After practicing Qi for a thousand years, one can finally become a god!

Chapter 16: The ridiculous difficulty of getting started, and two small spells!

Two ways.

Qi Sheng decisively chose the second option.

How could a crude warrior like him know how to make elixirs?
Not to mention asking him to look at ten random places, even if he were to read it from beginning to end, he would be at a loss and unable to tell the truth from the false.

If you want to buy it, you can only do so with confidence after having it appraised by a wizard.

But this price—

"Maximum 80 points."

eighty?

No no no!

The martial artist and Qi Sheng fought for several rounds.

Seeing that Qi Sheng refused to give in, he gritted his teeth and said, "Eighty is eighty!"

but--

"We have to agree on this in advance!"

"After you buy it, you can pass it on to anyone privately, as you wish."

"But you can't sell it in the market, and those who have received your teachings are not allowed to come here either."

"I have to promise this in front of the mage, okay?"

Qi Sheng agreed immediately.

The martial artist smiled now: "Alright! Just consider it as a small profit but a large volume of sales!"

80 merit points.

8 pills of Xiaohuandan.

Not much to say.

Say a lot less.

The point is, this business has almost no capital investment for him.

……

After being authenticated by the monk Fangshi, it was confirmed that "Tujing Yanyi" was authentic.

Qi Sheng and the martial artist settled the deal.

The mage didn't charge any fees for this.

"He read it in its entirety and must have memorized the recipe. It's already a good deal."

“No more charges.”

"Very kind."

Feng Qing said.

On the side, Wang Chao said: "In this case, you can charge a fee or not. Mr. Qi happened to meet a kind person on duty."

Regardless of whether he was charged or not, Qi Sheng was in a good mood.

Feng Qing looked at Qi Sheng carrying a thick stack of "Illustrated Classics" half a person's height on his back and shook his head: "Immortal techniques are already extremely difficult, and refining pills is even more difficult. Every immortal master cultivates immortal techniques, but not every immortal master can refine pills."

He felt that Qi Sheng spent the money in vain.

The art of martial arts is still in its infancy.

The path to immortality is still outside the door.

You still want to make pills?

wishful thinking!

Wang Chao felt even more deeply and shared the same idea.

As for Qi Sheng.

He is looking at the 'Huangyadan Recipe'.

The effect of this pill is somewhat similar to that of 'Xiao Huan Dan'.

It can help low-level monks increase their skills.

It can also help senior monks recover their skills.

But unlike the 'Small Returning Pill', it is only available to martial arts practitioners who practice the 'Twenty-Four Solar Terms'.

'Huangyadan' has a wider adaptability.

Martial arts practitioners can take it to increase and restore their skills.

When taken by immortal monks, it can increase and restore magic power.

Its value is naturally relatively higher.

The market should be quite large.

The prospects are good.

However, after Qi Sheng read through the 'Huangyadan Single Prescription'.

He felt that what Feng Qing said was right——

【Huangyadan: Not yet started (0/9000)】

……

"Nine thousand!"

"That's outrageous!"

Qi Shengren was dumbfounded.

"Twenty-Four Solar Terms Qigong".

Qi Sheng remembered that it took him about two months to get started, and the difficulty level was about 50 to 60.

"The Art of Red Pearl", the initial entry difficulty is 800 points.

As Qi Sheng's martial arts attainments continued to rise, and with the completion of the fourth solar term, the difficulty has dropped to 720 points.

The Book of the Dead remains constant at 3000 points.

And this 'Yellow Bud Pill' has a difficulty level of 9000 points?!

“I study every day.”

"Twenty-five years."

“You can only get started.”

This is just the beginning.

Kind of outrageous!

"but."

Qi Sheng guessed: "It would be extremely difficult to single out the 'Huangya Dan recipe'."

But that's because he has no foundation.

Wait until he has read "Tujing Yanyi" several times.

After reading it, I have a certain understanding of medicine, alchemy, etc.

Then we can study the 'Huangyadan single recipe', the difficulty should be reduced a lot.

"Read it through first."

"Read through first."

"We'll see later."

Qi Sheng put away the recipe and took a look at the panel——

"The Book of the Dead".

The Art of the Red Pearl.

There is now another one called 'Huangyadan' on the list of products to be introduced.

……

All of July.

Qi Sheng earned more than 200 merits in total.

He instructed Wang Chao, Ma Han, and two other top servants introduced by the two.

One-on-one, 10 merit points per session.

Qi Sheng balanced his own cultivation with the descent of spirits.

