Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 376 Accumulating Nine Heavens Star Essence Pills

A few days after Wei Zhong refined the seventh-level elixir, Yang Bao came to visit him.

This time he did not bring Fairy Qin from the Shuiyun Palace with him, but came alone.

As soon as he saw Wei Zhong, he was extremely warm and friendly, as if he had met an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, which made Wei Zhong quite uncomfortable.

"Seventh-level elixir, this is a seventh-level elixir!
"Brother Wu Se, do you know what this means? It means that even if you don't have the resources to reach the state of He Dao, the Immortal Sect will spare no effort to push you to the state of He Dao.

"A seventh-level alchemist with a lifespan of tens of thousands of years is of great significance to a Mahayana sect."

Wei Zhong looked at Yang Bao with some surprise. He never expected that the identity of a pill master could have such an effect. He could not help but post:
"Is it possible that this seventh-level alchemist is very rare?"

As one of the best Mahayana sects in the entire spiritual world, the lack of alchemists within the Five Elements Sect shouldn't be to this extent, right?

“Of course it’s rare!
"Could it be that Brother Wu Se didn't notice the reactions of those He Daos back then?"

Wei Zhong recalled the scene at that time. Those people seemed to be too eager. They even wanted to reserve Wei Zhong's next seventh-grade pill.

Yang Bao picked up the wine glass on the table and talked freely:

"A seventh-level alchemist is a status that is on par with He Dao.

“There is not even one person in the entire Baifeng Spirit Realm.

“The Xuanxiao Sect’s Grand Master Wu Renchu ​​would like to train one, but unfortunately his family is not wealthy enough, so having a sixth-rank alchemist is good enough.

“As for the seventh level, if you zoom in, you’ll see that it’s only found in large spiritual realms.

“Most of them have joined our Mahayana Immortal Sect.

"There are only a few independent people who don't like being bound and practice alone. But even these independent people have close contacts with major forces...

"The resources earned from alchemy alone are enough to make any Hedao jealous."

As he spoke, his eyes looked at Wei Zhong with fire in them:
"Brother Wu Se, don't forget me when you become rich in the future."

Seeing the latter's reaction, Wei Zhong was quite amused and put down his teacup, saying with a smile:
"Don't worry, Brother Yang. I have this opportunity because of you. I will not be ungrateful."

What Wei Zhong said was correct. If Yang Bao had not helped him get the living sea dragon wood, he would not have had the opportunity to refine the exquisite pill in large quantities.

It was precisely because the grade of this pill was high enough that Wei Zhong was able to improve his alchemy proficiency significantly.

And these proficiency greatly contributed to Wei Zhong's success in refining the seventh-grade elixir this time.

The other party's help has a certain causal relationship with Wei Zhong's successful alchemy this time. Although it is not absolute, it cannot be ignored.

"I feel relieved with Brother Wu Se's words."

Wei Zhong also asked about his recent investigation and search matters.

Yang Bao shook his head with some regret:

"We haven't found the location of the demon dragon yet."

Wei Zhong knew the result very well, but he still listened to Yang Bao's description of the incident.

“That day, not only several Hedao seniors, but also us Lianxu disciples went to various places in Baifeng Spirit Realm to investigate.

“We investigated all kinds of spiritual phenomena one by one, and found various dragon treasures and even living dragon monsters, but we did not find any trace of the wood dragon.

“After two rounds of investigation by Senior Hedao and us Lianxu cultivators, we found nothing.

"The ancestors seemed to guess that the demon dragon had left Baifeng Spirit Realm a long time ago."

Wei Zhong stroked his chin:

"The current Baifeng Spiritual Domain is like a dragnet, how can the other party escape?"

"Who knows, maybe there is a large teleportation talisman, which is a treasure that can directly cross an area.

"The demon dragon used one in the dragon's hiding place, and it's not surprising that he used another to escape with the rare treasure."

Without Wei Zhong's guidance, the people within the Five Elements Immortal Sect seemed to have already figured out the "course" of the incident.

Wei Zhong sighed:

"What a pity!"

After talking for several hours, Yang Bao said goodbye and left.

Recalling what he had just said, the Five Elements Immortal Sect did not give up because of this investigation.

Instead, the force has intensified, and it has called on several major forces under the Immortal Sect to encircle and intercept the enemy in several spiritual realms outside the Baifeng Spiritual Realm.

Especially in the Chong'an spiritual realm in the north, a tight net has been set up to prevent the evil dragon from bringing the rare treasure back to the northern demon land.

Including the Baifeng Spirit Realm where Wei Zhong is located, the martial law will continue and will not be lifted.

In other words, Wei Zhong still needs to wait for three hundred years before he has the opportunity to go to the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

Wei Zhong was not in a hurry about this.

It would be a good idea to improve your cultivation before heading to the Immortal Sect, preferably to the middle stage of the Refined Void Realm, so that you can obtain better resources in the future.

