Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 85 Foundation Establishment Pill Recipe [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

[Alchemy Room lv2]

[Effect: Success rate of Tier 1 pills +40%, Tier 2 pills +20%, Tier 3 pills +5%, automatically learns "Foundation Building Pill"]

[Upgrade Requirements: 20 Medium-grade Spirit Stones, 3 Misty Hidden Poria Cocos, 5 Mysterious Water Serpent Grass, and successfully refine one Water Spirit Pill (Not yet achieved)]

Looking at the text on the panel.

Ji Yuan was taken aback at first.

Then came an "Huh?!!!!"

His gaze automatically ignored the success rate of the pills in front of him and subconsciously locked onto the words "Foundation Building Pill".

Automatically learning the Foundation Establishment Pill... This reminded Ji Yuan of the level 2 [Talisman Room]. He hurriedly summoned the panel to check the effects of the level 2 Talisman Room.

There is a similar line of text above.

[Automatically learn "Easy-to-Shape Symbols"]

The Shape-Changing Talisman, as the name suggests, can change one's appearance; this is definitely an essential item when going out.

Now, the level 2 [Alchemy Room] allows you to directly learn the refining technique for Foundation Establishment Pills. Once you learn this... coupled with the spiritual effects of the level 2 Alchemy Room, it increases the success rate of second-tier pills by 20%... level up!

An upgrade is necessary!

Luckily, I unlocked the alchemy skill tree, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered this amazing thing.

It seems we still need to explore the role of the panel more and try to develop more buildings.

For example, you can also try things like the [Formation Room].

Ji Yuan had already begun to fantasize about how, once he successfully established his foundation, he could use the panel's effects to refine Foundation Establishment Pills and make a fortune.

"call--"

After a brief moment of joy, Ji Yuan calmed down.

Therefore, for the next period of time, I will have to focus on alchemy as my side job, and I need to get my alchemy skills to the first-grade high level as soon as possible.

Fortunately, both drawing talismans and refining elixirs are profitable.

Especially now, with the Water Dragon Sect and the Joyful Palace at war, they've made even more money.

With this thought in mind, Ji Yuan, after a brief pause, resumed his alchemy plan.

Meanwhile, next door, at the Wen family's house.

The moment Wen Lin returned home, Zhao Yuechan was already there to greet him, asking softly, "Husband, what did Brother Ji say?"

Wen Lin didn't rush to speak. Instead, he sat down, picked up the tea on the table, and drank it all in one gulp before letting out a long sigh. "He didn't agree."

"this……"

Zhao Yuechan's face was somewhat unpleasant. She sat down opposite them and quickly said, "The message we received said that Brother Ji and Luo Tian have become friends. There are four of them. How could they be afraid of the Yue family? The Yue family only has three late-stage Qi Refining experts, two of whom are at the seventh level of Qi Refining."

"I don't know."

Wen Lin shook his head. "Either Brother Ji is too cautious, or... he wants to keep that Qinghui Grass for himself."

"Of course, he refused before I even heard about the Yue family's situation. I guess he was being very cautious. And it wasn't that he refused, but that he wasn't strong enough yet, and that he would wait until his cultivation level improved in a few years before making a move."

"That's good, that's good."

Zhao Yuechan reached out and gently patted her chest.

"But this trip wasn't entirely fruitless," Wen Lin said with a smile.

"Oh? What did you learn?"

Wen Lin then told him about Ji Yuan's alchemy, and finally added a careful instruction, "Brother Ji, you must not tell anyone about your alchemy. It's enough that you and I know."

"Don't worry, I definitely know that!"

Zhao Yuechan nodded vigorously, "That's good too. Brother Ji is aloof, and we were just worried about how to get closer to him."

"Um."

Wen Lin exhaled a breath of stale air and nodded, saying, "I plan to give him the incomplete Foundation Establishment Pill formula first."

"What?!"

Zhao Yuechan, who had just sat down, immediately stood up. "Husband, you... have such valuable things..."

"Sit down, sit down and talk."

Wen Lin waved his hand, "There's no use for us keeping this Foundation Establishment Pill formula, especially since it's incomplete. We might as well give it to Brother Ji to build a good relationship, so he won't forget about it."

"We can both see his personality to some extent; he's not the kind of person who would turn his back on someone after taking a benefit."

"That's true..."

After calming down, Zhao Yuechan nodded slightly, "Then you can decide this matter, my husband. I will listen to you."

"Um."

Wen Lin clenched his fist, as if making a final decision.

Zhao Yuechan immediately brought over a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. Wen Lin wrote down the incomplete prescription he knew by heart, then checked it several times to make sure it was correct before putting it away and leaving.

This time the wait was longer.

Ji Yuan only opened the door and let Wen Lin in after he finished refining the second batch of Hundred Herbs Pills.

"Brother Wen, is there anything else you forgot to tell me?"

Wen Lin smiled but didn't say anything.

He took out the neatly folded white paper, handed it out with both hands, and pushed it from the table to Ji Yuan.

"This is?"

Ji Yuan looked at him with some confusion.

"This is the incomplete Foundation Establishment Pill formula that I know of," Wen Lin said in a deep voice.

"What?!"

Ji Yuan was genuinely surprised.

Although this pill formula is incomplete, it is still a formula for Foundation Establishment Pills.

Once it becomes related to Foundation Establishment, it will attract many people to compete for it. Not to mention the small Yunyu Marsh, even in the Water Dragon Sect, there would probably be many people vying for it.

Although Ji Yuan would automatically obtain the pill recipe once the [Alchemy Room] is upgraded to level 2, knowing it in advance means he can make plans earlier.

