Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

After handing the guest elder token to Xiao Yang, Xuan Kongzi also explained the duties and benefits of being a guest elder to Xiao Yang.

If Danta encounters serious danger, the guest elders will need to help.

As for the benefits, they can receive a certain quota of medicinal herbs every year.

In addition, you can also exchange pills for medicinal herbs at the Pill Tower.

Of course, there are certain limits.

Some of the most precious medicinal herbs are so rare that even the guest elders cannot exchange them.

Even some elders of the Pill Tower couldn't exchange for it.

Xiao Yang understood this as well.

In addition to these, he can also ask Danta to help him collect the medicinal herbs he wants.

Of course, there will be a price to pay.

There were also other benefits, which Xuan Kongzi explained one by one.

Xiao Yang was very satisfied with these benefits.

He could also have Danta act as an intermediary to help people refine medicine.

After all, there are still a lot of people and forces coming to the Dan Tower to seek medicine.

Additionally, you can participate in trade fairs within the Danta.

Saint Dan City hosts an alchemist trade fair every year.

This was supported by Danta.

However, ordinary alchemist trade fairs are attended by alchemists and forces outside of the Pill Tower.

The event was held at the junction of the outer and inner domains.

Even so, the medicinal materials needed for Grade 8 pills were readily available at this trade fair.

You can even find some Rank 8 pills.

As for items below the eighth rank, there are even more.

The events held within the Danta itself are much better than this.

Although it is not large in scale, it is of a higher standard.

The number of members within the Danta is quite large.

There are many elders and deacons alone.

You should know that even the stewards are basically seventh-grade alchemists!

Many of the elders of the Pill Tower are eighth-grade alchemists.

So, you can imagine how many good things will be at such a trade fair.

The trade fair within the Danta is usually held once every five years.

According to Xuan Kongzi, this trade fair will be held in three months.

Xiao Yang plans to attend.

He plans to participate not only in internal trading sessions but also in regular trading sessions.

The regular trade fair, open to outsiders, will be held in two months.

He planned to use this time to improve his proficiency in fifth-grade and sixth-grade pills to an unparalleled level.

Just now, during the refining process, his proficiency in both the fifth and sixth ranks improved slightly.

His proficiency in fifth-grade and sixth-grade pills is just a little short of reaching the pinnacle.

Not only that, but even his proficiency in seventh-grade pills has improved slightly.

After saying goodbye to Xuan Kongzi, Xiao Yang returned to his previous residence.

Although he could now move to the guest elder's residence, he was too lazy to move again.

Anyway, this place is not bad.

He strolled around Saint Pill City with Little Fairy Doctor and the other girls, and after a good cultivation session with Little Fairy Doctor and Medusa in the evening, he prepared to begin his seclusion.

Xiao Yang immediately began setting up the task.

[Task: Raise your proficiency in Grade 5 pills to the highest level. Rewards: +1 Advanced Alchemy Talent, 3,000 herb fields, doubled time flow in the herb field space, one bottle of each Grade 5 pill, +1 Pill Comprehension.]

[Task: Raise your proficiency in Grade 6 pills to the highest level. Rewards: Advanced Alchemy Talent +1, Myriad Herb Fields, Doubled Time Flow in the Herb Field Space, One bottle of each Grade 6 pill, +1 Pill Comprehension.]

After setting up the task, Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately began refining medicine.

You can indeed buy many medicinal herbs in Saint Dan City.

Even the ingredients for Huangji Dan and Pozong Dan can be easily purchased.

Buying ten at once is no problem.

Needless to say, the Heavenly Spirit Pill is even more so.

Very few alchemists know how to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill.

Therefore, the medicinal herbs are neither very expensive nor very rare.

Without hesitation, Xiao Yang began refining grade 5 and grade 6 pills in large quantities.

Although it seems that he needs to refine one hundred grade five or six pills to gain one point of grade five or six pill proficiency.

However, Xiao Yang estimated that his proficiency would likely increase automatically after he finished refining it.

