Chapter 1128: Chapter 1128: Business is Hard to Do_1

Peter Brown arrived at the place where elixirs were being sold and found that it was the liveliest place with all kinds of elixirs available, and even the good ones were not expensively priced.

"This is the elixir that helps Immortal Bodies cultivate to the Immortal Realm, why is it so cheap?"

When Peter saw an elixir called Immortal Power Elixir, he struggled to keep his composure. This elixir was no weaker than the medicinal liquid he possessed, yet it cost only fifty immortal crystals per pill.

"Peter, you must be new here. In our Immortal Sect, everyone knows that selling refined medicine is a business, so, many start learning this knowledge. Naturally, the refinement of such introductory elixirs has become common," said a senior.

Peter’s face turned sour. He had originally thought of making money with his medicinal liquids, but now it seemed impossible to make a fortune that way. However, after learning about the situation, he felt that selling a bottle of his medicinal liquid for thirty immortal crystals was still viable and could earn him some money.

Of course, this place was different from the Mortal Realm; the equipment used couldn’t be of mortal make but had to be specially crafted by someone.

"Emma, is there someone here who can craft custom equipment for me?"

"Of course, as long as you’re willing to pay, you can find any sort of person here. You must know, we have several million disciples," Emma replied.

Looking towards Aurora Taylor, an idea struck Peter; the woman was so familiar with the ways of this place that if he could get her to help sell his medicinal liquids, it would save him quite a bit of trouble.

However, considering his own lack of strength, Peter thought that he really needed to consider the matter carefully, as a lack of attention could lead to unwanted attention from others, which could pose serious problems.

After getting Aurora’s contact information, Peter gave her ten immortal crystals and headed back to his residence.

Sitting cross-legged on the straw mat, Peter looked around the house filled with cooking utensils and sighed heavily, realizing that the Immortal Sect was not an easy place to survive in.

Today, he had paid for a month’s exemption from chores in one fell swoop, instantly spending three thousand immortal crystals. Now with nearly two thousand more spent on these items and the rent for a month’s accommodation, a total of six thousand immortal crystals were gone. Peter believed that if there wasn’t a way to make money, he’d run through his resources in several months.

Looking at the Sect rules, there was indeed one stating that Sect Disciples shall not cunningly appropriate the property of other disciples.

For now, he pushed those concerns aside. In order to progress, even if it meant revealing his ability to concoct medicine, it didn’t matter!

After thinking for a while, Peter got up and went out again. This time, he headed directly to the residence provided by Aurora, which belonged to a senior disciple from the Immortal Realm.

"Is Senior Sean Snow residing here?"

Peter saw a courtyard and knocked on the door while loudly asking.

"Who is it?" At that moment, a burly man strode out from inside.

Peter really couldn’t tell what cultivation level the man was at; at first glance, he did not look like someone who practiced artifact refinement.

"Aurora Taylor recommended me," Peter said.

Upon hearing Aurora’s name, a smile finally appeared on the burly man’s face. He said to Peter, "What do you need to have refined? My rates have always been fair."

As Peter entered, he saw the place was filled with various artifacts for refining that he couldn’t even understand.

"I’d like to have equipment for refining medicine crafted, similar to that from the Mortal Realm. I wonder if you could make it?"

"I thought I was going to refine some incredible item, but the most difficult part is usually just setting the time and fire power, which is easy for me. Just tell me the size and proportion you need for the items you want to refine."

Peter explained the equipment, which could refine twenty or thirty bottles of elixir at one time.

After contemplating for a moment, Sean Snow said, "Alright, I’ll start refining for you immediately. It’s three thousand immortal crystals, pay me now."

Although it was painful, Peter quickly paid the money.

Having received the money, Sean Snow’s face showed an even bigger smile as he said, "Come and pick it up the day after tomorrow."

After leaving Sean Snow’s place, Peter calculated his immortal crystals and felt that he might really need to take on some tasks. If he didn’t start doing tasks, he probably wouldn’t last several months.

After carefully cleaning the cooking utensils he had bought, Peter also placed the storage cabinet inside the house and took out some food to cook some dishes.

Now unable to grow their own Immortal Valley, Peter could only use the purchased immortal-grain, which provided sufficient energy when consumed.

After eating, Peter boiled a pot of Bone and Muscle Soup and naturally poured it into the bathtub he had bought to soak in.

While soaking, Peter was also deducing his cultivation technique. Lately, he had been working on the fusion of the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Technique from the Dark Mist Art and was now nearing the final stage.

As time trickled by, Peter’s cultivation was advancing towards the Spiritual Realm.

After Immortal Power comes Lingdong, and once reaching Lingdong, one can release Inner Qi. When that happens, the power of combat will double in strength, and he would be able to undertake outdoor tasks.

A rule of the sect states that Chore Disciples can only take outdoor tasks once they’ve reached the Spiritual Realm; otherwise, they could only help the wealthy and powerful within the sect with various menial tasks.

To advance from the Immortal Realm to the Spiritual Realm, Peter estimated that at least one thousand pots of Bone and Muscle Soup would be needed for soaking.

Right, if he propelled the process with the first level of the Foundation Establishment Technique, he could cut the time in half. If he used the second level, he could halve it again, hence the strength of the cultivation technique is an essential factor for cultivation progress.

Success!

Two hours later, Peter finally merged the first layer of the Foundation Establishment Technique with his own Energy Absorption Technique.

With completion of this fusion, when Peter operated the Energy Absorption Technique, he clearly felt that his absorption of the elixir had increased by more than double.

Watching the rapid completion of the elixir’s energy absorption, Peter looked into his Elixir Sea and saw that it had accumulated a lot more energy.

Peter wasn’t sure what to call the energy inside him. If he called it Immortal power, his own energy clearly didn’t measure up, but it wasn’t right to say it wasn’t Immortal power since he knew he truly possessed an Immortal Body and was absorbing Immortal power.

No matter, Peter decided to refer to the postnatal cultivation from now on as Spiritual energy absorption, while the innate cultivation from the Immortal Realm onward would be called Immortal energy.

Just as he had finished cultivating, Maddy Wright came over.

Upon seeing Peter, he said loudly, "Let’s go, I’m treating everyone to a meal today." Not allowing Peter to refuse, he pulled Peter along and left.
