Mortal Alchemy

“Greetings, Martial Nephew has met Martial Uncle Chen!” Mo Douguang saluted Chen Ping.

“Martial Nephew Mo.” Chen Ping nodded slightly.

Bai Jianjia's beautiful eyes swept over Chen Ping, and after a moment, she smiled: “Not bad, not bad.”

“It seems that Junior Brother, you have not given up on yourself after being demoted to Fuguangfang City.”

“Peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment, mid-stage of the second-tier body cultivator, even the power of divine consciousness has reached the mid-stage.”

“It's only been seven or eight years, and the speed is really not slow.”

Chen Ping was not surprised that she could see through his foundation at a glance, after all, she was a Golden Core True Person.

Chen Ping smiled:

“Senior Sister, you are too kind.”

“How did Senior Sister know I was here?”

Bai Jianjia said: “I am stationed in the branch and sensed your token, Junior Brother.”

Chen Ping suddenly understood.

Bai Jianjia said: “However, it's a good thing you came, Junior Brother, there are some things I want to tell you.”

Chen Ping cupped his hands: “I am all ears!”

Bai Jianjia said: “In a few years, the Four Great Sects will go to war with the Eastern Wilderness Monster Race. The Eastern Wilderness Monster Race is currently gathering monsters, wanting to destroy the Eastern Wilderness Immortal City in one fell swoop and drive the Human Race out of the Eastern Wilderness.”

“This will be an unprecedented great monster tide.”

“The sect has been at peace for a long time, and many Foundation Establishment disciples are not motivated. This time, the Merit List will be opened to allow the disciples to quickly accumulate merit contribution points.”

Chen Ping's expression changed.

Bai Jianjia said: “The meaning of this battle, Master, is to let Junior Brother participate, continue to hone his sword skills, accumulate merit, and make Junior Brother's reputation as a direct disciple known, so as not to disgrace Master's reputation.”

“In this way, Junior Brother can also quickly accumulate resources and step into the Golden Core stage.”

Chen Ping took a deep breath: “Junior Brother understands, I will participate in this battle!”

“Yes.” Bai Jianjia said: “At that time, I will arrange a better position for Junior Brother.

Before that, Junior Brother must make sufficient preparations.

This battle may last for ten or twenty years.”

Last time, the small monster tide in the Eastern Wilderness lasted for five or six years. This time, the great monster tide will last for ten or twenty years, which is normal.

Chen Ping's heart turned cold: “Thank you, Senior Sister, for the reminder. I will definitely make sufficient preparations.”

“Senior Sister, when will the monster tide war begin?”

Bai Jianjia said: “It will definitely break out within three years. At that time, the Human Race in the Eastern Region cultivation world will change from offensive to defensive.”

Chen Ping took a deep breath, nodded with a solemn expression, and at the same time smelled the scent of opportunity.

“By the way.” Chen Ping took out a jade slip and gave it to Bai Jianjia: “Senior Sister, please help me collect the spiritual herbs on this. It will be helpful to me.”

Bai Jianjia glanced at it, her eyebrows furrowed slightly: “Third-tier spiritual herbs are rare and uncommon. I will pay attention and let the Xingtang disciples search for them. I will tell you when I have news.”

Chen Ping's face lit up with joy: “Thank you, Senior Sister!”

If it were someone else, this sentence would probably be a polite remark, but Bai Jianjia was taught by Palace Master Gong Yue and acted decisively. As her only junior brother, she would definitely take this matter to heart.

Then Bai Jianjia left with Mo Douguang.

Meng Huang'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling lingering fear: “Golden Core True Person is so terrifying…”

Chen Ping smiled faintly: “Senior Sister Meng, if you cultivate to the third-tier body cultivator as soon as possible, you won't be afraid.”

Meng Huang'er awakened her spiritual body, so there was no big problem for her to cultivate to the third-tier body cultivator.

Meng Huang'er bit her lip:

“I will work hard.”

The two waited in the private room for a while, and Mu Luofei finally arrived.

