Jeang Yuanbin looked at Chu Yunfan. During this period of time, he had done his best and used all the resources and connections that he had to collect the medicinal ingredients on the list that Chu Yunfan had given him.
A medicinal pill that would allow a person to break through to the Divine Abilities Stage was, of course, not something that could be made with ordinary medicinal ingredients.
The medicinal efficacy of a medicinal pill was proportional to the preciousness of the ingredients used. This was the eternal truth of the alchemy world. It was because of this that there were two directions within the field of alchemy that would forever be the mainstream direction of development. One was to study different alchemy formulas according to different needs, and the other was to continuously improve the existing formulas.
But in general, it was unlikely that extremely cheap medicinal ingredients would be used to make heaven-defying medicinal pills. This did not conform to the objective law of item production.
Just like Chu Yunfan’s memories of the Alchemy Emperor. Under the condition that the cost had not changed, the medicinal effect of the pill he produced was doubly effective. This was extremely heaven-defying.
And the person who had made such an improvement was the Alchemy Emperor, a leader within the field of alchemy. Even if the others had spent decades, improving even one pill and increasing its medicinal effect by 10 to 20 percent was already very shocking.
Therefore, what Jeang Yuanbin said about going bankrupt was not a joke. It was true that he had run himself dry. He had even sold that Black Hawk jet that he had spent a lot of effort to buy back then.
Although his heart ached, Jeang Yuanbin did not even blink when he did these things. He clearly understood one thing, and that was what was lost could be regained. As long as he could break through to the Divine Abilities Stage, the money that he had lost would definitely be returned tenfold or even a hundredfold.
Divine Abilities experts were completely different from Innate experts, even if they were at the peak of the Innate Stage.
If Jeang Yuabin did not become a Divine, he would still be just an ant.
And now, everything was finally ready. Jeang Yuabin was just waiting for Chu Yunfan to concoct the Divinity Nourishment Pill. With its help, he was confident that he would be able to break through to the Divine Abilities Stage.
Jean Yuanbin would then become one of the few experts in the world.
Of course, if it failed, Jeang Yuanbin might lose everything. It would take a lot of time for him to accumulate such wealth again.
But Jeang Yuanbin was willing to take a gamble because he believed in Chu Yunfan. He could afford to lose. If he lost, he would lose everything which, to ordinary people, was very scary, but to experts at his level, it was only a matter of time before he made a comeback.
“I’ll start after making some preparations,” Chu Yunfan said.
This incident had rung a warning bell for Chu Yunfan. That was, he really needed a big backer. An ordinary person would not be able to rely on this backer, but the Jiangs and the Huangs hated him to the bone. Now, they had already mobilized a pillar-like figure at the seventh level of the Innate Stage.
If this were to continue, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This time, the Jiangs and the Huangs’ plans had failed. But judging by their character, they would not let this matter rest.
When the time came, there might even be a peak Innate expert. Unless Chu Yunfan’s strength increased explosively, he needed a strong backer.
At this time, Chu Yunfan once again felt the urgency of time. He really needed more time.
“All right. When you’re ready, come to my training hall. When the time comes, I’ll activate all of my defensive measures. Even Divine Ability Stage experts can forget about getting in,” Jeang Yuanbin said.
Jeang Yuanbin’s training hall was the place that consumed most of his resources. From the moment he stepped into the Innate Stage, he had started to build his training hall. This was his nest, and it contained most of his secrets. He had purchased all kinds of defensive equipment one after another. Now, it had become a secret fortress. Even if a fully armed army wanted to take it down, it was not something that could be done in a short period.
For most martial artists, this was the norm. Whether it was cultivation, seclusion, or research, martial artists needed an absolutely safe place.
Of course, to Chu Yunfan, there was no safer place than the Mountain River Diagram. Therefore, he did not need such a training hall. Everything could be accomplished within the diagram.
Chu Yunfan also had to prepare for other things, and that was preparing to break through to the Innate Stage. His cultivation base had been catalyzed by the Three-Stripe Purple-gold Pill, and he had already stepped into the peak of the Acquired Stage. Moreover, the Three-Stripe Purple-gold Pill had opened up quite a bit of the Ren and Du meridians in his body. But, there was still a long way to go before he could open them up completely. It would not be an impossible feat to rely on just himself to slowly open them up one by one, but that process would be much longer.
And what Chu Yunfan lacked the most right now was time. His one-year agreement with Jiang Lingxiao was approaching. If he did not increase his strength before then, his chances of winning would be slim. He had to cross the threshold of the Innate Stage to have a chance of winning.
Breaking through to the Innate Stage with just an Innate Pill would be relatively difficult. However, the Three-Stripe Purple-gold Pill had already opened up a little of Chu Yunfan’s Ren and Du meridians. As long as he consumed the Innate Pill, he had at least an 80% chance of breaking through to the Innate Stage.
Having such a high chance was enough for Chu Yunfan to give it his all.
But before that, Chu Yunfan first had to gather all the medicinal ingredients for the Innate Pill. The Innate Pill he was about to make was different from ordinary Innate Pills. Its medicinal effect was several times stronger, and of course, its price was also far from what ordinary Innate Pills could compare to.
The price of an ordinary Innate Pill was over 100 million yuan. The medicinal ingredients for the Innate pill that Chu Yunfan wanted to concoct were over 500 million. And that did not include the price to hire an alchemist who was of the same level as him.
The source of Chu Yunfan’s funds now naturally came from Shanhe Alchemy. After removing the threat of the Jiangs and the Huangs and gaining the protection of the Chus, Shanhe Alchemy expanded and developed at an extremely fast pace.
As the company’s general manager, Lu Qingxuan was extremely busy. After hearing Chu Yunfan’s request, although it placed her in a difficult position, she still managed to think of a way to borrow 500 million yuan from the bank.
With the current development momentum of Shanhe Alchemy, it was easy to borrow 500 million yuan. The banks were afraid that Shanhe Alchemy would not take a loan, not that they were afraid that Shanhe Alchemy would not be able to repay the debt.
The patented Qi Replenishing Pills were the biggest guarantee and confidence of Shanhe Alchemy repaying the debt.
A week later, Chu Yunfan finally finished purchasing all the medicinal herbs needed to make the Innate Pill. Only then did Chu Yunfan rush to Jeang Yuanbin’s training hall to meet up with him.
