After having lunch, Ji An teleports to Ningcui Cliff to report to his master.
Ge Ying shakes his head and says:
"Next ti you return from outside the Sect, send a Communication Golden Sword to imdiately, so your teacher can be relieved sooner."
Ji An grins and replies:
"It’s my mistake, I’ll definitely do it next ti.
But master needn’t worry about ; I possess a Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact. In the whole Sect, not many cultivators have such a thing!"
Saying this, he summons the Earth-Departing Fla Banner like he’s showing off.
The Spiritual Artifact spreads a cloud of spirit-light-filled fire cloud around him, while the artifact itself appears and disappears like a phoenix bird in the cloud, emitting a boisterous and fierce screech.
Upon hearing the sound, Ge Ying imdiately feels a sense of agitation rising within, which takes a while to suppress.
"You child, you actually attacked with the artifact; its sound waves can ignite people’s emotions, making them agitated!"
"Ah?"
Ji An scratches his head, "I didn’t know it had this special property!"
During the refining process, the Earth-Departing Fla Banner had emitted such a screech.
Maybe due to the blood sacrifice at the ti, he had not felt the bird’s screech had such an effect, and Senior Brother Zhuu Xiangrong didn’t ntion it.
Therefore, the emotional-influencing effect of the artifact must have been ford recently.
The disciple’s expression doesn’t seem fake, Ge Ying smiles:
"So, it is the artifact’s inherent wonder.
Very good, with such a Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact by your side, even if your attacks are lacking, you can spar with cultivators of the sa tier."
Ji An grins, revealing two rows of white teeth:
"Master, I am very strong."
The master doesn’t know about the Stone Turtle, and even less about how much it boosts him.
Ge Ying chuckles lightly:
"Even with high comprehension, practicing Magic Techniques and understanding Magic Intent requires ti.
You have managed to practice four Chao Origin Stage Planting Techniques to an advanced level, which is truly remarkable, leaving no ti for practicing Magical Combat skills."
She does not deny the disciple’s expertise in Spirit Farming is extrely high, ridiculously so.
But after all, human energy is limited, and ti is fair to every cultivator.
No matter how profound your cultivation, there are only twelve double hours in a day, not even one extra breath.
The master and disciple chat for a while, Ji An says:
"Master, Red Fla Peak has now nurtured Middle Grade Tier Two Longevity Peaches. Once they bear fruit, another batch of Lifespan Extension Pills can be refined.
Taking one then can at least extend life by a few years."
Longevity Peaches enhanced to Middle Grade Tier Two offer much-improved effects.
"No need, I already do not wish to linger on any longer."
Ge Ying shakes his head firmly. If she were one step away from a breakthrough, she would surely do anything to extend her lifespan.
In her current state, consuming Lifespan Extension Pills would be purely wasteful.
"I have already seen you, Liu Yu, and Luo Ying break through to the Chao Origin Stage realm, witnessed you take charge of Ningcui Cliff, and witnessed you preside over the Agricultural Hall.
In this life, I have no regrets left; leave the Lifespan Extension Pills for the cultivators who need them more. As a bloodless old woman, I won’t compete for the younger folks’ resources."
Her eyes show only peace, having seen the disciple’s high-level Magic Technique during Ye Changqing’s funeral, she suddenly found real solace in life and death.
Ji An tried to persuade a few more tis, she still remained unmoved, firmly refusing.
...
Bidding farewell to the master, Ji An returns to the Agricultural Hall.
Lin Mao sees him, quickly stands up and bows:
"Hall Master, you’ve returned, please have a seat."
Ji An returns the gesture, and once seated, asks:
"Has anything happened lately, Hall Master Lin?"
"Everything is fine, every task is advancing steadily, and the Spirit dicine growth in the dicinal Garden is also very good."
After inquiring about the Agricultural Hall’s situation, he gets up to leave, riding the Fire Elent Cloud to Sunrise Peak.
Arriving at the main hall of the Treasure Pavilion, he sees Jia Yu and Han Yan excitedly chatting.
Jia Yu notices him coming in and quickly waves:
"Brother, co quickly, Junior Sister Han brought good news!"
Ji An slightly raises his eyebrows, smiling:
"Could it be that Senior Sister has researched a pill to replace the Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pill?"
"Haha, Brother, you are indeed prescient, guessed it in one go!"
"Really?"
Ji An’s face is full of surprise, he was just casually speaking, not expecting it to be true.
He thought the other side had long given up researching new Pill Formulas, not expecting the silver lining.
"How can it be fake!"
Han Yan proudly raises her chin, full of heroic spirit.
Jia Yu pushes the jade bottle on the table forward, his words filled with passion and excitent:
"Junior Sister used Top-Grade Red Cloud Pine Seeds as the material to refine this Spirit Pill.
According to my analysis, this pill possesses about two-tenths the effect of Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pill. Although the cost is similar, it requires far fewer other Spirit dicines.
That ans, as long as Brother can steadily supply Top-Grade Pine Seeds, the gap for Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pills among our fellow disciples can be greatly reduced."
In theory, every Chao Origin Stage cultivator has a demand for Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pills.
Ji An’s gaze is steady, asks:
"What does the ancestor say?"
The research of this pill, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say, will impact the entire Cultivation Realm!
At least in a few years, the Sect will beco the first major power in the Western Continent.
