Taoist companions help me live forever

Chapter 284 Showing Fangs in the Dark (6.5k 200 monthly votes)

Huofeng Mountain.

This is a dangerous active volcano. Legend has it that a demon emperor fire phoenix once fell here, creating a unique geographical environment here.

In addition, there is a third-level spiritual vein here, which is enough for daily practice.

Therefore, there are many wild alchemists and weapon refiners gathered here. While using the fire of Huofeng Mountain to refine alchemy and weapons, they can also communicate with each other and make progress together.

Later, a loose organization of the Alchemist and Weapon Refiner Society was established here.

From this the society gradually became famous.

Many low-level professional monks from the Kunai inheritance will come here to seek Dharma.

Lord Fire Pill is one of them.

It is said that True Monarch Fire Pill was of ordinary origin, just the son of an ordinary hunter in the mountains. Because of his intelligence, he was chosen to be the fire-burning boy of the immortal master in their village.

Later, the village suffered a catastrophe, and he received the immortal master's inheritance. He struggled to survive and practice, but was fortunately taken in by the alchemist society.

In the academy, the talent of Lord Fire Alchemy was revealed, and he became the favored son of the Alchemist Academy. He also had adventures and inherited the alchemy method.

True Lord Fire Pill's cultivation level was getting higher and higher, and he began to occupy a high position in the society.

Until True Lord Fire Pill took the pill and gained enlightenment, and became True Lord Nascent Soul.

He then completely took control of the society, absorbed the essence of the society, and created an alchemy method that was completely at his command.

So far, the Dan method has been established in Huofeng Mountain for nearly five hundred years.

The Alchemist and Artifact Refiner Society is a thing of the past. When people mention Huofeng Mountain, they will only think of the Alchemy Sect and the Fire Alchemy Master.

True Lord Fire Pill became the sage who protected countless alchemists and made the alchemy method prosperous here.

"Fellow Daoist Yang, do you think this rumor is true?"

In the past two months, Yu Xian has not been waiting outside the city. From time to time, he went to Danfamen's territory to visit, and he learned some basic information and even rumors and anecdotes.

"True and false, right and wrong, have long been submerged in the dust of history. Even if we can figure it out, what's the point?"

Wanshou Zhenren has always maintained a cold persona since Zhu Yurong stood firmly with Zhongshan Zhenjun and betrayed him without hesitation.

When I speak now, my tone is somewhat mournful.

Yu Xian knew that this guy was a slut.

He said that he had expected it, and looked like he was strategizing, but in fact he didn't know why he felt sad.

He might even hope that Zhu Yurong would really die in the hands of True Lord Chongshan, which would give him some comfort.

After all, he himself can't forgive, but he can't do it, so it's the same with others helping him.

The result was good. The woman who betrayed him slapped him in the face and stabbed him again. It felt so sour.

In response, Yu Xian responded with 120,000 points of sympathy and ridicule.

It's funny, after following him for so long, you still dare to have excessive expectations for love.

The reason why love is precious and beautiful is that it can be encountered but not sought.

Most love is like a firework, it burns brightly for a while and then leaves only ashes. Both parties despise its ugliness afterwards.

No matter how sincere the relationship between him and Zhu Yurong was.

After so many years, she has turned into someone else's shape, and she still expects to wake up her sleeping love when she meets him once. It is better to just go to sleep and dream.

But this is also the cuteness of Wanju Zhenren.

I have experienced darkness and pain that is unimaginable to ordinary people, but I still retain a soft and pure place in my heart.

Just like he himself is obviously a heinous devil, but he still advises him not to become a devil, even if he wants to die to do so.

Yu Xian did not mention the sadness of Master Wan Beast, and said with a smile: "On the contrary, I think it may not be groundless.

The Dan Method Sect has ruled this place for so many years, but there are still such rumors circulating. Obviously, the Dan Method Sect is not monolithic, and there are forces opposed to the Fire Pill True Lord.

We have two main purposes for coming here this time. One is to find out who is plotting against Datonghui behind the scenes, and the other is to pack up and take away the alchemist here.

Maybe you can start with this rumor. "

Master Wan Beast shook his head and said: "I'm just a weapon spirit, responsible for fighting. Don't ask me. Anyway, I will kill whoever you want me to kill."

He already looked like he had seen through the world.

"If there is no thought, there will be no pain."

"But there's no joy either."

Yu Xian stretched out his hand to grab it, and the body of Wanshou Zhenren twisted and turned into a small bloody flag.

