If luck was good, they could still fumble out some trick to it through some attribute relationship between the spirit medicines.
Zuo Xin exclaimed in shock, “Even Alchemy Venerables are unable to restore to its original form?”
He Shuming shook his head and said, “In my opinion, Alchemy Venerable experts won’t cut it too! If this medicinal pill is refined by Ye Yuan himself, then his attainments in alchemy are absolutely above mine! It’s just that his cultivation is lacking, that’s why he’s not able to refine Tier 6 and above medicinal pills. But if it’s like this, then that person behind him … his strength would be too terrifying!”
Although unwilling to admit it, the truth in front of him still made He Shuming candidly admit defeat.
Zuo Xin was horrifyingly shocked when he heard that. This was just a Tier 5 medicinal pill. Logically speaking, Alchemy Venerable powerhouses should be able to restore the pill formula.
But He Shuming said such intricate pill must have Alchemy Emperors to work on it.
Zuo Xin gritted his teeth and said, “This batch of medicinal pills are of great importance. We’d better send it back to the headquarters! Later, I’ll make clear the situation to Lord Deacon. If these medicinal pills really can have their pill formulas restored, it will absolutely be highly beneficial to our Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company!”
He Shuming nodded his head, clearly in approval of Zuo Xin’s view too.
Under normal circumstances, Alchemy Emperor powerhouses would not even be bothered to take action and restore such low-level medicinal pills.
But in Zuo Xin’s view, if the pill formulas of these medicinal pills could be restored, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company would have profits pouring in!
Because the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s branches were everywhere; spanning several major regions. Once popularized, these few types of medicinal pills would absolutely be money trees!
Regardless whether the headquarters agree or not, these medicinal pills must all be sent back!
Zuo Xin believed that with upper echelons’ vision, they would absolutely be able to discern these Tier 5 medicinal pills’ value!
…
And at this time, Ye Yuan and Jun Tianyu were currently facing opposite each other.
“Brother Jun, I’ll demonstrate a set of martial technique now, named Azure Dipper Floating Zero Sword. You have to look closely!”
Chapter 740 - In the Limelight
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Nine Swords Stance!”
Ye Yuan gave a light cry. Nine figures suddenly divided. Nine streaks of swordlight merged into one, charging straight for the horizon!
Jun Tianyu was a person extremely arrogant at heart and haughty in manner. Regarding Ye Yuan’s enthusiasm, although he did not say anything verbally, he was still rather disapproving of it in his heart.
But the moment Ye Yuan’s Nine Swords Stance appeared, Jun Tianyu’s countenance suddenly changed.
“Supreme true intent! It’s actually supreme true intent!” Jun Tianyu exclaimed in shock.
But Ye Yuan did not answer. The second move was unleashed!
“Thousand Flowing Petals!”
“Myriad Rain Sword Blades!”
“Rending the Sky!”
Each move he executed, Ye Yuan’s sword intent blossomed a degree more!
When it reached Rending the Sky this style, Ye Yuan’s sword intent was already powerful to an unrivaled degree.
Jun Tianyu’s sword intent was involuntarily spurred on by Ye Yuan.
The sword intent on his body appeared rather disorderly. Under Ye Yuan’s sword intent, his sword intent was actually somewhat going out of control!
One had to know that he was two major cultivation realms higher than Ye Yuan. Such a bizarre thing would actually occur!
By the time Ye Yuan finished displaying the four styles of sword moves, Jun Tianyu had looked at Ye Yuan and smiled bitterly as he said, “Younger Brother Ye, you’ve kept me bitterly in the dark! You and I have been acquainted for so many days, and I actually didn’t know that you were even a Sword Path expert! What made me even more astonished was that you actually even comprehended supreme true intent!”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Not that I intentionally hid it. It’s just that I didn’t have the chance to take action these few days. Moreover, even if I comprehended supreme true intent, my cultivation realm is still a little too low when all is said and done.”
Right now, all the people in the city knew that an Alchemy Path genius appeared on Ancient Opulence Street, and even crushed Alchemy Saint He.
But the world did not know that this Alchemy Path genius was also a Martial Path genius at the same time!
A Martial Path genius who comprehended supreme true intent!
Although Ye Yuan’s supreme true intent had yet to be perfected, to a holy land, there were not many people able to comprehend a supreme true intent in total as well.
One should not look at how Jun Tianyu’s strength was formidable and not far from comprehending supreme true intent either. But to really reach the point of comprehending the elementary form of supreme true intent, he still had a very long way to go.
As for reaching perfection, it would probably be his life’s pursuit.
While Ye Yuan’s supreme true intent was clearly not too far away from perfection already!
To such a young martial artist, this was simply an inconceivable thing.
“Younger Brother Ye, you really astound me too greatly! Even for super holy lands’ geniuses, there aren’t many able to comprehend supreme true intent at your age either! If holy lands know that you comprehended Sword Dao to this kind of extent, they will definitely treat you like a treasure,” Jun Tianyu said.
