Chapter 801 Earth's Fury, Heaven-Burning Li Fire

Over the years, Lin Jiuxiao has used all the Spirit Stones he had to purchase Spirit Medicine for refining Fire Element Pills.

Hearing there were so many pills, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Counting him in, these pills only needed to be divided among four people when brought back to the Sect.

Even if the Sect Leader decided to store some in the Treasure Pavilion, each person would still be allocated at least seventy to eighty pills.

“Senior Brother, the materials I gave you couldn’t possibly produce this many pills, right?”

He felt he had given too much and didn’t want the other party to contribute unilaterally.

Ji An smiled, waved his hand, and explained:

“Apart from the Tier Three Pine Seeds, I didn’t use any other materials. By the way, my Pill Formation Success Rate for refining Fire Element Pills has reached over ninety percent.”

A Pill Formation Success Rate of thirty to forty percent and one of ninety percent are completely different concepts.

He continued to take things out of the Grotto Void Stone; there were several white Jade Bottles, a Pine Wood Box, and a Jade Slip.

“Inside these Jade Bottles are Vajra Pills and Treasure Flower Pills; inside the box are Purifying Talismans and several sheets used to purify pollution. The Demon Fog is bound to spread in the Western Continent in the future, so it’s necessary to stockpile purifying items in advance. Recorded in the Jade Slip are some Pill Formulas, Talisman Making Techniques, and Magic Techniques not included by the Sect. Pill Formulas and Talisman Making Techniques must be studied by cultivators above the Chao Origin Stage level delegated by the Sect.”

The pill formulas he acquired are all inside, Treasure Flower Pill, Vajra Pill, Purple Cloud Jade Ganoderma Pill, Three Sun Meridian Pill, and so on. Talisman Making Techniques include Geng Metal Divine Thunder Talisman and Bing Fire Divine Thunder Talisman, along with some Golden Core level Magic Techniques.

Lin Jiuxiao gently rubbed the Jade Slip and solemnly said:

“These are truly foundational inheritances for the Sect; our Sect increasingly owes a lot to Senior Brother.”

After returning, he must inform the Sect Leader about them completely and try to make amends.

“We are fellow disciples from the same Sect; how can there be any debt owed! The Sect shielded us from wind and rain in the past, it’s only natural for me to repay the Sect now that I’ve made achievements.”

Looking at the dazzling array of items, Lin Jiuxiao said:

“In that case, the Sect’s strategy back then was somewhat conservative; they should have sent disciples to the Central Continent sooner.”

Ji An slightly shook his head, “Not exactly. Back then the Sect only had Senior Brother Zhengyang and Senior Brother Yuxiao as Golden Core cultivators, in addition to preparations for the Demon Calamity outbreak, there weren’t suitable candidates to come here.”

In the Central Continent, lacking Golden Core Cultivation is ineffective.

As he spoke, he took out a silver metal box and a Jade Slip emitting red Spirit Light, along with a Storage Bag:

“Over the years I’ve been contemplating Artifact Refining, refining disposable Thunder Beads with some success. The notes inside the Jade Slip hope to inspire the Sect’s Artifact Refiners. The Storage Bag contains a type of material called Thunder-Attracting Grass and a bag of Spirit Seeds.”

His approach was to extract sap from the Spirit Wood, selecting Red Cloud Pine and Celestial Essence Pear as materials, since these two Spirit Trees are most planted in the Little World.

Supplemented by Fire Coral powder and several other commonly found materials, along with Thunder-Attracting Grass powder, finally refining into Tier Two Top Grade power Thunder Beads.

Among them, the roles played by Fire Coral and Thunder-Attracting Grass were very crucial.

Overall, the refining technique was rather unsuccessful, as many materials were of Tier Three level, yet only managed to refine Tier Two Top Grade Thunder Beads, which was indeed laughable.

Ji An believed it was a Dharma Prohibition selection issue, but the refining knowledge he could access was insufficient for further improvement, transmitting the refining technique back to the Sect could also solicit collective wisdom.

After all, the Sect has originated from Artifact Refining, certainly accumulating plenty of knowledge unknown to him.

“Senior Brother’s energy is indeed abundant; alchemy, talisman making, artifact refining, and even raising a few Beast Tamers, the most crucial part is the rapid increase in cultivation that makes me so envious.”

Lin Jiuxiao said with a smile, sighing at the end.

Ji An’s eyebrows gently raised, thinking:

‘I won’t tell him that my cultivation has advanced to the Fifth-Layer Golden Core for now.’

He coughed lightly, changed the topic, and said:

“Junior Brother, please remember to convey my suggestions when you return to the Sect; ask the Sect Leader to send fellow disciples to the Central Continent for regular exchanges. Even suggest setting up shops here, to directly see the future potential for progress.”

Being stagnant implies standing still; the Sect is strong enough in the Western Continent but appears weak within the entire Cultivation Realm.

Lin Jiuxiao agreed:

“I will inform our fellow disciples of the experiences here, Senior Brother Yuxiao has traveled to the Central Continent before, I believe he would agree.”

Lin Qiubai and Li Haoran both have intentions to travel to the Central Continent, to witness the world’s splendor and other cultivators’ elegance, only then can they truly perceive themselves.

He paused for a while, then smiled:

“I’ve been away from the Sect for thirty years; maybe upon returning I’ll see fellow disciples breaking through to the Golden Core Realm.”

If everything goes smoothly, Han Yan and Qin Yan might break through.

Adding a couple of Daoist Masters by chance, the Sect’s Tier Three node becomes rather tight, thus dispatching cultivators for exchange might not be a bad thing.

Once the Sect’s Spiritual Vein elevates to Tier Three Middle Grade, a new Tier Three Lower Grade node will emerge, enhancing the Sect’s foundation with a fresh round of advancements.

“Haha, the Sect’s development over these years is indeed cheerful and inspiring.”

The two conversed about the future, eyes gleaming with brilliance.

…

In the blink of half a month passed, after sending Lin Jiuxiao off, Ji An arrived at the Wind Listening Pavilion.

The maid approached with a smile, “What does the Senior wish to purchase? Cultivation Techniques, Magic Techniques, various Cultivation Technique inheritances; we have everything you need here.”

“I want to talk with Fellow Daoist Guangji.”

The shop selling Cultivation Techniques has mysterious connections, reportedly tied with several major forces.
