This Holy Son of Tai Hua is wealthy enough to rival a nation?
Can he really bring out so many treasures?
Lu Changsheng calmly took out several Purple Gold Bagua Gourds filled with various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Elixir Pills, “These treasures should be sufficient, right?”
Suxin Fairy scanned the contents of the Purple Gold Bagua Gourds with her Divine Sense, and indeed, the total value of the items inside was five times that of the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Pill.
Suxin Fairy’s beautiful eyes showed surprise as she regarded this junior with amazement.
He could actually afford the price to request the Pill Saint’s service!
“Enough,” Suxin Fairy said unceremoniously as she stretched out her hand and collected the Purple Gold Bagua Gourds into her sleeve, “You may go back now. When I’m free to craft the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Pill, I will have a disciple deliver it to Taihua Divine Mountain.”
A Pill Saint is truly a Pill Saint, only crafting Divine Pills when she has free time, and one must not rush her.
The somewhat pleasing aspect was that once the Divine Pill was ready, Suxin Fairy’s disciple would deliver it door to door.
“Wait a moment.”
“What else is there?”
Suxin Fairy was surprised to see that Lu Changsheng had other matters to discuss.
Did Lu Changsheng want to request her to craft another Divine Pill?
It is not cost-effective to request a Pill Saint to craft an eighteenth-grade Divine Pill.
The Supreme Elders of Lianshan Holy Land could craft eighteenth-grade Divine Pills with just a two or threefold price, even without materials, whereas requesting the service of a Pill Saint required a fivefold price.
It only made sense to request the Pill Saint’s service for crafting nineteenth or twentieth-grade Divine Pills, given their prices.
Lu Changsheng, with thick skin, said, “Please, Suxin Fairy, leave a token.”
Ah?
Suxin Fairy was taken aback. What in the world did this junior want to do?
She was a Pill Saint with an exceedingly high status. What did Lu Changsheng want with her token?
“In the future, if I wish to craft a certain Divine Pill, I can have a disciple come to see the Fairy with the token.”
Lu Changsheng found that it was a good way to spend the excess treasures he had by requesting the Pill Saint to craft nineteenth and twentieth-grade Divine Pills.
During the process of taking on disciples, he had acquired many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that he had no use for.
Requesting the service of a Pill Saint to craft Divine Pills might have been more costly, but the advantage was being able to specify which Divine Pills to craft.
The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator came with uncertainty.
“…”
Suxin Fairy was left speechless.
Had Lu Changsheng become addicted? She was a grand Pill Saint, not someone who seemed like she had become Lu Changsheng’s personal alchemist!
Although Lu Changsheng had met the price to request her service, it still felt peculiar to her.
Could Lu Changsheng really afford the price to request her service to craft nineteenth or even twentieth-grade Divine Pills?
After some thought, Suxin Fairy handed over a Jade Pendant engraved with her Daoist name to Lu Changsheng as a token for him and his disciples to seek an audience when they come to Lianshan Holy Land.
A Pill Saint holds a transcendent status, but they too require Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures for their cultivation, which is why the price they charge for crafting Divine Pills for other Holy Lands is so exorbitant.
Lu Changsheng was likely to take charge of Taihua Holy Land in the future, so their cooperation would not be infrequent.
Lu Changsheng accepted the Jade Pendant from Suxin Fairy and, with unabashed audacity, said, “My seventh disciple, Xiao Fan, possesses great talent in the art of elixir crafting, but unfortunately, I’m not skilled in that area. If possible, may I have him study under the Fairy for a period of time?”
Lu Changsheng pondered that Suxin Fairy was the youngest Pill Saint in the history of Lianshan Holy Land.
Having Xiao Fan study under Suxin Fairy could lead to greater achievements in elixir crafting.
“Ah?”
Suxin Fairy let out an involuntary exclamation.
Lu Changsheng actually wanted her, a Pill Saint, to guide his disciple in cultivation? Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire
She was a Pill Saint, not a lecturer!
“As long as the Fairy is willing to teach my disciple the ways of elixir crafting… the tuition fee is negotiable. For every five hundred years he studies under the Fairy, I will pay the equivalent of the treasures for a seventeenth-grade Immortal Pill.”
Lu Changsheng spared no effort in cultivating his disciple.
Lu Changsheng certainly did not lack treasures.
As long as Suxin Fairy was willing to teach, he was ready to pay Xiao Fan’s tuition.
“This…”
Suxin Fairy originally wanted to refuse, but Lu Changsheng had given so much.
If Xiao Fan came to cultivate, Suxin Fairy’s direct disciple would be more than sufficient to guide Xiao Fan’s practice.
