Taoist companions help me live forever

The destruction of the Zhou family was no small matter after all. It was like a bucket of cold water that dampened a lot of enthusiasm for the auction.

There are many monks who choose to leave, and no one wants to be killed for an inexplicable reason.

But many people still stayed.

This is the time of year when the most Foundation-Building Pills appear, and you must not give up for the sake of your own path.

Practicing can never be smooth sailing, some storms are inevitable.

However, it is obvious that the market is quite deserted. People are waiting for the auction to be held and have actively reduced other activities.

In particular, the black market in shantytowns was directly abolished.

Even if he earns less spiritual stones, he does not take the initiative to cause trouble, and is ready to close down the business from now on. It is obvious that someone with good intentions already knows why the Zhou family was destroyed.

In this low-pressure, awkward atmosphere.

Three months passed by in a flash.

The auction has begun.

Shangyang Mountain, the cave of a certain alchemy master.

The formation opened, and a beautiful woman with the fragrance of red pepper on her body walked out and said to Yu Xian who was waiting at the door:

"Fellow Daoist Yu, you are fortunate to have fulfilled your destiny. This is the Foundation Building Pill you want."

As soon as she extended her hand, a jade bottle fluttered in front of Yu Xian's eyes. There was a golden Foundation Establishment Pill inside.

Yu Xian took the jade bottle, scanned it with his consciousness, and found that it was almost the same as the Foundation Establishment Pill brought back by Patriarch Zhao, confirming that it was the genuine article.

"Excuse me, Master Luo."

The beautiful woman's name is Luo Han. She is an alchemy master in the early stage of foundation building. She is the only three alchemy masters in Shangyang City who can stably refine foundation building pills, and she is also the only female alchemy master.

She once owed Patriarch Zhao a favor.

Although Patriarch Zhao has passed away, his family and descendants are still there.

Yu Xian is worried that accidents may happen during the auction, such as real people fighting, and the crowd of onlookers causing trouble.

So even though he knew that this was Danyang Zhenren's last clearance sale, he still held back.

However, although he did not go there in person, he asked a manager from the Zhao Family Trading Company to go to the auction house on his behalf, guaranteeing one price, two would be the best, and three would not be too much.

At the same time, on behalf of the Zhao family, he used the favor of the deceased ancestor Zhao to take out a demon pill as the main material and asked Master Luo to refine a foundation-building pill.

As mentioned before, there are three sources of Shangyang City’s Foundation Building Pill.

The first one is an auction held every ten years. In every auction, there are bound to be foundation-building pills and foundation-building spiritual objects, but the quantity is more or less.

The second one is the Demonic Pill Purchase Office in Fangshi. Two second-level Demonic Pills are exchanged for one Foundation-Establishing Pill. The advantage is that if the Demonic Pill is sufficient, the Foundation-Establishing Pill will be sufficient.

But generally not many people are willing to do it.

Except for accidents like the beast tide, if you want the demon elixir, you can only go deep into the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains. Even the foundation-building monks will fall into it accidentally.

The third one is the alchemy furnace of the alchemy master.

This is also the source of the most foundation-building pills in Shangyang City.

If you can gather enough materials for the foundation-building elixir, you can ask an alchemist to open a furnace to refine the elixir. The alchemist will take 30% of the elixir as a commission, or it can be exchanged for a generous reward of spiritual stones.

If the alchemy fails, no money will be taken, and at most, an apology will be added.

However, it is not an easy task even for a Foundation Establishment monk to gather enough materials for a furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills.

Once it fails, decades of hard work may be wasted.

Therefore, an alchemy master like Master Luo who can refining the Foundation Establishment Pill stably can imagine that his business is busy.

The business of entrusting her to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill has been scheduled for twenty years.

This is the meaning of Zhao Laozu's favor.

Jump in line for alchemy, add demon pills and replace them with foundation-building pills.

"When I first arrived in Shangyang City, I had no relatives. It was Daoist Fellow Zhao who took great care of me, and refining the foundation-building elixir for my descendants was something I promised.

I just never thought that the last separation would be forever. "

The face of the young alchemist showed a bit of sadness, and she was very concerned about the sudden death of Patriarch Zhao.

Yu Xian was shocked.

The "Fu Princess" of Patriarch Zhao is not in the Zhao family, but in Shangyang Mountain.

But you can understand it if you think about it.

As a real boy, you have to follow the real person in your daily routine, and your schedule is inseparable from Shangyang City. There are only so many people you can come into contact with.

As a foundation-building monk who rose from the bottom, Patriarch Zhao has his own pride, and most women will definitely look down upon him.

Master Luo, who also lives in Shangyang Mountain, belongs to the first-come-first-served category.

However, the two of them are probably still at the stage where they are more than friends and not yet lovers. Some feelings end before they are even spoken out.

Of course, it's more likely to be unrequited love.

After all, when Patriarch Zhao was squeezed out of his residual value, when he talked about Master Luo, he simply said that he owed a favor and could ask for his help when necessary.

"Master Luo, my condolences. Fellow Taoist Zhao suddenly suffered from a serious illness. It was his destiny. Fortunately, he walked very quickly and there was no pain."

Yu Xian comforted him.

Luo Han was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Yu Xian with a strange expression. No matter how he heard it, he felt that there was something wrong with what he said.

But Zhao Qingfeng is dead, so a furnace of foundation-building pills is enough to cut off her relationship with the Zhao family.

