22 Chapter 22 Putting a Bowl?_1

Translator: 549690339

Watching Ning Qianqiu put in the materials for ten Spirit Transforming Dans, Mu Xingzhi slightly furrowed his brows at the entrance of the hall.

“The so-called ‘the more people, the more noise,’ the fact that the junior uncle is refining multiple portions at once has still been found out,” Mu Xingzhi said.

Blocked by the Sound Isolation Array, Mu Xingzhi couldn’t hear what the Pill Sect people were saying, but the moment Ning Qianqiu took out ten portions of materials, he guessed it.

“That’s normal; there are no walls without cracks. Let’s just watch.”

Li Cheng appeared nonchalant. So what if they knew?

Without having entered a deep state of Enlightenment to communicate with heaven and earth, they couldn’t refine Emperor Grade at all.

As for King Grade, it didn’t matter.

Indeed, not long after they started, it could be seen that a large amount of black smoke suddenly billowed out from the Pill Sect’s half-Immortal Artifact grade Pill Tripod.

Clearly, the furnace had exploded.

“It’s too hard to control; I really don’t know how that senior did it,” Ning Qianqiu sighed, staring blankly at his own Pill Tripod.

Shentu Feng pondered, “First Elder, try switching to the Qi Cultivation Pill.”

The Spirit Transforming Dan was a fourth-level Spirit Pill. Since it didn’t work out, then try a first-level Qi Cultivation Pill.

Such a low-level Spirit Pill should be easier to control, right?

A gleam flashed in Ning Qianqiu’s eyes, and he nodded heavily, taking out ten portions of Qi Cultivation Pill materials and dumping them in all at once.

A moment later, the Qi Cultivation Pills were ready, with seventy to eighty pills, most of high quality, and there were even two of the finest quality!

Ning Qianqiu smiled bitterly, “This method does increase the yield compared to before, but the quality is similar. What exactly is wrong?”

“Sect Leader, do you think it could be that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect disciples deliberately misled us?”

Shentu Feng shook his head, “No, that’s our spy planted in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. Besides, the yield has increased, hasn’t it? As for not producing King Grade… we still need to continue our research.”

Everyone shook their heads. Throughout these days, their research had hit a bottleneck. Although the yield had improved, they couldn’t enhance the quality.

“We still need to find a way to observe that senior’s alchemy in order to make further progress,” Ning Qianqiu said.

Shentu Feng looked towards the Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan, “There’s another method, consuming this Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan to attempt to perceive its refining process.”

Powerful Pill Masters could discern the methods of refining Spirit Pills by observing them and differentiate the compatibility of Spirit Pills by consuming them, thus deducing the Pill Recipe.

Therefore, the Pill Recipes in the world are not secret, except for those advanced and special ones.

Ning Qianqiu nodded, “If we are to use this method, then we must request the help of the sect’s seniors. It’s impossible for us to perceive it on our own.”

A sharp light flickered in Shentu Feng’s eyes, “Exactly, so first we need to approach Sect Leader Mu to buy this Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan.”

Outside the hall, Li Cheng looked at the Sound Isolation Array set up by the Pill Sect, “This Sound Isolation Array is kind of funny, huh!”

“Junior Uncle, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, I’m just curious why they would set up a Sound Isolation Array that doesn’t isolate sound. What’s the point?” Li Cheng said offhandedly.

Mu Xingzhi was taken aback, “Doesn’t isolate sound? I can only see their lips moving; I can’t hear what they’re saying. The sound isolation is very good!”

Hmm?

Li Cheng was puzzled; he also hadn’t used Spiritual Sense, yet he heard them just like that!

Could it be that his hearing, like his Spiritual Sense, had been imbued with the essence of the Law, allowing him to disregard the Sound Isolation Array?

Possibly!

Enlightenment was indeed great; unknowingly, all parts of his body were becoming stronger.

Glancing down subconsciously, Li Cheng quickly shook his head. What was he thinking?

“Sect Leader, they’re discussing buying the Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan,” Li Cheng said.

Mu Xingzhi shrugged, “They’re getting ahead of themselves. How could that possibly happen?”

Li Cheng raised an eyebrow, “I have two, the Seventh Elder has one, and you have four. What’s wrong with selling one?”

“Eh? Let’s listen to their offer first!” Mu Xingzhi said with a dry laugh.

Just then, the Pill Sect people withdrew their array, approaching Mu Xingzhi with smiles on their faces.