In addition, I gave 16 instructions in total and earned 160 points.

Plus the income from the descent of spirits is 114 points.

A total of 274 points.

One-third of the money was spent instantly on purchasing "Illustrated Classics and Pronunciations".

194 remaining.

Qi Sheng doesn't plan to keep it.

Regarding pills——

He just needs something that can increase his skills.

But, that kind of elixir.

Or they are expensive, such as 'Liuzhu Baixuedan'.

Can't afford it. Or the effect is average.

For example, 'Xiao Huan Dan'.

"One small pill can only help me increase my power by three months at most."

Seems like a lot.

At first glance, it seems that it can save three months of penance.

however.

God is my witness!

Ever since Qi Sheng perfected the fourth solar term, he has been practicing every day, and his power can increase by 16 points a day.

1 point of skill = 1 day of skill.

1 year of skill = 360 points of skill.

In other words.

"I can increase my power by three months by practicing for just five or six days."

"Xiao Huan Dan."

"For me."

“Too low value for money!”

Qi Sheng shook his head.

Those martial arts practitioners who are only proficient in the first solar term can only gain one day's skills after practicing for one day.

A small pill of healing elixir.

It is worth their three months of hard training.

10 merit points.

The comfort of flowers.

But it was a huge loss for Qi Sheng.

"No Xiao Huan Dan."

"With this money, I might as well buy a few small spells."

Qi Sheng turned around and bought the previous "Dengbo Technique".

I also bought a spell called 'Sparkling Magic', which allows me to create fire with my bare hands.

It is of great help in controlling the temperature when refining the elixir.

Setting fire to the mountain is also very useful.

"There is no need to overwhelm one's body with many arts."

"I have 'merit'."

"The more little spells like this, the better."

Two spells.

Spent 144 merit points.

The remaining 30 points can be exchanged for 3 small pills of Huandan at the outer gate after returning.

inside the door.

The small elixir is worth 10 merit points.

Outside.

In the market, one small pill of Huandan was sold for 12 merit points or 120 taels of "second-grade cinnabar". This was because some cultivators outside the Netherworld Sect could not afford it, so the price was raised arbitrarily.

Qi Sheng doesn't need to spend this money in vain.

one more.

He bought the Xiao Huan Dan not for cultivation, but for self-defense, to restore his strength in case of emergency.

in this way.

Qi Sheng's pockets were completely emptied.

But the harvest is not bad -

[Denbo Technique: Uninitiated (0/888)]

[Spark Technique: Uninitiated (0/999)]

【Huangyadan: Not yet started (0/9000)】

……

An hour later.

The three teams met.

"Are you done shopping?"

Ju Ying asked.

Feng Qing nodded: "We are done here."

Yu Yan also nodded.

Qi Sheng saw that she had bought a full body armor and put it on, which made her look heroic and her temperament suddenly solemn.

Gee!

This shouldn't be cheap.

Right.

In words.

Two floors in March, three floors in May.

Her ranking among the new disciples is much higher than Feng Qing and Ju Ying.

Feng Qing was able to get so much funding.

There will be no less Yu Yan.

I really have a lot of money.

"Let's go then!"

Ju Ying waved his hand and went home.

With Zhang Long, Wang Chao and Ma Han as guards, they had a safe journey.

A group of nine people returned to Eryijiangshen Peak.

Today is July 29th.

the day after tomorrow.

First grade of junior high school.

They are about to set off.

Yu Yan, Ju Ying, and Feng Qing already knew the specific mission of this trip: "Eight hundred miles west of the mountain gate, there is an immortal gate industry that produces cinnabar. We must be stationed there for at least six months."

Outer disciples have benefits as well as obligations.

Benefits include:

Take 1 Xiaohuandan pill every month.

Every month, masters give lectures and instructions.

There are also six major solar terms that are treasured places for spiritual practice.

There are also books in the library for you to browse.

These are all benefits.

However, while enjoying the benefits, we must also fulfill our obligations.

Their obligation was no longer to perform a séance every March.

But an expatriate.

Or collecting herbs.

Or hunting animals.

Or garrison.

Although there are certain rewards after completing the task.

But during the assignment process——

The benefits of having masters teach and give advice are gone.

I can’t go to the precious place for spiritual practice.

I can’t even read my collection of books.

"Expat."

“It’s hard to say whether it’s good or bad.”

"But for Yu Yan, for the outer disciples."

"Only by sending people out can those who fail to enter the outer gate reasonably avoid the spirit descent that occurs every three months."

“That’s the biggest benefit.”