"It's just incomplete and not very useful, but Brother Ji, please accept it."

Wen Lin spoke again.

Ji Yuan knew that Wen Lin wanted his help to resolve that matter...

Perhaps sensing Ji Yuan's dilemma, Wen Lin explained softly, "Don't worry, there's no rush for revenge. Besides, I just went back and thought about it carefully. Compared to revenge, I would much rather have Brother Ji as a friend."

"There's no rush to take revenge."

If the other party has already put it this way, and I still hesitate, then it's my own problem.

"Thank you very much, Brother Wen."

Ji Yuan bowed slightly and took the white paper. He unfolded it, and the ink on it was still wet. He looked at it.

One thousand-year-old Qinghui grass, three hundred-year-old gentian grasses, two bottles of Three-Flower Jade Dew, one second-tier demon core, and one pot of earth vein spiritual spring.

The Three-Flower Jade Dew needs to be condensed from morning dew and preserved in a Mysterious Ice Jade Bottle.

The refining process requires drawing upon the earth's ley lines to heat the furnace for three days...

Even though it was an incomplete prescription, it contained a great deal of information, suggesting that refining this Foundation Establishment Pill was no simple task. After Ji Yuan finished reading it, Wen Lin spoke up at the opportune moment:

"The only medicinal herb I know is this thousand-year-old Qinghui grass."

"Um."

Ji Yuan put away the pill formula. "Don't worry, once I'm strong enough, I'll definitely speak to Brother Wen about it."

"Okay, there's no rush."

After Wen Lin finished speaking, he got up to take his leave.

Just as Ji Yuan was about to leave, he remembered something and asked, "Brother Wen, what about this pill formula...?"

Wen Lin knew what he wanted to say, and took the initiative to speak up: "Don't worry, since the pill formula has been given to Brother Ji, then it is up to Brother Ji to do with it. I just hope that Brother Ji will not involve me."

"That's natural."

Ji Yuan nodded.

After seeing Wen Lin off, Ji Yuan looked at the pill formula several times over, and after confirming that he had memorized it, he made four more copies by hand.

This thing... definitely has to be shared with Yao Jingfeng and the others, not to mention that this was originally agreed upon when the four of them formed an alliance.

Moreover, sharing with them can also help them find clues and see if they can gather all the materials for the pill formula sooner.

Things like earth vein springs are relatively common and can be found in the Treasure Pavilion, but other items are not available there and you have to find them yourself.

Second-tier demon cores are definitely available for sale, but Yun Yuze doesn't have them.

This item isn't scarce; I can wait until I join the Water Dragon Sect before buying it.

The next day, just as Ji Yuan finished packing up his house and was preparing to leave Zengtou City to inform Yao Jingfeng and the other two.

However, he received a message from Du Wanyi first. She came in person, which suggests that this matter is quite extraordinary.

"Fourth brother, you look like you're about to go out? Is it something urgent?"

After Du Wanyi entered the room, she sat down and poured herself tea without being greeted.

"No, what urgent matter could I possibly have?"

Ji Yuan was in no hurry to reveal his own story.

"That's good."

"Second Sister, is it because something's wrong with Eldest Brother and the others that you've come here?"

"No, I found something good and I want to share it with you all." Du Wanyi leaned closer and lowered her voice, saying, "Something good related to Foundation Establishment."

"Um?"

Ji Yuan subconsciously raised his head, his eyes showing some surprise.

Du Wanyi seemed quite satisfied with his reaction, so she reached out and patted his shoulder. "Don't ask, okay? I can't tell you in advance. Tomorrow, we'll meet at Shuangyan Island. We'll talk about it together when we see our eldest brother and third brother. Fourth brother, you know where Shuangyan Island is, right?"

Shuangyan Island is not far from Zengtou City. With the speed of the Thunder Falcon Boat, even without full power, it would take less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to get there.

Ji Yuan nodded, then said somewhat helplessly, "Second Sister, aren't you just keeping us in suspense?"

Du Wanyi could have simply said she wanted to meet without revealing the second part, and Ji Yuan and the others would have gone anyway. But she insisted on saying the extra part.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Du Wanyi laughed so hard she covered her mouth and leaned back. "Yeah, that's just to keep you in suspense."

Ji Yuan thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, even if Second Sister hadn't come today, I was planning to go find you all."

"Oh? Fourth brother, is there something you need?"

Du Wanyi gradually stopped smiling.

Ji Yuan hummed in agreement. "I did obtain something good, which is also related to Foundation Establishment, and I want to share it with you all."

Du Wanyi's small mouth opened into a circle.

"Fourth brother... good brother, how about we switch places first?"

Du Wanyi's eyes darted around slightly.

Clearly, even those who hang others are afraid of being hanged themselves.

"Second Sister, it's best not to ask. We can't tell you in advance. Let's meet at Shuangyan Island tomorrow. We'll talk about it together when we see Eldest Brother and Third Brother. Second Sister, you know where Shuangyan Island is, right?"

Ji Yuan returned the exact same words to Du Wanyi.

But the more he talked, the more he couldn't help but laugh.

As for Du Wanyi… she was furious, and in the end, she could only say angrily, “Fourth brother, I never thought I misjudged you!”

"I never expected someone who looks so honest to be so dishonest in private!"

"You're absolutely awful!"

Du Wanyi said this and walked angrily toward the door. But as she reached the door, she didn't forget to remind him again.

"Don't forget about tomorrow!"

Ji Yuan got up to see him off.

"Of course I remember."
