Chapter 172: Refining the Shape-shifting Pill

There were many rumors outside, but Mu Qi in the secret realm had no idea about it.

At this time, Min Haojue was hugging her and crying, which made her feel inexplicably guilty. Did he go too far just now?

But, it is not without gain.

Isn't this kid quite good at fighting? She has never seen him so powerful.

"Qiqi, why are you so mean..."

Mu Qi was held by him, and could only reach out and pat his back, saying cunningly, "I was testing whether you have the ability to protect yourself. Look at you, you can't even beat me, but you dare to come to this secret place full of dangers, are you looking for a fight?"

Min Haojue bent down and buried his head in her neck, shaking his head, "I came here with my fellow disciples, and we separated as soon as we came in."

Mu Qi was helpless, so he pushed him away after thinking for a while, took out the heart-protecting mirror from the space and handed it to him, "Put it on, it will save your life."

He took out an extra crossbow and put it on him, "Come, I'll teach you how to use it."

Min Haojue looked at the two magic weapons she gave him curiously. After putting on the heart-protection goggles, he no longer cared about crying and listened attentively to her explanation of how to use them.

Mu Qi finally felt relieved after confirming that he knew it.

Now, looking at the delicious Min Haojue who had returned to his original appearance, she swallowed unconsciously.

"Juejue..." she asked softly.

Those words made Min Haojue blush gradually, "Okay."

The two entered a cave not far away. Mu Qi released the defensive formation given by Jing'e that even a cultivator in the fusion stage could not break through, and opened the barrier to cover the cave.

After making sure it was safe, Min Haojue kissed her hard as if to vent his anger.

"Qiqi, I'm not a second..."

"Well...I know you're not."

"Really? Better than all of them?"

Mu Qi paused for a moment, "Yeah...that's right."

Someone's weather suddenly turned cloudy and sunny.

…

After an unknown amount of time, the sound gradually died down.

Min Haojue hugged Mu Qi tightly.

His voice was still panting and slightly low as he said, "Qiqi, don't scare me like this again. I can't stand it."

"Okay, if you don't want to scare me, then don't scare me."

…

The two people who had not seen each other for many days continued.

On the third day, the sound gradually subsided.

Min Haojue looked at the person sleeping in his arms, and his heart felt as sweet as honey.

His Qiqi, he really found her.

Finally, I can avenge my previous shame.

Mu Qi woke up again and was a little dazed.

My lips were pecked, "Qiqi, you're awake." The voice sounded like I was in a good mood.

"Xiao Juejue, you are awesome!" I still have to praise you, and I hope you can be as awesome as me next time.

Min Haojue smiled shyly, "As long as you like it."

"What time is it?"

"It's just dawn outside, and you've been sleeping all day and all night."

Mu Qi stood up immediately, "Ah my! We came to the secret realm to gain experience, why are we just sleeping?"

"It's okay, Qiqi. Isn't the secret realm open for a month? There's still more than half a month left." Min Haojue said.

"That can't be wasted." Mu Qi said as he quickly stood up, put away the defensive barrier and left the cave.

After searching for spiritual plants for a whole day, they took Min Haojue and did not make enemies, and kept a low profile.

At night, Mu Qi put out the defensive barrier and took out the pill he got from the fox, and studied the illusion pill with Min Haojue.

The two of them talked to each other and soon analyzed the spiritual plants that needed to be matched.

Coincidentally, Mu Qi had gathered all the spiritual plants in the center of the secret realm by herself a few days ago. She had all the spiritual plants needed for the pill recipe, so she refined a furnace of them on the spot.

Min Haojue looked at it with great envy. In fact, those with fire spiritual roots have more advantages in refining pills. They can refine pills at any time and have more accurate control over the temperature.

He seldom refines top-grade elixirs because his control over the temperature is not perfect. Only an extremely skilled elixir master can refine top-grade elixirs, which is something he cannot compare to Mu Qi.

But generally speaking, alchemists with fire spiritual roots are not necessarily stronger than alchemists with wood spiritual roots.

Wood Spirit Root Pill Cultivators are naturally friendly to spiritual plants, and often times the process of tempering can easily let them feel when the tempering is perfect.

In short, each has its own advantages, and it really depends on talent.

Mu Qi's first furnace ended in failure, and the product was a black mass. However, the two were not discouraged, as they thought that failure in refining was normal, and continued to figure out the reasons for the failure and make improvements.

While Mu Qi was refining the second furnace, Min Haojue was concentrating on researching the Anti-Demon Pill. He wanted to learn Mu Qi's spirit of dedication and did not want to be like other alchemists who only knew how to refine existing pill formulas and did not know how to innovate.

With Mu Qi's extreme concentration, she finally managed to refine the Shape-shifting Pill the night before leaving the secret realm.

She casually took the Pansheng vine and tied up a tiger. After feeding it a pill, it instantly changed into the lion that Mu Qi wanted. She smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, and let the tiger go back, not caring how frightened the other animals would be when the lion roared like a tiger.

After making sure the pills were safe, he brought Mu Baibai and Mu Jinjin out.

Patting the two little beasts on the head, Mu Qi held up the pill and said gently, "You two have worked hard to grow spiritual plants during this period. You can come out after taking this pill."

Mu Baibai looked at the pill and sniffed it, then secretly glanced at Mu Qi. Don't think it doesn't know about the last time that the fox lost its fur due to being fed too much.

Mu Qi knew what the dog was thinking at a glance, and patted its head, "This pill is guaranteed to be safe! There will be no side effects!"

Mu Baibai ate it half-believingly, and then with a thought, he immediately transformed into a little tiger.

Mu Qi specially conjured up a water mirror to take a picture of it, and saw that it really had turned into a majestic little tiger. It swung its tail and raised its chin proudly, looking very satisfied!

Seeing this, Mu Jinjin also fluttered his mouth excitedly, and Mu Qi smiled and threw a pill into its mouth.

But this time, after waiting for a while, there was no change in Mu Jinjin.

It made a bitter face and said, "Master, why is this medicine useless to dragons?"

Mu Qi was silent for a moment, "What are you going to transform into?"

"Rabbit!" said Mu Jinjin.

Mu Qi: “…”

"You can only transform into a snake! The object you transform into can only be roughly the same as your form!"

Mu Jinjin glanced at Mu Qi resentfully, as if saying: Master, your level is not good enough.

Mu Qi: “…”

In the end, Mu Jinjin obediently transformed into a Teng Snake.

Min Haojue looked on with curiosity. He poked the head of Mu Jinjin, who had transformed into a Teng Snake. The scales on his tentacles were cold and hard, so he retracted his hand.

Well, just looking changed.

During this period of time, perhaps because the secret realm is too large, Mu Qi has not met the other people.

Soon it was time to leave the secret realm the next day, and in the blink of an eye they were teleported to the entrance of the secret realm.

There were huge crowds of people when we went in, but when we came out there were obviously fewer people. The world of cultivating immortals is so cruel.

She walked to a place with fewer people to see if Yue You and the others could see her coming.
