Without spending too much time examining it, he directly put it away as a show of trust to the other party.

According to the auction price, Luo Chen got a pair for a thousand spirit stones, which is quite a bargain in any case.

Since he was getting a bargain, he would certainly have to return the favor.

“These are the Blood Ignition Pills that my friend refined in a month.”

“Twenty in total.”

Twenty equates to two thousand spirit stones according to their previous agreement.

After deducting the thousand for the Thousand Origami Cranes, Tian Xingzi still owed Luo Chen a one thousand spirit stones.

After the transaction, Tian Xingzi regretfully said, “Can only twenty be refined in a month?”

Luo Chen responded with a bitter smile, “I don’t know much about the path of pill refinement, but my friend said it’s extremely complicated to refine the Blood Ignition Pill and he has a hard time making any more.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s a pity.”

Is the refinement of Blood Ignition Pill complex?

Actually, it’s not that complicated.

Especially now that his proficiency had advanced and his success rate had risen to twenty percent.

Luo Chen’s Divine Soul Endowment had grown substantially, allowing him to squeeze out a bit more time for pill refinement every day.

He could definitely refine more Blood Ignition Pills.

But, time is always limited!

In addition to the Blood Ignition Pill, he couldn’t refine too few Jade Marrow Pills in a month.

Besides the Jade Marrow Pill, he had recently spent a lot of time working on the Tongyou Pill.

After all these detours, he had only been able to refine twenty-eight Blood Ignition Pills in a month.

Of these, he kept eight just in case.

Being able to sell twenty to Tian Xingzi was already excessively kind.

Because of this, when he left today, Gu Caiyi nagged him saying that there were too few Jade Marrow Pills.

Seeing Tian Xingzi’s regretful look, an idea suddenly came to Luo Chen.

“Actually, there is a way to refine more Blood Ignition Pills!”

“Oh?”

Tian Xingzi’s interest was piqued, “Tell me about it!”

He seemed particularly eager about the quantity of Blood Ignition Pills!

Luo Chen had accurately gauged his psychology.

Then, pretending to recall, he said: “Once while chatting with my friend, I heard him talking to himself, saying that Blood Ignition Pills are better suited for water oriented pill refinement techniques.”

“But right now he does not have a suitable water-oriented pill refinement technique, the success rate with the fire oriented technique is really low.”

“If he had a suitable water-oriented pill refinement technique, he might be able to significantly increase the success rate!”

After hearing these words, Tian Xingzi was thoughtful.

“Water method pill refinement technique?”

He recalled the list Luo Chen had given him.

There were indeed a lot of materials on it that were suitable for water method pill refinement.

In this case, this friend of Murong Yuan who is a pill refiner, should not have come from a great pill refining sect.

Because the pill refiners trained by great sects, regardless of their skill, would master at least some of the basic pill refinement techniques.

The most common pill refinement techniques in the Immortal Cultivation World are water and fire method.

Things like Gold-Quality Jade Liquid, Tongming Liquid, Deficiency Repairing Meridian Fluid, all are products of water method pill refinement technique. A rogue pill refiner?

Tian Xingzi thought for a moment, and took out a jade slip from his storage bag.

In an instant, Luo Chen’s gaze fell upon it.

“What is this?”

“A water method pill refinement technique, applicable for most of first to third order elixirs.”

Luo Chen exclaimed, “So powerful!”

No wonder he was so surprised.

Generally, pill refinement techniques are range-limited.

Just like the fire method pill refinement technique he currently mastered, which is just the most common form found on the market for first order pills. The elixirs that can be refined are typically first order too.

If he wants to refine second-order elixirs, he must learn the second-order fire technique from the “Qjngyuan Pill Explanation”.

Moreover, the few pill techniques he learned from Qing Yuanzi, such as the Breaking Jade Hand, was limited to mineral materials, while Simplicity Hand was limited to plant materials.

All of these set specific range limits.

But the water method pill refinement technique that Tian Xingzi took out is applicable to the first to third order.

Even if there is a premise of “most”, it is still very precious.

Faced with Luo Chen’s surprise, Tian Xingzi was not surprised.

He looked seriously at Luo Chen, “I can sell you this technique. But your friend must make an Oath of Dao, that they will not share this technique with anyone through any means, either intentionally or unintentionally!”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, such a strict oath?

