He wandered the streets for a while, and not noticing anything out of the ordinary, proceeded to return to Qingtang Courtyard.

As soon as he got back to Qingtang Courtyard, he saw a Sound Transmission Talisman floating in the middle of the yard.

Shen Long grabbed the Sound Transmission Talisman, clenching his fingers together, and crushed it, releasing Lin Guang’s voice, “Taoist Friend Shen, I would like to ask you to refine a batch of elixirs for me, if it’s convenient for you.”

“Refine elixirs!”

Shen Long was slightly taken aback.

Lin Guang had purchased elixirs from him before, but this was the first time he had sought his services for alchemy.

Shen Long went outside and then to Purple Bamboo Courtyard, where he sent a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Not long after, the door of the courtyard opened, and Lin Guang came out, looking rather pale, clearly injured.

“Taoist Friend Shen, please come in.”

Lin Guang invited Shen Long in and they sat down in the Stone Pavilion.

“How come Madam Lin is not in sight!”

Shen Long asked casually.

“My wife has been injured; she has not yet recovered.

Taoist Friend Shen, did you receive the Sound Transmission Talisman I sent?”

Lin Guang’s face was full of anticipation.

“I did.

May I know which elixir Taoist Friend Lin wishes for me to help refine?”

Shen Long inquired.

“Nourishing Origin Pills.

This is a pill formula I bought in my early years when I wanted to learn alchemy.

I have materials for only one batch.”

Lin Guang took out a green jade slip and handed it to Shen Long.

“Nourishing Origin Pills!

Only one batch of materials!”

Shen Long looked pensive.

Nourishing Origin Pills were indeed sold in the marketplace, and one would cost eighty Spirit Stones; a bottle being eight hundred Spirit Stones — a rather expensive price.

Having an alchemist refine them could lower the cost.

“No problem.”

Shen Long agreed to do it.

“Taoist Friend Shen, how much should the payment be?”

Lin Guang asked, worrying that Shen Long would ask for too much.

It felt better to clarify the price.

“You just need to keep an eye out for the Essence Blood of a second-stage Flood Dragon for me.

I need it to refine a batch of elixirs,” said Shen Long.

Without the Essence Blood of a second-stage Flood Dragon, he would be unable to successfully cultivate the fourth layer of the Nine Revolutions Transforming Flood Dragon Technique.

The Essence Blood of a second-stage Flood Dragon had a wide range of uses, being a common ingredient for the refinement of Body Tempering Elixirs, so Shen Long was not worried Lin Guang would grow suspicious.

“The Essence Blood of a second-stage Flood Dragon!

Sure, I’ll keep a lookout for you,”

Lin Guang promptly agreed and handed over a green Storage Bag to Shen Long.

After chatting briefly, Shen Long left.

Returning to Qingtang Courtyard, Shen Long entered a secret chamber.

With a pat on the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist, a streak of white light flew out, landing on the ground and materializing into a white fox with green eyes.

A Green-Eyed Spirit Fox at the early stages of the first order!

After checking several times, Shen Long was certain there were no marks on the Green-Eyed Spirit Fox, and he easily imprinted his mark on it.

With this Green-Eyed Spirit Fox, treasure hunting and pathfinding would be much easier in the future, provided the fox’s cultivation level kept up, as a low level wouldn’t be much help.

Shen Long took out a Spirit Feeding Pill and fed it to the Green-Eyed Spirit Fox.

The Green-Eyed Spirit Fox was quite well-behaved, gobbling down the Spirit Feeding Pill and then lying down beside Shen Long.

Shen Long then took out the Scarlet Crow Cauldron and alchemy materials and started to refine the elixirs.

Before long, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the room.

The next morning, Shen Long once again arrived at the gates of Purple Bamboo Courtyard and sent out a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Soon enough, the gates opened, and Lin Guang came out.

“Taoist Friend Shen, why have you come over?”

Lin Guang asked in surprise.

Could it be that Shen Long had already refined the Nourishing Origin Pills?

That would be incredibly fast!

“I’ve already refined the Nourishing Origin Pills,”

Shen Long said with a smile.

Lin Guang was overjoyed and invited Shen Long inside.

Shen Long took out a green porcelain bottle and gave it to Lin Guang, saying, “Taoist Friend Lin, here are the Nourishing Origin Pills you requested.

Please evaluate their quality.”

Lin Guang took the bottle and poured out ten golden pills, each with six pill patterns on its surface.

The golden pills were plump and bright in color, with a faint pleasant scent.

After lightly smelling the pills, Lin Guang showed an approving expression and said, “Very good, Taoist Friend Shen.

I really don’t know how to thank you.”

“Just keep an eye out for the Essence Blood of a second-stage Flood Dragon for me.

We help each other,”

Shen Long responded.

