Han Changming pondered for a moment. The eight beast-raising pills were worth at least 300,000 spirit stones, which he really couldn't take out. The spirit stones from selling the monster materials were used to buy refining materials and given to Han Zhangxiang to refine magic weapons.
He took out a green porcelain bottle, threw it to Han Wenbin, and said, "These are five Seven-Star Recovery Pills. The Seven-Star Recovery Pills are used to heal injuries."
"Healing pills!"
Han Wenbin took the green porcelain bottle and poured out a pill from it. There were several red patterns on the surface of the pill.
Five mid-grade seven-star recovery pills in exchange for eight ordinary beast-raising pills. This deal is not a bad one.
"Deal, Fellow Daoist Han, if you have the chance, you can come to visit us at Jinjiao Island. We welcome you anytime."
Han Wenbin's tone was warm. A third-level alchemist who could refine mid-grade elixirs would be respected wherever he went.
Han Changming agreed with a smile, and after a few polite words, Han Wenbin said goodbye and left.
The dragon turtle let out a strange roar and carried them towards a distance, soon disappearing into the vast ocean.
"A third-grade, high-quality spiritual beast is a great way to get around."
Han Changyan's face was full of envy.
Han Changming patted Han Changyan's shoulder and said with a smile: "As long as we all work together, we will have a third-level high-quality spirit beast to travel with in the future."
The two flew back to Purple Moon Island and each performed their duties.
At Jinhulu Peak, Han Changming discussed with the clan leader about leasing a new island.
There are now four Jindan cultivators on the island. The third-level middle-grade spirit vein can sustain their cultivation. However, once Han Changming or Han Zhangxiang advances to the late Jindan stage, the spiritual energy provided by the third-level middle-grade spirit vein will not be enough to sustain their cultivation.
In addition, there are the Jade of the Spirit Eye and the Taiyi Spiritual Gourd, both of which need to absorb huge amounts of spiritual energy, especially the Jade of the Spirit Eye, which has not yet recovered.
Therefore, it was necessary for them to rent an island with a third-level spiritual vein.
Han Zhangxiang was also somewhat tempted. After thinking it over again and again, he said, "We are too short of manpower. Why don't we wait a little longer?"
"Clan leader, if you or I advance to the late stage of Jindan, the spiritual veins of Ziyue Island cannot provide enough spiritual energy for us to practice. Xue'er and Benfu are both in the late stage of foundation building. They have been in seclusion for several years. Benfu will have no problem in Jindan. If we don't rent it now, it will be more difficult to rent it in the future."
Han Changming advised earnestly that the clan leader's approach was conservative and there was nothing wrong with it, but Han Changming needed to rent another island considering the Spirit Eye Jade and Taiyi Hualing Gourd.
"Okay! What you said makes sense. You stay on Ziyue Island, and I'll go to Haoran City to see if I can rent another island nearby."
Han Zhangxiang thought it over again and again and agreed. He would have to rent an island sooner or later anyway. The sooner he acted, the better it might be possible to rent a better island. The Righteous Alliance controlled many islands, and many of them were empty.
Han Zhangxiang gave a few instructions, left Ziyue Island and headed for Haoran City.
When he returned to his residence, Han Changjun had already built the mansion and was replanting spiritual trees.
Han Changming greeted Han Changjun and strode into the basement.
He took out the Vermillion Bird Jade Pendant and injected magic power into it. The Vermillion Bird Jade Pendant then emitted a dazzling red light, drowning out Han Changming's figure.
The red light dissipated, and Han Changming appeared in the Suzaku space.
There are many spiritual medicines planted in the spiritual field, but most of them are not very old, only more than a hundred years old. They are all spiritual medicines commonly used by Jindan cultivators. These are planted by Han Changming for Ye Xue and the others. When they enter the Jindan stage, they can use them as auxiliary medicines.
Two mounds of earth suddenly appeared on the ground beneath him, and two soul-eating earthworms emerged from the ground. They had already advanced to the second-grade superior quality.
Most of the beast-breeding pills Han Changming obtained were used to cultivate thunder rhinoceros worms and Xuyuan worms. The Xuyuan worm took two medium-grade beast-breeding pills in succession and fell into a deep sleep, and has not awakened yet.
He also obtained eight beast-raising pills, which, after being purified to medium quality using the Taiyi Hualing Gourd, could be used to feed the Soul-Eating Earthworms, which had a keen sense of smell and could be used in treasure hunts and expeditions.
Han Changming took out two pale yellow demon pills and fed them.
Earth-attributed demon pills are relatively rare. Thanks to the last beast tide, a large number of second-level demon beasts were killed, and Han Changying was able to acquire some second-level earth-attributed demon pills.
The Soul-Eating Earthworms took the magic pill and burrowed back into the ground and disappeared. They usually move around near the spiritual fields, loosening the soil and increasing their fertility.
