Immortals Step into Heaven

A talented person can successfully refine the elixir after opening the furnace for more than ten times, while an untalented person may not succeed even if he tries a hundred times. If he fails, those are spirit stones, and ordinary people don’t have so many spirit stones to spend.

Zheng Yuan also knew that his talent was not very high. Whether he could become an alchemist was still uncertain.

The only remaining method was to go out and do the mission! With Uncle Xiao in seclusion, Zheng Yuan also wanted to see what missions were available in the Mission Hall. The next day, Zheng Yuan left a letter in the hall of Danhuo Pavilion and went to the Mission Hall.

Li Zhe was a little surprised to see Zheng Yuan coming and said, "Junior Brother Zheng, aren't you in Danhuo Pavilion? Why are you in the Mission Hall?"

Senior Brother Li, Senior Uncle Xiao has to go into seclusion for some business, and no one knows how long it will take. Junior Brother thought that he still has a mission to complete once a year, and thought that now that he has some free time, he can take a look at the missions in the Mission Hall first.

Junior Brother Zheng now has many tasks in the Mission Hall, including a task of serving as a law enforcement disciple for two months in Yunshan Market for thirty contribution points. Yunshan Market is a trading market established by our four major sects in the Monster Mountain Range. Yunshan Market is a must-pass place on the way to the Monster Mountain Range.

They provide elixirs, magical instruments, and other items for cultivators on their adventures in the Monster Mountain Range. Yunshan Market has four law enforcement teams. Master Li, a member of the sect who is in the early stages of foundation building, is stationed at Yunshan Market and is one of the four law enforcement team leaders. He also serves as a law enforcement disciple on Master Li's team.

There's also the Liu family investigation into the murder of their patriarch. The Liu family, a subsidiary of the Danqing Sect, recently reported their patriarch's murder to the sect, hoping the sect could help investigate. This investigation grants 100 contribution points for a one-year period.

Another mission is to go to the Monster Mountain Range and kill three first-level initial stage monsters, the one-horned water crocodiles, and retrieve their three horns. This mission will earn you 50 contribution points. This mission will last for three months.

"Junior Brother Zheng, which mission do you want to choose?" Li Zhe asked with a smile.

Brother Li, I'm going to take on the task of picking up the horn of the unicorn crocodile. Please help me register it.

Junior Brother Zheng, this is your mission token. You need to show the mission token when leaving the sect. When you hand in the mission, just hand in the mission token and the items needed to complete the mission to the Mission Hall.

Thank you, Senior Brother Li, for letting me know. I will leave now. After bidding farewell to Senior Brother Li, Zheng Yuan arrived at the mountain gate. There were two law enforcement disciples guarding the gate. After Zheng Yuan showed his mission token, they let him pass.

After leaving the mountain gate, Zheng Yuan was filled with emotion. It had been over a year since he came to Danqing Sect. Recovering his thoughts, he first found a dense forest, changed out of his Danqing Sect disciple's clothes, put on ordinary clothes, and cast a wind control spell on himself.

Zheng Yuan hurried towards Yunshan Market. He had also learned the route to Yunshan Market and the Monster Mountain Range from Senior Brother Li. Yunshan Market was hundreds of miles away from Danqing Sect, and it took Zheng Yuan several days to reach Yunshan Market.

When Zheng Yuan was entering the market town, he was stopped by the law enforcer at the gate of the market town and asked for an entrance fee of one spirit stone. Only after paying the spirit stone was he allowed to enter the market town.

There were many people coming and going in the market town, and many people setting up stalls, which made Zheng Yuan want to take a look. Most of the stalls sold some low-level talisman paper and monster materials.

Zheng Yuan walked to the stall of a middle-aged man who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and looked at the corpse of a low-level tiger demon placed on the stall.

"Fellow Daoist, how much do you want to sell this tiger monster for?" Zheng Yuan said calmly.

Daoist friend, this tiger demon corpse is worth fifty low-grade spirit stones. Do you think it’s okay? The middle-aged man said enthusiastically.

