"Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, who taught you this non-poisonous pill refinement technique?"
Elder Xu Chang asked.
He knew that his question was a little presumptuous, but he also understood that he had to ask it.
"Elder, it's my Second Senior Brother, but forgive me for not being able to tell you in detail."
Ye Ping could tell him that it was his Second Senior Brother who taught him alchemy.
However, he couldn't tell him who his Second Senior Brother was.
"That's alright." Elder Xu Chang nodded. He just needed to know who taught him the alchemy technique. However, even so, Elder Xu Chang was still a little surprised.
'Did Ye Ping's Second Senior Brother teach me the non-poisonous pill refinement technique? Does that prove that Ye Ping is a peerless alchemist? ' 'Since he calls me Senior Brother, I reckon he can't be too old. '
Thinking of this, Elder Xu Chang couldn't help but feel a little upset. He initially thought that he was the best alchemist in Jin Nation, but he didn't expect that there were so many hidden talents in Jin Nation. He had indeed been a little arrogant in the past.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, can this method be used to refine pills in batches? I'm referring to basic pills, not Foundation Establishment pills. I'm referring to the simplest Qi and Blood pills and Physique pills. "
Elder Xu Chang said, but when he said that, he was a little nervous.
At that moment, Ye Ping couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
'Can I refine them in batches? '
He really didn't know how to answer.
The non-poisonous pill refinement technique did not require the help of medicinal herbs, pill furnaces, alchemy fire, or even pill formulas. As long as he willed it, he could attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to refine it.
However, the effect of the pill depended on one's own spiritual energy.
For example, the supreme-grade Foundation Establishment pill basically drained all of his spiritual energy.
Hence, at the thought of this, Ye Ping couldn't help but shake his head and say, "Elder Xu, it's extremely difficult to do it alone, but theoretically speaking, if tens of thousands of alchemists have mastered the non-poisonous pill refinement technique, it shouldn't be difficult to refine such basic Qi and Blood pills and Physique pills."
Ye Ping answered. He felt that it would be difficult to refine them in batches. After all, cultivators had limited Dharmic powers.
For example, if he refined the so-called Qi and Blood pills and Physique pills, he would probably only be able to refine a few thousand of them. However, it would be difficult to refine them in batches.
"Isn't it difficult for tens of thousands of alchemists to master the art of non-poisonous alchemy?"
Elder Xu Chang swallowed his saliva. He could understand what Ye Ping meant, but he still wanted to be more specific. Hence, he continued to ask.
"Hypothetically, I mean hypothetically, Fellow Daoist Ye Ping. If we invite 10,000 Foundation Establishment realm alchemists to learn this non-poisonous pill refinement technique and we have enough medicinal herbs, can we refine it in batches?"
When Elder Xu Chang said that, his heart was pounding, and his eyes were full of anticipation.
"This …" Ye Ping was silent for a while. In the end, he said, "It has nothing to do with medicinal herbs. The non-poisonous pill doesn't require medicinal herbs, but it can be replaced with Spirit Stones. With enough Spirit Stones, it's theoretically possible for 10,000 Foundation Establishment realm alchemists to refine millions of non-poisonous Qi and Blood Pills in a day."
Ye Ping did not give a definite answer, but it was enough.
Elder Xu Chang was so excited that he couldn't help but clench his fists and look at Ye Ping with excitement in his eyes.
Even Elder Xu Chang could not suppress the excitement in his eyes.
However, Elder Xu Chang soon calmed down again.
Firstly, the non-poisonous pill refinement technique was definitely extremely difficult to learn, and it was impossible for everyone to learn it.
Secondly, there were 10,000 Foundation Establishment realm alchemists. There were not many Foundation Establishment realm cultivators in the first place, and there might be many in the entire Jin Nation, but there were not many Foundation Establishment realm cultivators that could be controlled in Jin Nation. Most of them were in the major sects, and if they were to be mobilized rashly, it would definitely arouse suspicion. Besides, they had to be alchemists, which would basically be even more difficult to achieve.
Hence, it was only theoretical.
However, it might be difficult for Jin Nation, but it was not difficult for the Great Xia Dynasty. At most, Jin Nation would be offered to the Great Xia Dynasty. With the ability of the Great Xia Dynasty, they would be able to mobilize 100,000 or even a million Foundation Establishment realm alchemists, let alone 10,000.
However, at that level, it was not something that Xu Chang could come into contact with.
