Chapter 1050
byWhich medicinal material can grow for such a long time? During ten thousand years, natural disasters, man-made disasters, and the ever-changing world, any unexpected situation can make the herbal medicine disappear between heaven and earth. It can be said that such a medicinal material is simply impossible to find.
As for the other precious medicinal materials, although they are of extremely high value, they are not difficult to seek. The Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce mainly engages in business. As long as this matter is entrusted to people like Harika, Yang Kai believes that the other medicinal materials can be collected soon.
A single Soul Returning and Soul Gathering Flower with a ten-thousand-year medicinal age instantly left Yang Kai at a loss!
“Women, there are plenty of them in the world. I see that you are still young and have a lot of time to live in the future. You will always meet some outstanding women. Sometimes, you have to let go when it’s time… Well, letting go is also a kind of happiness.” Zong Ao sighed with emotion, as if he had some feelings in his heart.
“I must save her!” Yang Kai shook his head, his expression firm. “Senior, isn’t there any other way to resolve her crisis?”
Zong Ao looked at him deeply, and his expression gradually became solemn. After a long while, he said, “There is another kind of pill that should also be possible, and the materials needed for this pill are not difficult to find, and the grade of the pill itself is not too high.”
Yang Kai’s eyes lit up, and he eagerly shouted in a low voice, “Please, senior, show me the way!”
“Well, seeing your infatuation, this old man will give you another piece of advice.” Zong Ao sighed and said leisurely, “But I still advise you not to have too much hope.”
“Please, senior, speak.”
“Li Huo Dan!” Zong Ao spat out a few words from his mouth.
“Li Huo Dan?” Yang Kai frowned and quickly thought about it. After a moment, his eyes showed surprise. “Low-grade Saint King level Li Huo Dan?”
“That’s right, the Li Huo Dan is indeed a low-grade Saint King level pill!” Zong Ao nodded slightly.
Yang Kai looked puzzled. “Senior, this junior doesn’t quite understand. The grade of the Li Huo Dan is not high. How can it relieve my master’s crisis?
He really didn’t understand. The first method Zong Ao gave was to refine a Void King level pill, and the second method was actually a Saint King level pill. The gap between the two was like the difference between clouds and mud.
Zong Ao gave a strange heh heh laugh and grinned, saying, “Do you think it’s an ordinary Li Huo Dan? What this old man is referring to is a Li Huo Dan with pill clouds!”
Yang Kai was shocked and suddenly understood in his heart.
“Since you are also considered an alchemist, you should know that once a pill gives birth to pill patterns and pill clouds, its medicinal effect will increase geometrically. This is also the reason why pills with pill patterns and pill clouds are much more valuable. If a Saint King Grade Lower-Rank Li Huo Dan gives birth to pill patterns, its medicinal effect is almost equivalent to that of a Saint King Grade Upper-Rank one. If it gives birth to pill clouds, even if it is not as good as a Void King Grade pill, it is not far off.”
“I understand.” Yang Kai’s eyes shone with divine light and he instantly regained his spirit.
Zong Ao saw his expression and sneered, “But how easy is it to refine a Li Huo Dan with pill clouds? This may be even more difficult than you finding a Soul Returning and Soul Gathering Flower with a ten-thousand-year medicinal age. This old man still says the same thing, it’s better for you, kid, to give up as soon as possible and not do these useless efforts.”
He said these things not to dampen Yang Kai’s enthusiasm, but just to objectively evaluate the facts.
Even if the few most alchemists in the Heng Luo Star Field were to refine the Li Huo Dan they might not necessarily be able to refine pill clouds.
Yang Kai grinned and said, “How do you know if it will work if you don’t try?”
Zong Ao quickly stated his position: “Kid, don’t have any ideas about this old man. It’s impossible for me to help you refine the Li Huo Pill. This old man has no friendship with you, and I don’t have such great ability to ensure the refinement of a Saint King-level pill with pill clouds.”
“I didn’t mean to ask senior to refine it.” Yang Kai smiled lightly.
“Oh? Do you have someone in mind?” Zong Ao was slightly surprised. “Let’s hear it. Who do you want to find to refine it? This old man will help you analyze and see if that person has the ability!”
He didn’t think that on this Rainfall Star, there was still someone whose alchemy skills were higher than his own. When it came to alchemy, he was the most powerful one.
“This junior will refine it himself!”
“You refine it yourself?” Zong Ao’s eyes almost popped out.
Yang Kai nodded slightly.
Zong Ao seemed to want to re-examine him, looking him up and down. After a long while, he said with a strange expression: “If you want to act recklessly, this old man won’t stop you. That’s your own business. Well, if you can really refine a Li Huo Pill with pill clouds, this old man will call you grandpa!”
He simply didn’t believe that with Yang Kai’s ability, he could refine it.
Yang Kai was just a small martial artist at the Second-Order Saint level. Even if he was an alchemist and had some talent and qualification in the way of alchemy, at most, he had spent twenty years in this line.
A Saint-level top-grade pill was his limit! Zong Ao determined in his heart.
Unable to refine even Saint King level pills, how could one refine the supreme Pill Cloud?
Zong Ao simply regarded him as a young man full of vigor and vitality, speaking wildly.
Yang Kai’s eyes lit up instead. He smiled strangely and said, “Senior, this junior really doesn’t dare to accept such a title… Since you don’t trust me so much, how about we make a bet?”
