The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 108: The picture shows the dagger

Chapter 108: The picture shows the dagger
Cai Yao didn't know how to make elixirs, but she knew that an alchemist who had just come into contact with a new elixir formula and had not practiced it before would definitely not have such a success rate.

Getting familiar with the medicinal properties, adjusting the techniques...all of these take time.

She was already prepared to form a team to hunt down the first-level perfect wild beast again.

As long as Su Yan is confident in refining the Blood Essence Condensing Yuan Pill, then Su Yan will meet their requirements.

But now, Su Yan had only been in there for more than two hours, and he actually said that he had finished refining it.

Moreover, he refined two batches and successfully produced pills in both batches.

"Help me prepare the third batch of materials. Once the refining is complete, the transaction will be completed."

Su Yan threw the jade bottle into Caiyao's arms, and Caiyao subconsciously reached out to catch it.

Then he came to his senses and said, "Sir, please rest for a while. Hunting a wild beast of this level of perfection is not easy. I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while."

Her expression softened slightly and she made up an excuse.

Under the mask, Su Yan saw through it but didn't say anything, he just smiled.

Asking her to prepare the third batch of herbs and wanting to end the deal was just to disrupt their plans.

Cai Yao sent Su Yan back to his room and immediately went to find Du Er Niang.

"Boss, that man refined the elixir, and both batches of elixir did not fail."

The first thing Caiyao said when she saw Du Erniang was that she told her what had just happened.

The porcelain bottle in his hand was handed over. Du Erniang took it and looked at it. Her pupils shrank slightly and she also showed a look of shock.

"So fast? How long did it take him?"

"More than two hours, no more than three hours."

Cai Yao answered immediately, "He asked me to prepare the third batch of herbs. Once they are refined, the deal will be concluded."

The implication is that after the transaction is completed, Su Yan will leave.

Du Erniang looked thoughtful, her eyes fixed, as if she had made a decision.

"No need to prepare the third batch of herbs, I'll take care of it."

The Blood Essence Condensing Yuan Pill is just something used to test the other party's alchemy skills.

Now that we know that the other party has superb alchemy skills, there is naturally no need to prepare any more.

It was already around afternoon when Su Yan received Du Erniang's invitation.

The maid outside the door was replaced by a graceful adult woman. She stood outside the door waiting without disturbing Su Yan.

When Caiyao arrived, she stood outside the door and said, "Sir, my boss has invited you to a banquet and wants to discuss something with you."

"Okay, lead the way."

Under the mask, Su Yan's eyes moved slightly, knowing that Du Erniang's real purpose would soon come.

He followed Caiyao out of the door, but this time they did not go to the upper level of Neiku Village, but went down.

"Isn't there an underground river down there?"

Su Yan asked curiously, and Cai Yao explained: "At the bottom is an underground river, but there are also some relatively large caves. The place where the boss practices martial arts is mostly down there."

After walking for a while, they reached the lower level and found a tunnel extending into the mountain.

It is a mountain that is only one person tall. The base is a cave with traces of excavation, which continues to spread. There are only sporadic torches inserted at the entrance of the cave.

Du Erniang stood in front of the door, having changed into a tight red dress that highlighted her figure. The snow-white area on her chest contrasted with the red dress, and the red lines on it were like flowers, making her look particularly enchanting.

She smiled, walked forward, and waved her hand to let Caiyao go down.

"Please forgive me, sir, for the simple conditions in the mountain stronghold. I have prepared some food and wine inside. Please."

Du Erniang was in her early thirties, and under her pretense of intimacy, she looked like a blooming poppy.

Su Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself: "Do you have anything to ask of me?"

Du Erniang did not hide her intention in this regard, and her attitude was very obvious.

This gesture made Su Yan even more curious, so he nodded and said, "It's okay. Ordinary people don't have this opportunity to be personally entertained by Master Du."

Du Erniang giggled and went in with the books. After walking a few steps, she found a different world in the cave. It was indeed an empty mountain belly.

There is a martial arts training ground, a sandalwood burner, a soft couch, and some chairs. It is indeed a place for practicing martial arts.

But now there are a lot more wine and food on the table and chairs on the side, all of which are dishes made from wild beast meat.

There were two chairs facing each other. Du Erniang came forward to pour wine and sat on the opposite side.

"I'm from the Green Forest, so I'll be frank. I'm auctioning off this low-grade, second-level Blood Essence Condensing Yuan Dan to seek help from a second-level alchemist to refine a special elixir. Mr. Feng's ability to refine the Blood Essence Condensing Yuan Dan so easily is truly beyond my expectations."

When Su Yan heard her address, he smiled. This woman had inquired about his background.

In the identity of Feng Ruohan, he bought information about Moshishan and others from Bafangxing. Soon after, Ding Meng, Cai Peng and others completed the alliance.

Such changes could not be hidden from Bafangxing's detection.

Similarly, if someone specifically went to Bafangxing to buy his information, it would be revealed to some extent.