At the thought of this, Xu Chang asked the third question, which was also the most important one.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, can you … let the academy take a look at this non-poisonous pill refinement technique?"
That was the third question, which was also a request. To be honest, when Xu Chang said that, he felt a little ashamed.
Ye Ping was a student of the Jin Nation Academy, and not only did he not learn anything, he even gave the elders some pointers. That was already embarrassing enough. Yet, he still wanted him to contribute his alchemy technique?
To put it bluntly, the Jin Nation Academy was shameless.
Hence, after Xu Chang said those words, he did not dare to look at Ye Ping directly. Even if he had lived for hundreds of years, he was too ashamed to do so.
Indeed, when Ye Ping heard those words, he frowned slightly too.
It was not that he felt that the Jin Nation Academy was greedy, but that the alchemy technique was imparted to him by Xu Luochen.
To put it bluntly, without Xu Luochen's approval, Ye Ping would never spread the secret technique. He would rather die than to spread it.
Besides, he had the background of the Qingyun Dao Sect.
"Please forgive me, Elder, this technique was imparted to me by my Senior Brother. I didn't create it myself, so I don't have any right to hand over the alchemy technique."
Ye Ping directly rejected the other party's request.
Although he was polite and paid attention to etiquette, he was not a fool. Just because he could share some things, it did not mean that he could give everything away.
Hearing Ye Ping's words, Elder Xu Chang was not surprised. Instead, he seemed to have a hunch.
After all, it made sense. Not only did Ye Ping not learn anything in the academy, but he even asked him to hand over the extremely precious alchemy technique. Who would be willing to do that?
However, Xu Chang was also very clear about how important the non-poisonous alchemy technique was.
Thinking of this, Xu Chang couldn't help but speak up.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, although I understand that this is indeed a bit overboard, this matter involves the Jin Nation, the Great Xia Dynasty, and the people of the world."
"I know that these words are a little hypocritical, but that's what I really mean. How about this, Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, you can ask your Senior Brother and see if he's willing to share it."
"As long as your Senior Brother is willing to share it, the Jin Nation and even the Great Xia Dynasty are willing to exchange for this supreme alchemy technique at all costs."
Xu Chang bit the bullet and said.
There was no other way. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the non-poisonous pill involved too much, he really wouldn't be willing to ask.
He had already lived for hundreds of years and was about to die. Fame and fortune were all insignificant to him.
As soon as he said that …
Ye Ping fell silent.
He could tell what Elder Xu Chang meant. The non-poisonous alchemy technique was too meaningful and they didn't want to give it up.
However, Ye Ping was also very clear that the alchemy technique could not be casually given to outsiders.
While Ye Ping was hesitating, Elder Xu Chang continued to speak.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Ping, just ask your Senior Brother or bring him over. We can have a good talk. This matter is really too important. I'm willing to guarantee with my life that the academy will not snatch it no matter what."
"Everything I do is for the people of the world, for the people of the Great Xia Dynasty, and for the people of Jin Nation. I have no selfish motives and I don't care about fame and fortune."
At this point, Elder Xu Chang was so agitated that he knelt in front of Ye Ping and bowed deeply to Ye Ping. His forehead was touching the ground to show his sincerity.
"Elder Xu, please get up, please get up."
Ye Ping hurriedly helped Elder Xu Chang up.
He sighed and then said, "Elder Xu, you care about the world. Your character really makes me sigh with emotion. However, I can't promise you anything regarding the non-poisonous pill concoction technique. However, I can go back and ask my Elder Brother about it."
"If he's willing, everything can be discussed, but if he's unwilling, let's drop the matter."
Ye Ping said. He had decided to make a trip back.
He had been in the academy for more than half a month.
Before he came, he had already said that he would go back every once in a while.
Now that he had taken this opportunity, he could go back to see his master and Senior Brothers. He wondered if Su Changyu had returned.
More importantly, Ye Ping felt that he had to ask his master about the secret of the Qingyun Dao Sect.
If there was really some shameful history, he would have to keep a low profile in the future. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself if he caused trouble for the sect.
"Okay, okay, okay."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye Ping. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye Ping. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ye Ping."
Elder Xu Chang kowtowed a few more times on the ground.
Ye Ping couldn't pull him up no matter how hard he tried.
Soon, Elder Xu Chang left because he was going to explain the situation to the Academy Master.
After Elder Xu Chang left, Ye Ping left too.
However, Ye Ping did not leave the Jin Nation Academy.
