Ning Cheng then introduced Ba Meng to Cheng Houtian. Ba Meng had admired Cheng Houtian for a long time. Hearing Ning Cheng's introduction, he quickly stood up and said, "Ba Meng greets Big Brother Houtian."
Ba Meng and Ning Cheng were friends, and Cheng Houtian had become famous tens of thousands of years earlier than him. Although both of them were at the Primordial Dao Realm, Ba Meng was at the early-stage Primordial Dao Realm, while Cheng Houtian was at the full-stage Primordial Dao Realm.
Cheng Houtian quickly waved his hand and said, "Ning Cheng and I are friends. You can just call me by my name. Just call me Houtian. Brother Ning Cheng, you can do the same. I estimate that in a few years, Ning Cheng's cultivation will be higher than ours. "
Cheng Houtian wasn't talking nonsense. Ning Cheng had seen his cultivation the first time he met him, and what was his cultivation now? How long had it been? His progress was too big.
"Houtian, what do you plan to do in the future?" Ning Cheng didn't stand on ceremony and asked directly.
Cheng Houtian sighed. "The Elixir Association was my favorite place. I don't know how many years I've been in the Elixir Association. I can't even remember it clearly. I do what I like to do in the Elixir Association, researching some pill recipes. But now, I'm a little disappointed. I plan to leave the Elixir Association and go out to look for Primordial Chaos Dao Opportunities. "
Ning Cheng remained silent. He knew what Cheng Houtian meant. That was, Qiu Tian didn't stand on his side and was even a little biased.
In fact, Cheng Houtian wasn't wrong. Even Ning Cheng could see that something was wrong in the room. Qiu Tian couldn't possibly not know about Cai Daopeng's tricks. However, he didn't stop them. One reason was that he didn't want to get involved in the dispute between the two. The other reason was that Cheng Houtian was almost hopeless, while Cai Daopeng was the mainstay of the Elixir Association.
"The Association Master focuses on the Alchemy Dao and rarely asks about other things. I'm also a person who focuses on the Alchemy Dao. I really don't want to waste my life in this kind of intrigue. "Seeing Ning Cheng remain silent, Cheng Houtian explained.
Ning Cheng suddenly thought of the Five Realms Pill Competition. "Then can you participate in the Five Realms Pill Competition with us?"
Cheng Houtian shook his head and said, "That's absolutely impossible. The Five Realms Pill Competition is already extremely difficult to take. The Guild Master has to bear a certain amount of responsibility for bringing you along. If I were to be included, it would definitely not be allowed. "
Ning Cheng once again turned silent, he knew that he could not help even a little bit in this matter. Even if he didn't go to the Five Realms Pill Competition, Cheng Houtian wouldn't be able to go to the Great Change Realm.
"Brother Hou Tian, do you know who plotted against Ning Cheng?" Ba Meng broke the silence and asked.
Cheng Houtian's face turned solemn, "I suspect that it has something to do with the Star Stepping Tower Master. When the Star Stepping Tower Master first arrived in Heaven Essence Sacred City, she looked very powerful. I even saw her fight. The woman in my room has a cultivation method similar to that of the Star Stepping Tower Master. "
Ning Cheng immediately thought of the black-robed woman with the veil over her face from the Star Stepping Tower. This woman most likely came from Earth. If she really came from Earth, it would be like stabbing a gun in the back when two people from the same hometown met.
"In any case, you have to be careful of Star Stepping Tower Master. Not only was this woman's cultivation extremely high, but she was also extremely scheming. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to control the First Pavilion in Heaven Essence Sacred City. "Cheng Houtian saw Ning Cheng pondering over it and reminded him again.
"I understand." Ning Cheng nodded. He had never underestimated this Star Stepping Tower Master.
At this moment, the restriction at the door moved again. Ning Cheng saw Cen Ruxuan from the Sunken Fish Palace at the door and said, "She came to ask me for alchemy. Xin Xiu, take her to the pill room next door."
