Chapter 1717 Taoist Master Bai Gu, Fairy Qing Ning

Tianshuang City, Kunling Chamber of Commerce.

An old man with white hair and unusually prominent cheekbones was looking at a female cultivator who exuded a faint chill.

For some reason, the old man suddenly sighed.

"Fairy Ningshuang, we still have no clues about the person we are looking for?"

The old man looked very solemn when he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Ningshuang also smiled bitterly.

"Master Bai Gu, our Kunling Chamber of Commerce has offered the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew, a natural treasure, to find Taoist friends who meet the requirements. But so far, no one has been able to pass our test."

Taoist Master Bai Gu frowned.

After a long silence, Taoist Bai Gu sighed.

"Fairy Ningshuang, you know very well how important our mission is this time. This is an order from the leader of the Demonic Gu Sect. If we fail to complete the mission and provoke the wrath of that senior in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"We, the Kunling Chamber of Commerce, must pay close attention to this matter."

When Taoist Master Bai Gu said this, he couldn't help but look scared.

Even now, he is already a powerful man in the late Mahayana and Great Perfection realm.

But when mentioning the leader of the Demonic Gu Sect, one also feels terrified.

Fairy Qingning standing by was even more horrified.

The expression on her pretty face changed several times.

"Master Bai Gu, rest assured. I have already spread the news that our Kunling Chamber of Commerce has the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew."

"I'm afraid it won't be long before many immortal cultivators come to visit us in person."

"When the time comes, we will need you, Taoist Bai Gu, to have a keen eye for talent."

Taoist Master Bai Gu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Fairy. As an elder of the Kunling Chamber of Commerce, I naturally know the importance of this mission."

"If our Kunling Chamber of Commerce messes up this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to gain a foothold in Changkong Continent."

"This time, I will definitely do my best to help you."

Upon hearing this, Fairy Qingning was immediately overjoyed.

"Thank you, Taoist Bai Gu."

Fairy Qingning expressed her thanks.

After a moment, no one knew what she had thought of, and she said immediately: "The level of alchemists in our Changkong Continent is not very good. In recent years, I have visited many famous alchemists in order to complete this task. But most of these people are just in name only."

"Many of them find it very difficult to refine the tenth-grade elixir. Not to mention asking them to assist in refining the lower-grade heaven-level elixir."

"Well, fortunately, we have spent a lot of money over the years and hired several alchemists with relatively good alchemy skills."

"By then, if the Demonic Gu Sect is pressing hard, we can only ask those fellow Taoists to help us deal with it."

Taoist Master Bai Gu nodded in agreement.

"This is also a helpless move. However, we should not do this unless it is absolutely necessary. After all, those alchemists are dead, but if we offend the leader of the Demonic Gu Sect because of this, it will be a loss."

Upon hearing this, Fairy Qingning nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a ball of flame suddenly appeared out of nowhere and hovered quietly in front of Fairy Qingning.

Fairy Qingning did not hesitate at all.

With a flick of his finger in the air, the fireball shattered.

A sound transmission note also appeared out of thin air.

Soon, the excited voice of a female cultivator rang out from the sound transmission talisman.

"Fairy, a senior came to our Kunling Chamber of Commerce to inquire about the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew. I cannot make the decision, so please consider it."

Fairy Qingning looked very happy.

Her beautiful eyes also turned towards Taoist Bai Gu.

"Master Bai Gu, this..."

"Let's meet this Taoist friend. If he meets the requirements, he can help us a lot. If not, it won't waste too much time." Taoist Bai Gu said.

"What Taoist Master Bai Gu said is true. If that is the case, I will have someone invite this Taoist friend over right away."

As Fairy Qingning spoke, she took out a sound transmission talisman, said a few words, and then activated it casually.

About half a cup of tea later, a beautiful female cultivator, accompanied by a young man, appeared in the secret room where Taoist Master Bai Gu and Fairy Qing Ning were.

This young man was none other than Chen Xuan, who came to Kunling Chamber of Commerce to inquire about the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew.

