Yang Fan is still not sure whether the formula he deduced is correct. The only way is to see if he can refine a third-level beast essence pill.
Regardless of whether the formula was correct or not, Huang Jintao helped Yang Fan open the door to learning alchemy in advance.
Purchasing elixir residues, spiritual fire talismans, and spiritual power talismans perfectly solved their dilemma of insufficient levels.
In particular, Huang Jintao's spirit of not being content with the ordinary made Yang Fan admire this guy.
After all, there are only a few who can achieve the ultimate goal, and most of the boundary breakers can achieve the first and second goals, which is already a blessing.
For the Scavenger's boundary breaker, it is too difficult to improve its strength.
But Huang Jintao has not given up. He has been using another way to improve his strength.
This alone is enough to make Yang Fan look at him differently.
Not to mention his previous performance in killing the Black Turtle of Xihu, proving that he is a trustworthy friend.
The fact that he was able to tell himself and Shen Yanhong about his plan, his findings, and also gave the remains of the elixir to Yang Fan was enough to show that he had regarded the two as friends.
"Second level, I don't know when we can reach the second level." Huang Jintao suddenly sighed, "These two kinds of talismans are not cheap. One piece costs 100,000, and fifty pieces is 5 million! I don't know.
If you go in, if you can’t research it, you’ll lose everything.”
Shen Yanhong patted Huang Jintao's shoulder and said, "If you can take the spirit meat of the alien beasts out this time, you won't have to worry about money for the time being."
It was late at night, there was ice and snow outside, the wind was biting, and the beating bonfire maintained the temperature inside the cave.
Huang Jintao was still studying, Yang Fan was practicing, and Shen Yanhong and Liuli went to bed first.
After a few hours, Yang Fan fell asleep and Huang Jintao stayed on duty.
At three o'clock in the morning, Huang Jintao woke up Yang Fan, and the two of them changed shifts.
Yang Fan sat alone at the entrance of the cave, looking at the world covered in ice and snow outside the cave. He seemed to feel that the temperature was showing signs of rising.
At six o'clock in the morning, Yang Fan woke up Huang Jintao and Shen Yanhong, picked up Liuli and walked out of the cave.
Before, it was still a scene of ice and snow, but what is incredible is that in the morning, the ice and snow had melted, and the plants in the mountains and forests were also revealed.
The temperature difference between day and night in Ganshan Yunhu Lake is really too big.
Yang Fan took a deep breath and felt the fresh air.
After being blocked by ice and snow all night, the plants finally welcomed the sunshine. The whole forest suddenly became prosperous, and the smell of various plants came to our face.
The fragrance of that kind of plant is mixed with the earthy smell of earth, which is a smell you can't enjoy in the city.
"Huh? It seems to be the smell of Iron Hand Green..." Yang Fan suddenly looked not far ahead.
There is no smell of strange beasts in the air, at least there should be no strange beasts nearby.
Near Iron Hand Green, there is usually Iron Hand Vine growing, and Iron Hand Vine is one of the formulas of the third-level beast spirit elixir!
Yang Fan led the two of them forward for a hundred or two hundred meters, and then he discovered patches of green iron hands.
Following the growth direction of the Iron Hand Vine, they quickly found several Iron Hand Vine.
"I'll go, there are so many iron-handed vines!" Huang Jintao was excited, "Come here and collect them, this thing costs 200,000 yuan!"
Yang Fan followed two companions to collect Iron Hand Vine.
The three of them collected nearly three kilograms of iron hand vines and continued exploring into the mountains.
There are many kinds of plants on this mountain, including some medicinal materials. After walking around the mountain for a long time, they have collected a large number of spiritual plants.
Later, the three of them made six large bamboo baskets with water bamboo strips, two for each person, one on the chest and one on the back. They put the flesh, flesh and spirit plants of strange animals and plants in the baskets.
"This is the material world, and it truly lives up to its reputation!" Huang Jintao said excitedly.
At this moment, the gentle and mysterious female voice sounded.
"Seven types of spiritual plants have been discovered, and the exploration progress is 30%."
The three of them were stunned for a moment after hearing this.
In most of the day, they explored 30%, and it would take at most three days to complete the first level goal.
"The progress of the exploration of this island seems to be related to the discovery of spiritual plants." Shen Yanhong said, "According to this ratio, it means that there are still fourteen kinds of spiritual plants that have not been discovered."
Yang Fan nodded, "We have enough time. Anyway, the supervisor said that we are not allowed to leave the other world early. Let's explore slowly."
Huang Jintao said very regretfully, "Damn it, there are so many resources here, but we can only bring out forty pieces of materials, what a waste!"
In the evening, the temperature began to drop rapidly, and the three of them did not dare to stay outside and returned to the original cave.
After lighting up the fire, Huang Jintao and Shen Yanhong were ready to start refining the spiritual flesh of the alien beasts.
"Yang Fan, don't you want to refine it?" Shen Yanhong looked at Yang Fan in confusion.
Yang Fan smiled slightly, "My physical body has reached its peak."
