"In addition, we can secretly acquire the corpses of Demonic Beasts in Azure Void City. Those destitute loose cultivators should be willing to pick up and sell the corpses. As for the purchase price, you can set it yourselves."
"Alright, we can also hire a Qi Cultivation Disciple to purchase in the Sect market. With tens of thousands of people in the Sect, we should be able to acquire a substantial amount."
"Sure, you handle this. It would draw too much attention if I, as a Qi Cultivation Disciple, were to purchase a large quantity of Demonic Beast carcasses. Also, be cautious not to attract too much attention. Currently, I have no plans to disclose the formula and refining methods of this Elixir."
Zhang Chunfeng naturally understood what this Elixir meant for body cultivators. Body cultivators were rare because they required a significant amount of rare Spiritual Herbs to progress. Now, using the cheap flesh of some Demonic Beasts, they could refine an Elixir that enhanced cultivation levels. Previously, except for some high-tier Demonic Beasts, most were abandoned in the wilderness.
If this formula were to spread, it could affect the entire Cultivation World landscape. It would undoubtedly lead to an increase in body cultivators, who would hunt Demonic Beasts recklessly. Considering the scarcity of Demonic Beasts in the Eastern Cultivation World, they would quickly be depleted.
"Senior Brother, have you named this Elixir yet?"
"Oops! I forgot. I haven't named it yet. This Elixir, with Demonic Beast essence as its main ingredient, might as well be called Essence Elixir. By the way, take one."
After saying this, Wang Hong handed him a bottle, and Zhang Chunfeng opened it to find only one Elixir inside.
"Is this the Resplendent Visage Elixir?"
"Yes, I obtained a few Resplendent Visage Fruits in a secret realm. I kept two, and the other day, with nothing else to do, I refined them into this Elixir."
Resplendent Visage Elixir was a second-tier Elixir that, when consumed, preserved one's appearance for a hundred years.
Zhang Chunfeng put away the Resplendent Visage Elixir. He didn't find it strange that Wang Hong could refine second-tier Elixirs. In their eyes, Wang Hong was not an ordinary person, which was one of the reasons why they faithfully followed him.
After Zhang Chunfeng left, Wang Hong headed towards the Heavenly Authority Peak.
In the Task Hall, Wang Hong casually found a place to queue up. When it was his turn, he realized he had encountered the female cultivator with the pleasant voice and the big-nosed, small-eyed features from last time.
"Senior Brother, long time no see!"
Seeing Wang Hong, the female cultivator appeared delighted, her slightly chubby face blossoming with a smile like a large peony.
"Oh! Junior Sister Shui, long time no see." He remembered this fellow disciple's name was Shui Ruo'er.
"Senior Brother Wang! Are you posting a mission today, or accepting one?"
He remembered the last time Wang Hong posted a mission - a delivery task with triple the usual reward. This bold move had impressed her. More importantly, he had gifted her a bottle of Spirit Bee Royal Jelly, a first in her life to receive such a treasure.
After bringing it back, he made his sisters envious for several months.
"I'm going to pick up some Alchemy tasks today."
He now came every month to collect some Alchemy tasks, earning contribution points to exchange for Jade Scrolls in the Scripture Tower.
Wang Hong received the book-shaped Magical Weapon from the female cultivator and directly found the Alchemy section. Soon, he selected a task to refine 120 Condensing Qi Pills.
Refining one hundred and twenty in a month was not a small amount. With an average of four furnaces a day, he could diligently complete the task.
Wang Hong could refine twenty at once, completing all in a day without affecting his cultivation. Moreover, his Pill Success Rate when submitting Elixirs was gradually increasing, helping him establish his identity as an Alchemist.
After reaching Foundation Building, Sect Disciples became the backbone of the Sect, enjoying more benefits but also bearing more responsibilities. Sometimes, the Sect directly assigned dangerous tasks to Foundation Building Disciples, with high rewards but equally high mortality rates.
As Alchemists were generally not adept at combat, they were not sent on perilous missions. The Sect often assigned Alchemy tasks, which posed no difficulty for him.
Refining twenty materials in one furnace was effortless for him now. Additionally, excellent Alchemists had the chance to access more rare Spiritual Herbs, precisely what he needed.
Those not good at fighting, with low cultivation levels and lacking skills like Alchemy, were dispensable in any faction, ideal candidates to be cannon fodder.
"Senior Brother! Are you sure you want to take so many tasks at once? If you can't complete them, you'll be punished."
She knew that refining four furnaces of Elixirs every day would take up a lot of time and might affect his daily cultivation. Thus, she kindly reminded him.
"Thanks for your concern, Junior Sister. I need to earn more contribution points recently, and there's no better way than taking more Alchemy tasks."
"Oh, Senior Brother is currently short on contribution points? I have some, why not let me transfer them to you?" Saying this, she took out her Sect Token.
"No, no need! Thanks for your kindness. I'm not in a hurry; I can accumulate them slowly." Wang Hong quickly declined.
Seeing Wang Hong refuse, the female cultivator felt a bit disappointed, but she quickly concealed it.
"Senior Brother Wang, where do you live? If you have anything next time, you can send me a Transmission Talisman directly, and I can come to you."
She said with a smiling face. Wang Hong casually mentioned his address; after all, it wasn't a secret.
After receiving the required Spiritual Herbs for the tasks and leaving the Task Hall, Wang Hong headed towards the Scripture Tower.
This time, he didn't go upstairs but started looking for basic books on symbol-making on the first floor.
Back in Qingxu, he had wanted to learn the art of making symbols, but he was busy with Alchemy then, and time and energy were insufficient.
Now, having successfully built his Foundation, his strength increased, and with two hundred years of lifespan, his mindset relaxed. No longer did he feel the constant chase, as Qi Cultivation cultivators were considered ants that high-tier cultivators could crush anytime in the Cultivation World.
With two hundred years of lifespan, he no longer needed to tirelessly travel to earn resources like other cultivators. He now had ample time to slowly learn a new skill, and the hundredfold time dilation in his Space made learning even more favorable.
