Set a goal, and the system takes over the body.

Qi Qingshan nodded slightly, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes, before looking at Qi Wence.

"Second brother, you should also take one of these pills. You've been stuck at the peak of the Inner Strength Realm for many years. With this Golden Sun Marrow Cleansing Pill as a foundation, your realm will definitely advance further."

He paused, then said, "In addition, through these days of testing and observing the disciples, I feel that Xu Yi is a good person with a solid character and is willing to work hard in his training. Unfortunately, his talent is limited, and after a year, he still hasn't broken through to the next level."

"We can give him the last one and nurture him well; he might just become a great talent in the future."

Actually, he wanted to give it to Lin Hu more.

Lin Hu was someone he had watched grow up since childhood, and he was also the most talented martial arts prodigy, to whom he had devoted many years of his life.

But it's a pity.

The purpose of the Golden Sun Marrow Cleansing Pill is to enhance martial arts foundation and talent, not to repair broken tendons and meridians.

Qi Wence nodded: "Yes, Xu Yi has a good character and is a good person. Most importantly, he is loyal to the martial arts school. He is indeed worth cultivating."

Qi Qingshan then looked at Qi Xiuyuan.

"Xiuyuan, what do you think?"

Qi Xiuyuan said, "Father, Second Uncle, you can handle this matter as you see fit, but it's best to keep the source and quantity of the pills a secret. 'A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.' If word gets out, it won't do our martial arts school any good."

Qi Qingshan and Qi Wence exchanged a glance and smiled.

"You've really grown up, kid."

Such a precious elixir, if word gets out, will inevitably attract countless covetous eyes, and then there will be big trouble.

How could they not have thought of that?

Qi Xiuyuan, however, immediately thought of this, which made them quite gratified.

After returning to the martial arts school from the pharmacy, Qi Xiuyuan didn't rest but went straight to the alchemy room.

The bronze alchemy furnace in the alchemy room had been wiped clean.

He set his alchemy goals, let the system take over his body, and successively refined three batches of Qi and Blood Pills.

Once he regained control, he deliberately scattered the pills on the table, rubbed his eyes, and pretended to be exhausted before calling out for help.

"Junior Brother Xu, I have refined twenty-three Qi and Blood Pills. Please go and collect them, then take them to the pharmacy and give them to my second uncle."

"Yes, Senior Brother!"

Xu Yi happened to be on duty in the alchemy room today. Hearing the shout, he immediately came in, picked up the porcelain bottle and began to fill it with pills. As he filled it, he frowned, counted the pills again and again, and after a while, he walked over with a puzzled look on his face.

"Senior Brother, how many Qi and Blood Pills did you say you had?"

"Twenty-three."

"No, no, I counted three times, and it was always twenty-four."

"Twenty-four?"

Qi Xiuyuan feigned surprise.

"Yes, twenty-four pills. You can count them if you don't believe me," Xu Yi said, handing over the porcelain bottle containing the pills.

Qi Xiuyuan poured them out and counted them. Sure enough, there were twenty-four, each one round and plump, all of medium quality.

"There really are twenty-four? I can't believe I miscounted. I guess I'm really exhausted today."

He rubbed his temples and waved his hand.

"I can't go on like this. I need to rest properly. Junior Brother Xu, remember to send the pills over. Also, tell my second uncle that I won't be refining pills for the next couple of days. We'll talk about it again in a few days."

"Also, please keep an eye on Pang Yilie and Pang Ziming's whereabouts."

Xu Yi nodded: "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I will pass on the message to Second Master. At the same time, I will keep an eye on the news of the two Pang brothers. You get some rest. I'll go deliver the pills first."

Qi Xiuyuan nodded slightly: "Go."

Xu Yi took the pills and turned to leave.

Looking at his retreating figure, Qi Xiuyuan nodded slightly.

There were originally twenty-four Qi and Blood Pills, but he deliberately arranged them randomly and even omitted one, just to see if Xu Yi would embezzle any when collecting the pills.

Xu Yi certainly didn't disappoint him.

Therefore, there is nothing to dispute about the fact that his father and second uncle gave him a Golden Yang Marrow Cleansing Pill.

He has good character and a stable temperament, making him worth cultivating.

