Chat group: Living in a fantasy world, investing in countless realms

Zhang Taixuan calmly said, "If the sect leader is referring to the Marrow Cleansing Pill, the Purple Sun Pill, and the Rejuvenation Pill, then it must be the pills I refined."

Do you know the effects of those elixirs?

"Of course I know. Its medicinal properties are ten times stronger than those described in the prescription."

"you know?"

"I am an alchemist, how could I not understand the pills I refine myself?"

The lean old man had been scrutinizing Zhang Taixuan for a while. Suddenly, he stepped forward and said, "Zhang Taixuan, you don't have much pill energy on you, which means you haven't refined pills very often. You should know that alchemists succeed only after countless failures. How could you possibly have refined those top-grade pills?!"

"Failure?" Zhang Taixuan shook his head. "Why did we fail?"

The lean old man was speechless for a long time before finally saying, "Good lad, you're so arrogant? Since that's the case, then refine another batch of Purple Sun Pills, and I'll believe you can do it."

The sect leader nodded gently: "Zhang Taixuan, don't be afraid. Elder Wang is just verifying it. If you succeed, I will promote you to elder of the alchemy lineage. From now on, you can directly receive the sect's cultivation techniques and spiritual herbs without needing contribution points."

Zhang Taixuan's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Sect Leader."

He looked toward the lean Elder Wang.

Elder Wang hurriedly took out the spiritual materials for the Purple Sun Pill.

Zhang Taixuan took it, activated his magic power, and used it to condense a pill-refining furnace, then threw the medicinal herbs into it.

At this time, he naturally wouldn't take out the Qiankun Cauldron.

The allure of the treasure is irresistible; to present it to the public is to invite certain death.

Fortunately, he has now reached the Dao Palace Perfection stage. Although the alchemy furnace surging with magical power is not as powerful as the Qiankun Cauldron, it is perfectly capable of refining the Ziyang Pill.

Seeing that Zhang Taixuan didn't even take the alchemy furnace, Elder Wang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared!

Does this kid even know anything about alchemy?

Chapter 21 No one knows alchemy better than me! (1/7, requesting flowers and ratings)

Li Changkong reminded him, "Young friend, there's no rush in refining pills. Why don't you bring the pill furnace over first?"

“It’s alright,” Zhang Taixuan said calmly. “They’re just ordinary pills; there’s no need for a pill-refining furnace.”

With the magic power circulating, through the magic furnace, everyone could see the spiritual herbs inside turning into medicinal liquid, so they stopped trying to dissuade them.

Next, the medicinal essence was extracted from the alchemy furnace and then refined into pills by magical fire.

He dispersed his magical power, and ten pills, still warm from the heat, appeared in his hand.

"Sect Leader, Elders, Deacons, please look!"

The three men looked shocked. Each of them picked up a pill, examined it carefully, and then swallowed it.

moment.

"Good!" The sect leader's eyes gleamed. "This pill is no different from the previous ones. I believe you refined those pills."

Elder Wang also sighed, "The younger generation surpasses the older generation. Young friend's alchemy skills far exceed those of this old man. Sect Leader, I propose that young friend take charge of the alchemy lineage. It's too wasteful of us old folks to keep doing alchemy."

Using the same ingredients, others can refine more pills than you, and the medicinal effects are ten times stronger.

Didn't they waste a huge amount of spiritual herbs when they were refining elixirs?

Thinking about this, he felt a pang of heartache.

The sect leader smiled and said, "Very well. Zhang Taixuan, are you willing to take on this important task?"

"Sect Leader, how many pills do I refine in a year?" Zhang Taixuan asked.

The sect leader looked at Elder Wang and asked, "Elder Wang, our sect opens its gates once every ten years. How much does that cost?"

Elder Wang pondered, "Our sect recruits one hundred people every ten years, so we don't need many pills. For low-grade pills like the Hundred Herbs Golden Pill, five or six hundred a year is enough. For high-grade pills, one thousand a year is sufficient. So, we need to refine twelve thousand pills a year."

"Actually, young friend, there's absolutely no need to worry about not being able to complete the task. If you can't finish refining them, aren't there still us old guys? When the time comes, we can simply exchange the less-than-perfect pills we refine for disciples with lower aptitude!"

The reason why there is a greater demand for high-level pills is, of course, because Shenxu Cave Heaven is one of the six major cave heavens of Yan Kingdom. It has been established for more than a thousand years, and there are more high-level cultivators than new disciples in the sect.

