Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 41 Changes Over the Years [Vote for Recommendation!]

"""

According to the agreement between the two parties, the exploration version is priced at eleven spirit stones.

Yuan Yi Guild's internal usage price is 80% of the market price.

When the products are picked up from Lu Qingfeng for resale, they are purchased at 90% of the price.

That is to say.

Destroying Truth Type 2 (Exploration Version) sold to Yuan Yi Guild, is priced at 8.8 spirit stones. The wholesale price set by Yuan Yi Guild is 9.9 spirit stones.

Destroying Truth Type 2 (Guardian Version) sold to Yuan Yi Guild, is priced at 9.6 spirit stones. The wholesale price set by Yuan Yi Guild is 10.8 spirit stones.

And the cost for Lu Qingfeng to refine a Destroying Truth Type 2 puppet is only one spirit stone.

Moreover, as his proficiency improves, this cost will further decrease. Theoretically, it can be reduced to thirty fragments of spirit stones. Conservatively, it can be reduced to fifty fragments of spirit stones.

That is to say, for each Destroying Truth Type 2 puppet, Lu Qingfeng can earn a minimum of eight spirit stones and up to ten spirit stones at this stage!

With such huge profits, naturally, he would not disclose them.

Lu Qingfeng conceals his operation by aggressively purchasing raw materials.

Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.

For instance, for the ten Destroying Truth Type 2 (Exploration Version) ordered by Yuan Yi Guild, only materials needed for refining Level 1 puppets are required, with one set of materials costing about thirty spirit stone fragments.

Purchasing thirty sets will be enough for Lu Qingfeng to refine ten Destroying Truth Type 2 (Exploration Version) puppets, with a total value of about nine spirit stones.

Yet, Lu Qingfeng takes out fifty spirit stones from the full payment of eighty-eight spirit stones pre-paid by Mu Yuanyi to purchase materials. This includes approximately one hundred and twenty sets of first-level materials and fourteen sets of second-level materials.

This means for every ten puppets refined, Lu Qingfeng stockpiles ninety sets of first-level materials and fourteen sets of second-level materials!

However, these materials can also be used to refine Destroying Truth Type 1 for Lu Qingfeng's personal use.

...

Time passes.

Since the sales of Destroying Truth Type 2 began, Lu Qingfeng has constantly been staying in the Black Sand Refining Room.

Initially, it took him twenty-five days to refine one Destroying Truth Type 2.

After completing the Yuan Yi Guild's orders, Lu Qingfeng has shortened the time to twenty-two days.

In less than eight months, ten Destroying Truth Type 2 (Exploration Version) have been completed.

Lu Qingfeng profits thirty-eight spirit stones, ninety sets of first-level materials, and fourteen sets of second-level materials!

To the outside world including the internal members of Yuan Yi Guild, it is believed that Lu Qingfeng only made a profit of thirty-eight spirit stones. Although this amount is substantial, it is still within an acceptable range.

Thus.

Destroying Truth Type 2 first appeared within the Yuan Yi Guild, and then on a small scale in Sishui Town, Ping Mountain Town, and other guilds, eventually spreading to nine cities including Mushan City.

Orders come like snowflakes.

Lu Qingfeng enjoys it.

Apart from daily basic cultivation and alchemy, all his time is devoted to refining Destroying Truth Type 2.

Besides.

After completing each order, Lu Qingfeng also spends a few months refining Destroying Truth Type 1, and researching the refinement of Xuan Tie Flying Sky Shield, Invisible Needle, Stepping Cloud Boots, Golden Centipede Mother-Child Blade, Sun-shattering Bow, and other such artifacts.

Lu Qingfeng slightly modifies Destroying Truth Type 1 so it can utilize these several artifacts.

At the same time, Lu Qingfeng also uses these artifacts himself to enhance his combat strength.

In this way, he maximizes the utilization of his energy.

Years go by.

The number of puppets Lu Qingfeng refines goes from ten to twenty, then from twenty to forty, continuously increasing.

The time needed to refine a puppet also has decreased from the initial twenty-five days to twenty-two days, and then to fifteen days.

As time progresses, it becomes increasingly difficult to improve.

It only took eight months and ten puppets for Lu Qingfeng to progress from twenty-five days to twenty-two days, but to reduce from twenty-two days to fifteen days took him thirteen years and two hundred and fifty-four puppets!

