After the failure, Lan Xiaobu calmed down and started to learn how to purify spirit herbs.
Lan Xiaobu's Spiritual Force was far superior to his peers. Besides, his Zhen Yuan was very strong and had the Spiritual Force cultivation technique, the Forging Spiritual Art. Purifying spirit herbs was easy. The first cauldron of level-one spirit herbs was almost 90 percent pure.
According to the requirements of the Ten Continents Dao Pill Records, one could start refining elixirs as long as the purity was 70 percent pure.
However, since Lan Xiaobu had chosen to start from scratch, he had to purify it to a higher level. He had refined 54 cauldrons of Quintessential Storage Elixirs. Although he had not succeeded in any of them, he had gained some experience. He knew that the higher the purity of spirit herbs, the easier it would be to control the elixir.
The result of the Spiritual Force purification had been sent to the Seven Tone Model, which soon gave him a perfect plan.
The second time he purified level-one spirit herbs, the purity reached 95 percent. The third time, the fourth time …
When Lan Xiaobu had purified level-one spirit herbs to infinitely close to 100 percent, he started to purify level-two spirit herbs, then level-three spirit herbs …
Some things were easy to master. Purifying spirit herbs was the same. As long as one mastered the method of purification and had a strong enough Spiritual Sense and Zhen Yuan, when one could purify a Level 3 spiritual herb to 99%, purifying a Level 4 spiritual herb would only require a few more practice sessions.
…
While Lan Xiaobu was practicing alchemy in the sect, the Gui Hai Family held a family meeting because of what had happened in White Feather Immortal City.
The Gui Hai Family was not ranked high in the Yuan Continent, but it was definitely not bad among the three-star cultivation families in the northern part of the Yuan Continent.
The Gui Hai Ridge was the Gui Hai Family's base, and it was named after the Gui Hai Family.
At the Gui Hai Family meeting, the pale-faced Gui Haizhao, who had yet to recover from his serious injuries, was narrating what had happened in White Feather Immortal City that day.
Gui Hai Shen Xie, the current Family Master of the Gui Hai Family, was sitting at the head of the table. He was a late-stage Core Formation expert.
When he heard Gui Haizhao say that Lan Xiaobu had severely injured Gui Haizhao, destroyed the Crescent Moon Elixir Dispensary and killed Manager Yu Ke in front of everyone, Gui Haizhao was so furious that he was about to set the entire hall ablaze.
However, he suppressed the anger in his heart and calmed himself down. In the end, he even acted as if nothing had happened. Then, he turned his gaze to the other elders of the family and slowly said, "Everyone, tell me your thoughts. Why does a mere Two-Star Immortal Cultivation Sect dare to be so arrogant in front of my Guihai Family? From Zhao 'er's words, if it wasn't for Bai Yu Immortal City's City Lord, that Lan Xiaobu would have already killed Zhao' er. From the moment he killed my Crescent Moon Pill House's shopkeeper, Yu Ke, I know that he really dares to do so. "
An elder of the Gui Hai Family was not so patient. He snorted and said, "How dare a fake Two-Star Sect, which is not even as good as a One-star Sect, stand above our Gui Hai Family? What I mean is, all the cultivators above the Yundan Realm of the Gui Hai Family should be mobilized and uproot this sect. Then, we'll eliminate all of them. "
The one who spoke was an elder of the Gui Hai Family, Gui Hai Bing. He was at the peak of the Jindan Realm and was only one step away from the Elixir Realm. He was also waiting for the opening of Kunxu to look for opportunities.
Many people in the room rubbed their hands. This was not the first time they had done something like exterminating a sect. For them, the Thousand Cloud Immortals School could be easily destroyed by a few Jindan Overlords of the Gui Hai Family.
The Family Master, Gui Hai Shenxie, looked at a slightly fat man and asked, "Zhenyi, what do you think?"
This man was obviously more polite than the others. He stood up and bowed to the Family Master before saying, "Elder Bing is right. The Thousand Cloud Immortals School is indeed not even as good as a One-star Sect in the eyes of the Gui Hai Family. It's too easy for the Gui Hai Family to destroy it. However, this is the Thousand Cloud Immortals School of the past. The reason why the Thousand Cloud Immortals School dares to attack the Gui Hai Family is that they have a new Sect Master, Lan Xiaobu.
We don't know where Lan Xiaobu came from. It's as if he appeared out of nowhere. After I got the news, I investigated him. His only activity seemed to be around the Mou Bei Market. Of course, I didn't investigate carefully because I was in a hurry. Gui Haizhao is one of the best in the Gui Hai Family. He's not inferior to Elder Bing … "
No one said anything. They all knew that Gui Hai Zhen was giving face to Gui Haizhao. If they really fought, Gui Haibing was probably not Gui Haizhao's match. In fact, the difference between them was not small.
Gui Hai Zhen was not only the brain of the Gui Hai Family, but he was also very popular. He spoke calmly and didn't offend anyone. The Family Master, Gui Hai Shen Xie, would ask for Gui Hai Zhen's opinion on many things. Gui Hai Zhen thought a lot. Like speaking and doing things, he prioritized stability first. Gui Hai Zhen had contributed a lot to the development of the Gui Hai Family today.