After thinking this, Luo Han's expression returned to normal, even a little cold.

"The favor is over, please come back, Fellow Daoist Yu."

Yu Xian didn't expect this woman to fall out so quickly, so he quickly stopped Luo Han who was about to go back to the cave.

"Wait a moment."

Luo Han stopped and turned around: "What's wrong?"

Yu Xian smiled and said, "It used to be Zhao Daoyou's family matter, but now it's Yu's private matter."

As he spoke, he flipped his palm and took out the late second-level silver-backed violent ape's demon elixir.

"Yu's family has a good wife who is about to build a foundation, so I would like to ask Master Luo to make another pot of foundation-building pills. As per the old rules, Yu only needs one pill."

Luo Han looked at Yao Dan in surprise and said:

"This Demonic Pill is extraordinary. Even without me taking action, there are many alchemists who can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill using it as the main material."

"However, I only refine one furnace of Foundation Building Pills every year. This time I made an exception for the sake of Fellow Daoist Zhao. Fellow Daoist Yu, please find someone else."

Refining pills cannot increase cultivation, but refining a furnace of foundation-building pills takes a month or two.

Naturally, it was impossible for Luo Han to devote all his energy to refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Yu Xian had already predicted it and followed the good path:

"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Luo has an alchemist to introduce you to me?"

Luo Han laughed, like ice and snow thawing and flowers blooming, which made Yu Xian secretly lament that Old Ancestor Zhao didn't understand the thoughts of beautiful women.

If it were him, this fellow Daoist Luo would have given birth to three children.

"Fellow Daoist Yu has been waiting for me here for a long time."

Luo Han had a good first impression of Yu Xian's good appearance and temperament, coupled with Patriarch Zhao's reputation, and he didn't mind giving an unsuspecting favor at this moment.

"Fellow Daoist Mo from Cave B-3 has reached the second level of alchemy and has experience in successfully refining foundation-building elixirs."

Luo Han sent a name card and said:

"Fellow Daoist Yu can go to him with the name card. With such information, he will definitely agree happily."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Luo, for your help."

Yu Xian bowed his hands and left decisively.

Such alchemy masters who can refine foundation-building pills are the treasures of Shangyang City.

If he dares to flirt a few more times, regardless of whether he is able to flirt or not, he will first become a thorn in the eyes of many people and a thorn in the flesh.

Moreover, Luo Han has become a forbidden concubine in Shangyang City in a sense.

Although she has a high status and even the foundation-building monks flatter her, she has little chance of leaving Shangyang City in this life.

Otherwise, if she leaves, she will be imprisoned in the secret room of a cultivating family, and she will be reduced to an alchemy machine for the rest of her life.

Moreover, this Master Luo has a good temperament and appearance, so he might be reduced to a fertility machine.

After all, her alchemy aptitude is so good, and her cultivation aptitude is not bad either. Her descendants might be able to inherit some of her aptitudes.

Yu Xian never overestimates human nature.

Luo Han could not protect the interests she could represent just by relying on her early foundation-building skills.

Presumably, she understood this problem, so even when the news came that Patriarch Zhao had passed away, she did not take a step out of Shangyang City.

With Luo Han's name card, Yu Xian quickly found the cave of fellow Taoist Mo.

This is an unkempt, rather slovenly-looking middle-aged man, with the temperament of a man from science and engineering.

When he heard that it was Luo Han's introduction, he immediately perked up and took the name card with a faint fragrance and read it again and again.

After seeing Yu Xian's demon elixir, he even bluntly said that within a year at most, he would gather enough materials and refine the elixir in front of them. After the elixir was completed, Yu Xian could choose first.

This is also the rule for most people to make alchemy.

Everyone will come up with the materials together, and after the furnace of Foundation-Building Pills is refined, whoever comes up with the most materials will be chosen first.

After all, one furnace of Foundation Establishment Pills can usually produce two to three Foundation Establishment Pills.

Yu Xian, a late second-level demon pill, is enough to serve as the first main material.

As for why Luo Han didn't have to wait a year before practicing again.

Naturally, it's because for an alchemist of her level, she can make enough raw materials for several furnaces of foundation-building elixirs just by cutting some of them off when refining alchemy.

This is also considered an unspoken rule for alchemists.

Everyone knows it, but as long as you can refine the elixir, it's up to you how much you can retain.

"Haha, if Fellow Daoist Mo wants to come looking for me, you can send someone to send the news to the Zhao Family Trading Company. I will definitely come as soon as I get the news."

After Yu Xian reached an agreement with Alchemist Mo, he also left without any regrets.

Wait until Yu Xian leaves.

Alchemist Mo called his apprentice and said: "Go and inform those people who asked me to make alchemy before. Now someone has taken a copy of the late second-level demon elixir. This time, my master will definitely be able to refine a batch of foundation-building elixirs." .”

"Okay Master."

The apprentice was a young man with a simple and honest face, and he answered honestly.

"Do you really understand?"

"Inform them to make alchemy and prepare the materials."

"Then what."

"I agree to whoever offers the most benefits."

"Very well, my good disciple, don't say that I'm treating you badly as a teacher. You'll get more benefits than you deserve, so go ahead."

Alchemist Mo waved away his apprentice, then took out Luo Han's name card and read it again and again with joy.

"Fairy Luo, alas..."
