"And... the plants we are looking for are the same as those used by the Lin family to study scented tea!" Ji Fan smiled mysteriously.

"Oh?" Lin Xiwu's fingers holding the wine glass trembled slightly. Although the details were small, Ji Fan still captured them.

Based on the analysis of previous rumors, Ji Fan has determined that the Lin family needs new types of scented tea to wake up the market.

"Have you also decided to enter the scented tea industry? Or are there other uses?" Lin Xiwu asked.

"It's also scented tea!" Ji Fan said it directly without hiding anything.

Lin Xiwu sighed, drank all the wine in his mouth, then stood up and was about to leave the tavern.

"Wait for me at the foot of Black Mountain tomorrow morning. I will take you up the mountain. However, you'd better not have too many expectations for this."

Naturally, he was referring to keeping the spiritual power of scented tea alive.

After that, he stepped out of the tavern. The guard beside the door stood up and followed his footsteps, and the group disappeared into the thick fog.

"It seems he thinks we will fail!" Xiao Jian smiled.

"Aren't you confident?" Ji Fan asked the waiter for two glasses of wine and handed one to Xiao Jian.

"No one is safe in this situation, but I believe in you unconditionally!" Xiao Jian picked up the wine glass, glanced at Ji Fan, and smiled slightly, "I haven't had a drink with you for a long time."

The sound of clinking wine glasses came to mind, and the two of them put other things behind their minds and enjoyed the delicious wine.

After drinking to their heart's content, Ji Fan and Xiao Jian came out of the tavern.

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Jian asked when he saw Ji Fan was silent.

"I'm wondering if I should cooperate with Lin Xiwu," Ji Fan said.

"He is a good person, and it is not impossible to cooperate with him, but we need to get a clear answer from him."

Ji Fan nodded, then smiled mysteriously, "As we enter the mountain, he should respond soon. After all, the Lin family is being forced more and more tightly by the Hu family."

"By the way, I need to prepare something before going up the mountain. You should know the inn first!"

Xiao Jian nodded.

After Ji Fan said goodbye to Xiao Jian, he found a medicinal material store.

The quality of the medicinal materials here is much better than that in Wanjian Sect, and it may be that the black town is close to Heishan, a place rich in medicinal materials, and there are many medicinal materials stores around it.

Prices have also been affected accordingly, and there is no one superpower with multiple powers, or a monopoly situation.

Ji Fan spent a small amount of spiritual crystals to buy what he wanted.

Back at the inn, Xiao Jian was discussing with Lingfei Xuanting what to prepare.

"By the way, Xuan Ting, do you mind if we use your results to cooperate with the Lin family?" Ji Fan glanced at Xuan Ting and interjected.

Xuanting smiled slightly, "When I came here, I realized that scented tea is not a secret at all. The core of our formula is to store spiritual power in scented tea! Whether this can be successful depends on whether your method can absorb the spiritual plants.

The spiritual power is sealed up."

"Then...if he passes the test, we will cooperate with him. We still have to focus more on practice, and it is impossible to gather a lot of people under our command to run this scented tea business." Ji Fan replied

.

"It's up to you." Xuan Ting nodded. Xiao Jian and Ling Fei didn't have any objections. Both of them had a good impression of Lin Xiwu.

After the three of them made their decision, Ji Fan would prepare to refine the auxiliary supplies for sealing spiritual power.

He sat down by the window, and then took out the materials, medicinal materials and a copper stove from the storage bag, which he bought from the medicine store.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Jianlingfei and the others were curious and came closer.

"Refining some things for going up the mountain." Ji Fan poured spiritual power into a small opening in the copper furnace, and a flame instantly ignited in the center of the copper furnace.

This kind of copper furnace is the simplest copper furnace. There is a small transformation spiritual array inside, which can transform spiritual power into flame for use by cultivators.

Refining medicinal materials to extract useful components can be learned as long as you have enough mental energy.