"Does Mr. Du think I've passed the test?"

Su Yan picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Du Erniang's eyebrows flickered slightly, and she nodded and said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Wang. I think your alchemy skills will make it easy for me to make the elixir."

"What kind of medicine?"

Su Yan raised his eyes and stared into Du Erniang's eyes.

"A second-level, mid-grade blood-exchanging pill."

Blood transfusion pill?
Su Yan frowned slightly. Although he had mastered the basic alchemy skills, he only had the techniques and not enough experience. For a while, he had never heard of such a medicine.

Du Erniang, standing opposite, could only be heard saying, "Refining this pill will take some time. If you're willing, sir, I have ten thousand taels of gold to offer you. I'll also hunt down a second-rank wild beast for you to use as the raw material for the True Meaning Pill, helping you achieve true meaning as a warrior."

Ten thousand taels of gold means one hundred thousand taels of silver notes, no more, no less. It can be said that Du Erniang really invested a lot of money.

Not to mention, there is also the Zhenyi Pill which is to some extent priceless.

Su Yan was surprised and asked, "You actually still have the recipe for the True Meaning Pill?"

"It was a coincidence, I got it from a passerby."

Zhenyi Pills have different refining methods and recipes depending on the main ingredients and proportions, but no matter which one, they are all mid-grade second-grade pills.

To inspire the spirit, attract true essence, and condense the true meaning of the beast spirit.

Su Yan's smile became subtle.

Only use a heavy nest to catch big fish.

Du Erniang invested so much money, so it is conceivable that there is something wrong with her blood-exchanging pill, very problematic.

Su Yan tapped the table lightly, as if deep in thought, and said quietly, "Master Du is so willing to invest so much money. I think there must be another reason that he hasn't explained. Will you not talk to me about it?"

Su Yan said this, but Du Erniang was not annoyed. Instead, she smiled slightly. I was just afraid you wouldn't be interested.

She stood up, her figure graceful, and said, "Sir, please follow me. The Blood Transfusion Pill still needs a main ingredient. I will take you to see what it looks like."

She walked towards a protruding rock in the training ground, pointed her hand upwards, and her true energy penetrated into it, and the hidden stone door slowly opened.

A dark tunnel leading downwards was revealed.

The wind howled in the tunnel, as if there was a beast roaring.

Du Erniang turned slightly and said to Su Yan with a smile, "Sir, please."

She lit a torch and walked in front. Su Yan was not afraid of her and walked behind her.

After they walked about a hundred steps, the beast's roar became more and more unreal. It was not caused by the wind in the tunnel.

When he reached the bottom, the water cave was damp, and a huge space appeared in front of Su Yan, which was a hundred acres wide, half of which was a cave and half was a deep pool.

Where the two met, steel pillars as thick as wrists penetrated the upper and lower rock walls, forming a cage around that side of the pool.

Wow
The water was surging, and a terrifying shadow suddenly appeared in the water. It swam rapidly in the water, suddenly rushed out, and slammed into the iron fence with a thunderous sound.

Su Yan looked closely and saw that the monster was actually a dark red wild beast.

It is more than two meters long, with a leopard head and a tiger body. Its tail is thick, like a long and flat fish tail. Its four claws are sharp, with webbed fingertips, and gills on its cheeks and armpits.

It plunged into the water, surged up, and brought up ribbon-like streams of demonic water, breaking through the water surface like a knife cut.

"Second-level low-grade wild beast, Abyssal Water Leopard."

Su Yan recognized the identity of the wild beast, and there was surprise in his tone.

"Everyone says Du Erniang is the third of the three thieves, but unexpectedly, she's just as capable as any man and actually manages to raise a second-rank, low-grade wild beast. Quite capable of her."

Surround and kill wild beasts, kill wild beasts alone, and confine wild beasts of the same level.
These things are more difficult than each other.

Du Erniang is only a warrior at the True Artistic Realm Heart Monkey Stage, yet she was able to confine such a second-level wild beast. You can imagine how sophisticated her methods are.

Her own strength is certainly not the weakest, at least she can suppress the wild beasts of the same level.

When Du Erniang heard Su Yan's exclamatory tone, her eyes lit up a bit.

She planned this way so as not to be inferior to others.

"Sir, you are so complimentary."

On the surface, she was holding Su Yan in her arms, and then took out an old animal skin pill recipe.

Su Yan took a glance and knew that this was not a new item. It was different from the copied recipe of the Blood Essence Condensing Yuan Pill.

This is an old document that has been written for decades.

He took the blood exchange pill and looked at it carefully.

For him now, every second-level pill recipe is a precious resource.

Accumulate pill formulas, deduce pill formulas, copy and modify pill formulas...

In the martial arts world where there are no patents, this is the way to quickly absorb the experience of predecessors.

"Using the blood of a superior beast as a guide, I refine the blood into a pill, inducing blood resonance, and then promoting the transformation and evolution of the beast spirit's true meaning, unleashing the power of a superior..."