After leaving the Jin Nation Academy, Ye Ping did not plan to fly back and instead planned to use the array formation to save time and practice the Dao of array formations.
However, Ye Ping knew how to set up the Teleportation Array, but he did not have any array artifacts or the corresponding materials to set up the array formation. Hence, Ye Ping planned to look for Li Yue.
As the princess of Jin Nation, she should have some Spirit Stones on her.
After walking out of the courtyard, Ye Ping met an acquaintance, but it was not Li Yue but Mo Xuan.
"Junior Sister Mo Xuan."
Ye Ping called out loudly.
"What's the matter? Senior Brother Ye Ping. "
Hearing Ye Ping's voice, Mo Xuan, who was not far away, scurried over.
"Junior Sister Mo Xuan, do you have Spirit Stones on you? Lend me some. "
Ye Ping seemed rather straightforward. After all, in his opinion, the disciples who could come to the Jin Nation Academy were all geniuses who came from extraordinary backgrounds. A few Spirit Stones were nothing to him.
"Huh?"
Mo Xuan was slightly stunned.
"I want to borrow some Spirit Stones from you."
Ye Ping continued to speak casually.
In the next moment, Mo Xuan smiled awkwardly but politely.
"Senior Brother Ye Ping, I have a nickname outside. Do you know what it is?"
Mo Xuan said with some embarrassment.
"What is it?"
Ye Ping was curious.
"Mo Xuan doesn't have it."
Mo Xuan answered.
"What do you mean?"
Ye Ping's eyes were full of bewilderment.
He did not understand what Mo Xuan meant.
"I have no money, no feelings, and no looks."
Mo Xuan lowered her head and said softly, looking slightly awkward.
It was not that she was reluctant to lend Ye Ping, but rather, she had spent all her savings to come to the Jin Nation Academy. Now, she did not even have a single tael of silver, let alone Spirit Stones.
"Uh … it's okay, I'll go borrow some from Junior Sister Li Yue."
Ye Ping did not know what to say, but he could tell that Mo Xuan was really poor.
"Senior Brother Ye, don't misunderstand, I really don't have it."
Mo Xuan explained.
"Okay, it's okay, I'm not that kind of person."
Ye Ping smiled bitterly and then left to borrow some Spirit Stones from Li Yue.
At the same time …
In the Academy Master's Hall.
Xu Chang had already informed Li Mocheng of all the problems.
In the Academy Master's Hall.
After hearing what Xu Chang said, Li Mocheng couldn't help but be shocked.
"In other words, there is hope to refine non-poisonous pills in batches?"
Li Mocheng's body trembled slightly. He did not expect that non-poisonous pills could really be refined in batches.
"Academy Master, Ye Ping said that it is theoretically feasible, but after thinking about it, I think so too. As long as we know how to refine non-poisonous pills, we can indeed refine them in batches."
"Although it's not as efficient as the Great Qian Dynasty's Cosmic Creation Cauldron, as long as we can refine non-poisonous pills, it will be incomparable."
Elder Xu Chang answered with his years of experience in alchemy.
"Okay, in this case, I'll go to the Jin Nation palace and look for the king of Jin Nation."
"Elder Xu, I'll leave the matters in the residence to you. Thank you for your hard work."
Li Mocheng nodded.
He knew that this matter was too important and he had to make a trip to the king of Jin Nation. If this matter could really be done, the disappearance of the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty in Jin Nation would not be a big deal.
The non-poisonous pill was better than ten unfavored princesses, and the Great Xia Dynasty could only reward Jin Nation. In fact, the Great Xia Dynasty would even let Jin Nation carry out a secret plan. By then, Jin Nation would also benefit from it.
Besides, if Jin Nation did not … there was a glimmer of hope that Jin Nation could really pursue and become a dynasty.
That was not impossible.
"Academy Master, take care, I will take care of everything in the academy."
Elder Xu Chang nodded and then watched Li Mocheng leave.
Just like that, two hours passed.
In the Jin Nation Academy.
Ye Ping returned to his residence.
He was holding a bag in his hand with hundreds of superior-grade Spirit Stones in it.
The princess was indeed a princess who was extremely generous. She casually gave out hundreds of superior-grade Spirit Stones. She was really rich.
With the superior-grade Spirit Stones …
Ye Ping did not prepare any array artifacts or materials.
Ye Ping entered the room.
