The purple-blue medicinal liquid gradually turned into dark purple. The airflow surrounding it took on the shape of a swimming dragon, continuously releasing bits of spiritual light.

Shen Lian, who was sitting outside the alchemy furnace, had a look of fatigue on his face. Even though his spiritual power was as high as eighty thousand feet, he still felt a little strenuous.

No wonder the Dragon-Replenishing Yuan Pill is so popular in the Tiannan immortal cultivation world. It is too difficult to refine.

I remember that there was this task in Canglan Mountain before. All the alchemist needed to do was to hand in two finished pills, and they had to be of lower quality.

And now Shen Lian is refining top-grade products.

Fortunately, the Hualong Buyuanzhi provided by Taoist Qiushan has good medicinal properties.

Shen Lian's spiritual consciousness fell into the alchemy furnace, but the deep purple medicinal power resisted his spiritual control. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation in many years.

It was as if the elixir in the alchemy furnace had a spirit. It knew it was about to be refined and developed resistance.

Finally, the last trace of green in the medicine liquid dissipated, and the entire thing turned into dark purple. In the rich medicinal fragrance, the dragon became clearer, and it seemed to be about to fly away with the medicine liquid in its mouth.

"point!"

Shen Lian made a gesture with both hands, and used his spiritual power to conjure up a pair of illusory big hands, and began to separate the liquid medicine.

"hold head high!"

At this time, the dragon transformed by the medicinal fragrance actually bit towards his hand that was dividing the medicinal liquid. He stretched out a hand to block the dragon outside. He quickly put his fingers together as a knife and divided the dark purple medicinal liquid into five parts.

There were five balls of dark purple liquid, each the size of a fist. Logically speaking, they could be split once more into ten portions.

However, Shen Lian did not do so. How could ten elixirs of medium and low quality be comparable to five elixirs of high quality? Not to mention the value, the difference in medicinal power alone was huge.

The five divided medicinal liquids rotated in the alchemy furnace. Under his alchemy condensation technique, they began to condense continuously and the color became brighter and brighter.

The swimming dragon that was transformed before was also divided into five parts due to the separation of the elixir liquid, and it surrounded each medicinal liquid respectively.

"Congeal!"

The pill fire rolled, the five colors intertwined, and the concentrated medicinal liquid gradually solidified into a rough pill shape.

Seeing the pill taking shape and the dragon attached to the surface of the pill, Shen Lian quickly formed a spell with both hands and took the last step of condensing the pill.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, the colorful spiritual light in the alchemy furnace was shining brightly. The extremely rough surface of the pill suddenly became smooth and unparalleled under the baptism of the colorful spiritual light.

The dragon on the surface quickly showed dragon patterns, dragon whiskers and dragon heads, like a subtle relief.

"open!"

At the same time, Shen Lian found the right time and opened the furnace.

The boiling elixir gas gushed out from the elixir furnace, and the spiritual light illuminated the entire cave. The flushing formation started to operate rapidly, blocking all kinds of strange phenomena within the formation.

At this moment, the formation of the protective formation has been further improved by Shen Lian. Although the grade is still at the upper third level, the base materials used for the formation have been replaced by fourth-level materials, and the power has reached the quasi-fourth-level.

The heat waves in the alchemy furnace rolled and impacted the formation again and again, and gradually calmed down after a dozen breaths.

The heat wave dissipated, and five round, purple pills covered with dragon patterns flew out of the furnace and were caught by Shen Lian.

The five pills were as big as longan, with lifelike dragon patterns on the surface, flowing with purple light, and rich medicinal power. Each one was of top quality.

“As expected of me.”

After checking each of the Bu Yuan Dan pills, Shen Lian separated them and sealed them in five jade boxes, which he sealed tightly. If even a trace of the medicinal power of this elixir leaked out, it would be considered a waste.

The successful refining of the Dragon-Replenishing Yuan Pill finally dissipated the blocked energy in his heart.

"Even in Canglan Mountain there is the Canglan Ranking. Even though there are only a few people in the Butian Sect including me, the great leader, we should also enrich the ranking list in the sect."

