Best Ascension

Chapter 204 Blood Demon Sect
The owner of the Hongguang Building is a burly old man with pale skin but a rosy face.

After he sensed the bloody light that Zhao Sheng deliberately released, he immediately felt relieved, and laughed loudly: "It turns out that he is a fellow! I, Hong Yuanliang, dare to ask You Gao's name."

"Just call me Daoist Longli." Zhao Sheng said calmly.

The burly old man didn't care, nine out of ten immortal cultivators who dared to come to his place would not give their real names, as long as they had a name, they were all guests anyway.

After all, their Blood Demon Sect is famous for "teaching without discrimination" and "don't ask where the heroes come from".

As long as you have practiced the "Blood Soul Sutra", you are a like-minded fellow Taoist.

"Fellow Daoist Longli, do you need blood essence orbs when you come to Hongguang Building? Or molten blood charms?
To tell you the truth, fellow daoists, a batch of fresh goods has just arrived in this building recently, I guarantee your satisfaction. "

Zhao Sheng knew from his previous life that "Blood Soul Sutra" is an extremely evil martial art, which is characterized by exchanging lifespan for cultivation, and the speed of improvement is several times faster than usual.

However, its aftermath is also very obvious.

The most obvious disadvantage is that to quickly improve one's cultivation level requires a large amount of blood essence to be transformed into spiritual power.

But the most insidious and frightening aftermath is that when you are promoted to the Foundation Establishment Realm, once you die, not only will your soul not be able to reincarnate, but it will also be transformed into a blood elixir, and eventually become food for blood demons.

Zhao Sheng didn't know much about the Gorefiend. He probably knew that it was responsible for the disaster of the Gorefiend 300 years ago.

It is rumored that the blood demon is not a cultivator, but a strange creature.It may come from the upper world, and has the property of being almost immortal.

Of course, these are just rumors, and no one can confirm them.

But one thing is certain.

The Blood Demon Sect has a very bad reputation in the superstructure of the world of cultivating immortals.

Every year, countless immortal cultivators try to practice the "Blood Soul Sutra" for various reasons.

After tasting the sweetness, these people will flock to it.

The pleasure of cultivating and improving is no less than taking drugs. Once you try it, you often can't extricate yourself.

This is also one of the important reasons why the Blood Demon Sect revived within a short period of time after being wiped out several times.

Zhao Sheng waved his hand, "There is no need for blood essence beads and molten blood talismans. I need a few thousand-grained star algae fruits, are there any in stock in Hongguanglou?"

The burly old man flashed his face when he heard the words, and then said with a pleasant smile: "Fellow Daoist Longli, this thousand-grained star algae fruit is an extremely rare item. It is monopolized by those sects and families, and it is rarely circulated in the market. I would like to ask, Fellow Daoist wants to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill."

The old man said so much, the last sentence is the key point.

Of course, Zhao Sheng dared to come here, so he didn't mean to hide.

"Ok!"

"Really! Can Fellow Daoist show you the proof?"

After listening, the burly old man stood up abruptly, and asked another question out of composure.

"I'm never joking!" Zhao Sheng smiled slightly, took out a first-rank alchemist jade card from the Alchemist Association, and waved it in front of the old man.

When the burly old man saw the token of the alchemist, his face showed joy, and he excitedly approached Zhao Sheng with a fawning expression on his face.

"That's great! Fellow Daoist Longli, you don't know. This building happens to have three thousand-grained star algae fruits in our collection. If you want, this building will not charge you, and I will give it to you directly. As long as you agree to one A small condition."

The old man's move was also a bet that the other party would not use this to trick him.

"What is the condition, please tell me!" Zhao Sheng remained calm on the surface, but his heart was like a mirror, and he immediately guessed the condition the other party wanted to say.

"Fellow Daoist, if you have refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, can you sell it to me in Hongguang Building? Not only can we buy it at a high price, but we will continue to provide Qianwen Xingzao Fruit as much as possible, and the price is guaranteed to be the lowest."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Zhao Sheng thought that it was as expected.

