Before I knew it, more than a month had passed.
Life in the core area is still peaceful.
The fighting in the cheap area gradually subsided.
It’s not that the war between the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Villa has ended, but that both sides have tacitly moved the battlefield to the border.
No more petty fights.
No more testing each other.
Start a head-on confrontation.
The main force on the battlefield has also changed from the middle stage of Qi Refining at the beginning to the late stage of Qi Refining now.
The level of cruelty increases exponentially.
But none of these had much impact on Chen An.
He is an alchemist and all he needs to do is stay at home and make pills.
At most, the supply of pills has increased a bit.
This day.
Chen An had just finished refining a furnace of pills.
very tired.
Sit on the ground with your back against the wall and rest.
A thought came to my mind.
Open the panel to view personal properties.
【Name: Chen An】
[Cultivation: Fifth level of Qi Refining]
[Wealth: 502 low-grade spirit stones]
[Alchemy: First-level Advanced (666/2500)]
[Spiritual Sense: First-Level Advanced (589/2500)]
[Gold Finger: Proficient (423/500)]
[Sleep-aiding technique: proficient (108/500)]
[Spouse: Song Huaying, Gu Xinyue]
[Descendants: Chen Yuejian]
Chen An read it carefully from top to bottom.
All attributes have been significantly improved.
The sleep-inducing technique has reached a proficient level.
The golden finger also immediately broke through to the next level.
As for his cultivation level, it has not changed at all and he is still at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
This system is good in every way except that it cannot directly improve your cultivation.
Chen An was worried about this.
Now the bamboo forest is becoming more and more messy.
No matter how strong your spiritual awareness is or how high your attainments in alchemy are, as long as your cultivation is not high, your life will always be at the mercy of others.
"It seems that we need to speed up the process of capturing Wen Zhiyun."
“Perhaps, when my daughter grows up and begins to embark on the path of cultivation, I, as a father, will be able to gain some feedback from her.”
"After all, if I can get feedback from my wives and concubines, then I should be able to get it from my daughter as well."
At this moment, Chen An, like his young wife Song Huaying, is looking forward to their daughter Chen Yuejian growing up quickly.
Just as he was thinking about all these, there was a sudden hurried knock on the door outside, and the excited voice of his young wife Song Huaying.
“Boom boom boom!”
"Husband, please come out and see, Xiao Yuejian has learned to walk!"
What? Learned to walk? So fast? She's only five months old.
Without thinking too much, Chen An immediately came out of the alchemy room and followed Song Huaying to the front yard.
Then we saw the tiny Chen Yuejian, who was staggering around the yard under the care of Wen Zhiyun and Gu Xinyue, with a bright smile on her little face.
It was obvious that she was very happy to learn to walk for the first time and to be able to go wherever she wanted.
“Mmmmm…”
Seeing his parents coming out of the house, Chen Yuejian immediately walked over with his short legs, mumbling something indistinctly.
[Your daughter Chen Yuejian has learned to walk, and you are rewarded with a Qi Gathering Pill. ]
Chen An just saw the prompt message pop up, and the next second he found that there was an extra pill in his hand out of thin air.
He looked down and saw a small light purple pill.
There was a faint purple aura lingering on the surface, emitting a light fragrance.
“Mmmmm…”
Chen Yuejian walked up to her father, reached out and grabbed his trouser legs to steady herself, then slightly raised her chubby face and looked at her father, as if asking for a hug.
Chen An picked up his daughter and swung her back and forth, making her giggle.
"Don't shake the child like that. It's not good for the child's health!"
Wen Zhiyun came over and said with a sullen look on her face, just like Chen Yue meeting her mother.
Chen An ignored her, handed his giggling daughter to his pretty wife, and hurried back to the alchemy room.
The system just rewarded him with a Qi Gathering Pill, and he couldn't wait to eat it to see how effective the pill was and how much it could improve his cultivation.
Looking at Chen An's leaving back and thinking of his lukewarm attitude towards her just now, Wen Zhiyun felt very uncomfortable.
She knew that Chen An was playing hard to get, but unfortunately she fell for it.
…
In the alchemy room.
Chen An found a place to sit down.
Without thinking, he swallowed the Qi Gathering Pill in his hand.
The pill melted in the mouth and turned into warm currents flowing throughout the body.
Wherever it passes, blood vessels dilate and pores enlarge.
In an instant.
The whole body seemed to have become a black hole.
A powerful suction force arises out of nowhere from the inside out, sucking the spiritual energy contained in the air into the body through the pores.
Suddenly, so much spiritual energy was forced into him, and Chen An felt as if every cell in his body was being cut by a knife, and the pain made him gasp.
About an hour later.
An eye-catching prompt message popped up before my eyes.
[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 6]
“Huh~”
Looking at the prompt message in front of him, Chen An let out a deep breath, a smile of relief on his face.
Breakthrough.
After taking one Qi Gathering Pill, he directly broke through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining.
It turns out that raising children is more important than giving birth.
When my daughter was born, she was simply given a sleep-aiding technique as a reward.
And once you learn to walk, you will be rewarded with Qi Gathering Pills.
Later on, you will learn to speak, learn to draw qi into the body, and go through various learning stages.
Chen An was looking forward to the reward at that time.
The requirements are not high, just one Qi Gathering Pill will be enough each time.
"Husband, come out to eat!"
The voice of my young wife Song Huaying came from outside the door.
Chen An got up and went to open the door, but he did not rush to the hall to eat. Instead, he pulled his little wife outside the door in.
It has been a long time since I taught my little wife how to make pills. Now that I am in the alchemy room, I will teach her and improve her alchemy skills.
About an incense stick of time later.
[Alchemy experience +3]
[Alchemy experience +3]
[Alchemy experience +3]
"Ying'er, which of these three methods of refining pills do you prefer?"
"My husband, I like them all."
“That’s too perfunctory.”
"If I have to say which one I prefer, it would probably be the conventional way of refining pills. But sometimes when I get tired of the conventional way, I want to try a different way of refining pills."
"Then I will teach you some alternative ways of refining the elixir in the future."
"Ying'er is looking forward to it. She will study hard and not let her husband down."
"Let's go and have dinner first. I will teach you how to make the elixir in the evening."
After saying that, the two wiped the sweat off their bodies, tidied up their clothes that they had just unbuttoned due to the heat, and quickly got up and went to the hall to eat.
Come to the hall.
As soon as Chen An sat down at the table, Wen Zhiyun, who was sitting opposite him, said in surprise:
"You made a breakthrough?"
"Yes, I broke through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the sixth level of Qi Refining."
Chen An said calmly.
Wen Zhiyun found it unbelievable.
She still remembers that when she first met Chen An last year, he was just a low-level cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining.
But now, in the blink of an eye, his cultivation has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.
It is only one step away from the late stage of Qi Refining.
In just one short year, he achieved two breakthroughs in a row.
What kind of cultivation speed is this? ! Wen Zhiyun couldn't calm down for a long time.
Seeing this, Chen An thought this was a good opportunity to trick her, so he said to her, "Friend Wen, I told you before."
"Let nature take its course and marry and have children, and don't suppress your emotions too much. This is the correct way to practice."
"The reason why you have been able to reach the eighth level of Qi Refining after practicing so hard is simply because you have a high talent, not because of your hard work in suppressing your lust."
Is this really the case?
Wen Zhiyun was shaken.
I began to doubt whether my previous cultivation philosophy was really wrong.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Chen An didn't say anything more and started eating in silence.
…
