Residence, Making Blood Ignition Pil I3

Translator: 549690339 I

After all, no matter how badass you say you are, there’s always something with a higher rank and properties that suppress you.

Like Earth Fire Evil Qi, although it is fire-related, living in the earth veins of mountains and rivers for years, it naturally restrains earth attributes.

Under the guidance of the Ailao Mountain Disciple, Luo Chen had his first glimpse at the object storing Earth Fire Evil Qi.

A stone that looked filled with many small holes, resembling a honeycomb. “This is the Floating Rock Stone, a companion object to the Earth Fire, one of which can contain up to ten strands of Earth Fire Evil Qi.”

“If you’re buying Earth Fire Evil Qi, you have to buy a Floating Rock Stone as well. So, the price…”

Fifty Spirit Stones!

Luo Chen was taken aback.

Earth Fire Evil Qi is just the lowest level and the most common Evil Qi, only First Order that’s it.

Just ten strands, and they want to sell it to him for fifty Spirit Stones!

Seeing Luo Chen’s pained expression, the cultivator laughed and said, “Of course, well also teach you how to guide Evil Qi. You’ll definitely profit from this deal.”

Hearing him say that, Luo Chen barely managed to accept it.

But after spending fifty Spirit Stones to buy Earth Fire Evil Qi, Luo Chen was still quite bitter.

This Immortal Residence of Ailao Mountain is really quite the profiteering merchant as well.

Not only do they sell items, they also do bundle sales.

Ten strands of Earth Fire Evil Qi, they actually bundled it to sell with the

Floating Rock Stone and the Control Evil Qi Technique.

After leaving the Immortal Residence, Luo Chen did some calculations.

Ten strands of Earth Fire Evil Qi needed fifty Spirit Stones.

Tian Yang Fruit is relatively cheaper, buying a quantity equivalent to the Earth Fire Evil Qi’s would take about ten Spirit Stones.

The Explosive Monkey Demon Blood, which is one of the three main ingredients for Blood Ignition Pill, is not cheap either.

He hasn’t gone to buy it yet, but he knows the corresponding price. To buy ten portions of Explosive Monkey Demon Blood would take at least thirty Spirit Stones.

If you add in the other auxiliary materials, that’s another twenty or so. Cumulatively, gathering ten main ingredient portions would take at least a hundred-ten Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

He didn’t realize until he did the math, the cost price is simply astronomical.

The cost per furnace starts at eleven Spirit Stones!

He hasn’t accounted for the other resources, wood burned for pill refinement, and other labor costs yet either.

The cost for the Allure Pill and Jade Marrow Pill is only about five Spirit Stones. Why is the cost for the Blood Ignition Pill so high?”

“Could it be because I deduced this pill formula on my own?”

Luo Chen couldn’t help but think about the pill formula.

Generally, mature pill formulas have been deduced countless times by Grandmasters of alchemy, with the main and auxiliary materials carefully selected.

The process might take tens, hundreds, or even thousands of years. Therefore, the ingredients in various pill formulas have already been brought down to their lowest prices.

However, his Blood Ignition Pill formula seems somewhat opportunistic. He deduced it from the Second Order Blood Evil Qi Pill and forced beginners to use the system’s help.

He hasn’t optimized or simplified it at all yet.

“If this line of reasoning is correct, then that means there’s room to optimize the Blood Ignition Pill formula.”

“But with my current understanding of the Dao of Alchemy, I’ve already given it my all to deduce a pill formula for beginners. How can I optimize it?”

If he can’t reduce the cost price, then profit from the elixir will be small.

Even if the effects are good, it’s still only a First Order Pill in the end.

It’s not effective for high-order cultivators and low-order cultivators can’t afford the high prices. Naturally, the profit will be minimal.

“Never mind, we’ll refine it first and see.”

“If the effect is mediocre and it’s not suitable for selling, I’ll use it myself!”

Luo Chen sighed, having made this plan.

He doesn’t intend to give up on refining the Blood Ignition Pill. After all, it’s a First Order Pill. What if it turns out to be really popular once it’s refined?

Besides, by refining the Blood Ignition Pill and raising his proficiency, it could also have the effect of improving the Blood Evil Qi Pill like a smart man learns from his mistakes.

After all, they both derive from the same source.

Over the next few days, he gradually gathered the remaining auxiliary materials.

As for the Explosive Monkey Demon Blood, he didn’t personally buy it, but asked Duan Feng to purchase it for him.

The reason he asked Duan Feng to do it was that it made sense for him to buy it.

Explosive Monkey Demon Blood is great for making a kind of highly nourishing medicinal soup that is quite beneficial for those who lack Qi and blood.

Those cultivators who often fight on the Dao Debate Platform would often buy it to make soup.

Luo Chen has seen this happen before.

When there was a death match between eighteen cultivators, Murong Qinglian once brewed a tiger bone soup for Qin Liangchen.

That tiger bone soup formula is the same as the highly nourishing medicinal soup mentioned earlier.

The only difference is the main ingredient. But the principle is the same.

After gathering the ingredients, Luo Chen prepared to start refining the Blood Ignition Pill.

And the place to refine it, he chose his own home, specifically, his small Pill Room.

Thud!

With a muffled sound, the Four Symbols Tripod landed over the Fire Pit.

Luo Chen frowned. His own Pill Room’s area was too small. Accommodating a Ten Feet tall Four Symbols Tripod made it feel quite crowded.

But there was nothing he could do.

He couldn’t openly conduct this operation in the Pill Room of the Crescent Valley.

Even if he refined the pills late at night, it could still easily be discovered by the night watch of the Broken Mountain Gang Cultivators.

So, he could only refine pills at home.

Without an assistant, Luo Chen had to do the mundane tasks of refining pills that he hadn’t done in a long time.

Heating the Four Symbols Tripod took a very long time, so relying solely on firewood wasn’t enough. Luo Chen had to multitask, occasionally shooting a fireball.

He also had to control his Spirit Power so as not to make the Fireball Technique too powerful.

Luckily, he was already familiar with the Play Flame Technique and could control the flames with great proficiency.

While doing these tedious tasks, Luo Chen even had time to reflect on his current situation..
