Update at 12:00 PM daily.
Shi Xuan, a Nascent Soul Pill Master from another world, transmigrated into a cultivation trash with five-spirit roots. Her original top-tier single fire spirit root...
After all, Xiao Leng was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator before he was injured, so he quickly figured it out.
Shi Xuan took out the Four Symbols Pill that she had prepared in advance. It was a pale golden pill, very beautiful in her hand. She held it in her palm and looked at it, then sighed, "I still feel I haven't collected enough."
"Well, you can add more." Xiao Leng no longer cared about how much money she owed.
"Forget it," Shi Xuan said, "Wang Laosan will make up the rest of the bet for you."
Wang Laosan: ...
Why are you mentioning me again?
"Hmph, as long as you can really cure the damaged dantian, I, Wang Laosan, will keep my word. I've packed everything for you. I didn't even set up a stall today, so don't come back saying it's no good later!"
"That would be perfect, everyone here can be a witness." He seemed to distrust Wang Laosan, which made him so angry that he pounded his chest.
The golden Four Symbols Pill entered Xiao Leng's mouth and immediately turned into specks of golden light, merging into Xiao Leng's bloodline and giving him some power.
Xiao Leng immediately followed Shi Xuan's instructions and began to circulate the incantation, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into his body. He then guided the spiritual energy towards his dantian, finally gathering it around the dantian. He dared not relax for a moment, because once he stopped circulating the incantation, his dantian would not be able to hold any spiritual energy at all, and the spiritual energy that had been painstakingly gathered would dissipate.
Shi Xuan was also very focused at this moment. She first released her divine sense to explore the way, and then followed with her spiritual power, gathering the medicinal power that had entered Xiao Leng's body in his dantian.
The golden medicinal power formed a net that completely enveloped Xiao Leng's dantian. He immediately felt pain and burning in his abdomen, as if he had been placed in a furnace.
Shi Xuan used his divine sense to separate the two spiritual energies. The inner layer of Xiao Leng's dantian, mixed with the golden medicinal power and his own spiritual power, interacted and merged together under the pressure of Shi Xuan's outer spiritual power and the effect of the Four Symbols Pill.
The reshaping power of the Four Symbols Pill was fully unleashed under the immense pressure. Xiao Leng felt as if her dantian had melted, becoming a flowing liquid, yet she still felt it was there.
The pressure continued, and Shi Xuan began to feel the pain of excessive spiritual energy expenditure again, but this was a critical moment, and the pressure could not be stopped.
Shi Xuan took another painkiller.
Seeing Xiao Leng's pained expression, the onlookers became even more indignant at the swindler's actions.
"Isn't this just making things difficult for people? They're trying to scam spirit stones and even kill people!"
"It's only because of Xiao Leng, otherwise we definitely wouldn't let her do whatever she wants!"
"Let's see what she's up to. I never expected this swindler to go on like this."
"I think she's quite presentable, but she doesn't seem to have it easy herself."
"How could a con artist have it easy? Of course, she's putting on a very convincing act."
...
After more than half an hour, Shi Xuan finally managed to neutralize the effects of the medicine on him. Withdrawing her hand, she looked at Xiao Leng, who was still slumped on the ground, and said, "I'm not finished treating him yet. I'll come back at the same time tomorrow. Don't try to use your spiritual power before I come. Just stay here."
Xiao Leng nodded weakly. Although he was still weak, he could feel changes in his body, and they were for the better.
Under the influence of the Four Symbols Elixir, his dantian has been more than half reshaped; it is now only relatively weak and thin.
Seeing that the round-faced swindler was about to leave again, the onlookers were bursting with curiosity and couldn't resist anymore.
"He's leaving again? He's been treated for two days already, and Xiao Leng doesn't seem to have changed at all. What if he runs away if you don't come tomorrow?" someone in the crowd asked.
Shi Xuan glanced at the speaker and said, "No way, you haven't even heard of my name, Round Face? I can defeat even Iron Blade and Ling Yun, so why would I run away?"
The man frowned. "You won unfairly!"
"Just tell me whether you won or not," Shi Xuan said, swaying his chin arrogantly.
The man gritted his teeth, unable to speak. Regardless of how he won, he had won.
Shi Xuan then said, "I have another match tonight. Do you want to bet on me to win?"
Before the other person could speak, another person jumped out and shouted, "Don't mislead others! I just checked the tournament marker. Your opponent today is Qinglong, who is at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining! You won the first two matches with such difficulty. How can you possibly win against Qinglong this time!"
"It's actually the Azure Dragon!"
"It is said that he has been suppressing his cultivation level for the sake of the competition, otherwise he would have already reached the Foundation Establishment stage."
"You're only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, you have absolutely no chance of winning against a Great Perfection Azure Dragon!"
"You're really lucky. If you were facing Iron Blade again today, I might have bet on you. But against Azure Dragon, forget it. In the face of absolute strength, luck doesn't matter."
"Qinglong is unmatched below the Qi Refining stage; he has never lost a duel since he came!"
...
The crowd was chattering amongst themselves, but the common thread was that no one had a good opinion of Shi Xuan.
Shi Xuan wasn't annoyed. She smiled confidently and said, "Never lost before? Then he's going to lose today!"
The onlookers were collectively speechless. Putting aside skill, if it were just a matter of sheer presence, she might actually win. Look at that fearless attitude—truly, a newborn calf unafraid of a tiger!
After Shi Xuan finished speaking, she walked towards the arena. Behind her, everyone could only shake their heads helplessly as they watched her graceful departure.
Just then, Xiao Leng, who had been sitting on the ground, suddenly spoke up: "Third Brother, help me bet on Round Face to win..."
As he spoke, he laboriously pulled out one hundred mid-grade spirit stones.
Wang Laosan snorted coldly, "She has harmed you so much, and you still bet on her to win? You might as well bet on the Azure Dragon with these spirit stones."
"I feel great," Xiao Leng explained.
But he didn't look any good, and people just assumed he was bewitched by the round-faced man and refused to believe what he said.
Wang Laosan looked at him and thought to himself, "Forget it, he might as well do whatever he wants."
So, despite being somewhat reluctant, he still took the spirit stone and made the trip for him.
Just as Wang Laosan entered the betting area, Shi Xuan finished placing his bet and came out.
The two brushed past each other. Wang Laosan went inside to place his bet, and casually asked the cultivator who was handling his paperwork, "How many spirit stones did that round-faced guy who just came in bet?"
Seeing that he had only bet one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, the cultivator wasn't very friendly. "Guests' information is confidential; how can I reveal it so easily? Besides, would you believe me if I said she bet ten thousand high-grade spirit stones?"
Wang Laosan shook his head, assuming the cultivator was a fool, and happily returned to the trading area.
After a while, they became curious about the round-faced contestant's outcome, so they called a few acquaintances from the trading area to watch from the free stands next to the arena.
At this point, Shi Xuan had already entered the venue.
The opponent in this match is the legendary Azure Dragon, who is said to be unbeatable in the Qi Refining group.
As soon as Qinglong entered the arena, cheers erupted throughout the venue, and some people shouted his name. His popularity in this arena was indeed evident.
Therefore, it's quite obvious to the audience who would win in the contest between the Azure Dragon and the Round Face.
