Leaving the Yan family's meeting hall, Yan Batian hummed a small tune proudly and walked on the gravel path planted with poplar trees on both sides.

"Hmph! With my mother's support now, I will no longer be afraid to do things, the Xiong family, you are waiting for my monstrous anger!"

Just as he was thinking about what to do next, a middle-aged late-stage Qi cultivator with a very embarrassed face walked up to him on the opposite path, it was the third elder Yan Nanli.

Looking at Yan Batian, who was gradually approaching and radiant, Yan Nanli rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and a rare red cloud flashed on his old face.

"Young Patriarch, I have already done everything you have ordered, but I am just ......"

The corners of his mouth hooked up a hint of relief, Yan Batian knew that Yan Nanli was asking for himself, but he was not easy to open his mouth, and immediately his tone was straightforward.

"The Third Elder is not confident in his advanced foundation building period, and he wants to prepare more foundation building pills?"

An old face was even more red, and Yan Nanli muttered: "A few days ago, I spent a large amount of spirit stones at the Purple Light City Auction House and successfully auctioned a Zhuji Dan, and I already owe the family a lot of spirit stones, and I haven't paid it back yet." This time, I threw down my old face, and applied to the family for a material for refining the Zhuji Dan, and asked the young patriarch to refine it for me, if I succeed in building the foundation this time, I owe the young patriarch a favor, and I Yan Nanli will definitely remember it!"

With Yan Nanli's status in the Yan family and his relationship with Yan Nanxuan, it was easy to know how Yan Batian was refining the Peiling Pill in the Yan Alchemy Workshop.

It is many times more difficult to refine the foundation building pill taken by a monk in the Qi cultivation stage to advance to the foundation building stage than the Peiling Pill taken by a monk in the middle stage of refining qi training, and in order to condense into a pill, it is best to use the true fire in the foundation building stage monk's dantian to control the Dan liquid in the Dan furnace.

Obviously, Yan Batian was just a monk who had just advanced to the middle stage of Qi cultivation, and with his cultivation, the difficulty of refining the Zhuji Dan could be imagined.

But Yan Nanli has no other better choice. Among the people he knew, only the young patriarch Yan Batian's alchemy was the highest, and he could only turn to him for help.

The entire savings of an ordinary Qi cultivation cultivator in his life may not be able to afford to buy a single pill of Tsukidan. Sometimes, even if there are enough spirit stones, it may not be possible to buy Tsukidan.

The reason is very simple, the Zhuji Pill is simply a priceless pill in the immortal cultivation world. On the one hand, the raw materials required for Zhuji Dan are too long, at least more than a hundred years, and the production capacity is very limited, on the other hand, the requirements for refining Zhuji Dan for alchemists are also quite harsh.

Ninety percent of the alchemists who could refine the pills taken by the cultivators of the foundation building period were all gathered among the major immortal cultivation sects and tried their best to protect them.

The Tsukidan they refined was naturally distributed by the sect where they were located. The vast majority of them were given as rewards to the Qi cultivation stage disciples in the sect. As long as a small number of Tsukidan is built, it will be lost to the immortal city where the monks gather through auctions or other means.

When such a thing happens, it's not that the Zhuji Dan in the Immortal Cultivation Sect can't digest it internally, but the vast majority of it is out of forced helplessness.

After all, more than ninety percent of the monks have no chance to join the sect of cultivating immortals, and these monks want to build a foundation, and in the absence of a foundation building, they will inevitably take risks and go to steal the foundation building. There are even some powerful immortal cultivation families who will unite with many Qi cultivation period cultivators to go to the Immortal Cultivation Sect to force the palace together, asking them to hand over part of the Zhuji Dan for their use.

Fights because of Tsukidan occur almost every year, and countless monks are killed and injured. There are even immortal sects that have been directly attacked, and the Dao system has been uprooted.

Therefore, the strength of the Immortal Cultivation Sect is too strong, and it can't withstand such a fuss for a long time. I had to take the initiative to make concessions. Every year, according to the number and level of alchemists in the Immortal Cultivation Sect, a part of the Zhuji Dan is sent to the Immortal City by auction or reward for powerful monks to take in order to achieve the purpose of building the foundation.

As time went by, the previous large-scale battle to force the palace to seize the Zhuji Dan became less and less, and the Immortal Cultivation Sect that had been hit did not dare to easily break this hard-won balance that had been exchanged for the lives of countless monks.

Despite this, there are less than ten Tsukidans that can be allocated to Purple Light City every year, which is a drop in the bucket for a Purple Light City with millions of monks. Therefore, every grain of Tsukidan is born, it is fried to a sky-high price, even if it is the Yan family, which is a second-rate family in Ziguang City, the amount of Tsukidan that can be obtained every year will not exceed one pill, and most of the years are zero.

Yan Nanli, the third elder of the Yan family, because he was only one foot away from the foundation building period, got the support of the family in the case of his own application, so he took a hard-won pill of Zhuji Dan.

Yan Nanli also took on a heavy debt because of this, as long as he stepped into the foundation building period, it would not be too difficult to repay this debt. If the foundation fails, then in this life, you can only pay off the debts of the family as a cow and a horse.

Due to excessive psychological pressure, Yan Nanli did not dare to take Zhuji Dan easily and hit the bottleneck of the foundation building period without being completely sure.

It was not easy to know that the young patriarch Yan Batian had an amazing alchemy technique, and he had personally promised to refine the Zhuji Dan for himself, how could Yan Nanli give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Naturally, he immediately began to prepare the raw materials needed to refine the Zhuji Dan.

The Yan family uses alchemy as the main source of income, and there is also some inventory of raw materials for a hundred years of Zhuji Dan, but no one dares to use such expensive raw materials to refine Zhuji Dan, after all, once the refining fails, the losses caused are very huge, and no one can afford this consequence.

After promising very harsh conditions to the family, Yan Nanli got this hard-won raw material for refining Zhuji Dan.

Of course, the reason why the family agreed, was because Yan Nanxuan, the best alchemist in the family, highly respected Yan Batian's alchemy.

Taking over the storage bag that Yan Nanli had been holding tightly in his hand for a long time and was reluctant to let go, Yan Batian's expression had returned to flatness, and he said slowly: "The third elder must remember that this furnace builds the foundation pill, if the refining fails, I will not be responsible for compensation, if the refining is successful, I will only be responsible for giving you one grain, and the rest will be my reward!"

The cold sweat on his forehead rolled down like rain, and Yan Nanli replied in a trembling voice: "Although the young patriarch can rest assured to refine, if this furnace Zhuji Dan refining fails, I will have no regrets, and I will never blame the young patriarch for half a point." If the refining is successful, except for my one, the rest will all belong to the young patriarch!"

Just kidding, the price of a pill of Tsukidan is a hundred times more expensive than the raw materials. As long as there is a Tsukidan successfully baked, it will be a big profit.

"Okay, that's it!"

Putting away the storage bag containing the raw materials of Zhuji Dan, Yan Batian, who turned around and left, secretly laughed in his heart, "Failure? How is it possible? It's just Zhuji Dan, Third Elder, you just wait to get rich!"
