"Of course, it’s precious."
"If the master knows how Tier Four Elixirs are refined, they would understand how extremely precious they are."
"Each Tier Four Elixir is worth a fortune."
"Even the most ordinary Tier Four Elixirs have main ingredients that are thousand-year-old Spirit Medicines or rare Spiritual Objects. Besides that, the auxiliary materials might also be Spirit Medicines that have existed for hundreds of years, at the very least consisting of a dozen or even several dozen types."
"Only by accumulating such a volume of Spirit Medicine can a furnace of Tier Four Elixir be refined."
"The problem is that such a batch of Spirit Medicine isn’t guaranteed to succeed in refining."
"An ordinary Tier Four Alchemist might need several batches of Spirit Medicine to achieve success."
"This way, the cost of elixirs skyrockets."
"In fact, many cultivators who have promoted to Nascent Soul have barely taken Tier Four Elixirs throughout their lives."
"Most rely on their own hard work to advance their cultivation."
The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace said with great emotion.
In fact, it was because of this that Daoist Wan Hua had such difficulty promoting to Nascent Soul in the past.
Even though he mastered advanced alchemy techniques and was a Tier Four High-grade Alchemist, he had hardly any thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine on him, making it difficult for a clever housewife to cook without rice.
Even when wanting to refine Tier Four Elixirs, it was an impossible task.
Let alone the cultivation resources of the Southern Continent, which already fall short of those in the Black Dragon Sea Region.
As a result, Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Southern Continent find it extremely difficult to progress, almost as if every step is hard-earned.
"That being said, advancing in the Nascent Soul realm is indeed quite challenging."
Jiang Fan nodded.
Honestly, in the Cultivation Realm, Spirit Medicines that have been around for centuries are incredibly rare, let alone thousand-year-old ones.
A Tier Four Spirit Medicine needs to grow for a thousand years to mature; what cultivator can wait that long?
Thus, many cultivators harvest Spirit Medicines before they mature as soon as they see them.
Over time, wild Spirit Medicines naturally become less frequent, and only in the Secret Realm World can they be found.
Why can they be found in the Secret Realm World? Naturally, it’s because it opens once every few hundred years without cultivators entering to ravage, allowing Spirit Medicines inside to grow smoothly.
Otherwise, like the outside world, they would have been harvested clean by human cultivators long ago, making it impossible to become thousand-year-old Spirit Medicines.
Hence, the importance of the Sub-Immortal Artifact Immortal Dew Bottle is evident.
A drop of Immortal Dew can reduce growth time by a hundred years; ten drops can produce a thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine.
If I am to promote to Nascent Soul later, I’ll likely need the Immortal Dew Bottle to cultivate thousand-year-old Spirit Medicines.
Relying solely on external Spirit Medicine resources won’t allow successful cultivation.
"However, with this Tier Four Elixir, my Soaring Snake Technique might be able to break through."
"I can fully promote to the Tier Three Middle Stage Realm."
Jiang Fan’s eyes gleamed; he could feel the benefits of the Python Dragon Vajra Pill to himself.
"Master, where are we heading next, or shall we stay here to cultivate?"
The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace asked curiously.
"No, let’s return to the Zhu Family Island."
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan smiled slightly, making a decision.
After all, the recruitment of the Divinity Transformation Zhao Family should be nearly over, and returning to the Zhu Family now will likely pose no issues. Moreover, the Fortune-Telling Talisman has not indicated any dangers.
This proves that returning to Zhu Family Island for cultivation is quite the right decision.
Furthermore, Zhu Family Island possesses Tier Three Top-Grade Spirit Veins, which I cannot give up.
This is already considered a decent Cultivation Blessed Land for Golden Core Cultivators.