“Huhu, I don’t like to be waited upon by other people nor do I need to be attended to by others as well. Brother Jun, leave this matter aside for the time being. Let’s exchange notes properly on Sword Dao these few days. Hopefully, it can be of assistance to you,” Ye Yuan said.
Jun Tianyu nodded and said, “That will be for the best!”
These few years, although Jun Tianyu delayed some cultivation time because of Liu Yiru’s affairs, the main thing was still that he fell into a bottleneck.
Not everyone could be like Ye Yuan, comprehending true intent by admiring the sight of a blossom shower.
And on this point, no one was able to help Jun Tianyu transcend the bottleneck.
But Ye Yuan was different. His comprehension on Sword Dao was extremely deep and already touched the true meaning of Great Dao.
Him giving pointers to Jun Tianyu frequently let him have a feeling of suddenly being enlightened.
Having an expert to give pointers when at this kind of bottleneck would yield the effect of twice the result with half the effort.
And Ye Yuan did not have the intention of holding back either, talking about his own comprehension towards Sword Dao for Jun Tianyu to hear.
Ye Yuan had a feeling that this trip probably would not go that smoothly. Therefore, the stronger Jun Tianyu’s strength was, the more assurance regarding their safety.
Of course, Ye Yuan did not idle away himself either.
For this trip, Ye Yuan did not stint to employ the chaos gems to slow down the flow of time!
With the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, Ye Yuan did not lack earth essence crystals for the time being now. All sorts of resources piling up, he broke through his bottleneck very quickly.
Cultivating nearly for six month in the Vast Heaven Pagoda, Ye Yuan broke through two minor boundaries in a row and finally broke through to the Fourth Level Divine Traversing Realm, reaching middle-stage Divine Traversing Realm!
But after reaching middle-stage Divine Traversing Realm, Ye Yuan’s consumption of resources became even scarier.
The 100 thousand merit points earned from He Shuming there was actually expended fully in these six months.
For He Shuming, 100 thousand m
erit points, it was actually not considered much. But to the Ancient Opulence City’s ordinary martial artists, it was absolutely an astronomical figure.
And Ye Yuan actually only broke through two minor cultivation realms after using finish these 100 thousand merit points.
If he let other martial artists knew, they would definitely let loose a torrent of abuse that he was prodigal.
But Ye Yuan had no choice too. Each time he broke through a minor cultivation realm now, the essence energy required was several times of ordinary martial artists. The medicinal pills expended was naturally sizable too.
Fortunately, the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s business these few days was extremely good. Ye Yuan spent fast, earned even faster.
From the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion opening for business until now, it was merely 10 short days. And in these 10 day’s time, the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion already completed the counteroffensive against the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company, virtually monopolizing the medicinal pill business of all martial artists under Boundless Realm.
There was no other choice; the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s Tier 5 medicinal pills were cheap and good. Only a fool would not come and buy.
And the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s approach squeezed the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company enough for them to choke.
Their discount sale was originally only planning on carrying out for a month. But now, they were forced to continue the discount indefinitely.
Zuo Xin originally thought that a month’s time was sufficient to take down the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion. Who knew that he was squeezed until he had no mood to have a temper now.
Except, even if the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company lowered prices to sell Tier 5 medicinal pills now, the Ancient Opulence City’s martial artists still did not buy it. This reduced the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s profit margin even more.
No advantage in quality, no advantage in price. The Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company fell into a huge predicament all at once, their profits shrinking by a large margin.
In just ten days, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company’s profits directly shrunk by 40%!
This kind of situation delighted Qian-er and Li Huisheng greatly.
Being suppressed by the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company for so many years, this turnover battle was fought extremely beautifully!
Although they lost 20% profit because they offended Ye Yuan, they still had a feeling of exaltation upon fulfillment now.
The one even happier was Yu Ming. This feeling of sitting at home and counting money was simply too awesome.
Ye Yuan gave Yu Ming 5% shares. Although it was only 5%, he got rich overnight now as well.
The feeling of counting money until one’s hands had cramps was simply too wonderful.
Yu Ming still had a feeling like he was dreaming until now.
But these few days, he also learned many things following behind Li Huisheng.
Ye Yuan handed such an important matter to him. He naturally did not dare to be perfunctory.
Yu Ming was a clever person. He knew that everything today was all given by Ye Yuan.
His emotional investment had already received immense return. But to want to sustain, it required even more hard work.
Ye Yuan lacked a competent helper in the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion, and if he did not perform well, there would naturally be people to come and replace him.
Just as the Fragrant Medicine Pavilion’s limelight was extremely flourishing, Ying Tianya finally dropped in.
Chapter 741 - Stone Stakes
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Alchemy Saint He, Master Ye, we’ll rest and reorganize for a bit in Clear Reed City, then head for that ancient grotto. That grotto isn’t far from here. I worry that the long night will be fraught with dreams. Better to enter earlier.”
Ying Tianya and the others came to a neighboring city, Clear Reed City, through the transmission array.
But after Ying Tianya arrived here, he seemed unwilling to stay in the city. No idea if it was concern about his junior, or things he wished to hide.
Regarding this, Ye Yuan and the rest naturally did not have objections.
