Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 317 188, Green Lotus Palace Express_2

Under normal circumstances, when safeguarding a treasured medicine, unless this medicine has developed consciousness and embarked on a path of cultivation, or possesses strong offensive abilities, it would not warrant the use of the Fish Pattern Ban.

As for the Qingling Mountain Jade Box, like the Fish Pattern Ban, it is not used for ordinary treasured medicines.

And this Red Lotus Flower does not fall under the category of special treasured medicines.

Indeed, most of the time, such treasured medicines are quite useless, only the Red Lotus family, because of their bloodline relationships and special cultivation techniques, just happens to need this kind of treasured medicine.

"You've seen my nephew, his cultivation isn't enough to kill a single Immortal, let alone get close. And the person my nephew brought with him, if I'm not mistaken, should be one of the Mountain Patrol Envoys!" the elder from the Red Lotus Carps continued, emphasizing the last words particularly when he mentioned the Mountain Patrol Envoy.

Just as expected, upon hearing 'Mountain Patrol Envoy', the faces of several people stiffened in an instant.

Because unless the other party relinquishes this special position, under no circumstances would their backing forces dare to make a move against the opponent.

The existence of the Mountain Patrol Envoy is precisely to allow the direct descendants of the major forces in the Spirit Realm to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune. Therefore, targeting a Mountain Patrol Envoy is not just antagonizing one family's force, but provoking all of the forces in the Spirit Realm.

The dangers of Mang Mountain are known to all, and the fatality rate of the Mountain Patrol Envoys is horrifyingly high. Out of ten who go to Mang Mountain to serve as envoys, often half could be dead or injured before even half a sixty-year cycle passes.

But the reason why Mountain Patrol Envoys keep attracting people, willing to go fearlessly, is precisely because of the mutual maintenance of this status by the major forces.

Thus, as soon as his family uncle spoke in this manner, Red Lotus Carp immediately caught on, saying, "He serves as a Mountain Patrol Envoy at Ghost Ridge, and by now he should have returned, so if you gentlemen wish to find Tan Dao, you'll have to make a trip to Ghost Ridge."

"Ghost Ridge?"

Upon hearing this place, their expressions instantly stiffened even more. This place's danger is definitely among the top ten in Mang Mountain.

The Yin Gods of the second level of the Ghost Path are more than one, and none are in their low period.

Such a force, not just Cultivators of the third level dare not rashly intrude, even True Immortals must carefully weigh their chances. Because as long as they are not in a low period, it means they could potentially rise to their peak state at any moment.

And ghosts can also become immortals!

Therefore, the Yin Gods of the second level of the Ghost Path, when they enter their peak state, are not third level Earth Ghost Immortals, but Ghost Path True Immortals.

Although it is said, after such a rise happens once, most of these second-level Ghost Path Yin Gods will be completely annihilated, but the intruding True Immortals will certainly not fare well either.

Therefore, if a force has many Cultivators at the second level of merging paths, and none are in their low period, their external power can reach a level that could make a True Immortal show considerable respect.

After all, showing a little respect won't kill them.

Those few people had already left, knowing that the opponent was serving as a Mountain Patrol Envoy in Ghost Ridge, they knew there was no need to make a trip to Mang Mountain.

Having the Artifact Pill Furnace, Tan Shuchang finally managed not to explode the furnace this time.

Of the three Pill Furnaces, two were difficult to refine; their stubbornness and defiance were comparable to the Yin Yang Lotus Treasure Bottle and the Vajra Mingwang Bracelet, which Tan Shuchang suppressed in the Blood Pool and extremely did not recognize him.

However, Tan Shuchang was already familiar with this and didn't bother making useless efforts; he decided to suppress them in the Blood Pool for five hundred years first.

If two Pill Furnaces were difficult to refine, naturally, there was one that was easier to refine.

This Pill Furnace was pitch black, it was unclear if it was originally like this or if too much alchemy had caused it, but when Tan Shuchang nurtured spirituality within it, this Pill Furnace even emitted a large amount of black smoke.

Then, Tan Shuchang used it as his Alchemy Path Puppet.

The first attempt was still unsuccessful.

Because the amplification effect of the Pill Treasure Fan wasn't 100%, but rather a 70% chance.

However, the second time was successful. The 70% chance worked, and instantly the black Pill Furnace underwent a transformation, its original rule power was replaced by the spirituality nurtured by Tan Shuchang.

Once the Pill Furnace completed its transformation, it began refining pills on its own.

However, because the Pill Furnace's alchemy didn't have the amplification of the Pill Treasure Fan, the failure rate was very high. But, ultimately, with the spirituality nurtured by Tan Shuchang involved, despite the failures, a 30% success rate in alchemy was still achievable.

And that was the alchemy success rate most alchemists claimed publicly.

After all, no matter the industry, there are always kickbacks.

This wasn't just something Tan Shuchang made up; it was written by Yi Qingqing in her alchemy experience compilation and even specifically highlighted in bold and enlarged text.

Clearly, it was of utmost importance.

Regardless of the actual success rate in alchemy, the publicly stated rate could only be 30%.

If it was very difficult to refine, then it could even be lower.

However, feeling the sparse bits of Dao and scant enlightenment returned by the Pill Furnace, Tan Shuchang slightly furrowed his brows.

Because it was too little, it might require a hundred years to barely allow him to advance once.

And if that was the case, wouldn't it be better for him to enter the "Twenty-Four Seasons" state directly? Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

"No, I can change my approach. There's no need to be so rigid, insisting on refining the pills myself..." Tan Shuchang already had an idea in his mind, so he immediately returned to the Land of the Four Pillars.
