Cultivating Immortality Through a Hundred Lifetimes in Both Realms

Jiang Yun has now completed his foundation building.

Even if you don't venture out of the city, you still need to have a magical artifact by your side.

He planned to sell all the second-tier pills he had in a few days to exchange them for spirit stones.

Then buy a magical artifact and some furniture to decorate your cave.

In addition, some medicinal herb seeds need to be purchased to plant in the herb garden.

As for opening up a spirit pool to raise spirit fish, Jiang Yun is not so leisurely at the moment.

As an alchemist, one may not raise spirit fish, but one must cultivate spirit herbs.

So, Jiang Yun got busy.

He cultivated a small medicinal herb garden near the cave.

Judging from its size, it should be able to grow twenty or thirty medicinal herbs.

A few days later, the herb garden was completed, and all that was left was to get some medicinal herb seeds to plant.

Jiang Yun clapped his hands.

They were just about to set off immediately to Ningyuanfang to sell the pills.

Suddenly, he remembered that he still had five portions of medicinal herbs from the last second-tier low-grade alchemist assessment.

"I haven't refined any pills since I reached the Foundation Establishment stage."

"Let's refine all five portions of medicinal herbs into pills and then sell them together."

With this in mind, Jiang Yun immediately left the cave and headed to the Pill Hall.

At this time, his cave dwelling had not yet been developed into a pill-refining room, so it was more convenient to go to the pill hall to refine pills.

Jiang Yun arrived at the Pill Hall and used his divine sense to investigate, discovering that the Pill Hall's Grand Elder, Zhou Hongchang, was concentrating on refining pills.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun did not disturb them, but went straight into the former alchemy room and began to refine pills.

"After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, both one's cultivation level and the strength of one's spiritual sense undergo a qualitative change."

"From purifying the essence of the medicine to condensing and collecting the elixir, everything is much easier."

After establishing the foundation, purifying the essence of medicine becomes easier and faster, saving a lot of time.

This time, it only took two days to refine a batch of second-grade low-level Fire Essence Pills, and two pills were successfully produced.

"The higher one's cultivation level, the easier it is to refine pills; this is no exaggeration."

Jiang Yun was greatly encouraged and began refining the second batch of pills.

There are five portions of medicinal herbs and five batches of elixirs in total.

Ten days later, four batches were successfully refined, while one batch failed.

Obtained eight low-grade second-tier pills.

Jiang Yun opened his storage bag and put the eight second-grade low-level pills into it.

Including the pills refined by those who previously attempted to become second-tier low-grade alchemists.

He currently has twenty-nine low-grade second-tier pills in his storage bag.

They are respectively the second-tier low-grade Fire Essence Pill, Wood Essence Pill, and Earth Essence Pill.

"It's a pity that we can't refine the pill patterns yet."

"If I manage to refine a pill pattern, I'll keep it for myself to improve my cultivation."

Jiang Yun shook his head and put away the storage bag.

He can now take these pills to improve his cultivation.

However, these pills lack the characteristic markings of pills, resulting in significantly weaker medicinal effects.

"The five types of Yuan Dan (original pills) of the second-tier low grade, namely metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, can all improve the cultivation of cultivators in the early stage of Foundation Establishment."

"However, each type of pill can only be taken in maximum of eight pills; otherwise, taking more will have no effect and will only increase the risk of erysipelas."

Jiang Yun fell into deep thought.

Ultimately, he decided that there was no need to rush to take ordinary second-tier Yuan Pills to improve his cultivation.

If you're going to take medicine, you have to take the best kind to break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop!

"There are five types of second-grade low-level Yuan Pills. Each type can be taken in doses of eight. A cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment can take a total of forty pills."

"If you refine and absorb four pills each year, you can raise your cultivation to the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage in ten years. However, this is based on consuming second-grade low-quality Yuan Pills without pill patterns."

"If I could refine pill patterns, and consume forty second-tier Yuan Pills with these patterns, I could break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop!"

Soon, Jiang Yun resisted the temptation of the pills.

