Chapter 187: Refining elixir and domesticating monsters(1/2)

After returning from the underground market, Wang Ping's life returned to his previous state.

Every day, I either meditate and practice, or I am busy taming the "ice crystal poisonous scorpion".

At this time, he even made plans in his heart.

If it really doesn't work, he will wait until he tames the "ice crystal poisonous scorpion" and learn alchemy to see if he can try to refine the spiritual pill by himself.

Of course, this is just an immature idea that he would not do it unless he had to.

Now he has enough things to be distracted, and he really has no free time to learn another skill.

After practicing alone in the cave for half a year, Wang Ping and the "ice crystal poisonous scorpions" finally established a coexistence relationship.

The "ice crystal poisonous scorpion" in the Ice Valley finally adapted to his existence, remembered his breath, and would no longer attack him as soon as he discovered him as he did at the beginning.

This is a great progress. Once the demon insect is allowed to adapt to his existence, it will be much easier to do later.

The next step is to use subtraction to reduce the feeding of "ice nematodes" to make the "ice crystal poisonous scorpion" realize that only by getting close to him can you get more food.

Wang Ping is not very anxious about this. Anyway, he doesn't need these "ice crystal poisonous scorpions" to fight now, just keep them slowly.

After half a year of indirect investigation, he basically knew how to obtain the kind of spiritual pill that can improve his cultivation.

Anyone who has taken spiritual pills to improve his cultivation knows how useful this kind of spiritual pill is to improve his cultivation, and he will not be careless about this matter.

Therefore, although the spiritual pills suitable for monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage are rare, there is no way to do so.

Among those major sects, there are elders of the master sect who will give them some such elixirs to their disciples.

Even monks without elders in the sect will either collect materials themselves to find seniors who are good at alchemy to help refine spiritual elixirs, or several people will collect materials together to find people to refine alchemy.

The casual cultivators do not have this kind of convenience, but they also have their own methods.

As mentioned earlier, as long as you can afford spiritual stones in Biluo Immortal City, there will even be single-to-one sermons in the Killing Physical Stage monks to solve their doubts.

It is naturally possible to ask someone to refine alchemy and weapons.

Some monks who are famous for their alchemy skills will help people refine alchemy in some elixir shops in the city.

As long as the casual cultivator can afford some main medicine for spiritual pills and offer a spirit stone to purchase auxiliary medicines, there will be a master of alchemy with superb alchemy skills to help refine spiritual pills.

However, it is not a small problem to ask someone to refine the elixir like this.

First of all, once the alchemist succeeds in refining the alchemy, he will collect 30% of the alchemy as reward for refining the alchemy.

Secondly, there are all possible failures in alchemy. If the alchemy fails, there will be no compensation for materials and spirit stones.

Sometimes when you encounter an alchemist who doesn’t care about reputation, you will use the failure of alchemy to slap the spiritual medicine and swallow all the spiritual pills alone!

A furnace of spiritual pills suitable for cultivators in the diligent foundation-building stage can cost at least 10,000 or 20,000 low-grade spirit stones just for the material cost.

If the alchemy fails, there will be nothing left!

As a result, most immortal cultivators would rather spend a lot of money to buy ready-made elixirs than take the risk of asking someone to refine elixirs.

Of course, it is rare for alchemists who deliberately use the failure of alchemy to secretly use spiritual medicine.

After all, if you do too much such things and have a bad reputation, no one will dare to ask him to refine alchemy again.

In short, when Wang Ping is unable to obtain the elixir by using ordinary methods, he can only take the risk of trying this way of asking someone to refine the elixir.

He has many spiritual medicines in his hands, all of which are the hundreds of years of age-old spiritual medicines suitable for refining the spiritual pills that monks in the foundation-building stage take.

As for the thousand-year-old spiritual medicine, it is a spiritual medicine that can only be used by cultivators in the Killing Pill Stage. Even if Wang Ping has it, he would not dare to take it out.

Do it when you think about it, Wang Ping has excellent execution in this regard.

