In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 204 If you want to join the Demonic Sect, do you have that stone?

The biggest difference between righteous and demonic pills lies not in their medicinal properties, but in their raw materials.

The former leans towards spiritual plant materials, while the latter leans towards flesh and blood materials.

Although both types of pills can be approved and sold normally under the current relatively lenient review mechanism, people still tend to prefer buying righteous pills.

For the sake of the reputation of the Ten Greats, Master Qiu naturally did not want Su Yuan to openly sell demonic pills.

Su Yuan didn't care about Master Qiu's so-called principles.

If you're going to sell it secretly, then so be it.

Anyway, he has no worries about sales. Having inherited the various sales channels of the Nine Dragons Hall, the Yuan Sect knows all too well who in Taihua City urgently needs cheap magic pills.

Too many people in Taihua City cannot afford righteous pills, so they will choose to refine stinking and disgusting demonic pills with their own flesh and blood.

Because the latter costs at least one-third less than the former when the efficacy is similar, the selling price is naturally much lower.

So, how does the Yuan Sect differ from the former Nine Dragons Hall?
Will the Yuan Church follow the same path as the latter and be wiped out by some dragon-slaying hero?
But if one were to sell medicine secretly and legally, could they really compete with those money-grubbing, life-risking seniors in the demonic path?

Su Yuan naturally took appropriate measures from the very beginning.

The first step to getting the "Three-Transformation Golden Core" version of the Demonic Path game approved is ensuring it can withstand scrutiny.

The second step is to control the cost of raw materials for magical pills in order to meet market expectations for low-priced medicines.

These two steps sound simple, and Su Yuan has even completed them.

But why didn't Kowloon Hall achieve this?

The reason is simple: Kowloon Hall is a fake cult! It's nothing more than a black factory!

To be honest, the original Nine Dragons Pill could not be considered a demonic pill to some extent.

It is illegal for two reasons. First, the formula for the Nine Dragons Pill is incomplete and has huge side effects, but the Nine Dragons Hall forces it to be used for profit.

Secondly, the raw materials for the Nine Dragons Elixir formula are spiritual plant-based medicinal materials, making it impossible to reduce costs through raw material selection.

Therefore, Kowloon Hall can only reduce production line costs, labor costs, factory costs, hygiene costs, and other aspects where the audit mechanism is very strict.

It would be a miracle if this were legal.

But Su Yuan's demonic version of the third-stage golden pill is different. Just by virtue of its raw material cost advantage, it can crush a whole number of illegal pill refining businesses.

Furthermore, because the Demonic Dao version of the Three-Turn Golden Elixir has better efficacy, fewer side effects, and is even a legally approved drug, the Yuan Sect's secret Demonic Dao elixir business will only be better than the original Nine Dragons Hall's.

Therefore, not just anyone can become a member of the Demonic Cult.

Without core technology and without spreading material costs across cheaper blood and flesh materials, how can you compete with a true demonic cult?
You don't have any pebbles!
Time flies, and two more days have passed.

The new instructor for the past two days is a fairy surnamed Chu from the Taixu Illusion Sect, and the Taixu Illusion Sect's teaching content...

It can only be said that it is a mixture of reality and illusion, truth and falsehood, mysterious and profound, which can only be understood intuitively and cannot be explained in words.

Of the ten preparatory classes, only a few geniuses personally discovered by Fairy Chu were able to learn the Illusionary Path; the rest would basically learn nothing at all.

Therefore, during this period, Su Yuan and the followers with free time were busy with the construction of the Yuanjiao Dantang.

To be honest, the initial costs of an alchemy factory are really high, not to mention those high-end fully automatic alchemy furnaces.

The price of even a standard alchemy furnace that meets the specifications, along with the underground fire and the explosion-proof furnace workshop, is quite high.

To build this factory that could accommodate thirty alchemists working together, Su Yuanna poured all the money he had just earned back from Yuanshi Media into it.

However, Su Yuan didn't feel particularly distressed about it, because the path to making a fortune was clearly laid out before him.

Within just two days, by renting existing equipment such as bankrupt factories, second-hand alchemy furnaces, and spiritual vein pipelines, the Yuanjiao Alchemy Hall was officially established in an industrial park near Feiyun Community in the north of Taihua City!
At the same time, various business certificates, sales certificates, and even the Danfang qualification certificate were all approved.

Because the factory was quite spacious, Su Yuan also built a weapon-refining workshop for the future production of magical artifacts.

However, before officially opening for business, Yuanjiao Dantang still had one thing to do.

We're hiring! We're looking for alchemists!
On the third morning of the Taixu Illusion Sect's training course, the Yuan Sect's Pill Hall officially began recruiting. "Sect Leader, I've heard that alchemists have a high social status. Can we really recruit enough alchemists in such a short time?"

Looking at the empty factory, Qi Hanyue couldn't help but ask a question.

Su Yuan simply smiled and said:

"What good is a high social status? There are always those alchemists who can only refine rigid, low-level pills and are laid off in the constant infighting and competition."

"As for how to contact those alchemists, you don't need to worry about it. I have their contact information."

Qi Hanyue was slightly taken aback. Just as she was about to ask a question, a middle-aged man with a stubble beard cautiously walked into the factory.

The middle-aged man wore gold-rimmed glasses, looked very cultured, and his cultivation level was at least at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Although he was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator at the lowest level without spiritual roots, he was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Normally, one should earn hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan per month.

However, the middle-aged man's tired expression and slightly outdated suit indicated that his financial situation was not good.

"Someone actually came... and it was even a Foundation Establishment stage alchemist?!"

Qi Hanyue's beautiful eyes widened slightly, somewhat incredulous.

Su Yuan, however, calmly invited the middle-aged man to take a seat:
"Master Ji Youzhi, a former second-level alchemist of the Baiyun Alchemy Sect, right?"

Master Ji was slightly startled and was about to speak, but Su Yuan interrupted him directly.

"Since you're here, let's get straight to work-related issues."

"Don't ask about trivial things like how I got your contact information, how I sent you emails, or how I know your name."

Master Ji: "..."

Is this really a trivial matter?
But in the end, he didn't ask anything, he just nodded.

"Tell me about your income from your last job."

Su Yuan rested his chin on his hands and spoke calmly:
"Please note that I am not referring to your previous legitimate job."

Master Ji was startled.

Su Yuan's implication was so obvious that he could easily understand that the other party knew about his past experiences working in a black factory, which he found unbearable.

He suppressed the shame of having his private photos exposed and said with his head down:
"My monthly salary at my last job was 500,000."

"Five million?"

Su Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly:
"If I remember correctly, after a cultivator breaks through to the Foundation Establishment stage, the spiritual energy in a normal environment is no longer sufficient to meet the daily needs of a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"Therefore, every Foundation Establishment cultivator needs to purchase spirit stones or build a spirit gathering array at home to replenish their energy."

"The daily cultivation costs alone far exceed those of a Qi Refining stage cultivator. Add to that mortgage payments, flying sword loans, flying boat loans, living expenses, and so on, is 500,000 really enough?"

Master Ji shook his head with a bitter expression.

But then, he suddenly realized something.

The young boss in front of me is belittling the 500,000 yuan monthly salary. Does that mean he can offer a higher salary?

If that's the case, he'd be willing to break the bottom line of a righteous alchemist and refine demon pills!

Then, the next second, he heard the boy in front of him say solemnly:

"Can you accept a base salary of 300,000?"

Master Ji: "???"

　P.S.: I accompanied my grandma to the hospital for a check-up today. I was busy all day and didn't get home until 11 pm. That's all for today. I'm really sorry.