He resolved to spend a few more years refining the pill patterns for a second-grade low-level pill.

When the time comes, take the second-tier Danwen Yuan Dan and break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop.

"It's easy to raise your cultivation level to the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage by taking medicine, but it's extremely difficult to break through from the early Foundation Establishment stage to the middle Foundation Establishment stage."

"Some cultivators are stuck at this bottleneck and cannot make any progress for twenty or thirty years."

"I can't put the cart before the horse. Once I've refined the second-tier pill with the pill pattern, I'll have plenty of time to take pills and improve my cultivation."

Jiang Yun did the math.

Consuming a second-tier Yuan Pill with Dan patterns allows one to break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage in one fell swoop, making it undoubtedly the best choice.

"With my alchemy skills, plus my innate talent in alchemy veins, I'm sure I can refine the alchemical patterns for a mere second-grade low-level pill."

The opportunity to break through to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage lies in the second-tier Yuan Dan with Dan patterns.

Jiang Yun naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.

He immediately left the cave and went to Zhou's Pill Shop, intending to sell all the second-tier Yuan Pills without any pill patterns.

This time, he didn't disguise himself; he appeared before Zhou Hongsheng in his true form.

"Greetings, Grand Elder."

When Zhou Hongsheng saw Jiang Yun arrive at the Zhou family shop, he immediately got up to greet her.

"I have twenty-nine second-grade low-level Yuan Pills."

Jiang Yun cut straight to the point, took out a jade bottle containing pills, and said in a deep voice:

"These twenty-nine pills will be sold at Zhou's Pill Shop. I will take fourteen thousand spirit stones with me."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Hongsheng quickly understood what Jiang Yun meant.

A second-grade low-level Yuan Dan sells for 500 Yuan Stones in the market.

Twenty-nine low-grade Yuan Pills can be bought for 14500 Yuan Stones.

Jiang Yun took 14000 Yuan Stones directly.

Zhou's Dan Shop can still earn 500 yuan per stone.

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhou Hongsheng gave a bitter smile to himself.

Jiang Yun is now the clan's elder, managing the Pill Hall and Zhou's Pill Shop.

If Jiang Yun were to ask for 30,000 taels of silver, then we would have to give it to him!

Zhou Hongsheng quickly retrieved the account book and wrote on it:

"Today, Zhou's Pill Shop received 29 second-grade low-level Yuan Pills and spent 14,000 Yuan Stones."

After recording the accounts, he intended to check the quality and quantity of the pills in the jade bottle.

However, considering that the person who brought the pills was the family's eldest elder, he did not do so.

Presumably, the Grand Elder, being a Foundation Establishment cultivator and a second-tier alchemist, would not use inferior pills to pass off as superior ones.

So Zhou Hongsheng took out a storage bag and took out 14,000 yuan stones from it.

"Elder, here are fourteen thousand spirit stones. Please take a look."

Zhou Hongsheng's storage bag.

There are only 30,000 Yuan Stones inside.

These are the reserve spirit stones used by Zhou's alchemy shop to acquire elixirs with cinnabar patterns.

Now half of it is gone.

"Um."

Jiang Yun scanned the area with his divine sense and found exactly 14,000 spirit stones, no more, no less.

After obtaining the Yuan Stone, he did not linger at Zhou's Pill Shop and turned to leave.

"Respectfully seeing off the Grand Elder."

Zhou Hongsheng hurriedly saw him off.

Only after Jiang Yun had completely disappeared from sight did he return to the shop and pick up the jade bottle to check the pills inside.

After checking, it was found that there were exactly twenty-nine second-grade low-level Yuan Pills inside, not one more and not one less.

The quantity was confirmed to be correct, and no inferior pills were mixed in to pass off as genuine.

Zhou Hongsheng couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

the other side.

After leaving Zhou's Pill Shop, Jiang Yun went straight to the street next door.

There are many weapon-refining shops on the next street.

Some weapon-refining shops directly sell magical artifacts and treasures.

Some shops have a craftsman in charge, providing crafting services. Customers only need to provide materials and corresponding payment.
