Donned in black clothing and a black veil mask, Luo Chen stepped through the gate, cautiously looking back.

In the dark and quiet alley, there was complete silence.

When Luo Chen reached the gate, he stood there silently for a while.

“Nobody’s following me.”

Luo Chen made sure that he hadn’t been followed home and let out a sigh of relief.

Lower Order Cultivators have limited concealment techniques, and tracking methods are even more scarce, often requiring the use of talisman magic tools.

Therefore, once one is careful enough, it is easy to detect if anyone is trailing. Since he had already caught the attention of the Great Lake Gang, Luo Chen decided to be extra cautious when coming and going from then on. just as he turned around, Luo Chen abruptly stiffened, his hair standing on end.

In the corner of the wall, a figure in white clothes adorned with waist-length hair stood quietly.

Luo Chen swallowed nervously, “Could it be a ghost?

But shortly after, he relaxed.

It’s a person!

“Why haven’t they sprouted even after two months?”

The woman in white seemed to be talking to herself.

“Could the Herb Harvester have given me fake Purple Sunflower Seeds?

“Cough, cough.”

A cough sounded from the entrance, and the woman turned around.

“Friend Luo Chen?”

“Friend Fu Xiuxiu?”

“Hm.”

Turns out it was his neighbor from the East Wing Room!

Luo Chen approached her and asked curiously, “What are you doing?” Fu Xiuxiu answered with frustration, “I bought Purple Sunflower seeds for one spirit stone and planted them two months ago. I expected to see seedlings when I returned home, but nothing’s sprouted.”

Luo Chen followed her gaze and looked at the corner suspiciously.

Isn’t this the spot where I usually practice the Fireball and Entanglement

Techniques?

Seeds?

He had replaced the soil and stones dozens of times already!

He chuckled awkwardly and answered, “Perhaps it’s because they don’t adapt to the environment!”

Fu Xiuxiu sighed, and could only nod helplessly.

“This place is heavy with Yin Energy, and many of the plants and flowers I plant don’t grow well. Plus, since I’m usually not home, they’ve nearly wilted.” Luo Chen blinked, “Is that so?”

“It should be. Usually, I should take them out more to get some sun,” said Fu

Xiuxiu with resignation.

Skipping that topic, she curiously glanced at Luo Chen’s attire.

“Friend Luo, what were you up to?”

“just call me Xiao Luo! Wearing these clothes is just a habit, I enjoy wearing

black, that’s it.”

Being called a friend by a Ninth Level Qi Refinement Cultivator felt uneasy for Luo Chen.

Seeing that Luo Chen didn’t want to elaborate, Fu Xiuxiu didn’t ask any further.

She glanced at the nightfall and invited Luo Chen.

“I rarely come home and I plan to invite you and the other neighbors for a meal, Xiao Luo, would you like to join?”

Someone’s offering dinner? What a great opportunity!

As such, he, Luo Chen, couldn t refuse!

Sitting on a children’s swing in the courtyard, Luo Chen, now in a fresh set of clothes, waited for Fu Xiuxiu’s dinner while pondering his next steps.

With the original material costing up to four hundred spirit stones, it was his most significant investment to date.

This time, failure was not an option!

Therefore, he needed to consider all aspects before refining the pill. The first was the new alchemy tool – the Purple Cloud Bronze Furnace.

The transition from using the Spirit Iron Pot to the Magic Tool Pill Furnace would undoubtedly lead to significant differences.

He had to familiarize himself with the Purple Cloud Bronze Furnace to avoid any errors during the refinement process that he couldn’t rectify in time. Next, there was the matter of handling the raw materials.

The former methods were no longer applicable.

The Spirit Iron Pot, being small and not heat-resistant, required a relatively small fire for refinement, meaning the process would be long.

In long-term refinement, the treatment of medicinal materials tended to be conservative.

But there were no such concerns with the Purple Cloud Bronze Furnace. Its magic tool grade could easily withstand high temperatures.

With this in mind, the methods for processing the raw materials could certainly be more daring.

Finally, there was the construction of the pill room.

Yes, Luo Chen planned to partition a room for pill refinement in the Reverse Room that he had rented.