This trip, Ying Tianya brought along Luo Fang and several late-stage Boundless Realm followers. The party of eight to nine people was rather conspicuous.
On He Shuming’s side, the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company also sent out a Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artist to protect him.
In this group of people, just the Heaven Enlightenment Realm powerhouses were as many as five.
Of course, He Shuming this Heaven Enlightenment Realm was basically equivalent to useless, a little better than nothing.
Along the way, He Shuming naturally faced Ye Yuan with fierce glares, but Ye Yuan had an indifferent air.
Towards this kind of ridiculous provocation, he did not care at all.
As long as the Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artist he brought could not beat Jun Tianyu, naturally, no one dared to touch him.
Through Ye Yuan’s bout of giving pointers, Jun Tianyu finally advanced another level on sword intent.
Although he still did not comprehend a supreme true intent, he found the path to comprehending a supreme true intent.
The party stopped over for a short while, then they headed straight for that ancient grotto.
The ancient grotto was situated on a chain of mountain ranges. Ying Tianya actually found the grotto’s entrance directly through no idea what kind of means.
Accurately speaking, it was a stretch of precipices.
Everyone looked for a long time, but there was no entrance at all, only ice-cold rocks.
Ying Tianya frowned and said, “How can it be? It should be here. Why isn’t there an entrance?”
He Shuming said, “City Lord Your Excellency, could it be wrong?”
Ying Tianya slowly shook his head and said, “The location Junior Apprentice Brother transmitted to me is definitely here beyond doubt. It’s just that there is no entrance. How did he enter? Everybody split up and search, see if there are any places resembling an entrance.”
Those subordinates he brought all scattered, searching for the ancient grotto’s entrance in the surroundings.
Very soon, someone shouted, “City Lord Your Excellency, there’s a stretch of stone stakes here!”
Everyone went over to take a look. Indeed, they saw a stretch of stone stakes 500 feet in circumference.
“It’s an array formation! As long as we crack the array formation, we’ll be able to enter the grotto!” He Shuming said with an excited look.
Regarding breaking into the ancient grotto this time, Ying Tianya made a solemn promise to not only give He Shuming a large reward, but the things obtained this trip would also belong to himself.
Therefore, He Shuming was still quite enthusiastic about this exploration.
Speaking of which, He Shuming was indeed an alchemist whose strength was rather formidable. Not only did he reach the Alchemy Saint Realm in pill refinement, but he also reached Tier 7 level in the Formations Path too. Therefore, he recognized that these stone stakes were an array formation with a glance.
Ying Tianya was overjoyed when he heard that and said, “Does Alchemy Saint He have any confidence in crack this set of array formation?”
He Shuming smiled and said, “Leave it to me! If even I can’t do it, everyone can only just look on powerlessly as well. However … City Lord Your Excellency, in our agreement for this trip, it didn’t include this segment!”
Among the people present, there was only him, one Tier 7 array master. If even he could not do it either, then indeed no one could do it.
Except, He Shuming did not know that among this group of people, there was still a Tier 9 array master.
He Shuming’s view was around the same as Jun Tianyu’s. Ye Yuan had immensely high attainments in alchemy. In other areas, he was probably just a normal person.
Ye Y
uan naturally recognized that these stone stakes were a set of array formation with a glance. But he had not seen this set of array formation before.
Moreover, Ye Yuan perceived that even though this array formation’s rank was not high, there were several areas extremely easy to make mistakes.
The person who set up the array formation clearly wanted to intentionally induce people to be duped.
Ye Yuan was originally planning on making a move. But looking at He Shuming being so enthusiastic, he could only shut his mouth and not speak.
This trip, his strength was the weakest. Better to be more low-profile.
If He Shuming was really able to crack the array formation, then it was naturally good. But if he could not, it was also not late for him to step forward then.
It was just that since the owner of the grotto dug so many traps, their group of people was probably going to suffer some hardships.
He Shuming blackmailing right away, Ying Tianya naturally had unhappiness in his heart.
Except, at this sort of time now, where would he go to find another array master?
“Alchemy Saint He, rest assured; after I rescue my junior, the rewards promised to you will add another 10%!” Ying Tianya said.
He Shuming was overjoyed once he heard and said, “Heh, it’s still City Lord Your Excellency who is straightforward! This He will crack the array formation right away!”
As he said, he came to the middle of the stone stakes and directly pushed a stone stake that was slightly higher all the way underground.
These stone stakes had different heights. The thickness was different too. The method to crack it was to press down some crucial stone stakes.
This area of land had around a thousand stone stakes. The array formation formed was also quite profound.
After He Shuming pressed down one stone stake, he stopped for a moment and found another stone stake to press down.
When Ye Yuan saw He Shuming press down the first stone stake, he involuntarily shook his head slightly.
But Jun Tianyu noticed this minute action of Ye Yuan and asked softly, “Why? Anything wrong with He Shuming?”
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Very wrong. This guy bragged so confidently, I even thought that he has some skill. Didn’t think that the first step was wrong! Be careful in a while, there will probably be something unforeseen.”
