Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1113: Chapter 438: Domineering Greed, Rumors Mislead Me! (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

He Lianyun and his three companions had undoubtedly spent a long time preparing for today’s meeting!

This was not mere speculation without cause.

From the delivery of the invitation to providing the pill formula now.

Every step in between had been deliberate and calculated.

Just like when they first started, the three great cultivators simultaneously pressured Luo Chen, clearly to gauge his strength.

Moreover, the selection of the pill refiner to concoct this pill must have been after meticulous consideration before they approached Luo Chen.

The pill refiners of the great sects might possess higher skills in pill refinement techniques, such as Fu Jiusheng, who definitely knew some third-order pill refiners.

But they dared not seek help.

The reason was simple, they had nothing to offer that could impress the other party, and at the same time, their pill formulas could become targets of envy.

By comparison, Luo Chen’s fame in pill refinement was well-known, and he himself had a core formation requirement.

Without needing any additional conditions, Luo Chen would be interested on his own.

Lastly!

It was the preparation of the various materials listed above.

Luo Chen looked at the four people with a puzzled expression, ”Can you really gather all these materials?”

Pointing at the bamboo slips, he seriously said, ”The ingredients required for this Nether Origin Pill are not ordinary items, even if I were to purchase them myself, it would likely take hundreds of years to collect them all.”

However, to this, He Lianyun appeared confident.

”Friend, perhaps you underestimate me,” he said.

”Although the Lianyun Commercial Alliance has declined, its operations over the past hundred years are solid. Of the materials listed, I can produce sixty percent right now.”

”As for the remaining forty percent, give me a few years, and I can gather most of them.”

Luo Chen’s eyebrows raised, having forgotten this detail.

The business of the Lianyun Commercial Alliance was precisely this—trading resources from the north to the south.

Not to mention other things, just the branch in The Great River District alone collected countless treasures produced from the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains every year.

But!

”What about these three most important primary materials?”

Those three, even if Luo Chen himself made the effort, couldn’t collect a single one.

Unexpectedly, He Lianyun stated directly, ”Of the three primary materials, the most expensive and most scarce one—the Blue Thunder Flower—is already in our possession.”

”Oh?”

He Lianyun gestured to Rogue Cultivator Xiao.

”Friend Xiao obtained a complete Blue Thunder Flower in the Divine Transformation Relics, which is enough to be used in the refinement of the Nether Origin Pill more than a dozen times.”

Luo Chen looked toward Rogue Cultivator Xiao.

Since they had started discussing the matter at hand, this person hadn’t uttered a single word, even more silent than Fu Jiusheng.

Under Luo Chen’s gaze, Rogue Cultivator Xiao nodded solemnly.

Luo Chen pursed his lips, ”Then what about the other two primary materials? How shall we seek them?”

This time, all four sets of eyes turned towards Luo Chen simultaneously.

Luo Chen’s brow furrowed.

”What does this mean? Didn’t you say that you could gather them?”

He Lianyun smiled faintly, ”Friend, have a look at this name, Tianshan Yang-Repleshing Water, does it not sound familiar to you?”

”Of course, it’s familiar, isn’t it a first-order spirit medicine Yang... Tianshan?” Luo Chen blurted out in surprise, ”Could it be that Ice Castle produces this item?”

He Lianyun nodded, speaking in a voice tinged with the weight of years, ”This is what the younger generation such as yourself doesn’t know. The Ice Castle is located in the poorest region of the Yu Ding Realm, and yet it still chooses disciples, most of whom are female cultivators. Under such conditions, it managed to produce nine—no, now ten—Golden Core cultivators! Do you wonder why?”

While Luo Chen was deep in thought.

He Lianyun waved his hand vigorously and declared, ”Rumors say that the Ice Castle is rich in Tianshan Yang-Repleshing Water, which combined with the sect’s core formation secret technique, has allowed them to stubbornly cultivate ten Golden Core Cultivators. The relationship between Friend Dan Chenzi and the Ice Castle...”

At this point, Luo Chen completely understood.

They were placing their hope on him to acquire this primary material, the Tianshan Yang-Repleshing Water!

Indeed!

Given Luo Chen’s relationship with the Ice Castle, if he personally requested a portion of Tianshan Yang-Repleshing Water, it wouldn’t be difficult at all.

After all, Supreme Elder Cang Long had said before, if not for the unsuitability of his physique, she would have even imparted the Ice Castle’s unique core formation secret technique to Luo Chen for his use.

Having made up his mind, Luo Chen shifted his focus to the last primary material.

This time, before he could speak.

Fu Jiusheng spoke up directly.

”The Nine-patterned Snake Drool Fruit, I know where it is!”

”The only thing we need to consider is how to pick it,” he stated, his eyes blazing as he looked at Luo Chen, ”From the way the name of the pill master echoes around, the mastery of your Simplicity Hand in pill technique must be quite profound, right?”

Luo Chen, with a wave of his sleeve.

His lips slightly turning up, he smiled without a word.

Lady You Sha contributed teasingly, ”Friend Fu, perhaps you don’t know, during the Qingdan Seed Cultivator Battle, Dan Chenzi’s pill technique was so amazingly skillful that even the third-order pill refiners of the Pill Valley held him in high regard. The mere Simplicity Hand, in the vast Yu Ding Realm, he’s probably the first, and no one would dare to claim they are the second.”

Upon hearing this, a look of admiration flashed through Fu Jiusheng’s eyes.

Even though he had already known this information.

Seeing Luo Chen’s confidence still brought reassurance to his heart.

Between heaven and earth, there are countless spirit medicines and immortal grasses.

Many herbs have special growth habits.

Like the Nine-patterned Snake Drool Fruit, besides requiring a special environment for growth, it also has the characteristics of rotting when picked, and melting upon touching the ground.

It must not exceed one hour from being plucked to being used in a pill, otherwise, it will turn into deadly poison!

Let alone using it for pill refinement, even touching it could cause a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator to perish instantly.

Furthermore, even the poisonous fruit cannot be stored for too long.

Only with a pill refiner who has mastered the Simplicity Hand to a very high level can the fruit be picked and used on the spot.

Now, there was only one issue left to resolve.
