With that, as the Peak Leader of Dan Sword Peak, he forcibly averted his gaze and left the Li Huo Palace.

He had only come to check on Luo Qifang's cleaning, intending to give him some special instruction over the next few years by explaining some alchemy in detail.

He hadn't expected to witness this scene. The more he thought about Wang Mu not joining his Dan Sword Peak, the more uncomfortable he felt... He decided to stop looking altogether...

Wang Mu reflected on his recent experience of using Action Points to perform alchemy.

Indeed, it was quite subtle.

Cultivation: Alchemy (3)

After refining two furnaces of Qi Condensing Pills, his Skill level had directly risen to 3.

It didn't seem to be very difficult. As a beginner, alchemy felt quite simple. However, considering everything in the Li Huo Palace was ready-made, it indeed wasn't difficult... If he were outside the Li Huo Palace, he'd have to find his own Pill Furnace, cast flame Spells himself, gather herbs, and then concoct the pills. The whole process would be much more complicated.

Luo Qifang, standing nearby, stared blankly, a look of existential doubt etched on his face.

"Brother Wang, I never expected you to have such a high talent for alchemy..." Luo Qifang quickly composed himself and sighed. "It's a real shame you didn't join Dan Sword Peak. If Master knew about your talent, he might have made an exception and taken you as a Direct Disciple."

What high talent? It was all thanks to Action Points.

"Unlike me..." Luo Qifang shook his head helplessly. "I've never even successfully refined a normal batch of Qi Condensing Pills. This time, the furnace even exploded. My luck is abysmal! I fear I have no destiny with the Alchemy Dao in this lifetime."

Wang Mu fell silent for a moment, realizing this was the second trigger choice for the Travel event.

He patted Luo Qifang on the shoulder and said,

"Brother Luo, I might have a way."

Luo Qifang was stunned. "What way do you mean?"

"Well, I'm quite good at Fishing. I once caught a small golden fish with Yin Yang eyes in a certain place." Wang Mu took out the fish he had caught during his first trip to Linglong Love Abyss. "Eating this fish might slightly enhance your Qi Fortune. I can't guarantee it will improve your luck in this specific area, but it might bring about some change..."

Aside from the Divine Fish, Wang Mu had caught five other fish during his first visit to Linglong Love Abyss. This was the only one of its kind among them, and he had kept it all along. This was mainly because Wang Mu felt his own Qi Fortune didn't seem to need boosting, as his Travel ability could directly trigger various fortuitous encounters. Besides, Wang Mu felt his own Qi Fortune was already quite good. The boost from eating this fish would be limited and wouldn't have a significant impact on him.

Upon seeing this small golden fish, Luo Qifang's eyes widened in shock:

"Th-this... this is the Fortune Heart Goldfish! A legendary fish said to bless one's spirit and enhance personal Qi Fortune upon consumption!"

Damn it! Why is it that I, who fish all the time, don't know the names of these fish, yet all of you seem to?

Wang Mu was startled. The Fortune Heart Goldfish.

"There are very few treasures in this world that can improve one's personal Qi Fortune..." Luo Qifang stared at the fish. "I never expected you to possess such a Supreme Treasure, Brother Wang... Y-you're really going to give it to me? Why don't you consume it yourself?"

Wang Mu thought for a moment, then pointed to the two furnaces full of Qi Condensing Pills and said,

"Look at my Qi Fortune. Is there even room for improvement?"

Luo Qifang was speechless.

That stung.

This was Wang Mu's first attempt at Alchemy, and he was far from a level where his skills could influence the quality of the pills. Yet, his very first furnace yielded Top-grade Qi Condensing Pills.

That luck was simply outrageous!

Actually, if there were more of these Fortune Heart Goldfish, Wang Mu wouldn't mind maxing out his Qi Fortune all at once. Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, after all. Unfortunately, these things were rare. Linglong Love Abyss was now closed too, and without such a special Fishing spot, catching more of these fish would be very difficult.

"Brother Wang, this gift you're giving is too valuable..." Luo Qifang said solemnly, "I really don't know how I could ever repay you..."

As he spoke, Luo Qifang seemed to be weighing his words carefully, then he said in a deep voice:

"Brother Wang, I have an Elixir Recipe."

"An Elixir Recipe?" Wang Mu was taken aback.

Luo Qifang whispered,

"Are you aware that we Cultivators have various methods to achieve Foundation Establishment?"

Wang Mu had indeed heard of this. Foundation Establishment was about laying the foundation for the Immortal Path.

"Human Foundation Establishment allows one to attain one or two Immortal Fates at most, with Golden Core or Nascent Soul being the ultimate limit."

"Earth Foundation Establishment is vast and mighty, bestowing profound Qi Fortune, allowing one to glimpse the Divinity Transformation Tribulation."

"Heavenly Foundation Establishment is favored by the heavens themselves. It purifies the Spirit Root, activates latent potential, and can grant the highest Innate Divine Power, enabling one to truly achieve Ascension and tread the Immortal Path!"

Luo Qifang's expression turned solemn. "This Elixir Recipe I have is for the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment Pill. It can produce a pill that, if consumed during Foundation Establishment, is said to grant a second Innate Divine Power and significantly increase the chances of success! It also helps resist the Heart Demon Illusions encountered during Heavenly Dao Foundation Building!"

"Is it that powerful?" Wang Mu was astonished.

"Yes..." Luo Qifang suddenly looked a bit awkward. "However, this Foundation Establishment Pill can only be used for Heavenly Foundation Establishment... and achieving Heavenly Foundation Establishment is incredibly difficult. One of the requirements for our Sword Sect's Heavenly Dao Foundation Building, it is said, is to cultivate the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Technique to its highest realm—the Eighteenth Layer."

"From ancient times until now, it's said that only Elder Yan, with his astonishing brilliance, has ever achieved it..."

"Otherwise, this Elixir Recipe is essentially useless."

"How incredibly difficult is it to reach the Eighteenth Layer of the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Technique?" Luo Qifang lamented. "Normally, one can attempt Foundation Establishment upon reaching the Ninth Layer Realm of the technique... and that's just one of the prerequisites. With talent like ours, merely glimpsing Earth Foundation Establishment would already be a stroke of immense fortune."

In essence, while the Elixir Recipe was truly extraordinary, it was a pity that most people couldn't use it, rendering it almost worthless to them. However, in terms of intrinsic value, it was naturally extremely high.

"So, Brother Wang, this Elixir Recipe..." Luo Qifang coughed.
