“There’s no problem with the Detoxification Pills, you can pick them up in five days. However, about these two Inner Energy Pills, what does Brother intend to trade for them? Let me clarify, these Inner Energy Pills are medium quality first rank pills and their value is not to be underestimated.” Fang Lin said, half in jest, as he took out two Inner Energy Pills and weighed them in his hand.

Zhang Wen smiled, patted his Nine Palace Bag, and took out a piece of white animal skin.

“Take a look, brother. This should be suitable to exchange for your Inner Energy Pills,” Zhang Wen said.

Fang Lin unfolded the animal skin, only to find a pitch-black bead wrapped inside, about the size of a baby’s fist.

Fang Ling’s eyes narrowed, and he said in a low voice, “A Demon Beast Core?”

Zhang Wen nodded and said, “Brother has good eyes. It is indeed a Demon Beast Core, and it is from a One-Transformation Demon Beast. Its value should not be below that of a first rank pill.”

Hearing these words, Fang Lin took the black Demon Core in his hand and snltrea, sngnt1Y trowmng. soon, ms expression relaxecl.

“Tiger Demon Beast Core, One Transformation, Ninth Layer,” Fang Lin said.

Zhang Wen looked shocked. Fang Lin had just had a sniff and he had already identified the quality and origin of the Demon Beast Core. Zhang Wen had intended to introduce it in detail, but it was no longer necessary.

Zhang Wen looked at Fang Lin curiously and said, “Brother Fang indeed has keen perception. The Core does come from a One-Transformation, Ninth Layer Tiger Demon. Unfortunately, the Tiger Demon didn’t progress further, otherwise, I would have gotten a One-Transformation, Tenth Layer Core.”

Wild beasts can consume the essence of all things and transform into demons, declaring themselves as holy. The Human Clan refers to these as demons.

Demon Beasts have nine transformations , with the first being the weakest and the ninth being the strongest.

A One-Transformation Demon Beast is equivalent to a Human Origin stage martial artist.

However, because Demon Beasts consume the elements of heaven and earth, they often have bloodline talents. Hence, there are few people at the same stage who can confront a Demon Beast.

A One-Transformation, Ninth Layer Demon Beast can sweep across all Human Origin martial artists. Therefore, the Core of a One-Transformation, Ninth Layer Demon Beast is very valuable, equivalent to a first-rank pill.

Fang Lin was quite satisfied with this Tiger Demon Beast Core. The Demon Core has many uses. Although martial artists can’t consume it directly, it can be used for Pill Refining.

Moreover, even if it is not used for Pill Refining, the Demon Qi in the Core can be dissolved and consumed directly to advance a martial artist’s cultivation rapidly.

However, throughout history, not many martial artists have done this. After all, humans and demons are different. Even after the Demon Qi is dissolved, the Demon Core always contains a trace of demon power.

Once, there was a martial artist who longed for great power and constantly consumed Demon Cores. In the end, he became a Demon Beast and caused great harm.

Moreover, directly consuming Demon Cores is too wasteful. The power contained within a Demon Core, if refined into pills, would fully manifest its effects and be much more cost-effective than consuming it directly.

“How about it, Brother Fang? Are you satisfied with this Tiger Demon Beast Core?” When Zhang Wen saw Fang Lin not speaking, he asked.

Fang Lin said, “I am certainly satisfied with the Demon Core, but there is only one, and brother wants to exchange for two Inner Energy Pills. I’m afraid it’s not enough.”

Zhang Wen was taken aback, then said somewhat unsatisfied, “Brother Fang, isn’t one Tiger Demon Beast Core for your two Inner Energy Pills enough?”

Fang Lin shook his head. Indeed, it wasn’t enough. The value of a first-rank pill corresponded to a One-Transformation, Ninth Layer Demon Beast Core, which was at most enough to exchange for one Inner Energy Pill.