“I will keep a lookout for you and notify you immediately once there’s any news,”

Lin Guang patted his chest and promised to help.

After chatting idly for a while, Shen Long took his leave.

He had purchased some alchemy materials and returned to Qingtang Courtyard.

Entering a secret chamber, he took out the Scarlet Crow Cauldron and alchemy materials, and began concocting Green Dew Pills.

A month passed, and apart from buying alchemy materials, Shen Long rarely left his residence, keeping to a regular routine.

He had concocted quite a few second-grade elixirs and planned to sell them to earn cultivation resources while also collecting materials.

One day, Shen Long was selling his elixirs at a stall in the square.

The quality of the elixirs he concocted was decent, and some Foundation Establishment Cultivators came to buy from him.

Lin Guang approached enthusiastically and said, “Taoist Friend Shen, I have news about that item.

Let’s talk more at my residence.”

Shen Long nodded, packed up his stall, and headed to Purple Bamboo Courtyard.

“Taoist Friend Shen, I know a Fairy Qin who is said to have second-grade Flood Dragon essence blood in her possession.

Whether you can obtain it from her is up to you,” Lin Guang stated.

Shen Long asked, “Fairy Qin!

Where is she?”

“I have already invited her over; let’s wait a moment,” Lin Guang explained.

Shen Long nodded and started chatting with Lin Guang, inquiring about the background of Fairy Qin.

According to Lin Guang, Fairy Qin had arrived at Profound Yin Marketplace only six months ago, with a cultivation at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

She was the deputy captain of a Monster Hunting Team.

Soon after, a Sound Transmission Talisman flew in and landed in front of Lin Guang.

Lin Guang grabbed the talisman and crushed it, causing it to self-ignite and relay a melodious female voice: “Taoist Friend Lin, I have arrived.”

Lin Guang quickly went out and invited a voluptuous red-dressed woman inside.

The red-dressed lady had striking features and skin whiter than snow.

“My name is Qin Yan, and I have the pleasure of meeting Taoist Friend Shen,” the red-dressed woman said with a bow, speaking politely.

Shen Zhu replied, “I heard Madam Qin has a bottle of second-grade Flood Dragon essence blood.

Would Madam Qin be willing to part with it?

I am willing to purchase it with Spirit Stones, or exchange it for second-grade elixirs.”

Shen Long went straight to the point.

“Indeed, I have a bottle of second-grade Flood Dragon essence blood.

What kind of elixir does Taoist Friend Shen intend to exchange for it?” Qin Yan inquired.

“Green Dew Pill, an elixir for detoxifying.

How about that?” Shen Long took out a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan accepted the cyan porcelain bottle and poured out ten cyan pills.

“Not bad, these are indeed Green Dew Pills!” Qin Yan showed a look of approval and agreed to the exchange.

She took out a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Shen Long, saying, “This is the diluted essence blood of a second-grade Red Fire Flood Dragon.”

“Diluted Flood Dragon essence blood!” Shen Long frowned, as diluted essence blood was significantly less valuable.

“It was diluted when I got it.

Without dilution, one bottle of Green Dew Pill would not be enough for an exchange.

As an alchemist, you should be able to incorporate the essence blood into an elixir without compromising its effectiveness too much,” Qin Yan remarked.

“Madam Qin, may I ask, where did you acquire it?” Shen Long pursued further.

“I got it in exchange from another Foundation Establishment Cultivator at a trading event.

I originally intended to trade it for something with a fellow daoist, but since he has been away and not returned, I kept it,” answered Qin Yan.

Shen Long nodded.

After making small talk for a while, both Qin Yan and Shen Long eventually left.

Shen Long went back to his residence, entered a secret chamber, took out the Scarlet Crow Cauldron and artifact refining materials, and began alchemy.

He released his Innate True Fire, gathering it under the base of the Scarlet Crow Cauldron and throwing the materials in one after another before closing the lid.

He was planning to concoct the Blood Flood Dragon Pill, which was mainly intended to aid his cultivation of the Nine Transformations Flood Dragon Art.

Half an hour later, a faint fragrance of the medicine wafted out from the cauldron.

Shen Long concentrated with all his might, not daring to be careless.

Having concocted many batches of second-grade elixirs, his alchemy experience was vast.

Shen Long smoothly concocted ten mid-grade Blood Flood Dragon Pills and moved to another secret chamber.

He sat down cross-legged to meditate and regulate his breath.

After the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Shen Long’s condition was adjusted to its prime.

He took out a Blood Flood Dragon Pill and placed it in his mouth.

The elixir dissolved upon entering his mouth, and a warm current rose in his abdomen.

Before long, Shen Long felt his body heat up slightly with a sense of dry heat, as if he were in a volcano.

He silently recited the fourth level mantra of the Nine Transformations Flood Dragon Art and began cultivating.
