I want 70%, Zheng Jingshan said without hesitation. I'll prepare the materials for you. You only need to be in charge of refining pills. Moreover, I have to hand over at least half of the profits to Senior Sister Li, so it has to be 70%, no less

No problem! Pei Ling agreed without much thought.

After all, his main goal in finding Zheng Jingshan was not to earn spirit stones, but to find a backer.

Zheng Jingshan's price was very high. After deducting the cost of the herbs, even if he did not consider the price increase in the future, he could earn 21 inferior-grade Spirit Stones with one Bone Tempering Pill. Based on his timeline, he would be able to meet the fine payment deadline.

To a person like Zheng Jingshan who lived in seclusion Alright, he might not want Pei Ling, but he still wanted to save him. In short, stability was the most important.

Elder Qiu wants the Bone Tempering Pills today. How much have you refined during this period? Zheng Jingshan nodded slightly and asked.

Pei Ling felt awkward when he heard this. He took out the 10 newly refined Bone Tempering Pills and braced himself. Senior Brother Zheng, I just came out of the Gu Abyss and am not in a good state, so I only refined these.

Zheng Jingshan frowned. Only 10?

Does this mean that Junior Brother Pei has only refined one furnace after so long?

He was not satisfied and casually poured out the pills to check the quality. Just as he was about to lecture Pei Ling, his pupils constricted when his gaze landed on the 10 Bone Tempering Pills. This? This!

Supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pills!?

Zheng Jingshan suspected that he had seen wrongly.

He forced himself to calm down and raised one of the pills in front of him to identify it carefully.

The color was pure, so pure that it had already deviated from the original grayish-white color of the Bone Tempering Pill and appeared milky white.

It was crystal clear and looked like glass.

There was also an indescribable lightness and purity.

In particular, the azure patterns on the surface of the pill seemed to be shackles that locked the treasure inside.

Even if he put it under his nose, there was no smell of medicine, let alone pill fragrance.

This was definitely a supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill!

Zheng Jingshan's hands trembled slightly, but he did not dare to relax. He even took out a dagger and gently scraped off some powder.

Almost instantly, an incomparably domineering pill fragrance filled the room.

Junior Brother Pei, you're really a genius! Zheng Jingshan did not hesitate to form two hand seals. Seeing that the Bone Tempering Pill in his hand did not change, his originally calm face was flushed. He looked up excitedly and said, You actually refined a supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill!

A supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill!?

Pei Ling's heart skipped a beat. He had used the system to refine pills and did not know much about pills. At this moment, when he heard Zheng Jingshan's tone, he could not help but take the opportunity to ask, Senior Brother, then I wonder how this supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill compares to the superior-grade Bone Tempering Pills I refined previously?

How can a supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill be compared to a superior-grade one? Zheng Jingshan said without hesitation.

He was extremely excited. Although the supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill was only a step above the superior-grade Bone Tempering Pill, the two were as different as heaven and earth.

There was no pill fragrance because the medicinal properties were completely locked in the pill and did not leak out at all.

It was not only the Bone Tempering Pill. All supreme-grade pills were the same.

When the impurities in the medicinal properties were not completely removed and the refinement process did not balance the properties of the various herbs, the pills that were produced had a strange smell and were all inferior-grade. When the handling of the materials was proficient and the refinement conformed with the standards, the pills produced had a pure medicinal fragrance and were middle-grade. When the medicinal properties were refined and stimulated extremely well, the pills produced had rich medicinal fragrance and were superior-grade.

As for the supreme-grade pill, it was produced at its natural state without a trace of smell.

This meant that the medicinal properties were pure and flawless, and the alchemy skills were at the peak of perfection. All the medicinal effects were condensed into this pill, and it could be said to be perfect.

Supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill!

And there were 10!

Zheng Jingshan slowly exhaled and looked at Pei Ling solemnly.

He thought to himself, Even if an alchemy master in the sect can guarantee stability when refining superior-grade Bone Tempering Pills, refining supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pills is very rare.

After all, the entire process has to be perfect. There can't be any mistakes.

Any small mistake will cause the quality of the pills to drop How discerning is Senior Sister to be able to tell that Pei Ling stands out from the many mediocre people in Deer Spring City!

Seeing that Zheng Jingshan was silent, Pei Ling waited for a while and could not help but ask, How many spirit stones can it be sold for?

Supreme-grade pills can only be chanced upon by luck, Zheng Jingshan said generously. If the Bone Forging Art can be combined with a supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill, the possibility of cultivating supreme-grade iron bones, supreme-grade essence bones, and supreme-grade jade bones will greatly increase. This is of extraordinary significance to those cultivation families with deep foundations. In order to perfect the foundation of their disciples, they are willing to pay any price!

If I sell it to Elder Qiu for 500 inferior-grade Spirit Stones each, he probably won't even blink. However, this is a supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill. It's not worth selling it for 500 Spirit Stones!

I'm going to the market outside the sect to have it appraised and auctioned.

Only then will it not be an insult to the supreme-grade Bone Tempering Pill!

Just as he said this, a disciple outside the courtyard asked to see him. Zheng Jingshan frowned slightly and stopped talking. He opened the array formation and a male cultivator came in to report anxiously, Branch Master, a senior sister from the Stone Realm Faction has come to visit.

I understand. Zheng Jingshan's expression turned cold when he heard this. He said, Tell her that I've just finished cultivating and will be there soon.

Immediately after, he got Pei Ling to say, Go back to the outer sect immediately and look for me in a month.

Pei Ling was shocked. Senior Brother, why?

Your Cold Marrow Fire was originally designated by the Stone Realm Branch Master to cleanse his cousin's foundation, Zheng Jingshan said. However, I used my senior sister's name to accept the mission first. The Stone Realm Faction must have just received the news and came to question me. In other words, the other party is not here for me but for you.

Holy sh*t!

Pei Ling was completely speechless. It was fine if the resources 'gifted' by the system were unlimited, but why was Senior Brother Zheng's nurturing so toxic?

He quickly said, But Miao Chengyang still has

I will bear the burden of this matter for you. However, this way, there will be a fierce battle. Zheng Jingshan interrupted him. Your cultivation level is too low. Staying in the inner sect will distract me, so you should leave as soon as possible.

He continued, As for Miao Chengyang, since Miss Jiao Ni has already taken action, this must be Senior Sister's idea. Regardless of whether Miao Chengyang is dead or alive, or what Li Siguang and Zhou Yi's families think, Senior Sister's interference means that this matter ends here. Unless they want to officially declare war on Senior Sister.

In short, don't worry. As long as you don't cause trouble again, no one in the outer sect will dare to touch you.

Why does it feel like this backer is not too reliable?

Pei Ling was worried, but he did not dare to say anything else. After all, in Zheng Jingshan's eyes, he did not care about life and death in order to pursue the Great Dao. That was why he was treated differently by the other party. If he hesitated too much at this moment and aroused the other party's dissatisfaction and suspicion, what if he lost his only backer?

Hence, Pei Ling thanked him and asked Zheng Jingshan for an alchemy furnace and spirit stones to purchase alchemy materials. He followed the other party's instructions and left quietly from the back door of the small courtyard.
