"Senior Sister Meng, Master Jian, I have deep connections with Luanfeng Palace and Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion. Just tell me what's on your mind!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
On the Luanfeng Palace side, Yin Shilan is a disciple of the Luanfeng Palace, and the Luanfeng Palace also helped Yin Shilan to be promoted to a half-step great power, so this favor must be repaid.
As for the Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion, to the outside world, he and Li Yuanba are close friends, so the Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion is also considered to be one of their own.
Not to mention that Luanfeng Palace and Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion are allies of Wanshou Sect. With these multiple relationships, he can help with anything that is not particularly difficult.
"Junior Brother Li, I won't be polite then." Meng Jun heard his words and continued without hesitation: "Old Jian and I invited you here just to ask you to help us make the elixir!"
Li Shiming was slightly stunned when he heard the news.
Although he had not refined elixirs for the immortal cultivation world for more than a hundred years, he would not refuse if the Luanfeng Palace and Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion really came to him for help in refining elixirs.
Anyway, at his current level, even a great cultivator's elixir would be just like an ordinary elixir to him and would not require much time.
"Let someone contact the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect regarding the alchemy. I will find time to make it!" Li Shiming said with a smile and waved his hand.
"It's not the elixir of the great cultivator. Master Jian and I would like you to refine a fifth-grade elixir!" Seeing that Li Shiming had misunderstood, Meng Jun hurriedly explained.
"Fifth-grade elixir!" Li Shiming didn't expect that before he even made any contact, a powerful person would come to him and ask him to refine a fifth-grade elixir.
Only then did he understand why the two powerful men had invited him over instead of delivering the materials to him.
This is a fifth-grade alchemy material. Even if we have discussed it with him through remote communication, we still don't feel comfortable asking a monk to deliver the fifth-grade alchemy material to him.
During this period of time, their powerful clones had no time to take care of other things, so they could only ask Li Shiming to come over.
"We also know that refining a fifth-grade elixir takes a long time, so just ask for your reward!" Old Jian said from the side.
"I do have the conditions to refine a fifth-grade elixir, but I have never refined one before, so I cannot guarantee the quality of the refined fifth-grade elixir!" Li Shiming said after thinking for a while.
When Jian Lao and Meng Junda heard his words, they were not surprised but happy.
Listening to what Li Shiming said, the quality of the fifth-grade elixir cannot be guaranteed, which means that Li Shiming is very confident that he can refine the fifth-grade elixir.
It's not that these powerful people haven't learned alchemy, but alchemy is a skill that requires a lot of talent.
Even if a powerful person is in a cave and can do almost anything, when he is refining elixirs, the quality of low-level elixirs is better, but the quality of high-level elixirs is difficult to guarantee.
For a fifth-grade elixir of the same level, it would be a blessing if one out of three furnaces could succeed.
Think about it, only three fifth-grade spiritual medicines were obtained in three hundred years, which means that on average only one was obtained every hundred years.
If these fifth-grade elixirs were sent to the hands of ordinary powerful people for refining, it would take about three hundred years to refine one batch, and the quality of this batch could not be guaranteed.
But if Li Shiming really has the ability to refine the fifth-grade elixir, then at least the success rate of refining the elixir can be guaranteed.
The mighty Meng Jun and Old Jian did not believe in Li Shiming out of thin air. Before Li Shiming became a mighty man, he was the number one alchemy master in the world of immortal cultivation.
Even the immortal cultivation world regards Li Shiming's alchemy ability as being at a level far superior to that of other alchemy masters.
If the world of immortal cultivation did not add another realm above the master, perhaps Li Shiming would have been classified as a higher realm.
With Li Shiming's alchemy level, even if the fifth-grade elixir is more troublesome, the two great men both believe in Li Shiming's alchemy ability.
If Li Shiming cannot guarantee the success rate of the fifth-grade elixir, then it will be impossible for the world of immortal cultivation to find an alchemy master of a higher level.
"I need some half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials as payment for alchemy!" Li Shiming was not polite and put forward his request.
To know how difficult it is to refine a fifth-grade elixir, just look at how he refines a fifth-grade spiritual treasure.
Although refining a fifth-grade elixir is simpler than refining a fifth-grade spiritual treasure, once any spiritual object reaches the fifth grade, the difficulty of refining it will increase greatly.
He had met the prerequisites for refining the fifth-grade elixir: a fifth-grade elixir furnace and a fifth-grade spiritual fire.
"Half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials, it seems that you are planning to refine the fifth-grade 'Flying Yaksha'!" said Old Jian with a smile.
