"Strange …"
Zhou Yang frowned as he looked around. Most of the people had left, but he continued to wander around.
Greedy Soul would never lie to him or miscalculate, but he could not find it.
"Where is it?" Zhou Yang could not help but ask.
"I'm not sure. The smell here is too mixed. I can't pinpoint the location of the treasure."
"Forget it, it's getting late."
After a while, Zhou Yang finally chose to give up. However, he suddenly stopped after taking a few steps. He could not help but look at his feet.
His feet were soft, and it wasn't just soft, it was very soft.
Rumble …
In an instant, Zhou Yang felt that there was nothing under his feet, and he quickly landed on the ground.
The underground area was not big, only the size of a small house. There was a huge stone above him, and from his angle, he could clearly see that there was a lot of thick black liquid on the stone.
The liquid would follow the patterns on the stone and converge at the midpoint before dripping to the ground.
Finally, Zhou Yang looked at the ground and saw a small pit filled with black liquid.
"Kid, try some." Greedy Soul smiled.
Taste it …
Zhou Yang frowned. Since he was immune to poison, he could taste it. He immediately stuck a drop on his tongue and tasted it. It tasted sweet, and there was a subtle fragrance when it entered his mouth.
"Haha … Kid, you're rich. This should be the panacea of the alchemy world — Pill Milk!"
"Pill Milk? You mean it's Pill Milk?!"
Zhou Yang was overjoyed. Pill Milk was an amazing treasure. Legend had it that it was a liquid formed after a large number of elixir materials had decayed and been squeezed over a long period of time.
However, this liquid was not Pill Milk. As time passed, it would slowly seep into the soil and absorb the essence of the earth. In the end, if the ground happened to be empty, it would drip down and form Pill Milk.
Pill Milk only had one function, and that was to replace elixir materials. Any material could be replaced by the corresponding grade of Pill Milk.
"Looking at its thickness, it should be a high-grade Pill Milk. What a pity." Greedy Soul was slightly disappointed.
"I'm already satisfied."
Zhou Yang and Greedy Soul were in completely different moods.
High-grade Pill Milk was equivalent to a high-grade Treasure of Heaven and Earth, which was second only to Rare Treasure of Heaven and Earth.
Most elixirs below grade four did not require rare materials, but elixirs above grade four required rare materials as well as low-grade materials.
Zhou Yang no longer hesitated. He immediately took out all kinds of pill bottles and began to fill them. He filled dozens of bottles, but he only filled half of them.
"Enough!"
Although he did not mind having too much, he still decided to keep half of it. After all, there was a chance that the high-grade pill milk would become Rare-grade as well. As long as there was enough time, the high-grade pill milk might become Rare-grade in a few months.
Immediately, Zhou Yang flew out of the underground cave. After going up, he moved all kinds of garbage to seal the cave entrance. After returning to the cave residence, Zhou Yang asked Pan Mao to return to his previous cave residence. He needed a private environment.
Closing the cave dwelling, Zhou Yang released a boundless amount of Astral Souls and began to absorb the energy from the Quenching Flame Pill.
The refinement process of the Quenching Flame Pill continued to flash in his mind. Very quickly, he knew the formula and refinement method of the Quenching Flame Pill.
"These materials are not very expensive, but I don't know if I can buy them here. I'll ask Pan Mao tomorrow."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yang swallowed a Quenching Flame Pill.
The Quenching Flame Pill lived up to its name. After entering his stomach, he felt his whole body burning. The Spiritual Qi in his body crackled. The most obvious thing was the small flame above his Dantian.
At this moment, the small flame was slowly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, it was only the size of a grain of rice.
"As expected, it has become purer. It's a pity that it's not even 30% pure. If it could reach 100%, my Scarlet Flame would be able to advance from the seventh level to the eighth level."
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang immediately took out another pill. However, he stopped when he put it to his mouth.
"I almost forgot that I still have the Black Demon Pill Seal. I've been cultivating for the past few days. Now is the time to give it a try."
The Black Demon Pill Seal could quickly advance a pill's level. Although it might be difficult for him to directly use it for alchemy, he felt that it was possible to advance a ready-made pill.
Immediately, he began to concentrate and formed a seal with his hands. Rays of red light shone into the pill. After a while, the pill began to float in the air.
As the seals were inserted, the pill began to "peel" in the air. After layers of black pill ash fell, the second pill mark slowly appeared.
Zhou Yang was overjoyed and quickly inserted the remaining Pill Seals.
"Buzz …"
After a while, a bright red Quenching Flame Pill appeared in front of him.
In joy, he swallowed the Quenching Flame Pill.
This time, the heat was more obvious. However, the effect was unexpectedly only 30%. Adding to the previous 60%, the effect was 60%.
"The effect of the pill must have increased. It seems that the further I go, the harder it is to refine Spiritual Qi …"
In order to verify his guess, this time he used a one-vein Quenching Flame Pill. As expected, the one-vein Quenching Flame Pill was less than 10% pure. Then, he used the Black Demon Pill Seal to make a two-vein pill.
The result was that his Spiritual Qi reached 75%.
The further he went, the more difficult it was to purify. If this continued, he estimated that he would need dozens of Quenching Flame Pills to reach the ninth level of the Scarlet Flame Flame.
He also consumed the remaining two pills after advancing. The effect was as he expected. The Spiritual Qi purity was 85%.
"It seems that I have to think of a way to get money as soon as possible."
With money, he could buy materials. With materials, he could refine the Quenching Flame Pill. With the Quenching Flame Pill, he could raise the Scarlet Flame Flame to the peak of the ninth level in a short time.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Yang found Pan Mao and inquired about the materials.
As he expected, there was indeed a place to buy materials. Moreover, it was in the free cave on the mountainside.
Immediately, he and Pan Mao arrived at the free cave.
The free cave lived up to its name. There were many people in the cave, and they were very casual. More importantly, the cave was very big. It was like a night market.
"Cave Master, although this is a free cave, it is the place with the most rules. No one is allowed to use force here. Otherwise, they will definitely die. Also, if you want to buy things here, you must first hand over a top-grade star jade to obtain a permit."
As he spoke, Pan Mao brought Zhou Yang to a counter. After handing over a top-grade spirit stone, he received a token.
After getting the token, he was then brought to the place where the materials for the pills were sold.
These people were obviously disciples of the Dragon Tail Mountain. He had seen some of them at the garbage mountain.
After looking for a while, he chose a stall that no one was interested in.
"Brat, the materials here must not be less than 10 top-grade star jades. If you have no money, go elsewhere." That person raised his head and looked at Zhou Yang with disdain. Zhou Yang smiled. He also had more than 10 star jades in his storage ring. He said, "I want to buy the materials for the Quenching Flame Pill."
"At least 10 portions at a time." That person stood up.
Zhou Yang immediately took out 13 top-grade star jades and bought 13 portions. Originally, he wanted to leave immediately. Suddenly, he saw a person rushing over.
"Boss, there's news. There's news about Brother Field Mouse. He's not dead yet." That person said excitedly after seeing the stall owner.
"What!"
The stall owner immediately covered that person's mouth and then closed the stall.
Field Mouse …