"You'd better calm down first. If you really can't bear it, I wouldn't mind helping you cleanse your memory and turn into a pure weapon spirit.

But don’t worry, I will also help you avenge you, it will just be a matter of convenience in the future. "

His body shape and appearance changed again, and by the time he entered the alchemy sect, he had turned into a middle-aged man with a rough face, profound cultivation, and a golden elixir cultivation level.

…

As a force with alchemists as the main group, the alchemy sect's main source of income comes from alchemy orders and the wholesale and retail of elixirs.

Yuxian understands it as a high-end product processing factory and also does direct sales.

The former come from fellow Nascent Soul-level forces and some Jindan-level forces, while the latter come from various caravans and merchants.

Therefore, outside the mountain gate of Danfa Sect, there is a city specially set up for this purpose, called Huofengfang City.

The main sales of Fangshi are the recycling of various elixirs and medicinal materials, as well as the recycling of some magical instruments and ores.

After all, the alchemy method still has the foundation learned by some weapon refiners.

Lingdan Pavilion is the largest elixir wholesale place in Huofengfang City. The supply of goods is directly distributed by Danfamen.

When Yu Xian walked into the hall, the aroma of various medicinals hit his face.

The smell is very mixed, but surprisingly good.

Ordinary qi-training monks practice here, and their cultivation efficiency will probably increase by several percent just by relying on these medicinal fragrances.

Yu Xian did not hide his aura, Jin Dan's imposing presence made people notice him immediately.

A pretty female intellectual came up to him with a smile, her attitude was a little warm but not presumptuous.

"Senior, I don't know if I can help you."

Although Lingdan Pavilion has the Alchemy Sect as its backend, it does not mean that they can treat guests with arrogance.

Because every guest who comes to Lingdan Pavilion is their God of Wealth.

Without these Gods of Wealth, no matter how well the elixirs of the alchemy sect are refined and how many can be sold, one cannot eat them all by oneself.

If you can't sell it, you won't be able to recycle the spirit stones, and you won't be able to purchase medicinal materials. In the end, no matter how superb your alchemy skills are, you will have to face the situation of having no elixir to refine.

In the end, they could only go their separate ways and join the major forces.

Except for those alchemists who are powerful themselves, the treatment of middle and low-level alchemists is not much better than that of alchemy machines.

Therefore, Lingdan Pavilion never selects customers, even if they just buy a piece of Lingdan elixir, they will provide the best service.

On the contrary, it is the Miao Yao Pavilion not far next door.

As Party A, who is mainly engaged in purchasing elixirs, has a somewhat arrogant attitude, and is also a bit picky about customers. It is not large quantities of goods, but precious single items, and they don't like to raise their eyebrows at all.

Yu Xian threw out a pill bottle and said straight to the point:

"I want the elixir here, as much as I want it!"

The female intellectual opened the elixir bottle, glanced at it, and her expression changed slightly.

"I'm sorry, senior, our Lingdan Pavilion doesn't sell this type of elixir yet."

"nonsense!"

Yu Xian frowned and his aura went down.

"Do you think that a certain family can't afford spiritual stones?! Or are you bullying a certain family that is new to the country and doesn't understand the rules?!"

When the female intellectual guest saw Yu Xian being so arrogant, her delicate body swayed slightly, as if she was frightened.

"Why should Fellow Taoist embarrass a junior? She does not have the authority to sell this elixir. If Fellow Daoist really wants it, why not come and discuss it in detail."

A message came to Yu Xian's ear.

"I wish I had said this earlier. If I didn't get angry, I would be treating me like a bumpkin. A certain family has a lot of spiritual stones!"

Yu Xian snorted coldly.

The female intellectual guest led the way aggrievedly.

"Senior, please come with me."

The two walked through the hall and went to the back hall.

The female intellectual opened the door of a private room.

"Senior, there is Alchemist Lin inside. You have to find him for the elixir you want."

"I know, bring me here as soon as possible. Why should I embarrass you? Go down."

Yu Xian grabbed the female Zhike's hand and slapped it out with a medium-grade spiritual stone.

"One code equals another. This is your reward for leading the way."

After that, without waiting for the female intellectual guest to speak, Yu Xian walked into the room and closed the door.

The female Zhike grabbed the spirit stone and felt that the little grievance she had just felt was gone. Her favorable impression of this rough-looking senior suddenly increased.

She stood here welcoming people back and forth, with a smile on her face, just for the sake of this shiny gadget in her hand.

If someone could get a middle-grade spiritual stone with just one harsh word, she would definitely be happy with it. If a time limit had to be added, she hoped it would be 10,000 words.