He created proficiency tasks primarily for the reward.

These tasks offer substantial rewards.

As time went by, just as Xiao Yang had expected, before he even claimed the proficiency reward, a system notification sounded in his mind.

[Task: Raise your proficiency in Grade 5 pills to the highest level. Rewards: Advanced Alchemy Talent +1, 3,000 herb fields, doubled time flow in the herb field space, one bottle of each Grade 5 pill, +1 pill comprehension. Completed. Claim rewards?]

[Task: Raise your proficiency in Grade 6 pills to the highest level. Rewards: Advanced Alchemy Talent +1, Myriad Herb Garden, Doubled Time Flow in the Herb Garden Space, One bottle of each Grade 6 pill, +1 Pill Comprehension. Completed. Claim rewards?]

Just then, Xiao Yang discovered something.

The original proficiency-building tasks have been changed!

[Task: Refine one hundred Grade 6 pills. Reward: Ten Tier 8 magic cores, one thousand random high-grade medicinal herbs. Completed. Claim reward?]

The original reward for the mission was a random 1,000 high-level medicinal herbs and a little bit of proficiency in sixth-grade pills.

However, the proficiency level for sixth-grade pills has now been increased to ten eighth-grade magic cores.

From the system's perspective, the two are basically the same.

The reward of one hundred Rank 6 pills is definitely worth farming; you can decide whether to get magic cores or medicinal herbs.

Basically, it's a little proficiency plus ten eighth-tier magic cores, or a thousand random high-tier medicinal herbs, or one ninth-tier magic core.

Xiao Yang now has a monster ranch space and no shortage of magic cores, so he mainly chooses medicinal herbs as rewards.

In other words, once the proficiency level is maxed out, the bonus is doubled.

After Xiao Yang's low-grade pills reached a state of extraordinary skill, he stopped refining those low-grade pills and therefore was unaware of this matter.

The main problem is the lack of a proficiency reward system.

Once he reaches a level of mastery, he might simply create a task for refining pills at will, instead of creating a fixed proficiency reward task like this.

For example, the reward for refining a Purple Heart Breakthrough Pill might be a fixed main ingredient.

Therefore, Xiao Yang was unable to visually perceive the changes in the rewards.

But I know now.

Tasks can be created uniformly in the future.

He did not claim the reward immediately.

He still has one more thing to do.

That's extracting the essence of poison!

Xiao Yang felt that it was a waste that he couldn't cultivate during the time he was absorbing and comprehending the insights.

Or perhaps it's because the amount of energy absorbed from heaven and earth through one's own independent practice is insufficient.

So he decided to concoct some venom to use for bathing!

It just so happens that there is a type of venom in the All-Poisons Compendium that I obtained earlier.

Xiao Yang planned to refine a larger quantity at once.

Without hesitation, he immediately set up a task to begin refining that sixth-grade venom.

Refining this sixth-grade venom is child's play.

He's only a three-star Dou Zong now, but if he has enough sixth-grade venom, it can still have a significant effect.

Chapter 370 Emperor-Rank Magic Cores and Medicinal Herbs!

Soon, Xiao Yang finished refining the venom he needed.

Although he had better seventh-grade or even eighth-grade poisons as his cultivation materials.

However, most of those were elixirs.

This kind of venom is the most suitable for Xiao Yang to use when absorbing insights.

Anyway, it's a waste to do nothing while absorbing insights.

Instead of that, why not try some venom?

After refining a large amount of venom and using up all the necessary medicinal materials, Xiao Yang immediately created three missions.

[Task: Raise your cultivation level to four-star Dou Zong. Rewards: Constitution +1, Root Bone +1, Random High-Grade Herbs +30.]

[Task: Raise your cultivation level to Five-Star Dou Zong. Rewards: Constitution +1, Root Bone +1, Random High-Grade Herbs +30.]

[Task: Raise your cultivation level to Six-Star Dou Zong. Rewards: Constitution +1, Root Bone +1, Random High-Grade Herbs +30.]
