Chapter Fifty-One: I Am Not Human

ne anymore."However, this is quite normal. Within the Heavenly Falling Sect, disciples have various restrictions on their authority. Lower-ranked disciples are not allowed to enter higher-level areas....The latest chapter is up on V,

Lao Hei deliberately didn't say the name of the pill in his hand, naturally wanting to test if Jiang Yun was lying.

Ginger Cloud didn't think much about it, reaching out to take the pill. He flipped it over several times, then placed it under his nose, sniffing it for a moment before speaking: "Reishi mushroom, Qing Si Dew, and Blue Shadow Butterfly powder - those are the only ones I can tell. To know the specifics, I'd have to taste it. But since there's butterfly powder, this pill must be poisonous."

After finishing his words, Ginger Cloud returned the pill to Old Hei who was as stunned as a wooden chicken.

Holding the elixir, Lao Hei's body trembled uncontrollably. In his eyes, Jiang Yun was no longer a human, but countless elixirs piled together!

Now, he fully believed what Gingercloud had said. Although Gingercloud hadn't mentioned all the materials in the pill, the ones she did say were correct.

"Hey little bro, no no no, Jiang Little Bro!" Lao Hei excitedly changed his address: "Big brother, can I talk to you about something"

Gingeryun said solemnly: "Brother Black has done me a great favor, just say what's up!"

Lao Hei excitedly nodded repeatedly, "Good, good! It's clear that Brother Jiang is a loyal and righteous person who values gratitude. In that case, I won't be polite. Could you help me refine some pills Don't worry, I'll provide all the necessary materials!"

Gingercloud did not answer, but lowered her head in thought.

To know, whether it is the human race or the demon race, if they want to ask a pill refiner for help in refining pills, besides providing materials themselves, they also need to pay a certain price.

The higher the rank of the refined elixir, the greater the price.

Even so, it still depends on the alchemist's mood, so Lao Hei was afraid that Jiang Yun would refuse, so he kept offering conditions.

Jiang Yun still thought for a while before saying, "Of course I can help my elder brother refine pills. But if it's a pill I haven't refined before and there is no recipe, then I definitely need to try several times, and the success rate cannot be guaranteed. As for the Tongmai Pill, I do want to refine it, but I have never seen this kind of pill before, and I don't know the ingredients."

Old Hei, upon hearing this, immediately pounded his chest and said: "These are nothing to worry about. Although I don't have the finished product for these two types of pills, I do have the recipes. I'll give them directly to my younger brother. As for the success rate, you don't need to think about it too much. Even if the refining fails, I won't blame you."

"A recipe!" Ginger Cloud's eyes lit up as well. "Then we should try it!"

Seeing that Jiang Yun had agreed, Lao Hei was instantly excited and said: "As long as my younger brother can refine the pills I need, just say if there's anything else you need help with!"

Jiang Yun scratched his head and said, "Speaking of which, I really do have something that needs Brother Hei's help."

Lao Hei, full of energy, waved his hand and said, "Speak!"

"I need a lot of beast cores."

"Beast Pill" Lao Hei's hand, which was about to swing out, froze in mid-air. He blinked and asked, "A large amount How much"

> "The more, the better!"

"This…"

Lao Hei's face showed a grim expression. Although he didn't need the beast core, one beast core meant killing at least one ferocious beast. And since Jiang Yun needed a large number of them, wouldn't that mean killing all the seventh-rank or higher ferocious beasts in the entire Trapped Beast Forest

This absolutely won't do!

Jiang Yun saw Lao Hei's predicament, which was actually something he had always struggled with.

He came from Mangshan, naturally knowing that one shouldn't exterminate ferocious beasts ruthlessly. So he continued, "Actually, beast dan isn't a necessity; other things imbued with the Dao's essence will also work."

"Does it contain Daoist intent"

"Hmm!"

"That's easy!" Old Hei's face immediately lost its displeasure. With a wave of his hand, he made a pile of glittering stones appear in front of Ginger Cloud. They were of different sizes, at least over a hundred pieces.

"Spirit stone" Jiang Yun asked uncertainly.

So-called spirit stones are stones nurtured by heaven and earth, containing a concentrated essence of spiritual energy. The spiritual energy within them is far purer than that which floats freely in the world. Depending on the amount and purity of spiritual energy they contain, spirit stones are categorized into nine grades.

The exchange ratio between them is 1:10. One second-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for ten first-grade spirit stones, and so on.

Spirit stones can both absorb spiritual energy and are the most common currency used in transactions between cultivators.

Although Ginger Cloud had heard of spirit stones, he had never seen them before. After all, as a handyman disciple within the Questioning Dao Sect, he only became eligible for a few spirit stones each month when he reached the status of an outer sect disciple.

"Yes, spirit stones. Each one contains a certain amount of Dao intent."

Although Lao Hei didn't know what Jiang Yun was going to do with the Dao intent-infused things, since Dao intent wasn't very useful, he wasn't planning on asking. He generously said: "Just take all these spirit stones, Jiang younger brother."

"This, is too much!" Ginger Cloud said embarrassedly.

Lao Hei intentionally put on a stern face and said, "Don't be polite with your older brother, just take it if you're given it!"

In fact, Ginger Cloud had no idea. These spirit stones before her seemed plentiful, but they were all the lowest grade, worth hardly a few coins. If it were cultivators above the Fortune Land Realm, they wouldn't even look at them.

Furthermore, if Jiang Yun could truly succeed in helping Lao Hei refine the required medicinal pills, a single pill would be enough to exchange for thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of first-grade spirit stones.

Lao Hei, seeing that Jiang Yun was more naive, deliberately used these first-grade spirit stones to fool him.

Seeing Jiang Yun happily put all the spirit stones into his storage ring, Lao Hei was also overjoyed and said, "Well then, Brother Jiang, when are you going to start refining"

"If I have the materials, I can try to refine them now!"

"Okay, follow me!"

Lao Hei waved his sleeve, and Jiang Yun only felt a whirlwind envelop him. Immediately after, his body felt light, and the scenery around him changed at an incredible speed, like riding the clouds and mist. In the blink of an eye, he had left where he was just moments before and arrived in an underground cave.

This cave is incredibly spacious, large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people. Lao Hei also smiled and said, "This is my residence, little brother, you can refine medicine here!"

Jiang Yun curiously looked around and said, "Is this still within the Beast Trap Forest Old Hei Brother, do you live in the Beast Trap Forest"

Hearing this, Lao Hei suddenly chuckled and said, "Brother Jiang, do you know what my identity is"

"Who are you" Jiang Yun was startled. "Aren't you Big Brother's friend"

As Jiang Yun's voice fell, Lao Hei's withered body suddenly exploded, transforming into a cloud of black mist that rose and fell before Jiang Yun. At this moment, the temperature in the entire underground cave plummeted, as if it had become an ice cavern.

From the mist emerged Lao Hei's voice, just as cold and emotionless as before: "I'm your senior brother's friend! But in reality, I'm not human. I am a demon!"k a step forward. Just like Bai Zun, in an instant, they found themselves standing on their own seals.Evidently, for Gu Bulao's sudden utterance, coupled with the premonition of unease they already ha...