He and Meng Jun were not surprised at the conditions proposed by Li Shiming. Li Shiming was very knowledgeable in corpse refining and had even developed a half-step fifth-grade corpse refining skill.
His research on corpse refining alone is enough to establish an entire sect.
You should know that the strongest cultivator who normally appears in the world of immortal cultivation is only at the peak level.
But Li Shiming refined a half-step fifth-grade corpse, which raised the normal combat power to a higher level.
If it weren't for his current strength that could make all the powerful people in the entire cultivation world extremely wary, the ability he displayed might have brought him disaster.
"At present, I am only half a step away from the fifth-grade corpse refining materials. I don't need the rest of the spiritual objects for the time being!" Li Shiming knew how terrifying the background of these super powers was.
If it were him, it would not be easy to find the materials for half-step fifth-grade corpse refining, but if it were a super power, there would always be a way to obtain the materials for half-step fifth-grade corpse refining.
"Junior Brother Li, this is a bit difficult for me. Luanfeng Palace does not have any half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials!" Meng Jun said helplessly.
Li Shiming glanced at Meng Jun Da Neng. He couldn't tell whether Meng Jun Da Neng really didn't have it or was just trying to make excuses.
He frowned slightly. Refining the fifth-grade elixir would not have much impact on him. It would just take up his brain and the space in the computer room for at least three years.
During this period, the brain must monitor the alchemy furnace constantly and cannot make any mistakes in three years, otherwise the alchemy will fail.
Although his consumption is not that great, he doesn't want to be busy in vain.
For ordinary powerful people, the cost of refining a fifth-grade elixir is not small, which is why Old Jian said that the reward is up to you.
"It is indeed difficult to obtain half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials, but I know where to find half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials. In exchange for this information, I hope you can help refine five furnaces of fifth-grade elixirs. What do you think?" Old Sword said in a deep voice at this time.
After listening to what Master Jian said, Li Shiming began to think about it.
From what Old Jian said, the place with the half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials is definitely very dangerous.
Otherwise, Master Jian could have gone there by himself. Although Master Jian's real body could not go, the strength of his powerful clone was not weak.
"Okay, I'll refine five furnaces of fifth-grade elixirs in exchange for half-step fifth-grade corpse refining materials!" Li Shiming agreed to this condition without spending much time thinking.
For him, refining the fifth-grade elixir is a beneficial thing.
He would be willing to do it even if he didn't receive payment for refining the elixir, but as a master alchemist, it is impossible for him not to receive payment for refining the elixir.
This is the rule of alchemy. Even if he is a powerful person, as long as he is a master of alchemy, he must abide by this rule.
“This is the location of an ancient relic. It was originally discovered by a sword cultivator from Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion. He did not leave there alive and only passed on a little news. Later, Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion sent several more sword cultivators there, who also suffered huge losses. Finally, after confirming the situation of the ancient relic, they sealed the news!” Old Sword took out a jade slip and handed it to Li Shiming and explained.
Li Shiming took the jade slip and glanced at Meng Jun Da Neng. He found that there was nothing unusual on Meng Jun Da Neng's face. Instead, he seemed to be in a good mood after knowing that Li Shiming agreed to refine the elixir.
In his opinion, there must be some agreement between Meng Jun and Old Jian, and this agreement is none of his business. Anyway, the opportunity to refine five furnaces of fifth-grade elixirs is up to them to allocate.
"For some reason, that ancient relic became a land of the dead, and after a long time, high-level corpses and ghosts were born there, including a large number of half-step fifth-grade corpses and ghosts!" Old Jian recalled the scene in the ancient relic and said with a lingering fear on his face.
Li Shiming was also shocked. Li Shiming had refined a large number of half-step fifth-grade corpses, especially the Holy Spirits, which reached one hundred and thirty-three.
He knew the power of the Half-Step Fifth Grade Corpse Refiner. As long as one reached the Half-Step Fifth Grade realm, the Corpse Refiner would possess extremely powerful abilities in one aspect or even multiple aspects.
As a corpse refiner, the abilities it possesses are largely destructive.
It would be okay if there was only one Half-step Fifth Grade Refined Corpse, but if the number of Half-step Fifth Grade Refined Corpses increased, and with the cooperation of Half-step Fifth Grade Ghosts, even a powerful person would have a headache if they encountered it.
As for the inherited powerful beings in the world of immortal cultivation, their real bodies cannot possibly leave the cave heaven, as the cave heaven is tied to the mountain gate of the sect, so the powerful beings can only travel far away by their clones.
