Hope for the Three Revolutions Rebirth Pill Recipe!
This was good news, so Jia Ren sent out his Insect External Incarnation and arranged a meeting place.
The location was seven hundred li away from the Water Curtain Cave Abode, and it took the Insect External Incarnation a little over two hours to reach the destination and use the Xuan Guang Water Mirror for observation.
He would confirm if there were any dangers before deciding whether to show himself.
While it's not right to wish harm on others, one must guard against it.
The meeting place was inconvenient, lacking a water source, which was necessary to use the Xuan Guang Water Mirror.
No water source?
That wasn't a problem.
A drop of Xuan Yuan Heavy Water shot towards the distance, transforming into a stream a hundred zhang away, creating a man-made creek and resolving any issues with setting up the Xuan Guang Water Mirror.
Xuan Yuan Heavy Water was a powerful secret technique, with astonishingly deadly force. Its only drawback was the difficulty of its cultivation and the excessively slow rate of improvement.
Thanks to the aid of the Proficiency Panel, Jia Ren had only managed to refine five drops of Six Xuan Yuan Heavy Water to date, but after breaking through his limits, the path forward would be unobstructed.
Given more time, he could reach the unprecedented Seven Xuan Yuan Heavy Water.
Six Xuan Yuan Heavy Water was the pinnacle offensive secret technique for those in the Foundation Establishment Stage, while Seven Xuan Yuan Heavy Water belonged to the level of Golden Core secret techniques.
It would become his trump card, aside from Third Rank Spiritual Beasts and talisman scrolls.
An hour later, Luo Yuzhu appeared. She stood atop a large rock, looking into the distance and searching for something.
Jia Ren carefully confirmed that there were no hidden dangers before he made his appearance.
"Daoist Luo, to see you safe and sound is truly fortunate," he said.
This made his warning worthwhile.
Heeding advice was a good thing.
"Thank you for Daoist Shi's warning, your lifesaving grace," Luo Yuzhu replied, her face showing surprise and delight upon seeing Jia Ren.
If she had not believed Jia Ren's words and fled in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
The demise of the Qingfu Fang Market under the hands of three Bizarre Alliance Golden Core cultivators would have left her no chance of survival.
Thinking back, she still felt a lingering fear.
A life-saving grace must be repaid.
"As a token of my gratitude, I am willing to offer you a Second Order pill recipe, and the Three Revolutions Rebirth Pill Recipe is also available for trade," she said.
A Second Order pill recipe?
The Three Revolutions Rebirth Pill Recipe?
This unexpected joy was more than he could have asked for. His efforts in warning her had not been in vain, yielding an unexpected gain.
"As a repayment for the lifesaving favor, are you satisfied with this pill recipe?" she asked.
Luo Yuzhu took out a Jade Slip and handed it to Jia Ren.
Jia Ren took the Alchemy Recipe before him, carefully inspecting it.
As his consciousness immersed itself, he stood there, dumbstruck.
The Jiejindan Formula!
???
Upon seeing the contents in the Jade Slip, Jia Ren's first thought was to question the authenticity of the recipe.
The Golden Core Formation Pill was known for its miraculous effect in aiding the chance of forming a Golden Core, much like the Foundation Establishment Pill, making it invaluable for cultivators striving for Golden Core success.
Innumerable cultivators desired the Golden Core Formation Pill but failed to obtain it.
Having the Jiejindan Formula was not the same as having the Golden Core Formation Pill itself. This was the most crucial aspect. The value of the formula was not low, exceeding even that of the Golden Core Main Medicine.
Jia Ren scanned it quickly and could not help but heave a sigh.
Thousand-Year Tianshan Snow Lotus, Heavenly Earth Elixirs such as the Five-Hundred Year Jade Spirit Flower...
It was no wonder that the Golden Core Formation Pill was so rare. Each material required for its concoction was a seldom-seen oddity, difficult to find.
Jia Ren even doubted whether the Barren Extreme Land would yield the necessary spiritual medicines.
Having the recipe without corresponding spiritual medicines made it impossible to concoct the Golden Core Formation Pill.
The pill recipe was given too early. His cultivation was still at the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage, and Golden Core formation was too far off. He couldn't predict how long it would take to meet the requirements.
Getting the Jiejindan Formula in advance was also a good thing.
