Nine Dragons Devouring Heaven Technique

As the raw materials were refined, a massive amount of metallic essence entered Lin Yan's body, and his originally bronze skin gradually began to glow with a silvery light.

These silver threads gradually increase in number and become denser.

One-tenth, two-tenths, Lin Yan's skin gradually turned silver... Unbeknownst to him, more than a hundred years had passed.

Ultimately, the raw materials worth 100 million immortal jades were refined, and Lin Yan's skin also underwent a transformation—the Silver Skin!

Although his cultivation level is still stagnant, his body tempering power has undergone a qualitative change. His pure physical strength is now comparable to that of the Battle Spirit Realm!

"What a terrifying power!"

Lin Yan activated the Primordial Sacred Dragon Body, and his silver blood surged like countless tiny silver dragons. The outburst made Lin Yan's heart tremble.

If this punch were thrown, a powerful expert like Ding Yue, who had just entered the Dou Ling Realm, would be instantly annihilated into ashes.

"My current basic strength is enough to instantly kill someone at the first level of the Dou Ling Realm. Coupled with the defensive power of the five-star disciple leather armor, I have a good chance of defeating even a peak first-level Dou Ling Realm opponent! And this is not all of my trump cards!"

A smile appeared on Lin Yan's face.

He didn't know where his limits were, but he believed that if he encountered someone at the second level of the Spirit Realm, he could easily fight them.

"Other cultivators would need at least several thousand years of accumulation to advance from the first to the second level of the Dou Ling Realm, but I only needed a hundred years. This Primordial Sacred Dragon Body truly lives up to its reputation as a Yuan Hai Realm-level technique; it is indeed heaven-defying!"

"It's just too expensive! One hundred million immortal jades were used up just to break through one small level!"

After Lin Yan hunted down Ding Yue and the others, his total net worth was over 600 million. Later, he obtained another 10,000 star coins, which is equivalent to over 700 million.

Now, having only broken through a minor realm, he directly consumed 100 million, leaving him with over 600 million immortal jades.

Although it still looks like a lot, Lin Yan knows it's simply not enough.

According to his estimate, it would take at least 500 million to break through to the top silver level of the Primordial Sacred Dragon Body. As for breaking through to the golden level, he didn't know, but it would cost at least 1 billion immortal jade.

If he wants to break through to the seventh level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, he will need no less than 300 million Immortal Jade.

He hasn't even started cultivating the Snow Emperor's Manual yet!

He couldn't possibly use all the immortal jade to improve his cultivation, otherwise how could his master save him?

These 600 million immortal jades might not be enough for him to purchase ten portions of medicinal herbs for the Douling Realm!

Medicinal herbs from the Douling Realm are extremely precious!

Therefore, although Lin Yan looks like he has a lot of money now, he can't possibly spend it all!

"Let's figure out how to deal with Xuehuangdian first!"

Lin Yan's main purpose in coming to the sect this time was to save the Holy Dragon Venerable, and everything else had to take a backseat to this matter.

"Xuanhuang, go and purchase medicinal herbs for me at the Douling Realm. I don't need complete herbs, but I need at least one fruit. Also, ten thousand kinds of sacred herbs and one hundred kinds of imperial herbs."

Lin Yan gave Xuanhuang 500 million yuan and asked him to do something.

"It's the master!"

Emperor Xuan dared not be negligent.

On one hand, Xuanhuang went to the sect to make purchases; on the other hand, Xuanhuang also used the power of the Xuan family to make purchases.

Ten thousand kinds of sacred medicines, one hundred kinds of imperial medicines, and ten kinds of fighting spirit herbs are not so easy to collect.

Even though the Void Grand Dao Sect is the overlord of the Void Starfield, there are still too many medicinal herbs, and they cannot be duplicated.

We can only try to utilize as many channels as possible.

In the past, the Xuan family would definitely not have bothered to help with this kind of favor.

However, after the trial planet, the Xuan family tasted the benefits and realized Lin Yan's value, so the Xuan family's higher-ups were very cooperative.

The Douling family's connections are still quite formidable.