Su Yan saw the effect of this pill formula. Looking at Du Erniang beside him, he said, "The idea behind this pill formula is brilliant. It's a unique approach. In addition to assisting the main practice and promoting the continuous transformation of the beast spirit's true meaning, it can also start with the pill to promote the transformation of the true meaning."

The true intentions of beast spirits have always been divided into strong and weak, this is inevitable.

The power of a beast spirit based on a first-level wild beast in battle is definitely not as strong as the power unleashed by a second-level or third-level wild beast.

Warriors are the foundation, and the true meaning of the beast spirit is the bridge connecting heaven and earth, and is the amplifier.

At the same level, the stronger the beast spirit's true meaning is, the more abilities of different auxiliary skills and weapons are superimposed, and naturally the stronger it will be.

To put it bluntly, no matter how much Yuncang Town boasts about its true artistic conception, the true artistic conception of most people's beast spirits is just based on a first-level wild beast.

Of course, Su Yan's Green Scaled Poisonous Dragon is an exception. The Green Scaled Poisonous Dragon is at least a second-tier, top-grade desolate beast. If it continues to transform, it might become a third-tier or even a fourth-tier poisonous dragon, which would fit in with the name of the Poison Dragon Golden Body Technique...

But unfortunately, Su Yan didn’t know whether there were any subsequent exercises.

Let's talk about Du Erniang in front of us. According to the martial arts world version of "the rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation"

A sect with a complete heritage, complete skills, mature auxiliary methods and schools can naturally complete the transformation of the true meaning of the beast spirit.

Coming from a grassroots background like Du Erniang, she only had a way to make elixirs and other things.

"Sir, you can really see the subtlety of this recipe."

Du Erniang's eyes flashed with joy. Su Yan hit the nail on the head and it was obvious that he understood the subtlety of the pill formula.

"I learned the Red Leopard Mountain Guarding Technique by chance, but the visualization diagram is incomplete. I can only visualize it with all my strength and cultivate the true meaning, but I am only a first-level wild beast, the Red Leopard. I want to advance further, but I have no matching auxiliary skills. I can only find another way. Please help me, sir."

Although the name of the Blood Exchange Pill sounds simple, the method of refining it is a method of melting blood, which is somewhat similar to the Blood Essence Condensation Pill and is not easy.

Su Yan suddenly sneered, "The blood-changing pills don't work overnight. They need to be taken long-term. You might not see results in three to five months. Furthermore, as your strength improves, you'll need to gradually increase the potency of the medicine. To truly complete the transformation, it'll take at least several years. Now that I know your secret, I'm afraid you won't let me get away again, right, Master Du?"

The tone suddenly turned cold, and the beasts in the cave continued to roar, and the firelight was flickering.

The smile on Du Erniang's face faded, turning into a calm one. "Of course not. Mr. Lao, you're just staying for a few days. My promise remains unchanged. When I break through the Ruyi Realm and my beast spirit transforms into the Abyssal Water Leopard, you can stay or leave as you please."

"Whatever you say, that sounds nice."

Su Yan just sneered, but Du Erniang didn't care: "If you are afraid of staying away from home, you can do whatever you want with the women in the village. If you don't like Xier and the others, you can let Caiyao take care of them yourself. If you stay, you will be the second in command in Sandiejian."

"If I say no, I'm afraid that Master Du will resort to some means."

Su Yan said quietly, "The incense in the sandalwood burner is filled with the fragrance of a magical butterfly, and the wine glass contains the magical tassel fruit. It's like a dream or a butterfly, so intoxicating that it's hard to let go... Do you want me to continue?"

Du Erniang's expression changed slightly, and her tone turned cold: "Mr. Feng is indeed very capable. He actually knows about these two precious plants. Since you know, you should know what it would feel like if you cut off these two precious plants."

In the past, there were alchemists who were attracted by her to refine blood-exchanging pills.

At that time, alchemists were only at the first level, and the blood-exchanging pills that Du Erniang needed were also at a fairly high level, probably in order to achieve the true meaning of the red-striped leopard.

As her cultivation level continued to improve, her needs also reached the second level, which led to the current situation.

The control that the alchemists had previously exercised was nothing more than wine, sex, money, anger and poison.

The word "poison" is always harmful.

But now Su Yan's calmness made her feel a little uneasy. This guy seemed to have solved the toxins of these two precious plants.

"A little bit of poison, but it's just nutrition."

Su Yan raised his eyes and stared at Du Erniang. "Actually, if it's another recipe, I can work with you in a different way. But, Du Erniang, you have to tell me how much human marrow is used in the recipe. Do you feel disgusted?"

He spoke each word clearly, realizing that the beautiful woman in front of him was not a female leopard, but a man-eating venomous snake.

The blood-exchanging pill can exchange the blood of wild beasts and induce resonance. However, it is not just the blood of wild beasts that can do it, the warrior's spinal cord is also needed as a trigger.

Only with the marrow as a guide can fusion be achieved.
