Chapter 1278: The Strongest Logistics Disciple in Sword Sect History
Chapter 1278: The Strongest Logistics Disciple in Sword Sect History
"Exactly."
Lu Xuan nodded lightly.
"During my travels in the Outer Domains, I happened to save a tree spirit that had lived for countless millennia. As a token of gratitude, it bestowed upon me the formula for the Life-Extending Pill."
He summoned the Xuanji Tree Mother, fabricating a plausible reason. After all, in a few years, she would be under his control, and once she entered the Carried Space, even his fellow disciples in the Sword Sect would have no way to verify her story.
"Junior Brother, I have a good relationship with the Hailou Trade Guild. After returning to the sect, I spent a long time studying the formula. Once I felt confident, I asked the guild to help gather the necessary materials and, by luck, managed to refine a few Life-Extending Pills."
Lu Xuan spoke offhandedly.
"Is that so."
Jian Zhenzhen murmured, not doubting him for a moment.
"However, I never expected that Junior Brother has such remarkable alchemical refinement skills, capable of refining a Seventh-Rank Spirit Pill."
The thought still felt surreal to him. The news that Lu Xuan had obtained a Life-Extending Pill was shocking enough, but the ability to refine one himself was on an entirely different level.
"Junior Brother, what is your success rate for refining the Life-Extending Pill now?"
He suddenly asked.
"About two to three in ten."
Lu Xuan considered his words carefully before giving a very conservative estimate.
"Two to three in ten? It seems your alchemical refinement talent surpasses even my expectations."
Jian Zhenzhen couldn't help but marvel. He had practiced for several hundred years and had a certain level of expertise in alchemical refinement. He knew very well what such a success rate implied.
Even the most skilled alchemical refinement masters in the Sword Sect's Pill Hall couldn't guarantee such a high success rate for a specific type of Seventh-Rank Spirit Pill.
"To be able to consistently refine a Seventh-Rank Life-Extending Spirit Pill and have such profound mastery over spirit herbs, to improve a sixth-rank sword grass, and to excel in spirit maiden cultivation and rune crafting—throughout the long history of the Sword Sect, Junior Brother, you are a unique existence."
"You can truly be called the strongest logistics disciple in the history of the Sword Sect."
Jian Zhenzhen shook his head, finding it more and more unbelievable as he spoke.
The Sword Sect had countless formidable cultivators, and many had left their mark in history, but they were known for their cultivation levels, sword techniques, or magical treasures. Someone like Lu Xuan was unprecedented and unlikely to be matched in the future.
"I can not only consistently refine but also mass-produce the Life-Extending Pill."
Lu Xuan smiled inwardly, secretly scoffing.
With the formula experience from the Tianyuan Fruit, the life essence provided by the Dragon Turtle and the Radiant Spirit Crane, he didn't need to worry too much about the quantity of Life-Extending Pills.
"Senior Brother, I intend to distribute the Life-Extending Pills I have to my fellow disciples. However, as you know, this is not an ordinary Seventh-Rank Pill. If I were to release them carelessly, it might attract some unnecessary trouble."
"I came to you to ask for your help in overseeing the distribution of these Life-Extending Pills."
Lu Xuan spoke half-truthfully.
"Junior Brother, I admire your intention."
"You're right. The Life-Extending Pill is extremely rare and holds significant appeal for most Netherborn disciples. To those Netherborn nearing the end of their lifespan, it is an invaluable treasure, and they would be willing to do anything to obtain it."
"While there may not be overt attempts to seize the pills within the Sword Sect, covert methods cannot be avoided."
"Rest assured, with me here, I will ensure that no underhanded tactics are used against you."
Jian Zhenzhen spoke with a serious expression.
The ability to refine a Seventh-Rank Life-Extending Pill was of great significance to True Sword Peak, making it a strategic resource. He would do everything in his power to protect Lu Xuan from any storms.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan immediately felt relieved.
"I have five Guihe Life-Extending Pills, and I plan to leave them all for my fellow disciples to digest."