Han Changming walked towards the Lingshan Mountain. Not long after, he appeared in a courtyard full of Lingmulberry trees. Two giant five-colored cocoons were hanging on the trunks of two Lingmulberry trees.
Han Changming exchanged the Soul-Replenishing Pill from Han Wenbin for a bottle of Beast-Nourishing Pill. The Xuyuan Worm took two pills, the Thunder Rhino Worm took one, and the remaining Beast-Nourishing Pill was fed to two larvae of the Five-Colored Phoenix Butterfly.
The five-colored phoenix butterflies can only transform into butterflies after reaching the third level. Han Changming has invested a lot of immortal cultivation resources in them.
With two muffled "crack" sounds, a tiny crack appeared on the surface of the two five-colored cocoons, and the cracks continued to expand.
Five breaths later, two huge colorful butterflies appeared in front of Han Changming. They were the colorful phoenix butterflies.
It was also the first time that Han Changming saw the five-colored phoenix butterfly. After cultivating them for so long, he still had no idea what magical powers they had.
He gave them orders and asked them to demonstrate their magical powers.
Two colorful phoenix butterflies flew onto the spiritual mulberry tree, folded their wings, and a yellow light flashed on their bodies, turning their bodies yellow, exactly the same as the bark.
Han Changming released his spiritual sense, but did not detect the existence of the Five-Colored Phoenix Butterfly. It was indeed the 60th-ranked strange insect on the list of strange insects in the world. However, the Five-Colored Phoenix Butterfly was not only good at hiding its breath, but also had a relatively fast flying speed.
Han Changming walked out of the courtyard and came to the open space at the foot of the mountain, followed closely by two colorful phoenix butterflies.
"Let me see your true magical powers. Your ranking is higher than that of the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpion, so your magical powers must be quite great."
Han Changming ordered, giving them orders.
Two colorful phoenix butterflies flapped their wings, creating a gust of wind, and two misty green hurricanes swept out and hit Han Changming.
The ground beneath Han Changming began to shake slightly, and a yellow earth wall over thirty feet high broke out of the ground, blocking his way.
Boom!
Two green hurricanes hit the yellow earth wall, and the yellow earth wall was torn into pieces like thin paper by the two green hurricanes, with dust flying everywhere.
At this moment, hundreds of misty green wind blades fell from the sky and struck the ground.
A huge explosion was heard, and hundreds of long grooves appeared on the ground, with dust flying all over the sky.
Han Changming showed a satisfied expression on his face. The magical powers of the Five-Colored Phoenix Butterfly were not as good as those of the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect and the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpion, but their greatest magical power was to blend in with the environment, concealing their breath and using it to sneak attack the enemy. In a head-on battle, they would not be of much help.
What Han Changming was interested in was not their magical powers, but their ability to collect nectar and brew spiritual honey. Spiritual honey is a material for alchemy, which can be used to make medicine or wine, and has a wide range of uses.
He gave them orders to move freely in the Suzaku space, but they were not allowed to eat the elixirs. The spiritual insects that had recognized their master were very obedient, so there was no need to worry that they would disobey Han Changming's orders.
Han Changming exited the Suzaku Space, took out the Beast-Raising Pills, put them all into the Taiyi Hualing Gourd, and placed the Taiyi Hualing Gourd in the corner.
In less than half a year, these eight beast-raising pills can be purified to medium quality.
Han Changming sat cross-legged and meditated.
Two months passed quickly.
The Underground Fire Hall, a certain Underground Fire Room.
Han Changming is instructing Han Changxin on how to make an elixir. Han Changxin is going to make the foundation-building elixir. If the family wants to grow and develop, all members of the family need to work together.
Han Benfu, Han Changlu and Han Changxin are all second-level alchemists. Among them, Han Benfu's alchemy level is relatively high, but she is currently in seclusion practicing.
Han Changxin was sitting cross-legged on a cushion. In front of him was a light green three-legged tripod, the bottom of which was wrapped in earth fire.
A strong medicinal fragrance wafted out, and Han Changming didn't say anything.
During these five years, the family obtained three more materials for refining Foundation Establishment Pills, and Han Changming gave them all to Han Changxin to refine the Foundation Establishment Pills. Han Changxin had failed twice and was under a lot of pressure.
Han Changxin changed his magic spell and the fire was greatly reduced. After ten breaths, Han Changxin retracted his magic spell and the flames went out.
She couldn't wait to check it out, and after opening the lid of the cauldron, she saw three light blue pills inside.
Han Changxin let out a breath, and a look of relief appeared on his pale face.
"Brother Jiu, I succeeded. I finally refined it."
Han Changxin said excitedly that being able to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill meant that her alchemy skills had improved a lot.
"Great, Eighteenth Sister, from now on, the task of refining the foundation-building pill will be handed over to you."
Han Changming smiled and said that Han Benfu and Han Changxin would refine the foundation-building pills in the future, which would make things much easier for Han Changming.
"No problem, leave it to me. It's a pity that all three batches of materials have been used up, otherwise it would be great to open another furnace."
