The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Cao Rui can have such a high income, with Sun Ming's concession, more is based on the premise that Cao Rui's Huanglong Pill refining rate is high and the quality is high.

For another alchemist, there is a loss rate after failure, and the quality of the other pill is not so high. The repurchase price given by Danlingbao Pavilion is at most ten spirit stones or even lower.

Naturally, the income is very different from Cao Rui.

For Sun Ming, making money is more than enough. His main task is to maintain the image of Danlingbao Pavilion that the products must be high-quality pills.

Sun Ming would rather make less money to buy back Cao Rui's high-quality Huanglong Pills, and is unwilling to buy back the inferior Huanglong Pills refined by those low-level alchemists.

These incomes of Cao Rui have been arranged.

On the one hand, it is used to purchase spiritual medicines for the experiment of new pill formulas. After the experiment of the pill formula is completed, Cao Rui will completely exchange the spiritual stones for the spiritual medicine materials of the new pills, and refine new spiritual pills to quickly improve his strength.

More than 10,000 spiritual stones a month.

This is just the income from a few hours of time. Cao Rui's income is already very exaggerated.

Not many alchemists can earn more than Cao Rui.

Even those alchemists in the foundation-building period.

Because the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in the Yunzhou cultivation world is exhausted, there are few high-level cultivators, and most of the cultivators are concentrated in the Qi Refining period. The most consumed are pills such as Lingyuan Pills and Huanglong Pills.

Assuming that Cao Rui refines cultivation pills for the foundation-building period, then the market is not enough, and no matter how many pills he refines, he cannot make a profit.

Not to mention the cultivation pills in the foundation-building period, the spiritual medicines are more expensive and more difficult to collect.

"Yes." Cao Rui nodded and agreed to this distribution plan.

Sun Ming smiled happily: "Then it's settled."

"Old Cao, starting tomorrow, I will deliver the materials of the Yellow Dragon Pill to your house."

"No problem." Cao Rui nodded in agreement.

Cao Rui now lives in the loft base of the Yunshui Sect. This location is located in the center of the market town, with a connection point to the gathering spirit formation, and the spiritual energy in the practice room is full.

Of course, the previous loft has been destroyed by Cao Rui's spirit beast Black Feather.

The current building has been changed into a seven-story practice tower. Cao Rui's daily practice place is the seventh floor of the practice tower.

So, Cao Rui bid farewell to Sun Ming and returned to his own practice tower.

When Cao Rui returned to the seventh floor of the practice tower, there was already a figure there.

The seventh floor of the practice tower, usually, only two people in the entire market are qualified to enter this place.

One of them is Cao Rui himself, and the other is the foundation building elder Ye Yunyin.

This elder in charge of the spiritual mine affairs, if there is no important matter, will choose to practice in seclusion in the training tower here most of the time.

As for the spiritual mine, there is nothing to supervise the mining process.

As long as the monthly output is in line with expectations, Ye Yunyin only needs to go there once a month to collect the mined spiritual stones.

Apart from this, there is nothing else worth coveting in the spiritual stone mine.

After all, the spiritual stone mine itself is just a large piece of ore, which must be mined by the cultivators with time and energy before it can be finally transformed into a real spiritual stone.

The spiritual stone mine is so large that no one can move it away casually.

After Ye Yunyin nodded slightly to Cao Rui, he continued to close his eyes and rest, concentrating on practicing magic power.

He was at the critical moment of breaking through the fourth level of the foundation-building period, and seemed to have hit a bottleneck. He had to seize the time to comprehend every day.

Cao Rui took the ancient pill recipe and continued to study it carefully to find out the gaps.

The first-level cultivation elixir on this ancient pill recipe is called Snow Lotus Pill.

The main elixir for refining the Snow Spirit Pill is the Ice Heart Snow Lotus of several years.

The Ice Heart Snow Lotus is extremely rare in Yunzhou and is close to extinction. Therefore, the first step for Cao Rui to transform this ancient pill recipe is to find a substitute for the Ice Heart Snow Lotus.

