"Haha, Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry."
"The Medicine King Canon is merely an auxiliary Cultivation Technique, not a primary one."
"Even if Fellow Daoist gets into a conflict with someone from the Dan Ding Sect in the future and a fight breaks out, they won't be able to discover that you've Cultivated the Medicine King Canon."
"Moreover, after Cultivating the Medicine King Canon, one can absorb the spiritual energy of Spirit Medicine to Cultivate. Even without a suitable Spiritual Vein, as long as there's suitable Spirit Medicine, it can achieve the same effect as a Spiritual Vein."
"Fellow Daoist, this is a good Cultivation Technique."
Zhang Tianhai sighed with emotion.
He even felt a bit of admiration for the Senior who created this Cultivation Technique.
Su Bai's gaze remained calm.
She wasn't swayed by Zhang Tianhai's boasts about the Cultivation Technique into impulsively buying it.
"Manager Zhang, since this Cultivation Technique is so good, logically, other Sects besides the Dan Ding Sect would also buy it to Cultivate, so why don't they Cultivate it...?"
When asked the crucial question, Zhang Tianhai slapped his thigh.
"Fellow Daoist, you've hit the nail on the head. To Cultivate this Cultivation Technique, one needs to be constantly immersed in various Spirit Medicine. It takes ten years just to get started and twenty years to truly begin Cultivating it."
"This condition is rare anywhere else besides the Dan Ding Sect."
"And even within the Dan Ding Sect, aside from a few Core Disciples, not many are willing to Cultivate it."
"After all, this is only an auxiliary Cultivation Technique, yet it consumes so much time, and its help for Cultivation isn't that significant, so..."
Towards the end, Zhang Tianhai rubbed his fingers together at Su Bai.
His meaning was clear.
He had explained it very clearly.
Although this Cultivation Technique was a famous Cultivation Technique of the Dan Ding Sect, not many people Cultivated it.
You could buy it and Cultivate it with peace of mind.
As long as you had plenty of Spirit Medicine, there was nothing to worry about.
Su Bai's small face wrinkled up.
It was too suitable.
This Cultivation Technique was too suitable for her!
"Alright! How many Spirit Stones!"
"Haha, two thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, please."
"That expensive!"
"Fellow Daoist, don't forget, we're also giving you a Lifespan Pill as a bonus."
"..."
Finally, Su Bai took the Medicine King Canon's Legacy Jade Slip and the Lifespan Pill into her hands, then left in silence.
After leaving Wanbao Pavilion, recalling Zhang Tianhai's smiling, sly merchant face, Su Bai always felt like she had lost out.
Or rather, she had been swindled.
However, since she had already bought it, there was no point in regretting it.
She also had a medicinal garden.
There were quite a few Spirit Medicine that were over a hundred years old.
She would directly complete the Cultivation of the Medicine King Canon, completely solving the problem of increased resistance from taking Medicinal Pills.
Once the Medicine King Canon reached Major Achievement, she wouldn't have to worry about Pill Poison anymore.
Currently, Su Bai still controlled her consumption of Medicinal Pills.
In the future, she would eat Medicinal Pills like meals!
Shoveling them into her mouth by the handful.
Now, the Pill Formula for auxiliary Cultivation had been bought, and an auxiliary Cultivation Technique had also been obtained.
"Cultivate with peace of mind."
She didn't even stay in Tianyun City for half a day.
Su Bai quickly departed.
After leaving the city gates, Su Bai flew while cautiously observing her surroundings.
Tianyun City's influence was vast, so there wouldn't be any robber cultivators nearby.
But Su Bai was still worried.
Fortunately, the Patrol Team in Tianyun City was very effective, and no robber cultivators dared to act rashly nearby.
She left safely.
After smoothly flying back to the Star Luo Archipelago, Su Bai landed on her Dao field.
The first thing Su Bai did upon returning home was to check the Formation.
"Very good, the Formation shows no reaction."
After the Formation check was complete, Su Bai walked around her house once more.
There were still no signs of disturbance.
"No one has been here."
It seemed that no outsiders had come here during the almost year she was away.
Before she left, she had been worried whether Xu Changge would come here.
Now, Xu Changge should be very busy.
She hadn't even sent her a sound transmission talisman.
But that was good too.
With no one to disturb her, she could Cultivate with peace of mind.
