The art of alchemy requires talent, but more importantly, it requires practice to accumulate experience. Every alchemist has to spend a lot of money in the early stages. For example, rare materials such as blood ginseng and jade fungus, any one of which costs three or four hundred spirit stones. If you are lucky, you can refine one or two spirit-concentrating pills in one furnace. If you are unlucky, the pills will be wasted, and hundreds of spirit stones will be wasted.
Now that Chen Dadan is spending his money to help Ting'er gain experience, he is naturally very excited.
At this time, Nan Huanuo said, "I found a treasure map of ancient ruins in Murong Danqing's storage bag. The location is not far from Piaomiao City and can be reached in three days."
The man who killed people to steal treasures lost his life instead, and the storage bag on his body became someone else's trophy. Nan Huanuo had a special interest in collecting trophies, and often took out the storage bags of Murong Danqing and the Blood Shadow Monster to have a look.
"A treasure map of ancient ruins?"
Fairy Nishang glanced at Chen Dabing and said, "Sir, you said you came from another dimension, but the things you carry with you seem to be from the legendary ancient ruins. Perhaps your dimension is related to the ancient ruins."
Chen Dadan had heard more than once that the Lingquan treasure came from ancient ruins, and the name of the ancient magic weapon, the wrench, also contained the word "ancient", so the ancient ruins were very likely to be some kind of connection between the Earth world and this world.
So he nodded and said, "Then we must go to the ancient ruins. By the way, is that place dangerous?"
Fairy Nishang said, "It's very dangerous. Rumor has it that thirteen ancient ruins have been discovered throughout the Kyushu Continent. When each one was first discovered, a large number of immortal cultivators entered to explore. Less than one in ten could emerge alive, but those who did came back with great rewards, obtaining spiritual springs, divine equipment, and other heaven-defying treasures from the ancient ruins."
Chen Dadan said, "A survival rate of less than one in ten means a 90% chance of death. That's too dangerous. We don't lack spiritual springs or magical equipment, so we'd better not go to this dangerous place."
"From today on, everyone will begin consuming spirit stones for cultivation. According to the standard, everyone must hold a spirit stone when sleeping."
He knew the principle of staying hidden and developing slowly. Although he had the treasure map in his hand, he decided not to go to the ancient ruins for the time being. Now that he had a large number of spirit stones, the first thing to do was to practice.
"Yes, sir!"
Including the Fairy Nishang, everyone responded in unison.
Next, every senior and junior sister in the Red Clothes Sect, starting from Fairy Nishang, practiced diligently. As expected, according to Chen Dadan's request, they even hugged the spirit stone when they slept.
They had never been so extravagant before. Spirit stones were wealth to them. Wouldn't it be nice to buy a better weapon with the money?
Now Chen Dabing’s request to them is to quickly consume one thousand spirit stones, the faster the better.
As a result, they developed unique experience in consuming spirit stones.
"Sir, when practicing, holding two spirit stones in each hand and consuming them at the same time is faster than before, but it's a pity that this consumes too much energy."
Chen Dabao said, "As long as it can increase the speed, it's a good method. Can we consume three spirit stones at the same time?"
He was not afraid of the huge consumption and even wished that the disciples of the Red Robe Sect had three hands.
"Sir, I can try holding a spirit stone in my mouth."
The most hardworking one is Ting'er, she is brave enough to try new postures.
The next day, she said to Chen Dadan, "Sir, I can consume five spirit stones at the same time, and my cultivation speed has increased three times compared to before."
Chen Dadan was surprised and asked, "How did you do that?"
Ting'er blushed and whispered the secret in Chen's ear. Chen Dabing opened his eyes wide in shock. Is this possible?
"Your method can be promoted, but you must also protect your body and not get hurt. Just consume four spirit stones at the same time!"
When Ting'er promoted it, everyone in the Red Sect had the same expression, extremely shocked. After realizing that it was highly feasible, everyone blushed.
Chen Dabing wisely did not participate. If he were there, Fairy Nishang would probably dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
The method Ting'er came up with was very strange, but it was indeed very efficient and highly feasible. So everyone, including Fairy Nishang, consumed four spirit stones at the same time when practicing, and the practice speed increased by more than two times.
In other words, it only takes five years or even less for Fairy Nishang to cultivate to the great perfection of foundation building, and it only takes Ting'er, Nan Huanuo and others half a year to cultivate to the peak of Qi training.
However, the consumption rate of spirit stones increased fourfold. Fairy Nishang needed 400,000 spirit stones, and Ting'er and the others needed 4,000 spirit stones each.
The reason why Fairy Nishang needs to consume so many spirit stones is because the speed of absorbing spirit stones is different. She consumes one spirit stone for one hour of practice, while Ting'er and the others can absorb one spirit stone for a whole day.
The previous plan was to give each disciple one spirit stone per day during the Qi training period, and Fairy Nishang five spirit stones per day in the early stage of foundation building, consuming about 500 spirit stones per month. Now it has quadrupled, consuming 2,000 spirit stones per month.
Fortunately, the Red Clothes Sect currently possessed approximately 15,000 spirit stones, which was enough for several months of construction.
However, the pressure of spirit stones also came to Chen Dabing. As Fairy Nishang's cultivation level improved, more spirit stones would be consumed every day in the middle and late stages of foundation building.
It's time to make good money.
He actually had some plans for this. It just happened that the five major clan leaders were competing for the position of city lord, so he could make some money from them.
He opened a shop in front of the city lord's mansion, and hung a banner at the door of the shop.
"The Spiritual Spring treasure is priced at one thousand Spiritual Stones. No bargaining, no credit."
This price is a bit of a rip-off. It was only sold for 800 spirit stones at the auction, so the price has increased.
He was soon spotted by the sect disciples who came to prepare for the competition.