Wei Zhong was very much looking forward to the good things that Yang Jing mentioned.

"As a great Mahayana Immortal Sect, there is no way that our actions will be shabby, right?"

He turned around and returned to the cave to concentrate on practicing.

Soon, the news that Wei Zhong had refined a seventh-grade elixir spread rapidly in Baifeng Spirit Realm.

"Seventh-level elixir, how is that possible?"

Liu Yu, the head of the Liu family, was still shocked when he heard the news.

Once upon a time, Wei Zhong tried to buy elixir recipes from his clan, but was ruthlessly forced back by the latter's harsh demands.

Not long after that, Wei Zhong grew from an ordinary alchemist to a seventh-level alchemy master.

"Perhaps he is a highly skilled sixth-level alchemist."

Clutching his thigh, Liu Yu kept comforting himself in his heart.

Just when he was struggling with his conscience, Liu Jin suddenly broke into the pavilion.

"Father, this is bad. The Five-Colored Taoist has just launched a new sixth-level spiritual elixir for cultivation."

Liu Yu answered subconsciously:
"It's just a spiritual elixir for cultivation. What's so surprising about it?"

In his opinion, the market for the sixth-grade spiritual elixir for cultivation in the entire Baifeng Spiritual Realm has been monopolized by the Shahe Sect, the Liu Family, and the Xuanxiao Sect, with the lower, middle, and upper grades.

Even if the Shahe Sect launches another one, it will only provide the cultivators of the Baifeng Spiritual Realm with one more choice and will not affect the overall situation.

"But the medicinal effect of the Linglong Miaodan is even stronger than the Xuanxiao Sect's Ziyang Juyuan Dan!"

"what?"

……

The elders of Xuanxiao Sect were also caught off guard by the appearance of Linglong Miaodan.

"Elder Zhu, how about this pill?"

Zhu Ma, the head of Dan Pavilion, looked at the half-eaten elixir in his hand and shook his head slowly:
"Reporting to the headmaster, this pill is indeed a rare and rare elixir for cultivation. The Zi Yang Ju Yuan Pill of our sect is far from comparable to it."

Qu Rongxian stroked his forehead upon hearing this:

"Where did this Void Refining Cultivator come from? How could he have such talent?"

The existence of "five colors" undoubtedly gave Xuanxiao Sect a huge impact.

As the local tyrant of Baifeng Spiritual Realm, this was the first time that he was crushed by a mere Void Refinement cultivator in terms of both magic weapons and elixirs.

"Master, does the Grand Elder have any suggestions on how to deal with this?"

Qu Rongxian shook his head slightly:
"What can I say? Can I offend the Five Colors at this time? Just let us act according to the circumstances." With a sigh:
"Now we can only hope that this master alchemist will not mass-produce pills like the Lingzhu magic weapon to snatch the market share of our Ziyang Juyuan Pill."

……

The appearance of a small amount of exquisite pills immediately attracted the attention of more cultivators to the Shahe Sect.

Among them are many Void-Refining Monks from other spiritual realms who were attracted to the Dragon Hidden Secret Land.

Just as all the cultivators were eagerly waiting for Wei Zhong to set a price and sell this kind of medicine.

However, one piece of news caused an uproar.

“I don’t want spirit stones, I just want the recipe, preferably a seventh-tier recipe?
"What's wrong with this alchemy master? He actually left the spirit stone alone..."

"Alas, you poor fellow, don't try to use your brain to measure the thinking of Master Wu Se. Does the old man need your little help?
“I’m afraid he won’t be able to use up all the spirit stones in his storage bag in his lifetime. What he needs now are some high-level resources, especially the seventh-level pill recipe.

"If you ask me, if you don't have much money in your pocket, don't even think about taking this elixir. Otherwise, you will be embarrassed when you go to Shahemen..."

While public opinion from outside continued to ferment, Wei Zhong continued to practice while waiting for other practitioners to come and offer their treasures.

"No matter how powerful the Linglong Miaodan is, it is only at the sixth level, and is only targeted at cultivators of the Void Refinement stage. It is especially attractive to cultivators of the late Void Refinement stage."

Nowadays, in Baifeng Spiritual Realm, there are all kinds of practitioners, good and bad mixed together, it can be called a small Chong'an.

Among them, the hidden goods in the hands of the monks will not be small, how could there not be things like elixirs and pill recipes?
Sure enough, within a few days after Wei Zhong released the news, several fellow refining practitioners came to visit.

According to the grade of the pill recipes provided by the other party, Wei Zhong came forward to receive them one by one.

Sure enough, I collected several pill recipes, including one of the seventh level.

It’s even a rare recipe for an elixir for spiritual practice.

"Nine Heavenly Star Essence Pill."

But after Wei Zhong finished reading all the descriptions of the recipe, he couldn't help but frowned:

"Gather the power of the nine heavenly stars, extract and fuse the Nine Sun Essence and the Nine Netherworld Grass...

