As soon as he opened his mouth, a red-yellow flame flew out and enveloped the alchemy furnace.
Han Changming refined Song Zhe's spiritual fire and used it to make pills, which had a certain improvement in the alchemy. However, the power of the spiritual fire was relatively strong, and if the temperature was not well controlled, the alchemy would fail.
Under the influence of high temperature, the elixir quickly turned into juice, and the demon pill slowly dispersed and merged into the juice.
He used his spiritual sense to observe the situation inside the alchemy furnace while controlling the temperature.
The demon pill was integrated into the juice transformed from the spiritual medicine, and an enticing medicinal fragrance wafted out of the alchemy furnace.
Han Changming did not dare to delay. He pinched a spell and injected a spell into the alchemy furnace, and the flame became a little smaller.
······
In a secret room, Xu Ziyi sat cross-legged on a green cushion with a serious look on his face and a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
Not far in front of her, there was a red alchemy furnace about ten feet high. Billowing flames wrapped around the furnace, and a strong medicinal fragrance filled the secret room.
After exchanging spiritual water with Han Changming, she immediately rushed back to her residence to make medicine, eager to see the effects of the spiritual water.
After a while, she felt the temperature was about right, so she made a pinch of the magic spell and the flame under the alchemy furnace flashed and went out, as if it had never appeared.
She stood up and walked towards the alchemy furnace.
When she opened the alchemy furnace, she saw twenty-four light green pills inside. A strange look flashed in her eyes, and she carefully picked up a green pill and put it into her mouth.
The pill melted in her mouth, and a pure spiritual energy rose up in her abdomen, rushing around. She quickly sat down cross-legged and used her internal energy to refine the spiritual energy.
As time passed, a layer of red glow appeared on Xu Ziyi's body surface. Bits of red light appeared in the room, with a faint scent of medicine, which was very strange.
After a while, Xu Ziyi finished her training, her beautiful eyes filled with joy.
"My previous success rate was only 70%, but now it's fully completed, which increases the success rate by 30%. It's worthy of being a third-level spiritual water."
Xu Ziyi muttered to herself, looking a little excited.
"It would be great if I could get a few more bottles of spiritual water. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Han still has any."
······
In a secret room, a young man in a green shirt and a beautiful girl in a blue skirt were chatting.
"Brother Ye, there will be an exchange meeting on the day of the auction. I heard that many people will participate. Do you want to join?"
"Exchange fair? Why was it held on that day?"
Ye Tonghua frowned and asked in confusion.
"I don't know about that, but it's held on the day of the auction. Do you want to attend?"
Ye Tonghua hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said, "No, it's not like I haven't been to an exchange fair before. Just go by yourself. Be careful and don't be cheated. I have a mission to complete. My master has given me the task."
The girl in the blue skirt nodded and said, "Okay! I don't think there's anything good here. There aren't many resources for cultivating immortals in the Qingli Sea, and the Tiandan Sect is far inferior to our Wanjian Sect."
From what she said, they were disciples of the Wanjian Sect.
The Wanjian Sect is one of the top ten sects in the East China Sea. It has been passed down for tens of thousands of years and has a profound foundation, which is far beyond the comparison of the Tiandan Sect.
Ye Tonghua's face turned serious and he scolded, "How many times have I told you not to mention the name of our sect when you are out in public? Our sect has many enemies. We are out here to gain experience, not to have fun. If the enemy forces discover our identities, we will be in big trouble."
The girl in the blue skirt stuck out her pink tongue and said disapprovingly: "I know, I know, you have said this eight hundred times, I remember it clearly, it doesn't matter if I say it out loud, I just don't believe that those foundation-building cultivators in the Qingli Sea will be my opponent, and I still have a third-level spiritual talisman on me!"
Ye Tonghua sighed lightly and scolded him bluntly: "There are always people better than you. This is your first time traveling far away. Don't act recklessly. Otherwise, after returning to the sect, I will report to the master and see how he will deal with you."
Hearing the word "Master", the blue-skirted girl's face changed slightly, she smiled awkwardly, and said angrily: "Senior Brother Ye, I know I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again, don't tell my father, with his temper, he will lock me up for several years."
"It depends on what you do. If you keep a low profile, I won't tell the master. If you don't listen to me and act recklessly, then I will have no choice but to tell the master."
The girl in the blue skirt quickly assured that she would be obedient, and Ye Tonghua didn't say anything.
······
In Baidan Pavilion, Han Changshuo was reporting the situation to Yang Yuyun, and Yang Yuyun's face showed great joy.
"You did a good job, Junior Brother Han. You actually managed to get the poison sac of the five-colored sea urchin. According to the sect rules, I will give you 1,200 contribution points."