The Blood Demon Sect was rejected by the mainstream cultivating forces, like a mouse in the gutter, shouting to be beaten and killed.

Because of the characteristics of the "Blood Soul Sutra", the number of disciples of the Blood Demon Sect is large, and they have accumulated a large number of Qi Refining Dzogchen.

In order to prolong life, these Qi Refining Great Consummations are almost crazy to be promoted to Foundation Establishment. However, there are almost no traces of Foundation Establishment Pills on the market, and the amount of Foundation Establishment Pills that can be distributed in Zongli every year is too little, too little. The relationship between supply and demand Seriously out of balance.

It can be seen from this that when the burly old man heard that Zhao Sheng wanted to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, why he was so excited that he lost his composure.

This old man is also one of those "poor people"!

Seeing that Zhao Sheng was silent, the burly old man gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "One Foundation Establishment Pill is exchanged for five Thousand-grain Star Algae Fruits, and I will give you treasures worth at least [-] spirit stones. The treasures can be chosen by fellow Taoists. You If you are not satisfied, we can discuss it again. What do you think?"

Zhao Shengan estimated that there is no market for the thousand grain star algae fruit, and the average price of a single piece is around [-] spirit stones.

In other words, a Foundation Establishment Pill can sell at least [-] spirit stones in Hongguanglou.

But the real value cannot be calculated like this,

If Zhao Sheng were to collect the thousand grain star algae fruit by himself, too much energy would be wasted.

Only the blood demon sect, a big school of magic, has a channel to continuously supply a certain amount of thousand grain star algae fruit.

Saved the energy of collecting the main medicine of the foundation building pill, the time and cost saved by Zhao Sheng are far beyond what can be measured by a hundred thousand spirit stones.

Of course, trading Foundation Establishment Pills with the Blood Demon Sect is tantamount to seeking skins from tigers, and one must be extremely cautious.

Zhao Sheng had already made a sufficient disguise before coming, so he didn't expect his true face to be exposed for the time being.

But when he really refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, the situation after that would never be as easy as this.

After finishing speaking, the old man looked at the yellow-faced middle-aged Taoist in front of him anxiously, waiting for his answer.

Zhao Sheng knocked on the table, nodded and said: "Pindao agreed to this condition."

"Okay! Fellow Daoist Longli, wait a moment. Hong will come back as soon as he goes."

After finishing speaking, the old man turned and walked out of the private room with an excited expression.

After a while, he hurried back, holding a boxy wooden box in his hand.

The old man put the wooden box on the table in front of Zhao Sheng, and gently opened the lid.

It was covered with a layer of white brocade silk, and there were three round things under the brocade silk. At this moment, there was an aroma similar to apple fragrance emanating from the box.

"Fellow Daoist, please look!"

The burly old man said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to uncover the brocade silk.

Zhao Sheng took a closer look and saw three maroon fruits the size of eggs lying in the box with a smooth and hairless surface.

As the brocade silk was removed, the aroma of the fruit became more fragrant, clearing the mind and speeding up thinking by three points.

This jujube red fruit is the famous Thousand Star Algae Fruit in the Broken Star Sea.

Regardless of its ugly appearance, when you cut it open, you can see that the layers of crystallized flesh are as clear as a mille-feuille cake, and the core is as transparent as a diamond, containing the essence of heaven and earth.

Snapped!
Zhao Sheng closed the lid with one hand, and with a satisfied smile on his face, he nodded at the old man.

"That's right, it's indeed the Thousand Veins Star Algae Fruit!"

"Fellow daoist is satisfied, as long as fellow daoist is satisfied. This old man says something bold. In case fellow daoist fails this time, just come to my Hongguang Tower. I am willing to provide fellow daoist with three more thousand-grained star algae fruits at a [-]% discount."

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

Zhao Sheng understood what he meant. Even if Hongguanglou was willing to strongly support him in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, there was a certain limit.