Whether it is intentional or unintentional, he cannot pass the techniques on to others!

If the technique accidentally leaks out from his hands, it still counts as him breaking the oath.

Luo Chen was well aware of the consequences of violating the Oath of Dao.

If his cultivation level was low, it might not have been a problem.

But if he advanced to the Golden Core or Nascent Soul stage, there was a high chance that he would be backlashed by the oath.

Especially at the legendary Divine Transformation stage, which was inevitably accompanied by the Heart Demon Tribulation.

If there was a backlash from the Oath of Dao, one would certainly perish during the Heart Demon Tribulation.

In other words, the Oath of Dao was not strongly binding to lower order cultivators.

But for anyone aspiring to achieve longevity, it would be a strong constraint.

Naturally, Luo Chen was the latter.

Otherwise, he would not have given that Foundation Establishment Pill to Qin Liangchen back then.

The key was that among the Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills he refined for Mi Shuhua, none were used by him.

And that Foundation Establishment Pill, in essence, belonged to Qin Liangchen.

After weighing the pros and cons, Luo Chen finally followed his heart and made the final choice.

It was all about being clear-sighted!

Facing this request, Luo Chen immediately agreed solemnly.

Tian Xingzi was not afraid that he would cheat either.

He set up a small Spirit Consciousness prohibition on the jade slip right away.

To break this prohibition, the corresponding Oath of Dao had to be issued.

“So, what’s the price?”

Holding the jade slip, Luo Chen asked with a smile.

Then his smile froze.

Swallowing, Luo Chen looked at the finger Tian Xingzi was pointing up.

“Eight thousand?!”

“Why don’t you go…”

In the end, Luo Chen gritted his teeth and paid the Spirit Stones.

This Water Method Pill Refinement Technique was worth the price!

In a sense, the Secret Techniques among the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation were all not inferior to the mainstream cultivation techniques.

The Pill Refinement Technique applicable to the first to third order was even not weaker than the technique that could be cultivated to the Golden Core Realm.

Eight thousand was relatively cheap!

“Well, anyway, I’m buying it for my friend. He needs to return these Spirit Stones to me later.”

As Luo Chen spoke, he took out eight thousand Spirit Stones.

One thousand of them were just earned from selling the Blood Ignition Pill, and they were not even warmed yet.

After Tian Xingzi received the Spirit Stones, his eyes were deep.

“I hope to see fifty Blood Ignition Pills next month.”

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment. Was this a requirement from Tian Xingzi?

He awkwardly smiled, “I can’t guarantee this. I can only hope that my friend will have some gains after studying this technique.”

Tian Xingzi sighed.

“Time waits for no man!”

After he finished speaking, he lifted the sound isolation cover.

This meant that today’s trade was over.

No, it was not over yet.

Luo Chen left the black market hall in advance and came outside.

Wang Yanchang was waiting outside, holding the storage bag Luo Chen had given him in advance.

“Friend, this month’s medicinal ingredients are all in the bag.”

Luo Chen took the storage bag and the list.

After a glance, seeing Jade Yao Column, Earth Fire Evil Qi, Snow Fox Demon Blood, and Explosive Monkey Demon Blood on the list, he nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he took out one thousand five hundred Spirit Stones.

With these materials, the Tongyou Pills and Allure Pills for the next month wouldn’t lack raw materials.

After paying the Spirit Stones, Luo Chen was a little stretched.

He originally came to sell Blood Ignition Pills today, but he ended up contributing eight thousand five hundred Spirit Stones to the Zhenlong Black Market.

Even with his wealthy fortune, he couldn’t withstand such a blow!

All together, he only had fifteen thousand left on him.

However, it was a relief that if he could sell all the Jade Marrow Pills he refined this month, he could recover several thousand.

And today’s expenditure was not pure loss either.

Aside from replenishing the materials, most importantly, he got a Water Method Pill Refinement Technique.

From now on, whether it was refining Emperor Liquor or other pills that require the Water Method Pill Refinement Technique, he wouldn’t have to worry.

Wang Yanchang personally sent him to the entrance.

Just as he was about to take his leave, Luo Chen remembered the sigh.

“Time waits for no man!”

He was instantly struck, and blurted out to Wang Yanchang.

“Friend Wang, wait a moment!”
