Chapter 108: A sudden turn of events (Part )

After seeing Qin Ming, Gu Qingzhao hesitated and said.

"Otherwise, Fellow Daoist Qin, why don't you join them in crowdfunding to make pills? The materials you have are enough to qualify."

“I can introduce you in the middle.”

Qin frowned slightly when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "I wonder what the success rate and quality of the Foundation Establishment Pill produced by Alchemist Sun Jinnian is?"

"About 30%, and 40% if you're lucky. Master Sun is a second-class, top-grade alchemist, so this success rate is relatively high," Gu Qingzhao explained.

"As for the quality of the finished pills, there will be occasional cases where one or two Foundation Establishment Pills of top quality are produced, but the chance is very low."

When Qin Ming heard this, he immediately felt that the risk was too high and not very stable.

If it fails, all the materials accumulated over the past few years will be wasted.

And his original goal was not to get an ordinary quality Foundation Establishment Pill, but at least a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. Of course, a top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill would be even better.

Even if one raises funds through crowdfunding to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, how to distribute the pill is still a problem, and the initiative is not in one's hands.

By then, Master Sun Dan will definitely take a commission.

In the best case scenario, at most you can get one pill.

With my own qualifications, one foundation-building pill is not really safe.

Qin Ming weighed the pros and cons and decided to take the initiative into his own hands.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, after thinking about it, I decided to refine the foundation-building pill myself."

"Have you found out who has the main material, Chalcedony Ganoderma?" Qin Ming stated his decision and then asked.

Gu Qingzhao smiled calmly upon hearing this, as if he had expected Qin Ming to say this.

"I have already inquired about the situation. The main material for refining the foundation-building pill, the Jade Marrow Ganoderma, is in the hands of Shen Yuanxiong, the head of the Shen family in the west of the city."

"Shen Yuanxiong is a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. I think he initiated a crowdfunding campaign to raise materials for alchemy in order to seek foundation building pills for his descendants."

Qin Ming was quite puzzled: "Where did the chalcedony ganoderma in Shen Yuanxiong's hand come from?"

"I heard that this man's ancestor was once an elder of the Shennong Sect. He made outstanding contributions during his tenure and was given several treasures by the sect. This Jade Marrow Ganoderma is one of them."

"Afterwards, he was seriously injured, which cut off his foundation for the immortal path, so he came to Canghai Immortal City to settle down and establish a family and expand his family."

"The foundation-building pill that Shen Yuanxiong used when he was building his foundation was obtained through crowdfunding and alchemy by providing the main ingredient, Jade Marrow Ganoderma, more than ten years ago."

"I never thought that he had more than one piece of Chalcedony Ganoderma."

Gu Qingzhao said slowly.

Qin Ming felt hopeful when he heard this.

So he said to her, "Is Brother Gu familiar with the Shen family? If possible, could you introduce me to one or two people?"

Gu Qingzhao thought for a moment and then said:

"The Shen family is a family of talisman makers, and they have cooperation with our Jingxue Pavilion. I can naturally introduce them to Fellow Daoist Qin."

"However, whether or not I can obtain the Jade Marrow Ganoderma in the future depends on God's will."

"After all, Shen Yuanxiong wants to crowdfund materials for alchemy, so he probably won't sell the chalcedony ganoderma easily."

Qin Ming nodded, then left Jingxue Pavilion with Gu Qingzhao and headed towards the Shen family in the west of the inner city.

After a stick of incense.

Gu Qingzhao brought Qin Ming to the gate of the Shen family compound.

The doorman went in and passed the message.

The door opened, and a short and fat old man in fancy clothes walked out. He was in the early stage of foundation building.

He came out with a smile and bowed to Gu Qingzhao, "So it's Pavilion Master Gu who has come to visit!"

"Please come and sit inside my humble abode."

It seems that this person is Shen Yuanxiong.

Shen Yuanxiong also glanced at Qin Ming. He had never seen a young male cultivator accompanying Pavilion Master Gu of Jingxue Pavilion before, and he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

"Who is this?" He smiled at Qin Ming and asked Gu Qingzhao.

