Chapter 679


    (Unedited)


    …


    Alchemical products like pills, acid, poison, potions, and etc. are essential in the immortalnd. The main cities would send batches of alchemical products to the towns or would sometimes send high-level alchemist to help a town.


    But these batches of chemical products are little in number and very limited. It is not enough for the consumption of one single town. This is one of the reasons why the ns would choose strictly their servants. They would only ept those with talent and need not to spend more on one single servant what they could spend on two.


    And if they hire an alchemist, even those low-level ones, the town lords would spend too much of their resources that it is almost not worth it. Only those who truly favor their family members would do such a thing.


    This is the reason why alchemist is very important to each town in the immortalnd.


    As of this moment, a group of white robe people are currently watching a young manbining and refining the materials in making the most basic pill, the energy establishment pill.


    Shin Jiao was given a recipe for the pill and was asked to refine it. Although the rest of the people could somewhat read the recipe, yet without prior knowledge in refining pills, they are unable to make even a single pill.


    Many have tried and wasted many ingredients and those who seed would not linger in towns but would travel to the big cities and try to be apprentice alchemists to the masters.


    And so right now, they are looking already nning to keep this young man as they are awed with the process of his refining.


    As Shin Jiao continue refining the pills, he was able to sessfully prepare the ingredients. Then he began mixing them in the cauldron manually. He did not want to show these people that he already gained the understanding and is able to absorb the universe''s energy.


    Since he could contain the energy inside his sphere they are unable to see the aura of those energies, hence keeping his cultivation level a secret. Of course, if he uses the energy they would be able to see his power level which is already at the 70th sphere.


    Not longter, the room was suddenly filled with the aroma of finished pills. As Shin Jiao open the lid of the cauldron ten golden pills could be seen lying inside of it.


    Everyone was amazed at how he was able to manually concoct this many pills. It is known that only those who could control the domain could do such a thing in the immortalnd. Usually, alchemists could only make one or two pills every try.


    Seeing the ten golden pills, the jaws of the white-gowned lords almost dropped to the ground.


    Suddenly their eyes went wide and greed could be seen in them.


    With this many pills on hand, they would be able to take in more servants. Plus they might even be able to convert a whole vige into servants at one time.


    This prospect truly excites everyone.


    Suddenly, they notice the figure of Shin Jiao staggering as he suddenly runs towards the ingredients and suddenly picks up a mushroom and then devour it like crazy.


    They were all stunned as he ate one mushroom after another.


    Then they realized something, the young peasant has consumed a lot of his natural universe energy as his dantian is unable to absorb the universe energy yet.


    After eating, Shin Jiao slump on a chair, and then weakly rested.


    "I guess with only a low-level pill, his energy is already not enough…" Aiya Wine said with a frown.


    With a signal from her, the rest of the n lords formed a circle.


    "We should let him train some alchemist. If he is alone then we could not expect a good result. If he could train many low-level alchemists, then we might have a bounty in our hands."


    "Wait a minute, what if those he trained would be smug enough and just like in the past would leave the town. What should we do then?"


    "You''re right… This is not a feasible idea."


    Everyone was thinking deeply on this thing as they didn''t want to give up the prospect of having a peasant as an alchemist and then training more. The more silver armored protectors they have the prosperous their n would be. And the key to that is this young peasant.


    "What about you let them sign a universal binding contract for a limited number of years." Suddenly Shin Jiao''s voice sounded from where he is seated.


    When the rest heard this they all showed a confused look on their faces. They know about contracts, but no one would dare do that in the immortalnd. This is because contracts are considered sacred yet dangerous in this ce and would usually affect their growth.


    "That is a bit troublesome, Shin. As you can see contracts are…" Jian Jo Long tried to exin but Jinga Vin raised his hand to stop him from talking.


    "Let him finish…"


    Then Shin Jiao weakly walked towards the group and then sat on another chair near them.


    "You guys know about paper contracts, right?"


    Everyone nodded.


