Chapter 95: The success of the Bailing honey formula, a mixture of worry and joy

"slow!"

“It’s really too slow!”

Having experienced the rocket-like improvement in realm, Qi Ping now feels that his current cultivation speed is terribly slow.

"No wonder so many people in Qingshi County are stuck in the late stage of Qi Refining. The difficulty of advancing to the late stage of Qi Refining is several times higher than that of the middle stage of Qi Refining."

Moreover, this is the speed at which Qi Ping practices with the blessing of various conditions such as fire ginseng honey, yang fire body, and jungle druid.

Generally, it stops at the late stage of Qi Refining, and it is understandable that one would waste ten or even dozens of years in the late stage of Qi Refining.

"According to my current cultivation speed, I estimate that it will take at least a year and a half for me to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining."

In fact, this speed is already very fast. Even many disciples of Qingyuan Sect cannot reach this speed of cultivation.

But Qi Ping was not very satisfied.

Because if he continues to practice at this speed, his realm will not be able to keep up with the speed of improvement of his animal companions.

Just like now, the speed at which he was cultivating blood ginseng could no longer keep up with the demand for resources from the bee colony's explosive growth.

Fortunately, the plant growth broke through to level three a few days ago, and the speed of cultivating spiritual medicine has been greatly improved.

lv2植物生长（161/200）→lv3植物生长（5/400）

However, in order to keep up with the demand and cultivate the additional resources needed by him and the Yang Fire Crow, Qi Ping felt that at least the ninth level of Qi Refining would be enough.

Therefore, improving one's realm is also an urgent matter for Qi Ping. In addition, in such a world, the faster one's strength is improved, the better.

"So next I have to find a fire attribute elixir and a wood attribute elixir that suit me, preferably a first-level advanced elixir recipe with fire attribute."

"This way, both Yaya and I can use it."

"I wonder if there are any suitable first-level advanced spiritual medicines in Qingshifang City."

When it comes to first-level advanced cultivation resources, the difficulty of obtaining them increases sharply, and the price is also much higher, so it is not something that ordinary people can easily buy.

If you reach the foundation-building stage, this is the case. If you want to obtain resources of this level, you either have to become one of us or pay a huge amount of spirit stones.
"Fortunately, I have the [Plant Growth] skill that can speed up the growth of spiritual medicines, and I also have spiritual stone pillars that can cultivate high-level spiritual medicines. I only need to obtain active spiritual medicines or spiritual seeds. Even if there is only one plant, I can cut off a little each time I use it, and then continue to cultivate it."

In this way, Qi Ping would be subject to much fewer restrictions. Otherwise, if all cultivation resources were to be purchased or obtained by chance, that would be basically impossible.

A major problem faced by independent cultivators is the huge limitations on their access to resources.

However, even if Qi Ping was anxious, there was nothing he could do. He only had 570 spirit stones on him, which should be enough to buy a suitable first-level high-level spiritual medicine. However, if he wanted to get a suitable pill recipe and the corresponding spiritual medicine and pill knowledge, it would be far from enough.

So it all comes down to a lack of money issue.

So Qi Ping could only wait until the appropriate formula of Bailing Honey was tested so that he could start earning a large amount of spirit stones.

According to the previous selling price, it is estimated that more than one thousand spirit stones can be earned per month. The Bailing grass matures once a quarter, which means three thousand spirit stones per quarter.

He only needs to wait for a while and he will receive a large amount of spirit stones.

"Be patient, don't be too impatient, calm down and practice with peace of mind first."

In this way, Qi Ping concentrated on practicing and cultivating elixirs, trying hard to comprehend the power laws of plant growth, hoping to increase his proficiency in this skill faster.

At the same time, Qi Ping also used these things to sharpen his mentality.
In this way, Qi Ping slowly entered a very peaceful state of cultivation. No matter how turbulent the outside world was, he only needed to stay calm and cultivate well.

Perhaps because his mind was peaceful, or perhaps because this state was more suitable for comprehending the principles and artistic conception, Qi Ping's speed of improving his realm was actually faster.

This went on for about a week, and all the fifty types of lark honey that Qi Ping had set up were successfully brewed by the brewer, the big-bellied bee.

“Finally everything was brewed successfully!”

"I don't know if I can completely get rid of the shadow of the lark grass."

As long as his talent as a master brewer is unable to distinguish the shadow of the lark grass, the risk can be basically reduced to a minimum.

Since Qi Ping couldn't find any words even though he was actively looking for traces of the Bailing Grass, it would be a fantasy for others to find any clues from it.

In this way, Qi Ping can use it to earn spirit stones with confidence!
"As long as the test is successful, the problem of lack of spirit stones in the future can basically be solved."

With such anticipation, Qi Ping carefully distinguished the medicinal properties of each portion of honey.
"The first one has obvious traces of Bailing grass, no."

“No, the second one.”

"The third one failed."

"The twenty-seventh one, success."

"Fiftieth copy, failed"

When Qi Ping tried fifty different recipes of Bailing honey, his brows were tightly furrowed.

Only one out of fifty recipes was successful!
There was no trace of lark in this honey. Qi Ping tried it several times and it was the same every time.

Therefore, if it is sold according to this formula, the risk should not be high.

However, there is a problem with this recipe, which is that it uses a large amount of Yunling Fruit.

The amount of Soul-Bearing Fruit used is about one-fifth of the amount of Lark Grass.

"If this is the case, although the efficacy of this formula has been improved a bit, approaching the medicinal properties of the first-level intermediate, but taking into account the cost of the Soul-Yunning Fruit, the final profit is estimated to be reduced by one-fifth."

Originally, a one-fifth reduction in profit was not a big deal, because Qi Ping's cost of lark was too low. Even if the profit was reduced a little, it was still very profitable.

What really made Qi Ping frown was that this meant that he needed to purchase a large amount of Soul-Enriching Fruit, because he was temporarily unable to achieve natural mass production of Soul-Enriching Fruit, and Sister Nan's production could not keep up with his needs.

Thinking of this, Qi Ping couldn't help but frown and ponder.
But soon after, Qi Ping's brows gradually relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.

"It seems like this is not a bad idea. I can use the Soul-Yunning Fruit to cover up the traces of the Bailing Grass."

"Anyone who has a little knowledge of medicinal properties will be able to discover the medicinal properties of the Soul-Enriching Fruit, and will not want to explore whether there are other things in it, because there is nothing surprising about using the Soul-Enriching Fruit to cultivate honey of this level. If nothing can be seen, it will arouse suspicion."

After all, who would bother him over a first-grade low-grade honey that was not even worth the normal market value of a first-grade intermediate level?

Even if he attracted enemies, they would at most be just some Qi-refining villains and would not pose any threat to Qi Ping!

"But the Soul-Enriching Fruit I bought from Sister Nan last time has been basically used up. Next, I have to find a stable supply channel for Soul-Enriching Fruit. This way, I can maintain a stable output of Bailing Honey and earn a lot of soul stones."