Han Yan frowned slightly and sighed softly:
"The ancestor has spoken, this pill must not be spread outside and can only circulate within the sect.
Actually, I think that using this new pill to exchange for more benefits would be in the best interest of the sect."
If it can only circulate within the sect, her profits would significantly decrease.
Jia Yu shook his head and said:
"Don’t think about it anymore; if the pill flows outside the sect, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
The existence of it can’t be revealed until the sect has stronger power."
Sects in Central Continent would also be interested in such a pill formula.
Ji An pondered for a mont and opened his mouth:
"I feel it wouldn’t matter even if it’s exposed, instead we could leverage the pill formula and make a huge profit."
Jia Yu raised his eyebrows:
"Why do you say that, Junior Brother?"
"Although the pill formula is precious, keeping it within the sect doesn’t create greater value.
rely satisfying the needs of fellow sect mbers is a waste of its potential.
Soday, we would still choose to sell this pill.
After the pill formula is exposed, it might bring competition from other forces that possess the formula, but we will have already gained enough returns.
More importantly, this pill depends on the top-grade pine nuts, and many forces even if they get the formula, probably don’t have that many top-grade pine nuts available!"
Ji An analyzed calmly, if the raw material of this pill was very common, naturally it couldn’t be disclosed.
The problem is that Red Cloud Pine is not a very valuable tree species, and other forces don’t likely have many top-grade Spirit Pine.
To refine the pill, one must first plant more trees.
Forces strong enough to quickly cultivate top-grade Red Cloud Pine wouldn’t care about it, while those without the strength have no way to do so.
Han Yan’s eyes brightened and she said:
"Junior Brother makes a lot of sense! You should go persuade the ancestor."
How could she refuse when there could be more benefits!
Ji An shook his head and smiled:
"I won’t do it within ten years, there aren’t many top-grade Spirit Pine in the sect.
If the pill formula is exposed, we can’t sell this pill, thus earning less profit."
Before the new pill becos seriously excessive in the sect, selling this pill and formula can’t maximize benefits.
Jia Yu nodded, "Junior Brother sees it very clearly, that’s true.
By the way, the ancestor has already decided to plant more Spirit Pine on Red Fla Peak."
The value of Red Cloud Pine had been completely developed, not only could it refine late-stage Foundation Establishnt pill, but also supply cultivators opening Fire Elent Divine Mansion.
Expanding the planting area is a very natural thing.
Ji An frowned and asked:
"Does the ancestor want to prioritize cutting down those Spirit Plants?"
If the Spirit Wood is cut down, he would suffer real losses, not knowing whether the sect is willing to compensate.
"You’re overthinking it, Junior Brother, the ancestor has already ordered Diligence Hall to seriously analyze the plan of cutting down part of the Spirit Plants on Red Fla Peak, and Senior Brother Zhang’s conclusion is to keep it as it is.
After the spiritual vein upgrade on Red Fla Peak is completed, more Spirit Fields will naturally appear, and then planting Red Cloud Pine won’t be too late.
The spiritual vein on Red Fla Peak is just a branch of the main spiritual vein, it requires less ti and spiritual objects for an upgrade compared to the sect’s main spiritual vein.
It is expected to complete the tier upgrade within ten years, the sect can afford to wait."
Ji An was relieved and said:
"That’s good, by the way, I haven’t asked yet, Senior Sister, what’s the na of this pill?"
Doing so, his interests wouldn’t suffer at all.
Han Yan said solemnly:
"Purple Fla Heart Protection Pill, personally nad by the ancestor.
Junior Brother, to refine this pill, cultivating more Tier Two top-grade Red Cloud Pine is the foundation of everything."
She didn’t really like the na, but dared not oppose it.
Jia Yu chid in:
"The ancestor ordered an increase in the exchange price for top-grade pine nuts, Junior Brother will be able to earn more small rits."
"I’ll do my best," Ji An replied with a smile.
The three chatted for a long ti, and Han Yan took her leave.
"Junior Brother, wait a mont, I’ll go take out the pill."
Jia Yu entered the secret vault and took out a jade bottle, sighing:
"A few days ago, the ancestor specifically instructed to go to Luofeng Valley to exchange a large number of Earth Soul Soothing Pills.
One could say, this decision by the ancestor is completely ant for you!
Inside are nine pills, if the transaction with Luofeng Valley remains stable, you can get twelve Earth Soul Soothing Pills every three years."
Having this batch of high-tier resources, his cultivation speed would undoubtedly reach a new level.
Originally, he wanted to negotiate with Luofeng Valley, hoping to trade more pills.
However, Luofeng Valley didn’t agree, not sure about the reason.
"The ancestor’s kindness, I have no way to repay."
Ji An was emotionally stirred, Earth Eating Qi was relatively difficult, being able to get so many pills would definitely speed up the growth of his Earth Elent Divine Mansion core.
"Earth Elent Spirit Pill is quite rare, the exchange price is 1500 small rits per pill."
"The price increase is so significant!"
Ji An gritted his teeth, the prices for Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pill and Jade Radiance Pill were only one thousand small rits each.
"I can still deal with a higher exchange price, but the quantity is too low!"
He was still at the Second Transformation of the Chao Origin Stage, able to get eighteen Vermilion Bird Fla Grass Pills every three years.