Jia Ren had more time to collect spiritual medicines, aiming to concoct the Golden Core Formation Pill before his breakthrough to ensure a smooth progression.
"There aren't many useful Second Order pill recipes for those in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. The most valuable is the Jiejindan Formula. I have nothing else to offer in return, so I give you this in gratitude for saving my life," she explained.
Her pill recipe came from the Yuding Sect, from her own sect.
Initially, she had been concerned about preserving the sect's heritage.
But after discussing with her teacher, she changed her mind.
The fall of her sect, at the hands of the Heart-devouring Illusion Bizarre and the Bizarre Alliance Cultivators, left few survivors.
With the Yuding Sect gone, and both master and disciple lacking the desire to rebuild the Yuding Sect, preserving the heritage was not so critical.
It was acceptable to give away a Second Order pill recipe to repay a life-saving grace.
Especially since she relied on Jia Ren to help concoct the Third Turn Resurrection Pill to save her teacher.
"This item is indeed useful to me, I won't be polite," he said.
"This is the Three Revolutions Rebirth Pill Recipe."
Luo Yuzhu took out the Three Revolutions Rebirth Pill Recipe, handing it to Jia Ren.
In a short time, two high-ranking pill recipes were in his possession, their value extraordinary.
One must guard against others, as cultivators do not reveal everything at once. There must always be some reservation.
Offering the Jiejindan Formula as thanks would normally only come after the successful concoction of the Third Turn Resurrection Pill.
Luo Yuzhu, true to her affluent background, was naive and sincere.
Without seeking any benefit first, she had brought out two valuable Second Order pill recipes.
Such an individual was increasingly rare in the Cultivation World...
Luckily, the person she met was me. If she had encountered a cultivator with malevolent intentions, she truly would have been exploited to death.
"Within seven days, I will deliver the Third Turn Resurrection Pill to you."
"Consider a few dozen Middle-Order Talisman Scrolls my return," he said.
The Jiejindan Formula was priceless. Although it repaid a life-saving favor, it still exceeded expectations.
Giving her several dozen Talisman Scrolls would increase her chances of survival and prevent an unexpected death.
I also hoped to acquire more pill recipes from her.
Not to mention others, I was particularly interested in pill recipes that could enhance cultivation from Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage to Late Stage.
The former could shorten the time required to increase cultivation in the Mid-Stage, while the latter was essential and could not be missed.
Having agreed to meet seven days later, he returned with two Second-order Pill Recipes.
The Spiritual Medicine Repository had a vast quantity and variety of medicinal herbs, with no shortage of corresponding ones. Coupled with Jia Ren's superb alchemy skills, refining the Third Turn Resurrection Pill was not difficult, and he succeeded on the first try.
Luo Yuzhu inspected the nine Third Turn Resurrection Pills, her eyes showing continuous surprise, as the quality of the elixirs far exceeded expectations.
"Truly worthy of being an Alchemy Grandmaster, thank you Daoist Shi for your help."
"If you have such requests in the future, feel free to contact me."
After giving Luo Yuzhu a new Communication Bead, the two finally parted ways.
「Ten months later, the Insect External Incarnation walked out of the Cave Abode.」
A Mysterious Turtle, seven zhang in size, stood on the Spirit Land of its old nest, triggering the restrictions.
This was the communication method Jia Ren had agreed upon with the Mysterious Turtle.
It's time to send the Beast Spirit Pills.
The provisions had been prepared long ago, totaling over a thousand Beast Spirit Pills.
He also included several Great Grandmaster Level Beast Spirit Pills.
You can't reveal all your good stuff at once. If you want to hook them, it's all about progressing gradually.
Don't forget to bring it back.
To prevent any accidents during the transportation, Jia Ren had especially set up protections inside the Storage Bag.
The Mysterious Turtle quickly took the Storage Bag and left, gradually disappearing into the distance.
Jia Ren was completely confident in the Great Grandmaster Level Beast Spirit Pills, and awaited the day the Thousand-Year-Old Black Turtle ate them, certain that it would offer its loyalty.
The tracking restriction inside the Storage Bag hadn't gone far when it suddenly stopped.
What happened?
Who would dare rob a turtle?!
The Beast Spirit Pills were crucial to taming the Thousand-Year-Old Black Turtle. I couldn't be careless.