As Yang Yuyun spoke, she took out a palm-sized silver magic plate, the surface of which was covered with mysterious runes.
Han Changshuo was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Uncle Yang, isn't it one thousand contribution points?"
"That was before. The number of colorful sea urchins was relatively small. They grew deep in the sea and were difficult to find. Some people had collected the inner elixir before, but no one had collected the poison sac. The sect has increased the rewards. Take out your identity token!"
Han Changshuo showed joy on his face, took out his identity token and handed it to Yang Yuyun.
Yang Yuyun placed the token on the magic plate. A silver light flashed, and a large silver light spot sank into the token. She returned the token to Han Changshuo.
"Uncle Yang, I won't be in Shark Market for long. I want to transfer back to the sect. What do you think?"
Yang Yuyun smiled slightly and said, "Of course you can. Junior Sister Wu and the others are here too. When the time comes, you can go back with them!"
Han Changshuo's eyes turned and he asked curiously, "Uncle Wu? Uncle Yang, are you talking about Uncle Wu, the disciple of Uncle Lu?"
"That's right. Junior Sister Wu inherited the water refining method from Senior Uncle Lu. How could she not come to this Tiandan Conference?"
Han Changshuo nodded secretly. The water refining method was a rare alchemy technique, and there were very few alchemists who knew this method.
Just then, a light sound of footsteps was heard, and a young girl and a young man in red walked up.
The girl was Wu Xueli, with a cold expression on her face. The young man in red was tall and had handsome features, looking quite like a gentleman. He followed closely behind Wu Xueli with a smile on his face.
Wu Xueli has reached the middle stage of foundation building, while the young man in red is at the late stage of foundation building.
"Hey, Junior Sister Wu, Junior Brother Han and I were just talking about you, and you're here. Senior Brother Sun is here too."
Yang Yuyun smiled slightly and looked at the young man in red meaningfully.
She is in charge of the Baidan Pavilion and rarely goes to the Shark Market, but she is relatively familiar with the sect's situation.
The young man in red is called Sun Siwen, and he comes from a family of immortal cultivators. He is one of Wu Xueli's pursuers and is very fanatical, like a sticky candy. As long as Wu Xueli leaves the training room and goes somewhere else, Sun Siwen will definitely follow her.
"Speaking of me? What can I say? By the way, your last name is Han. You are not the cousin of Han Changming, the Daoist Fellow!"
Wu Xueli's eyes fell on Han Changshuo, with curiosity showing on her face.
Han Changming's performance in the past few years was eye-catching. Wu Xueli had heard about him many times from her fellow brothers and sisters. In addition, she had participated in a fighting competition with Han Changming, so she had a deeper impression of Han Changming.
Han Changshuo did not dare to neglect it, and immediately bowed and saluted, saying: "Disciple Han Changshuo greets Uncle Wu and Uncle Sun. The Han Changming that Uncle Wu mentioned is exactly my cousin."
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Han is also an alchemist. Is he in Shark Market? Introduce him to me."
Wu Xueli said casually that Haige had its own intelligence hall, and it was no secret that Han Changming was an alchemist. She had heard people talk about it and was a little curious. According to the intelligence, Han Changming was originally a talisman maker, and later changed to learn alchemy, but he was not very good at it.
"The Han family has never produced a second-level alchemist. Fellow Daoist Han is good at fighting, but that doesn't mean he is also good at alchemy. Junior Sister Wu, I just ran into a few good friends. There will be an exchange meeting in six days. Do you want to participate? I heard that there will be a lot of good things."
Sun Siwen said with a smile, his tone warm.
Wu Xueli frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Six days later? Isn't that the day the auction will be held? Why choose that day to hold the exchange fair?"
"I don't know about that, maybe it's just a coincidence!"
Wu Xueli nodded and said to Yang Yuyun, "Senior Sister Yang, how is it going? Is there any news about the poison sac or inner elixir of the five-colored sea urchin? Master is pressing us."
Yang Yuyun smiled slightly and said, "Junior Sister Wu, you came at the right time. Junior Brother Han just got the poison sac of the five-colored sea urchin worm, and it is well preserved."
She took out the poison sac and handed it to Wu Xueli.
Wu Xueli carefully examined it, nodded with satisfaction, looked at Han Changshuo, and praised: "Not bad, nephew Han, how did you get the poison sac of the five-colored sea urchin insect? Can you get more?"
"Uncle Wu, you are too kind. The poison sac was not obtained by me, but by my ninth brother."
Han Changshuo answered truthfully that the five-colored sea urchin worm was a second-grade top-grade spiritual insect, and he was only in the Qi Refining Stage, so how could he be a match for the five-colored sea urchin worm.