"However, as you know, the ingredients for the Guihe Life-Extending Pill are hard to gather, and the success rate is extremely low. Therefore, I also hope to receive some compensation for my efforts."
After a moment's thought, he continued, addressing Jian Zhenzhen.
"Five pills! That’s quite a lot! But considering the entire Sword Sect, it’s like too many monks and not enough porridge. It will likely cause many senior disciples to compete fiercely for them."
Jian Zhenzhen nodded lightly, his face showing a hint of worry.
"However, what kind of treasure are you hoping to exchange the Guihe Life-Extending Pills for, Junior Brother?"
"Same old habits. First, I prioritize Eighth-Rank and above Spirit Seeds. Additionally, I’m interested in high-grade treasures related to Spirit Herbs, as well as high-rank demon beast eggs and younglings, and the Seed Condensation Technique."
"Also, Eighth-Rank and above matured spirit herbs are given the same priority as Spirit Seeds."
"Finally, I’ll consider rare magical abilities and magical treasures."
Lu Xuan had already made up his mind and replied without hesitation.
"Junior Brother’s obsession with Spirit Herbs truly earns you the title of the sect’s most skilled Spiritual Plant Master."
Jian Zhenzhen couldn’t help but marvel when he heard that Lu Xuan placed magical abilities and treasures at the bottom of his list.
After discussing the various issues that might arise from the public disclosure of the Guihe Life-Extending Pills, Lu Xuan took his leave.
"I still need to report to the Pill Hall."
Lu Xuan darted through the dense sword qi, quickly arriving at the entrance of the Pill Hall.
"Junior Brother Lu, it’s rare for you to visit the Pill Hall. Today, I must take the opportunity to learn from you about the alchemical refinement of Nether Spirit Pills."
Informed by the fellow disciple on duty, Huang Jinhu, who currently managed the Pill Hall, smiled and warmly greeted him.
"Senior Brother Huang, you flatter me. Let’s exchange and discuss together."
Lu Xuan humbly replied.
Huang Jinhu had been in the mid-Netherborn stage for many years and was in charge of the important Pill Hall, holding a very high status within the Sword Sect.
"Ha ha, Junior Brother, there’s no need to be modest. In terms of refining Nether Spirit Pills, you far surpass me."
Huang Jinhu laughed heartily.
Lu Xuan’s expertise in refining Nether Spirit Pills was well-known among many fellow disciples of the Sword Sect. Everyone envied his lucrative skill, and the Pill Hall had even tried to recruit him, but he had politely declined.
After a brief chat, Lu Xuan stated his purpose.
"Senior Brother Huang, I recently stumbled upon a formula for a Seventh-Rank Spirit Pill. I spent considerable effort gathering the ingredients and managed to refine a few pills."
"Since it’s closely related to the Pill Hall, I thought it best to inform you."
"Oh? A Seventh-Rank Spirit Pill? I didn’t expect Junior Brother Lu to have such good fortune."
Huang Jinhu was somewhat surprised. Even within the Sword Sect, Seventh-Rank Spirit Pills were quite rare, and every formula was a valuable asset to the sect.
"May I ask what specific Seventh-Rank Spirit Pill it is?"
"If it’s one of the existing types in the sect, then Junior Brother can handle it yourself."
"If it’s a new variety, then Junior Brother can choose whether to submit the formula."
"Submitting the formula to the Pill Hall will earn you a substantial reward. Of course, you can also keep the formula for yourself."
We are all from the same sect, so there will be no situation where fellow disciples try to rob each other of their treasures.
"Once the sect’s law enforcement disciples learn of such a situation, they will face severe punishment, possibly even losing their lives."
Huang Jinhu spoke slowly, clearly eager to hear about the Seventh-Rank formula Lu Xuan mentioned.
"To be honest, Senior Brother, it’s the Seventh-Rank Guihe Life-Extending Pill."
Lu Xuan said softly.
To Huang Jinhu, these words sounded like a thunderclap, causing a great stir in his mind.
"The legendary supreme life-extending treasure, the Guihe Life-Extending Pill?!"
He shot up from his seat and rushed to Lu Xuan’s side.
