Chapter 420: If You Are Tired of Living
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Ha ha ha ha… I am Zhu Lang, and this is the first time I see such an audacious alchemy master. Very well, I will give you your remuneration first.” The hawk-eyed man took out six immortal spirit herbs and threw them in front of Di Jiu. “These are six level-seven immortal spirit herbs. If you are unable to refine the elixirs… He he…”
A few cultivators who wanted to approach Di Jiu decided to leave after seeing Zhu Lang. All the greedy wolves knew that the newcomer had gotten into deep trouble.
Zhu Lang had another nickname. He was called the Hawk Wolf, which meant that he was cruel and merciless. Countless cultivators had died in his hands. Therefore, the foreign cultivator was probably doomed now that he had offended the Hawk Wolf.
Di Jiu took a look and realized that the six level-seven immortal spirit herbs were the most common kind. He did not mind, as he collected the level-seven immortal spirit herbs to attain the Immortal Elixir King realm and he was well aware that he would not be able to find rare level-seven immortal spirit herbs here.
Di Jiu took the storage bag and walked into the room after putting the immortal spirit herbs away.
The number of cultivators surrounding Di Jiu suddenly increased after they saw him putting the immortal spirit herbs away. Even the cultivators who were afraid of Hawk Wolf watched from afar.
Everyone wanted to know how this would end. If Di Jiu could not refine the Ultimate Gamma Elixir, he would be killed by Hawk Wolf on the spot. Of course, some people anticipated that Di Jiu would refine the Ultimate Gamma Elixir, which would be very good news for them.
The longest time needed to refine one cauldron full of Ultimate Gamma Elixirs was less than a day. Therefore, the cultivators only needed to wait one day to know the outcome.
Di Jiu entered the room and opened the restriction. Refining a cauldron full of Ultimate Gamma Elixirs would only take him an hour.
Di Jiu deliberately dragged this time to nearly four hours, as this would be his first cauldron of elixirs before opening the restriction.
“How’s it going?” Hawk Eye’s voice was filled with excitement when he saw Di Jiu stepping out. The main immortal spirit herb used for refining the Ultimate Gamma Elixir was the Three-Leave Sangharama, but he only had two of them.
Hawk Eye decided to seek Di Jiu’s help because he could not find a grade-six alchemy master to do it for him and he was desperate to attain the Great Zenith Realm. He tried any possible way, since Di Jiu would be killed if he failed.
Di Jiu raised his hand and threw a jade bottle at Hawk Eye. “It’s done. Take a look at it.”
Hawk Eye grabbed the jade bottle and opened it hurriedly. There were six elixirs in the bottle, including five high-grade elixirs and one with faintly visible imprints, which was a supreme-grade Ultimate Gamma Elixir.
Other than the three Ultimate Gamma Elixirs he kept for himself, all the elixirs Di Jiu gave Hawk Eye were high-grade elixirs without any imprints. Frankly speaking, Di Jiu did not enjoy refining these elixirs. He needed more control over the quality of the elixirs, not to make them better but worse.
Di Jiu was well aware that once he refined the supreme-grade Ultimate Gamma Elixir, he would not be able to remain in this place anymore.
“Good elixirs, good elixirs…” Hawk Eye was exhilarated as he cupped his fists in front of Di Jiu. Then, he turned around and left quickly.
Everyone knew that Hawk Eye was going to attain the Great Zenith Realm.
News of Di Jiu refining the Ultimate Gamma Elixir for Hawk Eye spread across the Dark Ruins Canyon in a very short time.
Instantly, countless cultivators who wanted to get the elixirs swarmed around Di Jiu. Within two hours, a crowd of cultivators had formed around Di Jiu’s stall. Even some cultivators from other places came to ask Di Jiu for help.
The cultivators cultivating in the Moon Ruins had a large amount of immortal spirit herbs, so all they needed was an alchemy master to refine the elixirs for them.
“I want to refine a cauldron of Ultimate Jade Elixirs. How many level-seven immortal spirit herbs do you need?”
“I want to refine the Clear Drizzle Elixir…”
“I want to refine the Great Unity Elixir…”
Di Jiu gestured to quieten the crowd. “Everyone, grade-six elixirs will be refined first. I will refine the other elixirs after I have finished refining the grade-six elixirs.”
“Why?” someone in the crowd exclaimed in frustration. “It’s not like I cannot afford to give you level-seven immortal spirit herbs. Why do you have to refine the grade-six elixirs first?”
Di Jiu said emotionlessly, “The remuneration for refining the grade-six elixirs is six grade-seven immortal spirit herbs. If you can give those to me, I can refine the Great Unity Elixirs for you.”
“It’s a deal. I want to refine a cauldron full of Great Unity Elixir.” A man with a yellow face squeezed through the crowd and threw a storage bag at Di Jiu. “I want to refine these. Your reward is inside.”
Di Jiu was not there for charity. He intended to get grade-seven immortal spirit herbs. Since someone was willing to offer six level-seven immortal spirit herbs just for Great Unity Elixirs, there was no reason for Di Jiu to reject him.
