I Use My Secondary Job To Add Talents

Chapter 40: Thousand Hand Guanyin

According to Huang Yuyan and the green-clad maid, there is some animosity between the Wang family and Song Fulu.

Now, even the Wang family is willing to let their best sixth miss marry Song Fulu, their enemy. This shows how much weight Song Fulu carries now.

After the banquet, Song Fulu was directly promoted to the third shopkeeper of the Huang family's medicine shop, and it was already decided that he would be the next head shopkeeper. Originally, they had planned for Song Fulu to manage some affairs of the medicine shop, but Song Fulu showed no interest and directly refused, stating that he wanted to focus on refining medicine and improving his Alchemy Technique.

This made the Huang family value him even more, and they wanted to win him over. The high-ranking members of the Huang family and various forces increased their efforts. It is clear that everyone prefers an alchemist who values skills and has no ambitions.

Song Fulu also successfully joined the refining process of the Nurturing Spirit Pills. On the first day, he successfully refined two furnaces of Nurturing Spirit Pills, using only six medicinal ingredients. Zhao Jiang then decided to entrust the task of refining Nurturing Spirit Pills to Song Fulu.

It should be noted that even Zhao Jiang and Ma Qingshan usually need to use three or four medicinal ingredients to refine a furnace of Nurturing Spirit Pills. Sometimes, even five ingredients may not be enough to refine a furnace.

Song Fulu has just started to learn the refining of Nurturing Spirit Pills, but he has already surpassed the two of them. As long as he becomes familiar with it, he will definitely be able to ensure that three medicinal ingredients will produce one furnace of Nurturing Spirit Pills, meeting the requirements of the Huang family, or even surpassing them.

Sure enough, after entrusting this task to Song Fulu, he never made any mistakes. Three sets of medicinal ingredients would always produce one set of Nurturing Spirit Pills, and occasionally even two furnaces. The Huang family was extremely satisfied with this.

This event completely solidified Song Fulu's position in the Huang family's medicine shop. Being able to guarantee a certain success rate even with the difficult Nurturing Spirit Pills surpassed Ma Qingshan and Zhao Jiang to some extent, although Song Fulu's success rate in refining other Mortal Level pills was not as high.

Song Fulu did not expect that Zhao Jiang would entrust him with the task of refining Nurturing Spirit Pills. However, considering Zhao Jiang and Ma Qingshan's success rates, as well as the increasing workload in their hands, Song Fulu understood.

Although Zhao Jiang and Ma Qingshan knew that refining Nurturing Spirit Pills could bring them personal gains, their success rates were not high, and the opportunity to profit was not frequent.

Most importantly, Zhao Jiang and Ma Qingshan are already old and have lost their drive for advancement. They are not very interested in improving their spiritual power, as their current level of spiritual power is already sufficient.

Taking everything into account, this is why Song Fulu benefited.

With his tenth-level Alchemy Technique, even when refining Nurturing Spirit Pills, Song Fulu can guarantee a success rate of over fifty percent. With two sets of medicinal ingredients, he can at least successfully refine one furnace, and with six sets, he can refine three furnaces. He can give two furnaces to the Huang family and keep one for himself.

A furnace of Nurturing Spirit Pills usually contains three to four pills, and each pill is worth five taels of gold, which is equivalent to five hundred taels of silver or five hundred thousand in the currency of the previous life.

The effects of the Nurturing Spirit Pills are beyond imagination. One pill is equivalent to half a month of Song Fulu's arduous cultivation of Sensing Technique. Song Fulu takes at least one pill every day, and his spiritual power begins to grow at an unimaginable speed.

In just one month, Song Fulu's spiritual power has increased by more than double compared to before, surpassing that of an ordinary person by more than forty times.

His immense spiritual power can be released through Sensing Technique, covering an area of forty meters in diameter, allowing him to clearly perceive the existence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Song Fulu even had a feeling that once he reached the Earth Gate Perfection, relying solely on his strong spiritual power, he should be able to forcefully condense the True Qi seed and step into the realm of Transcendent.

Breaking through to Transcendent only requires ten times the spiritual power of an ordinary person, but Song Fulu has far surpassed this condition.

However, at this point, all the Nurturing Spirit grass has been consumed by Song Fulu. He has refined about 120 furnaces of Nurturing Spirit pills, and after deducting the 90 furnaces handed over to the Huang family, Song Fulu has netted 40 furnaces of Nurturing Spirit pills, of which 20 furnaces have already been taken by Song Fulu.

Song Fulu still has 20 furnaces of Nurturing Spirit pills on him, totaling 65 pills worth more than 300 taels of gold. These pills are priceless and can hardly be found in Passing River City.

Occasionally, one may appear on the black market, and its price can often be several times higher. It is said that the market price is only five taels of gold, but it is actually much higher.

Unfortunately, after taking so many Nurturing Spirit pills, Song Fulu's body has developed resistance to them. The effect of taking more Nurturing Spirit pills is limited, so he can only continue to enhance his spiritual power through induction techniques.

Song Fulu also tried to buy more pills to enhance his spiritual power, but unfortunately, it cost him a lot of time and energy. He could only buy a few pills in a few months, averaging one pill per month. It was not cost-effective, and it would be better to focus on practicing induction techniques.

Passing River City is ultimately a bit barren. In the future, he will have to go to those county cities.

During his cultivation breaks, Song Fulu also learned a martial art called Thousand Hand Guanyin, but only the upper part.

Thousand Hand Guanyin is the most famous attack manual of the Huang family. With this hidden weapon technique, the Huang family dominates Passing River City and is one of the four major families.

If it weren't for Song Fulu being the youngest High Level pharmacist in Passing River City, having a clean background, being a good person, and making great contributions in refining Nurturing Spirit pills, he wouldn't have obtained this Thousand Hand Guanyin.

It is said that Thousand Hand Guanyin is a divine manual that transcends the Mortal Level. The upper part corresponds to the cultivation of Martial Artists, while the middle and lower parts correspond to the cultivation of Transcendent. Therefore, even if it is only the upper part, it can be considered top-notch and is the number one hidden weapon manual in Passing River City.

Once Song Fulu perfects the upper part of Thousand Hand Guanyin, when he releases the hidden weapons, it will be like having ten hands, instantly shooting out ten hidden weapons that are difficult to defend against.

Song Fulu spent a day to get started with it, and ten days later, he had achieved some proficiency. He could instantly shoot out several hidden weapons, and their power was quite impressive.

This has more than doubled Song Fulu's combat power from before. Now, he has Mountain Fist and Whirlwind Blade Technique for frontal attacks, Windborne Footsteps for assistance, Wind Shadow Arrow Technique and Thousand Hand Guanyin for sneak attacks and assassinations, and Steel Armor Technique for defense.

With Song Fulu's overall strength, he can basically sweep the Body Refining realm. Looking at the entire Passing River City, there should be no Martial Artist who can defeat him one-on-one.

The cultivation of the Blood Transformation realm is about to reach perfection, and everything is progressing in a good direction. Although it has only been a few months since joining the Huang family, the benefits Song Fulu has gained are beyond imagination. This step was indeed the right one.

However, with Song Fulu's assistance, Ma Qingshan's position in the Huang family has become completely stable. Especially with Song Fulu's promotion to a High Level pharmacist and his clear statement of not being interested in power, allowing Ma Qingshan to make all the decisions in the future, Ma Qingshan's position in the Huang family's pharmacy has subtly surpassed Zhao Jiang.
