Longevity: My Talents Are a Bit Abundant-Chapter 405: The True Master Launches an Offensive

Chapter 405: Chapter 405: The True Master Launches an Offensive

After three months, True Master Cold Jade personally took to refining the Purifying Foundation Pill.

This time, under the guidance of Shen Xuan and Li Ruyi, True Master Cold Jade achieved satisfactory results in pill making.

Three pills were refined, all of which were up to standard.

This allowed Shen Xuan to breathe a sigh of relief.

He was really worried that True Master Cold Jade might encounter some mishap during pill refining, resulting in too few pills and losing face.

Fortunately, True Master Cold Jade’s spiritual power was deep, the spell precise, and with prior guidance from Li Ruyi and Shen Xuan, it reached the expected result.

The improved Purifying Foundation Pill has been successfully developed!

However, before its official debut, it still needs a suitable name.

The name Purifying Foundation Pill is certainly not viable.

Its efficacy is only about a quarter of the original Purifying Foundation Pill, resembling that of knock-offs.

It appears inferior and coarse.

"How about calling it Cold Jade Pill?"

Li Ruyi, Liu Bingyu, and Lv Zhengying were initially stunned when Shen Xuan mentioned this name.

Then they all shouted in approval.

"Cold Jade Pill, is this name good?"

True Master Cold Jade appeared somewhat doubtful.

"Good!"

Shen Xuan’s tone was firm.

"Cold Jade Pill, originating from Cold Jade Peak, personally developed by Master. The name is self-explanatory; upon hearing it, others will understand the origin of Cold Jade Pill!"

"This..."

True Master Cold Jade looked towards Li Ruyi.

"Fellow Daoist Li, do you also think so?"

Li Ruyi quickly laughed and said, "Master, Ruyi feels that Fellow Daoist Shen’s words are reasonable. Ruyi agrees."

"Master, Bingyu also feels that Cold Jade Pill sounds nice."

Liu Bingyu interjected.

"I also think that Cold Jade Pill is a good name."

Lv Zhengying likewise expressed his approval.

In reality, when Shen Xuan proposed the name "Cold Jade Pill," True Master Cold Jade indeed felt somewhat moved in his heart upon hearing it.

To name a spirit pill after one’s Dao name is an extremely rare honor.

With the spreading of Cold Jade Pill’s reputation, both True Master Cold Jade and Cold Jade Peak will surely become famous throughout Song Country for millennia.

However, in this spirit pill’s development, the technical guidance provided by Li Ruyi was indispensable.

True Master Cold Jade needed to seek Li Ruyi’s opinion.

As for Liu Bingyu and Lv Zhengying, they were merely tools.

In the five-person core group for spirit pill development, four people had expressed their approval.

True Master Cold Jade was still hesitant.

Shen Xuan solemnly stated, "Master, this pill being named Cold Jade Pill is proper and righteous, just right to deter insignificant people."

Seeing the deeply approving expressions of Li Ruyi, Liu Bingyu, and Lv Zhengying, True Master Cold Jade finally realized.

"Shen Xuan’s words are reasonable."

The newly developed Cold Jade Pill has a high cost-performance ratio and involves immense interests, inevitably attracting the covetous eyes of many unscrupulous figures.

Currently, only True Master Cold Jade, Shen Xuan, and Li Ruyi know the pill formula.

If there wasn’t True Master Cold Jade in front to shield for the two of them.

The consequences would be hard to predict.

After all, wealth stirs people’s hearts.

The greater the interests, the more dangerous it becomes for Shen Xuan and Li Ruyi.

...

Unknowingly, winter gradually arrived.

The world was draped in silver, with heavy snow flying.

Mist Peak, main hall for discussions.

One radiant escape light after another flew in.

The annual True Master Conference was about to begin.

Summarizing the work of this year, discussing plans for the next year.

Among them, the most critical item is resource supply.

Especially as the war between Dao and demon is nearing its end, Sect’s Core Formation Seeds are about to return to the sect, preparing for core formation.

Various high-tier resource allocation plans appear particularly crucial.

The incense burner emitted swirling spirit incense, pleasing the mind and senses.

Five inner, thirteen outer, eighteen seats arranged neatly.

When Mysterious Trace True Master came in, all the other seventeen seats were already filled.

"Hidden Aspect Senior Brother, fellow junior brothers and sisters, sorry, Mysterious Trace is a bit late."

