Chapter 1695: Rejuvenating Pill

When Zhang Feng heard Hao Xing, he couldn’t help but turn red. He quickly changed back to a majesty of a Senior Brother as he said, “Stop talking nonsense. I just called you over to ask about a few things. If what you and Little Hai said is true, then we can’t digest this business on our own. I have to see Uncle. I need to ask for his help.”

Hao Xing nodded and said, “Not only the Gang Leader, we also need to pull the Han Clan in. Even if we have the pills, we won’t have any channels to sell them to. Although the Han Clan has hidden themselves all these years, they also have businesses under their control. They’re not inferior to the Hu Clan in this aspect. We can borrow the Han Clan’s channels to sell our product.”

Zhang Feng nodded, then he looked at Hao Xing and said, “Don’t disturb Little Hai in the following days. Also, prepare some faith power for Little Hai, he’s planning to condense his dao avatar.”

Hao Xing complied, “Leave it to me.”

Zhang Feng nodded and then returned to his room. He used the transmission formation to visit Tie Zhantian to discuss the pill business.

Zhao Hai has no interest at all about what Hao Xing and Zhang Feng were discussing. It would be fine as long as he gives the pill recipe to Zhang Feng. As for condensing his first dao avatar, that was just an excuse. Condensing a dao avatar was too easy for Zhao Hai. The reason Zhao Hai was eager to condense dao avatars was because his strength is too low. It would be bad for him if he encountered a battle that needed all of his strength but he wouldn’t be strong enough.

Now that he was following Zhang Feng, his future enemies would no doubt be strong. If he doesn’t increase his strength, then he would inevitably be pressured by the enemy in the future.

Zhao Hai already thought about what dao avatar he wants to condense. He wanted to condense an elephant dao avatar. This avatar would be compatible with Li Lin’s ident.i.ty. Li Lin was a body cultivator with great physical strength. Since Zhao Hai was going to use Li Lin’s ident.i.ty for a long time, then he would need a dao avatar that would be in character for Li Lin.

Dao Avatars also needed compatibility with its user. If you were an a.s.sa.s.sin, then you would be compatible with a snake avatar. If an a.s.sa.s.sin used an elephant dao avatar, then they would have a lot of trouble being stealthy.

On the other hand, if a cultivator was focused on their strength, then an elephant dao avatar would be the best choice. The elephant itself was a symbol of strength. Only a dragon would be stronger than an elephant. This shows how deeply people see the elephant as a symbol of strength.

Because of this, Zhao Hai chose the elephant-shaped dao avatar. Naturally, he cannot show his elephant dao avatar right now. He would do it when he’s at the end of his seclusion.

As for Zhang Feng’s negotiation with the Han Clan and Tie Zhantian, Zhao Hai didn’t care. He wasn’t keen on politics. This was something that Zhang Feng should worry about, not him.

Three days pa.s.sed in a blink of an eye. Zhao Hai walked out of his room and went to Zhang Feng’s office. There were two disciples standing outside Zhang Feng’s room. These disciples weren’t weak. And from their breath, it could be seen that they had condensed their dao avatar for a long time.

Zhao Hai also knew that these disciples weren’t there to guard Zhang Feng. Instead, they were there to ask Zhang Feng for an audience. Zhang Feng was now very busy, so he had no time to see everyone. Therefore, these disciples can only wait outside.

The two inner disciples also noticed Zhao Hai. When they saw him, they gave Zhao Hai a nod. Zhao Hai also returned the gesture. As Zhao Hai got close, they saw the door to Zhang Feng’s room open. Then Zhang Feng’s voice was heard, “Li Lin, come in.” Zhao Hai cupped his first towards the two disciples before going in.

Seeing Zhao Hai enter, the two cultivators couldn’t help but be envious. They had already waited outside for some time but Zhang Feng still didn’t call them. But when Zhao Hai arrived, he was immediately allowed in. They could see how important Zhao Hai was in Zhang Feng’s mind.

However, the two disciples could only keep these thoughts inside. Zhang Feng wasn’t a saint. If they offended Zhang Feng, then they would be dealt with.

When Zhao Hai entered Zhang Feng’s room, Zhang Feng looked at him and asked, “Little Hai, how is it?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and then took out a jade slip. Then he said, “Senior Brother, this is the recipe and the refining method. If the pill is made according to the instructions, nothing should go wrong.”

Zhang Feng received Zhao Hai’s jade slip and then read its contents. He saw the recipe as well as the refining method. It also included which herbs to use and how much. There’s also notes about the temperature to use. Some of these methods Zhang Feng never heard of.

