in buying and selling aura, magic accessories, and other rare items. It's said that the power of Genbao Sect is also the strongest among several dozen nearby towns. They sell some hard-to-find good stuff here, such as magic scrolls, magically enhanced weapons, aura techniques, and high-quality elixirs.

  The Yuanbao Sect is located in Qixing City, which is also the most prosperous place among dozens of small towns nearby. Three days later, a black figure appeared at the gate of the Yuanbao Sect. He was dressed in a black robe and even wore a black bamboo hat on his head, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

  "Who are you, and what business do you have with Yuanbao Sect?" The two disciples guarding the grand entrance of Yuanbao Sect hurriedly stepped forward to ask the mysterious black-robed person. These two gatekeepers were actually both at the One-Star Dou Shi cultivation level.

  The man in black was indeed Yue Cheng. He had heard from Yue Zifeng's mouth that Yuanbao Sect was a place where he could sell his four-product elixir, and there were only a few shops in the entire Qixing City that had the strength to trade in such goods. Among them, Yuanbao Sect was one of the strongest, so Yue Cheng planned to sell his four-product elixir here.

  "I'm looking for the person in charge here, go and inform them." Yue Cheng said coldly to the two gatekeepers from Yuanbaozong, trying not to reveal his identity, he had to disguise himself as mysterious.

  "Just wait a moment, I'll go and inform." One of the door-disciples of Yuanbao Sect saw that Yue Cheng was dressed in mystery, his tone of speech also strong and hard, fearing he might be some kind of formidable figure, so he didn't dare to decline, immediately going inside to inform.

  In a moment, the gatekeeper of Yuanbao Sect led out an old man in grey robes.

  "What kind of person is sir? I am the steward here." The old man in gray robes slightly sized up Yue Cheng.

  "I need to sell this." Yue Cheng took out a jade bottle from his body and handed it over to the gray-robed old man, who looked around fifty years old with short gray hair and was a one-star Dou Ling, also considered a formidable expert.

  "Come, sir, please follow me." The old man in gray took the jade bottle from Yue Cheng's hand and immediately changed his expression. He hastily bowed slightly to Yue Cheng and asked him to enter first before speaking. These three fourth-grade elixirs were absolutely precious items.