Wu Xueli was not surprised to hear this. Han Changshuo was only in the Qi Refining Stage. With his cultivation and skills, it was indeed a bit difficult for him to get the poison sac of the five-colored sea urchin worm. If it was obtained by the Han family, it would be almost the same.
"Humph, isn't it just a five-colored sea urchin? I'll catch two and give them to you someday, Junior Sister Wu."
Sun Siwen patted his chest and assured.
Wu Xueli nodded, with a hint of disgust in her beautiful eyes. Sun Siwen only knew how to brag. Wherever she went, Sun Siwen followed her like a sticky candy. Sun Siwen's cousin was also Lu Yun's disciple, and Wu Xueli was a fellow disciple. If not for this, Wu Xueli would have been rude to Sun Siwen.
"Okay, Junior Brother Han, please contact your cousin and see if he has time to meet with me. I want to chat with him. Senior Sister Yang, I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
After saying this, Wu Xueli turned and left, and Sun Siwen hurriedly followed.
"Disciple thanks Uncle Yang very much."
Han Changshuo bowed deeply to Yang Yuyun and expressed his gratitude.
"Oh, I didn't do anything, why are you thanking me?" Yang Yuyun pretended to be confused.
Han Changshuo smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle Yang just mentioned my disciple's name in front of Uncle Wu. If not, Uncle Wu might not have remembered me."
Yang Yuyun's words just now pushed him in front of Wu Xueli and deepened Wu Xueli's impression of him, which would be beneficial to his future development. You know, there are thousands of Qi-refining cultivators in Tinghai Pavilion, but there are only a handful of them whose names Wu Xueli can remember.
Whether Yang Yuyun mentioned Han Changshuo or not, it was all her credit that they collected the poison sacs of the colorful sea urchin worms. She just did it out of convenience, and at the same time she also wanted to take this opportunity to see if Han Changshuo was sensible.
Obviously, Han Changshuo was very sensible and knew all the ins and outs.
"That's right, Junior-nephew Han, you are very good. Remember what Junior-nephew Wu said and contact your cousin. Remember, I am helping you now in the hope that you will help me in the future."
Yang Yuyun said meaningfully.
"Yes, disciple will remember it."
Han Changshuo agreed and bowed before leaving.
······
Han Changming was focused on refining the elixir and had no idea what was happening outside.
With Xu Ziyi's guidance, he made rapid progress and was able to refine Heyuan Pills with a success rate of about 20%, which was already very good.
As far as he knew, the success rate of second-level alchemists who were just beginning to learn how to refine Heyuan Pills was mostly around 10%, with a few at 20%, and a very rare few reaching 30%.
This also illustrates one point, that spiritual water is not omnipotent, and the success rate of pills will not be greatly improved by adding spiritual water. The success rate of pills is closely related to the level of the alchemist, and spiritual water is always auxiliary.
He stayed in the alchemy room for six days and seven nights.
Han Changming extinguished the flame, opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, walked quickly forward and took a look. There were six blue pills as big as longan seeds lying in the alchemy furnace. The blue pills gave off a faint fragrance.
He picked up a blue pill between two fingers, looked at it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Calculate the time, the exchange meeting is about to begin."
He put away the pills and the alchemy furnace, changed his clothes, and walked out.
The streets were crowded with people and very lively.
A cup of tea later, he appeared in a five-story green pavilion with a plaque with three big characters "Qingfeng Pavilion" inscribed on it.
Han Changming walked upstairs. There was no one in the lobby. The second and third floors were also empty. There were two Qi-refining monks guarding the stairs leading to the fifth floor.
"Senior, you are here to participate in the exchange meeting! Please wear this mask, it will be better for everyone."
A Qi-refining cultivator handed Han Changming a ghost face mask and motioned for Han Changming to put it on.
Han Changming did not find it strange and put on the mask. According to Ye Xin, the items in this exchange meeting were of unknown origin, so participants had to wear masks and leave in batches when the meeting ended. This would be good for everyone.
When we arrived at the fifth floor, there were already thirty foundation-building monks gathered there. They were tall, short, fat and thin. Without exception, they all wore ghost-face masks, so no one could see anyone's appearance clearly.
Han Changming found an empty table and sat down, and foundation-building cultivators came up one after another.
Han Changming was secretly surprised. Logically speaking, Foundation Establishment cultivators should participate in large-scale auctions to broaden their horizons. The fact that so many Foundation Establishment cultivators gathered here to exchange ideas showed that the organizer had considerable influence, allowing so many Foundation Establishment cultivators to gather together.
Maybe some good stuff will really appear, otherwise these foundation-building cultivators would not give up the large-scale auction and instead come to participate in the exchange meeting.
