Immortal Path Space

Chapter 129: New Strain of Elixir

On this day, Wang Hong and Zhang Chunfeng sat facing each other in the courtyard, each with a cup of Spirit Tea in front of them.

The plot of Spirit Tea in Wang Hong's Space was finally ready for a small harvest. This was the Spirit Tea he refined anew.

Before mastering the Refinement technique, he used to pluck a few tender leaves from the Spirit Tea plant and steep them directly in Spirit Spring.

Refining Spirit Tea was, in itself, an art. To learn this, Wang Hong spent some time in the Scripture Tower, studying several Jade Scrolls on Refining Spirit Tea. Only then did he master the technique.

The Spirit Tea, refined through this process, had a much stronger taste and efficacy compared to before.

This led to the fact that, apart from Zhang Chunfeng, no one else in the Qingxu Sect had tasted his Spirit Tea.

For something merely pleasant in taste, he wouldn't mind sharing. However, if it was related to cultivation and had extraordinary effects, he wouldn't easily reveal it.

For instance, the items he traded with the unkempt old man were exceptionally delicious but had rather ordinary effects. At least, for a Golden Core cultivator, they weren't very effective. 𝐟r𝗲𝚎𝚠e𝐛no𝘃𝗲𝐥.c𝗼m

"Have you chosen your Body Refining Technique?" Wang Hong asked casually after taking a sip of tea.

"Not yet," Zhang Chunfeng replied.

When he came out of the secret realm, he had over two hundred thousand contribution points in total. Participating in the Grand Competition earned him two Foundation Establishment Pills.

Before reaching Foundation Building, he exchanged one Foundation Establishment Pill, leaving him with just over a hundred thousand contribution points.

He spent eighty thousand points on a primary Cultivation Technique at the Scripture Tower, saving the rest for acquiring a Body Refining Technique.

After much contemplation at the Scripture Tower, he couldn't afford the better Cultivation Techniques, so he decided to accumulate more contribution points and then choose a superior Body Refining Technique.

"If you're short on contribution points, I can lend you some. Also, check the Scripture Tower for Disguise Techniques or similar Cultivation Techniques. If available, exchange and practice them," Wang Hong suggested.

"Alright, I'll go look tomorrow. I've set my eyes on a Body Refining Technique; I just need a bit over ten thousand contribution points more."

"Transfer twenty thousand contribution points from me for now. Also, how are the people left in Azure Void City doing in terms of cultivation levels?"

"He Yuan, without getting a Foundation Establishment Pill when he returned to his family, is still at the Qi Cultivation Grand Completion. Next are the Ma Brothers, who, with a pile of Elixirs, have reached the Ninth Layer of Qi Cultivation."

"How has He Yuan been performing lately?"

Wang Hong contemplated. If He Yuan was useful, he intended to assist him in Foundation Building with a Foundation Establishment Pill. If not, he'd let him go after the ten-year period.

"This person has an extremely steadfast Dao heart. There haven't been any outstanding performances or issues. It seems he's not very concerned about anything other than cultivation."

Wang Hong felt that such a person couldn't be a confidant, but he was still useful. The next time he returned to Azure Void City, he planned to have a good talk with him.

As for the Ma Brothers, they have signed a lifelong Blood Contract. Once they reach the Grand Completion of Qi Cultivation, they can proceed with Foundation Building. However, given their timid nature, don't expect them to excel in combat.

Nevertheless, they can assist in Alchemy, and with two Foundation Building cultivators as a deterrent, they can also serve as a show of strength to intimidate others.

"What about the others?"

"Skinny Monkey has reached the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation, and the rest are between the Third and Sixth Layers of Body Refining."

"It's still a bit slow! Bring back some Elixirs like these next time; you can exchange them with contribution points and Demonic Beast corpses."

Wang Hong took out a Jade vial from his Storage Bag and handed it over.

Zhang Chunfeng took the Jade vial and poured out a pill. It was thumb-sized, with a golden hue. He had never seen this type of Elixir before.

"What kind of Elixir is this?" Zhang Chunfeng asked curiously.

"Try taking one. It's a new Elixir I formulated by referencing ancient recipes and using some new Medicinal Herbs, as well as the essence blood of Demonic Beasts."

Zhang Chunfeng was surprised to learn that Wang Hong could formulate Elixirs on his own. Alchemists typically followed recipes step by step, making any modifications a significant achievement that required extensive experience and knowledge.

Unknown to Zhang Chunfeng, Wang Hong had modified Elixir recipes multiple times during his Qi Cultivation period.

Zhang Chunfeng swallowed the Elixir, and as it released waves of energy in his abdomen, nourishing his muscles and bones, he felt his strength increase by at least a hundred kilograms.

He had previously consumed the Golden Body Pill, which increased strength by about thirty kilograms per pilla highly effective Elixir. However, Wang Hong's newly researched Elixir proved to be much stronger.

This Elixir was formulated by Wang Hong using nine-leaf golden thread grass of over three hundred years and a small amount of seeds from the demon-hunting tree. After numerous experiments, he managed to create it.

Originally intended to replace specific auxiliary Elixirs required by the "Body Strengthening Invincible Golden Body Technique," this new Elixir, though beneficial for body refining, fell short of the effects described in the technique. Yet, it was much more potent than taking Nourishing Essence Pills.

For Wang Hong, this Elixir was considered a work in progress. However, he was content with its current effects and planned to experiment further to refine it gradually.

Currently, the demon-hunting tree had started yielding results, but its conditions were somewhat unique. It only bore fruit after consuming a sufficient number of Demonic Beasts or humans. Additionally, the efficacy of the seeds varied, seemingly linked to the strength of the consumed Demonic Beasts.

Realizing this, Wang Hong replaced some acres of one-tier Spiritual Herbs with nine-leaf golden thread grass and demon-hunting trees. However, he lacked a substantial amount of Demonic Beast flesh and blood. Despite purchasing some in the Sect market, the supply was limited.

Typically, cultivators, to save Storage Bag space, only took the most valuable parts of Demonic Beasts after killing them in the wild. The rest of the flesh and blood were usually left behind and became food for other Demonic Beasts.

To address this, Wang Hong sent his subordinates to hunt Demonic Beasts. This not only allowed them to obtain Demonic Beast flesh and blood but also served as a training opportunity, familiarizing them with combat and giving them a chance to earn contribution points, exchange for Elixirs, and enhance their strength.
