Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 418: Poison Testing, Elixir as Bait

"I won't hide it from you, fellow Daoist. In the inner storehouse of the city, there are indeed three sticks of top-grade crispy incense that my senior brother left behind...

But the quality of the spiritual incense is extremely high, each one is of the second-grade upper grade. Even if I am willing to sell it to fellow Taoist, the price is…"

Xia Zhengbai hesitated to speak, as the Suhexiang in the treasury was too expensive.

Although Fang Yi has advanced to the middle stage of foundation building, he runs a Qingzhi Building.

But the second-grade, top-grade spiritual incense is not something that an ordinary foundation-building cultivator can afford.

"Brother Xia, don't worry. If it's just a matter of spirit stones, Fang has practiced for many years and has accumulated some..."

Fang Yi was certain that with his current wealth, anything that could be solved with spirit stones was not a big deal.

The art of spiritual incense is rare in the Dayun cultivation world. There are not many incense masters who can make second-level spiritual incense, even among all the major sects.

However, the matter of refining the Yellow Phosphorus Dragon Spirit Puppet is urgent and cannot be delayed.

The Yellow Phosphorus Dragon has dragon bloodline and is an earth-attributed monster. Its body has been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations, and it is not far from the quasi-third-grade level.

Therefore, it is possible to use Suhexiang in combination with spiritual objects to refine and upgrade them using the secret method of Guifu Shengong Pavilion.

But the opportunity is fleeting. As time goes by after the Yellow Phosphorus Dragon's death, the activity of its magic body will continue to decrease.

Even if it turns into a spirit puppet, the vitality it holds will lose all activity within three years at most.

in this way.

The Suhexiang from Fengling Fairy City is the only possibility for the Yellow Phosphorus Dragon Spirit Puppet to upgrade.

Fang Yi spoke with certainty and conviction.

"Thank you, Brother Xia Dao, for this time.

Fang knew that spiritual incense of this quality was usually exchanged for spiritual objects of the same level.

Being able to exchange it for spirit stones is already extremely rare...

I will take care of the matter of the spirit stones myself and will not make it difficult for you, Brother Dao..."

"Fang Yi, you need to think carefully!"

Seeing that Fang Yi had made up his mind, Xia Zhengbai gave him some more advice considering their long-term pleasant cooperation.

The inner treasury of Fengling Fairy City contains countless rare treasures, and the most advanced spiritual objects would even tempt a Jindan Zhenren.

Although Suhexiang is not the best among them, it is definitely not something that a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building can afford to buy.

Xia Zhengbai pushed the glowing token in front of Fang Yi.

“Xia thought to himself that this favor still had some value.

If a fellow Taoist sees Suhexiang but doesn't have the money to buy it, this favor is still used...

But, if you put the token away, I will still owe you this favor..."

Xia Zhengbai is as gentle as jade, and has a gentlemanly demeanor.

In his opinion, Fang Yi had forged a low-grade foundation of Taoism. Even if he gathered enough spirit stones and used the Suhexiang to help him break through to the fifth level of foundation building, it would still be a waste of time and effort.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, it is normal to encounter bottlenecks in cultivation.

The small bottleneck in the middle stage of foundation building can be broken through as long as you are willing to spend time and work hard..."

"No need.

I have made up my mind. When it comes to a breakthrough in cultivation, I am unwilling to wait any longer..."

Fang Yi spoke firmly.

As the only descendant of Jiuqu Zhenren who has established a foundation, Xia Zhengbai’s favor is indeed precious.

However, no matter how valuable favors are, they are just borrowing the power of others to get things done. How can they be compared with improving one's own strength?

Seeing that Fang Yi had made up his mind, Xia Zhengbai shook his head slightly, raised his hand and drank the spiritual tea in the jade cup.

"In this case, Fellow Daoist Fang, please wait for a few months.

Every time the secret vault in the Immortal City is opened, the Fake Dan Zhenren is required to be in charge.

Uncle Li Chenzi has not returned yet in order to suppress the incident at Xiaoyuan Ridge..."

"Xiaoyuanling?"

Fang Yi looked puzzled and spoke casually.

"What happened in Xiaoyuan Ridge? Why did it require the intervention of Master Li Chenzi?"