“Brother Zhang, the Inner Energy Pill is a first-rank pill, and you only have one Demon Beast Core, which can only be exchanged for one pill,” Fang Lin said, insisting on this point.

Zhang Wen was somewhat helpless, hesitated for a moment, then took out a stalk of medicinal herb.

“With this added, is it okay now?” Zhang Wen said, somewhat grudgingly.

Seeing the medicinal herb, Fang Lin immediately broke into a smile. Although this herb was not a precious one, it was quite old. As the saying goes, the older the item, the more precious it is. The value of this herb was just about right for a first-rank pill.

“In that case, these two Inner Energy Pills are yours, Brother Zhang.” Fang Lin said, handing the two Inner Energy Pills to Zhang Wen.

Zhang Wen also handed Fang Lin the medicinal herb and carefully accepted the Inner Energy Pills, with a satisfied smile on his face.

“Brother Zhang. Dlease mention me to the other brothers and sisters in the Martial Sect,” Fang Lin said with a subtle smile.

Zhang Wen was not a fool and naturally understood what Fang Lin meant. He also laughed and said, “Of course, Brother Fang can rest assured.” After chatting casually for a while, Zhang Wen said goodbye.

Fang Lin was in a good mood after selling two Inner Energy Pills. After finishing sorting the medicinal herbs in the garden, he went to visit Xu

Shangao, and brought back the medicinal herbs for refining Detoxification Pills.

After two days of hard work, he had successfully refined the Detoxification Pills. Since Detoxification Pills are not first-rank pills, they were not difficult to refine. He managed to successfully refine twelve pills, all of premium quality.

Looking at the twelve premium quality Detoxification Pills in his furnace, Fang Lin’s smile was splendid. This batch of Detoxification Pills would certainly satisfy Zhang Wen.

On the midday of the fifth day, Zhang Wen came. Seeing the twelve premium quality Detoxification Pills, he could not stop smiling.

In the end, Zhang Wen exchanged a Bear Demon Beast Core for these twelve premium Detoxification Pills.

Detoxification Pills are inconspicuous pills. It is enough to exchange them for a Bear Demon Beast Core. If one were to calculate carefully, Fang Lin even made a small profit.

After that, more official disciples of the Martial Sect came to commission Fang Lin to refine pills. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Lin sold all the six remaining Inner Energy Pills and exchanged them for many good items. His previously empty Nine Palace Bag was suddenly filled up.

With Zhang Wen and the Martial Sect disciples promoting him, Fang Lin’s reputation became well-known in the Martial Sect.

A lot of people came to Fang Lin to commission him to refine pills, but Fang Lin did not rush. Instead, he asked these martial sect disciples to wait patiently. After he attended a month’s course in the Pill Forest Academy, he would fulfill these commissions.

The Martial Sect disciples did not mind. Everyone knew that Fang Lin had the privilege to study in the Pill Forest Academy at any time for a year. No one thought that Fang Lin was deliberately stalling.

Fang Lin indeed planned to go to the Pill Forest Academy to study, but not really to study. He wanted to avoid the scrutiny of Pill Pavilion.

Fang Lin understood that if he was too diligent in refining pills for the Martial Sect disciples, and considering the number of people involved, Pill Pavilion might notice something.

He would hide in the Pill Forest Academy for a month to temporarily avoid Pill Pavilion’s attention.

Fang Lin was also curious to see what the Pill Forest Academy was like. After all, so many official disciples were longing to study in the Pill Forest Academy, and he couldn’t just not go. That wouldn’t be proper.

At the beginning of the month, Fang Lin arrived at the Pill Forest Academy along with other official disciples.

The official disciples have the opportunity to study in the Pill Forest Academy every month. Although it’s only for three days, it is precious to every disciple. Therefore, none of these disciples would miss the opportunity to study in the Pill Forest Academy each month.

It was Fang Lin’s first time at the Pill Forest Academy, so he appeared curious about everything. He looked around everywhere, which made him stand out among the many official disciples..
