Chapter 22

Thunderous Sword Force

“I did discover something, but whether there is a problem or not, Eldest Miss will need to find someone to verify it.”

Chen Fei hesitated for a moment. Chen Fei did not care about the ratio of shares. After all, the majority of the shares would be from the black market. However, the Light Spirit Pill that Zhang Sinan mentioned completely piqued Chen Fei’s interest.

The Light Spirit Pill was a cultivation pill of a higher level than the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. It was usually consumed by martial artists in the Bone Tempering realm or even the Marrow Tempering realm. Thus, the medicinal effects were much stronger than Qi Rejuvenation Pill, and the price was naturally much higher.

If Chen Fei could obtain the formula for the Light Spirit Pill, he could replace the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. He could either consume it himself or sell it on the black market.

“Speak!” Zhang Si Nan said calmly.

“The medicinal fragrance of the Light Spirit Pill on Steward Sun’s body is quite strong,” Chen Fei said gravelly.

The nose of an alchemist was sharper than other martial artists, especially when it came to medicinal ingredients. Chen Fei had seen and even eaten the Light Spirit Pill before, so he was very familiar with it.

As the manager of the medical hall, it was normal for Sun Shu to have the smell of pills on him. However, the smell of the Light Spirit Pill overshadowed all the other pills. That was not normal. He was not an alchemist.

Only by coming into contact with it every day, or even consuming it for many years, would the fragrance of the Light Spirit Pill be so strong.

The price of the Light Spirit Pill was not low. One pill could cost fifteen taels of silver, which was one and a half times the price of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. Although Sun Shu was the manager of the medical hall, his salary was far from enough to support consuming one Light Spirit Pill a day.

Zhang Si Nan’s eyes lit up. If Chen Fei could deduce that much, Zhang Sinan naturally could as well. If it were really as Chen Fei said, then Sun Shu’s problem would be huge.

“We can ask Old Qin to confirm it.”

Zeng Defang said with a smile. The Old Qin he was talking about was a physician, but he was extremely sensitive to the smell of medicinal pills. Whether the matter was as Chen Fei said, he would know once he got in proximity to them.

“If things are really as you said, then the pill formula for the Light Spirit Pill is yours,” Zhang Sinan looked at Chen Fei and said.

“Thank you, Young Miss!” Chen Fei cupped his hands.

As night fell, Chen Fei changed his figure and appearance. He wore a mask and a bamboo hat and appeared in the black market.

When Chi Defeng saw Chen Fei, he led him into a room. He pointed at the herbs on the ground and said, “After a few days of hard work, I’ve finally gathered all the ingredients. You don’t know how hard it was. The price last time was really a little too low.”

Chen Fei didn’t reply. He stepped forward to examine the medicinal ingredients. A moment later, Chen Fei stood up and calmly looked at Chi Defeng.

“What?”

Chi Defeng was a little scared by Chen Fei’s stare and said unhappily, “Don’t tell me you suddenly don’t want these medicinal herbs anymore? Let me tell you, the price can still be discussed, and you have to take all the medicinal herbs.”

“Did you make these imitation herbs yourself?” Chen Fei asked calmly.

“What? There are also imitation herbs. How is that possible?” Chi Defeng shouted loudly with an incredulous expression. He then walked towards the medicinal herbs and examined them carefully.

Chen Fei wanted to roll his eyes. People who didn’t know would probably be fooled by this act. If it weren’t because Chen Fei was an alchemist himself, ordinary people really wouldn’t be able to tell he difference.

Without a certain level of foundation, it was impossible to make fake medicine of this level.

“There’s actually really a fake one. Those damned refugees have deceived me! ”

Chi Defeng cried out bitterly. He shouted a few times, but when he saw that Chen Fei didn’t have any reaction, he couldn’t help but retract his voice awkwardly.

“What do you have to say?” Chen Fei looked at Chi Defeng and asked.

“I took a look. There aren’t many fakes, just a little,” Chi Defeng said with a smile.

“I want ten portions. There are only six portions in there. You’re right, it is a little.” Chen Fei nodded.

“So many? I couldn’t tell earlier. Those mother**ers!” Chi Defeng shouted loudly again.

“This is the silver for six sets of medicinal herbs. I still want ten sets next time. I’ll come y to collect it in three days.”

Chen Fei took out the silver and handed it to Chi Defeng. He picked up the herbs and turned to leave the room.

Chi Defeng shook the silver in his hand and looked at Chen Fei’s back. He couldn’t help but smile. It had been a long time since he had met such a smart young man. It was really interesting.

Chen Fei carried his bag and left the black market.

Chen Fei had calculated that ten portions of medicinal herbs would not be that eye-catching. Carrying a big bag and leaving the black market would easily cause unnecessary trouble.

They way things were now was perfect.

After confirming that there was no one following him, Chen Fei carefully returned to his rented courtyard.

This was another courtyard that Chen Fei had rented after changing his appearance. After all, he would be selling Qi Rejuvenation Pills in the black market in the future. It would be safer to be careful and not collide with his original identity.

He had already specially tidied up a room and transformed it into a pill room.

Chen Fei tidied up the medicinal herbs in his bag and began to refine the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. With his current mastery of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill, which was close to Great Completion, refining six sets of medicinal ingredients actually required very little time.

As long as one mastered the technique, many things that seemed extremely complicated to laymen could sometimes be very simple.

Two hours later, the pill refinement was completed. Chen Fei looked at the 15 Qi Rejuvenation Pills in the bottle and couldn’t help but smile.

This was more than 100 taels of silver. If his Qi Rejuvenation Pill’s proficiency increased to Great Completion, the number of pills produced from each furnace would increase again.

It would not take long for Chen Fei to accumulate five hundred silver taels.

Putting the medicine bottle in his pocket, Chen Fei looked at the interface.

Name: Chen Fei

Class: Warrior

“Cultivation Techniques: Clear Mountain Sword (Great Completion), Wind Suspending Breathing Technique (Great Completion), Cloud Crossing (Great Completion), Disguise Technique (Great Completion), Immortal Way (Unlearned)”

Realm: Body Tempering (17

/10000)

Alchemy: Vitality Pill (Great Completion), Detox Pill (Great Completion), Healing Pill (Great Completion), Qi Rejuvenation Pill (Perfection 7931

/10000)

Status: Gangrene (-)

They were almost all at the stage of Great Completion. The sword technique Immortal Way was a little eye-catching even though it had not reached the beginner level. Because he had broken through to the Body Tempering Realm, the state of the Gangrene had also changed. There was an additional minus sign at the back, and the impact on Chen Fei had also decreased greatly.

At the same time, the Wind Suspending Breathing Technique and the Qi Rejuvenation Pill had greatly reduced their effects on cultivation. However, the effect wasn’t bad. It still increased by about 20 experience points per day.

In other words, under such circumstances, it would probably take Chen Fei more than a year to break through to the Bone Tempering realm.

It wasn’t considered slow. It was already faster than most martial artists. Many martial artists would even remain stagnant for their entire lives.

If Chen Fei wanted to speed up his cultivation progress, he would have to change it up and take the Light Spirit Pills and strengthen the Wind Suspending Breathing Technique. With one of the two, Chen Fei’s cultivation speed would be able to increase smoothly.

With that thought, Chen Fei took out a secret manual.

According to Chi Defeng, this was also the cultivation technique of the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect, the Thunderous Sword Force!
