Mortal Alchemy

Finally, he bought a "Spirit Nurturing Art," which allows one to cultivate a spirit plant, and over time, refine it into a magical artifact.

He also bought a Green Jade Bamboo spirit plant that hadn't yet been graded.

With thirteen spirit stones left, Chen Ping went to Myriad Treasure Pavilion and bought a bottle of Yuan Qi pills, planning to test their effects.

"...Ten spirit stones for a bottle," Chen Ping felt a pang of pain.

Carrying these things, Chen Ping left the market and began his journey back to the Mu family on foot.

Under the rule of the Eastern Xuan Sect, no one would kill for a few spirit stones.

By the time Chen Ping returned to the Mu family at Autumn Moon Lake, it was already the evening of the next day.

Most of his two-day break was spent traveling.

Chen Ping looked slightly tired and then headed towards the Battle Division.

The Battle Division was a massive mountain that soared into the clouds. A handyman disciple at the foot of the mountain stopped Chen Ping:

"This senior brother, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Battle Division."

Chen Ping explained his purpose:

"I'm here to deliver a bottle of Essence Qi pills to Senior Brother Li Erniu of the Battle Division."

The handyman disciple said, "Delivering pills? Well, give me the pills, and I'll go to the Battle Division later and hand them over to Senior Brother Li Erniu."

Chen Ping took out twenty spirit sands and gave them to the handyman disciple: "Then I'll have to trouble you, junior brother."

The handyman disciple immediately smiled and patted his chest:

"Senior brother, rest assured, I will definitely deliver them to Senior Brother Li Erniu."

Chen Ping nodded, then turned and left, returning to his own cultivation place to plant the Green Jade Bamboo.

The courtyard immediately gained a touch of green, making it look much more pleasing. He would spend most of his time in the alchemy room anyway, and it would be a waste not to condense the spiritual energy in this cultivation place.

It was better to let the spirit plant enjoy it, as it would become his aid in the future.

After a comfortable night's rest in his cultivation place, Chen Ping got up early the next morning and went to the Pill Hall. After breakfast, he didn't rush to the alchemy room.

He went to the storage room and found Madam Hua Die:

"Senior Sister Hua Die, I want to buy materials for thirty portions of Fasting Pills and Qi Recovery Pills."

Madam Hua Die looked at Chen Ping with a smile, covering her mouth with a jade folding fan, and giggled:

"Junior Brother Chen, you're so young and already know how to be frugal and manage the household. You're a good man."

"But alchemy is hard work, so you must also be moderate and take care of your body."

Chen Ping's ears turned slightly red, and his eyes flickered a little.

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy is most likely to have a good impression of an alluring woman in her thirties like Madam Hua Die.

After all, one side is full of youthful vigor, while the other is mature and gentle, knows how to be considerate and take care of others, and has a hot and alluring figure, like a juicy peach.

But Chen Ping knew that this good impression was not love.

Chen Ping said, "Thank you for your care, Senior Sister. I will definitely pay attention."

Madam Hua Die nodded slightly: "Wait here for a while, and I'll get the medicinal materials for you."

After exchanging money for medicinal materials, Madam Hua Die also said:

"If Junior Brother feels bored while refining pills and has no time for cultivation, you can come to me for a chat to relieve your boredom."

She was at the best time of her youth, but because of her background, she had to guard the entrance of the storage room.

Chen Ping refused in his heart, but cupped his hands and said:

"Junior Brother will remember and will definitely come to Senior Sister to relieve my boredom."

Madam Hua Die looked at him with a smile: "Go ahead."

Chen Ping had no free time to chat with Madam Hua Die to relieve his boredom. He was originally a Five Elements mixed spiritual root, and if he wasted his precious time, causing him to be unable to establish his foundation in this life, he would be finished.

Chen Ping returned to the alchemy room and began to prepare to refine the Spiritual Sense Pill:

"I hope I can succeed this time."