“Could my eldest disciple guide his cultivation? If his talents are dazzling, I might also provide some guidance from time to time.”
Ultimately, Suxin Fairy agreed.
“That’s fine.”
Lu Changsheng gave Xiao Fan an opportunity.
If Xiao Fan could also become a Pill Saint, Lu Changsheng would no longer need to ask others for help.
After obtaining Suxin Fairy’s jade pendant, Lu Changsheng left Lianshan Holy Land and returned to Mount Taihua.
“He really is a strange one.”
Having cultivated for countless years, Suxin Fairy saw such an odd junior for the first time.
After Lu Changsheng left, a female disciple entered the Pill Tower and met with Suxin Fairy, “Master, the Sect Leader of the Purple Void Palace in Kunlun Mountains wishes for you to craft a Divine Pill. He said that perhaps only you can concoct this kind of Divine Pill. This is the formula he has provided.”
Suxin Fairy’s delicate fingers took the formula, her face showing confusion, “Why does the Purple Void Palace need this kind of Divine Pill? Could it be that they have foreseen something?”
The female disciple was puzzled, “Master, what kind of Divine Pill does the Purple Void Palace need that is causing you such difficulty?”
Suxin Fairy’s gaze was profound, “This is a formula for a twenty-first-grade Divine Pill. Even if I personally concoct this pill, the success rate would be less than one in ten.”
“Even Master cannot guarantee success? Then isn’t the Purple Void Palace giving so much Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in vain…”
“That’s right, the Purple Void Palace is just gambling on this less than ten percent chance.”
“Concocting this Divine Pill will take a long time; for now, I shall first craft the eighteenth-grade Divine Pill for that young man named Lu.”
…
In Mount Taihua, when Lu Changsheng returned, he found that Xia Ningxue had come.
As the Holy Maiden of Guanghan, Xia Ningxue needed to learn to handle the affairs of Guanghan Palace to eventually take charge of it.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ningxue paid a sudden visit.
“I asked my master for time off. We have ten thousand years; we can cultivate the ‘Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills’ and the ‘Holy Spirit Sword Art.'”
After speaking, Xia Ningxue’s cheeks faintly flushed with heat.
She had specifically asked the Guanghan Palace Master for leave, mainly because she wanted to spend time with Lu Changsheng, and they could also cultivate the ‘Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills’ and the ‘Holy Spirit Sword Art’ together.
“You came to see me mainly because you want to be with me, right?”
Lu Changsheng saw through Xia Ningxue’s little scheme and deliberately pointed it out.
Xia Ningxue’s cheeks reddened even more, “That’s not true…”
Without waiting for Xia Ningxue to explain, Lu Changsheng took her hand and walked into the cave dwelling on Yuntai Peak.
For the next ten thousand years, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue worked together to cultivate the ‘Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills’ and the ‘Holy Spirit Sword Art.’
These two cultivation techniques required two people with matching intentions to practice together.
Lu Changsheng always felt that these two cultivation techniques were extraordinary.
Moreover, the two techniques complemented each other.
If both techniques were cultivated to the highest realm, perhaps they would be no less than the ‘Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art’ and ‘One Sword Across Ages.’
The Guanghan Palace Master had also passed down Guanghan Palace’s supreme teachings to Xia Ningxue, who had now become a top ten genius on the Qilin Ranking.
Xia Ningxue’s sword “Mo Xue” was a Dao Artifact proving the Guanghan Ancestor’s cultivation; rumored to be one of the top-ranked Dao Artifacts, Xia Ningxue could not yet harness even one percent of its mystical power.
Xia Ningxue was gradually refining the power the Guanghan Ancestor had sealed within her, and her cultivation level had reached the third realm of the Immortal Emperor.
Cultivating with Xia Ningxue and exchanging insights on the Great Dao and the Sword Dao increased the speed of cultivation.
Additionally, being in each other’s company for a long time, the cultivation of the ‘Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills’ progressed rapidly.
“‘One Sword Across Ages’ is the sword of detachment, while the ‘Holy Spirit Sword Art’ is the sword of affection, each with its own strengths.”
Exploring both profound sword arts deepened Lu Changsheng’s understanding of the Sword Dao.
“In addition to the Mo Xue sword, this Absolute Immortal Sword of yours should also be a Dao Artifact.”
Lu Changsheng noticed that Xia Ningxue carried the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s sect-defining sword from the Mortal Realm.
Xia Ningxue drew the Absolute Immortal Sword, whose edge seemed as though it could slay even an Immortal Emperor.
“I don’t know who established the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion or why they left a Dao Artifact in the mortal world.”
The blade of the Absolute Immortal Sword reflected Xia Ningxue’s stunningly beautiful visage, and she too had some mysteries yet to unravel.
