Beast Families: I Have an Illustrated Book of All Souls

Chapter 1555 Two Methods to Simulate the Yuan Pill (Two-in-One, Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)

As Ye Jingcheng finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent, everyone's mind replaying his words.

For most alchemists, fifth-tier top-grade alchemists are extremely mysterious, let alone sixth-tier alchemists.

Previously, they only knew why there were so few sixth-order alchemists, but at this moment, they finally understood the stringent requirements for sixth-order alchemists and why there were so few of them.

It not only requires the great power of heaven and earth to enter the furnace, but also requires the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to be integrated into the pill.

Don't think this is simple. It means that either the cultivator has mastered the divine domain to an extraordinary degree, or the divine domain they have comprehended is a divine domain specifically for alchemy.

These two things are impossible for most Nascent Soul cultivators, let alone Core Formation cultivators.

Ye Jingcheng glanced around and found that Qing Xuan, Qing Xia, and even Yuan Tan, these top-grade fifth-level alchemists, were not overly surprised.

It's obvious they already knew that.

Among the three sixth-tier alchemists, one of them is from the Divine Medicine Sect.

However, it is said that it has been in seclusion for six or seven hundred years.

There has been no news since.

His disciple, Fairy Zi Ning, was clearly unaware of this; her eyes were sparkling with intelligence.

After all, an alchemist is usually only good at spiritual fire and alchemy, and there are very few who are good at both alchemy and combat and have a strong physical body.

For these alchemists, the ideal is to break through in the Dao of Alchemy and thus reach the Nascent Soul stage. This would allow them to have an extremely high status even after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.

"Of course, becoming a sixth-order alchemist doesn't mean you can't rely on external forces!" Ye Jingcheng paused for a moment before speaking again.

This opening statement immediately piqued the interest of top alchemists such as True Monarch Qingxia and True Monarch Qingxuan.

"Currently, I've discovered two methods: one is a sixth-order alchemy furnace, and the other is a sixth-order spiritual fire!" Ye Jingcheng didn't hide anything and generously shared them.

Although this information is quite valuable, in fact, a sixth-level alchemist could still figure it out if they thought about it.

Ye Jingcheng learned of this so quickly because he had obtained a sixth-order alchemy furnace in the Earthly Immortal Realm by chance.

As for the sixth-order spirit fire, the Crimson Flame Fox's natal heavenly fire, although not quite sixth-order, still carried a great deal of extraordinary spiritual essence. Combined with Ye Jingcheng's divine domain, it made the alchemy process much smoother.

Now that the Crimson Flame Fox is not available, although he is not confident in refining top-tier sixth-order spirit pills, he can still refine some simple sixth-order spirit pills.

Having said that, Ye Jingcheng didn't continue.

He shared this to solidify the Ye family's reputation as a family of alchemists.

In addition, it is not easy for other forces to collect sixth-order alchemy furnaces and sixth-order spiritual fire.

Therefore, he was not worried that it would harm his own interests.

Secondly, with this alchemy gathering, Ye Qingnian's social skills will allow him to establish good relationships with these alchemy forces, making it much easier for him to find spiritual herbs for alchemy in the future.

"If any of you have alchemy commissions in the future, you can come to Penglai Island in the Great Yu Realm," Ye Jingcheng said at the end, then picked up the teacup beside him and began to drink the spiritual tea.

The wisps of tea steam made Ye Jingcheng's figure appear even more imposing, and many alchemists were extremely grateful to him.

Upon hearing that the Ye family was also accepting alchemy commissions, they all kept it in mind.

Don't think that alchemists don't need to commission others to refine pills.

After all, they were only at the fifth rank, while Ye Jingcheng was at the sixth rank. They had also heard that, in addition to Ye Jingcheng, the Ye family had another genius alchemist with the strength of the early Nascent Soul stage, who was already able to refine fifth-rank high-grade spiritual pills.

After expressing their gratitude, the cultivators began to leave one after another.

Today's harvest has broadened their horizons.

They simply didn't know what a sixth-order alchemy furnace and a sixth-order spiritual fire meant, so they were all full of enthusiasm.

Huang Shen Zhenjun did not leave early. He looked at the old friends who had come with him and found that they ignored his telepathic message.

My heart is filled with even more panic.

So he didn't leave, but waited until everyone else had left before coming to Ye Qingnian's side.

"Patriarch Ye, I still have..."

"Let's talk in the side hall!" Ye Qingnian saw the hesitant look in Huang Shen Zhenjun's eyes and naturally knew that the other party wanted to talk in another place.

What puzzled him was that the other party hadn't shown him any kindness or hadn't been very friendly before this alchemy gathering.

Now they clearly want to offer him treasures and curry favor.

However, after thinking about it, he realized that his father was a sixth-level alchemist, so it was normal for these fifth-level alchemists to fawn over him.

Although he despised such people, as the head of the Ye family, he naturally wouldn't lay a hand on a smiling face.