The Fathead Fish Demon occasionally left the Mountain and River Pearl to get some air, mostly moving around nearby, so it was confirmed there were no major demons in the vicinity. The transportation by the Second Order late-stage Mysterious Turtle should have been safe.
I must be careful with this, he thought, decisively sending his Insect External Incarnation to investigate.
Meanwhile, his true body used the Xuan Guang Water Mirror to gather information.
The mirror reflected every tiny detail.
Jia Ren didn't exert much effort to locate the Storage Bag, and the image froze.
He had no idea until he saw it, and nearly choked with anger.
The Mysterious Turtle responsible for delivery had bitten through the Storage Bag, devouring every last Great Grandmaster Level Beast Spirit Pill and a good number of the Grandmaster Level Beast Spirit Pills as well, before slipping into a deep sleep.
???
You're disregarding turtle decency?!
Even turtles indulge in embezzling?!
Playing nice to my face and cheating behind my back.
Jia Ren had not expected a day would come when he would be tricked by a turtle, and his expression darkened.
A moment of patience might lead to calm seas, but stepping back only made him grow angrier.
Unworthy of turtle decency! Unworthy of martial decency!
Unable to contain his anger, Jia Ren decisively engraved the characters for 'martial decency' onto its back.
I just have to wait for it to complete its ancestral reversion, and then I'll settle the score.
The ancestral reversion lasted a day. Once the Wude Turtle roused, its old shell shed, revealing a new one.
Its eyes shone with joy, and it would not stop making noise.
Upon noticing Jia Ren's displeased demeanor not far away, it instantly stiffened in place.
Without a moment's hesitation, it retracted its head and limbs into its shell, becoming unresponsive.
"Don't play dead!" The Insect External Incarnation stepped forward and kicked it twice, to no avail.
Since the old shell was gone, he took out his knife and began carving 'martial decency' on the newly-formed shell.
The commotion scared the Wude Turtle so much that it didn't dare poke its head out.
Do you really think I can't deal with you?
Jia Ren gave a cold laugh, took out a Beast Spirit Pill, and crushed its wax coating.
Instantly, the rich fragrance of the pill spread throughout the air.
The Wude Turtle stuck its head out, its dark eyes fixed on the pill, and a hint of placation in its expression.
I'll follow you...
"That's more like it!"
"I won't hold stealing the Spirit Pills against you."
Though this turtle lacked martial decency, it had lived for nearly a thousand years and was a decent fighter. After its ancestral reversion, it had reached the peak of the Second Order, nearing the strength of the Third Rank—not inferior to the Fathead Fish Demon before its advancement.
The Spirit Contract was finalized, truly making it a spirit pet.
With a guilt-ridden expression, the Wude Turtle wore a fawning look.
"Deliver these Beast Spirit Pills for me, and don't steal any this time. As my spirit pet, you won't be short of these treats."
"Figure out a way to convince your ancient ancestor to come over. I have even better Spirit Pills."
Jia Ren took out an Extraordinary Saint Level Beast Saint Pill, letting the Wude Turtle sniff it before tossing it over.
The Wude Turtle swallowed the pill as fast as lightning, its black eyes filled with joy.
"As long as you pull this off, you'll be fed this quality of elixirs for good!"
If you want the horse to run, you've got to feed it good fodder.
I thought I'd stolen the supreme bait, but there are even better elixirs! the Wude Turtle thought.
The eyes of the Wude Turtle shone, and it hastily nodded in agreement, taking the newly provided Storage Bag from Jia Ren and setting out.
It wasn't aware that the pills Jia Ren revealed would become the daily sustenance provided to all the Spirit Turtles...
The Wude Turtle departed energetically, moving at an astonishing speed.
Good!
Hopefully, this will yield a positive outcome.
Having finished everything, Jia Ren didn't dwell on the matter any longer. He went back to his Cave Abode to meditate and cultivate after improving the proficiency of a few common Spells.
With a steady supply of elixirs each day, his cultivation level advanced respectably.
But his progress remained limited by the quality of the Solidifying Yuan Pill. His advancement in cultivation had only progressed by one-ninth, and it would take seven or eight more years to meet the requirements.
Jia Ren had been cultivating for seven days when noise from outside reached him.
The Thousand-Year-Old Black Turtle, leading a team of dozens of turtles, returned to their ancestral land.