The powerful clone cannot deal with the large number of half-step fifth-grade refined corpses and half-step fifth-grade ghosts, especially the half-step fifth-grade ghosts, which pose a greater threat to the powerful clone.
"Is there 'Flying Yaksha' there?" Li Shiming asked.
If there really is a fifth-grade 'Flying Yaksha', then he needs to be extremely careful when entering that ancient ruins.
"We did not find the 'Flying Yaksha' after our exploration, but one thing is certain, being in that ancient relic, even the powerful ones cannot open the cave, and they cannot even call upon the energy of the cave!" Old Jian continued.
Li Shiming could imagine that some free and powerful person from Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion must have entered the ancient ruins and suffered losses as a result.
"Thank you, Master Jian. I will pay attention to it!" Li Shiming nodded.
"I don't want anything to happen to you. If things become impossible, withdraw immediately!" Old Jian reminded with a smile.
Old Jian nodded to Mighty Meng Jun, and the two clones took out a portion of materials respectively. The main material was a fifth-grade spiritual medicine, which was packed in a fourth-grade top-grade jade box.
This top-grade fourth-grade jade box alone is worth a lot of money, but for a powerful person, a top-grade fourth-grade spiritual object is not that important.
In addition to the main ingredients, the rest are some auxiliary materials, plus a pill recipe.
The fifth-grade elixirs that the two powerful clones took out were not the same, and the recipes of the elixirs were also different.
In fact, the fifth-grade pill recipe is a top secret of each sect, but any quality of pill recipe is open to the master alchemist.
Of course, the alchemist also has his own professional ethics and is not allowed to leak the alchemy recipe.
"Here are two sets of materials. First, refine two furnaces of fifth-grade elixirs!" Old Jian said with a smile.
Li Shiming nodded. He understood what the two great men meant. If the two fifth-grade elixirs failed, then there would be no need for them to ask Li Shiming to refine the elixir.
"Is there anything else?" He put away the two documents and asked.
"It's okay!" The two powerful clones shook their heads and said.
"Then I'll go back. The materials are too precious!" Li Shiming stood up and said goodbye.
This time he came here using a phantom clone. The two sets of fifth-grade materials were delivered to him, and his safety was his responsibility.
He left the Luanfeng Palace, and in a flash he appeared on the back of the Golden-winged Roc, returning to the Dongqi Continent at the fastest speed.
On the other side, Li Shiming's main body was thinking about the recipes in the two jade slips. IBMz15 had already calculated the contents of the two fifth-grade recipes and analyzed the possible problems that might be encountered in the alchemy process.
The fifth-grade elixir was in the hands of the phantom clone. After the first scan, IBMz15 obtained some data about the fifth-grade elixir. With the elixir recipe, it could analyze and study the process of refining the fifth-grade elixir.
Li Shiming separated another brain and began to think about the map in the other jade slip.
He knew that there was something to do next, and he had to visit the ancient ruins marked on the map.
Ancient ruins where a large number of half-step fifth-grade refined corpses appear must have half-step fifth-grade refined corpse materials.
As long as he has enough Half-Step Fifth-Grade Corpse Refining Materials, he can take all of his Half-Step Fifth-Grade Corpses to the next level and turn them into true 'Flying Yaksha'.
After waiting for a while, the phantom clone returned. There was no trouble along the way.
Even if there is trouble, the Golden-Winged Roc's speed can leave the trouble behind.
Li Shiming took the fifth-grade materials and put the two fifth-grade alchemy furnaces into the machine room.
He obtained two fifth-grade alchemy furnaces, one from the ancient ruins he explored, and the other from the "Herb Garden" in the temple.
The temple can also be considered an ancient relic, so the two fifth-grade alchemy furnaces were obtained from ancient ruins.
The fifth-grade immortal fire 'Boundless Immortal Fire' was sent into the two fifth-grade alchemy furnaces in the machine room, and then the 'Banana Treasure Fan' began to fan, raising the grade of the 'Boundless Immortal Fire' by a small level.
He also needs to input cave energy into the 'Infinite Immortal Fire' to ensure the power of the 'Infinite Immortal Fire'.
The alchemy process was not that difficult for him. His two brains controlled two fifth-grade alchemy furnaces respectively, and IBMz15 participated in the monitoring. In addition, with the ultra-fine control over the computer room space, as long as his brain did not rest, there was no possibility of alchemy failure.
As time passed, Li Shiming spent most of his time studying the methods of refining and improving the fifth-grade corpse.
The knowledge in the corpse refining books in his hands was obviously not enough, but fortunately, IBMz15 had unique capabilities in research.