“Bet?” Zong Ao narrowed his eyes and snorted, “What kind of bet? You set the terms, and this old man will take it on!”
If this junior can refine a Pill Cloud this junior doesn’t have too harsh a request. Just give me half of that.” Yang Kai looked at Zong Ao with burning eyes.
Zong Ao’s face twitched, and he snorted, “Kid, this old man thought you were usually honest and well-behaved, but it turns out you’ve been holding back bad ideas, eyeing this old man’s treasure? Aren’t you afraid of knocking out your own teeth?”
“If I really knock out my teeth, it’s also my own fault.” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. “Could it be that senior is afraid of losing?”
Zong Ao couldn’t help but twitch his lips: “Don’t try to trigger this old man. This old man has long since stopped playing your clumsy tricks.”
Although he said so, Zong Ao still said, “Alright, if you can really refine the Li Huo Dan with Dan Yun, what’s the harm in dividing half of the Xuan Yin Kui Water to you? I have been committed to researching Dan Patterns for hundreds of years but I have always been confused and couldn’t find the way in. If you have the ability to surpass me, I will be convinced. But boy, what if you can refine it?
He looked at Yang Kai with a cold face and an extremely unfriendly expression.
The bet proposed by Yang Kai made him a little angry. He felt that Yang Kai looked down on the art of alchemy and, invisibly, also looked down on his research over the years. There was already a hint of murderous intent in his heart.
“At the disposal of senior!” Yang Kai was very straightforward. Anyway, if he couldn’t refine the pill at that time, Xue Yue would surely die, and when she died, he would also be in trouble.
“Good, I just lack a helper. If you can’t do it, then be my coolie for the rest of your life!” Zong Ao cackled strangely, “But this bet has to have a time limit, otherwise, do I have to wait forever?”
“That’s natural.” Yang Kai seemed to have expected that he would say this, “The time limit is when my adult dies. How about it?”
“That’s a matter of a year and a half. Boy, you’re crazy enough. I’ll just open my eyes wide and see how you refine the Li Huo Dan with Dan Yun!” Zong Ao laughed loudly.
“Senior, just wait and see.” Yang Kai grinned, showing no sign of panic at all, but rather full of confidence.
This expression was imprinted in Zong Ao’s eyes, making him somewhat dazed and secretly suspecting whether this kid was just playing tricks or really had the confidence.
Not feeling at ease, he asked, “With your current means, what grade of pill can you refine at most?”
“Saint King-level lower-grade pill!” Yang Kai said casually.
“How is that possible?” Zong Ao was astonished. “Just with you, you can refine Saint King-level pills?”
He had a disbelieving look on his face, feeling that Yang Kai might be exaggerating.
Yang Kai shrugged his shoulders: “I really have refined them.”
“How old are you this year?” Zong Ao was suspicious and skeptical.
“Less than thirty, probably twenty-seven or twenty-eight?” Yang Kai wasn’t too sure about his age. He had been away all year round and sometimes in secluded cultivation, and had long since lost the concept of time and age.
To be able to refine Saint King-level pills at the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight, Zong Ao was shocked in his heart and could hardly speak.
He suddenly had a bad feeling that it seemed that half of his Mysterious Yin Sunflower Water had already changed its surname.
Shaking his head, Zong Ao said again, “After a year and a half, the matter will naturally be clear. I won’t inquire about it now. However, kid, I still have to tell you that even if you refine the Lihuo Pill with the Dan Cloud, it can only expel the poison of the Xuanyin Kuishui on that girl and prevent her from dying suddenly. The trouble of the scattered soul and spirit body still has to be solved by yourself.”
Yang Kai frowned and clasped his fists and said, “I understand.”
“Go out.” Zong Ao waved his hand.
Yang Kai retreated, went to the side room to look at the sleeping Xue Yue, and then left the palace and set off for the branch of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce.
Half a day later, Yang Kai saw Halika and others in the main hall in the mountains.
Halika, Lin Mufeng, and the middle-aged woman gathered around a table. On the table was a container made of the five-colored meteorite. In the container, there were ten drops of Xuanyin Kuishui, as crystal clear as pearls.
Three pairs of eyes were like leeches adsorbed on the Xuanyin Kuishui, and they couldn’t move their eyes away. They were all beaming with joy.
the five-colored meteorite is not difficult to find in the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce. After Zong Ao left they quickly retrieved these treasures. Now they are discussing how to distribute them and whether to report to the main star.
The three of them were a bit at a loss despite their excitement.
Seeing Yang Kai’s arrival, the three of them didn’t avoid suspicion and didn’t put away the Profound Yin Sunflower Water. Hali Ka stood up and asked, “Little brother, how is Lord Xue’s situation?”
“So-so, but still unconscious.” Yang Kai replied casually.
The complexions of the three darkened.
“However, Senior Zong Ao has promised to diagnose Lord Xue and also found a way to treat him.” Yang Kai said casually, making it up.
“Really?” Hali Ka’s expression lit up with joy. Lin Mufeng also clearly let out a sigh of relief. The middle-aged woman even patted her plump breasts, and her complexion immediately looked much better.
Little brother, if there is anything that the chamber of commerce needs to help with, just ask. Lord Xue had an accident on Rainfall Star. If there is anything to help with, it is our bounden duty.” Hali Ka said seriously.
“I came here just to ask you for help.” Yang Kai smiled slightly.