Helping the Sunken Fish Palace and the Silver Dragon Clan with alchemy was very important. It was related to whether Ning Cheng could advance to the Dao Essence Pill Saint Realm. A Dao Essence Pill Saint not only needed a thorough understanding of the Dao of Alchemy but also a deep understanding of the Dao Laws of Heaven and Earth. In other words, if one didn't even understand what Dao Essence was, it would be a joke to refine Dao Essence Pills.
Ning Cheng was a Dao Sculpting Holy Emperor. The reason why he could refine the Six Yin Soul Soul Pill, apart from his understanding of the Dao of Returning to One during the Alchemy Conference, was because of the Bestowing Lawless Fruit.
Without the Bestowing Lawless Fruit, Ning Cheng felt sure that even if his understanding of the Dao of Returning to One reached a higher level, he wouldn't be able to refine Dao Essence Pills.
Now that Cen Ruxuan came, Ning Cheng wanted to see what kind of pill she would refine. If it was a rare Dao Essence Pill that was difficult to refine, he would still refuse. It wasn't that he didn't keep his promise, but that he couldn't refine it.
Only by refining a large number of Dao Essence Pills would he be able to accept this order.
… …
Cen Ruxuan felt very happy. Ning Cheng wanted to meet her alone in the pill room. Apparently, he wanted to help her refine pills.
"I wonder if Association Master Cheng is feeling better." Although Cen Ruxuan wanted to get straight to the point, she had to ask Ning Cheng about Cheng Houtian first.
She naturally knew that Ning Cheng had taken away Cheng Houtian from the Pill Association.
Ning Cheng smiled, "Association Master Cheng is still recuperating, but I believe he will recover. I don't know what kind of pill Senior Apprentice Sister Ru Xuan wants me to refine this time. The Sunken Fish Palace has helped me a lot. Senior Apprentice Sister Ru Xuan, feel free to ask. "
That's what I wanted you to say. Cen Ruxuan said with a smile, "I want to refine some Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills and some Heavenly Essence Pills."
Ning Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. These two kinds of pills were Dao Essence Pills, not the kind that were very difficult to refine. However, the main Dao fruit of the Heavenly Essence Pill was really hard to find. Although the Heavenly Essence Pill wasn't the most difficult to refine, it was one of the most valuable Dao Essence Pills.
The Heavenly Essence Pill was a Dao pill that could allow Dao Transformation Divine Emperors to comprehend Dao Essence Dao runes. It was so precious that it could make any first-step Dao Validation Divine Emperor go crazy. Even if a Heavenly Essence Pill could only give Dao Transformation Divine Emperors a slight chance to comprehend Dao Essence Divine Emperors, this slight chance was enough to make people go crazy.
The Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pill was simpler. It could only enhance one's comprehension of ice-attribute divine abilities. Although the Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pill was a Dao Essence Dao pill, Dao Transformation Divine Emperors could also use it. This kind of elixir was the best for Ning Cheng to practice with.
"I wonder how many cauldrons of elixirs Senior Sister Ruxuan has?" Ning Cheng asked.
Cen Ruxuan said in a solemn tone, "Over the countless years, the Sunken Fish Palace has only found five cauldrons of Heavenly Essence Pills and more than a dozen cauldrons of Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills. As for the Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills, it doesn't matter if Pill Sage Ning fails a little. "
Ning Cheng understood what Cen Ruxuan meant. Even the Sunken Fish Palace only had five cauldrons of Heavenly Essence Pills. Failure was not allowed, but Cen Ruxuan didn't say it out loud. As for the Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills, it didn't matter if Pill Sage Ning failed a few cauldrons.
The Sunken Fish Palace was one of the top ten sects. Such a big sect only had five cauldrons of Heavenly Essence Pills after so many years. This showed how precious the Heavenly Essence Pill's Dao Fruit was.
Ning Cheng said calmly, "It's impossible not to fail. I can't guarantee that I won't fail. Of course, I won't blame the Sunken Fish Palace for these failures. "
Cen Ruxuan sighed. How could she not understand what Ning Cheng meant? That is, if the Sunken Fish Palace escorted me to the Heaven Essence Sacred City, I would help you refine elixirs. However, I would still have to pay for the elixirs. In case I fail, it would be the payment.