The two had not seen each other for five years, and Mu Luofei had not changed at all.

Chen Ping said with a smile: “Senior Sister Luofei.”

Mu Luofei had a gentle smile on her face: “Junior Brother, I've finally waited for you to come out of seclusion.”

Chen Ping went straight to the point:

“Have all the materials for the Barrier Breaking Pill been collected?”

Mu Luofei nodded slightly: “They were all collected two years ago, but the materials are scattered and not in my hands yet. I will notify them later, and they will send the materials over within three days.”

Chen Ping nodded: “Then how will the refined Barrier Breaking Pills be distributed?”

Mu Luofei said: “For a furnace of pills, Junior Brother, as the alchemist, will first take 40% as remuneration, and the remaining 60% will be divided between me and them.”

Chen Ping was very satisfied with this. Most of these medicinal materials were controlled by the sect, and the sect's alchemists could not refine pills for outsiders.

Chen Ping, this kind of wild alchemist, was a treasure.

After finishing the business, Chen Ping asked: “Senior Sister, do you know that a monster tide is about to break out?”

“Huh?” Mu Luofei's beautiful eyes were puzzled: “I have not received any relevant information.”

Chen Ping said meaningfully: “...The Eastern Wilderness Monster Race is going to counterattack the Eastern Wilderness Immortal City. This battle may last for ten or twenty years.”

He told Mu Luofei the information that Bai Jianjia had revealed.

Mu Luofei's delicate body trembled, and she first smelled the opportunity: “Then at that time, will the prices of second-tier materials skyrocket?”

“That's right.” Chen Ping nodded: “So next, we have to spend all the spirit stones in our hands and exchange them for various urgently needed materials. Whether we resell them at that time or use them ourselves, it will be of great benefit.”

Mu Luofei's eyes were deep, and her tone was gentle: “It's good to have someone in the court to be an official. This time, I'm going to benefit from Junior Brother again.”

Chen Ping laughed: “It's okay, why do you and I need to say these things?”

Mu Luofei covered her mouth and chuckled: “That's right.”

Chen Ping continued: “This time, the skyrocketing price of materials is one thing, but the sect probably wants to clean up a group of disciples who have made no achievements…”

Some Foundation Establishment cultivators just want to stay in the sect all day long and are not motivated.

This time, opening the Merit List is a conspiracy!

If you want more resources, then risk your life to fight for them. Don't say that the sect didn't give you a chance.

But correspondingly, if you have the ability, this ten-year war can also give birth to many Golden Core cultivators, and even Nascent Soul cultivators.

Mu Luofei's delicate body trembled slightly, her face was a little pale, and her smile was not so natural: “My combat power…”

Under the exploitation and control of the sect, most cultivators are busy for resources, and their fighting power is probably much rusty.

Chen Ping comforted:

“There is still a lot of time. Senior Sister can concentrate on cultivating a means of attack, or even buy some good defensive magic weapons.”

Mu Luofei nodded slightly.

The news that Bai Jianjia told Chen Ping disrupted Chen Ping's plan, which was both good and bad.

At least the 60,000 spirit stones on Chen Ping's body were exchanged for three-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs. When they were refined into Cultivation Pills, he couldn't use them himself, but he could also make a lot of money by raising the price.

In this way, Chen Ping's spirit stones were almost spent, leaving only a few thousand spirit stones.

But the three-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs had already reached sixty portions.

He planned to refine some first-tier Eternal Youth Pills to earn some money, and all the thousands of spirit stones on his body were used to purchase materials for first-tier Eternal Youth Pills.

At this time, the prices of some materials had already quietly increased, but the increase was not large.

Under the calm Immortal City, undercurrents were surging.

After staying in the Eastern Wilderness Immortal City for three days, Chen Ping returned to Fuguangfang City with Mu Luofei and the materials for the second-tier Barrier Breaking Pill.

He would definitely not stay in the Eastern Wilderness Immortal City to expose and reveal his identity as a second-tier alchemist.