The Purple Cloud Bronze Furnace took up a lot of space, and when it was necessary to burn wood, a special fire pit was required, lined with heat-insulating bricks beneath it to prevent heat loss.

The surrounding walls should preferably be made mainly of Cloud Sand Bricks, which were known for their excellent ventilation.

Otherwise, if the medicinal gas leaked out, it was possible to get poisoned and faint inside.

Thinking about all the tasks, one by one, Luo Chen was overwhelmed.

Looks like he was going to be busy from now on!

“Hei!”

A small figure suddenly jumped in front of him.

Luo Chen greeted somewhat helplessly, “Lady Xiao Ling, have you finished work?”

Isn’t that stating the obvious since she was already in front of him?

But, greetings in reality are often like this.

When eating, we say, “Are you eating?”

When getting off work, we say, “You’ve finished work?”

It’s annoying when, in a public toilet, if you meet a friend they say, “Are you pooping?”

Bullshit, what else could I be doing in a toilet stall!

Naturally, Bai Meiling couldn’t imagine that Luo Chen was having such random thoughts, she reached out her fair hand.

“What is it?” Luo Chen asked, puzzled.

“Where is the pill that you made? Let me see if it’s a Path of Demon Pill!”

“You really have a broad scope of concern!”

Bai Meiling put her hands on her hips, “As a Seventh Level Qi Refinement neighbour, can’t I show some concern?”

Dammit, he had been annoyed by people bragging about their cultivation level all his life!

Luo Chen took a deep breath and reluctantly took out a pill.

Bai Meiling curiously took it over, “Is this a Fasting Elixir? No, it’s a Fasting

Pill. The grade is decent, it’s Ascendant Grade.”

She observed Luo Chen for a while and couldn’t help nodding. “You’re quite impressive for a bottled gourd. It’s a pity. If you had the pill formula for the Fasting elixir. With a little practice, you could use it to make a living.”

Luo Chen initially planned to fool this woman and be done with it.

But after hearing her say this, he instantly became interested.

He always knew that the Fasting Elixir he refined was actually just a Fasting Pill.

Otherwise, why would a bottle of Fasting Pills, a total of fifty pills, sell for only one Lower Grade Spirit Stone? freewebn(o)vel

A legitimate Fasting Elixir, on the other hand, was no less than a First Order Qi Nurturing Pill.

Each bottle containing only ten pills, sold for one hundred Spirit Stones, that would indeed make a fortune!

If he could refine the actual Fasting Elixirs, wouldn’t he be rich?

“Do you have the pill formula for the Fasting Elixir?

in response to Luo Chen’s eager eyes, Bai Meiling shrugged her shoulders. “I absolutely don’t! These pill formulas are controlled by the Great Sects, how could I possibly have them.”

Luo Chen rolled his eyes, why did she even mention it then.

However, he wasn’t too disappointed.

Or rather, he had never really held any great expectations for the pill formula of these mainstream elixirs.

Not just in The Great River District, but even in the whole Yu Ding Realm, and the Six Realms of the Far East, the pill formula for mainstream elixirs is strictly controlled.

Any slight leak would have the Sect Cultivators using various means to retrieve it.

Whether it is buying them outright, forcibly seizing them, or even recruiting Pill Refiners capable of making mainstream elixirs.

Regarding this, Luo Chen’s view was “Monopolistic dogs, they won’t die a good death!”

He could actually understand the practises of these sects.

The resources of this world were extremely abundant. Not just the regions where humans lived, but also the wilderness inhabited by Demon Beasts, had countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

When the raw materials could not be restricted, controlling the pill formula became the best means.

in this way, mainstream elixirs could only be refined, distributed, and sold by the sects.

With this, the Great Sects could ensure that their profits were much higher than those of the Immortal Cultivation Clans and Rogue Cultivators.

If it weren’t for this, where would the Great Sects get the great benefits to freely distribute magic tools, robes, and, even valuable storage bags to their disciples.

“Xiao Ling, Xiao Luo, it’s time to eat.”

At the sound of a gentle voice, Luo Chen quickly went into the East Wing Room, which was Xiu Xiu’s home.

Bai Meiling followed him, but after walking a few steps, she felt something was off.

“Can a Fire Dog Tail be used to make a Fasting Pill?”
