"Even though I am confident that I can refine this pill, there is a condition. You must tell me in advance." Han Li changed the topic and spoke to Jiao San.
"Oh, Fellow Dragon Fifth, feel free to speak your mind.
If you have any other conditions, feel free to mention them and I will try my best to fulfill them. "Jiao San said in a deep voice.
"Fellow Jiao San, don't worry. I am not asking for anything.
I am just trying to refine a completely new pill. No matter how skilled you are, you will need a large amount of materials and practice. I am sure you know this. "Han Li said slowly.
"You don't have to worry about the materials. I have already thought about it.
Here are thirty sets of materials. Try your best. "Jiao San's expression relaxed as he took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Liu Ming.
"Looks like I was worrying too much." Han Li smiled and accepted the ring. He did not even look at it.
His divine sense could not leave his body, so it was inconvenient for him to investigate. However, it should not be a problem.
In addition, he had a new understanding of the wealth of the Samsara Palace. After all, the materials used to refine the elixir might not be as rare as the Dao Elixir, but they were not ordinary either. Thirty portions would be an astronomical figure in Immortal Meta Stones.
"Spiritual materials are easy to find, but alchemists are hard to find.
You only need to think about how to successfully refine it in ten years. You don't have to worry about the materials. If that is not enough, I will find a way to help you. "Jiao San smiled and said seriously.
"Ten years … forgive me for being blunt, but ten years is too short. I am not confident." Han Li's expression changed and he said awkwardly.
"Fifteen years at most.
This is a very important matter. Please take care of it.
Once it is done, the Samsara Palace will not mistreat you. "Jiao San waved his hand and said seriously.
"Since Fellow Daoist has put it this way, I will definitely do my best.
However, as the saying goes, man proposes and God disposes. I have only just become a Dao alchemist. You should make other plans. "Han Li said after thinking for a while.
Jiao San only looked at Han Li and did not say anything.
When Han Li saw this, he cupped his fist and said, "Time is of the essence. I won't delay any longer. I'll be taking my leave first."
"You are leaving?" Jiao San suddenly asked.
"Yes.
I will return to my cave immediately to study the pill recipe. If I need anything, I will contact you. "Han Li nodded.
"There is no need for that.
There are pill refining rooms and pill furnaces here. Fellow Daoist can concoct pills here without worry. If you need anything, I can send it over. "Jiao San waved his hand.
When Han Li heard this, he frowned and said, "I'm afraid that wouldn't be appropriate. I'm more accustomed to refining pills in my own cave residence."
"To tell you the truth, the Blackwind Sea Region isn't very safe right now.
If you were to trigger a pill tribulation on the day of pill refinement, you may not be able to escape unscathed, "Jiao San said with a meaningful tone.
"But …" Han Li did not to say it.
Before he could finish his sentence, Jiao San waved his hand and said coldly,
"If you don't have any other questions, I'll take you to the alchemy room. I believe you'll be satisfied."
When Han Li heard this, he could only helplessly nod his head.
"Alright!
Please follow me, "Jiao San said as he turned around and walked out.
Han Li looked at Jiao San's back and laughed bitterly. Then, he followed.
The two of them quickly walked out of the cave. Jiao San took out a flying carriage and carried the two of them to the edge of the mountain. After a while, they landed halfway up the mountain.
This empty space was rather large, but it was surrounded by lush and verdant ancient trees that towered into the sky. Not far away, there was even a waterfall that surged down and emitted waves of splashing sounds. The environment was rather quiet and beautiful.
There was a cave in the mountain wall in front of him, and the door was tightly shut. The door was covered with a layer of water-like green light, and there were faintly discernible runes flowing on the surface of the door, flickering gently, adding a sense of mystery to this place.
Jiao San did not say anything else. He took a few steps forward and took out a green token. He waved it in front of him and instantly, a green light shot out and entered the stone door.
The green light outside the stone door quickly disappeared and the door slowly opened.
"Friend Han Li, for the rest of the time, you can practice alchemy here. No one will disturb you," Jiao San turned around and said to Han Li.
"Thank you," Han Li nodded and stepped into the cave.
In the next moment, he raised his eyebrows, and the restriction on his Divine Sense disappeared without a trace. He could freely spread out his Divine Sense.
However, he could only use it within the area of the cave and could not use it outside.
Looking around, though the cave was not big, there was a room for alchemy, a secret room, and a medicinal garden. It was also very clean and tidy.
"This cave is not bad," Han Li turned around and said to Jiao San.
"As long as you are satisfied.
If you need anything, you can contact me at any time. I will leave this to you, "Jiao San said and left the cave.