“I can give you six level-seven immortal spirit herbs too. I want to refine the Ultimate Heavenly Elixir…”
Almost all the cultivators who wanted to refine elixirs took out six level-seven immortal spirit herbs after discovering that this was Di Jiu’s criteria for refining elixirs. Exchanging grade-four or grade-five elixirs by using six level-seven immortal spirit herbs was not a good deal. Hence, the cultivators wanted to refine the elixirs that were the toughest to make.
However, the cultivators asked Di Jiu to refine some rare elixirs that even typical Great Alchemy Masters had difficulty refining.
Di Jiu did not reject anyone. After all, he could refine any grade-six elixirs. His Alchemy Dao had been developed from the Ninth Dao law. Therefore, once he could refine one grade-six elixir, he could create any other grade-six elixir as long as he had the right formula.
Di Jiu stopped collecting level-seven immortal spirit herbs within three days. He wanted level-eight immortal spirit herbs, so he would refine two cauldrons full of elixirs for one level-eight immortal spirit herb.
The number of cultivators seeking Di Jiu’s help decreased drastically when Di Jiu announced his new request. Many people wanted to blame Di Jiu’s request, but they were worried that he would find other people to help him. Offending a grade-six alchemy master was no laughing matter, as one could risk being killed.
Some common level-seven immortal spirit herbs could be found in the Dark Ruins Canyon, and many cultivators gave Di Jiu herbs it had taken them years to collect. However, it was very difficult to find even the most common level-eight immortal spirit herbs.
Di Jiu only received five to six level-eight immortal spirit herbs after waiting a few days. He knew that this way of collecting level-eight immortal spirit herbs would not work well.
Thus, he did not waste any time when his business started not doing well. He was almost done refining the level-seven immortal spirit herbs he had collected over the past three days and he had become a grade-seven Elixir King who could refine elixirs with eight pill inscriptions. He could even refine grade-seven elixirs with nine inscriptions if he used another cauldron.
He could open the third level of the Dai He Hall after he returned to the place even if he could not get the level-eight immortal spirit herbs.
Di Jiu decided to leave the Moon Ruins after becoming a grade-seven Elixir King officially. He needed to go back and enter reclusive cultivation because he had been out for quite some time.
“Are you able to refine grade-seven elixirs?” A middle-aged man with a face that resembled a dead man walked over as Di Jiu was about to close his stall.
“It’s a wrap. Come next time.” Di Jiu did not entertain the dead-faced man, as that mid-stage Immortal King behaved as though others owed him a living.
Although Dead Face did not understand what Di Jiu meant, he continued staring at Di Jiu as he said, “If you can refine grade-seven elixirs and help me, I will lead you to a place where you can find the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit.”
Di Jiu stopped what he was doing. The Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit was a level-seven immortal spirit fruit that could be used to refine the King Elixir, which would be very useful in helping one attain the Immortal King realm. Although Di Jiu did not really need it, Jie Huang and Mo Yuxuan needed it.
Dead Face used the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit to entice Di Jiu, probably because he knew that Di Jiu had not reached the Immortal Kind realm.
“What kind of elixir do you want to refine?” Di Jiu would not have bothered humoring that Immortal King if he had offered something else.
“I’ve realized that there were basically no middle-grade elixirs among the grade-six elixirs you refined, only high-grade ones. There were also instances of supreme-grade ones. You started off collecting level-seven immortal spirit herbs, but now you want level-eight spirit herbs. Therefore, I suspect that you are a grade-seven alchemy master.” Dead Face stared at Di Jiu without blinking.
Di Jiu said coldly, “Just say whatever you want to and stop beating around the bush. The Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit is indeed very precious, but it is not difficult for me to get it.”
Dead Face probably knew that Di Jiu was not lying and was likely to be a grade-seven elixir king. Therefore, it was very likely that he could get a Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit.
“Can you refine this elixir? If you can’t, I can provide you with a huge amount of grade-seven immortal spirit herbs to practise. I will not shortchange you when it comes to the remuneration you should get.” Dead Face passed an incomplete prescription to Di Jiu.
Di Jiu scanned it by using his Spiritual Force and realized that it was the Spiritual Fruit of Dao and the Hundred Vein Flower. The main immortal spirit herbs required were the Spiritual Fruit of Dao and the Hundred Vein Flower. Both were extremely rare grade-seven herbs. This was the first time Di Jiu was seeing that formula. However, just a look at it made him realize that it was very difficult to refine this elixir.
Di Jiu had not acquired many grade-seven elixir formulas, and this elixir was significantly tougher to refine than the ones he had created in the past. In addition, these elixirs would only be effective with seven pill inscriptions.
Di Jiu, who was certain that he could refine the elixir, threw the formula at Dead Face casually and said calmly, “I can refine this elixir…”
Dead Face was not happy after hearing Di Jiu’s words. Instead, killing intent wrapped around Di Jiu while he threatened Di Jiu by saying, “If you want to die, I can fulfill your wish now.”