Gui Hai Zhen continued, "Lan Xiaobu could severely injure Gui Haizhao. Whether it was a sneak attack or not, his strength is beyond doubt. The Gui Hai Family can indeed destroy the Thousand Cloud Immortals School, but we'll definitely suffer some losses. "
Gui Haizhao snorted. "As a Three-Star Immortal Cultivation Family, how can we be afraid of losses?"
Everyone in the Gui Hai Family knew that Gui Haizhao was not as powerful as Gui Haizhao. However, in Gui Haizhao's eyes, the young Gui Haizhao was far inferior to him. Yet, Gui Hai Zhen said that Gui Haizhao was not inferior to him. Was he trying to lower his strength?
Gui Hai Zhen smiled faintly. "Of course, it's necessary to avoid unnecessary losses. The family needs long-term development. Besides, I heard another thing. Fairy Liu Li of the West Kunlun Party went to Mou Bei Market Square. Fairy Liu Li fought with Lan Xiaobu in Mou Bei Market Square and ended in a draw. Fairy Liu Li has a deadly technique called Blood Mist Needle. She should be kind-hearted and didn't use it. Even so, we shouldn't underestimate a person who can fight with Fairy Liu Li to a draw. "
Gui Haizhao didn't speak this time. He thought he was powerful but didn't think he could defeat Fairy Liu Li.
They were all Jin Dan, but the quality of Jin Dan differed. He had heard that Liu Li's Golden Core was a high-grade Golden Core, while he had barely reached the middle-grade Golden Core. He had not even touched the edge of high-grade Golden Core.
"This person even dares to offend Fairy Liu Li of the West Kunlun?" an elder of the Gui Hai Family said in surprise.
Now, everyone understood why this person wanted to teach the Crescent Moon Elixir Dispensary a lesson. How could a person who wasn't even afraid of Fairy Liu Li of the West Kunlun be afraid of the Gui Hai Family? Hehe, they thought too much.
Gui Haizhao, who had yet to recover from his serious injuries, also took a deep breath. He hadn't expected that Lan Xiaobu would dare to offend Liu Li. It seemed that killing a steward of the Crescent Moon Elixir Dispensary wasn't a big deal.
Gui Haizhao nodded and said, "Yes, Lan Xiaobu is ruthless. He's completely different from Shan Changxiu, the Sect Master of the Thousand Cloud Immortals School."
"So we're just going to let it go?" Gui Haizhao said with a frown.
Gui Haizhao smiled. "Let it go? The Gui Hai Family is a three-star cultivation family. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face if we just let it go? I'm thinking that Kunxu is about to open and there should be three people from the Gui Hai Family who can enter Kunxu. We want to get some things in Kunxu. First, we have to make sure that the First Elder of the Gui Hai Family, Gui Hai Yueqing, can enter the Soul Refinement State. Second, we have to make sure that at least one of us can successfully form a pill. "
Hearing this, everyone became excited. Some people's eyes were already shining. They were thinking of all ways to enter Kunxu.
Gui Haizhao continued, "When Kunxu closes and the Gui Hai Family finishes their advancement, we'll destroy the Thousand Cloud Immortals School openly and announce that we're competing for the position of a four-star cultivation family."
"Okay, let's do that." Family Master Gui Hai Shenxie was also very excited. He slammed the table and decided on this matter.
…
After finishing the purification of the spirit herbs, Lan Xiaobu made a full set of Qi Channeling Pills on his first try. Although there weren't any special-class or superior-class pills, this was his first try. As long as he practiced, he would have no problem making special-class pills.
It seemed that everything had to be done step by step. Lan Xiaobu realized that he was a little arrogant because of the Seven Tone Model. He didn't start with the lowest-class pills but chose to make a grade-four pill. He failed, but it wasn't a bad thing. If he had succeeded, it wouldn't have been good for his cultivation and state of mind in the future.
There were no shortcuts on the path of cultivation, whether it was cultivation, alchemy or other branches. Lan Xiaobu knew that he was in a hurry to make the True Storage Elixir before entering Kunxu, which was why he had chosen the wrong path. Fortunately, it wasn't too late. After failing fifty-four times, he came back to his senses.
He should have started from the lowest-class Qi Channeling Elixir and gradually made it to the True Storage Elixir.
Half a month later, when Lan Xiaobu could make a grade-two Meridian Opening Elixir with ease, the alchemist's light lit up.
Shan Chiyue asked him to come out of seclusion and get ready to go to the Mystic Stream in Kunxu.
Lan Xiaobu cleaned himself up and left the cave abode. When he came to the main hall of the sect, the old sect master Shan Changxiu and the three elders Cheng Yixiu, Situ Tong and Wen Xinran were all waiting for him. Lan Xiaobu was a little embarrassed. Although he was the sect master, everyone here was more senior than him.
Seeing everyone's expression, he knew that they were in a good mood.
Lan Xiaobu said with a smile. "Congratulations, Grand Elder. You have regained your power and become a Core Formation Overlord again."
After Shan Changxiu stepped down from his position as the sect master, he became the Grand Elder. The first time Lan Xiaobu saw Shan Changxiu, Shan Changxiu was still recovering from his injuries. This time, when he saw Shan Changxiu again, Shan Changxiu had regained his strength. Although Shan Changxiu looked a little old, he was still the most powerful person in the Thousand Cloud Immortals School.