Zhang Feng held the jade slip and looked at Zhao Hai with a shocked expression. Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “My ability isn’t as simple as recycling and remaking materials. Although I cannot directly refine a pill, Senior Brother shouldn’t forget how many sc.r.a.p materials I have come across. While recycling these materials, I acc.u.mulated enough experience to know where they went wrong. I could also see a glimpse of the refining technique used to make it. I believe that the steps I provided are correct.”

Zhang Feng nodded, then he received the jade slip and said, “Little Hai, I want to thank you.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “First Senior Brother, you’re too polite. Right there’s also this. The materials inside should be enough to make 10 thousand pills. If failures are to be taken into account, it should still make several hundred pills. These several hundred pills should last for quite a while. After I leave my seclusion, I’ll recycle the waste pills and then head to the foreign trial to acquire more materials.”

Zhang Feng received Zhao Hai’s spatial bag as he nodded and said, “Alright, you can leave this to me. Also, here are 100 portions of faith power. It should be enough for you to condense a dao avatar. This is also a jade slip filled with notes about dao avatars. This should be helpful for you.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he received the spatial ring that Zhang Feng handed over. Then he bowed and said, “First Senior Brother, I’ll be closing up now. Goodbye.” Zhang Feng waved his hand.

Zhao Hai left Zhang Feng’s room and then returned to his own. Then he took out a jade sword message and then let it out after placing his message inside.

The jade sword message was intended for Han Buli. He told Han Buli that he would be in seclusion for some time. He already told Han Buli about his ident.i.ty as Li Lin. 

Zhao Hai didn’t want to hide his ident.i.ty from Han Buli. After all, Han Buli was his friend. Moreover, the Han Clan was a huge backing. With the Han Clan and Zhang Feng’s alliance, there was no point in hiding his ident.i.ty from Han Buli.

After informing Han Buli, Zhao Hai returned to the s.p.a.ce. Then he gave the faith power portions to Laura and the others for them to absorb.

Laura and the others naturally wouldn’t be polite. They already know that Zhao Hai doesn’t lack faith power. Therefore, they divided the faith power portions and began to cultivate.

There’s no danger in absorbing faith power. But Zhao Hai was still grateful towards Zhang Feng. 100 portions of faith power was a lot. In the Black Tiger Gang, inner disciples could only get one portion per month. But Zhang Feng directly gave 100 portions to Zhao Hai. This shows how much importance Zhang Feng attached to Zhao Hai.

While Zhao Hai was calmly cultivating inside the s.p.a.ce, Zhang Feng and the others were busy outside. After Zhao Hai closed up, Zhang Feng immediately went to his pill masters and gave them the recipe as well as the materials.

Because Zhao Hai’s instructions were very detailed and the fact that the pill wasn’t hard to make, Zhang Feng was able to see his first batch of pills three days later. The pill was emerald green and very beautiful. Knowing that the pill can restore youth, Zhang Feng decided to name it as the “rejuvenating Pill.”

Although the rejuvenating pill has been successfully made, Zhang Feng still didn’t know how effective it was. Because of this, he gave a pill to Hao Xing to have a female friend of his try it out.

Hao Xing naturally understood what Zhang Feng wanted to do. Therefore, he found a female cultivator who appeared to be in their 50th year and in the Core Formation Stage. He delivered the pill to her and added that he obtained the pill after a lot of hards.h.i.+ps. He also emphasized how effective it was.

The female cultivator’s immunity to beauty pills was practically zero. And although Hao Xing was a womanizer, he still treated women kindly. Therefore, the woman didn’t have any doubts and ate the pill.

There was no reaction right after eating the pill. However, some white hairs on the female cultivator’s head turned black overnight. The next day, the wrinkles on her face faded. On the third day, the female cultivator’s appearance reverted back to when she was still 20.

This caused a stir among the female cultivators of the Black Tiger Gang. Almost all female cultivators approached Hao Xing asking him where he acquired the pill from.

This was Hao Xing’s first time having problems dealing with women. But he still followed Zhang Feng’s instructions. He told the women that the pill was called the rejuvenating pill and he bought it from a medicine shop in the city. Naturally the medicine shop that Hao Xing mentioned belonged to the Han Clan. However, n.o.body was aware that it was under the Han Clan’s control.

At this point, Zhang Feng already joined hands with the Han Clan and Tie Zhantian. In an auction house far away from the Black Tiger Gang, ten rejuvenating pills were auctioned. These pills weren’t auctioned in a bundle but instead sold one by one.

The female cultivators from other sets don’t know about this, but those from the Black Tiger Gang brought all of their own savings to that city to purchase the pill.

However, because of the ruckus that the pill caused in the Black Tiger Gang, other sects began to take notice. But after hearing that it was a pill that was used by women to regain their youth, the sect masters soon lost interest.