Xia Zhengbai shook his head slightly, looking dissatisfied.

"The White Bone Sect lost a great cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage, Qing Huai, and then sent a fierce character, who seems to be called Yin Gu.

The Beast Taming Chen family, Changlefang, and several old bandit leaders from Wulong Mountain were all wiped out by that old thing.

Fellow Daoist Fang, whether it is Xuanyang Mountain or my Jiuqu lineage, they all have a long history.

How can we let a dark market break the rules..."

"So that's how it is, Master Li Chenzi, you're going to warn that old monster Yin Gu not to break the rules..."

Fang Yi knew clearly in his heart that the so-called rules were the tacit understanding among the major Jindan forces in the Dayun cultivation world.

There are numerous spiritual veins and places in Dayun’s world of immortal cultivation.

The major sects have gone through hundreds and thousands of years of trials and tribulations, and the sects that have been able to stand firm have already established their sphere of influence.

Many independent cultivators, despite going through untold hardships and risking their lives, spent a lot of effort.

At most, with the help of the merit of resisting the beast tide, he could occupy a second-level spiritual vein and create a foundation-building family.

Moreover, such foundation-building families have limited development prospects and are mostly used as cannon fodder in the beast tide to consume many monsters.

But even so, it is still something that many casual foundation-building cultivators desire but cannot achieve.

For example, in Xiaoyuanling, after annihilating two foundation-building forces, even though it had the support of the White Bone Sect, it was immediately "visited" by a fake Dan Zhenren.

This is also the reason why Fang Yi improved his own status in Xuanyang Mountain.

The class structure in Dayun's world of immortal cultivation had long been solidified. Over the past eight hundred years, all the spiritual creatures that had reached the Jindan stage had fallen into the hands of the Jindan forces.

Occasionally, there are cultivators who have incredible opportunities and great blessings, and quietly obtain the spiritual objects for the Jindan stage, and then endure and practice to reach the ninth level of the foundation building stage.

However, the third-level spiritual veins required to condense the golden elixir are monopolized by various major forces.

……

When Xia Zhengbai saw Fang Yi pick up the jade pot again, he waved his hand and stood up.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, I have had a great time today.

I will go ahead and open the inner treasury in the city, but I still need to inform the elders..."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xia..." Fang Yi also stood up and bowed.

He took out two bottles of pink ointment from his sleeve and stuffed them into Xia Zhengbai's arms.

"Thank you for your concern this time, Brother Dao.

These two bottles of Five Cherry Cold-Removing Ointment were meticulously crafted by me. The spiritual materials and refining techniques I used have already reached my limits...

Brother Xia Dao can appreciate it for a bit…” “Oh?”

A hint of curiosity flashed in Xia Zheng's eyes.

As the biological son of Jiuqu Zhenren, he has a noble status and can be compared with Jiadan Zhenren.

Being able to be humble and friendly with each other, Fang Yi's ability to refine spiritual medicine is the most important thing.

He took the pink jade bottle, but did not taste it himself, and let out a soft cry.

"Senior Brother Xiang Shu!"

A ray of light descended from the sky.

A burly monk with a muscular figure and wearing bronze armor appeared.

He led more than ten wind spirit guards wearing black iron masks and holding long spears as they strode out from the spiritual light.

Master Xiangshu spoke in a muffled voice.

"Junior Brother Xia, what did you call me for?"

Xia Zhengbai's magic power surged and he threw the pink jade bottle into Master Xiang Shu's arms.

"Fellow Daoist Fang has made another breakthrough in his medical skills.

Senior Brother has used a lot of cold-relieving elixirs, let’s see how effective this one is…”

"Master Fang, has there been another breakthrough in your medical skills?" Master Xiang Shu's face lit up with delight. "Let me give it a try..."

Master Xiang Shu took out a spirit-sealing box from his storage bag.

"Crack!"

When the jade box sealing the soul was opened, cold air filled the air, and a three-foot-long poisonous fang lay quietly in the box.

He casually pointed at a Fengling Guard behind him and gave the order from Master Xiangshu.

"Zhao Kuo, come and try the elixir refined by Pharmacist Fang..."