Han Changxin said with some regret.
At this moment, a sound transmission note flew in and landed in front of Han Changming.
Han Changming crushed the sound transmission note, and Han Zhangxiang's voice suddenly rang out: "Changming, I'm back. When you're done, come to my place and I'll talk to you about renting the island."
"The clan leader is back. Eighteenth sister, you should first recall the process of refining the foundation-building pill and strengthen your memory. Next time I get the materials, I will refine the foundation-building pill for you."
Han Changming gave some instructions and left the underground fire room.
Not long after, Han Changming arrived at Han Zhangxiang's residence.
After a few drinks, Han Zhangxiang recounted what had happened.
Han Zhangxiang planned to rent another island with a third-grade medium-quality spiritual vein, preferably one not too far from Ziyue Island.
There are two islands that meet his requirements: Golden Crab Island, which is 120 miles long from east to west and 75 miles wide from north to south. It is named after its shape which resembles a golden crab. There is no underground fire on the island. It is 120,000 miles away from Purple Moon Island. Green Gourd Island, which is 180 miles long from east to west and 120 miles wide from north to south, has no underground fire on the island and is 70,000 miles away from Purple Moon Island.
"Chief, is there an island with underground fire?"
Han Changming frowned and asked, it would be better if there was earth fire.
"Yes, but it's too far away. The nearest one is 500,000 miles away. Ye Xin can't set up a formation to teleport over such a long distance. I have already rented Qinghulu Island. There is a third-grade middle-grade spiritual vein on the island. I asked Ye Xin to set up a teleportation formation. You stay in Qinghulu Island, and De Biao and I will stay in Ziyue Island. We have rented a new island and spent a lot of spiritual stones."
Han Zhangxiang's face was full of worry when he finished speaking.
"Patriarch, have you refined a flying magic weapon?"
Han Changming remembered something and asked.
During the beast tide five years ago, they killed several third-level demon birds and obtained a lot of wings.
Han Zhangxiang shook his head and said, "No, I failed three times and wasted a lot of materials. I was too impatient. You can't get fat in one bite. Take your time! With my current level of refining, I can't refine a flying magic weapon."
"Clan leader, Uncle Wu and Xin'er have entered the Jindan stage, so their expenses must be quite high. Let's hunt down a few third-level monsters to supplement their expenses!"
Han Changming suggested that Han Zhangxiang had a 600-year-old monster-luring grass in his hand, which would definitely be able to be used to lure third-level monsters.
Han Zhangxiang smiled and nodded, saying, "That's what I thought too. Let's kill the monster on Qinghu Island! There are no tribesmen living there yet, so we can fight freely."
The two discussed the details of hunting the monster. After a cup of tea, Han Changming returned to his residence, just as Ye Xin was walking towards him.
Ye Xin's face was rosy. After two months of recuperation, she had consolidated her realm.
"Husband, is there any good news? Tell me about it."
Ye Xin saw the smile on Han Changming's face and asked curiously.
Han Changming briefly explained what had happened. Upon learning that the clan leader had re-leased an island, Ye Xin's face was filled with joy.
"Set up the teleportation array! Leave it to me. I'll go to Qinghu Island with you to determine the coordinates! But we don't have any extra third-order arrays. I've just entered the Jindan stage and can't set up a third-order array. If Uncle Daojing had entered the Jindan stage, he might be able to set up a third-order array."
Ye Xin said with some embarrassment.
Han Changming smiled calmly and said, "It's okay. Let's set up the frame first, and then find a way to make a set of third-level formations."
Han Changming was not worried. Even if he did not have a third-level formation, with the stone man, the thunder rhinoceros worm and the two of them, as long as they were not besieged by more than a dozen third-level monsters, it would not be a problem for them to escape safely.
After chatting for a while, Ye Xin set up a teleportation array in the yard, and then they left Ziyue Island and headed for Qinghulu Island.
A distance of seventy thousand miles was not far for a Jindan cultivator. In less than half a minute, they reached their destination.
The terrain of Qinghulu Island is high in the east and low in the west, and the third-level spiritual vein is located under a high peak in the east.
Han Changming used his Golden Eyes to check the situation on the island, but he did not find any other Jindan cultivators, nor did he find anything unusual.
He observed it several times in a row and found nothing abnormal, so he felt relieved.
There are still some buildings left on Qinghulu Island, but the valuables have been taken away by other monks.
Ye Xin first set up a set of second-level superior defense formation, and then set up a teleportation formation.
After setting up the formation, Ye Xin released a puppet beast, let the puppet beast walk to the teleportation array, and cast a spell into the teleportation array.
A flash of inspiration appeared, and a dazzling light appeared, drowning the puppet beast.
The spiritual light dissipated and the puppet beast disappeared.
"It's successful, husband. I will teleport back first and ask the clan leader to teleport here."
Ye Xin greeted Han Changming and walked onto the teleportation array.
After a dazzling light flashed, Ye Xin disappeared.
