"Ben Feng, you need to be more careful when engraving the spiritual patterns. You don't have a good grasp of the spiritual patterns yet, so you need to practice more. Ben Yan, you don't have a good grasp of the temperature, so you need to pay attention to the temperature."
Han Changying pointed out the shortcomings of his two nephews and asked them to improve.
"Yes, Fifth Aunt, nephew will pay attention to it in the future."
Han Benfeng and Han Benyan agreed in unison. After Han Changying's advice, they felt as if everything had suddenly become clear. Some puzzles that had been puzzling them for a long time were also solved, and they benefited a lot.
The books on refining equipment only record the principles of refining equipment. The principles are dead. Various difficulties will be encountered in the process of refining equipment. With the guidance of a famous teacher, it is easy to resolve the problems. Without the guidance of a famous teacher, you have to rely on yourself to explore. If you are lucky, you can resolve the problems. If you are unlucky, you will never be able to solve them in your lifetime.
The elders of a sect or family of immortal cultivators will regularly instruct the younger generations on cultivation or skills. This is an important reason why many independent cultivators are willing to do anything to join a sect of immortal cultivators. Without the guidance of a master or elder, they can only rely on themselves when encountering difficulties in cultivation, and it is difficult to resolve them. This also leads to the small number of high-level independent cultivators.
"There is no shortcut to refining equipment and puppet making. Go back and think about it. If you encounter something you don't understand, just ask. I will guide you for a while. The future of the family still depends on you. You must work hard."
Han Changying encouraged.
"Yes, Fifth Aunt, we will try our best."
Han Benfeng and Han Benyan patted their chests and agreed. It was rare that Han Changying was willing to teach them. They were so happy that they couldn't wait to hear it! Naturally, they would not refuse.
Han Changying gave a few instructions and went back to his residence to practice.
For the next month, Han Changying traveled between his residence and Shenbing Peak to guide the younger generation in refining weapons.
Han Benfeng and Han Benyan asked questions boldly, and Han Changying gave them careful guidance, and even refined the equipment herself, letting Han Benfeng and Han Benyan watch from the side while she explained.
That evening, the sun was setting and the afterglow of the sunset was floating on the Shenbing Peak.
Han Changying walked down the mountain, looking at the slowly setting sun, and she sighed softly.
Han Changming hadn't contacted her for such a long time, probably because he was unwilling to give him the Miasma-Breaking Pill. She could understand that. Han Changming had a family to support. Ye Xin, Ye Xue, Han Benfu, Han Benyong, Han Benzhi, and Liu Weiwei were all in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Two Miasma-Breaking Pills were not enough! How could Han Changming give it to her easily
"Fifth sister, I was wondering why you were not at your residence. Turns out you were at Divine Weapon Peak."
Han Changming's voice suddenly rang out, and as soon as he finished speaking, Han Changming fell from the sky and landed in front of Han Changying.
"Ninth brother, are you looking for me?"
Han Changying was slightly stunned.
Han Changming took out a green wooden box and handed it to Han Changying, saying, "I am learning a secret technique to purify medicinal pills. The failure rate is very high. I experimented for a long time before I dared to use the Miasma-Breaking Pill to test it. Fortunately, it succeeded. Fifth sister, this is a mid-grade Miasma-Breaking Pill."
“Mid-grade miasma-breaking pill!”
Han Changying took a deep breath, opened the wooden box and took a look, his face immediately lit up with smiles.
"I spent a lot of effort and used a variety of materials to purify it to a medium grade. Fifth sister, please don't tell anyone, otherwise I will be too busy to handle it."
Han Changming reminded that there is indeed a way to purify the quality of the elixir, but the success rate is very low.
Han Changying agreed immediately, his eyes filled with joy. After the magic weapon was successfully refined, other materials could be added to refine it to improve its quality. The same would probably be true for pills.
"Ninth brother, I have refined a second-level high-quality puppet beast. It should be useful for Ben Yong to go out and hunt monsters. Please accept it!"