"Patriarch Ye, this is a pill formula I obtained in the Earthly Immortal Realm. I wonder if the Ye family is capable of refining it?" True Monarch Huangshen took out a jade slip and presented it to Ye Qingnian.

Upon seeing the contents of the jade slip, Ye Qingnian was also taken aback.

Because this pill formula is not a fifth-order pill formula, but a sixth-order pill formula.

This elixir has only one name: Ni Yuan Dan (拟元丹).

It can simulate the aura and energy of a top-level Nascent Soul cultivator.

If activated properly, even a Nascent Soul cultivator can simulate the Nascent Soul stage and deceive a Nascent Soul cultivator.

This alone is enough to show how mysterious this pseudo-Yuan Pill is.

"Patriarch Ye, I haven't been able to collect this spiritual herb either, so I won't set a deadline. Once the Ye family has refined it, just give me one!" Although True Monarch Huangcan said he was requesting alchemy, in reality he was just giving the Ye family a pill formula.

Although he himself didn't really need the recipe.

But after all, it's a sixth-tier pill formula, and any immortal sect could obtain considerable resources from it.

Ye Qingnian was puzzled as to why Huang Shen Zhenjun did this.

“Fellow Daoist Huang, of course. I will pass this on to my father. If you have any other requests, you can come to the Ye family at any time. As long as it is within the Ye family’s capabilities, we will do our best to help!” Ye Qingnian did not put away the jade slip, but asked.

Clearly, he suspected that Huang Shen Zhenjun had other conditions.

Of course, you should ask clearly.

“A commission to refine pills is a commission to refine pills. I haven’t even offered any payment, which is already a great favor. How could I dare to make any demands?” True Monarch Huangcan waved his hands repeatedly.

"If Patriarch Ye hears any rumors, I hope you won't take them to heart."

Hearing this, Ye Qingnian was still puzzled, but he didn't press the matter further.

Huang Shen Zhenjun then took his leave.

……

Outside, inside a restaurant, the Nascent Soul cultivators who had come with True Monarch Huangcan gathered together once again.

"Fellow Daoist Bai Xuan, have we offended Fellow Daoist Huang Can...?"

"Offended? He offended the Ye family. Are we going to be implicated along with him?"

"Besides, even if True Monarch Yuan Tan has guessed what's going on, he still demands that you and I do this. Do you think we can refuse and continue to offend the Ziyang Sect?" The fellow Daoist called Bai Xuan was also extremely annoyed.

They came to attend the alchemy gathering, hoping to get to know the Ye family, but because of Huang Shen Zhenjun's initial arrogance and previous rudeness towards Ye Qingnian, they certainly won't have a good impression of him.

In addition, Yuan Tan Zhenjun put pressure on them and secretly sent them messages telling them to stay away from Huang Can Zhenjun, so they naturally had no choice but to comply.

Otherwise, if the Ye family and the Ziyang Sect were to attack True Monarch Huangcan, they would be innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire.

"Alright, don't worry. This time, Fellow Daoist Huang brought it upon himself. Although he will suffer some losses, it will at least serve as a lesson for his constant gossip."

After these words were spoken, the others fell silent.

They weren't afraid of Huang Shen Zhenjun's retaliation, after all, their power was no less than that of Huang Shen Zhenjun's sect, and they also had leverage over Huang Shen Zhenjun. They figured Huang Shen Zhenjun wouldn't dare retaliate against them.

After all, if they were to appeal to the Ye family's Huangshen Zhenjun for his treasonous words, the Ye family would not forgive him.

These days, it's difficult for a Nascent Soul cultivator to target another Nascent Soul cultivator, but it's very easy for a Nascent Soul cultivator to target another Nascent Soul cultivator.

Not to mention the Ye family, a power with a sixth-level alchemist.

Unless it is a core subordinate Nascent Soul force of a Nascent Soul force, it is highly likely that the Nascent Soul force will not receive complete protection.

There are countless examples of this in the world of cultivation.

……

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng naturally had no idea what the others outside were thinking.

At this moment, in a corner of the secret realm, Ye Jingcheng had already begun to set up an array.

Ahead of him were True Lord Yuan Tan and Fairy Zi Ning.

The former was something he had promised beforehand, and the latter was his apprentice.

Since Zheng Yuan Shenjun held nothing back from him, he naturally wouldn't hold back either.

"You two each refine your best elixirs, and let me see your limits." Although Ye Jingcheng's words at the alchemy gathering were impressive, they were, in fact, just theory.

The difference between the fifth and sixth orders is certainly not just a matter of a sentence or two.

Among these, proficiency in elixirs, control over spiritual fire, and various alchemy techniques are all crucial.

Sometimes, it's not something that can be explained in just a few words.

However, guiding alchemy is different.

It can truly improve one's alchemy skills.

"Thank you very much, Senior Qianchen!"

"Thank you, Master!" Both women were overjoyed.