The moment he stepped out of the cave, the door closed.
Han Li glanced at the gate a few times before heaving a faint sigh.
It looked like he was being held captive.
In the following period of time, he walked around the cave and moved his fingers at the same time.
Streaks of light of different colors shot forth, revealing themselves to be a series of formation flags and formation plates. All of them landed in various parts of the cave abode, and layers of light barriers of different colors would flash through the air from time to time.
Half an hour later, Han Li arrived at a secret room in the cave and sat down cross-legged.
He first took off the green mask on his face and then took out the red lion mask. He put it on and made a hand seal.
The surface of the mask flashed with a red light and emitted a gentle wave that quickly spread to every part of his body.
Han Li's heart skipped a beat.
Just now, he felt that his aura had been perfectly concealed. Compared to the azure mask from before, the restriction on the scarlet mask was even more exquisite.
Most importantly, the special wave of Divine Will that was produced from cultivating the Art of Cultivating the Spirit was also concealed by this wave.
"It seems that Jiao San wasn't lying. The Samsara Palace does have some hidden resources." Han Li muttered to himself with relief.
Ever since he came to the Celestial World, he would be on tenterhooks every time he came into close contact with someone, especially someone with a higher cultivation level than him. He tried his best to control his Divine Will to prevent others from finding out that he had cultivated the Art of Cultivating the Spirit. Luckily, he had not met anyone like the patrolling envoys.
Now that he had the red mask, he should be able to fool even the patrolling envoys who cultivated the Art of Cultivating the Spirit. However, he did not know if he could fool the patrolling envoys of a higher rank.
Han Li's eyes flashed and he slowly shook his head. He made a hand seal and a layer of red light appeared on the red mask. It condensed into a red illusion of a mission interface in front of him.
He made a series of hand seals and issued a few missions. They were all to find the other materials needed for the Golden Soul Pill.
After doing this, he waved his hand to disperse the red light and took out the grey Jade Slip that recorded the fourth level of the Art of Cultivating the Spirit.
Although the alchemy missions were limited to 15 years, he did not plan to start immediately.
15 years was indeed very stressful for other Heaven Alchemists. This was why he had tried to make things difficult for Jiao San. However, it was not a big problem for him.
Due to the incident at the crystal wall, the Wheel of Truth had only recovered a few Dao Patterns. However, if he recovered another 10 Dao Patterns, he would be able to reach 18 Dao Patterns. Then, he would be able to accurately control the key process of alchemy.
On the other hand, the refining process of this medicinal pill was much simpler than the Time Dao Pill from before. With the trump card of the Truth Treasure Wheel and sufficient materials to practice, he would naturally be able to sit back and relax without any worries.
Therefore, to him, the most important thing now was to cultivate the Art of Cultivating the Spirit and solve the problem of his Divine Sense.
With this thought, Han Li released his Divine Sense into the Jade Slip and carefully examined the fourth level of the Art of Cultivating the Spirit. Then, he sat down cross-legged and slowly began to cultivate the fourth level of the Art of Cultivating the Spirit.
At that moment, Jiao San was walking slowly in a black passageway many miles away from where Han Li was. His eyes were flashing and no one knew what he was thinking.
This passageway was not very long. Soon, he reached the end and a ten-meter-tall black stone door appeared in front of him.
Jiao San waved his hand and formed a spell. The black stone door slowly opened and revealed a spacious hall.
In the middle of the hall, there was a person wearing a black cloak.
On the cuffs of the cloak, there was a cross embroidered on it that emitted waves of black light.
Hearing the footsteps, the cloaked figure turned around. It was a middle-aged man. However, there was an extremely long and deep scar on his originally ordinary face. It ran from the left side of his forehead all the way to his right eye and down to his cheeks. It looked somewhat ferocious and terrifying.
"What are you doing here?" Jiao San asked coldly.
"I am here to find you.
Don't worry, no one can find me. "The man with the scar waved his hand and said.
"Is there any progress?" Jiao San's expression changed as he asked.
"Just as you expected, it is under the Red Moon Island.
However, because of the Black Wind Island, our people will not be able to get close, "the man with the scar said slowly.
"The Black Wind Island?
Do you think they can stop us? "Jiao San's voice was low.
"What if there are cultivators of the Golden Celestial Stage among the people of the Black Wind Island?" The man with the scar laughed and said.
"Could it be …" Jiao San's eyes flashed.
"According to what I know, it should be as you think." The man with the scar nodded.
"I don't care what you do. You must find out everything about the Red Moon Island before the Hollow Yuan Pill is refined," Jiao San said firmly.