Although Ji Fan had never learned this before, he had studied chemistry for a period of time out of interest and studied simple methods of obtaining extracts from plants before traveling through time, so he was not without any experience.

Ji Fan threw a medicinal plant on hand into the copper furnace. After the ingredients were almost extracted, he threw several other medicinal plants in order.

After a while, the impurities in the medicinal materials burned out and all ingredients turned into liquid. Ji Fan stopped and removed the supply of spiritual power.

As the temperature in the copper furnace drops little by little, the liquid components eventually condense into very small crystals.

From a distance, it looks no different than powder.

"It's finally done." Ji Fan breathed a long sigh of relief, "It depends on the results of the subsequent tests."

"What is the use of this thing? Is it related to storing spiritual power?" Lingfei came up, dipped a little with his finger, wrinkled his nose and smelled it.

"Yeah! It's an indispensable additive!" Ji Fan casually put away the copper stove.

"Auxiliary? What is that?" Questions popped up in the minds of the three Lingfei people at the same time.

"Well... just like the sword in the hand, it can help improve the combat power of cultivators." Ji Fan thought for a moment, "Yes, that's pretty much what it means."

Lingfei spread her hands helplessly, still not knowing what Ji Fan meant.

The next morning, the four of them made simple preparations and left the inn.

According to the agreed location, they found Lin Xiwu easily.

This guy looked a little nervous and even walked around in circles, but after seeing Ji Fan and the others, he hurriedly came over.

"It turns out there are Lin Fei and other beautiful ladies." Lin Xiwu said with a smile.

Lin Xiwu's words immediately made Lingfei energized, and she greeted Lin Xiwu happily. Xuanting was a little embarrassed.

After Lin Xiwu said hello to Lingfei, he came to Xuan Ting and took the initiative to introduce himself, telling Xuan Ting that he had done a sword test on Ji Fan.

Now Xuanting suddenly remembered.

Xuan Ting glanced at him apologetically, "I'm Xuan Ting, I'm sorry to trouble you this time."

Lin Xiwu hurriedly said, "No trouble, no trouble. When I help you, I'm also helping myself."

Ji Fan's heart trembled, and he glanced at Xiao Jian calmly, and he read the same thought in Xiao Jian's eyes.

Lin Xiwu was a little anxious, guessing that the current environment of the Lin family was worse than imagined.

Ji Fan pretended not to notice anything, and then the four of them followed Lin Xiwu's team up the mountain.

"Follow closely to prevent falling behind. If you fall behind in the mountains and don't know the road, you will get lost and it will be difficult to survive!" Lin Xiwu walked in front, and his voice fell through the thick fog to Ji Fan and the other four.

ear.

"Only when you walk into this mountain can you discover the horror within it. In this thick fog, you really can't see anything except the torches and the people around you." Lingfei complained.

"So be sure to hold on to the people around you and never let go under any circumstances, otherwise you slip and fall and we might not be able to find you." Ji Fan said.

"Yeah! I'm holding on very tightly."

At this time, Lingfei's hand was fiercely inserted into Xiao Jian's waistband, pulling his waistband tightly. There is no need to emphasize the firmness.

I don't know how many hours I walked, but around afternoon, Lin Xiwu shouted to stop.

The people who were walking forward in the mist looked up and vaguely saw the light of the fire.

Affected by the heavy fog, although the effect of fire lighting was limited, it still illuminated this area.

From the burning fire and simple wooden huts, it was obvious that this was a camp.

"Our Lin family members are basically here. The range we have explored is also centered on this camp... The Hu family is on the other side." Lin Xiwu introduced.

"The Hu family is stationed on the other side of Black Mountain?" Ji Fan thought of another road he saw at the foot of the mountain.

"That's right, here in Black Town, our two families are the only ones exploring Black Mountain, and there are very few casual cultivators. After all, this place is very strange." Lin Xiwu looked at the heavy fog around him.
