Only I Have the Law: A Realistic Cultivation Game

Chapter 131 New Mission: Defeat the "Alien Cultivators'" Courage (Please Subscribe)

After advancing in cultivation level, there were still four pills left to consume.

Xu Zhiyi didn't hesitate and picked up a green pill and put it in her mouth.

It still melts in your mouth, a warm current flowing down your throat. However, compared to the previous few precious and spiritual pills, this warm current is much gentler, like a spring stream, slowly flowing into your dantian.

[Realm]: Third level of Qi refining (8/400)

[Spiritual Qi]: 3410/3410

It increased by 8 points.

Xu Zhiyi nodded and ate the remaining two high-quality Qi Refining Pills.

After consuming these three high-quality Qi Refining Pills, the combined increase was only 22 points.

Compared to the effects of high-grade and rare Qi-refining pills, the difference is indeed quite significant.

However, Xu Zhiyi was already very satisfied.

He glanced at the only remaining white, ordinary-grade Qi Refining Pill in his hand.

He had experienced the effects of ordinary pills before. The effect of improving one's cultivation level was about 1 to 5 points, which was negligible. It was only slightly better than nothing, and it was better to use them as "blue bottles" for emergencies.

Now, eating it will only raise his cultivation level by a few points, which is better than nothing.

Let's keep it for now.

Thinking this, Xu Zhiyi moved his mind, and the ordinary-grade Qi Refining Pill disappeared from his palm and was put into his storage bag, along with the two that were left over from before.

He now has three ordinary-grade Qi Refining Pills.

Each of the three emergency "little blue bottles" can restore at least 500 points of spiritual energy.

If one day he really runs out of spiritual energy and encounters an emergency, these three ordinary-grade Qi Refining Pills would be life-saving elixirs!

After doing all this, he brought up the character panel again:

[Player]: Xu Zhiyi [Level]: Lv.8 (5460/9000)

[Realm]: Third level of Qi refining (22/400)

[Spiritual Qi]: 3700/3700

【property】:

Intelligence: 11

Physical fitness: 11

Root: 8

Spirit: 11

[Free attribute points]: 0

Looking at the brand-new panel, Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but smile slightly.

It really does take pills!

In less than a month, he went directly from the first level of Qi Refining to the third level.

The only thing that bothered him was that his alchemy furnace was empty, and he only had two sets of materials left in his storage bag. If he refined them now, he could only get two pills per batch. If he didn't refine them, it would be very uncomfortable to leave the furnace empty.

Xu Zhiyi sent a message to the ginseng seller, intending to buy ginseng and lingzhi, but the seller did not reply. It was already this late, so he was probably already resting.

It seems we'll have to let the alchemy furnace rest for a while.

The next morning.

It's exactly five o'clock.

Xu Zhiyi opened her eyes right on time.

It was still very dark outside the window.

Xu Zhiyi first circulated the "Hun Yuan Breathing Technique" once, then got out of bed, washed up and dressed, took out a large mineral water bottle from her storage bag, and quietly went downstairs.

It is now mid-October.

The temperature difference between day and night is large in Wuxi, and the air humidity is high, so dew condenses easily.

Upon arriving at the park, he saw a thick layer of dew condensed on the grass and trees, and his dew collection racks were full.

Xu Zhiyi nodded in satisfaction, tightened the bottle of dew, and put it into her storage bag. Just as she was about to go for another workout, her phone suddenly vibrated.

He took it out and saw that it was a message from Boss Zhao, the Fujianese boss who sold ginseng:

[Sorry, young man. I went to bed early last night and didn't see the message. The ginseng and lingzhi are still available; you can come over whenever you like.]

Xu Zhiyi typed a reply:

Is half an hour later okay?

Okay, I'll go open the door and wait for you!

Xu Zhiyi put away her phone, scanned a shared bicycle at the park entrance, and headed straight for the Jingge Ginseng and Deer Antler Market.

At this hour in the morning, getting a taxi is unreliable.

Shared bikes are the most convenient.

About twenty minutes later, Xu Zhiyi found Boss Zhao's shop with practiced ease.

The store is already open.

Boss Zhao seemed to have just arrived as well, and was boiling water to make tea.

Upon seeing him approach, his face immediately broke into a wide smile.

"Young man, you're here! Come in, come in and have some tea!"

Xu Zhiyi came three times in half a month, taking nearly 100,000 yuan worth of goods, all paid in cash. Naturally, he had to carefully maintain good relationships with such a customer.

Boss Zhao diligently brewed tea and then brought out two large boxes from behind the counter, neatly stacked with ginseng and lingzhi. "I've already packed them all, ten portions of ginseng and ten portions of lingzhi. Open them and check the quality."

"Um."

Xu Zhiyi nodded and checked them one by one.

You have obtained 1 top-grade ginseng.

You have obtained 1 top-grade ginseng.

You have obtained 1 superior-grade Ganoderma lucidum.

You have obtained 1 superior-grade Ganoderma lucidum.

All of them have been tested and are of superior quality.

Xu Zhiyi readily scanned the code to pay.

Boss Zhao beamed and handed over another business card: "Young man, this is a cousin of mine who specializes in selling mountain products from the snowy region."

"Didn't you say you wanted wild snow lotus and he shou wu last time? He'll definitely be able to get them."

