Beast Taming Tower

"Fellow Daoist, I know there is indeed news about the Soul-Returning Grass in the Thousand Machines Pavilion. However, that place is extremely dangerous. Even if a strong person at the late stage of foundation building and great perfection goes there, the possibility of death is very high. Fellow Daoist, you..."

Master Lingzhi looked embarrassed.

When Chen Xuan heard this, he was extremely happy.

"Haha, thank you for your reminder, fellow Daoist. You, Qianji Pavilion, just need to sell me the information about the Soul-Returning Grass. As for other things, you don't need to worry about them."

"Yes. However, the deal for you to buy the method to remove the dead soul curse..."

Without waiting for Master Lingzhi to finish his words, Chen Xuan said directly: "The information you provided to me by Qianji Pavilion is of little use. Therefore, I will not pay 500,000 low-grade spirit stones. However, I can swear on my inner demon that I will never tell anyone about this. What do you think?"

"Haha...Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen is truly intelligent. If that's the case, then I'll do as you say. Wait a minute, I'll prepare the Soul-Restoring Grass for you!"

Master Lingzhi was overjoyed when he heard Chen Xuan's promise.

Qianji Pavilion is a well-known large shop in Lingyun Market, and what it values ​​most is its reputation.

As long as the reputation is not damaged, the loss of some spirit stones is nothing.

Besides, the method that Qianji Pavilion provided to Chen Xuan to remove the dead soul curse was indeed a bit watery.

Facing the powerful Chen Xuan, Qianji Pavilion could not be too tough.

What's more, Qianji Pavilion may not necessarily suffer any loss by doing business with Chen Xuan.

Half a cup of tea later, another jade slip appeared in the teleportation formation.

Master Lingzhi swept his divine sense over the jade slip and handed it directly to Chen Xuan: "Daoyou, the location of the Soul-Returning Grass is in this jade slip. However, this information requires 300,000 low-grade spirit stones."

Three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!

For any immortal cultivator in the foundation-building stage, this is a huge expense.

For Chen Xuan, who is now wealthy and powerful, it is nothing.

He nodded without hesitation: "No problem."

Soon, the jade slip was held in Chen Xuan's hand.

After a careful inspection, Chen Xuan discovered that the location provided in the jade slip was actually in the core area of ​​the Ziyun Mountains.

"Although the Ziyun Mountains are a branch of the Taixuan Mountains, there are fourth-level monsters in it. The highest level of cultivation has reached the Jindan stage."

"For a Foundation Establishment cultivator like me, it is indeed extremely dangerous."

"But, for the sake of the Soul-Restoring Grass, I must give it a try."

Chen Xuan waved his hand and put the jade slip away.

But he did not take out 300,000 low-grade spirit stones and give them to Master Lingzhi. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Daoyou, does your Qianji Pavilion purchase various natural treasures?"

"Of course we will. The purchase price of our Qianji Pavilion is definitely much higher than that of our peers. If it is something of ordinary quality, our Qianji Pavilion will not accept it." Master Lingzhi said with a smile.

Chen Xuan nodded and handed the three storage bags to Master Lingzhi.

Master Lingzhi's curious mind swept over the storage bag, and when he saw what was inside, he was immediately surprised.

"So many things? You are very generous. Please give me some."

As Master Lingzhi spoke, he began to evaluate the value of the treasures in Chen Xuan's storage bag.

In just one meal's time, Master Lingzhi had completed the assessment.

"Fellow Daoist, these things of yours are of good quality. Although they are a bit messy, they are huge in quantity. I will give you a fair price, 600,000 low-grade spirit stones, how about that?"

The things in the three storage bags that Chen Xuan took out were all part of the spoils Chen Xuan had recently obtained.

It was still the least valuable batch of spoils.

Even so, it is worth 600,000 low-grade spirit stones.

This surprised Chen Xuan a little.

"Six hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones, although it is 20 to 30 percent lower than the market price, the price offered by Qianji Pavilion is fair." Chen Xuan said secretly.

After a pause, Chen Xuan smiled and nodded: "Deal!"

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xuan Chen is straightforward. After deducting the 300,000 low-grade spirit stones you used to buy the information about the Soul-Restoring Grass, I will give you 300,000 low-grade spirit stones. Is that okay?"

"no problem!"

Chen Xuan nodded.

Soon, he had a storage bag in his hand containing 300,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Chen Xuan's divine sense swept across the storage bag, confirming that there was no problem with the number, and then he left with all the things.

After leaving Qianji Pavilion, Chen Xuan did not rush back to the cave.

He secretly activated the Three Thousand Hidden Spirit Mirrors, changed his appearance and aura, and then went to another place.

After exchanging all the spoils in his hands for spirit stones in batches, Chen Xuan returned to the rented cave.

hum!

Chen Xuan waved his hand, and the protective formation in the cave was fully activated.

With a thought, Chen Xuan summoned the Purple Lightning Golden Roc.

"Keep an eye on the East Mansion for me, and don't let anyone disturb me."

"Chirp!"

Purple Lightning Golden Peng agreed and quickly disappeared in front of Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan didn't waste any time either.

Soon they arrived at the first floor of the Beast Taming Tower.

The petrified Red-tailed Scorpion King and the Ice and Fire Dragon were still lying in the cold pool, like sculptures.

As for the purple-winged spirit bat, its aura became stronger and stronger.

According to Chen Xuan's guess, within a few days, the purple-winged spirit bat will become a demon beast in the late foundation-building stage.

The only thing that puzzled Chen Xuan was that the golden sparrow swallow's eggs had been left in the cold pond for such a long time but had not hatched.