Outside the hall, all the disciples retreated.

This was a meeting between the higher-ups of two sects, so of course they couldn’t stay too close.

Mmm, very sensible.

“Sect Leader Mu!”

Shentu Feng approached, clasped his hands together, and smiled, “We were just about to look for you. Our Pill Sect has an audacious request.”

Li Cheng listened quietly. This man’s tone was smooth and seemed friendly, but he could detect an undercurrent of arrogance.

Both were among the top ten sects, it was just that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was currently ranked tenth. The arrogance in Shentu Feng’s words left a bad impression on Li Cheng.

If it was truly an audacious request, the arrogance should be put aside, and the approach should be more humble.

“Please speak, Sect Leader Shentu!” Mu Xingzhi said with a smile.

Shentu Feng smiled, “Well, we were wondering if Sect Leader Mu would be willing to part with it. Our Pill Sect is willing to offer ten Tribulation Crossing Pills in exchange for that Spirit Transforming Dan.”

The muscles on Li Cheng’s face twitched. Your Pill Sect is willing to offer ten Tribulation Crossing Pills?

That’s quite arrogant as if you’re doing us a favor by offering.

It’s as if you make it sound like the Heavenly Mechanism Sect is eager to sell.

Ning Qianqiu took over the conversation, “The Tribulation Crossing Pills are extremely difficult to concoct. On average, it takes four to five sets of materials to produce one pill. With our offer, Sect Leader Mu, you would make a huge profit!”

“Indeed, Sect Leader Mu, even if it’s an Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan, it’s still only a fourth-grade Spirit Pill. Even the lowest grade Tribulation Crossing Pill is a seventh-grade Spirit Pill!” added an Elder from the Pill Sect.

The smile on Mu Xingzhi’s face became somewhat stiff. In the past, he might have agreed immediately.

But now, he wasn’t really interested in a mere ten Tribulation Crossing Pills.

“This… puts me in a difficult position!” Mu Xingzhi shook his head.

Ning Qianqiu frowned, “Do you think it’s too little, Sect Leader Mu? Never mind, then let’s offer fifteen Tribulation Crossing Pills!”

Their overbearing attitude instantly quenched Li Cheng’s interest.

Mu Xingzhi was also shaking his head.

Shentu Feng frowned imperceptibly, smiled, and said, “Sect Leader Mu, this is merely a Spirit Transforming Dan. Even if it’s of Emperor Grade, it merely helps one to advance a few minor realms.”

“But the Tribulation Crossing Pills, they can help your sect produce another Ascender!”

Mu Xingzhi looked somewhat embarrassed and was about to speak when Ning Qianqiu preemptively said, “Sect Leader Mu, fifteen Tribulation Crossing Pills, the price we’re offering is astronomical!”

Seeing the way Ning Qianqiu and the others conveyed a ‘you’re making a killing’ attitude, Li Cheng couldn’t hold back anymore!

“Should my Heavenly Mechanism Sect hold out a begging bowl?”

As Li Cheng spoke up, the people from the Pill Sect all turned to look at him.

“Hold out a begging bowl? What do you mean by that?” Ning Qianqiu asked with a puzzled expression.

“Are you giving alms to a beggar?” Li Cheng said irritably.

“Who are you?” Ning Qianqiu frowned.

They were discussing matters with the sect leader, what were you interrupting for? And with such a bad attitude.

“He is the Eighteenth Elder of our Heavenly Mechanism Sect, precisely…”

Before Mu Xingzhi finished speaking, Ning Qianqiu interrupted, “An elder with such a low ranking, why are you interfering? Do you think Tribulation Crossing Pills are cabbages?”

Li Cheng glanced derisively at Ning Qianqiu, “To me, Tribulation Crossing Pills are indeed cabbages!”

Ning Qianqiu was furious, such big talk!

How dare he say Tribulation Crossing Pills are cabbages, the audacity knows no bounds!

But Li Cheng ignored Ning Qianqiu, who was trembling with rage, and turned to Mu Xingzhi, “Sect Leader, don’t sell the Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan, take it to the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union for auction instead!”

Upon hearing this, the people from the Pill Sect all tensed up!

An Emperor Grade Divine Pill, if put up for auction at the Hundred Calamities Commerce Union, would certainly fetch an astronomical price!

A real astronomical price, not the ‘astronomical’ price of fifteen Tribulation Crossing Pills they were talking about.
