Drunk Immortal Gourd

It would be a lie to say that they were not afraid. Not only Xiying and Xiao Yuhan were terrified, but even Qingyang broke out in a cold sweat when he recalled what happened before. Fortunately, Deputy General Manager Yang did not search them on the spot. If they had found a large number of spiritual stones on Xiying and Xiao Yuhan, they would have been speechless.

Xiying and Xiao Yuhan would definitely be executed on the spot. Although Qingyang had a way to save his life, many secrets would be exposed in public. Moreover, he would not be able to gain a foothold in Qingyan City in the future, and he would have to flee everywhere with this crime.

After returning to the inn, the three of them separated. Xiying and Xiao Yuhan both went into seclusion to practice hard, while Qingyang went into the alchemy room to refine pills. He no longer had any pills to use. He was used to using pills to improve his cultivation. He always felt that absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world was too slow. He had bought 300 portions of Yangyuan Pill materials and 30 portions of Juyuan Pill materials in Wantong Pavilion before, and they must be refined as soon as possible.

However, alchemy is a meticulous job. From preparation to refining to the pill coming out, it takes about three hours to refine one Yangyuan Pill. It takes two or three months to use up all the materials of 300 Yangyuan Pills without sleep. Juyuan Pill is more complicated and takes more time. It is not possible to refine all hundreds of materials in a short time.

This is why Wantong Pavilion set 200 Yangyuan Pills and Juyuan Pills for the guest Dan King in one year. It is better to meet a skilled alchemist. If the alchemist is not skilled enough and the speed of refining pills is slow, then it will take nearly half a year to refine all 400 materials without sleep. How much time will be left for cultivation?

Qingyang's situation is not bad. It is not difficult for him to refine Yangyuan Pill. Whether it is Caodan or Yuandan, he is very skilled. He does not need to waste too much extra time. He can refine about five to six materials a day, and 300 materials are less than two months.

During this period, Qingyang even tried batch refining, that is, operating multiple materials at the same time, but it was too difficult and the requirements for divine consciousness were too high. The success rate of the pill would drop from more than 40% to less than 30%. The loss was too great, so Qingyang did not continue to try. He could only wait until his cultivation level was improved, his alchemy skills were high, and his divine consciousness was stronger.

Two months passed unknowingly, and Qingyang had used up all the materials of the 300 Yangyuan Pills. A total of more than 120 Yangyuan Pills were refined. There was no shortage of pills for use in a short period of time, so Qingyang stopped refining pills. As for the 30 parts of the Juyuan Pill materials, they were used to improve the alchemy skills, and there was no rush, so Qingyang did not refine them for the time being.

During this period, Liu Wei sent someone to deliver 4,000 spirit stones as promised, which was regarded as compensation for their providing clues and being robbed on the Wantong Pavilion spirit ship, but Xiying and Xiao Yuhan were embarrassed to ask for it. This is normal. If there was no Qingyang, let alone Wantong Pavilion sending spirit stones, they could not even save their lives. How could they have the nerve to share spirit stones with Qingyang? Besides, they each got more than 30,000 spirit stones a while ago, and now they have no shortage of spirit stones, so they all go to Qingyang.

Before leaving Jiuzhou Continent, in order to refine the snake spirit armor, Qingyang exchanged almost all his things for spirit stones to pay the Mo family. At that time, Qingyang had only a lot of treasures and few spirit stones left, but in the past few years, his wallet has bulged again.

Not counting the sporadic gains on Wucheng Island, he got 2,000 spirit stones for alchemy on Hengxing Island alone, got a Yuhai Pingbo Pearl, saved a set of materials for the demon barrier pill worth 20,000 to 30,000, and each person got more than 30,000 for the blood skull's collection talisman, and more than 10,000 for the yellow-faced pirate's collection talisman. In addition to the 4,000 spirit stones given by Wantong Pavilion this time, Qingyang has nearly 60,000 spirit stones on him, which has exceeded many senior Jindan cultivators.

Fortunately, Qingyang has always been relatively low-key, and no one knows his situation. Even Xiying and Xiao Yuhan only vaguely know that Qingyang has more spirit stones and treasures than them, but no one knows how much more. Of course, like Qingyang, they dare not disclose any information about this, because the three of them are on the same boat. If others know that they have a lot of spirit stones, no one will be in trouble.

For cultivators, of course, the more spirit stones, the better. Although Qingyang's current wealth has exceeded that of many Jindan cultivators, these spirit stones are actually useless. The things that foundation-building cultivators need are not bad, and they can usually be bought with a few thousand spirit stones. If Qingyang does not have high requirements, these spirit stones are enough to support him to cultivate to the perfection of foundation-building and have some left over.

However, he had to consider the future. His qualifications were limited, and it was impossible for him to break through the Jindan stage by himself. He had to have the assistance of Jindan, and the price of Jindan was almost astronomical for the foundation-building cultivators. Apart from other things, one material cost 20,000 to 30,000 spiritual stones, and it would take at least four or five to successfully refine a Jindan, which was equivalent to more than 100,000. Qingyang's spiritual stones were only enough for half of it, and this was still the case when everything went well. If he was unlucky and failed to succeed with four or five materials, it would be even more difficult.

The road to immortal cultivation is fast step by step, and opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Qingyang had to consider these things now. If he was like others and waited until his cultivation reached the late stage of foundation building before making preparations, he didn't know how much he would delay.

After resting for a few days in the inn, Qingyang adjusted his state and was about to start refining the thirty materials for Juyuan Dan. Liu Wei came to the inn again and brought about Qingyang's application for the guest Dan King of Wantong Pavilion and Wantong Pavilion's arrangements for this matter.

The time is set for one month later, and the location is at Wantong Pavilion Danyuan Square. Not only the senior officials of Wantong Pavilion will be present, but some families close to Wantong Pavilion will also send people to participate. In addition, fellow alchemists from Qingyan City will also be present. It will be less. Because the test of Wantong Pavilion, the Keqing Alchemist King, is not only the matter of Wantong Pavilion itself, but also affects other families. It is also a rare event in the world of alchemists. With such a good exchange and learning opportunity, other alchemists are not willing to miss.

The only regret is that not only Qingyang participated in the test this time, but also the other three quasi-alchemy kings from Wantong Pavilion, which meant that Qingyang had three more competitors.

After Liu Wei's explanation, Qingyang knew the whole story. To put it bluntly, there were still people who were blocking it. Yang Mu was unwilling to accept the loss, so he sent someone to inquire about the situation of Qingyang and others, and soon found out the origins of the three of them. However, Qingyang, Xiying and others had been staying in the inn during this period. , Yang Mu couldn't find a chance to make a move, and Liu Wei had been watching from the side, so Yang Mu didn't cause any more trouble.