"I just sent off True Master Xuan Ji from Profound Celestial Sect. Profound Celestial Sect has discovered a completely new secret realm in Gan Shui County."

A new secret realm!

Everyone’s eyes turned to Mysterious Trace True Master.

"Profound Celestial Sect’s preliminary survey indicates it’s Foundation Establishment Realm level, perhaps containing some core formation spiritual objects inside."

"As per convention, after some days, each sect will dispatch elite disciples to experience and explore opportunities."

Upon hearing it’s merely Foundation Establishment Realm level, many True Masters instantly lost interest.

"As usual, starting with Spirit Plant Hall, each hall and peak will briefly mention the situation this year and their plans for next year."

Chang Chun True Master began speaking, describing the situation regarding Cyan Cloud Sect’s spirit plants.

Subsequently, True Masters from each hall and peak spoke in sequence.

The circumstances were similar to those of previous years.

The achievements were slightly better.

After Cyan Cloud Sect introduced Giant Furnace Refining, the annual increase in Spirit Stone revenue reached tens of millions, somewhat easing the budgets of each hall and peak.

In the Dao and demon war, the extensive use of Thunder Spirit Pearls also enabled Cyan Cloud Sect’s Core Formation Seeds to reverse the decline, achieving remarkable results in various prefectures and counties along the border.

"It seems, everyone’s situation is quite good!"

After the seventeen True Masters briefly spoke, Mysterious Trace True Master smiled and said.

In fact, these circumstances had long been engraved on secret jade scrolls and sent to each True Master to review before the meeting.

"Sect Leader Senior Brother, is this batch of Golden Transformation Pills still only ten in number?"

True Master Purple Qi asked.

Immediately, all True Masters turned their gaze towards Mysterious Trace True Master.

The Golden Transformation Pill is Tier Three Tier-Breaking Spirit Pill.

Its function is akin to Foundation Establishment Pill.

Ordinary cultivators, when condensing the inner core, it’s indispensable.

True Master Purple Qi has a direct disciple listed among the sect’s Core Formation Seeds, ranked among the teens.

If there are only ten Golden Transformation Pills, it’s tough to compete for one.

Mysterious Trace True Master laughed, "Changsheng Junior Brother, you explain." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Changsheng True Master calmly said, "I have discussed with Hundred Herbs Sect in Lu Country."

"This time, Sect Leader Senior Brother reported to get approval from the Supreme Elder for the sect to procure six batches of Golden Transformation Pill ingredients."

All the True Masters were somewhat astonished.

In the past, there were usually four portions.

The atmosphere in the discussion hall was noticeably more relaxed.

"With six portions of materials, given Brother Changsheng’s mastery in Alchemy Dao, eighteen pills can be refined."

"Eighteen pills? Doesn’t that mean each peak will have one!"

"That’s good. I can finally answer to my old friends."

True Master Changsheng coughed lightly.

"Six portions of Golden Transformation Pill materials, I’ll do my best. How many pills can be refined depends on their fortune."

After speaking, True Master Changsheng glanced at True Master Cold Jade.

Lightly said a sentence.

"This year, the sect assigned a task to refine thirty Taiqing Pills. My disciple is dull, one of them was sent to the Yin Sha Cave and could only refine twenty-one qualified pieces."

Though his voice was not loud, the dissatisfaction in his tone was evident.

The Mysterious Trace True Master had to speak up.

"Brother Changsheng, your disciple Zhao Shun falsely accused Fellow Shen Xuan of Cold Jade Peak, the Law Enforcement Hall sentenced him to thirty years of confinement in the Yin Sha Cave for the crime of false accusation."

"Fellow Ling Xiao has spoken to me about this matter. According to sect regulations, law enforcement was impartial, and there’s nothing wrong with that."

True Master Ling Xiao nodded slightly.

"This was a case I personally ruled on."

The gaze of the other True Masters darted around True Master Changsheng, Mysterious Trace True Master, and True Master Ling Xiao.

True Master Ling Xiao, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, has always been fair and strict.

Involves the case of direct disciples, and it’s natural to report to Sect Leader Mysterious Trace True Master.

The causes and effects of the matter are clear, and there’s absolutely no chance of overturning the case.

It’s unknown why True Master Changsheng mentioned this matter.

True Master Changsheng said with a gloomy tone, "I’m busy with alchemy and negligent in discipline, Zhao Shun only has himself to blame."

"It’s just that since the sect assigned alchemy tasks, why can’t Fellow Tong Xuan even provide complete auxiliary spirit medicines?"

