"Junior Sister Su Qing, here are two hundred catties of dried meat, and ten mid-grade spirit stones," Senior Brother Lan said.
Two hundred catties of dried meat, one catty of dried meat costs five spirit stones, so two hundred catties would cost one thousand spirit stones.
One hundred low-grade spirit stones are equal to one mid-grade spirit stone.
As he spoke, Senior Brother Lan took out the third-tier demon crystal that Su Qing had given him and said, "Here, take this back."
Su Qing scratched her head. She had been in seclusion for a month and hadn't earned a single spirit stone yet.
"Senior Brother Lan, is this Tier 3 demon crystal worth ten mid-grade spirit stones? If not, can I owe you one?" Su Qing said somewhat embarrassedly.
Senior Brother Lan grinned and said, "Sure, Junior Sister Su Qing, if you need anything else, just come and get it from me. If you're short on cash, you can buy it on credit."
Oh dear, although Su Qing only has three spiritual roots, she cultivates so diligently and her cultivation speed is not slow. She will definitely achieve great things in the future.
Being able to buy things for her on credit, Senior Brother Lan felt he had gained a favor from Su Qing, which was a good deal!
As Su Qing came out of the cafeteria, she saw Liu Xuan heading in her direction.
"Senior Sister Liu Xuan!" Su Qing called out.
When Liu Xuan saw Su Qing, her eyes widened, and she exclaimed, "Junior Sister Su Qing, you really are at the fifth level of Qi Refining!"
Liu Xuan and Xi Ran cultivated together in the cultivation hall, and they kept an eye on Su Qing's cubicle every day. When they came out today, they found that Su Qing's cubicle was empty, and the people in the cultivation hall were talking about it in the main hall.
Liu Xuan and Xi Ran then realized that Su Qing had actually reached the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Liu Xuan and Senior Brother Lan communicated via jade token, and upon learning that Su Qing was in the cafeteria, Liu Xuan rushed over.
Even though I already knew, seeing it with my own eyes still felt unreal.
Liu Xuan remembered that it took her more than half a year to cultivate from the third level of Qi Refining to the fourth level, and then it took her a whole year to cultivate from the fourth level to the fifth level.
At that time, she thought her cultivation was progressing quite quickly, but unexpectedly...
In just one month, he progressed from the third level of Qi Refining to the fifth level!
Liu Xuan felt an overwhelming pang of sadness in her heart.
Liu Xuan also possesses the three spiritual roots of metal, wood, and fire. Su Qing's cultivation speed is so rapid that I am far inferior to her.
"Junior Sister Su Qing, Master wants you to come over after you finish your seclusion. Also, here are ten low-grade spirit stones and a bottle of first-tier spirit-restoring pills. These are what outer disciples of the sect receive every month. I've collected them for you from the disciples' office. In addition, there are ten mid-grade spirit stones and a bottle of second-tier spirit-gathering pills. These were given to you by our Jade Maiden Peak Master. Please keep them." Liu Xuan took out a bunch of things and handed them to Su Qing.
Su Qing took it, looked at it, and put it into her storage bag.
The Xuanling Sect has great benefits, and Jade Maiden Peak is even better, with monthly income!
Su Qing followed Liu Xuan toward Jade Maiden Peak.
Shui Qingchen had also heard that three outer disciples of the cultivation hall had been in seclusion for a month. She never expected that one of them was the outer disciple she had personally recruited from the Heavenly Ladder.
Shui Qingchen couldn't help but smile.
When she personally led the person back, she was ridiculed by the other elders, who said that she was just an outer disciple and not worth bringing back herself, which was simply lowering her status.
Now, seeing that the elders all looked sour when they heard that Su Qing had gone directly from the third level of Qi Refining to the fifth level, Shui Qingchen felt incredibly pleased.
She felt an instant connection with Su Qing, and now that she's made her so proud, she's definitely right about her.
When Su Qing arrived at Jade Maiden Peak, she saw Elder Shui Qingchen sitting cross-legged on a stone platform outside the cave.
Su Qing has lost a lot of weight in the past month. Shui Qingchen felt sorry for her when he saw her loose gray disciple robes, so he took out a set of clothes from his storage space.
“This is a set of moon-colored clothing, you can take it and wear it,” Shui Qingchen said.
Su Qing took it and saw that it was a set of clothes. This set of clothes was not an ordinary disciple's uniform, but a set of defensive magic artifacts that had been refined.
Although it is only a low-grade magic artifact, it is not easy to refine a defensive magic artifact into such a light and graceful garment, not to mention that this moon-colored garment is very beautiful and shimmering.
"Thank you, Master!" Su Qing quickly expressed her gratitude.
Shui Qingchen nodded and said, "Su Qing, you've been quite diligent in your cultivation. Now that you're at the fifth level of Qi Refining, you should start practicing some techniques. You have wood, fire, and metal spiritual roots, which are very suitable for you to practice sword manuals. I happen to have a sword manual here; you can practice it first."
As she spoke, Shui Qingchen took out another sword manual and handed it over.
Su Qing took it and saw that it was actually the Nine Revolutions Azure Origin Sword Technique.
After a quick glance, Su Qing's eyes lit up immediately. This Nine Revolutions Azure Origin Sword Technique was no less powerful than Senior Sister Ling Shuang's Frost Sword Technique.
The Nine Revolutions Azure Origin Sword Technique has nine revolutions. Each revolution doubles the attack power. If one cultivates to the ninth revolution, the power of that sword strike is comparable to splitting the heavens and earth.
"Thank you, Master!"
Su Qing was planning to do sect missions once she reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, then earn sect points to exchange for cultivation techniques in the library.
I never expected Shui Qingchen to give me such a powerful sword manual.
I must say, the Xuanling Sect is truly wonderful.
Su Qing's eyes sparkled. She decided that she would first cultivate the Nine Revolutions Azure Origin Sword Technique to the first revolution, and then it wouldn't be too late to go out and do sect missions.
"Su Qing, this is for you." As she spoke, Shui Qingchen gave her something else—a communication jade token!
This was no ordinary white jade communication token like the one Liu Xuan had; it was actually a Xuan Yu communication token.
"Take this jade communication token. If anything happens, I can contact you." After saying this, Shui Qingchen waved his hand, indicating that Su Qing could leave.
After Su Qing left, Shui Qingchen looked at Liu Xuan, who was standing to the side.
Liu Xuan dared not move. After Su Qing went into seclusion, she hadn't dared to slack off for a month and had been cultivating diligently. However, even after taking five Grade 3 Crimson Spirit Pills, she still hadn't broken through to the eighth level of the Qi Refining stage.
"Liu Xuan, I'll give you three months. If you can't break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining in three months, then you should go back," Shui Qingchen said calmly.
Liu Xuan froze completely. After a long while, she bowed and said, "Yes, Master."
After leaving Shui Qingchen's cave, Liu Xuan was completely dazed. She only breathed a long sigh of relief after leaving Jade Maiden Peak.
Liu Xuan suddenly knelt down on the ground.
This was the first time she had ever felt such intense pressure emanating from her master, Shui Qingchen.
Liu Xuan has been a disciple of the Xuanling Sect for eight years. Three years ago, Liu Xuan cultivated to the seventh level of the Qi Refining stage and was chosen by Elder Shui Qingchen to stay on Jade Maiden Peak to take care of the spirit fields.
At that time, she was full of ambition and thought she would become an alchemist in the future.
However, as time went on, the peaceful life at Xuanling Sect made her less diligent in her cultivation than before.
In three years, Liu Xuan only managed to advance from the seventh level of Qi Refining to the eighth level...