If he fails too many times without living up to expectations, then Hongguanglou will have to deal with business.

Zhao Sheng put the wooden box back into the storage bag, stood up, bowed his hands to the old man, and said to himself: "Three pieces are not enough, I will come again next time, I hope shopkeeper Hong can provide at least five star algae fruits. Please do one thing."

Seeing the confident look of the other party, the burly old man couldn't help adding three points of confidence, so he solemnly said: "Daoist Longli, please tell me! As long as the old man can do it, he will never be vague."

"Pindao needs a lot of one-yuan heavy water. I hope Hongguanglou can find it for me as soon as possible. The price is by no means a problem."

"One yuan of heavy water?!" The old man repeated it thoughtfully, and then decisively agreed:
"No problem! Even if the old man puts on an old face, he will let fellow daoists get what they want."

"Okay! Pindao remembers your words. After the thing is done, there must be a reward!"

……

After leaving the Hongguang Building, Zhao Sheng didn't go anywhere, and flew directly away from Bairi Island.

After flying dozens of miles, it plunged into the sea.

When he appeared again in Danhuofang, he had already returned to Zhao Chonghe's respectable appearance
Well, he joined the Spring and Autumn League with the name of Zhao Chonghe from his previous life.

Russia,
Zhao Sheng came to the Precious Medicine Pavilion.

At this time, the front of the huge Zhenyao Pavilion was very deserted, there were few cars and horses, there were only two or three customers in the store, and most of the staff looked weak, with panic and uneasiness in their eyes from time to time.

As soon as Zhao Sheng entered the door, he was recognized by the staff.

A man with quick hands and feet came forward immediately, while someone else ran to the backyard and informed the shopkeeper.

Later, Zhao Sheng saw the frowning Jin Dancheng.

Zhao Sheng didn't say much, but just comforted the other party a few words, saying that if he persisted for another month, things would definitely turn around.

Then, he took a batch of elixir from the medicine storehouse, left behind most of the elixirs he had refined in the past few years, and then drifted away.

……

More than 1000 miles west of Jiuzhen Island, there is a seabed of four thousand feet.

In the deepest part of a narrow, tortuous and deep seabed cave, a large grotto with a diameter of more than 20 feet has been opened up.

An extremely huge jade shell filled the entire grotto, and the surface of the shell shone with dazzling white light.

Beifu Dongtian, alchemy room.

Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged, waved and threw out the Nine Dragon Cauldron,

The Nine Dragon Cauldron swelled to the height of a person, and quickly flew down to the obsidian platform three feet away.

Zhao Sheng released his consciousness and enveloped the Nine Dragon Cauldron.

Played a spell, and the consciousness moved.

I saw a golden dragon floating on the surface of the Nine Dragon Cauldron. After swimming around the surface of the tripod for a few laps, the dragon submerged under the tripod.

suddenly,

A ball of golden flame suddenly ignited under the Nine Dragon Cauldron, and the flames flooded under the Dan Cauldron.

After activating the Nine Dragon Cauldron, Zhao Sheng didn't care about him, but waved his hand, and there were a lot of wooden boxes, bottles, jade pots, porcelain jars and so on in front of him.

Qianwen Zhuji Dan uses Qianwen star algae fruit as the main medicine, nearly 80 kinds of auxiliary medicines, and more than [-] kinds of other medicines.

The Qianwen Foundation Building Pill is a second-order panacea, but it is very difficult to refine, and there is no room for mistakes.

It has been almost ten years since Zhao Sheng obtained the Dan Fang.

In the past ten years, he has deduced countless times all the steps of refining the foundation building pill.

Apart from the main medicine, he even concocted a lot of auxiliary medicines by himself.

Finally, select the best from the best, and select the batches with the best quality.

This time he had obtained three Thousand Grain Star Algae Fruits, and he had already set a minimum goal, which was to make at least one Foundation Establishment Pill.

