Chapter 182: Enemies Meet Again

He Pingsheng had never heard of the Twin Shuang Shen Dan, nor had he seen it.

But through the effects described by Master Xuanyuan, he was shocked: In the cultivation world, there was actually such a heaven-defying pill?

Can double a person's spiritual sense strength?

Although it was only for an hour, that was heaven-defying enough.

Think about it, now He Pingsheng's spiritual sense could sweep a distance of three or four hundred zhang, so after eating the pill, the spiritual sense would become eight hundred zhang.

Originally unable to see through this Master Xuanyuan's cultivation, he would be able to see through it then.

And after the spiritual sense became strong, when fighting with others, one would definitely occupy the upper hand.

Also, if one ate one when refining some important pills, letting the spiritual sense double, the success rate of refining pills would increase quite a bit.

Heaven-defying!

It was truly too heaven-defying.

"Fellow Daoist should not know much about this 【Twin Shuang Shen Dan】, but it doesn't matter... I won't deceive you!"

"This is the pill formula recording the 【Twin Shuang Shen Dan】, take a look!"

Master Xuanyuan Changgeng handed over a piece of paper.

This paper was slightly yellowed, and the handwriting on it also had traces of time; one look and one could tell it was not a new thing.

"This is one I took from my pill formula, take a look!"

"Alright!" He Pingsheng took the pill formula and looked at it carefully for a while, then nodded and said: "Indeed so!"

This pill formula not only recorded the various materials and attributes for refining the Twin Shuang Shen Dan but also recorded the precautions and steps during refining.

Among them was the material 【Mist God Flower】.

And it was a main material, an irreplaceable main material.

Because this material was too rare, this Twin Shuang Shen Dan did not appear in the world.

"This pill formula is no problem!" He Pingsheng handed the pill formula in his hand to Master Xuanyuan: "I don't know, fellow Daoist Master Xuanyuan, what are you inviting me to do?"

"Refine pills?"

"No, no, no..." Master Xuanyuan waved his hand and said: "Fellow Daoist, you misunderstood. What I want to say is, actually, I haven't obtained this 【Mist God Flower】 yet; it is still growing in that mystic realm at this moment!"

"Actually, it can't be considered a mystic realm, just a hidden place!"

"Where this Mist God Flower is located, there are two peak Foundation Establishment demonic beasts guarding it. I can't handle it alone, so I want to invite fellow Daoist to go together, kill the demonic beasts, and pick the Mist God Flower!"

"But fellow Daoist, rest assured, it is not just the two of us; I have invited three others!"

"When the time comes, the five of us will go together, and after collecting the Mist God Flower and refining it into pills, I will give you one!"

"How about it?"

He Pingsheng smiled and said: "I don't know why fellow Daoist Master Xuanyuan chose me?"

Master Xuanyuan Changgeng didn't answer He Pingsheng's question but asked back: "May I ask fellow Daoist's name?"

He Pingsheng cupped his hands: "My surname is He!"

"Good, so it is fellow Daoist He!" Master Xuanyuan Changgeng looked at He Pingsheng with a sincere face and said: "Although this Mist God Flower is only a second-tier material, it is an extremely rare rule-based spiritual herb, so I don't dare to just find anyone to go. If I find disciples from aristocratic families or large sects to go, it is easy to make mistakes!"

"Fellow Daoist He doesn't look like a disciple of an aristocratic family or a large sect; you should be a loose cultivator!"

He Pingsheng said: "Not bad!"

"Hmm..." Master Xuanyuan Changgeng said: "It seems I guessed right. Fellow Daoist He, rest assured, I don't have any other meaning, I just feel that loose cultivators like us are less likely to make mistakes!"

"Also, I want your poison!"

"You are a poison cultivator. If this poison is applied properly, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort!"

He Pingsheng pondered for a while and said: "Alright... however, I want to see the other three teammates first before I can finally decide whether to go with you!"

Master Xuanyuan said: "No problem... how about this, three days later, let's gather at the highest peak of Shuiyang Mountain outside the Dongmen!"

"If you are willing to go together then, we will follow the previous agreement!"

"If you are not willing, then we will go as four, although it might take some effort, it is not necessarily impossible to take it down!"

"Alright!" He Pingsheng talked to Master Xuanyuan Changgeng about some details of acquiring second-tier 【poison pills】, settling on fifty spirit stones each, plus an additional ten spirit stones as a fee.

Only then did He Pingsheng lift his feet and leave.

After coming out of this alchemy shop, He Pingsheng did not immediately return to his small courtyard.

Instead, the conversation with Master Xuanyuan Changgeng made him realize his shortcomings in alchemy.

Relying on a mere Thirty-Six Formulas was really not enough.

He decided to buy some basic books on alchemy to read, so as to make up for his lack of alchemy common sense, so as not to be laughed at in the future.

So He Pingsheng stepped into the Coral Chamber of Commerce again.

In this Dingxiang City, there were dozens of chambers of commerce, but there were only three top-tier ones: one was the Royal Chamber of Commerce, one was the Dingxiang Chamber of Commerce, and the other was this Coral Chamber of Commerce.

"What does Senior need?" A certain shop assistant at the seventh layer of Qi Condensation had a keen eye and ran to He Pingsheng in small steps.

He Pingsheng said: "I want to seek some classics about alchemy in the cultivation world. I don't know if you have such things here?"

"Yes, Senior, please follow me!" The chamber of commerce assistant led He Pingsheng to a shelf: "These are all classics about alchemy, feel free to look!"

He Pingsheng took a look.

A familiar book title appeared before his eyes: Thirty-Six Alchemy Formulas.

He Pingsheng smiled!

Besides the Thirty-Six Alchemy Formulas, there were some other classics. He Pingsheng, adhering to the principle that expensive meant comprehensive, spent sixteen thousand spirit stones to buy a jade slip named 【Ten Thousand Herb Alchemy Canon】.

The content inside was indeed very rich.

All in all, it contained tens of thousands of various spiritual herbs from first-tier to fourth-tier.

Besides spiritual herbs, there were over three hundred mature pill formulas.

Among them was the refining method for this 【Twin Shuang Shen Dan】.

The next thing was simple.

Returning to the small courtyard, he quietly used the Treasure Basin to strengthen it, and the Ten Thousand Herb Alchemy Canon was strengthened into two.

One was still called 【Ten Thousand Herb Alchemy Canon】, but the content was different from before; the records of various spiritual herbs inside were more detailed.

And those three hundred-plus pill formulas were also improved.

As for the other one, named 【Golden Core Collection】, it had the same effect, just introducing the tens of thousands of spiritual herbs in more detail, incidentally improving the pill formulas, and introducing many flat-replacement schemes in the pill formulas.

It could be said that these two books had no difference in quality; looking at either one was the same.

After He Pingsheng studied the 【Golden Core Collection】 for two days, the time agreed with Master Xuanyuan Changgeng arrived.

On this day, after he brought what was needed and made various preparations, he set off from the small courtyard, went out of the Dongmen, and flew his sword to the top of the 【Shuiyang Mountain】.

After landing, he indeed saw several cultivators.

With Master Xuanyuan as the leader.

However, when He Pingsheng's gaze swept over the few people beside him, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Because he saw an acquaintance—no, it should be said, an enemy. ===== CHAPTER 183 =====