Xu Zhiyi took the business card and glanced at it. It read "Zhao Haiping, General Manager of Tibet Lingyuan Co., Ltd." and below it was a phone number.

Is it reliable?

"Absolutely reliable!" Boss Zhao patted his chest and guaranteed, "He's been working in the snowy region for years, his goods might be a bit more expensive than others, but they're all genuine!"

Xu Zhiyi nodded and put the business card into her pocket.

Thanks.

"Don't mention it, just let me know if you need anything else!"

Xu Zhiyi carried two large bags of medicinal herbs out of the market, and when no one was paying attention, she put them directly into her storage bag. Then she summoned the alchemy panel on the street.

[Elementary Qi Refining Pill]

[All materials are ready. Shall we begin refining?]

Xu Zhiyi clicked "confirm" without hesitation.

Maximum value!

slow fire!

[Selection Confirmed: Slow-cooked Refining]

Estimated time: 72 hours

[Begin Alchemy]

Current progress: 0%

Xu Zhiyi nodded in satisfaction.

Another batch of pills is on its way.

After refining the elixir, he hurriedly went to school.

Fortunately, riding a bicycle prevents him from getting stuck in rush hour traffic, allowing him to arrive at the classroom before the school bell rang.

The morning classes passed quickly amidst the intense review.

When it was time to eat, Xu Zhiyi and Wang Kai went to the cafeteria together.

She had barely taken a couple of bites when a familiar figure walked over with a tray and sat down next to Xu Zhiyi quite naturally.

The person who arrived was Lin Wei.

She wore a loose gray sweatshirt today, and her hair was a little longer than before. She casually tied it into a short ponytail, revealing her well-defined jawline.

"There's something I want to discuss with you..."

Xu Zhiyi took a bite of rice. "What is it?"

Lin Wei took out her phone from her pocket, tapped a few times, and handed it to Xu Zhiyi. "Have you heard of the Wanshan Lake Marathon held in Wuxi?"

The registration deadline is October 24th, and the competition will be held on November 1st.

"I've heard of it before." Xu Zhiyi nodded. "It seemed to be quite popular last year."

"It's more than just fire." Lin Wei put away her phone and said seriously, "This is one of the largest marathon events in our Wuxi City, second only to the Taihu Marathon held every March."

The champion's prize is 10 yuan, are you interested?

Xu Zhiyi shook her head.

He wasn't a sporty person to begin with, and he wasn't interested in this kind of competition.

"Really not interested?" Lin Wei sighed regretfully. "I was thinking that if you participated, maybe you could teach those professional Black athletes a lesson!"

Xu Zhiyi was taken aback. "A Black athlete?"

"That's right!"

Mentioning this, Lin Wei said with obvious displeasure, "Now, domestic marathon races, especially those with high prize money, are basically dominated by professional athletes from Africa."

They make money by running marathons.

The prize money for the two marathons in Wuxi is quite high, so all the Black athletes came!

Last year's Wanshan Lake Marathon and this year's Taihu Lake Marathon in March saw almost all the top finishers being Black athletes, with domestic runners failing to even crack the top three.

I'm so frustrated!

Xu Zhiyi raised an eyebrow slightly.

This was the first time he had ever heard of this.

Previously, he paid almost no attention to marathons, only knowing that it was a very tiring long-distance running event.

"I've heard of that too."

Sitting opposite him, Wang Kai nodded and said, "I heard that those black athletes are all professionals, and they do have a racial advantage in track and field. With their professional training, domestic amateur athletes simply can't outrun them."

The marathon prize money in our Wuxi city is so high that it's become a cash cow for those Black athletes.

Xu Zhiyi nodded thoughtfully, showing a slight interest.

At that moment, a semi-transparent blue panel popped up in his field of vision:

[We have detected that cultivators from other races are frequently appearing in our sect's territory. Under the guise of participating in the sect's examinations, they are plundering cultivation resources and suppressing the morale of local cultivators. Their actions have seriously damaged the sect's reputation.]

[Current map quest: Participate in the Wanshan Lake sect's examination, thwart the alien cultivators' arrogance, and uphold the sect's prestige!]

[Task Rewards: Experience +800, Silver +10, Random Skill x1]

Xu Zhiyi was secretly delighted.

Yes, yes!

Although this task offers less experience, it's a task that rewards you with skills.

What he lacks most right now is skills.

Moreover, he already had the idea of ​​participating in the competition, so this task was a freebie for him!

Seeing that he remained silent, Lin Wei assumed he was still hesitating, so she continued to persuade him: "Actually, you don't need to feel pressured. It doesn't matter if you can't win. Just treat it as having fun."

However, I think with your excellent physical condition, you'll definitely achieve a good result with just a little practice.

Xu Zhiyi nodded, "Okay, I'll participate."

Lin Wei immediately laughed: "That's right! Don't worry about the registration, I'll take care of it. You just need to focus on running around."

"Okay." Xu Zhiyi nodded.

Wang Kai, who had been watching the whole thing from the opposite side, finally couldn't help but speak up: "No, it's already decided? A marathon is no joke. Even a half marathon is 21 kilometers!"

Running this far in one go is no joke!

Before Xu Zhiyi could speak, Lin Wei said, "Don't worry, I know Xu Zhiyi's physical condition best. Running a full marathon is definitely no problem for her."

"Oh?"

Wang Kai's expression was strange.

Why do you know best?