After many inquiries, he chose to go to a shop called "Yudan Pavilion" in Biluo Fairy City.

"Gu wanted to entrust Master Tao from Guidian to refine elixirs, and ask the shopkeeper to recommend it."

After entering the shop gate, Wang Ping waved his hand and waved his servant back to the receptionist, and walked directly to the counter where the shopkeeper was located to explain the situation.

The servants can't make the decision in this way, and even the shopkeeper can only help pass on the transmission.

Sure enough, when he heard what he said, the shopkeeper who was only at the peak of Qi Refining was shocked and quickly bowed to him politely: "Senior, I understand what I mean. I will notify Master Tao as quickly as possible to see if he has time to meet him recently."

"I'm lucky to be the shopkeeper. Then Gu will come to wait for the news in three days."

Wang Ping nodded slightly and returned to the cave.

Three days later, when Wang Ping came to the "Yudan Pavilion" again, the shopkeeper directly invited him to a quiet room in the backyard and saw the alchemy master who was already waiting here.

This alchemy master is named Tao Jingrong. Although his cultivation level is only perfect in foundation building, he is not inferior to those cultivators in the alchemy stage who have lived for four or five hundred years. There are even cultivators in the alchemy stage who have specially found him to refine alchemy.

Wang Ping chose to find Master Tao to refine alchemy because Master Tao has always had a good reputation. He can also be said to be the kind of person who cherishes his reputation very much, and the possibility of destroying his own brand is relatively smaller.

The most important thing is that "Yudan Pavilion" is the store of Master Tao's family. His smashing of his own brand is equivalent to smashing the brand of this old store.

So at this time, when he saw the white-haired alchemy master, Wang Ping also hurriedly took the initiative to salute, "I have met Master Tao at Xiagu Peak."

"Fellow Daoist Gu is polite. I wonder if Daoist Gu wants to see Tao, but he wants to ask Tao to refine what kind of spiritual pill?"

Tao Jingrong waved his hand, but went straight to the point.

This was exactly what Wang Ping wanted, and he immediately responded: "Gu did not hide it from Master Tao. More than two years ago, the Yunhua Secret Realm was opened. Gu was fortunate to enter it and got some spiritual medicines from the previous year. Because he knew that Master Tao was good at alchemy, he wanted to ask Master Tao to help refine some spiritual pills with diligent cultivation."

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Gu actually has this opportunity!"

Tao Jingrong's eyes lit up slightly on his originally calm face, and he was immediately excited by Wang Ping's words.

He suddenly swayed his hand and threw a jade slip in front of Wang Ping, and said in a deep voice: "This jade slip records the types of spiritual pills that Tao can refine and the main medicines needed to refine. Fellow Daoist Gu first check out what spiritual pills are in his hand, and then decide to ask Tao to refine which kind of spiritual pills."

Pill recipes are a very precious thing in the world of immortal cultivation and are also the most important part of the alchemist's inheritance.

Many shops in Biluo Fairy City rely on one or two unique elixirs to gain fame and maintain customer flow.

Therefore, in order to prevent anyone from replacing the pill recipe by relying on materials and comparison of pill samples, when alchemists accept commissioned alchemy, they will only label the names of several main medicines, and let them choose the pills they refine according to their situation.

Sometimes some alchemists even deliberately label one or two main medicines. One is to ensure that the pill recipe does not leak secrets, and the other is to try to apply spiritual medicine too much.

The client can only distinguish such things by his own eyes.

At this time, Wang Ping sank his spiritual sense into the jade slip and soon saw a variety of pill recipes.

Tao Jingrong made the content very detailed. The general effect of the elixir refined by each pill recipe and the success rate of the alchemy are clearly marked, so that it will not cause difficulty in choosing.

After spending about a quarter of an hour browsing the contents of the jade slip, Wang Ping pondered for a moment, then returned the jade slip to Tao Jingrong and said, "Master Tao, please hold it away. Gu happened to have two main medicines of Guyuan Pill and Biyou Dan. Among them, the main medicine of Guyuan Pill can refine three furnaces of spiritual pills, and the main medicine of Biyou Dan can refine one furnace of spiritual pills."