Although he has not developed many church members over the years, Qiu Shan, whom he developed before, and his infatuated lover Qiu Huonian have sent him many minerals and other resources.

"Let's call it the Bu Tian Wan Ling List. We'll only go for the high end."

After much thought, Shen Lian decided on a tone.

He doesn't do the popular stuff out there, he goes for high-end boutique stuff.

The elixirs are all of top quality.

Magical instruments, starting from the embryo of magic weapon.

Puppet, level 3 and above.

"Let's start with the elixir and magic weapon."

In a flash, Shen Lian went into his own cave treasury and began to take inventory of his reserves over the years.

There are the most ore, piled up into a small hill in the cave, but they are all first- and second-grade, and still need to be refined.

"Damn, I wish I had twenty clones."

"No, I have five clones."

Suddenly, Shen Lian suddenly thought that his clone seemed to be five in one.

After an inspection, he found that the remaining spiritual medicines were enough to refine a batch of daily cultivation pills for several small levels from the early stage of the Golden Core to the perfect stage of the Golden Core.

The lower grade third-level Nine Jade Bodhisattva Pill and the Three-Line Qingxu Pill.

The third-grade mid-grade Yuanyang Qi-boosting Pills and Yuanyang Powder.

As for the materials for the third-grade top-grade Origin Lingzhen Pill and Crimson Flame Pill, he had used up all of them when he reached Golden Elixir Perfection. However, the remaining spiritual herbs could be used to refine Qingling Baoyue Pill, which was also a pill used by Golden Elixir late-stage cultivators for daily practice.

It's a pity that there are no magical materials for the Dragon Marrow Fengyang Pill. Let Master Shen refine this thing, and the price will double and the efficacy will increase dramatically.

"Add another foundation-building pill."

After some sorting, Shen Lian discovered that he had accidentally gathered all the materials for a foundation-building pill in his reserves.

I still remember that when I was in Nanya Fairy City, there was a rumor that the offspring of a great cultivator needed a top-quality foundation-building pill. For this purpose, the Yunshang Sect went to great lengths to organize an auction and invited a master alchemist, but in the end, nothing came of it.

Who made this great monk not look for him? Open the furnace! Open the furnace! The more Shen Lian thought about it, the more he thought so. With the elixir, he could collect various spiritual medicines from the Bu Tian sect members.

You can make a lot of money by refining medicine.

As the mastermind behind the scenes, it would only take a few words to add a clause during the exchange process that those who provide elixirs will have priority in exchanging for higher quality elixirs.

quack.

"I never thought that a great leader like me would embark on the path of exploitation. I still remember the oath I made to lower the price of elixirs for my fellow Taoists."

"My friend, this is really enlightening."

After a sigh, Shen Lian threw out twenty thousand and three thousand.

"Go, clean the furnace and make it clean."

One of the two little ones spit out fire and the other spit out water, and they soon cleaned the inside and outside of the furnace.

"Master, refining the elixir is so tiring, do you want to take a hot spring bath?"

Erwan was working hard to spit fire under the alchemy furnace, while Sanqian was inside the furnace, stretching out his little paws and waving them.

"sensible."

Shen Lian nodded and plunged into the alchemy furnace.

"Come on, give me a scratch on the back."

…

As an alchemist with a conscience, Shen Lian naturally would not use his own bath water to make pills for his fellow Taoists. After taking a bath, he asked the two little ones to clean the alchemy furnace.

Then, he continued to refine the elixir.

…

Three Forests View.

Master Fu Ding squeezed out a drop of blood and put it into the Bu Tian Order. After several months of careful consideration, he decided to see what kind of monster it was.

The Sanlin Temple today is not worthy of a Nascent Soul cultivator's visit.

The moment Fu Ding activated the Bu Tian Order, the customer service deputy soul who was on standby knew it at the first moment.

"Father, please tell me your name."

While Master Fu Ding was still in a daze, an ethereal voice sounded.

"Help the tripod."

Fu Ding looked around and frowned slightly.

"The first time I recognized the Master of the Heaven-Repairing Order, it has been branded with divine thoughts."