"What the hell is this?"

Wei Zhong said he couldn't understand it and was deeply shocked.

Wei Zhong had never heard of the Nine Yang Essence and Nine Netherworld Grass mentioned in the pill recipe.

There is also something called gathering the power of the nine heavenly stars. Can humans collect this thing?

Even for a Hedao cultivator, it would take at least a thousand years to collect the ingredients for alchemy according to the description in the recipe.

“Even if we have those two spiritual materials, the power of the stars is one portion per thousand years. Taking into account the possibility of failure in refining the pill, a conservative estimate of 30% to 300% means that it will take at least 3,000 years to refine one pill.”

Thinking of those eager people who were in harmony with the Dao, Wei Zhong couldn't help but wonder:
"Could it be that after the elixir reaches the seventh level, it will all become this kind of abstract thing?"

Wei Zhong rubbed his eyebrows and couldn't help but feel unbelievable about his own guess.

I want to know more but I don't have the chance.

"We still have to wait until we reach the Five Elements Immortal Sect...

"Or collect other seventh-level pill recipes."

Unfortunately, several years passed and Wei Zhong still didn't collect the second copy.

However, he collected quite a few sixth-level pill recipes. Wei Zhong selected the valuable ones and kept them to enrich his own resources.

As for the reward, Wei Zhong gave different quantities of Linglong Miaodan according to the practicality of the pill recipe.

After that, even though Wei Zhong's collection of pill recipes slowed down, he had no intention of officially selling the pill.

There is no other reason, mainly because it is not easy for Wei Zhong to refine the Linglong Miaodan. The time spent is not proportional to the benefits, and his own consumption of this pill is also very intense.

Therefore, there is no possibility of mass production and sale.

This situation made the Xuanxiao Sect breathe a sigh of relief.

Just when Wei Zhong was puzzled by the mystery of the seventh-level elixir formula, the trading day for the spiritual pearl magic weapon with the Chen family finally arrived.

Chen Yuan came to visit with a woman.

Wei Zhong looked at the woman in front of him and felt that her aura was strangely familiar, but after seeing her face, he realized it was a completely unfamiliar face.

There is an indescribable weirdness in my heart.

He seemed to have noticed Wei Zhong's doubts.

The latter walked forward slowly and bowed to Wei Zhong:
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se, I haven't seen you for a long time and you don't recognize me."

Wei Zhong frowned, then relaxed a little, and asked tentatively:
"Fairy Chen Ronglan?"

The latter nodded:
"It's down!"

Wei Zhong suddenly realized something and a guess came to his mind.

Chen Yuan saw the change in Wei Zhong's expression, stepped forward, pulled his beard and said with a smile:
"Rong Lan cultivated a special secret technique and developed two bodies at the same time.

"Fortunately, the last time I was in an accident, I only damaged my body. My soul is fine thanks to Senior Ouyang's treatment..."

Wei Zhong knew in his heart that this was not the result of practicing secret techniques to obtain two bodies, but these were clearly two different bodies.

The last time in the Longzang secret place, what was destroyed was the physical body of Cheng Ruirui, a cultivator who ascended from the lower realm.

The one in front of him is the real body of Chen Ronglan, a cultivator from the upper realm.

Because of an accident in Chen Ronglan's method of summoning spirits, his soul merged with Cheng Ruirui's and turned into a special individual.

This led to this situation of one soul and two bodies.

'It's a blessing in disguise!'

Wei Zhong joked in his heart.

If his original body had not yet survived, with only a soul left, he would probably have to rely on taking over other people's bodies to practice.

The time wasted here is not a matter of one day or one night.

"I see. I would like to congratulate Fairy Chen."

Wei Zhong expressed his congratulations and casually asked about the young master Tong of Xuanxiao Sect.

"The other party's body is still intact, but his soul is damaged. He has been sent to the Five Elements Spirit Realm to recuperate by the leader of Xuanxiao Sect."

"So he left a long time ago. No wonder I haven't heard any news about him."

As a subordinate sect of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, it is not uncommon for the Xuanxiao Sect to have some connections in the Five Elements Spirit Realm.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Se seems to be very concerned about this fellow Daoist Tong?"

"No, I'm just a little curious about this." Wei Zhong looked towards Chen Yuan, "Let's get back to the point. How many spirit beads do you plan to take from me this time, Brother Chen?

"I have profound skills in refining weapons, and I have a lot of spiritual beads in stock."

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up:
"Of course, the more the better..."

After a while, Wei Zhong returned to the cave where he practiced. He probed into the Demon Abyss Palace with his spiritual sense and saw a pile of top-grade spirit stones in the corner.

I can't help but feel emotional:

"After all, the level is different now. Not long ago, I had to be stingy even for a top-grade spirit stone.

“Now, they don’t even blink when they see it.

"Rich, rich!
"I'll have to spend these spirit stones when I have the chance and transform them into my own strength..."