"Hongcui, please go down. Let me personally talk to this Taoist friend!"

Fairy Qingning's eyes swept over Chen Xuan.

Seeing that Chen Xuan's cultivation level was only at the initial stage of fusion, he frowned slightly.

The beautiful female cultivator who brought Chen Xuan here agreed and quickly said goodbye and left.

Chen Xuan naturally saw all of this.

But he didn't speak directly.

His eyes swept over Fairy Qingning and Taoist Baigu.

Seeing that the two were only late Mahayana cultivators, he felt a little confused.

However, Taoist Master Bai Gu, who was standing beside him, looked at Chen Xuan and said with a smile: "May I ask your name, fellow Taoist?"

"My surname is Chen."

"Oh? It's Daoist Chen. I'm Daoist Master Bai Gu, one of the Mahayana elders of Kunling Chamber of Commerce. This fairy is Fairy Qing Ning, also a Mahayana elder of Kunling Chamber of Commerce."

"Hello, both of you!"

Chen Xuan smiled and bowed.

He was not overly respectful to the two of them just because his cultivation level was only at the initial stage of fusion.

This made Fairy Qingning look a little dissatisfied.

But the current situation is very special.

Fairy Bingning was also afraid of offending Chen Xuan, so naturally she didn't dare to get angry.

Everything can only be left to Taoist Master Bai Gu to deal with.

"My two fellow Daoists, I came here this time just to inquire about the matter of the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew. I have a very important person who is planning to break through the Tribulation Stage soon. If I can get the help of the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew, it can also increase the success rate of breaking through the Tribulation Stage."

Chen Xuan had a smile on his face, neither humble nor arrogant.

Taoist Master Bai Gu looked calm, but he was sneering in his heart.

"He is only in the early stage of fusion, yet he dares to covet the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew? This person is quite ambitious. But it doesn't matter. As long as he can refine a lower-grade Heaven-level elixir, the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew can be given to him."

Thinking of this, Taoist Bai Gu looked at Fairy Qing Ning who was standing beside him.

He gave Fairy Qingning a hidden look.

Fairy Qingning immediately understood.

Without waiting for Taoist Master Bai Gu to speak, she said directly: "Daoyou, although you are in the early stage of fusion, you should also know that things like ice crystal spirit dew are not ordinary natural treasures."

"If you are planning to trade for the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew, I advise you not to have such a beautiful dream."

"We in Kunling Chamber of Commerce do have Ice Crystal Spirit Dew, but it is not for trading and can only be given as gifts."

When Chen Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but look surprised.

He was naturally very aware of the rarity of the Ice Crystal Dew.

But if this kind of natural treasure is only used as a gift, it would be a real luxury.

Or, even if it is given as a gift, it will require others to pay a huge price.

As Chen Xuan was a powerful warrior in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, this kind of trick could naturally not be hidden from him.

But Chen Xuan didn't intend to give up.

"Oh? If so, may I ask, Fairy, how can I obtain the Ice Crystal Dew?" Chen Xuan said.

Fairy Qingning smiled coldly.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I'm not questioning your strength, but it's really difficult for a cultivator like you who is in the early stage of fusion to obtain the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew."

When Chen Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but look surprised.

But he was not angry.

Still looking calm.

"Fairy, please explain it more clearly. If you really cannot meet the requirements, I will not force you!"

"Haha, if you want to get the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew from our Kunling Chamber of Commerce, you must first become an alchemist. Secondly, you need to refine a lower-grade heavenly elixir. Do you have the confidence?"

"This... your requirements are indeed a bit high."

"Fellow Daoist Chen, if you don't meet the requirements, just say so."

"Haha, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Fairy. I have also refined this low-grade Heaven-level elixir before. Although, the success rate is only 20% to 30%!"

"what?"

Fairy Qingning looked surprised.

The lower-grade heavenly elixir is not an ordinary elixir.

Even a tenth-grade elixir cannot compare with a lower-grade heavenly elixir.

Not only can Chen Xuan refine lower-grade heavenly elixirs, but the success rate of refining lower-grade heavenly elixirs has reached 20%.