Perhaps it is because Lu Qingfeng conceals it properly, confusing the outside observers.

"""

Perhaps Lu Qingfeng was being overly anxious and frightening himself.

In any event.

He had peacefully spent his third decade in the Yuan Yi Guild, and then smoothly transitioned through his fourth and fifth decades.

Time flew by.

He had reached the end of his sixth decade.

...

Cycles of causes and effects overlapped one after another.

Flowers wilted and blossomed, through the years.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Qingfeng had been with the Yuan Yi Guild for sixty years.

That year.

Mu Yuanyi successfully broke through to the Foundation Establishment Body Tempering Realm, advancing to the Spirit Void Realm, becoming a True Cultivator of the Immortal Dao.

Instantly, the Yuan Yi Guild plunged into jubilation.

Mu Yuanyi's achievement as a Spirit Void True Cultivator also meant that the Yuan Yi Guild could establish a sect, building its own school. From then on, it would be an existence equal to the Spirit Mechanism Institute.

For nearly two months, Mu Yuanyi closed himself off to stabilize his Spirit Void Cultivation. The Yuan Yi Guild was in high gear, busily preparing and arranging details for site selection and mountain opening, among other things.

Lu Hongwen, Yu Bufan, Zhang Zong, and other elder-level figures, were incredibly busy.

Lu Qingfeng also took the rare opportunity to stroll around Yuan Yi Mountain, looking for any place he could be of help.

"Elder Qingfeng."

"Greetings to Elder Qingfeng!"

"Younger generation pays respect to Elder Qingfeng."

As he walked along Yuan Yi Mountain, guild members continuously bowed to Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng smiled and nodded in response, one by one.

Compared to sixty years ago, Yuan Yi Mountain was truly transformed.

Back then, there were only buildings at the mountain summit and part way down the slopes. Lu Qingfeng still remembered, at that time at the very edge of the mountain summit, there were only Wang Tao's Purple Smoke Alchemy Room and Yue Ran's Immortal Spirit Alchemy Room.

Then, Lu Qingfeng's Black Sand Alchemy Room was added, and not long after, Lu Qingfeng personally constructed the Black Sand Artifact Refining Room.

So many years had flashed by.

Now, Yuan Yi Mountain was clustered with buildings, resembling a mountain city. Although there were still only these three alchemy rooms at the mountain summit, the front of Yuan Yi Mountain had acquired many more alchemy rooms.

Wang Tao and Yue Ran, including disciples taught by Lu Qingfeng, gradually graduated.

Upon becoming a High-level Alchemy Apprentice, they were able to apply to the guild to establish their own alchemy rooms. What they needed to do was to train another batch of new apprentices for the Yuan Yi Guild.

Alchemy is a profession that sifts through the crowd.

In the decades since the establishment of the Black Sand Alchemy Room, countless alchemy and pharmaceutic apprentices had come and gone. In the end, only thirty-two with better talent remained.

Among these thirty-two, six had reached the level of High-level Alchemy Apprentice, and had established their own alchemy rooms in the front mountain. Additionally, one person of extraordinary talent had already become a Top-level Alchemy Apprentice, on par with Lu Qingfeng.

Of course.

Although also a Top-level Alchemy Apprentice, Lu Qingfeng held the status of an elder-level elder in the guild.

Whether in terms of connections or seniority, he was among the top in the guild.

Over the years, Lu Qingfeng had mentored countless juniors, with the six High-level Alchemy Apprentices and one Top-level Alchemy Apprentice disciple in the guild's Alchemy Lineage only surpassing Wang Tao and Yue Ran, who were First-rank Alchemists.

Over the years, Lu Qingfeng selectively contributed his own improved Elixir Recipes to the guild.

With the huge profits from refining puppets, the minor benefits from Elixir Pills could no longer catch Lu Qingfeng's interest.

It could be said that all the alchemists and alchemy apprentices in the Yuan Yi Guild had benefited from Lu Qingfeng's generosity, to varying degrees.

With such deep connections and seniority, even though his cultivation was slightly weaker, there was not a single person among Yuan Yi Mountain who dared to speak idly.

"Younger generation pays respect to Elder Qingfeng."

While Lu Qingfeng was strolling, a young man dressed in a white battle robe approached.
