I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 169: Guaranteed Pill Refinement Success Rate

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As long as Zhou Feng disappeared from this world, then all questions regarding him would disappear.

This was Wang Shu’s idea, and it was also the idea of most people in this world.

‘However, how to perfectly deal with this person needs to be carefully considered…’

Wang Shu wasn’t a profligate son. He knew that if he wanted to deal with Zhou Feng, he had to do it cleanly.

There could not be any mistakes. If there were any mistakes, the consequences would be very serious.

If the Li Clan got wind of this matter, it would be a serious blow to his plan.

Don’t look at how Wang Shu acted in front of Li Rong. He was completely different when he faced the Li Elders.

It could be said that Wang Shu had accurately grasped the key to the marriage alliance with the Li Clan.

The ones who could truly decide on the marriage alliance with the Li Clan were the Li Elders. As for Li Rong’s opinion, it might be of some help but not important.

Even Li Manya’s opinions were not very important. After all, she had once been in a similar situation with Li Rong.

It was just that Li Manya was talented enough to break through to the Divine Ability realm. She had the power to control her own life, so she did not have to go through marriage alliance discussions with other clans.

The ones who had the right to speak were the Elders and the Clan Leaders.

‘Borrow someone else’s knife to kill? No way!’

Wang Shu originally wanted to use the method of borrowing someone else’s knife to kill, but this method was too risky.

There was the danger of exposing himself.

At present, the situation was great for Wang Shu, and he didn’t need to use this kind of trick at all.

‘I should take revenge directly! Only then will I be good-for-nothing! And this time, I can borrow the Li Clan’s resources!’

Wang Shu thought for a moment and felt that it was best to take revenge directly.

In fact, it would be even better if he could borrow the Li Clan’s power. This would be more in line with his status as a good-for-nothing.

In addition, as a vagabond cultivator, Zhou Feng certainly didn’t meet the requirements for the Li Clan to choose a son-in-law.

Generally speaking, the more ancient the clan, the more important it was to be born and have blood ties.

This was because the higher the cultivation level of a cultivator, the higher the aptitude of their descendants.

Although the Wang Clan had declined, at least their ancestors had been rich.

Zhou Feng, who had appeared out of nowhere, would not be accepted by those stubborn old fogies of the Li Clan.

Unless Zhou Feng’s aptitude was extraordinary, and he could break through to the Divine Ability realm in the future.

Just as Wang Shu was racking his brain to scheme against Zhou Feng, trying to eliminate this threat…

Zhou Feng did not feel anything at all. He was completely immersed in refining pills.

He did not even know that a person was already racking his brain to scheme against him in order to become a son-in-law.

If Zhou Feng found out about this…

He would think that this person was sick.

Marrying into the Li Clan? He would not do that.

What cultivation clan? What resources? He had no interest in that. A free and unfettered life was Zhou Feng’s wish.

Zhou Feng didn’t have any earth-shattering wish like becoming the master of the world. He just wanted to live forever. As for other fights, he wasn’t interested at all.

According to the information that Zhou Feng had gathered, as long as he broke through to the Divine Ability realm, he would have a guaranteed lifespan of 500 years.

He could use all kinds of methods to extend his lifespan.

His primary goal now was to live for 500 years.

How many passive skills would he acquire in 500 years?

Zhou Feng felt that even if his aptitude was lackluster, he could still become one of the top cultivators by relying on thousands of passive skills.

‘I’m finally done!’

Zhou Feng looked at the medicinal herbs’ dross in front of him and let out a long sigh.

He had finally refined all the medicinal herbs!

The success rate of refining the Spirit Accumulation Pill was really too low, only 15%!

In other words, other than relying on his passive Skill Proficiency, he had never relied on his own strength to successfully refine the Spirit Accumulation Pill.

Although he was a little unable to accept this, he still expressed his understanding. After all, he had never systematically learned the art of pill refinement before.

Also, in order to make the passive skill recognize him as a Class 1 Pill Master, Zhou Feng specially refined the simplest Grade-1 pill.

Normally, being able to refine a Grade-1 pill signified that one was a Class 1 Pill Master.

After that, he would be able to perfectly trigger the passive Skill Proficiency. Zhou Feng felt that he was still very meticulous.

‘The quality doesn’t seem to be that good…’

Zhou Feng took a look at the pill formation and realized that the quality was passable.

However, it didn’t matter. In any case, being able to refine this Spirit Accumulation Pill was already a huge profit.

If he didn’t have the passive Skill Proficiency, he felt that he would have wasted all the medicinal ingredients and wouldn’t have been able to successfully refine it.

The Pill Master profession was a high-risk one. Once the refinement failed, it would be like losing everything.

However, if the success rate of the pill was guaranteed, then the Pill Master would also earn a lot.

For example, the hundreds of Spirit Accumulation Pills in front of Zhou Feng only took less than one night.

The raw materials were probably worth 10,000 Spirit Stones?

The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s medicinal ingredients seemed to be relatively cheap.

And the lowest price for a Spirit Accumulation Pill seemed to be 2,000 to 3,000 Spirit Stones?

Zhou Feng didn’t know the exact price, but he conservatively estimated that under the 15% success rate of the pill, the profit would definitely be more than ten times.

According to this calculation, Zhou Feng would probably only need a few days to redeem the medicine gourd.

He cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, so this medicine gourd was now relatively important to him.

The medicinal gourd was a top-grade soul artifact, so it didn’t have much use to Zhou Feng in the past.

But now, it was different. The Human Emperor Scripture consumed too much Blood Qi, and the medicinal liquid in the medicinal gourd could provide a large amount of Blood Qi.

The price was only some medicinal ingredients. He only needed to keep putting medicinal ingredients to obtain plenty of medicinal liquid that replenished Blood Qi. This was practically a divine artifact that could assist in cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture.

‘Oh right! Perhaps I can get Qian Shang to come over and open a shop that specializes in selling pills!’

Now that Zhou Feng had the passive Skill Proficiency in his arsenal, he could refine and sell his pills.

He could also buy medicinal herbs on his own. He would be able to control the channels of buying and selling his medicinal herbs, earning more in the process.

He even felt that he could specialize in some low-grade healing pills. Not only was the market large enough, but the refining speed was also fast enough.

In any case, the pill success rate was guaranteed. He felt that they would be even more profitable than the Spirit Accumulation Pill if there were enough of them.

After all, if it was a healing pill like the Rejuvenation Pill, Zhou Feng would make dozens of them in one batch.

Compared to the Spirit Accumulation Pill, which was challenging to refine, the speed was many times faster.

‘I will take time to refine pills and convert them into cultivation resources daily. Then, I’ll slowly cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture. When my body gets used to it, I’ll search for information about the Earth Malevolent Qi and start condensing the Human Emperor Blood.’

Zhou Feng had already planned his future cultivation regime.

No pressure! No enemies! This kind of cultivation life was suitable for him.

He could even fish when he was bored.. It was simply the carefree life that he had been longing for.
