Chapter 567: 175 Another Core Formation Realm Maid_2
Su Yu didn’t share this matter with anyone, including the three women, Lin Qingxia.
Half a year later.
Su Yu refined a furnace of Golden Core Pills. The moment he executed the pill collection technique, five radiant pills suddenly flew out from the pill furnace, landing in front of Su Yu.
A pill pattern emerged on two of the Golden Core Pills, flawlessly perfect.
The quality of the other three Golden Core Pills was just a tad lacking perfection.
“Not bad!” Su Yu was delighted upon seeing this.
He then exited the retreat, presenting one of the perfect Golden Core Pills to Lin Bing. After wiping her previous memories and starting anew, Lin Bing had been practicing diligently under Su Yu’s guidance for several years. With Su Yu providing perfect quality pills and top-notch resources like Spiritual Liquids, she was finally on the verge of the Core Formation Realm.
Lin Bing had been anxiously waiting outside the alchemy room. Seeing Su Yu emerge, she immediately bowed and joyously said, “Master.”
While handing out the Golden Core Pill to Lin Bing, Su Yu chided softly, “I’ve told you, call me Pavilion Master.”
“Ah, yes, Master.”
Lin Bing stuck out her tongue but froze when she reached out to take the Golden Core Pill, staring blankly at the pill pattern that emerged on it.
Could this be…?
A perfect Golden Core Pill!?
Lin Qingxia and Yang Yumin also came over. Seeing this Golden Core Pill, they both couldn’t help but gasp, immediately covering their mouths.
However, their eyes widened in disbelief, staring at the Golden Core Pill.
Especially Lin Qingxia.
She was an Alchemist and knew very well the difficulty of refining Golden Core Pills.
Even in the gigantic city of Ten Monarch Immortal City, fine quality Golden Core Pills were rare.
As for a perfect Golden Core Pill, that was unheard of!
The three women gazed blankly at Su Yu. How terrifying was his alchemy to actually produce a perfect Golden Core Pill!?
Su Yu waved his hand, “Don’t daze out. Assess your conditions well and see if you can break through.”
Overwhelmed with excitement, Ling Bing looked at Su Yu with awe-filled eyes, resembling ripples on a tranquil autumn lake. She bowed again and uttered softly, “Thank you for your great kindness, Master.”
Subsequently, Lin Bing went to meditate in seclusion in an attempt to break into the Core Formation Realm.
Seeing this, Yang Yumin bit her red lip, suddenly more hopeful. With the perfect Golden Core Pill granted by the master, her chances of advancing to the Core Formation Realm might significantly increase.
Lin Bing shouldn’t have a problem breaking through, right?
Sure enough.
Half a month later.
Lin Bing successfully advanced from the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment Realm to the First Level Core Formation Realm, while Yang Yumin’s cultivation level reached the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment Realm. She was accumulating her foundation in hopes of breaking through to the Core Formation Realm.
Su Yu didn’t sell the perfect quality pills.
However, Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin were all his loyal servitors, and their loyalty was not a problem. It was okay to offer them pills of this quality to enhance their proficiency.
One year later.
A young cultivator walked into Yunxiao Pavilion with a subordinate. Even though Lin Qingxia personally greeted him, he didn’t ease up his attitude, remaining quite aggressive.
However, when Lin Qingxia demonstrated a fourth-grade Lower Level Formation aura, the faces of the young cultivator and his subordinate changed slightly, and they reined in their arrogance.
The young man said, “Leave a message for your boss. I, from the Jing Family, will visit again in a month. We’re leaving.”
The young man came hastily and left hastily.
In the back courtyard.
After Su Yu finished his retreat, Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin reported this incident to him.
Su Yu’s eyebrows lightly furrowed, “The Jing Family? Which Jing Family?”
Lin Qingxia pondered for a moment and said, “Remember the shop at the corner of our street, the Jing Sheng Cloud Pavilion? I met him at that shop before, he seems to be the young master of the shop.”
Su Yu wasn’t familiar with the forces behind these neighboring shops. He turned to Lin Qingxia and said, “Investigate this Jing Family.”
It was just the second day, and Lin Qingxia had already figured out the intricacies of the Jing Family.