    "Then state in the contract a limited time and then a strict condition. Of course, the prize is their freedom. But if your offer is good enough, I''m guessing that no alchemist would dare leave the town." Shin Jiao exined.


    "Haha… Alchemists are too greedy. Even in big cities, they are prideful and haughty." A n lord said with a sneer.


    "Well, that''s a given. But imagine if this town would be well known… imagine if this town is the town well-known for producing low-level alchemists and with the highest number of servants… how wonderful that would be?" Shin Jiao suddenly showed a crafty smile on this handsome face.


    Everyone looks at each other.


    "Low-level alchemy pill that could be produced by batches…" Shin Jiao added.


    The minds and imagination of every n lord in the room were immediately ignited. The ambition they had that died when they were assigned to this wastnd was suddenly revived.


    "What do you need?" the almost unison reply of everyone in the room made Shin Jiao want to loudlyugh evilly.


    …


    After reading the books, which could be considered as a journal of the immortal living in that immortal cave. Shin Jiao is able to understand a bit about what is happening in the immortalnd. He knew that he would be staying in this ce for a while until he reaches the Saint realm. In which he would be able to get out of the and go through the stars if he chooses to, or follow another guide towards the so-called battleground of the gods.


    But before that happens, he needs to pave a way for his family and friends if ever they arrive in this world.


    A month has passed since then…


    Shin Jiao opens his eyes and looks at the time on the table. He did not linger and immediately jumps up from the meditation mat. After a night of meditation, he is able to absorb enough energy to fill the spheres in dantian.


    He has already stabilized his strength at the 70th sphere and is already starting to form the 71st. But it was not that easy. The golden pills are not that effective to him and he knew that he needed a higher pill so that he could be able to increase his cultivation speed and energy absorption.


    But for now, he needs to go to work.


    When Shin Jiao walks out of the small house, he saw a lot of people on the street.


    "Hey, Mr. Shin! Good morning!"


    "Mr. Shin! Good morning! We have nice weather today…"


    "Mr. Shin, here are some fruits we found yesterday on our hunting trip."


    These are the greetings Shin Jiao has already gotten used to. In just a mere month he came from being a rogue peasant into a well-respected person in the Vitol town. And many of these immortals were once a peasant who has received the needed pill to help them seed and became servants.


    As Shin Jiao walks down the street and before he could arrive in the tall five-story building, he is already carrying a lot of gifts from those people. Although it didn''t happen every day, every once in a while this is the scenario of his morning.


    When he reached the hall, he suddenly saw Aiya Wine and of course, the ever-present Jinga Vin beside her who always have that strict aura around him.


    "Hey, Shin, Good morning!… You seem to be getting another round of gifts today… Hihihi…" Aiya Wine greeted with a chuckle.


    Shin Jiao did not want to show them his space ring, so he manually carried everything in his hand.


    "Ah, n lord Wine, n lord Vin… this lowly one greets the two lords."


    "Fame is a pain… would you agree…" Jinga Vin said with a smirk.


    "Yes… But I will have to share with the two of you this pain." Shin Jiao suddenly said as he handed them the gift in both of his hands.


    "I''mte my lords, I still have to teach… thank you for lighting my burdens…" Shin Jiao suddenly shouted while running after giving the two the gifts.


    They just showed a faint and helpless expression on their faces. Although they didn''t want to take those, they could not deny that those things sometimes contain helpful stuff. Hence they just epted it.


    Of course, Shin Jiao has already taken what he needed from those piles of gifts.


    As he reaches a particr room, Shin Jiao stopped and heaves a sigh to rx. He knew that this is one of the ways that he could prepare the path for his friends in this world. And he knew that with the help of the local n lords, he might be able to establish a name for himself in thisnd.


    Upon getting to know the n lords, he found that they are actually not that bad. It''s just that they have just suffered some kind of bad luck that they are driven in this ce they called wastnd.


    However, for Shin Jiao, this ce is not a wastnd, but a starting point, a ce for him to build his paradise.


    As he carefully held the door handle of the room. A faint smile appears on his face.


    "Ahh… Let''s have another wonderful day…"