For a moment, that rough beard suddenly became sexy.

…

The private room is also an alchemy room.

There was an alchemy furnace inside, still warm with fire.

A shrewd-looking man with a mustache smiled and invited: "Fellow Taoist, please take a seat."

"You are Alchemist Lin, can you make the decision? Don't ask a certain family to make another trip in vain?"

Yu Xian was very rude.

Master Lin stroked his mustache and said confidently:

"Lin asked himself that he was still able to speak in the Lingdan Pavilion. It was the Fire Pill Master. Lin also attended several classes under his seat."

"That's good."

Yu Xian nodded.

"Um?"

Before Master Lin could react, he felt a suffocating pressure coming over him, and only two words came faintly in his ears - great love.

He gritted his teeth and resisted the pressure everywhere, without even the slightest strength to resist.

A real man in the middle Nascent Soul stage sneaked up on him, a real man in the middle stage of the Golden Core stage, and still asked him to have the ability to react. This is a ghost.

Not to mention that this true king cultivates the sixth way.

About half an hour later.

Master Lin's eyes were distorted for a while, and then he regained his clarity.

At this moment, when he looked at Yu Xian, he seemed to be seeing the person he was closest to and most trusted, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to open up to him and tell everything.

"Fellow Taoist, you seem to be a friend of Lin's whom I haven't seen for a long time. Please sit down quickly."

Master Lin completely forgot what happened just now and was so enthusiastic that he couldn't be more excited.

The Great Love Law Realm is not to destroy people's will and wisdom and turn them into dull puppets, but to change people's underlying logic.

Nothing about him has changed, except when facing Yi Xian, he will produce an instinctive obedience, as if there is a subconscious influencing him.

Yu Xian sat down next to him and picked up some tea.

"Hey, fellow Taoist, wait a minute, this tea is not delicious. Taoist, try this precious Dongting tea collected by Lin. It has a wonderful fragrance and is unforgettable."

Master Lin looked like he was heartbroken.

Yu Xian shook his head and said, "Alchemist Lin, let's hold off on tea. Let's talk about the elixir."

"Yes, pill."

Master Lin is a little confused:

"To be honest with you fellow Taoist, this spiritual rice pill is in very short supply. There is no need to worry about selling it. Even if the entire pill method is vigorously refining it, it still cannot satisfy the market."

Yu Xian was surprised: "How popular is it? I also want to make a lot of money with this elixir. It seems that I am not the only smart person in the world."

Alchemist Lin sighed: "Yes, I don't know who researched this elixir. It only requires ordinary spiritual rice and some weeds with some spiritual energy to refine it. The cost is low and the effect is surprisingly good.

Once it came out, it shocked us all. "

Yu Xian asked casually: "Oh, this kind of spiritual elixir was not researched by Zhenjun Huo Dan?"

Alchemist Lin said sincerely: "Zhenjun Fire Pill is very powerful, but I haven't studied such low-level pill formulas for a long time.

A friend of Zhenjun brought Lingmi Dan and asked him to imitate it.

In order to imitate this Lingmidan, our Alchemy Sect, together with True Monarch Fire Pill and twelve third-level alchemy masters, spent half a year researching the Lingmidan before imitating it.

Lin was not talented and had a personal relationship with one of the alchemists involved, so he found out some hidden secrets.

At the beginning, our imitation of Lingmidan was only 50% effective. Later, we continued to improve it, and it was less than 80% effective. If we want to improve it again, it will not be achieved overnight. "

"I see."

Yu Xian continued to ask:

"Since the elixir formula is already under your control, you can just refine the elixir. Why are there still shortages of elixirs? You just said that you can sell some elixirs to me?"

Alchemist Lin felt rather embarrassed and said, "Oh, fellow Taoist was so aggressive just now, which angered our Pavilion Master.

So the master of the pavilion ordered Lin to teach you a lesson.

When we receive the deposit from fellow Taoists, it is not up to us to decide when the elixir will be handed over to fellow Taoists.

However, I hit it off with fellow Taoist Taoist, so naturally we can’t harm fellow Taoist. "

Yu Xian smiled and said, "You are not afraid of destroying the sign."

Master Lin stroked his mustache and looked confident.

"Although Lingdan Pavilion is open to welcome guests from all directions, behind us are the Alchemy Sect and Master Zhenjun. If fellow Taoists cause trouble, they will only be asking for trouble."

Yu Xian chuckled.

Master Lin now regards Yu Xian as a confidant and is unwilling to expose his own shortcomings. It seems that they are bullying others and quickly changes the subject.