"Fellow Daoist Fu Ding, congratulations on joining the Butian Sect."

"The Bu Tian Cult."

Master Fu Ding frowned even more deeply. What kind of demon or monster dared to do this in the name of repairing the sky?

This day is really chaotic.

"You can obtain Tianbu points by handing in resources, completing tasks, and trading with other Tianbu angels, and then redeem them for the resources needed for cultivation."

"You can also consume the Heaven-Repairing Points to issue corresponding tasks."

"Your current points for patching up the sky: 0"

"As a newly promoted Yellow-rank Angel, you do not have enough authority. Currently you can only wait for a random match with an Angel of the same rank to communicate."

…

"You have a new text message, please check it."

While Master Fu Ding was still frowning in confusion, the deputy soul in the Butianzhu Cave pinched his throat and transmitted the edited information.

Fu Ding clicked it casually, and the sound rang out, accompanied by magnificent music.

"The world is in chaos, and disasters are frequent. The monks of Sanlin Temple stick to their original intentions, exorcise demons and defend the Way... Those who are working to pacify the world should not be trapped in thorns, and those who are carrying firewood should not be strangled in the wind and snow."

After an extremely solemn announcement, before Master Fu Ding could relax his brows, six silver lights lit up in the area in front of him, and as the void twisted, a jade box slowly emerged.

What does this mean.

Everything in front of me is so weird.

"Who are you?"

"I am the spirit of the Sky-Repairing Artifact."

Fu Ding picked up the jade box in front of him and easily removed the seal on the outside. After opening it, a rich medicinal aroma rolled out like a long river and rushed towards his face.

When he saw the purple dragon-patterned elixir in the jade box, he couldn't help but hold his breath.

"Dragon-transforming pill to replenish essence!"

The purple pill sparkled with spiritual light, illuminating all directions. The dragon pattern on it was lifelike, as if it were alive in the purple sea.

Such spirituality...

“Superior quality!”

Fu Ding stared at the pill for a few breaths, then closed it tightly.

"Who exactly is Daoyou?"

"My Sanlin Temple is just a small declining Jindan sect. I wonder if there is anything that you would like to see."

Top quality Dragon-Transforming Yuan-Replenishing Pills cannot be purchased in the entire Tiannan Continent simply by having spirit stones. Even the fourth-rank alchemists in the seven major sects are unable to refine top quality pills.

What exactly does the Butian Sect do?

Just give him one at random.

"My Butian Sect is spread all over the world of immortal cultivation, and we strive to gather like-minded Taoist friends to help save the world."

"Help the sky to fall."

Master Fu Ding grabbed the jade box and murmured, "The Butian Sect."

…

Giving a third-grade top-grade elixir was nothing to Shen Lian. He had this idea when he secretly identified Sanlin Temple.

Cultivators like Fu Ding of Sanlin Temple have extremely strong mental states and wills as strong as a mountain. If they were not hampered by injuries, they would have a good chance of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in the future.

And such people often repay a drop of kindness with a spring of gratitude, so such monks are worth investing in.

Nestled in the cave, Shen Lian continued to put various elixirs into the alchemy furnace, and continued to work hard to enrich the Bu Tian Wan Ling List.

…

"Heavenly Spirit Fruit, Jade Marrow Ganoderma, Hydrangea..."

After refining all the spiritual herbs in reserve that could be used to make third-level elixirs, Shen Lian focused on the foundation-building pill, which was an indispensable item for all major sects.

For example, there is a sect called Sanlin Temple Fuding that has just joined. This sect, which is in a period of transition, is in need of foundation-building pills.

Shen Lian pinched the magic formula and put the main herbs into the alchemy furnace one by one.

Speaking of which, this was his first time refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

When I was a traveling doctor in the past, I didn’t have the conditions for this and could only bring happiness to my fellow Taoists.

If you send happiness now, it would be a bit cheap. You should do things according to your status.

Although it was the first time to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, there was a rumor in the immortal cultivation world, including the alchemy technique inherited by Shen Lian himself, which clearly stated that when refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, even if there were no mistakes in one furnace, only three finished Foundation Establishment Pills could be produced.