True Master Tong Xuan was slightly stunned.

True Master Changsheng was challenging him!

He’s done the most work and taken the most blame in the Cyan Cloud Sect.

Fortunately, Lv Zhengying has reported to him, so he’s prepared.

"Brother Changsheng, you’ve misunderstood. The Miscellaneous Affairs Hall fully cooperated with the auxiliary spirit medicines, delivered on time, and wouldn’t dare neglect any duty at all."

True Master Changsheng spoke to the Immortal City Lord of Qing Yun and True Master Guang Wei, "Brother Guang Wei, you know best about the spirit medicine matters in Qing Yun City."

True Master Guang Wei stood up and cupped his hands in salute to the other True Masters.

"Six months ago, several small and medium commerce associations and cultivation clans purchased large quantities of several Tier Two Middle Grade spirit medicines in Qing Yun City."

True Master Guang Wei singled out the United Commerce Association, Celestial Fortune Commerce Association, Ding Family, Shangguan Family, and Tie Family by name.

As for the spirit medicines, they were Spirit Jade Fruit, Moon Soul Flower, Wind Settling Grass, Cliff View Flower, Coagulated Frost Fruit, Wind Welcoming Flower, and so on.

All are over five hundred years old.

True Master Changsheng said softly, "Brother Guang Wei, could you please explain who these commerce associations and families have been contacting, and where these spirit medicines ultimately went."

True Master Guang Wei sighed.

His gaze turned to True Master Cold Jade.

"Sister Cold Jade?"

With these words spoken.

The True Masters’ gaze turned to True Master Cold Jade.

Many True Masters were puzzled.

True Master Cold Jade and True Master Gu Feng are among the eighteen True Masters who hold no official position.

In other words, these two female True Masters are merely idlers.

True Master Gu Feng is from the Yang Family, which is part of a sect family.

In recent years, she has had a financial path in Giant Furnace Refining and Celestial Thunder Pearl production.

True Master Cold Jade, on the other hand, comes from a loose cultivation background and joined the sect during the Tri-Nation War among Yan, Song, and Liang.

With no family background.

She stood out due to her exceptional Ice Techniques.

From many Cyan Cloud Sect family disciples, she seized the position of Core Formation Seed.

In the Dao Demon War, she fiercely fought Demon Cultivators, earning great merit.

Only then was she granted the Golden Transformation Pill, condensing the Inner Core.

In the impression of the sect’s True Masters.

True Master Cold Jade has a fiery temper, formidable combat power, and can craft Ice Talismans.

She’s indifferent to sect matters.

Why suddenly stockpiling spirit medicines?

"I instructed my disciple Shen Xuan to use his personal connections to purchase a large amount of spirit medicine."

"Is that not allowed?"

True Master Cold Jade said calmly.

Her icy gaze shot towards True Master Guang Wei.

True Master Guang Wei did not reply, cupped his hands in salute, let out a bitter laugh, and sat down.

With an expression of "this has nothing to do with me."

He wanted nothing to do with the dispute between True Master Changsheng and True Master Cold Jade.

Staying out of it was the best solution.

At this time, Mysterious Trace True Master had to step forward.

"Sister Cold Jade, suddenly purchasing a large amount of spirit medicine? Are you also considering practicing Alchemy Dao?"

Mysterious Trace True Master spoke with a smiling face.

As if joking.

"Reporting to Sect Leader Brother. As you said, Cold Jade is indeed pursuing the path of Alchemy Dao."

True Master Cold Jade said with a stern face.

The air seemed to freeze.

This answer not only took Mysterious Trace True Master by surprise but also caught all the True Masters off guard.

Even True Master Heavenly Aspect, who had been meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at True Master Cold Jade.

At the realm of a True Master.

Most of the time and energy is dedicated to cultivation.

The cultivation resources required are provided by the sect.

Even for cultivation techniques.

The focus is generally on enhancing existing cultivation techniques.

Occasionally learning new techniques as a supplement.

But Alchemy Dao is notoriously hard to learn and master.

Particularly dependent on the cultivator’s talent and insight.

Moreover, it requires inheritance and guidance from a wise teacher.

Exploring it independently is extremely difficult.

The entire Cyan Cloud Sect has only one Tier Three Pill Master, True Master Changsheng.

What is True Master Cold Jade thinking?

She’s an Ice Technique cultivator, yet she’s pursuing Alchemy Dao?

What a joke!