After reading the Snow Lotus Pill recipe, Cao Rui made a very bold but well-reasoned decision with his rich knowledge of pills and in-depth understanding of the characteristics of herbs - changing the "Snow Lotus Pill" to "Fire Lotus Pill"!

In the southwestern part of Yunzhou, there is a very special and precious fire-attributed spiritual medicine, called the Lava Red Lotus.

Lava Red Lotus is the main substitute that Cao Rui chose to replace the Ice Heart Snow Lotus!

This unique spiritual medicine will only grow naturally in the extremely hot crater, absorbing the majestic and hot energy in the crater.

Although there are not many Tianshan mountains where snow lotus grows in Yunzhou, there are many active volcanoes.

This makes the Yunzhou Xiuxian world have a high degree of understanding of Lava Red Lotus, and has accumulated rich planting experience and knowledge.

If the monks skillfully use magic to promote the birth of a year-old Lava Red Lotus, it only takes a dozen years to successfully grow.

In addition, the monks' spiritual medicine garden adopts a large-scale planting method, so the market price of the year-old Lava Red Lotus is not too outrageous.

Next, Cao Rui replaced the other auxiliary medicines in the recipe one by one, and chose some more common spiritual medicines in Yunzhou.

Although these spiritual medicines are different from those in the original recipe, they can still exert similar medicinal effects through clever matching and adjustment.

So far, shortly after the auction ended, Cao Rui successfully developed a new recipe for the recipe in a short period of time - "Fire Lotus Pill".

Compared with the original Snow Lotus Pill, this new recipe can be said to have undergone earth-shaking changes.

It not only changes the medicine, but also changes the types of most auxiliary medicines. The most important thing is that the properties of the entire pill formula are completely tampered with.

Such changes are undoubtedly very bold.

However, Cao Rui's changes are not based on his imagination, but are based on his experience of absorbing experience beads, his deep understanding and unique insights into the properties of spiritual medicines.

Cao Rui has now mastered and cultivated all the 0-level pill formulas in the Alchemy Institute to perfection, and the spiritual medicine knowledge he has obtained is extremely exaggerated.

He has a lot of experience and knowledge in alchemy as support in his mind.

Therefore, there is this bold transformation.

According to Cao Rui's estimate, there are about seven or eight possibilities to refine the Fire Lotus Pill on the new pill formula.

Of course, the actual situation may be affected by various factors, and it is necessary to constantly change the scale and experiment, which takes a long time.

However, Cao Rui is only twenty years old this year, and he has enough time to spend.

Cao Rui calculated that if he developed it according to his own plan, one portion of the spiritual medicine in this recipe could cost about 20 spiritual stones if the development was successful.

Relying on the Fire Lotus Pill to break through to the twelfth level of Qi Refining, the spiritual stones consumed were still within Cao Rui's tolerance.

Time came to the end of the day in the blink of an eye.

The inner disciples in charge of vigilance in the training tower sent a message that Sun Ming, the general manager of the Danlingbao Pavilion, was looking for him.

"Have the spiritual medicines finally arrived?"

Cao Rui came to the lobby on the first floor of the training tower and met Sun Ming.

"Old Cao, I have gathered all the spiritual medicines you want, a total of 30 portions, 100 spiritual stones, I will put them on your account first."

Cao Rui is now in the experimental stage, and the spiritual medicines are expected to be frequently replaced, so 30 portions of spiritual medicine materials are enough.

"Okay, please." Cao Rui took the storage bag containing the spiritual medicines.

"Old Cao, I wish you success in developing the new pill formula. I will leave first. If you need any spiritual medicine, please contact me at any time." After Sun Ming gave the spiritual medicine to Cao Rui, he did not bother Cao Rui for long and turned to leave.

Cao Rui watched Sun Ming leave, then took the storage bag and went to the alchemy room on the seventh floor of the cultivation tower.