Fifty low-grade spirit stones for a tiger demon corpse. Zheng was also shocked. These fifty low-grade spirit stones were his salary for half a year in Danqing Sect. This demon beast corpse was too valuable!

Zheng Yuan was silent for a moment and said, "Fellow Daoist, do you have the blood essence of this tiger monster?"

Upon hearing Zheng Yuan's words, the middle-aged man pulled out a jade bottle of blood essence from his storage bag. He smiled and said, "This is a bottle of tiger demon blood essence. How about ten low-grade spirit stones for it, fellow Daoist?"

Zheng Yuan took the jade bottle, opened it, and sniffed it. A bloody aura emanated from it. It was indeed the essence of a demon beast, and he was delighted.

He said to the middle-aged man calmly, how much monster blood do you have left?

The middle-aged man thought to himself, "A wealthy man has arrived!" He immediately smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, I still have six bottles of monster blood. Is that enough for you?" He pulled out six bottles of monster blood from his storage bag and handed them to Zheng Yuan.

After Zheng Yuan checked to make sure everything was alright, he took out seventy low-grade spirit stones from his storage bag and gave them to the middle-aged man, then prepared to leave.

The middle-aged man immediately called out to Zheng Yuan, "Fellow Daoist, I am sealing the sea."

I have several friends who still have a lot of monster blood. I wonder if you still need it.

Zheng Yuan was ecstatic. This was truly an opportunity that had come to him! He pondered for a moment.

My name is Zheng Yuan. Fellow Daoist Feng, I wonder how much monster blood your friend has in his hands. Zheng Yuan said calmly.

Fellow Daoist Zheng, my friend has at least ten bottles of monster blood. If you want them, how about I wait for you here tomorrow?

Fellow Daoist Feng, can you give me a discount for such a large quantity?

Fellow Daoist Zheng, how about I give you one of the bottles no matter how many there are?

Fellow Daoist Feng, let’s make a deal. I’ll come here to find you tomorrow and then turn around and leave.

Zheng Yuan walked into a shop called Tianbao Pavilion. There were two women there. One was wearing a maid's clothes and had a pretty face. Zheng Yuan looked at the other very beautiful woman wearing the clothes of a shopkeeper and said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, does your shop have any elixirs that can improve the cultivation level of the late stage of Qi training?"

Sir, my name is Shangguan Zi. Our store has two kinds of elixirs that can help improve the late stage of Qi Refining. One is Qingmu Dan and the other is Huangyuan Dan. I don’t know which one you need, said a woman with a sweet voice.

"Fellow Daoist Shangguan, my name is Zheng Yuan. I wonder what the difference is between these two kinds of elixirs? How much do they cost?" Zheng Yuan said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Zheng, there's no difference in the efficacy of the two elixirs. It's just that the Qingmu Pill is more effective for those practicing wood-attributed techniques, while the Huangyuan Pill has the same effect for those practicing earth-attributed techniques. Both elixirs are priced the same, at fifty low-grade spirit stones per bottle," Shangguan Zi said with a smile.

Fellow Daoist Shangguan, please give me a bottle of Huangyuandan.

Fellow Daoist Shangguan, do you have any magical tools to sell?

"Fellow Daoist Zheng, please wait a moment." Shangguan Zi soon emerged with several jade boxes. "Look, Fellow Daoist Zheng! This is the Flame Sword, a top-grade magical flying sword with fire attributes. Forged from fire-attributed ore, it boasts a sturdy blade. When used against an enemy, a layer of flame encircles it, piercing their flesh with a burning sensation. Its power is immense. The price is five hundred low-grade spirit stones."

This jade box contains three top-grade short swords, a set of magical weapons made of ice crystal stone. The sword bodies of these magical weapons are transparent and have the effect of breaking armor, so they can be used as hidden weapons. The price is six hundred low-grade spirit stones.

There is also this rhinoceros shield, a top-grade magic weapon. This shield is made of Suzuki and rhinoceros skin. It has strong defense and it is difficult for mid-grade magic weapons to hurt it at all. It costs five hundred low-grade spirit stones.

Is that magical instrument that Fellow Daoist Zheng is interested in? Shangguan Zi asked with a smile.