It turned out that the Jing Family was a cultivator family mainly engaged in manufacturing elixirs, and their power did not originate from the native forces of the Ten Monarch Fairy City, but from the Yu Long Palace area.
There was a fourth-grade Pill Master in the family, and it seemed that the ancestor of the Jing Family was a True Monarch in the mid-Nascent Soul Realm. The entire family had three Nascent Soul True Monarchs, not weak at all.
This power, even the Great Moon Palace couldn’t compare to it.
“Yu Long Palace – Humph, no need to pay attention.”
Su Yu was reminded of True Monarch Bai Yan and others he had met before, and he snorted derisively. Just a Nascent Soul True Monarch family, do they think they can reign over him, showing off their power?
Inside this Yunxiao Dan Pavilion, he had set up quite a few of his master’s formations.
Even if the ancestor of the Jing Family came personally, he wouldn’t fear in the slightest.
On the other side.
The young man and his followers returned to the store on the street. One of them furrowed his brows slightly, “Young Master, there is a lower fourth-grade formation in the Yunxiao Dan Pavilion. It’s not to be underestimated.”
The youth snorted, “It’s just a lower fourth-grade formation. Can this scare you?”
“The Yunxiao Dan Pavilion is not simple. How many high-grade three-tier elixirs have they been selling over the years? According to your population estimate and calculation, they can earn at least 30,000 to 40,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones a year!”
“It’s even more powerful than our Jing Family store, stealing many of our customers.”
“This account can’t just be settled like this.”
The subordinate cautiously said, “What if there’s a True Monarch behind him?”
The youth frowned, “That’s why I didn’t barge in directly! But they only refine tier-three elixirs, and no tier-four elixirs have been reported. Even if there is a Nascent Soul Realm True Monarch behind Yunxiao Dan Pavilion, it can only be a first or second-layer Nascent Soul Realm True Monarch.”
“What’s there to fear?”
After a pause, the youth continued, “I’ll invite my second uncle over, then we’ll probe Yunxiao Dan Pavilion to see what’s what!”
Thinking about Yunxiao Dan Pavilion gradually gaining popularity over the years, selling a large number of high-grade three-tier elixirs, acquiring some fame in the vicinity, the youth’s eyes lit up with greed.
These high-grade third-tier elixirs shouldn’t just be sold like this!
If such resources were controlled by the Jing Family—
“Perhaps, I can double, or even triple the business of the black market!” The youth’s heart was ablaze with ambition. Once he gained recognition, he could use this to establish relations with various major powers.
What’s stopping him from achieving great things then?
With such achievements, who among the other heirs of the family could compare with him?
While Yunxiao Dan Pavilion’s fame was still modest and hadn’t been discovered by other major forces, he must gain control over the Pill Master behind it!
Yunxiao Dan Pavilion.
Su Yu checked the lower fourth-grade formation five times, which he acquired from his master’s formation banners on Dayu Peak. With his strength, controlling these lower fourth-grade formations wasn’t difficult.
There were generally two ways of setting up formations, one with formation banners and the other with formation bases.
Formation banners were fully functional formation techniques that could be easily set up without an Array Master, because the formation had already been refined into the banners, allowing for easy set-up.
But these finished formation techniques tended to be of average power.
Formation bases are the most common way for Array Masters to set up formations. However, this method generally requires some time. The more powerful and complex the formation, the longer it takes to set up, and it can’t be done without an Array Master.
Su Yu was only a high-grade three-tier Array Master; naturally, he couldn’t set up his own lower fourth-tier formations.
But it was no problem to use the finished formations left by his master on Dayu Peak.
The five layers of the lower fourth-grade formation combined into an integrated formation, its power could definitely force back a True Monarch at the peak of the third layer of the Nascent Soul Realm.
After checking it, Su Yu muttered to himself, “Jing Family, you’d better not mess with me.”
He turned and entered the alchemy room, continuing to refine the three-tier elixirs to accumulate some inventory for the pavilion.
It wasn’t until half a month later, in the secret chamber, within the artifact palace, that Su Yu looked in astonishment at the ancient beast egg in front of him. The egg was radiating a brilliant glow, and from the dense patterns on the egg, a deep-blue glow burst out.
A stunningly strong burst of life force erupted from the ancient spirit beast egg.
“Crack!”
Su Yu heard a faint sound of the eggshell cracking.
