Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension

Chapter 203 Blood Demon Sect_2

But when he had actually refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, the situation thereafter would not be as relaxed.

The elderly man finished speaking and looked anxiously at the sallow-faced middle-aged Daoist in front of him, waiting for a response.

Zhao Sheng tapped on the table and nodded, "I accept these terms."

"Very well! Dragon Carp Taoist, please wait a moment. I will go and come right back."

Having said that, the old man turned around excitedly and walked out of the private room.

A moment later, he hurried back, carrying a square Sea Sunken Wood Box in his hands.

The elderly man placed the wood box on the table in front of Zhao Sheng and gently opened the lid.

It was covered with a layer of white silk brocade, and underneath the brocade were three round objects emitting a fragrance similar to that of apples.

"Taoist, please look!"

The burly old man said, smiling, as he lifted the brocade.

Zhao Sheng focused his eyes and saw three chicken egg-sized, smooth, hairless, date-red fruits lying in the box.

As the brocade was lifted, the fragrance from the fruits became even richer and more compelling, clearing the mind and speeding up one's thoughts by a fraction.

These date-red fruits were none other than the famous Thousand-Pattern Star Algae Fruit from the Shattered Star Sea.

Despite its unprepossessing appearance, when cut open, one could see layers upon layers of crystallized flesh like that of a layered cake, and the core was as transparent as a diamond, containing the essence of heaven and earth.

Clap!

Zhao Sheng closed the box with one hand, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to the old man.

"Yes, these are indeed Thousand-Pattern Star Algae Fruits!"

"I'm glad you're satisfied. I dare say boldly, in case you fail this time, just come to Red Light Tower. I'm willing to provide you with three more Thousand-Pattern Star Algae Fruits at half the price," the old man said.

This time, the old man did not mention the word 'free.'

Zhao Sheng understood the implication of his words. Even though Red Light Tower was willing to support him substantially in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, there was a limit to their support.

If he failed too many times, Red Light Tower would have to act officially.

Zhao Sheng put the wood box into his Storage Bag, stood up, and bowed to the old man, confidently saying, "Three fruits won't be enough. The next time I come, I hope Manager Hong can provide at least five Star Algae Fruits, and I also have another favor to ask of you."

Seeing his confident manner, the burly old man couldn't help but feel more reassured and thus stated solemnly, "Please speak, Dragon Carp Taoist! As long as it's within my capabilities, I will not be ambiguous."

"I need a large amount of Primordial Heavy Water. I hope Red Light Tower can find it for me as soon as possible. Price is absolutely not an issue."

"Primordial Heavy Water?!" After repeating the name thoughtfully, the old man decisively agreed:

"No problem! Even at the cost of my old face, I will ensure your wishes are fulfilled."

"Good! I'll remember this statement of yours. When the deed is done, there will certainly be a generous reward!"

...

After leaving the Red Light Tower, Zhao Sheng did not go anywhere else but directly flew away from Day Island.

After flying tens of miles, he plunged into the sea.

When he reappeared at Elixir Fire Square, he had already switched back to Zhao Chonghe's appearance.

Yes, he had used the name Zhao Chonghe from his previous life to join the Spring and Autumn Alliance.

Shortly thereafter,

Zhao Sheng arrived at the Treasure Medicine Pavilion.

The vast entrance of the Treasure Medicine Pavilion was quite deserted at this time, with sparse traffic and only two or three customers in the store, while most of the attendants appeared listless, occasionally showing anxious and uneasy looks in their eyes.

Upon entering, Zhao Sheng was recognized by the attendants.

A nimble attendant immediately came over to greet him while others ran to the back courtyard to inform the shopkeeper.

Shortly after, Zhao Sheng met with Jin Dancheng, who looked quite troubled.

Zhao Sheng did not say much but consoled him briefly, clarifying that there would definitely be a turnaround if they persisted for another month.

Then, he took a batch of Spiritual Medicine from the stock and, after leaving most of the Spirit Pills he had refined over the years, drifted away.

...

Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire

More than a thousand miles west of Nine Virtuous Isle, at a depth of four thousand feet under the sea.

A narrow and sinuous undersea cave at its deepest point had been turned into a large stone cavern with a diameter of over twenty feet.

A massive giant shell filled the entire cavern, its surface shining with dazzling white light.

Bei Mansion Cave Heaven, alchemy room.

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged, waving his hand to throw out the Nine Dragon Tripod.

The Nine Dragon Tripod expanded to more than a man's height and swiftly fell onto the obsidian platform three yards away.

Zhao Sheng released his Divine Sense, encompassing the Nine Dragon Tripod.

He cast a spell with his Divine Sense.

Suddenly, a golden dragon appeared on the surface of the Nine Dragon Tripod, circling around a few times before entering the base of the tripod.

In an instant,

a fierce golden-yellow fire erupted beneath the Nine Dragon Tripod, completely enveloping its base.

After initiating the Nine Dragon Tripod, Zhao Sheng did not attend to it immediately but waved his hand, causing a large array of wood boxes, bottles, jade bowls, and porcelain jars to appear in front of him.

The Thousand-Pattern Foundation Establishment Pill used Thousand-Pattern Star Algae Fruit as the main medicine, supplemented by nearly twenty kinds of secondary medicinal ingredients, and even more auxiliary ingredients totaling over eighty kinds.

The Thousand-Pattern Foundation Establishment Pill was a Second Order Spirit Pill, but its refining difficulty was very high and could not tolerate the slightest mistake.

Zhao Sheng had obtained the Elixir Recipe almost a decade ago.

During these ten years, he had repeatedly simulated the refining process of the Foundation Establishment Pill countless times.

He had personally prepared many of the secondary and auxiliary medicines.

From them, he had carefully chosen the batches of the highest quality.

Now that he had obtained three Thousand-Pattern Star Algae Fruits, he had set a minimum goal for himself to ensure that at least one Foundation Establishment Pill was refined.

After all, Zhao Sheng had been refining Spirit Pills for nearly a decade and was already an experienced First-rank Alchemist.