"Next, I will first practice the God-Sealing Finger, strive to enter the basics as soon as possible, and then rush to the minor success."

Qi Xiuyuan clenched his fists slightly, his gaze suddenly turning cold.

"Pang Qing, you attacked my father from behind and injured him. I will use the God-Sealing Finger to cripple your two sons and collect interest first."

Although this grudge can be settled at the Tianfu Martial Arts Tournament three months later.

However, even if one is skilled in martial arts, it doesn't necessarily mean one can defeat Pang Qing's son.

If you want revenge, do it in private!

Anyway, Pang Qing's two sons have done a lot of dirty things behind the scenes, bullying men and women, and oppressing the people. They are no good people.

Dealing with them is doing a service to the people.

Qi Xiuyuan didn't waste any more time and turned to rush back to his residence.

"Next, we need to confirm one more thing: set a goal to cultivate the Divine Conferring Finger to a minor level of mastery."

[Target detected: Fengshen Finger Minor Success]

[Method 1: Practice for six hours daily, combined with Qi and Blood Pills, Muscle Strengthening Pills, and Bone Forging Pills, for a month without fail, rain or shine, and you can achieve minor success.]

[Method 2: Practice for two hours every day for six months, rain or shine, and you can achieve some success.]

Please select a method to complete the objective.

"A month? That's much faster than before!"

Qi Xiuyuan stared at the light blue panel that popped up in front of him, a genuine joy showing in his eyes.

When he first obtained the fragment of the Investiture of the Gods, he had tried this goal. Method one required seven consecutive months to cultivate to the minor success level.

After taking a Golden Sun Cleansing Pill, the breakthrough time was reduced to one month.

The effects of Yi Jin Xi Sui (a traditional Chinese medicine treatment) on reshaping the foundation of one's body are truly visible.

But it's still too long.

Qi Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

Pang Qing ambushed and injured his father from behind; this grudge is so painful that waiting even a day longer feels like an eternity.

"Set a goal: master the basics of the Divine Consecration Finger technique as quickly as possible!"

[Target detected: Master the basics of the Divine Finger Technique as quickly as possible]

[Method 1: Practice for six hours daily, combined with Qi and Blood Pills, Muscle Strengthening Pills, and Bone Forging Pills, for ten consecutive days, rain or shine, and you will succeed.]

[Method 2: Before the Weiyuan Escort Agency's caravan leaves Tianfu City, steal or successfully borrow the Frostflame Tempering Finger Technique. Supplement it with a medicinal soup made from the Tendon-Tempering and Bone-Tempering Vine, and combine it with the Divine Conferring Finger Technique. You can master the basics in half an hour, and the finger power you cultivate can condense a trace of frostflame power.]

Please select a method to complete the objective.

"Half an hour? Frostfire?"

Qi Xiuyuan frowned slightly.

This speed is ridiculously fast, even somewhat unbelievable.

But can you just steal the things belonging to Weiyuan Escort Agency as you please?

Moreover, Yuan Fengchen had a good impression of him, and their subsequent travel together indirectly helped him cover his tracks and successfully bring the Jin Yang Bao Yu back to the city.

He, Qi Xiuyuan, would never stoop to such a despicable act as stealing other people's belongings.

Borrow it?

Why would someone lend you money after only meeting you once?

and many more!

Qi Xiuyuan's gaze sharpened, and he carefully read Method Two again.

"This document only mentions that Weiyuan Escort Agency has it, but it doesn't say that it's the goods they're escorting. Perhaps we could inquire about it. If it's feasible, as long as we pay enough, we might be able to borrow it from them for a day."

Having made up his mind, he turned around and rushed to Qi Qingshan's bedroom.

Qi Qingshan has returned to the martial arts school and is lying in bed recovering from his injuries; his face is still somewhat pale.

Hearing footsteps, he propped himself up on his arms and tried to sit up.

"Dad, don't move."

Qi Xiuyuan walked over quickly and helped him lean against the pillows propped up at the head of the bed.

"Xiuyuan? What's wrong?"

Qi Qingshan took a slight breath and looked at him with some confusion.

"Father, do you know about the Frost Flame?" Qi Xiuyuan asked.
