Immortal Martial Arts: Marry a Wife and Live a Long Life

Chapter 15: I am a Pill Refining Genius

Han Mansion, Pill Refining Pavilion.

With the Han family's population increasing several times over, the original Han Mansion could no longer accommodate everyone. Han Li waved his hand and ordered the expansion of the mansion, directly expanding it outward, occupying an area of over 5,000 acres.

The expanded Han Mansion became more magnificent and could accommodate more people. Currently, only a small portion of the Han family's population resided there.

The ordinary people and even the family forces living around the Han Mansion were forcibly relocated. The Han family also provided four times the compensation, and those people left happily.

This operation caused a trend of real estate speculation in Lingjun City. Those with keen eyes knew that according to the growth trend of the Han Mansion's population, it wouldn't be long before the mansion needed to expand again. By then, the houses surrounding the new Han Mansion would be within the scope of demolition and could receive high compensation.

As a result, the prices of houses and land around the Han Mansion skyrocketed. This was just after the expansion of the Han Mansion. With the increasing population, the prices of surrounding land would continue to rise.

Many businessmen saw the opportunity and preemptively bought land at high prices. Some who couldn't wait due to their wealth needs sold their properties directly. Most of them waited for demolition. These businessmen didn't dare to cause trouble, otherwise, they would anger the Han family.

Now, there is an unwritten rule in Lingjun City that fighting is not allowed within a ten-mile radius of the Han Mansion. Otherwise, it would affect the Han family's ancestor playing in the backyard, and they would suffer greatly. There have been bitter lessons in the past.

The Pill Refining Pavilion is a large attic specially built by Han Li. The Refining Pavilion and the Weapon Refining Tower were both constructed in advance to be prepared.

After the Pill Refining Pavilion was built, Han Li moved all the materials needed for the various pill formulas he had collected over the years into it and began to attempt pill refining.

Han Li collected dozens of tenth-grade pill formulas, five ninth-grade pill formulas, and one eighth-grade pill formula. The higher the grade of the pill formula, the more precious it was. Han Li was pleasantly surprised that the Han family was able to collect an eighth-grade pill formula.

As for the pill formula for the Transcendence Pill that he treasured, it was a fourth-grade pill formula. Generally, it required a fourth-grade alchemist to refine it, but this was an exception in terms of pill formulas.

It could reach the fourth grade mainly because of its high value, which could enhance a cultivator's aptitude to the fifth grade. According to the records, it could be refined by a sixth-grade alchemist.

After staying in the Pill Refining Pavilion for a while, Han Li refined a large number of pills. The tenth-grade pill formulas posed no difficulty, the ninth-grade ones were slightly challenging, and the eighth-grade pill formula required careful consideration, but the success rate was high.

So, I have such talent in pill refining!

Han Li knew that this was the result of thirty years of pill refining experience, but would he admit it? This was all because of his genius!

From then on, Han Li immersed himself in pill refining in the Han Mansion. Every day, he would spend an hour refining pills. If he spent any more time, he would have none left. This not only passed the time but also opened up a new source of wealth for the Han family.

The Han family also started selling pills in their business, ranging from the lowest tenth-grade pills to eighth-grade pills. They sold a large quantity and earned secular wealth and spirit stones.

The Han family's population growth was too fast, and the resources for cultivation were already becoming scarce. Each child born in the next generation would receive a generous reward, with the majority being secular wealth and a small portion being spirit stones, pills, and so on.

Although the Han family's business had expanded to the entire Fengyang Prefecture in recent years, the speed of earning money couldn't keep up with the speed of consumption. Secular wealth was quite abundant, but there were too few spirit stones.

Most of the Han family's spirit stones and other cultivation resources were Han Li's savings, with a small portion earned from the family business. According to Han Li's estimate, in about three years of further development, his savings would be depleted.

However, now that the path of selling pills had been opened, it could also make up for this shortfall.

Han Li had already ordered the Han family to collect more pill formulas of eighth grade and above, and if necessary, he was willing to personally take action.

Ten-grade elixirs can't earn spirit stones, but nine-grade elixirs can. However, most cultivators in the Innate realm are poor and frugal with their spirit stones, so they are reluctant to spend them recklessly. That's why Han Li wants to open up the Sea Opening Realm market now.

The current problem is that there is only one recipe for the eighth-grade elixir targeting the Sea Opening Realm, so the market share it can occupy is very small.

After the expansion, the Han Residence as a whole became magnificent and grand. The pavilions and towers inside were beautiful and elegant, and the gardens were exquisite like paintings.

The expanded back garden of the Han Residence is large in scale, covering hundreds of acres. There are various flowers and trees, and peonies of different colors compete for beauty, blooming with tender stamens in red, purple, pink, and white, creating a colorful and fragrant scene.

In the back garden, there are several ponds filled with white lotus flowers and golden carp.

Behind the ponds, there are earthen hills built as mountains, and more than ten pavilions and towers nearby. There are seats on several shores, displaying various rare maps, ancient books, and precious antiques, complementing the beautiful scenery.

At this moment, Han Li is wearing a splendid white jade robe, his long hair is held up by a white jade crown, and a purple jade is hanging from his waist. His facial features are exquisite and handsome, showing extraordinary craftsmanship, and his temperament is gentle and refined.

Han Li is also holding a white feather folding fan in his right hand, looking elegant and refined. There are birds singing around, and a touch of green amidst the sea of flowers.

He is strolling with a group of concubines, enjoying the flowers and scenery in this place.

It can be seen that the concubines are very fond of the newly built back garden, and their faces are filled with excitement.

They come to the edge of the pond and strike a gong on the bank, causing the goldfish to leap out of the water and compete for food.

The movement of the fish and lotus in the pond reflects each other, and the pavilions and towers on the pond bank are reflected in the water. Han Li, Qiuyue Yao, Li Mingmeng, and others appear like figures walking out of a painting.

Afterwards, everyone comes to the garden, where there are not only various precious flowers, but also rare birds such as peacocks and cranes.

At this moment, a scene of myriad colors is presented before everyone's eyes.

Han Li has already planned the back garden so that there are beautiful views to enjoy in all four seasons: the vibrant colors of spring, the fragrant summer with purple dresses, the autumn leaves and yellow chrysanthemums, and the proud snow-covered red plum in winter.

Half a month later, Han Li received a piece of news.

In the main hall of the family, Han Li sat at the top, looking at the descendants below with some uneasiness, and said lightly, "Is the news true?"

As Han Li broke through to the Vital Spirit Realm, he became more and more majestic in front of his descendants. Although he had never displayed his strength in the Vital Spirit Realm, all the descendants felt overwhelmed. Unless necessary, the descendants would not disturb Han Li. Mainly because it was too difficult for them to face Han Li, they were trembling and dare not even take a breath.

The person below is one of Han Li's grandsons, who is relatively capable and is in charge of the newly developed elixir business of the Han family, as well as collecting elixir recipes.

"This matter is absolutely true. Grandson dare not deceive the Patriarch."

Han Shigao said cautiously. In recent years, he felt that his grandfather's authority had become increasingly heavy, making him, a person with considerable power in the Han family, feel uncomfortable. If it weren't for the importance of this matter, which was related to his future position, Han Shigao would not want to meet his grandfather.

Han Li waved his hand, and Han Shigao retreated, leaving only Han Li alone in the hall, lost in thought.

Should he go out for a walk?