Gu Qingzhao said calmly: "This is Fellow Daoist Qin, an honorary guest of our pavilion."

After the other party said this, Shen Yuanxiong understood it instantly. However, such a young guest must be extraordinary. So he politely greeted Qin Ming, "Fellow Daoist Qin, please come in and have a cup of spiritual tea."

Then the two of them entered the Shen family compound.

But as soon as he entered the door, Qin Ming was stunned.

Because at this moment, there were more than twenty cultivators gathered in the Shen family compound, most of them were independent cultivators.

It seems that these monks all came here for the crowdfunding of alchemy.

It is estimated that after screening by the Shen family, only four or five people will remain here.

Shen Yuanxiong brought the two of them into a room, closed the door, and cast a soundproof ban. Then he asked, "I wonder if Pavilion Master Gu and Fellow Daoist Qin are here today to raise funds for alchemy?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming told the other party the purpose of his visit.

And offered generous conditions.

Shen Yuanxiong was embarrassed when he heard this. After a long while, he slowly said, "Pavilion Master Gu is not an outsider. I can tell you the truth."

"I do have two pieces of this Chalcedony Ganoderma left, but they are the last of my stock."

"If it weren't for my useless son, who still had the chance to reach the Perfect Qi Training Stage, I wouldn't have even planned to take it out."

"All my hopes are pinned on this. I cannot afford to make even the slightest mistake."

"So I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Qin will be disappointed."

Qin Ming frowned upon hearing this, thought for a moment, and then said decisively: "Then let me tell Senior Shen the truth, can you give me one of the chalcedony ganoderma for me to make the elixir."

"After the pill is made, I can also give Senior Shen a foundation-building pill."

Shen Yuanxiong's eyes widened when he heard this. He looked at Qin Ming in disbelief, then looked at Gu Qingzhao beside him, "Master Gu, could it be that Fellow Daoist Qin..."

"That's right, Fellow Daoist Qin is also a second-level alchemy master." Gu Qingzhao nodded slightly and replied with great certainty.

Only then did Shen Yuanxiong realize that he still underestimated the plain-looking Qin Ming in front of him.

No wonder then.

"So, Fellow Daoist Qin is actually a second-level alchemy master. I am so sorry!" Shen Yuanxiong recovered from his shock and asked, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Qin has ever refined a foundation-building pill?"

Hearing this, Qin Ming answered frankly: "Not yet, mainly due to the lack of spiritual materials."

"But Senior Shen, please rest assured. I am very confident in refining the foundation-building pill."

Gu Qingzhao also helped, saying, "I can guarantee this. Fellow Daoist Qin has already successfully refined the difficult-to-refine second-level elixir, the Rejuvenating Pill."

Shen Yuanxiong was stunned when he heard this. Since he had never refined it before, why was he so confident?

Moreover, he saw that Qin Ming was only in the late stage of Qi training and was very young. It was the first time he had heard of this person and he did not quite trust his alchemy skills.

He looks like a newly promoted second-level alchemist, and is quite youthful and energetic.

When Shen Yuanxiong thought about this, he had already made a decision.

Even with Pavilion Master Gu's guarantee, he couldn't joke about his clansmen's path to immortality.

He thought for a moment, and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I have reached an agreement with Alchemist Sun Jinnian. These two pieces of Jade Marrow Ganoderma must be refined by him."

Qin Ming was greatly disappointed when he heard this.

It seems that the other party still doesn't trust me, but this is normal.

"Well, I still have a piece of Chalcedony Ganoderma here, but its spirituality is severely damaged and its medicinal power is insufficient."

"I don't know if Fellow Daoist Qin can use it. If you need it, I can sell it to you."

Qin Ming originally planned to leave with disappointment, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better.

His eyes lit up immediately and he said hurriedly:

"really!"

Shen Yuanxiong nodded, then took out a long jade box from the storage bag and opened its lid.

A Ganoderma lucidum that looked like emerald and crystal clear appeared in the sight of Qin Ming and the others.