"Could it be that this Golden Sparrow Spirit Swallow egg, like the Purple Lightning Golden Roc egg, requires a long time to hatch?"

Chen Xuan muttered softly and did not continue to pay attention to the golden sparrow swallow's eggs.

After taking the time to sit down next to the cold pool, Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out all his gains for the day.

Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, then picked up the recipe for the Stone-Dissolving Elixir and studied it carefully.

After a year had passed in the Beast Taming Tower, Chen Xuan finally woke up from his state of meditation.

"The Stone-Dissolving Elixir is an elixir that can remove the petrification ability. I have completely comprehended the steps of refining the elixir. Next, I will refine the Stone-Dissolving Elixir to see if it can be useful against the Red-Tailed Scorpion King and the Ice and Fire Dragon." Chen Xuan said.

With a flip of his hand, Chen Xuan activated the Fiery Black Cauldron.

A raging flame quickly emerged from under the Fiery Cauldron.

Chen Xuan was doing two things at once, controlling the Fiery Black Cauldron while selecting elixirs.

By the time he had finished selecting all the elixirs for refining the Stone-Dissolving Elixir, the temperature in the Fiery Black Cauldron had just reached the optimal temperature for refining the Stone-Dissolving Elixir.

Wow!

Chen Xuan's mind was completely focused on the Fiery Cauldron.

At the same time, Chen Xuan threw the elixirs for refining the Stone-Dissolving Elixir into the Fiery Black Cauldron in an orderly manner.

The terrifying temperature inside instantly burned the impurities in the elixir into ashes.

Only the essence of the medicine, like a drop of water, fell rapidly to the bottom of the Fiery Cauldron, spinning continuously.

Chen Xuan's movements were as smooth as flowing clouds and water.

Soon, all the elixirs were thrown into the Fiery Black Cauldron.

In the Fiery Black Cauldron, all impurities were completely vaporized and discharged.

Only the medicinal essence was purified over and over again under the terrifying high temperature.

Two hours later, the medicinal essence was purified.

An extremely pure medicinal fragrance wafted out from the Fiery Black Cauldron.

"Finally completed the purification step. Although it was a little slow, fortunately there were no mistakes."

Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction.

The process of refining the Stone-Dissolving Elixir is slightly simpler than that of refining the Soul-Restoring Elixir, but much more complicated than other elixirs.

Even so, Chen Xuan did not make any mistakes.

This is enough to show that Chen Xuan's alchemy skills have made some progress.

"With this experience in alchemy, I will be able to refine the Soul-Restoring Pill more easily in the future. Every drop of sweat shed in the way of alchemy is not in vain."

Chen Xuan encouraged himself and continued to control the Fiery Black Cauldron to refine the elixir.

After another hour, a five-colored glow appeared above the Fiery Cauldron.

The tightly fitted top cover of the Fiery Black Cauldron was also shaking at this moment.

"Done?"

Chen Xuan's expression lit up with joy, and he uttered several mysterious spells in succession.

The lid of the Fiery Black Cauldron opened by itself with a snap.

Twelve stone-dissolving elixirs swam out from the flaming cauldron like fish.

Chen Xuan, who was well prepared, pointed his finger into the air again and quickly put the stone-dissolving elixir into the jade bottle.

It can be seen that there are four eye-catching elixir patterns on the surface of each elixir.

It is one of the signs of a top-grade elixir.

"Are they all top quality?"

Chen Xuan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.

He originally thought that even if he could refine a top-grade elixir this time, the chance of it being top-grade would only be 60%.

Unexpectedly, the rate of top-grade quality of the stone-dissolving elixir refined this time reached 100%.

This is a great thing for Chen Xuan.

After carefully studying the Stone-Dissolving Elixir, Chen Xuan did not rush to make the elixir. Instead, he sat there, carefully recalling the process of making the elixir.

Only after he had thoroughly studied every detail of alchemy did he continue to refine the stone-dissolving elixir.

This time, Chen Xuan's speed in refining the elixir was much slower.

After five full hours, the tightly closed Fiery Black Cauldron finally popped open.

Twelve top-grade stone-dissolving elixirs were quickly collected by Chen Xuan.

"So that's how it is. The trick to refining top-grade elixirs is actually to purify the essence of the elixir. The purer the essence of the elixir, the greater the probability of refining a top-grade elixir."

"However, due to the different medicinal properties of spiritual medicines, the difficulty of purification is also different. The medicinal properties of the spiritual medicine used to refine the Stone Dissolving Spiritual Pill are not strong, and the difficulty of purification is relatively small. No wonder I can easily refine the top-grade Stone Dissolving Spiritual Pill."

After understanding these things, Chen Xuan also gained a new understanding of alchemy.

He asked himself, the next time he made pills, even if the rate of top quality pills could not reach 100%, he could at least reach more than 90%.

After finishing the alchemy, Chen Xuan copied his alchemy insights into a blank jade slip while the spiritual light had not disappeared. Then he stood up and walked to the side of the cold pool.

At this moment, the Ice and Fire Dragon and the Red-tailed Scorpion King were still petrified.

Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, took out a top-grade stone-dissolving elixir, refined it, and transferred the medicinal power into the bodies of the Red-tailed Scorpion King and the Ice and Fire Dragon.

After a moment, Chen Xuan saw that the tail hook of the Red-tailed Scorpion King seemed to move.

The petrification power cast on the Red-tailed Scorpion King also began to loosen a little.

Chen Xuan was overjoyed.

"The effect of the Stone-Dissolving Elixir is quite good. I will refine a few more to see if the petrification ability suffered by the Red-Tailed Scorpion King and the Ice and Fire Dragon can be completely removed."