“To say that our alchemy sect has accumulated many years of savings, there are two fourth-level alchemists in the sect, dozens of third-level alchemists, and even thousands of first- and second-level alchemists.

If they were all refining with full firepower, millions or tens of millions of spiritual rice pills could be refined in one day.

However, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Although the refining of this spiritual rice pill is easy, it consumes a lot of spiritual rice.

Therefore, the amount of spiritual rice pills depends on how much spiritual rice can be sent from the outside world.

The territory under our jurisdiction in Donghua Tiancheng is rugged and difficult to access by land. Only airships and ships are the most convenient.

But airships are so expensive, how can ordinary forces afford to build a fleet?

The only force that can mobilize a large amount of spiritual rice now is the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, the spiritual rice pills we are currently refining are all orders from the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, and only some of the remaining ones will be divided among our internal alchemists.

The spiritual rice pill in the hands of fellow Taoist must have been sold privately by some alchemist to his relatives and friends.

But fellow Taoist, don’t worry, our alchemy sect is already secretly purchasing spiritual rice, and it won’t take long before a large amount of spiritual rice pills will be refined.

Lin will be the first to notify his friends when the time comes. "

Yu Xian fell into deep thought.

Master Lin said a lot, but he only heard one key point.

That is, there are thousands of alchemists in the alchemy sect, and they are all chickens that only produce golden elixirs.

You must know that after so many years of training in the Datong Association, there are only one to two hundred alchemists in each branch, and most of them are first- and second-level alchemists.

If a third-level alchemist can be assigned to a branch, it will be considered as meeting the requirements.

If he could take all these alchemists back...

No, you can't turn back. Mingyue Tiancheng doesn't have a unique alchemy holy land like Huofeng Mountain.

As long as he masters this elixir method and focuses on refining spiritual rice elixirs, it will be enough to bring him hundreds of millions of spiritual stone profits every year.

Even based on the daily refining amount of 10 million spiritual rice pills.

His cost price is one-tenth of the spirit stone, the selling price is one-quarter of the spirit stone, and the profit is 150%.

Even after subtracting labor costs, warehousing costs, transportation costs, etc., based on 100% profit, the profit is one million spirit stones per day.

So that’s more than three hundred million spiritual stones a year.

This is just the profit from the Dan method.

There are also alchemists trained by Datong Society themselves, and the alchemy sect can continue to recruit alchemists, and the output will only increase.

In other words, it can provide him with at least 200 places for fake alchemy monks every year, and it can also make up for the deficit of the Great Love Project and the losses of the Taoist Army.

Especially the latter.

The Taoist Legion is the best guard for the transport fleet. As soon as it comes in and out, the Taoist Legion's performance may be able to turn losses into profits and start generating revenue for the Datong Society.

If the refining cost of the heretic golden elixir is further reduced, this number will rise.

And this cost will definitely be further reduced. The beast tide that occurs every fifty years is the best place for him to pick up goods.

Of course, this is only the most ideal situation.

Such a huge profit is enough to attract the covetous attention of the great monks of Nascent Soul.

You must know that the total tax revenue that Mingyue Tiancheng submits to Xuanyang Sect every year is only one or two billion spiritual stones.

There will definitely be some twists and turns at that time.

But none of these could stop his desire for spiritual stones.

Because he clearly understands that as his strength and power become stronger and stronger, these accidents and problems will be solved.

For a while.

Yu Xian developed an extremely strong desire to covet the alchemy disciple.

He originally only had this concept vaguely in his mind and wanted to use the alchemy method as a money-making tool.

Now this concept is becoming more concrete and clearer.

Thousands of alchemists from the Alchemy School will become stepping stones on his path to success.

In this way, the Alchemy Sect can no longer treat him violently, but must treat his future God of Wealth well.

Yu Xian even looked at Master Lin with gentle eyes.

Influenced by his great love for the Dharma Domain, it would be easy for him to abduct Master Lin Alchemy now, but what he wants is the entire Alchemy Sect.

The biggest obstacle to mastering the alchemy method is the True Monarch of Fire Alchemy, a powerful monk who was once as equal as the Luan Fire Demon Emperor.

"Conquer him?"

This was the first thought that came to Yu Xian's mind.

He never uses violence as the first means to solve problems. Win-win cooperation is the best result.

Moreover, subduing True Lord Fire Pill is also the most perfect solution.

Otherwise, if he can beat the snake and survive, then the connections that Lord Fire Pill has accumulated over the years will be enough for him to gain a frightening group of power, which may even backfire on him and Datonghui.

