Seeing this, Kang Qian did not avoid Ye Feng's gaze at all, because this medicinal formula was indeed something he had deliberately revealed to Wudang.
He just didn't expect that the people from Wudang would be so ruthless, buying up all the usable medicinal ingredients on the spot. Now, without him even needing to make a move, Ye Feng wouldn't be able to succeed!
Beside him, seeing Ye Feng's extremely displeased expression, Yuan Tu also revealed a cold smile, because this plan was exactly what he had proposed.
"Heh, kid, without the medicinal ingredients, I don't believe you can still succeed like this!!" Yuan Tu secretly chuckled as he looked at Ye Feng. The aphrodisiac pill was just the first step; the matter of medicinal ingredients was the real killer move.
As expected, upon hearing this, Ye Feng's expression completely darkened. If it were just the aphrodisiac pill, he could still try, but now that there weren't even any medicinal ingredients to try with, this was indeed a death sentence for him.
However, the more critical the situation, the more Ye Feng knew he couldn't rush. Therefore, he immediately began to think of a remedy.
First, he considered buying from another place. However, according to He Shasha's information, there was only Dan Dao Ge, a single medicinal ingredient merchant, near Dan Dao Sect.
Other places were either too far away or did not have complete medicinal ingredients. Even if he could make it in time, he might not be able to buy enough medicinal ingredients.
"In that case, I can only choose alternative medicinal ingredients with the same efficacy. First, the main ingredient, Yang Ling Hua. Those with the same efficacy include Chi Yan Cao, Xue Huang Gao, and Hong Mang Guo."
Ye Feng immediately asked He Shasha to purchase these medicinal ingredients. However, what made Ye Feng's expression turn ugly was that the people from Wudang seemed to have anticipated his thoughts, and had bought up all of these medicinal ingredients as well.
"Damn it, they're not leaving me any chance at all!" Ye Feng's expression became extremely grim. For the first time, he felt helpless.
However, just as he was about to give up, he suddenly thought of something and exclaimed in shock, "Hmm? That's right, I have medicinal ingredients of this attribute myself!"
Ye Feng suddenly remembered the精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu) he had obtained in the寂魂地 (Ji Hun Di) before. When he and Luo Bing Shuang went to Sui Ling Island, they had encountered a精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu).
According to the records of the寂魂地 (Ji Hun Di), consuming this精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu) not only quickly replenished a cultivator's spiritual energy but also made them energetic and had aphrodisiac effects.
"Looking at it this way, the精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu) indeed has a similar effect to Yang Ling Hua. Perhaps I can try using it!!"
Ye Feng thought to himself. In fact, the medicinal ingredients used in any pill are not fixed. The reason for choosing a specific one is entirely because the combination of these ingredients is the most cost-effective.
Therefore, all he needed to do next was to find the secondary ingredients that paired well with the精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu). It wasn't impossible for him to refine it successfully!
Moreover, the medicinal effect of the精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu) was equivalent to a second-tier spiritual medicine. Just a small amount could be comparable to Yang Ling Hua, which laid the foundation for him to try multiple times.
However, although the main ingredient was resolved, Ye Feng didn't have many medicinal ingredients left. Apart from the second-tier spiritual medicine, Qing Ling Guo, which he obtained in the ancient space, he didn't have many medicinal ingredients on him.
Therefore, it was unrealistic to find a large number of medicinal ingredients to refine the aphrodisiac pills!
"Eh, that's right. Since the main ingredient can be refined with精灵鱼 (Jing Ling Yu), why can't the secondary ingredients be replaced with other things? I don't believe you can block all of these things!!"
Ye Feng suddenly thought of something and immediately instructed He Shasha to start acting.
Seeing this, Yuan Tu, not knowing what he was planning, immediately sneered, "Kid, it's useless. All the medicinal ingredients you can think of have been bought by Senior Brother Ming Yu. You won't be able to find the medicinal ingredients to refine the aphrodisiac pills. I advise you to give up early!"
Hearing this, Ye Feng said confidently, "Heh, you don't need to worry about that. Wudang can't cover the sky with one hand in Huaxia!"
"Hmph, stubborn fool. If that's the case, then I'll see if you can still be so arrogant later!" Yuan Tu snorted coldly, naturally not believing him, and simply thought Ye Feng was being stubborn.
Seeing this, Ye Feng didn't explain anything to him, and just waited quietly. Soon, He Shasha returned.
As soon as they met, He Shasha looked at Ye Feng with confusion and asked, "I've bought everything you asked for, but are you sure these things are really useful?"
As she spoke, He Shasha threw the spatial ring in her hand to Ye Feng. At this moment, even the intelligent He Shasha couldn't quite understand Ye Feng's actions.
The reason was simple: what Ye Feng asked her to buy was the seafood products from Haishén Company!
However, in her eyes, weren't these just ordinary seafood? Even if they contained a little spiritual energy, they shouldn't be able to refine pills, right?
However, how could she know that the products of Haishén Company contained more than just a little spiritual energy? The spiritual energy they contained was already comparable to ordinary medicinal ingredients.
What's more, some of them had already reached the concentration of ordinary first-tier spiritual medicines. Therefore, Ye Feng's plan for today was to use these seafood as secondary ingredients for refining the aphrodisiac pills!
However, Yuan Tu and the surrounding crowd had never seen such a scene. Seeing that Ye Feng did not choose to buy medicinal ingredients but instead bought countless seemingly ordinary seafood, they all burst into laughter.
"Haha, kid, what are you doing? You're not thinking of refining pills with these ordinary seafood, are you? Are you sure you're not out of your mind?"
"Exactly, kid. I've heard of refining pills with medicinal ingredients, but this is the first time I've heard of refining pills with ordinary seafood. Are you trying to make us die laughing?"
"Yes, kid, you're really too daring to think of this..."
Everyone burst into laughter, looking at Ye Feng as if he were an idiot. They had seen imbeciles before, but this was the first time they had seen such an imbecile.
Because if these ordinary seafood could be refined into pills, then alchemists would be as common as dirt, as compared to the price of medicinal ingredients, this seafood was practically dirt cheap!
However, hearing this, Ye Feng coldly smiled and said, "Ordinary seafood? Heh, that's not necessarily true. These are special products from my Haishén Company, and their effects may not be weaker than your medicinal ingredients!"
Before the spiritual energy had recovered, the products of Haishén Company could treat various diseases and were deeply loved by people. Now that the spiritual energy had recovered, their effects would only be better!!
However, no one believed him. They all laughed and said, "Heh, Haishén Company, I've heard of it, but do you think it's still the time before the spiritual energy recovered? Your seafood has long been obsolete!"
"Exactly, your seafood is at most effective for ordinary people, and it doesn't have much effect on cultivators, let alone pills. Kid, I think you should give up early!"
"That's right, kid. Who do you think you are? You want to refine pills with just some ordinary seafood? You're dreaming..."
Listening to everyone's mockery, Ye Feng remained silent, because this was just his guess. He was not sure if these seafood could indeed be refined into pills.
However, at this point, he had no other choice and could only try his best.
Soon, Ye Feng became immersed in the refining process, and as he continued to try, he quickly discovered many different aspects...
