The three Pill Elders gathered together, led by Pill Elder Du.
Pill Elder Lu said discontentedly, "If he goes on like this, how can we sell our pills?"
"This kid is too much. Isn't he cutting off our source of income?" Bao Chunya howled.
"Cutting off one's source of income is like killing one's parents. Old Du, don't you have any objection?" Pill Elder Lu was the most worried.
His specialty pills were also pills similar to the Essence Energy Pill. With Bao Chunya in front of him, the price of the pills he refined was already very low.
Now that Ye Tianze had appeared, the price of his pills would naturally be cut down.
But as soon as Ye Tianze came, he no longer had any taboos. If he didn't stop refining Elemental Spirit Pills, it would be tantamount to cutting off his and Bao Chunya's source of income.
Pill Elder Du pondered for a moment and said, "He's new here and lacks Origin Stones. It's understandable that he wants to refine more pills to earn some Origin Stones."
"Old Du, it's easy for you to say. You're refining healing pills. Naturally, you don't have to worry about not being able to sell them."
Bao Chunya said, "What we are refining is a type of Vitality Elixir that can enhance one's cultivation. Naturally, it is different. Moreover, if he were to refine a large amount of Vitality Elixir, wouldn't it lower our price?"
"Yes, Old Du, we can't let him break the rules."
Pill Elder Du said, "Originally, we only needed to refine pills three times a month to earn a huge amount of Origin Stones. But now it's different. We can't just throw away our face and compete with him. If we really refine pills day and night, won't the price get lower and lower?"
"Yes, if one day he obtains a pill formula for refining healing pills, it'll be a threat to Old Du!"
Bao Chunya said, "We're of noble status. How can we lower ourselves and refine pills day and night like ordinary elders?"
Pill Elder Du frowned and was silent for a long time. Then he said, "Let him refine pills for a month. If he's still like this after a month, we'll report to the elders and ask the three Pagoda Masters and the Grand Elders to make a decision."
Hearing this, the two could only do so.
The three Pill Elders sank into worry, but the Elders of the Nine Story Pagoda were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Apart from Eight or Nine Stars and even Grand Elders who could buy Immortal Pills, it was impossible for people like them to buy Immortal Pills.
Ye Tianze could be considered to have set a precedent, as long as he could gather enough earth attribute materials, he could refine the Elemental Spirit Dan.
At first, some Elders didn't believe it, but as some Elders held the idea of giving it a try and refined a furnace of Earth Elemental Primordial Spirit Pills, the Elders immediately went out to collect materials as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Although only the cultivators of the earth element had obtained the most practical benefits, the cultivators of the other elements were not idle either.
All of them followed to collect the materials required for the Earth Elemental Spirit Dan. Although they had no use for it, if they sold it to those Earth Elementals, they could still make a huge profit.
After all, this was an immortal pill that could only be encountered but not sought after.
At first, Dan Elder Du didn't care much about it. He thought that even if Ye Tianze wanted to refine it, he didn't have the energy to do so.
Refining a furnace of Immortal Pills a day required a lot of energy, and it would be very difficult to recover even after several days. The so-called non-stop refining Immortal Pills also required energy to recover.
But as time passed, he soon found out that this was not the case.
The first one to come to him was Dan Elder Bao. Seeing his flustered face, Dan Elder Du strangely asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's not good," Bao Chunya said, "Old Du, do you know how many Elemental Spirit Pills this Ye Tianze refined in a day?"
"How many?" Dan Elder Du strangely asked.
"More than thirty. In this half month, he refined more than four hundred Elemental Spirit Pills!" Bao Chunya said.
Dan Elder Du sucked in a breath of cold air and asked, "Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true. I didn't believe it at first, but I've been looking for people to monitor Ye Tianze, and it's true!" Bao Chunya said.
Dan Elder Du calculated for a moment, "So, doesn't he have to refine four furnaces of Immortal Pills a day, and each furnace produces seven or eight, or even nine Immortal Pills?"
"Almost." Bao Chunya said.
Dan Elder Du didn't believe it at all, but soon Dan Elder Lu also came, and said the same thing. Dan Elder Du finally believed it.
He frowned and said, "This is me, refining one furnace a day, that's the limit. Where does he get so much energy?"
Both of them shook their heads. After Ye Tianze became Dan Elder, he had his own special alchemy furnace and alchemy room. Naturally, they couldn't know what was going on inside.
However, the alchemy room had a lot of Immortal Pills coming in every day, which were offered to the nine-story pagoda. In addition, the cultivators who asked him to refine Immortal Pills also got the same Immortal Pills.
From this, it could be calculated how many Immortal Pills he refined every day.
"What's even more frightening is that among the Elemental Spirit Pills he refined, there was not a single Low Grade Immortal Pill, and even Middle Grade Immortal Pills were very rare!"
Old Lu Dan said, "No one wants to buy the Yuan Qi type immortal pills that we refine. Old Du, if you don't do anything about it, when he refines a healing type pill in the future, there will be no place for us in the alchemy room."
"Yes, Old Du. Now, from the top to the bottom of the nine-story pagoda, everyone is bowing to him. Even the Grand Elders are respectful to him. With such talent in alchemy, such exuberant energy, and such a large number of Immortal Pills, we …"
Bao Chunya said worriedly.
Dan Elder Du fell silent. A tense atmosphere filled the air. Both Dan Elders knew that Dan Elder Du also regarded Ye Tianze as a threat at this moment.
Dan Elder Du looked kind, but his strength was not weaker than a Seven Stars Elder, and he even had the possibility of refining Immortal Pills.
Being able to become the head of the alchemy room, he naturally didn't rely solely on his talent in alchemy to get to where he was today.
"Have you investigated this kid's origin?" Dan Elder Du asked.
"Well …" Dan Elder Lu stammered. Obviously, he hadn't investigated much.
"He used to be Lu Aoshan's servant. Rumor has it that Lu Aoshan only took him as a servant a few months ago. It seems that he came up from the fifth floor not long ago."
Bao Chunya said.
"Came up from the fifth floor?"
Dan Elder Du's face was cold. "But he became a One Star Elder in such a short time. Many people can't become a One Star Elder even if they work as a servant for a hundred years. With such talent, he can't be a nobody at the foot of the mountain. Go, send someone to the foot of the mountain to investigate!"
"In fact, Long Aotian has already sent someone to the foot of the mountain to investigate. There should be results in a few days," Dan Elder Lu said.
"Long Aotian?" Bao Chunya said strangely, "Why didn't I know?"
"He came to you several times before, but he knew you were in prison, so … he didn't ask you to do anything."
Dan Elder Lu said, "He couldn't find Old Du, so he came to me."
"We still have to be prepared. Not only do we need to find out where he comes from, but we also need to know his weakness. It's impossible that he doesn't have any enemies."
Dan Elder Du said, "If we recklessly go to Grand Elder and Pagoda Master, Pagoda Master may not be partial to us. But if we can get hold of his weakness, haha!!!"