According to the array diagram in his mind, he threw out twelve superior-grade Spirit Stones and at the same time, he locked onto the specific location of Qingzhou. He could not accurately lock onto the Qingyun Dao Sect because there were no landmarks.
Ye Ping could only lock onto the territory of Qingzhou, which was a distance of about 25,000 kilometers.
There was a deviation of about 1,000 kilometers, but it was not a big problem. With his current cultivation level, he would be able to rush back to the Qingyun Dao Sect in less than half a day.
If he was lucky, he would be able to reach the vicinity of Baiyun Ancient City.
At that moment, after Ye Ping set up the array stones, the spatial array formation in his body flashed.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Ping's figure in the room suddenly disappeared.
Jin Nation.
In Qingzhou.
On a desolate and uninhabited mountaintop.
Three silhouettes appeared here.
There were two men and one woman.
The man in the lead was an old man wearing black clothes and a black conical bamboo hat.
There were two people behind him, one of whom Ye Ping would be very familiar with if he were there.
It was Wang Minghao.
As for the other woman, she was dressed in green, and her beautiful face appeared extremely calm. Her hands were bound, but she did not seem to be panicking at all. On the contrary, she was very calm as she spoke.
"I don't know who instructed you to capture me, but I'm just an unfavored princess. Even if you capture me, you won't be able to get any benefits."
"Let me go, I won't tell anyone about this matter, and we can even cooperate. Those who instigated you to capture the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty are either traitors or members of the demonic cult."
"If we join forces and annihilate these demonic cultivators in one fell swoop, I think the Great Xia Dynasty will definitely give you enough rewards. Besides, we won't have to hide. What do you think?"
The woman in green said. She was beautiful and had an extraordinary aura. Even though she had become a prisoner, she did not panic at all. Instead, she was calm and composed. She even discussed the conditions with the two of them, showing that she had excellent mental fortitude.
"Tenth Princess, you really deserve to be the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty. If it were anyone else, they would probably have yelled or given up in despair."
"Not only are you calm, but you also have a clear mind. To be honest, if you were captured by someone else, they might really be persuaded by you, but there's one thing you should be clear about."
"You have such a lofty status. Since I dared to capture you, I've already prepared for all the consequences. I don't care about what you've said. What reward from the dynasty? What justice? Do you think that if I wanted fame and fortune, I would have captured you despite knowing your identity?"
The old man in black said in a calm tone while looking in front of him.
However, Wang Minghao, who was behind him, did not listen to them at all.
It had been a few months since the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet, and ever since he lost to Ye Ping, Wang Minghao had been feeling a little depressed.
His Dao Heart had been dealt a blow, but he still wanted to fight with Ye Ping again.
He wanted to defeat Ye Ping to prove his strength and regain his confidence.
In fact, in order to defeat Ye Ping, he even used the fire of the Earth Flame to temper his physical body. The process was extremely painful, but he managed to condense an extremely powerful physical body.
Wang Minghao felt that he had lost to Ye Ping not because of the Sword Dao, but because of his physique.
Yes, it was his physique. The fact that Ye Ping could send him flying with a single sword was enough to prove that Ye Ping's swordsmanship was not strong, but that his physique was stronger than ordinary people.
In other words, no matter how powerful his swordsmanship was, Ye Ping could send him flying with a single sword strike. So what if his swordsmanship was superb?
Hence, during this period of time, he had been cultivating frantically just so that he could defeat Ye Ping the next time he met him.
He was looking forward to it!
He looked forward to meeting Ye Ping again one day to wash away the humiliation.
As for the matter at hand …
Wang Minghao didn't care at all.
He wasn't afraid of the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty at all.
"We're here."
At this moment, Wang Minghao's master suddenly spoke. He stopped on the barren mountain.
He spoke slowly.
After looking around, Wang Minghao's master continued to speak.
"Minghao, as long as you hand the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty to them, you will be able to get what you need. By then, I will help you build your Foundation Establishment physical body. That way, you will be truly invincible."
"I never expected that someone with an extremely strong physique would appear in the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet. However, even if I don't help you build your Foundation Establishment physical body, with your current strength, you can defeat Ye Ping in one move if you meet him again. Do you understand?"
The old man in black said slowly.
He was full of confidence.
"I understand."
Wang Minghao nodded with confidence in his eyes.
However, at this moment …
The space was distorted.
In an instant, the old man in black looked over with some vigilance in his eyes.
Soon …
A figure appeared.
At the next moment …
Wang Minghao froze.