In less than a month, they had collected more than 6,000 different sacred medicines and more than 30 imperial medicines.

As for the medicinal herbs for fighting spirits, those are very difficult to obtain.

Even with the Xuan family's resources, they only managed to obtain branches of three different medicinal herbs; these were not complete Douling medicinal herbs.

Fortunately, the Void Great Dao Sect has enough spirit-fighting medicinal herbs.

Lin Yan used his five-star disciple privileges to exchange for different parts of eight kinds of Douling medicinal herbs, including roots, fruits, and leaves.

Although it was the most cost-effective method, it still cost 560 million Immortal Jade.

“Master, there are still more than sixty kinds of imperial medicines left. To collect them all, we need to prepare at least three hundred million immortal jades.”

Xuan Huang smiled bitterly.

"I have already gathered thirty kinds of Emperor-level medicinal herbs, so there are only thirty-odd kinds left."

Lin Yan said.

"More than thirty kinds, that would probably require more than 100 million immortal jades, and there's no guarantee we could even buy them."

Xuan Huang said.

They have already bought up almost all the mainstream medicinal herbs sold on the market. If they want to continue purchasing new imperial medicines and holy medicines, the prices will be much higher than before.

Each new medicinal herb you collect may be a rare one, and its price will be much higher than that of ordinary medicinal herbs.

It's possible to get 200 million Immortal Jade.

even more.

"This immortal jade is indeed a problem!"

Lin Yan never expected that all his immortal jade would be used up in the blink of an eye, and he still hadn't been able to complete the Snow Emperor Scripture.

“Cultivating alchemy techniques in the Douling Realm is very expensive. Even if you were given them, you wouldn’t be able to afford it if you didn’t have enough financial resources.”

The Extreme Cold Dragon Emperor Sword spoke.

"No wonder alchemists at the Spirit Realm are so rare in the starry sky!"

Lin Yan sighed.

"If you want to collect more medicinal herbs, perhaps you can try going to Immortal Medicine Mountain."

When Xuanhuang's father, Xuan Dingtian, learned of Lin Yan's predicament, he spoke up.

"Immortal Medicine Mountain?"

Lin Yan's heart moved.

"That is the location of the alchemy lineage of the sect. Immortal Medicine Mountain is used by the geniuses of the alchemy lineage to refine pills. It is planted with a large number of medicinal herbs. Many disciples of the alchemy lineage go to Immortal Medicine Mountain to absorb the medicinal properties and strengthen their pharmacology."

Xuan Dingtian explained.

For alchemists below the Emperor rank, cultivating alchemy is quite simple.

However, once you reach the Emperor rank or above, the threshold changes dramatically.

A massive amount of medicinal properties are needed to lay the foundation.

Using whole medicinal herbs as a base would be too expensive; it's like building a pot just to eat a meal.

Therefore, in order to facilitate the cultivation of those alchemy disciples, the sect created a sacred herb mountain.

Within Immortal Medicine Mountain, a large number of spiritual herbs are planted. You cannot pick these herbs, but you can use them to comprehend their medicinal properties.

This significantly reduces the cultivation costs for alchemists in sects.

"This Immortal Medicine Mountain is quite a nice place!"

Two sharp glints shot from Lin Yan's eyes.

In order to cultivate the Snow Emperor Scripture, he purchased thousands of kinds of medicinal herbs. Even though most of these herbs were not whole plants, but only leaves, roots and stems, the cost was still frighteningly high.

If there were a mountain of immortal medicine, he wouldn't need to consume so many immortal jades.

"I've heard of this Immortal Medicine Mountain, but the entry requirements are quite high. You need at least a three-star disciple status, and you have to pay three thousand star coins each time you enter."

Xuanhuang Dao.

Three thousand star coins may not sound like much, but it's still thirty million immortal jades. Even ordinary Heavenly Emperors would struggle with that, and this is just for one cultivation session.

"It's alright. Although three thousand star coins are expensive, it's still much easier than me collecting medicinal herbs bit by bit myself."

Lin Yan spoke.

He immediately handed his identity token to his servant, asking him to apply for the Immortal Medicine Mountain.
