Chapter 31: Defeating Green Tea with Green Tea's Method
On the Yunlan Continent, Yunxi's cultivation level has advanced to another minor realm. This rocket-like cultivation speed has made countless cultivators envious.
However, Yunxi knew that she could not blindly cultivate, otherwise her mental state would not keep up with the growth of her cultivation, and she would easily encounter the tribulation of inner demons when advancing to a higher realm, which was even more difficult than the tribulation of lightning.
So once her cultivation reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm, Yunxi stopped cultivating. She recalled the several picture books she had read during this time, each one of which she wanted to finish in one go, and they seemed to be very helpful to her cultivation.
So Yunxi decided to go to the sect's mission hall to see if there were any herbs she wanted. If not, she would go to the market at the foot of the mountain to buy them. These herbs for refining mortal pills were very common and easy to collect.
As expected, the main hall of missions did not have these herbs. Usually, the gathering missions issued by the main hall are for refining pills for cultivators, so it is not surprising that the main hall of missions did not have them. Yunxi could only make a trip to the market at the foot of the mountain.
After browsing around, Yunxi quickly collected all the herbs she needed at a very cheap price. Just as she was about to return to her sect, she unexpectedly ran into an annoying person before she even reached the market entrance.
"Oh my, isn't this Senior Sister? Senior Sister, why didn't you tell Master and Senior Brothers that you came out of seclusion? They were so worried about you."
Immediately afterward, the senior brother standing next to the junior sister also began to question Yunxi: "You hurt the junior sister and then hid away. Now that you've come out of seclusion, you don't even tell everyone. You're so inconsiderate! Why didn't you reply to the message talisman I sent you?"
Yunxi was speechless. Looking at her senior brother now, he really had no trace of his former self. It was as if he had been possessed and had no intelligence whatsoever.
Moreover, cultivators have no concept of time when they cultivate; decades or even centuries pass in the blink of an eye. Not to mention her mere two months; why would she need to report to her sect? It's not like she's in seclusion.
Yunxi, who was about to lose her temper, suddenly remembered that there was a similar situation in the comic book. The female lead was not angry at all, but instead smiled and directly retorted in a villainous way, saying that she would use magic to defeat magic and green tea to defeat green tea.
So Yunxi calmed down and pretended to be innocent, saying, "Oh dear, senior brother, I didn't mean to. Last time I saw junior sister injured, I felt that I still needed to work hard to cultivate, and then I suddenly had an epiphany."
This enlightenment lasted for several days, and I directly broke through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. After the enlightenment ended, I quickly consolidated my cultivation, and accidentally broke through to the late-stage of the Golden Core realm. I originally wanted to give you all a surprise, so I didn't tell you.”
Only then did the others realize that Yunxi's cultivation aura had increased again. Among those present, only the eldest brother could still discern her cultivation level. Feeling guilty for not noticing his junior sister's increased cultivation immediately, the eldest brother no longer dared to say anything about her being ignorant.
But Yunxi wasn't finished. She then said to her junior sister, "And my junior sister already said that I didn't hurt her on purpose. In fact, it wasn't me who hurt her."
You were all too worried about Junior Sister, so you all forgot that I didn't use any magic to attack her at the time, so how could I have hurt her?
"It must be because Junior Sister was cultivating too hard and accidentally injured her body. Then, during our sparring session, it was triggered. Junior Sister should thank me for letting her discover the problem in time, right, Junior Sister?"
The junior sister forced a smile and said yes, secretly wondering why Fire Sprayer hadn't gotten angry today? And how come his cultivation had increased so much in such a short time!
Yunxi's personality is extremely fiery and she gets angry very easily, perhaps because she has a top-grade single fire spiritual root. Usually, if she says something, the fire spout will start to go berserk. Why is she so calm today?
Yunxi didn't care what they thought. In front of them, she sent another message to her master with a coquettish tone, and then went straight back to the sect. The senior and junior brothers and sisters, who had different thoughts, had no interest in shopping and soon returned to the sect as well.
Upon returning to her sect, Yunxi went to the alchemy pavilion, booked a room, and began refining pills. She refined all sorts of pills that ordinary mortals could take, such as muscle-regenerating pills, bone-healing pills, rejuvenation pills, beauty pills, youth-preserving pills, fragrance pills, vision-enhancing pills, and hair-growth pills. She stayed in the alchemy room for two days straight.
After refining the pills, Yunxi sent a message to Ningxuan, intending to trade a few more painting books.
.
Ning Xuan was overjoyed to receive Yun Xi's message, as it meant there would be more good stuff. Things from the cultivation world were quite effective, just look at the Power Pill.
Ning Xuan then gave her synopses of several novels, including those about cannon fodder cultivators, underdog cultivators' rise to power, and reborn cultivators. In the reborn one, the female protagonist picked up a man in her past life, taught him cultivation, and provided him with cultivation resources. However, the man became involved with a female cultivator from a more powerful background and even tried to steal the female protagonist's cultivation resources before leaving. This caused the female protagonist to suffer a cultivation mishap, shattering her Dao heart and ruining her cultivation, ultimately dying tragically at the feet of a mere first-tier demon beast. Given a second chance, she vowed never to pick up men indiscriminately again…
Yunxi was very interested in the last book, feeling that the male cultivator had gone too far, and wanted to see if the female protagonist would take revenge on him after her rebirth.
【I'll take all three books. What kind of elixir do you want?】
Then Yunxi posted the pills she had refined over the past two days, and kindly included their effects.
Ning Xuan actually wanted them all, but this time she could only take a maximum of 3. So she thought about it and asked for the more practical Rejuvenation Pill, which could save lives. Even if someone had stopped breathing, as long as they took it within 5 minutes of stopping, they could be saved.
The Rejuvenation Pill was so powerful that she planned to keep it for herself first and share any extras with others later.
However, Ning Xuan thought for a moment and then asked Yun Xi.
I've heard that cultivators have magical artifacts like storage bags or Qiankun bags that can hold a lot of things. Are there any that mortals can use as well?
[Yes, you can bind it with blood, and then open it without spiritual energy, but it won't be very large. If you want it, I can give it to you next time; I don't have any on hand right now.]
Ning Xuan was overjoyed that there really was one. She quickly nodded and made an appointment with Yun Xi to exchange storage bags next time. She planned to get one for her friends in the other two dimensions as well, so she asked Yun Xi to prepare three.
As a second-generation cultivator, even the Qiankun Ring used by immortal cultivators was easy for her to obtain, let alone the basic storage bag used by mortals, so Yunxi had no problem with it.
After Yunxi finished her transaction, she planned to tell her master and the others, and then go out to gain some experience. She didn't intend to stay in the sect and waste her time and energy constantly explaining to her senior brothers that she wasn't targeting her junior sister.
Ning Xuan, on the other hand, was really looking forward to her next deal with Yun Xi.