"Have you reached the second peak?" Huang Jintao frowned, "But when we fought against the Xihu Black Turtle before, we couldn't feel it."
Shen Yanhong glared at Huang Jintao, "Don't you know that Yang Fan is weak? He doesn't want to open any pot!"
Huang Jintao suddenly shut up, and then said hurriedly, "I'm sorry, I, I forgot..."
Yang Fan didn't care, smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, you can refine it, I'll help you keep an eye on it."
Ice and snow covered the world again, and Liuli happily danced in the snow in front of the cave.
This guy eats the spirit meat of alien beasts every day, and it seems that he has fully recovered, but I don't know when he will grow up again.
"You guys have eaten more spiritual meat from alien beasts than me...but you haven't grown yet. You shouldn't be able to practice directly after you are young." Yang Fan muttered.
It is easy for foxes to be cultivated, and Liuli, who ate five elements of spiritual plants before she was born, should be stronger than her peers.
It doesn't seem impossible that you can practice cultivation after you are born.
However, Yang Fan didn't know anything about how to cultivate alien beasts, and he didn't know what conditions this guy needed to grow further.
"It won't require any spiritual power, right? I don't have the chance to come into contact with that thing now."
After thinking about it, Yang Fan thought that it would be better to let nature take its course. Anyway, now Liuli can provide him with considerable help.
On the third and fourth days, the three-person team kept wandering around the mountain, and their exploration progress reached 95% by the evening of the third day.
Here, they found many spiritual plants, a total of twenty types, and among them, they only found three materials for third-level beast spirit elixirs.
The most expensive asparagus grass can be sold for 500,000 taels, and they got a full nine kilograms.
The cave that was originally small is now filled with various spiritual plants.
A rough calculation shows that the wealth in the cave has exceeded 2 billion!
It's just that they can't take away all the materials, and may end up leaving a lot behind.
There is another problem. They went out for a day on the fourth day, and their exploration progress did not increase at all. The progress seemed to be stuck at 95%.
"We have never seen any strange beasts on this mountain. We have traveled almost everywhere on the mountain, but why is the progress always stuck at 95%?" The golden head fiddled with the fire unhappily.
This exploration of another world, except for the encounter with the Xihu Black Turtle at the beginning, can be said to be extremely smooth.
There are no strange beasts. There are a large number of spiritual plants on the mountain. Collecting them at will is like a dream.
But the problem is that if the exploration progress cannot be increased, the first level goal cannot be completed, and if the first level goal cannot be completed, they can only take away ten materials at most.
This is like guarding a mountain of gold, but when you leave, you can only take away a piece of gold ingot, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Yang Fan was also thinking, are there any places they haven't been yet?
I have obviously been to every place on the mountain.
"It can't be underwater." Shen Yanhong suddenly said, "The islands here are actually mountain peaks, and the lake water directly reaches the mountainside. In other words, part of the mountain is still underwater."
Shen Yanhong's analysis sounded reasonable at first glance. Yang Fan thought about it and said, "It's possible... let's not rush to conclusions. You can refine the spiritual flesh of the alien beasts first."
"It's rare to have such a safe place to practice. If you reach the peak of the second breakthrough as soon as possible, if we encounter strange beasts like the Xihu Black Turtle again, our chances of winning will be greater."
"You don't need to stay on guard all night, I'll just keep watch at night."
In the evening, Huang Jintao took out his small porcelain bottle again. After thinking about it, he poured out a few larger pieces of residue and said to Yang Fan, "Yang Fan, you are also very interested in alchemy. The small piece of residue from last time must be If you can’t taste anything, I’ll give you some more.”
Yang Fan smiled at Huang Jintao, "No, you can keep it for yourself."
"By the way, try to refine the spiritual flesh of the alien beasts first. The supervisor also said that there will be trained alien beasts here. It's not too late to improve the strength first and then refine the elixir."
Huang Jintao nodded, put away the medicine bottle, and began to refine the spiritual flesh of alien beasts.
Late at night, Yang Fan was alone again facing the ice and snow.
Liulipi has been sleeping for a day, and now he is curled up in Yang Fan's arms, sleeping soundly.
Yang Fan squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the ice and snow in front of him.
If he could find all the materials for the third-level beast spirit elixir as soon as possible, then he could try to refine the third-level beast spirit elixir.
It is definitely impossible to collect all the materials on this island, and the exploration here must be completed as soon as possible.
Although there are many islands in Ganshan Cloud Lake, Yang Fan has observed before that there are absolutely no "one" islands here, and many of the islands are very far away and are obscured by large clouds and fog.
There are only about seventy or eighty of them that can really be seen.
Although there are many resources on the island, once they are explored, there are basically very few left.
If there is a rare spiritual plant on a certain island, it is even less likely to be left behind.
At this time, there should be many boundary breakers who participated in the exploration, hiding everywhere, and thinking about the same problem.
Completing the exploration of the island as soon as possible will ensure that more materials can be brought out, and on the other hand, more resources can be obtained.
The snow was falling heavily, and the world that was still green during the day suddenly turned white, as if Ganshan Yunhu had two faces, one during the day and one at night.
