Chapter 104 Weapon Refiners and Bloodline Advancement
At this moment, Yu Linglong stood cautiously in front of Gu Yuchuan. She had not been in the Flood Dragon Palace for very long and had no personal relationship with Gu Yuchuan. Therefore, she felt awe and admiration for Gu Yuchuan, after all, he was the one who saved their race.
"I heard you've become an alchemist, which is great news. From now on, our Flood Dragon Palace will have both alchemists and weapon refiners. However, your cultivation is the most important thing. Don't let alchemy cause problems with your cultivation; that would be putting the cart before the horse. All the arts of cultivation are meant to serve your practice. You must remember that."
Yu Linglong nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely work hard to cultivate and refine pills. I will absolutely not do anything that would be detrimental to Your Majesty."
The other party's sincerity made Gu Yuchuan quite happy. He was actually a little worried that the other party might be switching jobs. An alchemist is highly valued wherever he goes. However, after thinking about it, he realized that the other party had made a vow to the heavens, and he had saved their lives, so there was no way he would leave.
"I'll have a pill-refining furnace made for you these next few days, consider it an investment in you. From now on, if the materials you use for refining pills are provided by the Flood Dragon Palace, the profits will be split 30/70. If you obtain the materials yourself, the profits will be 90/100. I will do my best to train you. What do you think?"
This condition is extremely favorable, allowing her to accumulate a large amount of wealth.
“Your Majesty, the terms you have offered are far too generous. I am your subordinate. Without Your Majesty, there would be no me. I am not the kind of person who would forget kindness. There is no need for such favorable terms.”
The more aware she became of this, the more Gu Yuchuan felt that his approach was correct. He had his own management strategy for his subordinates: to win their hearts with sincerity, to let them know that staying in the Flood Dragon Palace was the best thing for them. Naturally, they would stay wholeheartedly and treat the Flood Dragon Palace with sincerity.
"Alright, do as I say. Just focus on your cultivation and alchemy, and strive to reach Foundation Establishment as soon as possible. That will be enough for you. I won't give you any more pills; you can keep them for yourself. Here are the formulas for Green Sprout Pill, Yellow Sprout Pill, and Jade Sprout Pill. These are pills for the entire Qi Refining stage. Take them and study them. I'll give you twenty portions of each of these materials. Now, you can go."
After saying that, Gu Yuchuan waved his hand, and the other person left. He was also ready to start the simulation to see what would happen next.
[Congratulations, host, on starting the nineteenth simulation. We will now begin drawing talents.]
[Ring ring, ring ring, the alarm clock is ringing, reminding the host to wash their hands before drawing the card.]
He was really busy and forgot to take a bath and burn incense. This wouldn't do. He stood up, washed his hands properly, lit his special sandalwood incense for drawing cards again, and then began to draw cards.
[White Talent: Scale Enhancement; White Talent: Swiftness; Purple Serendipity: Bloodline Advancement.]
He excitedly jumped off his bed, rubbed his eyes, and thought, "I'm not seeing things, am I? This is a bloodline advancement! This means I'm going to become a Viper! My combat power and aptitude will be further improved. What am I waiting for? I'll just select my talent and start the simulation."
[On the first day, while you were cultivating, you had a fortuitous encounter, and your bloodline advanced to that of a mid-grade spirit beast, a viper.]
[The next day, you consumed the Myriad Flower Pill and began your cultivation. With your bloodline advancing, your cultivation speed increased even further, bringing you closer to the third level of Foundation Establishment.]
[On the third day, you began setting up the Linglang Pavilion. You announced that the pavilion would open in ten days, primarily trading spiritual artifacts and top-grade magic weapons. Immediately, the entire outer area of Yunhai Marsh was abuzz with excitement, with many Foundation Establishment cultivators planning to purchase a spiritual artifact.]
On the fourth day, you continued to set up the Linglang Pavilion. You invited the Demon King to set up a level three defensive formation here. From now on, even the Demon King cannot easily destroy the Linglang Pavilion.
On the fifth day, several weapon refiners came together to pressure you to raise the prices of all your spiritual artifacts, insisting that you not sell them at the human market price. They claimed that treasures among the demon race have always been very expensive. However, you refused. You knew that reasonable prices were essential for long-term development. Furthermore, you understood that as the war progressed, the demon race's cultivation techniques needed to improve; raising prices now would be a dead end.
On the sixth day, you continued refining weapons and tidying up the Linglang Pavilion. You vaguely heard that someone was planning to cause trouble on the opening day, but you ignored it.
[On the seventh day, you were assassinated, but thanks to the protection of the level-three formation, you were unharmed. They were injured as well, and you know without a doubt that it was those weapon refiners who were responsible. As weapon refiners, they certainly don't lack wealth; it would be very easy for them to bribe some demon generals.]
On the eighth day, you announced that all the treasures would be priced according to human standards, nearly 30% cheaper than the current protection offered by the demon race. Many demons began to thank you.
[On the ninth day, you continued your weapon forging and cultivation.]
[Day 10...]
On the thirteenth day, Linlang Pavilion finally opened for business. The appearance of the Black Shark Demon King made everyone admire Linlang Pavilion even more, and its business was booming.
On the fourteenth day, you continued selling goods and cultivating at the Linglang Pavilion, and the large amount of wealth made you very happy.
On the fifteenth day, you gave your share of the past few days' earnings to the Black Shark Demon King. The large amount of spirit stones made the Black Shark Demon King's attitude towards you even better. The Black Shark Demon King told you that if you could give him more than ten thousand spirit stones, he would give you a tremendous opportunity that could increase your chances of breaking through to the Golden Core stage. You happily agreed, as this wealth was intended to increase your cultivation.
On the sixteenth day, in hopes of that opportunity, you forged some spiritual artifacts overnight and continued to sell them.
On the seventeenth day, business at Linlang Pavilion remained extremely brisk; you were even a little overwhelmed with the refining work yourself.
[Day 18...]
[On the twenty-third day, you gathered ten thousand spirit stones and handed them over to King Black Shark. King Black Shark said that two months later would be the selection day for the Cloud Sea Swamp Dragon Gate Challenge. Only powerful demon kings have the right to recommend candidates, and only Foundation Establishment stage cultivators can participate, and they must have spirit beast bloodlines. He recommended you to go. This Dragon Gate Challenge is equivalent to the Cloud Sea Swamp's talent show. The opportunities there are boundless. If you are lucky enough to pass the selection and leap over the Dragon Gate, your future path will be very easy.]
On the twenty-fourth day, you refocused on your cultivation, hoping to increase your cultivation and combat power as much as possible before the challenge.
