“Junior Brother Lu, you can rest assured.”

“Your alchemy skills have this value.”

Sitting in Lu Ming’s cave abode, Gu Zecang earnestly said to Lu Ming in front of him.

About this matter, long after he said “Deal” on the Pill Peak, Han Daobai forcefully pulled him into the Pill Hall’s quiet room and began to discuss in detail.

The reason why Han Daobai was able to mobilize 10% of the Pill Peak’s resources was that he was only a Hall Master.

It was because all the resources on the Pill Peak came from the five Great Pill Halls.

Each Pill Hall’s medicinal pills accounted for 20% each.

Therefore, the 10% that Han Daobai spoke of referred to half of the resources extracted from Pill Hall No. 1.

Han Daobai told Gu Zecang that he was very confident in his new alchemy technique.

As long as it was promoted, the benefits obtained by the Pill Hall would probably increase by several times, far surpassing the present.

When that time came, the refined pills would be exchanged for spirit stones and medicinal herbs.

At that time, even if half of the pills were to be given to Gu Zecang and the others, the remaining half would still far surpass the present.

As long as Gu Zecang promised not to trade with other Pill Halls, then Pill Hall No. 1 would become a golden signboard!

Especially after Han Daobai personally witnessed the process of alchemy and the results.

He was naturally very willing to make this deal with Gu Zecang.

At the same time, after hearing Gu Zecang’s words, Lu Ming nodded and then cautiously asked, “Senior Brother Gu, can you guarantee that Han Daobai can complete this deal?”

“What if the disciples of Pill Hall No. 1 are prepared to break the contract after learning alchemy?”

Lu Ming, who had lived two lifetimes, naturally thought of this. After all, he had seen too many cases of breaking contracts or betraying one’s trust.

“I also thought of this at that time. We can make an oath of Heaven with Han Daobai.”

“This kind of oath can guarantee a deal. After all, anyone who violated the oath of Heaven will be immediately annihilated by the Heavenly Lightning.”

Gu Zecang spoke of the practice of the cultivation world in the past.

“Good. Since that’s the case, then I can be at ease.”

“I agree to senior brother imparting alchemy skills to the Pill Peak disciples, but don’t reveal my identity for now. I prefer to be anonymous.”

Lu Ming finally relaxed.

In fact, Lu Ming wasn’t worried that after Gu Zecang imparted alchemy skills, the medicinal pills he refined would depreciate.

This kind of situation was impossible.

For a Pill Peak disciple with no scientific alchemy technique, no matter how well he learned from Gu Zecang, 99% completion was already the limit.

Although the value could also increase by several times, it was still within the range of failure.

There was always a slight probability of failure.

Even though the probability seemed low, in reality, it could only be made up by dozens of pills.

However, Lu Ming was refining a pill with a 100% completion rate.

At the highest level, the effect of consuming the pill would be effective, crushing them perfectly.

Moreover, what Gu Zecang had learned was only Rank 1 scientific alchemy technique.

After completing the system mission, Lu Ming would be able to unlock Rank 2, Rank 3 and higher rank pills.

Without Lu Ming telling them the most suitable fire temperature for each medical herb used to make the Rank 2 pill, even after knowing the principle of controlling fire, it was still useless.

Lu Ming was sure to make a profit without losing anything.

“Alright, then I’ll leave the rest to Senior Brother Gu.”

Lu Ming smiled at Gu Zecang.

“No problem, just leave it to me.”

Gu Zecang was also extremely happy at this moment.

“Oh right, Junior Brother Lu, can we split this resource 30-70?”

Gu Zecang was just about to leave when he suddenly thought of a crucial question. He opened his mouth a little embarrassedly.

Hiss.

30-70?

No way, Senior Brother Gu, are you kidding me?

Isn’t this a little too unfair?

Lu Ming subconsciously thought that it was going to be 50-50.

But he remembered that after all, teaching was a trivial task that Gu Zecang had to do.

He had only helped him in the beginning to complete the mission.

Moreover, if Gu Zecang didn’t tell him, he might not have any at all.

Thus, in the end, he still nodded.

Alright.

“Alright, this is fine with me. I can agree.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zecang immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

When he saw Lu Ming’s hesitation, he thought that he had gone too far.

After all, Junior Brother Lu Ming had helped him a lot. Besides teaching others, he hadn’t done anything else.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he wanted to increase his realm to kill more heretics, he was too embarrassed to ask.

“Thank you, Junior Brother Lu, for being willing to share 30% with me. When my realm rises, I’ll kill more heretics!”

Ah, this.

Lu Ming hadn’t expected this.

So the 70% that Gu Zecang had mentioned was for him.

Then, Lu Ming didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Fine.

Senior Brother Gu was a good person, so he gave away his money!

…

After Lu Ming bid farewell to the joyful Gu Zecang, he took the opportunity to bring the healing pills to the registration pavilion on Tianguang Peak at noon.

He applied for the token to leave the sect.

After the disciples of the Center Sect had reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, their cultivation state in the secular world was considered pretty good.

Many free-travelling practitioners in the secular world were stuck in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Therefore, the sect allowed disciples above the Foundation Establishment Stage to go out.

Of course.

The auction house that Lu Ming was going to was not far from his sect.

It was completely under the protection of the Center Sect, guarded by the disciples of the Center Sect.

The heretics wouldn’t be so unaware of that.

It was reasonable to say that there wouldn’t be any danger.

Otherwise, Lu Ming wouldn’t consider leaving the sect.

Though the resources on the Pill Peak were a huge sum of money, he still had a year to get them.

He couldn’t help but improve his external power during this year.

He still had to buy the talismans and spiritual tools.

In addition, he was also curious about how many spirit stones his healing pills were worth at the auction house.

Therefore, Lu Ming, a well-prepared practitioner from the Center Sect, went down the mountain.