However, there are rumors that it was not like this in the beginning.

When various elixirs were melted together in the alchemy furnace, spiritual light began to surge in the furnace and the aroma of the medicine began to emanate. After the purification was completed, Shen Lian began to divide the liquid medicine.

The invisible resistance force came again, but fortunately it was not serious. He divided the elixir in the furnace into four parts and began to condense it.

The four portions of elixir liquid solidified little by little, and finally formed irregular pills.

When it came to the final moment of taking the pill out of the furnace, Shen Lian's mind enveloped the furnace, and he used both hands to make hand gestures to quickly complete the last step of condensing the pill.

But at the moment of this last step, a mysterious force suddenly fell from the darkness and rushed into the alchemy furnace.

Once this force is cast down, the pills in the furnace will be in devastating disaster.

"Mixed Soul Cleansing Method."

Shen Lian, who had been prepared, slapped his hands into the alchemy furnace repeatedly. The five-colored spiritual light suddenly turned into a ball of fire lotus that enveloped the four pills that were still somewhat softened, and then melted them together after remelting.

As the pill returned to its liquid state, the mysterious aura dissipated, as if it had never appeared.

This was the first time Shen Lian used the Mixed Spirit Refining Method. This method could be used to refine spiritual medicines for a second time, thereby improving the quality of the elixir.

The returned medicine liquid was dark green, sparkling, and a whole mass.

This time, Shen Lian divided the medicinal liquid into three parts again, and the medicinal power was continuously drawn away from two of them and gathered in the middle part of the medicinal liquid.

This ball of medicinal liquid, which was continuously strengthened by medicinal power, began to transform from dark green to black.

“Hoo, hoo, hoo!”

Shen Lian cast a series of spells, and the five-colored fire enveloped the alchemy furnace. After he made a series of moves, he suddenly felt that the medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace, which he had been paying special attention to, was absorbing the mystery of his five-colored spiritual fire.

A mysterious rhythm emanates from this liquid medicine.

"Daoyun!"

In an instant, Shen Lian noticed it, and he immediately increased the output of the Five Elements Spiritual Fire.

The medicinal liquid was like a greedy little beast. While being burned by the five-colored spiritual fire, it devoured the mystery of the spiritual fire in waves.

During this process, the medicinal liquid continued to condense into pills, and ripple-like lines appeared on the surface, emitting bursts of mysterious light.

“Buzz!”

However, this was not the end yet, as nine bumps appeared on the surface of the pill. After a "puff" sound, these small bumps cracked open, like fish gills, and began to inhale and exhale spiritual energy.

This scene gave Shen Lian a startle.

This thing is alive.

The first thought was to strangle it to death.

When he was using his magic power to deal with it, a loud thunder exploded in the sky and woke Shen Lian from his crazy thoughts.

…

“Boom!”

It is an area composed of countless space fragments. It is impossible to tell up from down, identify things from east to west, and even more impossible to tell where you are.

Inside a ball of dim light and shadow, there was a prison with so many thunderbolts that it was impossible to count them. The prison was very small, only ten feet in size.

And in the ten-foot-long prison cell, there was a curled up figure, with no support from lightning above, below, left, or right. No matter how he moved, there was always a formed purple lightning hanging above his head, piercing straight into his mind like a sword.

At this moment, this figure woke up, and the lightning around him was like a waterfall. However, when it fell in front of him, it was blocked by a layer of mysterious yellow light.

The appearance of this person was not clear, except for a dragon eye-sized dragon eye floating between his eyebrows. The whole body was as black as ink, but a round elixir with nine orifices was slowly rotating.

At this moment, the black Nine-Aperture Pill was covered with dense dark yellow silk threads, which intertwined to form a dark yellow protective shield to protect this person.

If you sense it carefully, you will find that a different human figure is reflected on each dark yellow silk thread.

Even with Xuan Huang's protection, this cultivator's condition was still not very good, and he screamed with bared teeth.

"Who is hurting me again?"

"Please, don't practice it anymore."

p.s., it’s only one update today. I feel cold all over and my face is hot. It’s so uncomfortable.