Anyway, after all, Zhao Sheng has been refining the panacea for nearly ten years now, and he is already a first-tier alchemist who has experienced many battles.

Whether it is experience, vision, or techniques, they are far beyond the comparison of ordinary alchemists, plus they have talents to help and ten years of continuous research.

He also has some experience and insights in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill. Zhao Sheng is certain that he can achieve his goal. I dare not say that the success rate is [-]%. The probability of [-]% or [-]% can still be guaranteed.
Zhao Sheng knew very well that this success rate was enough for him.

Anyway, there was plenty of time, so Zhao Sheng didn't rush to start alchemy, but took out the Jade Slip of the Foundation Establishment Pill, and combed the alchemy formula, refining techniques and alchemy steps several times.

After confirming that he was familiar with it by heart, he refined several furnaces of water elixirs to get familiar with the texture and to ensure that he would not make mistakes due to raw hands when refining alchemy.

In the blink of an eye, the next day, Zhao Sheng quietly closed his eyes and rested his mind, adjusting his state.

At this moment, besides the elixir for refining the foundation pill, there is also a row of black, white, blue, red, yellow and five-color elixir bottles in front of him. Pills and other medicines that restore or enhance spiritual consciousness.

These elixirs are very useful, and Zhao Sheng can use the bullet time a few more times at critical times.

I don't know how long it has passed, but the Nine Dragon Cauldron has been warmed up by the burning gold spirit flame to the best condition.

After Zhao Sheng recited the steps of refining the Foundation Establishment Pill in his heart, he suddenly opened his eyes, and the divine light in them flashed.

As the thousand-grain star algae fruit flew into the alchemy, the foundation building pill officially began to be refined.

Different from other types of Foundation Establishment Pills, the Qianwen Foundation Establishment Pill has to be refined from the very beginning, and the main medicine for Foundation Establishment is required.

The key to this pill is the combination of "boiling" and "melting".It is necessary to ensure that the star algae fruit core is not boiled, and it is also necessary to ensure that the medicinal power of the star algae fruit pulp is completely "boiled".

At the same time, with the fruit core as the core of the panacea, the pill liquid refined from the auxiliary medicine and the main medicine is integrated with the fruit core, and there should be no conflict of medicinal properties during the period.Finally, the condensed pill was released.

The whole alchemy process is very simple, but the refining time is as long as seven days, and the steps are more than [-] steps, which is more than a hundred times more complicated than the mere four steps of the water spirit pill.

For an alchemist with a weaker talent, let alone give him three copies of the Foundation Establishment Pill, even if he was given ten copies, he would still not be able to refine a single Foundation Establishment Pill.

There is a saying in the world of alchemy: Every alchemist who refines the foundation pill has the potential to become a third-rank alchemist.

"Add the spirit blood of the dragon and python first, and calcine it to purify it!"

Zhao Sheng punched out one after another pill formula, and suddenly a bright red blood light flew out of the porcelain pot in front of him, and flew into the cauldron furnace.

With a movement of the divine mind, the flames of the Burning Gold Spiritual Flame suddenly increased by five points, and the spiritual flame soared and engulfed the Nine Dragon Cauldron.

"Add another one or two qianhai ganoderma powder, and then a jade glutinous rice leaf, wait for half an hour, then add..."

Zhao Sheng recited the alchemy steps silently in his heart, without any hesitation in the movements of his hands, as if he had refined them countless times, and his techniques were very proficient.

Establishing Foundation Pill is really difficult to refine, even though Zhao Sheng had made sufficient preparations before, there was no mistake or lag in the technique and steps.

But when he added the No.12 supplementary drug Shi Lingzhi, he didn't control the heat well. Fortunately, he started the bullet time in time, and before the alchemy failed, he removed part of the "impurities" in the alchemy, and then he managed to refine it.

It was the first time refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, and mistakes were inevitable.He didn't believe that he could succeed once again.

For the first time, let alone whether it is successful or not, the most important thing is to go through the entire alchemy process as much as possible.