When Tao Jingrong heard this, his eyes lit up and he immediately clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay, I understand. As long as you send the main medicine here, you will pay the auxiliary medicine for each furnace of 5,400 and 4,500 low-grade spirit stones. I will definitely deliver the full amount of elixir to the Taoist in three months!"

When he said this, his tone was full of joy.

This is natural. After all, every time he successfully refines a furnace of spiritual pills, he can divide the number of spiritual pills into 30%.

This means that as long as he refines three furnaces of spiritual pills, he can get one furnace of spiritual pills for free.

How could he not be happy with such a great gain!

Wang Ping had no smile on his face at this time, but instead looked at Tao Jingrong calmly and said, "It's okay to deliver the main medicine, but Gu also has the conditions. Master Tao needs to refine a furnace of pills, so he handed over a furnace with Gu first!"

"Don't you trust me?"

Tao Jingrong's face suddenly changed and his tone suddenly became cold.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ping just replied indifferently: "It's not that I don't believe in Master Tao, but that I have always been used to being cautious next time. It involves such a large amount of spiritual stone transactions, so I can't help but treat it unscrupulously!"

Isn’t this just a saying that doesn’t believe it?

Tao Jingrong looked at Wang Ping with a gloomy face. After being silent for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, then do what you said for Fellow Daoist Gu."

Obviously, compared to the unhappiness that Wang Ping's words brought him, he still valued the real benefits more.

After the two reached an agreement, Wang Ping paid 5,400 low-grade spirit stones to Tao Jingrong and handed them over to him to purchase the auxiliary medicines needed for the first furnace of Guyuan Dan.

After seven days like this, Wang Ping returned to the "Yudan Pavilion" with three spiritual medicines worth over 500 years old, and then went to the Earth Fire Alchemy Room for rent in the city with Tao Jingrong.

More than four months later, Wang Ping returned to the cave with the twenty-five Guyuan pills and eight Biyou pills he deserved from Tao Jingrong.

This time, he consumed as many as thirteen rare spiritual medicines and more than 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones, almost hollowed out all the remaining spiritual stones in his hand.

However, Wang Ping still thinks these are worth it.

Because according to Tao Jingrong, after taking a Guyuan pill, it is almost as effective as his meditation and practice for more than a year, and the effect of Biyou pill is even better.

By doing this, as long as all the elixirs in his hand are refined, he can save him thirty or forty years of hard work in meditation and practice.

Compared with these time saved, what is the loss of just over 20,000 low-grade spirit stones?

Of course, in order to avoid elixir harming the body, Wang Ping will definitely not take these elixirs at one time.

After the Lingdan matter was resolved, Wang Ping also took a reassurance and no longer had any impatience.

Next, as long as he practices step by step, and practices before the age of 100 to the late stage of foundation building, it can almost be said that he will be sure to win.

In the next two years, Wang Ping was devoted to practicing in the cave, and never left the Biluo Immortal City during this period.

After several years of hard work, Wang Ping finally successfully conquered three of the eight "ice crystal poisonous scorpions", and since then he has the first strange insect.

In addition, he has collected and searched for several kinds of demon insect eggs for a long time, and now he has found two types of demon insect "Black Crystal Ant" and demon insect "Red Fire Bee", both of which have been hatched and domesticated by him.

These two kinds of demon insects, "Black Crystal Ant", are a demon insect known for its defense. The adult "Black Crystal Ant" is as big as an adult's thumb. It not only has strong resistance to magic attacks such as water, fire, wind and thunder, but also has extremely powerful physical defense. It is an excellent demon insect used to perform the secret technique of "Snail Armor Technique".

Moreover, after eating specially prepared pills, the "Black Crystal Ant" can also evolve into "Black Crystal Ant" to further enhance its defense.