There is also the Lingmi Dan business. It has been confirmed that people from Xuanyang Sect and Wanbao Chamber of Commerce are involved.

Although they were only part of Xuanyang Sect and Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, and might not be as powerful as him and Yuejiu combined, together they were a force that should not be underestimated.

After thinking about it, Yu Xian realized that in a real fight, unless he beat Master Fire Pill to death all at once, he would easily be dragged into the quagmire.

"This matter requires a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, we need to study the weaknesses of True Lord Fire Alchemy, and use enough bargaining chips to impress him or make him surrender, while at the same time, we slowly eat away at the group of alchemists of the Alchemy Sect.

In the end, even if the negotiation with Lord Fire Alchemy breaks down, I will be able to start a new business with the alchemist of the Alchemy Sect.

If most of the alchemists of the Alchemy School support me, then I represent the great justice of the Alchemy School, and no one can say that I bullied True Lord Fire Alchemy.

Once the master becomes famous, if Lord Fire Pill is so powerful that he is blinded and dares to make crooked moves, I can call my friends and easily find an excuse to kill him.

However, this is a slow skill. There are a large group of alchemists in the alchemy sect, so it may not be completed in a few months or a few years.

I also have to take some time to stay in Da Ai City for a while. Those members who participate in the Hope Project are also important customers of the Datong Association. They are also the basis of the Datong Association's influence on the local area, so we cannot neglect it.

In addition, the matter of adding sand to Xuanyang Sect cannot be stopped. "

Yu Xian's thoughts were spinning, and a simple plan outline appeared in his mind.

However, he was not happy. Instead, he sighed in disinterest.

"Why did it suddenly become so busy? Are the days of odd and even numbers gone forever?"

“Finally, the plan to annex Danfamen is best completed before the beast tide comes.

Otherwise, once the beast tide arrives, I will have to wait in the Great Love City for a long time. There will be a window period of several years or even nearly ten years. Who knows if there will be any accidents.

For example, the Luanhuo Demon King invited helpers and suddenly wiped out the alchemy sect. Then my hard work will be in vain. "

Yu Xian counted with his fingers and found that nearly forty years had passed since the last beast wave. According to past practice, it was only ten or twenty years.

Master Lin Lin saw Yu Xian suddenly stunned and stayed there for a while.

He waved his hand in front of Yu Xian's eyes and asked worriedly:

"Fellow Taoist, what's wrong with you? Is this putting you in trouble?"

Yu Xian came back to his senses and smiled.

"To be honest with Alchemist Lin, I am actually an alchemist as well.

Since we can't buy the Lingmi Dan at Lingdan Pavilion this time, why not stay here and exchange some alchemy techniques with many colleagues from the Alchemy Sect.

I'm just here for the first time and have no acquaintances, so I hit it off with Master Lin. I wonder if Master Lin can recommend me?

I, Zhou Bai, will definitely be grateful. "

Alchemist Lin laughed heartily: "It turns out that Fellow Daoist Zhou is a fellow alchemist, and our alchemy sect has always welcomed foreign alchemists to communicate with us.

However, I don’t know how good fellow Taoist Zhou is in alchemy, so I can recommend fellow practitioners to you based on his level. "

Yu Xian said with embarrassment: "Zhou can be promoted to the third level of low-level alchemy master, but it makes Master Lin laugh."

"Where is it?" Alchemist Lin said to himself: "Lin is only a third-level mid-level alchemist. There happens to be a seminar soon. How about Fellow Daoist Zhou attending it with me?"

Yu Xian said: "Of course it is possible. However, Alchemist Lin and Zhou are not very good at alchemy, but they are thirsty for knowledge.

So I'm very anxious. I wonder if Master Lin has any friends who can introduce him first. Even if he gives some spiritual stones and asks for advice, Zhou is willing to do so. "

Under normal circumstances, Master Lin would have suspected that Yu Xian had an ulterior motive by now.

But at this moment, in his eyes, Daoyou Zhou was a complete seeker. Not only did he not feel offended by the slight presumptuousness, he saw the shining point.

So he promised with a serious face:

"Lin asked himself that he still has some connections, so he will definitely handle this matter for fellow Taoist Zhou. What about tomorrow? Lin will contact his friends today."

Yu Xian cupped his hands and thanked him: "I'm sorry to trouble you, Master Lin."

"Haha, we are all friends. It's just a little effort and nothing worth mentioning."

Master Lin was very happy and felt that he had found a close friend today.

Yu Xian smiled back.

The first step to conquer the Dan method has begun.