This was taught by a sixth-level alchemist, something they wouldn't have dared to even dream of before.

After all, there were only three sixth-order alchemists in the surrounding mortal realms.

After expressing their gratitude, the two began refining elixirs.

The pill refined by True Monarch Yuan Tan is a top-grade fifth-tier Fire Essence Ascension Pill, which is an excellent elixir for fire-attribute cultivators to enhance their cultivation.

Fairy Zi Ning refined the Water-attribute Mist Cloud Pill.

A spiritual pill that enhances the true essence of water-attribute cultivators.

Although the two were refining pills together, Ye Jingcheng felt no pressure.

After breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, he condensed his Primordial Spirit, and his divine sense became much stronger. Not to mention two Nascent Soul cultivators refining pills in front of him, even if there were two more, he would have no problem at all.

The problem with both of them in alchemy is also obvious: they have some rigid thinking.

Furthermore, the processing of many pill formulas is flawed because the cultivators who create these pills are not perfect, leading to some errors in the handling of the pill formulas and medicinal herbs.

These flaws are not usually noticeable, but they become apparent when refining higher-grade elixirs.

Ye Jingcheng's skill in refining elixirs stemmed from his talent for it.

Secondly, the pill formulas given by Ye Jingcheng's precious book were almost all perfect, and the stimulation and combination of spiritual herbs in them gave him a lot of inspiration.

After instructing the two, Ye Jingcheng took out the alchemy furnace and began refining elixirs.

This time, instead of taking out a sixth-grade alchemy furnace, he used a fifth-grade top-quality alchemy furnace that he had found among the spoils of war from the Penglai Demonic Sect.

Then the divine realm was activated.

He can activate all five elemental domains at once, or he can activate them individually. At this moment, he has only activated the Fire Domain.

The surrounding spiritual energy surged toward his elixir.

Ye Jingcheng could not teach the sixth-order alchemy furnace and the sixth-order spiritual fire techniques to them, nor did he intend to let them take shortcuts.

Naturally, the goal is to help them improve their control over the divine realm, thereby striving to become sixth-order alchemists.

Both of them had naturally trained in the divine realm before.

However, I have never tried using the divine realm to assist in alchemy.

This novelty keeps them from slacking off in the slightest.

When the sixth-order spirit pill appeared, both of them had a clearer understanding of Ye Jingcheng's spiritual strength and control over his divine domain.

In their view, in terms of controlling the divine soul and divine domain, neither Zheng Yuan Shenjun nor Zi Yang Shenjun could compare to Ye Jingcheng.

But even with this in mind, they still felt a little hesitant to confirm it.

After all, Ye Jingcheng had only broken through to the Nascent Soul stage for a little over thirty years, while Zheng Yuan Divine Lord and Zi Yang Divine Lord had both been there for over a thousand years.

The two exchanged a glance, both inwardly marveling that Ye Jingcheng was truly a born alchemist.

They didn't believe that the Ye family had any special methods for cultivating spiritual awareness, since both the Righteous Path Sect and the Purple Sun Sect had them.

Therefore, they all believed that this was Ye Jingcheng's talent.

"Alright, there's still one day until the auction. You can still ask your questions about alchemy today." Ye Jingcheng then said, sitting down at the stone table next to him, taking out some spiritual tea, and drinking it slowly.

……

On Zisha Cloud Island, in another room of Qingxia Palace, two cultivators nervously drank spiritual tea.

On the table was a feast of spiritual food.

"Master, are we really going to rely on the Ye family?" It was a young girl who spoke.

Her appearance was not considered outstanding; in fact, in the world of cultivation where beauties abound, she appeared quite ordinary.

The old man next to him had a long white beard and a slightly weathered and aged face.

"What's wrong? You've been a rogue cultivator for four hundred years, aren't you used to it?" the old man said with a smile.

"Master, didn't you dislike being restricted the most?" the girl continued.

Soon, neither of them spoke, and they both stood up at the same time.

Then Ye Qingnian walked in.

"Fellow Daoist Du, Young Friend Chen, you've kept me waiting." Ye Qingnian said.

These two were the alchemists that Ye Qingnian had wanted to recruit into the Ye family.

Both were genuine rogue cultivators. The former was in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, yet he could refine fifth-grade top-quality spiritual pills, though his success rate was low, and he could only refine one type of fifth-grade top-quality spiritual pill.

If we really have to categorize him, he can only be considered a fifth-tier high-grade alchemist.

The latter, however, is at the late stage of the Golden Core realm, but can refine fourth-grade top-quality spiritual pills. He also once attempted to refine a fifth-grade low-quality Xiaoyuan pill. Although the final pill was of low quality, it was still enough to demonstrate his talent in alchemy.

"Patriarch Ye, I won't beat around the bush. I only have two conditions for joining the Ye family."

"First, the Ye family cannot force us, master and disciple, too much."

"Second, help her improve her alchemy limits as much as possible."
