Cultivation is just so scientific!

Chapter 1091: Chapter 592: Guest Elder

A few days later, Du Lei received a message from Li Yuanba to go to his cave residence.

The other Nascent Soul sword cultivators of the team came along as well. There wasn’t much to do lately, and they were curious about Li Yuanba’s alchemy skills.

In the main hall of the cave residence, Li Yuanba served spiritual fruit and spiritual tea to the Nascent Soul sword cultivators.

”Du Lei, I hope I haven’t disgraced your expectations!” Li Yuanba said, handing a jade bottle to Du Lei.

Du Lei took the jade bottle, and as his divine sense entered the bottle, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

”Du Lei, what’s the matter? Is there a problem?” The female sword cultivator, Zhuo Xuan, couldn’t stand Du Lei’s expression and asked urgently.

”Yuan Ba, I didn’t expect your alchemy skills to be so advanced!” Du Lei ignored Zhuo Xuan and praised Li Yuanba instead.

Even though Yun Xiao had mentioned that Li Yuanba’s alchemy skills were not bad, he had not expected them to be this exceptional.

Inside the jade bottle in his hand, out of ten fourth-grade spirit pills, eight were mid-level fourth-grade spirit pills, and two were high-grade fourth-grade spirit pills.

Li Yuanba intentionally lowered his alchemy skill level; otherwise, all ten fourth-grade spirit pills would have been of high-grade quality.

But doing so would have been too attention-grabbing.

Yun Xiao and the other Nascent Soul sword cultivators were extremely curious, especially Zhuo Xuan, who had an urge to snatch the jade bottle from Du Lei to take a look.

”Yun Xiao, you should have a look too!” Du Lei handed the jade bottle to Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao took the jade bottle, scanned it with his divine sense, and his expression was equally impressive before he passed the bottle to Zhuo Xuan.

”Yuan Ba, your alchemy skills are much better than those who claim to be alchemy masters! From now on, we’ll come to you for alchemy!” Zhuo Xuan exclaimed.

Before long, all the Nascent Soul sword cultivators had seen the fourth-grade spirit pills inside the jade bottle, and smiles appeared on their faces.

Now that someone in their team had such alchemy skills, they could ask Li Yuanba to refine pills whenever they acquired fourth-grade spiritual medicine, maximizing its use.

”Yun Xiao, can I set my alchemy fee as a fourth-grade flying sword containing sword intent?” Li Yuanba asked Yun Xiao with a plan already in mind.

”Of course, no problem. We sword cultivators focus only on our lifebound flying swords; nurturing a fourth-grade flying sword isn’t difficult!” Yun Xiao understood Li Yuanba’s intention and agreed after a moment’s consideration.

Yun Xiao strongly supported this idea, as it ultimately aimed to enhance the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak.’

The stronger the Ten Thousand Sword Peak, the better it is not only for Li Yuanba but also for their team.

The greatest weakness of sword cultivators is area attacks; even using secret techniques to split sword light, the attack range is limited.

A treasure like ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak,’ which releases ten thousand flying swords in an attack, compensates for the team’s lack of range attacks.

More importantly, the power unleashed by the ’Ten Thousand Sword Peak’ is enough to easily suppress multiple Nascent Soul Early Stage practitioners simultaneously.

Every enhancement of the Ten Thousand Sword Peak’s power equates to an increase in the team’s combat power.

”I don’t intend to refine pills for outsiders; I will only accept alchemy fees in the form of fourth-grade flying swords containing sword intent, for our sect’s sword cultivators. Please help spread the word!” Li Yuanba said with a smile.

”First, help me refine pills, and then I’ll grant you an extra fourth-grade flying sword; I have quite a collection of fourth-grade flying swords!” Zhuo Xuan, worried about being overlooked, quickly added.

”Zhuo Xuan, Yuan Ba will definitely prioritize the team, so there’s no need to rush. Those with fourth-grade spiritual medicine should hand it over to Yuan Ba for pill refinement. We must follow the rules and ensure the fee is paid. Moreover, help Yuan Ba contact fellow sword cultivators to expand his alchemy business!” Yun Xiao gestured with his hand.

The Nascent Soul sword cultivators, having experienced multiple sect destructions, all had some fourth-grade spiritual medicine stockpiled. They took out their fourth-grade spiritual medicine and booked pill refining services with Li Yuanba.

They also promised to help Li Yuanba find more alchemy clients. After all, they grew up within the ’Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion,’ and their networks were incomparable to Li Yuanba’s.

In the following days, Li Yuanba began his alchemy endeavors.

Due to the fact that his ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’ wasn’t a fire-based cultivation method, his ’Six Yang Spirit Fire’ couldn’t enhance normally.

However, he had a way to elevate the ’Six Yang Spirit Fire.’ He had tried it during solitary trips outside; he could easily shift into a corpse refining state without facing another heavenly tribulation.

Whenever the ’Six Yang Spirit Fire’ was overly depleted, he would set up a Corpse Refining Array in the cave, enter a corpse refining state, and step into the array.

At this moment, Li Yuanba was seated within the Corpse Refining Array, his entire body golden, in the form of a Golden Corpse.

His Golden Corpse form was no different from an ordinary person, except for the golden skin. This was because the Taiji Dao Body automatically balanced the realm of the Golden Corpse to match his human state realm.

His human state realm was in the Nascent Soul Early Stage, stabilized after nearly two years of cultivation.

This allowed his Golden Corpse state to stabilize equally, making his Golden Corpse form appear human-like.

He hadn’t tested the combat strength of his Golden Corpse state, but it was certain that it couldn’t match that of the Golden Corpse Black Shield.

This was due to the relatively low level of corpse refining cultivation method he practiced. The ’Evil Corpse Spirit Record’ was a corpse refining method obtained on the Beishu Continent.