"More than ten thousand a year?" Zhang Taixuan chuckled inwardly. With the Qiankun Cauldron, I could refine them all for you in half a day. "It wouldn't be a problem if I put in a little effort."

The sect leader was overjoyed: "Good, then this matter will be entrusted to you."

Looking at Elder Wang, he said, "Elder Wang, you have reached the Dao Palace Perfection for many years. It's time for you to focus on your cultivation. Here's what we'll do: Elder Zhang's refined Purple Sun Pills will be yours for now. I think seventy-odd Purple Sun Pills should be enough for you to enter the Four Extremes Realm."

"Thank you very much, Sect Leader." Elder Wang was overjoyed.

He then cupped his hands to Zhang Taixuan and said, "Thank you very much, Elder Zhang. Otherwise, when would I have been able to break through?"

Seeing Elder Wang's expression, Zhang Taixuan suddenly realized—no wonder he had taken over the alchemy lineage so quickly; it turned out Elder Wang had had enough of staying there.

For cultivators, strength is the most important thing.

Rights are merely an adjunct to power.

"You're welcome, elder!"

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the sect leader left with Elder Wang and Deacon Li.

Of course, before leaving, the sect leader had already promoted Zhang Taixuan's authority.

Now, the entire sect's scripture library is open to him.

"It's all open up at once, there's no challenge anymore."

Despite Versailles's words, Zhang Taixuan still exchanged all the cultivation techniques with satisfaction.

Back at his lodgings, he saw a man standing there in the distance; it was none other than Steward Li.

"Elder Zhang is back!" Deacon Li said with a smile. "This is your identity token. With this token, you can access the sect's spiritual herbs at any time."

In addition, there are many other benefits to being promoted to elder.

It would allow the sect to build a new cave dwelling and recruit a few disciples to serve them...

In short, he suddenly entered the privileged class.

After explaining everything, Deacon Li left.

"Let's refine a pill furnace first. The Qiankun Cauldron is good, but it's not suitable to show off. An ordinary pill furnace is better." Zhang Taixuan composed himself and returned to his quiet room.

Chat group.

Huang Rong: "Shaolin is too poor. I only gained 600 points after suppressing Shaolin."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Shaolin martial arts are that valuable?"

Yue Buqun: "Nine Yin only costs five points. If it costs six hundred points, wouldn't Shaolin have more than a hundred level one Nine Yin martial arts?"

Having been in the chat group for several days, Yue Buqun naturally came to know the true value of the Nine Yin Manual.

Huang Rong: "You've misunderstood. All of Shaolin's martial arts skills combined only cost a little over a hundred points; the rest are sold for gold and silver points."

Yue Buqun: "[Envious] Shaolin is so rich! Tens of thousands of taels of gold!"

Uncle Lin: "That monk is really rich."

Huang Rong: "This is nothing. Most of the money in Shaolin is in copper coins and bronze Buddha statues, but unfortunately, the chat group doesn't accept them."

Zhang Taixuan: "You won't buy it? Then sell it to me!"

Huang Rong: "Huh, Brother Zhang is online?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Hmm. I've been cultivating for a while now, and I just became an elder again, so I finally have some free time."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Elder?! [Scary] How long have you been cultivating?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Who told me to be so skilled in alchemy? Now, please call me Elder Zhang!"

Su Xiaoxiao: "Greetings, Elder Zhang!"

Ying Zheng: "Greetings, Elder Zhang!"

Yue Buqun: +1

Lin Fengjiao: "+1"

Huang Rong: +1

Huang Rong: "[Red Envelope] If Brother Zhang needs it, then there's no need to talk about money. Everything I have now was given to me by Brother Zhang. By the way, what does Brother Zhang need all this junk for?"

Zhang Taixuan: "I plan to refine a pill furnace. After all, the Qiankun Cauldron is too conspicuous."

Su Xiaoxiao: "That's true. The fantasy world is too cruel. As soon as the Qiankun Cauldron appears, there will probably be another bloodbath."

Zhang Taixuan: "Yeah. By the way, has anything major happened in the group lately?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "[Speechless] Isn't this a good thing? Do I have to encounter transmigrators, God Spaces, and system holders every day?"

Zhang Taixuan: "That's true. We couldn't beat them even if we encountered them; our group is full of weaklings right now!"

Lin Fengjiao: "Are we weak?"

Huang Rong: "I feel pretty amazing!"

Ying Zheng: "I also think my strength is not bad."

Yue Buqun: "I am invincible."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Invincible under heaven? You can't say that."

Zhang Taixuan: "Haha... Wang Chongyang, the invincible king!"
