742: 742 742: 742 As a highly skilled Artifact Refiner,
Shen Feng naturally could discern the principle behind the treasure he was testing.
He rely shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly at He Haichen and Xiu Zuixin’s expressions and was unaware of He Haichen’s decision to help him find Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
After returning the square jade to He Haichen, Shen Feng said, “Is the result different from what you expected?”
People of the Immortal Realm placed imnse importance on talent; Shen Feng had deeply realized this when he first arrived in the realm.
Now that the test results were out, even though his proficiency as a Zither Master was exceptional, he feared He Haichen and the others’ attitudes towards him might cool.
However, He Haichen’s deanor did not change.
After putting the square jade into his storage ring, he said, “Elder, you need not worry too much.
I will find a way to help you improve your Cultivation.
All you need to do is, when you have so free ti, give so guidance in the ways of the zither.”
“You are new to the Middle Realm and unfamiliar with this place; you may stay temporarily at this Zither Master Pavilion branch!
From now on, don’t be a stranger to , and feel free to speak up if you need anything!”
While speaking,
a look of sincere earnestness appeared on his face.
This old man’s temperant really suited Shen Feng’s taste.
He originally planned to leave straight away, but now he considered that resting here briefly for a couple of days wouldn’t hurt.
As for,
what He Haichen ntioned about helping him advance his Cultivation, Shen Feng ignored it all.
He had collected so many cultivators’ corpses in the Lower Realm, and with the abundance of Spirit Stones in his blood-red ring, he had more than enough to crazily enhance his strength considerably.
Xiu Zuixin took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Shen Feng, saying, “This contains a Spirit Origin Creation Pill!
Take it.”
He Haichen, standing by, paused slightly, surprised his disciple had brought out the Spirit Origin Creation Pill.
He knew his precious disciple’s personality well; once she made up her mind about sothing, she wouldn’t change it!
However, thinking back to what they had learned from Shen Feng’s zither music, offering a Spirit Origin Creation Pill as tuition did not seem like a loss.
He Haichen smiled and said, “Elder, it seems that tonight you will be able to break through the Nascent Variation Stage and officially enter the Sea Transformation Stage!”
“When cultivators of the Mysterious Immortal Stage take the Spirit Origin Creation Pill, they can directly ascend one minor level.
For those below the Mysterious Immortal Stage, it can increase their strength by at least two minor levels.”
“Of course, the exact number of levels one can ascend depends on the user’s body’s absorption capacity and their talent in cultivation, but after taking it, Elder, a two-level rise is assured for you.”
As an Alchemist, Shen Feng was very familiar with the effects of the Spirit Origin Creation Pill; He Haichen’s introduction was entirely unnecessary.
This pill was very mild in potency, hence why it could be taken by cultivators below the Profound Immortal stage as well.
Shen Feng did not expect Xiu Zuixin to be willing to give up a Spirit Origin Creation Pill, especially since she was currently at the Mysterious Immortal Stage, making the pill very important for her.
His luck in the Middle Realm had been good, having encountered two kind-hearted people, although the woman Xiu Zuixin was a bit too clever for her own good!
Shen Feng opened the porcelain bottle and saw a pill inside, radiating a blue glow.
The refreshing scent of the pill wafted out from the bottle.
He Haichen continued, “Elder, there was once a cultivator below the Mysterious Immortal Stage who took the Spirit Origin Creation Pill and managed to increase his Cultivation by four minor levels in one go.”
“The potency of this pill is imnse.
After taking it, you will need to go into seclusion for a period.”
“Nowadays, the celestial materials and earthly treasures required for crafting the Spirit Origin Creation Pills are almost extinct in the Middle Realm, and although these pills are not of the highest grade, they are still exceedingly troubleso to make.
The failure rate is incredibly high, so much so that all the alchemists in the entire Middle Realm can only manage to produce, at most, about ten pills a year, or even fewer!”
Seeing Shen Feng silently staring at the pills inside the porcelain bottle, He Haichen thought that his words had shocked Shen Feng into silence.
Despite Shen Feng’s impressive achievents as a Zither Master, he was only a cultivator from the Lower Realm and couldn’t possibly have seen a Spirit Origin Creation Pill before!
Shen Feng poured the pill onto his palm and gave it a tight squeeze, “Pop!” the entire pill instantly turned into powder.
This scene left He Haichen and Xiu Zuixin slightly stunned.
Once a pill was crushed into powder, its potency would greatly diminish and gradually dissipate!
The Spirit Origin Creation Pill, though not a top-tier pill, had skyrocketed in value due to its exceptionally low production rate!
This particular Spirit Origin Creation Pill had been a recent gift from the Emperor King of the Xu’s Dynasty to Xiu Zuixin, but she hadn’t had the chance to use it yet.
Seeing Shen Feng crush such a precious pill, He Haichen’s face soured.
He had sincerely regarded Shen Feng as a senior in the art of the zither, but was this young man taking advantage of his kindness and not taking them seriously at all?
With anger resurfacing on his face, He Haichen’s aura of an Immortal Sovereign flickered into existence as he demanded, “What is the aning of this?
Even if you don’t accept Zuixin’s kindness, there was no need to waste a Spirit Origin Creation Pill like this!”
“Fine, we owe nothing to each other now.
Leave this place imdiately.”
He Haichen was known for his amiable nature.
Xiu Zuixin watched Shen Feng intently, her beautiful eyes filled with a fleeting anger as she said, “Give an explanation.
I trust my own judgnt and intuition.”
Shen Feng had grown sowhat accustod to Xiu Zuixin’s demonic nature and intelligence, and opened his hand.
The entire Spirit Origin Creation Pill had turned into blue powder.
Upon seeing this, He Haichen’s face twitched.
But in the next mont.
Spiritual Energy surged within Shen Feng, rushing towards the palm of his hand and stimulating the residual potency of the powder in a special way.
Slowly, slowly.
The blue powder began to change color, and a stream of Blood Qi began to emanate from it.
Until the blue powder turned completely blood-red, the Blood Qi coming off it was so discomforting it made He Haichen’s gaze intensify, while Xiu Zuixin furrowed her brows.
Shen Feng said indifferently, “This is not a Spirit Origin Creation Pill, but a Spirit Origin Blood Pill!”
“The effects of these two pills are very similar on the surface, and even after consuming the Spirit Origin Blood Pill, a Profound Immortal cultivator would initially increase a minor level of cultivation, and those below the Mysterious Immortal Stage would increase by at least two minor levels.”
“However, cultivators who consu the Spirit Origin Blood Pill must not sustain injuries.
Once injured, the Blood Qi lurking in the pill will devour the cultivator and within a day, reduce them to a puddle of blood!”
Upon hearing this.
He Haichen gasped in shock.
He had also heard of the Spirit Origin Blood Pill, but wasn’t the recipe for this pill long lost?
This pill was personally bestowed by Zuixin’s father, the King, and it was certain that soone had tampered with it.
Thinking of this, his rage beca even more uncontrollable; he cherished his beloved disciple imnsely, and if it weren’t for Shen Feng’s intervention, his disciple could very well have ended up as a pool of blood, sothing he couldn’t bear!
Aside from her initial frown, Xiu Zuixin appeared relatively calm and looked at Shen Feng as she said coolly, “I owe you another one.”