"First, I'll perform Alchemy, then I'll comprehend the Medicine King Canon."
She would first become proficient in the few Pill Formulas she had.
Su Bai took out the Pill Formulas for the Golden Marrow Pill, Gathering Spirit Powder, and Qi Refining Pill, then looked at the Spirit Medicine listed on them.
She had all of them in her medicinal garden.
Collecting Spirit Medicine seeds in earlier years wasn't for nothing.
Now, if she lacked any Spirit Medicine, she could just go directly to her medicinal field to pick it.
If the age wasn't enough, she would pour some Creation Essence and so on.
Moreover, Medicinal Pills for the Qi Refinement Stage didn't require many valuable Spirit Medicine.
She threw out her hoe.
After easily turning over the medicinal field twice, the Spirit Medicine Su Bai needed were collected and placed one by one in front of her.
Holding the freshly picked Spirit Medicine, there was no need to put them in a medicinal box; she simply threw them directly into the Pill Furnace.
She lit the fire and opened the furnace.
The Spirit Medicine were rapidly refined, and their medicinal liquid was extracted.
As a first-rank High Grade Alchemist, Su Bai could even refine Huanglong Pills to High Grade quality.
Now, even if it was a different kind of Medicinal Pill, but with similar medicinal properties, it naturally wouldn't stump her.
With skilled techniques, a furnace of Medicinal Pills was quickly formed.
Seven Golden Marrow Pills per furnace.
Su Bai looked at the seven shining Medicinal Pills in her hand.
Soon, one dimmed and turned into ashes, becoming a discarded pill.
Then, two more Medicinal Pills lost their luster and became inferior pills.
Finally, four Medicinal Pills remained, emitting an enchanting medicinal fragrance.
Medium Grade Medicinal Pills.
Not a single High Grade one.
She casually tossed the Medicinal Pills in her hand aside.
Su Bai was quite extravagant now; she wouldn't eat anything but High Grade Medicinal Pills.
These Medium Grade Medicinal Pills had ordinary effects and were difficult to refine.
They were far inferior to High Grade Medicinal Pills; they might sell well outside, but Su Bai herself wouldn't eat them.
Without resting, Su Bai took a Medicinal Pill to restore her spiritual energy.
She recalled the process of refining the Medicinal Pills just now.
The control of the flame was a bit too low, and the technique for retrieving the Medicinal Pills was a bit rough.
After summarizing her experience, she immediately began refining the next batch of Medicinal Pills.
With the help of a large quantity of Spirit Medicine, Su Bai's Alchemy proficiency continuously increased.
Medicinal Pills were constantly being produced.
In just two months, Su Bai completely mastered the refining technique for the Golden Marrow Pill.
She could now produce at least four High Grade Medicinal Pills per furnace.
"The Golden Marrow Pill is almost done; it's time for the Gathering Spirit Powder."
Su Bai ate Bigu Pills and meditated to rest.
The refining process never stopped.
She was in a heated state now, striking while the iron was hot.
The first furnace of Gathering Spirit Powder produced High Grade Medicinal Pills.
As Su Bai refined more and more Medicinal Pills, the quality of the Medicinal Pills she produced became more stable.
At least for Medicinal Pills in the Qi Refinement Stage, Su Bai could now guarantee that every furnace would produce High Grade quality Medicinal Pills.
This skill was enough for Su Bai to become a Guest Elder for many Families and be respected.
This time, she familiarized herself with the Gathering Spirit Powder even faster than the Golden Marrow Pill, taking only one and a half months.
The Qi Refining Pill was even easier.
It took less than a month to completely master it.
At this point, the number of Medicinal Pills in Su Bai's hands was so great that she could casually throw them around the house to feed the mice.
She still had a considerable amount of inventory left in her medicinal field.
"Growing my own Spirit Medicine really saves money."
Now that she had all the Medicinal Pills, Su Bai was ready to begin Cultivating the Medicine King Canon.
This Cultivation Technique would allow a Cultivator to become more familiar with the characteristics of Spirit Medicine, and after taking Medicinal Pills, they wouldn't have to worry about Medicinal Pill resistance and Pill Poison.
This Cultivation Technique would determine Su Bai's future Cultivation speed.
The more she took Medicinal Pills, the more fiercely she would Cultivate!