It wasn't that Cen Ruxuan didn't think that Ning Cheng wouldn't ask for payment, but it was just a thought. Even she didn't believe that a Primordial Dao Alchemy Saint wouldn't ask for payment.
"I can make the decision to give more Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills to Pill Sage Ning, but there are only five cauldrons of Heavenly Essence Pills …" Cen Ruxuan said with some lack of confidence.
Ning Cheng said calmly, "Ordinary alchemy masters get paid 50% for helping others refine elixirs. Pill Sage gets paid 60% for helping others refine elixirs. I'm very grateful to Senior Sister Ru Xuan of the Sunken Fish Palace for help, so I only want 40%. It's the same for any elixir. "
It was absolutely impossible to help the Sunken Fish Palace refine elixirs for free. Even if the Sunken Fish Palace helped him a lot, Ning Cheng wouldn't dare agree. He was still counting on the materials from the Sunken Fish Palace to practice. How could it be free? If it was free, who would pay for the broken elixirs?
Cen Ruxuan knew that Ning Cheng's offer was definitely a fair price. An ordinary Alchemy Saint wanted 60% elixirs, and that was for an Alchemy Saint below the Primordial Dao Realm. Ning Cheng was a Primordial Dao Alchemy Saint. According to this price, it wouldn't be too much for Ning Cheng to ask for 70% elixirs. In fact, Ning Cheng only asked for 40% elixirs. If this wasn't a good price, then what was?
Cen Ruxuan sighed at the wealth of Pill Sage Ning while taking out a ring and handing it to Ning Cheng. "According to Pill Sage Ning, there are 20 cauldrons of elixirs inside. Five cauldrons of Heavenly Essence Pills and 15 cauldrons of Supreme Palace Heavenly Ice Pills."
Ning Cheng took the ring and said, "Okay, then Senior Sister Ru Xuan, please come back in a month to collect the elixirs."
… …
After sending Cen Ruxuan away, Ning Cheng didn't immediately go into seclusion to refine elixirs. Instead, he waited for Gong Ximao.
Gong Ximao of the Silver Dragon Clan didn't make Ning Cheng wait for long. Almost an hour after Cen Ruxuan left, he arrived at the Sword Three Mountain's cave.
"I wonder what elixir Brother Gong wants to refine?" Ning Cheng couldn't wait for Gong Ximao to refine a bunch of Heavenly Essence Pills. That would be the most beneficial thing for him.
Gong Ximao didn't even bargain. He directly took out a ring and handed it to Ning Cheng. "Pill Sage Ning, because the sect master is in seclusion, I can't get the top-notch materials. I'm only refining some Nine Lives Fire Dragon Pills this time."
Gong Ximao only wanted to refine elixirs for himself, so Ning Cheng didn't care about it. What puzzled him was that Gong Ximao wanted to refine Nine Lives Fire Dragon Pills. The Nine Lives Fire Dragon Pill was indeed a Primordial Dao Pill, but it was a healing elixir. Only fire-attributed Primordial Dao Emperors would use Nine Lives Fire Dragon Pills to repair their foundations.
Seeing Ning Cheng's puzzled gaze, Gong Ximao said helplessly, "My main spirit root is fire-attributed, but something went wrong with my cultivation. If I don't repair my foundation, my life would end here. Being able to meet Pill Saint Ning is my greatest fortune. "
Facing Ning Cheng, he didn't have anything to hide. Ning Cheng was a Primordial Dao Pill Sage. If he asked Ning Cheng to refine Nine Lives Fire Dragon Pills and Ning Cheng didn't know about the problem with his foundation, then Ning Cheng, a Primordial Dao Pill Sage, would definitely have a problem.
Ning Cheng put away the ring and nodded. "Okay, Brother Gong can come to me in a month to collect the elixirs. I'll also take 40% of the elixirs."