This also means that every time Chen Xuan refines a furnace of pills, two or three of them are of the lower grade of the heavenly level.

The success rate of this kind of lower-grade heavenly pill is already extremely high.

No wonder Fairy Qingning looked in disbelief when she looked at Chen Xuan at this moment.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, are you...are you sure you can refine a lower-grade Heaven-level elixir?"

Fairy Qingning looked ecstatic.

If Chen Xuan could really refine a lower-grade heavenly elixir, then they would have an explanation to the leader of the Demonic Gu Sect.

"Haha, don't worry, fairy. As long as you can take out the ice crystal spirit dew, I can definitely refine a lower-grade heavenly elixir." Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Now, Fairy Bingning and Taoist Bai Gu both looked overjoyed.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, if possible, can you let us personally test your alchemy skills? After all, this matter is of great importance!"

"Yes, the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew is not an ordinary thing. If you want to get it, you must have real strength."

Chen Xuan had no objection to this proposal.

"No problem. I need an alchemy room. Also, no one can watch me while I am refining the alchemy."

"Finally, the recipes and spiritual medicines for alchemy must be provided by your Kunling Chamber of Commerce. As for the refined elixirs, if your Kunling Chamber of Commerce wants them, you will also need to pay me."

Chen Xuan looked indifferent.

His calm expression made Fairy Bingning and Taoist Bai Gu even more delighted.

"It seems that this fellow Daoist Chen is quite capable. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so confident facing our two late Mahayana masters."

"Isn't it? His conditions are not excessive. We just agree to them."

After Taoist Bai Gu and Fairy Qing Ning discussed secretly for a while, Taoist Bai Gu finally came forward.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, our Kunling Chamber of Commerce has agreed to your terms."

As he spoke, Taoist Bai Gu flipped his hand, took out a storage bag and handed it to Chen Xuan.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I happen to have the spiritual medicine and recipe for refining Kunling Pills. There are five spiritual medicines in total. If you can refine a lower-grade Kunling Pill, you will pass the test."

"As for the ice crystal dew you need, we will also give it to you for your review."

"Of course, as to whether you can obtain the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew, it depends on whether you can agree to our conditions."

Chen Xuan nodded.

He took the storage bag and checked it carefully to make sure there was no problem. Then he smiled and said, "Please find me a secret alchemy room."

Taoist Master Bai Gu and Fairy Qing Ning nodded.

The two of them brought Chen Xuan to the alchemy secret room of Kunling Chamber of Commerce.

Chen Xuan looked around carefully for a while, and after making sure that no one had tampered with the secret room, he waved his hand and directly activated the protective formation in the secret room.

The next moment, Chen Xuan took out the recipe of Kunling Pill and studied it carefully.

A day later, after Chen Xuan had thoroughly understood the recipe of Kunling Pill, he smiled slightly.

“This Kunling Pill is actually a kind of elixir used to heal the wounds of cultivators in the early stages of tribulation.”

"Haha, the Kunling Chamber of Commerce really likes to take advantage!"

Taoist Master Bai Gu asked Chen Xuan to refine the Kun Ling Pill, which seemed to be a test.

In fact, it is also a gamble.

If Chen Xuan could really refine a lower-grade heavenly elixir, according to the rules of the immortal cultivation world, Kunling Chamber of Commerce would be qualified to purchase the elixir refined by Chen Xuan at cost price.

To put it another way, even if Chen Xuan was unable to refine the Kunling Pill, the Kunling Chamber of Commerce would only lose a few spiritual medicines needed to refine the Kunling Pill.

The loss was not too great.

But compared with the gains Chen Xuan gained from refining the Kunling Pill, this loss is simply not worth mentioning.

No wonder Chen Xuan said that.

Of course, Chen Xuan’s target is not the Kunling Pill, but the Ice Crystal Spirit Dew.

After a while, after Chen Xuan had selected all the spiritual herbs for refining the Kunling Pill, he activated the Xuantian Ding to start refining the pill.
