Chapter 247 - Cooperation, the Foundation Building Pill Party is already in the formation

  "Junior Brother Lu, please stay!"

  Just as Lu Xuan summoned a spiritual crane and wanted to leave the power transmission hall, a soft voice came from behind him.

  He turned his head and saw the yellow-shirted woman he had seen in the side hall before, smiling at him.

  "Senior Sister Guan."

  The two had chatted for a while before, and Lu Xuan learned that the yellow-shirted woman was named Guan Wan, who was in the middle stage of foundation building and was proficient in alchemy.

  Guan Wan walked forward, with a smile on her elegant and quiet face.

  "I have heard about the spiritual plants that Junior Brother Lu taught today."

  "Junior Brother's attainments in spiritual plants are truly admirable. The many theories on cultivating spiritual plants are really enlightening and I am filled with emotion."

  "It was even more exciting to help the outer disciples solve various spiritual plant problems on the spot this afternoon. I wish I could be there in person to see Junior Brother Lu's style." "Senior

  Sister Guan, you are too kind. I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"

  The yellow-shirted woman's praise made the always thick-skinned Lu Xuan a little embarrassed, and he asked hurriedly.

  "The reason I found Junior Brother Lu is to discuss the possibility of cooperation with you."

  Guan Wan said softly with a serious expression.

  "Cooperation?" Lu Xuan was in high spirits.

  "That's right, Junior Brother Lu already knows that I have a good talent in alchemy and have a decent position in the sect's Alchemy Hall."

  "The Alchemy Hall supplies a large number of disciples in the sect with various kinds of elixirs, so the spiritual plants needed have reached an extremely terrifying level."

  "There are usually three ways to get materials. One is that when the sect disciples go out to explore the secret realm, they get them from the secret realm and return to the sect in exchange for spiritual stones or sword seals. Such materials generally have great uncertainty."

  "The second way is to entrust the families established by the sect disciples after leaving the sect to help plant spiritual medicines, generally those with large quantities and not high grades."

  Lu Xuan heard this and nodded slightly.

  The farthest he had ever been away from the sect was when he was invited by Yao Qing to go to a small island to solve the large-scale insect pest problem of the water spirit peach.

  "The last one is that the alchemists in the Dan Palace plant them themselves."

  "The Dan Palace has many medicine gardens in the sect, and each has different spiritual energy and spiritual soil, which can be used to plant various spiritual plants in a targeted manner."

  "For those spiritual plants of lower grades, tasks can be issued and entrusted to outer disciples."

  "High-grade spiritual plants, due to the increasing difficulty of cultivation, are usually handed over to the alchemists in the Dan Palace or the famous spiritual plant masters in the sect to help cultivate them."

  "This time I found Junior Brother Lu, and I want to establish such a cooperation model with Junior Brother."

  "What are the specific contents of the cooperation?"

  Lu Xuan felt a little moved.

  "The Dan Palace will provide spiritual seeds and pay you a certain number of sword seals as a guaranteed reward."

  "When the spiritual plants mature, an assessment will be made based on the number and quality of the spiritual plants. If the survival rate of the spiritual plants is high and the quality is excellent, you will be given an additional reward."

  "If the survival rate is too low and the quality is average, there will be no punishment, but the cooperation between the two will be interrupted."

  The yellow-shirted woman explained patiently.

  "Is there such a good thing?"

  Lu Xuan muttered secretly in his heart.

  The spiritual seeds provided to the foundation-building cultivators for planting are of at least grade three, and the number will not be just one or two.

  In addition, there is a sword seal as a guaranteed reward, and if the quality of the spiritual plants is good, there will be another reward.

  Of course, the light ball reward is the top priority.

  Where else can you find such a good thing?

  "Thanks to Senior Sister's kindness, I am willing to establish a cooperative relationship with the Alchemy Palace and help the Alchemy Palace and Senior Sister solve their problems."

  Lu Xuan said earnestly.

  "The main thing is to make a contribution to the sect. As for whether there is a light ball or not, it is not important."   

  He added in his mind.

  "Okay, welcome to Junior Brother Lu. With your attainments in spiritual plants, you will definitely not let us down."

  Guan Wan said softly.

  "I wonder if Senior Sister can tell me what kind of spiritual plant it will be?"

  After having a rough intention of cooperation, Lu Xuan asked curiously.

  "The specific type of spiritual plant depends on the needs of the alchemy master in the Alchemy Hall. In addition, the Sinong Hall also needs to go through the process. It will be given to Junior Brother Lu within ten days at most."

  "If it goes as expected, it should be one of the main ingredients for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill."

  "Foundation Establishment Pill?"

  Hearing the words of the yellow-shirted woman, Lu Xuan showed a hint of surprise on his face.

  "As far as I know, the formula of the Foundation Establishment Pill is the core secret of the sect. If the corresponding spiritual plant is given to others to plant, will there be a risk of leaking the formula?"

  He said with some concern.

  "Junior brother, you worry too much."

  "There are many kinds of spiritual plants for refining foundation-building pills, including spiritual plants of the third grade and above. It is not so easy to collect them all."

  "Besides, it doesn't matter even if you know the specific types of spiritual plants.

  Alchemy pays more attention to the processing methods of various materials, the matching proportions, the refining techniques, and even the grade of the pill fire, etc."

  Guan Wan said confidently.

  "Really? Then I'm relieved."

  Lu Xuan responded, somewhat disapproving of what Guan Wan said.

  Other cultivators, even if they collected all the spiritual plants needed to refine the foundation-building pill, could not successfully crack the pill formula.

  But he is different. He only needs to cultivate one of the important spiritual plants, and he will have a high probability of getting the foundation-building pill formula from the light ball! After

  cultivating spiritual plants for so many years and obtaining hundreds or thousands of light balls, Lu Xuan has already figured out a certain pattern.

  Although the rewards in the light ball seem to be random, there are actually traces to follow, and they are deeply related to the types, effects, and properties of the spiritual plants.

  For example, Lingying grass can be used to refine the restoration and Peiyuan pill. The rewards include Peiyuan pill and pill recipe, and it may replace Peiyuan pill and directly improve cultivation.

  Jiancao is a natural sword weapon. The rewards include Xunlei Sword Pill, Sword Embryo, and Flying Sword.

  There are also the recently matured Fiery Fruits, which have a strong fire attribute spiritual power.

  The rewards from the light ball include the third-grade magic weapon Exploding Flame Pearl, the third-grade pill Fenyuan Pill, Red Lotus Flame, and "Flame Art", all of which have a certain relationship with fire spirits.

  Therefore, if you really want to cultivate the spiritual plants that are the main materials for the foundation-building pill, then when they mature, there is a high probability that you can get the foundation-building pill or even the foundation-building pill recipe from the light ball.

  Thinking of this, Lu Xuan smiled even more.

  "Then please pay more attention to it, Senior Sister Guan. If you are sure, you can come to my cave to find me."

  "I usually stay in the cave, planting spiritual plants and raising spiritual beasts."

  Lu Xuan left a communication talisman for the yellow-shirted woman.

  "Okay, come and bother me when the time comes."

  The yellow-shirted woman happily took the talisman and left.

  Lu Xuan's mouth curled up.

  "I have always followed the rules in the sect, and I had no intention of stealing the secret recipe, but I didn't expect it to get to me and directly enter my mind. I couldn't help it."

  "The core secrets of the major sects, the recipe for the foundation-building pill, are already in the formation."