"Yes!"

Zhao Kuo took a step forward, his magic power flowing out, and the angular armor on his upper body faded away, revealing his strong muscles.

"hiss!"

With a groan of pain, the fangs flashed with a cold light and lightly pierced Zhao Kuo's muscles, causing trickles of blood to flow out.

"Click..."

The azure cold poison spread rapidly, turning frost into snow. In just a few breaths, the cold poison had spread throughout the body.

Zhao Kuo's face turned pale and he was trembling with fear, but he did not dare to resist with his magic power.

When Master Xiang Shu saw the power of the cold poison fully demonstrated, he nodded slightly.

With a point of his sturdy five fingers, a bronze light flowed, rolling up some pink ointment in the jade bottle.

"Zhang takes oral medicine..."

Zhao Kuo shuddered and subconsciously opened his mouth, letting the Wuying Cold-Removing Ointment fly into his mouth.

Half an hour later.

Zhao Kuo's complexion returned from pale to rosy, and all the lost vitality was replenished.

Master Xiangshu had a slight smile on his face and was in a good mood.

"Not bad, Zhao. You've fully demonstrated the ability of Pharmacist Fang's elixir to detoxify. I'll credit you with this achievement."

"Thank you, Master Xiangshu, for the reward!"

Zhao Kuo knelt down and bowed, suppressing the ecstasy in his heart.

This time as a medicine man, he suffered from the cold poison, but the benefits were huge.

As the core force of Fengling Fairy City, Fengling Guards are strictly selected and well-paid, and the weight of a meritorious service is not low.

Combined with the two merits he had accumulated before, it was enough for him to exchange for a bottle of high-grade Biquan Dan and break through the bottleneck of the eighth level of Qi training.

In addition, it also left an impression on Master Xiangshu, which was of great benefit to his future development.

Master Xiang Shu waved his hand nonchalantly.

Zhao Kuo quickly put on his bronze armor, retreated behind Xiang Shushang, and puffed out his chest amid the envious gazes of his colleagues.

Master Xiang Shu turned his head to look at Xia Zhengbai with a hint of joy on his face.

"Junior brother, that fang was taken from the Hanshan Black-striped Snake in the Hanling Secret Realm.

Although there is not much cold poison left and the amount is small, it is still of the lower second grade.

Young Zhao Kuo was able to get rid of the cold poison and recover his vitality so quickly.

The grade of this Five Cherry Cold-Removing Ointment is close to the peak of the second-grade mid-grade..."

"Second-level mid-grade peak?"

Xia Zhengbai looked delighted.

He pondered in his heart, wondering if Fang Yi could make another breakthrough in his cultivation, would his medical skills be able to improve further.

If I could refine the second-grade top-grade Five-Cherry Cold-Removing Ointment, I could put in a lot more effort on making the Suhexiang Ointment.

Xia Zhengbai's tone was a little gentler, and his eyes showed concern.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, if your cultivation can be further improved, can you refine a second-grade high-grade spiritual medicine..."

"This……"

Fang Yi looked hesitant.

But she felt relieved in her heart, because the Wuying Cold-Removing Ointment he gave her was specially refined.

The grade is somewhat lower than that of the second-grade top-grade spiritual medicine, but it is within reach with one more step forward.

The purpose is to make Xia Zhengbai spend more time.

Given Xia Zhengbai's identity and the fact that what he wants is not a third-level spiritual object, as long as he is willing to pay the price, no one will be able to stop him from getting the Suhexiang.

Fang Yi pondered for a moment, but shook his head slightly.

"Brother Xia, when I was refining these two bottles of Five Cherry Cold-Removing Ointment, I was immersed in a state of enlightenment, and my medical skills have improved as a result.

After this breakthrough in cultivation, can he refine the second-grade top-grade Five Cherry to Dispel Cold?
Fang can only try his best..."

“Just give it your all.

Fellow Daoist Fang is only at the fourth level of foundation building, and has just entered the middle stage of foundation building. The spiritual medicine he refines is not far from the second-grade top grade.

After breaking through the fifth level of foundation building, if one still cannot refine it.

Then Xia will wait for fellow Daoist to advance in his cultivation..."