Han Changying took out a metal ball with a shiny red glow and handed it to Han Changming.
"Fifth sister, can you refine a second-level superior puppet beast?"
Han Changming said in surprise that a second-order top-grade puppet beast was equivalent to a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building. Currently, only Han Zhangxiang in the clan could refine a second-order top-grade puppet beast.
Han Changying nodded and said, "Well, the success rate is not high. This Red Flame Flying Tiger puppet beast can release two fire spells and can also be used as a flying magic weapon. With this puppet beast, it will be safer for Ben Yong to hunt monsters."
"Then I would like to thank you on behalf of Ben Yong. Fifth sister, you can practice in seclusion with peace of mind! Try to advance to the late stage of foundation building as soon as possible."
After chatting for a few minutes, Han Changying said goodbye and left. She had been stuck in the middle stage of foundation building for more than 30 years. She wanted to go back to practice in seclusion to resolve the bottleneck.
Han Changming also returned to Qianyang Peak. With the two sets of materials, he refined a total of 18 Foundation Building Pills. He handed over 12 Foundation Building Pills to his family and kept 6 for emergency use. He could use the Foundation Building Pills as gifts when the time was right.
The pills he refined were all mid-grade foundation-building pills, mainly by adding spiritual water.
The efficacy of the mid-grade foundation-building pill is relatively strong. As long as the Han family members are not too wasteful, the chances of them advancing to the foundation-building stage are still relatively high.
The cost of the two materials is 300,000 spirit stones, and the twelve foundation-building pills can be sold for at least 480,000 spirit stones, with a net profit of 180,000 spirit stones. This is a conservative estimate. The price of a mid-grade foundation-building pill will be higher.
After refining these two batches of foundation-building pills, the family will have to spend a lot of time looking for auxiliary medicines. The outer sea is rich in immortal cultivation resources, and third-level demon pills are not rare. It's just that those auxiliary medicines are not easy to gather. The Han family does not need too many foundation-building cultivators at present, so there is no rush.
Han Changming had just returned to Qianyang Peak when Han Benyong came over. He was full of excitement and said, "Dad, the once-in-a-century Red Algae Dharma Assembly has been held in advance. The location is Qingbiefang City."
Every hundred years, a ceremony is held in the Red Algae Sea. It was originally convened by the four forces to mediate conflicts, but later it evolved into a trade fair. Monks from the four major forces would participate to exchange items and purchase resources for cultivating immortals.
"Since I have nothing to do, let me take you on a trip! I hope I can get some good stuff."
Han Changming smiled and said that when the elders of the clan were imparting knowledge about cultivating immortals, they mentioned the Red Algae Assembly. It was said that the Jindan cultivators from the four major forces would also participate. If one could take this opportunity to exchange for the things they wanted, that would be the best.
A light sound of footsteps was heard and Han Duanyu ran in with his little face red.
"Grandfather, I want to go too. I want to go too."
Han Changming picked up Han Duanyu and said in a friendly manner: "You are still young, wait until you grow up before going."
Han Duanyu is only six years old. If he were to go with us, he would not be able to take care of him if something happened.
"The daughter-in-law wants to see the father-in-law."
Liu Weiwei's voice suddenly came from outside.
"Weiwei is out of isolation, come in!"
Han Changming smiled and said that Liu Weiwei would inform him every time she came to his residence and would not rush in without permission, but Han Benzhi and Han Benyong were much more casual.
Liu Weiwei walked in, and Han Benzhi followed her.
After getting married, Liu Weiwei became much fuller-bodied, and her every move revealed the charm of a young woman. She was still in the early stages of building her foundation.
"Yes, your cultivation has improved a lot. According to your current progress, you will definitely be able to advance to the middle stage of foundation building within ten years. It is much better than Benzhi."
Han Changming praised Liu Weiwei for her diligence in practice, saying that she was much better than Han Benzhi.
