Faced with this ambitious but not very skilled junior brother, An Chuan finally seemed a little impatient.Gan Lin was still somewhat unwilling, but he also knew that his senior brother was right. He s...With a thought, Lu Xiaotien moved his mind. The mist surged, and several wisps of mist enveloped his primordial spirit again to protect him. When he came into contact with the agile blue silk, Lu Xiaotien's spirit soared, feeling that his primordial spirit felt refreshed after devouring the blue silk.
He was about to devour the other Qingmang when a hoarse laugh rang out, "Haha.... This ghost place actually has spiritual energy replenishment, great!"
Lu XiaTian heard the sound and was immediately anxious. Although he had a mist protecting him, so he didn't have to worry about the black-robed elder's sneak attack, the gap in their cultivation levels meant his speed couldn't compare to the elder's.
Could these strands of silver be the spiritual energy produced by the spirit grass he had just consumed Lu Xiaoteng guessed in his heart, and then regained control of his body. He swallowed another leaf of the spirit grass. As expected, besides the part that could be accommodated by the meridians, the rest disappeared again, and some more strands of silver appeared inside the barrier.
The old man in black's spirit was searching around, and when he saw the green silk being born again, he was overjoyed. He chased after the green silk and swallowed it into his belly. The spirit body, which had become weak and faint due to casting spells, now looked a bit more solid.
"Shut up, that Qi is mine!" Lu Xiaotian cried out in exasperation after experiments proved the Qi was transformed from spirit herbs.
"Anything unclaimed, a virtuous person may take it. Whoever eats it first gets it. If you want it, come and get it yourself." The black-robed elder chuckled sinisterly.
“This is because I swallowed the Zi Cao and couldn't absorb all the spiritual energy it required in a short time, so I ended up inside the Qingguo Barrier. If you use it all up, well, I won't take any more spirit herbs in the future, and will simply cultivate on my own. There won't be a single wisp of spiritual energy born within the barrier anymore!”

Lu Xiaitian's heart ached. The Zi Cao he had painstakingly collected was wasted like this, and it fell into the hands of his enemies. After taking Lingcao and cultivating for over a year, he was still at the first level of Qi Refining. If he relied on his own cultivation, it would probably take at least three years to break through to the second level.
As cultivation progresses, it becomes increasingly difficult. It's estimated that reaching the third level of Qi Refinement would take six to seven years, or even longer. However, after consuming the spirit grass, besides the portion that my body can immediately digest and absorb, the excess spiritual energy appears entirely within the barrier. Entering the barrier requires constant vigilance against the Black Robe Elder's attacks. This issue must be resolved, otherwise, future cultivation will be as difficult as ascending to heaven!
"Are you saying that's true What proof do you have Also, is this place called the Qingguo Barrier" The black-robed elder hesitated for a moment before speaking. He had been in this barrier for several months and hadn't felt even a trace of spiritual energy. Now, two waves suddenly appeared, which was definitely not without reason. Moreover, the name "prison" seemed to be unusual as well.
"If you don't believe me, just say a time and I'll make another wave of spiritual energy appear within this barrier." Lu Xia Tian snorted. The so-called Qingguo Barrier was his own name for it. This place was born because of the Qingguo fruit and had a layer of barrier-like wall, so he called it the Qingguo Barrier.
"Well, after an incense stick, if there's another surge of spiritual energy within the barrier, I'll believe your words." The old man in black robe nodded.
After a stick of incense, the blue silk within the barrier once again thickened.
"Well, do you believe it now" Lu Xia Tian's Yuanshen appeared outside the barrier again and said.
The black-robed elder looked at the blue silk floating in the air, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
“So what if you believe it”
“The spiritual energy born in this space, we split it 80/20, 80 for me and 20 for you,” Lu Xiaodao said.
“I’ll use this spiritual energy as I please. Two to one What difference does it make Your cultivation is so low, you can't use that much spiritual energy. Eight to two would be more appropriate.” The old man in black chuckled.
“I’ll take seven, you take three. Even if it’s a lot, we can just split up after that. You won't get even a speck of spiritual energy from this afterwards.”
"No way, I'll give you four for every six of mine!"
"I six you four!"
"It's a 50/50 split, if not then forget it!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Fine, split it then. I only have two and a half purple grasses anyway." Lu Xia Tian felt a surge of annoyance. Although he had to give half of his herbs to this rival for nothing, it was still better than cultivating alone.
The old man in black robes snorted, "Purple grass You're truly short-sighted. The one you're talking about is Purple Spirit Grass. With your current cultivation level, you can only absorb the spiritual energy of the Purple Spirit Grass without being blown to pieces. If it were refined into Gathering Qi Pills, its effects would be at least three times stronger than simply eating Purple Spirit Grass."
"If I knew how to refine pills, would I need you to tell me" Lu Xia Tian's eyes twinkled. "How about this, we're both in the same boat now, tied together like grasshoppers. You teach me the method of refining Gathering Qi Pills, and when I refine them, you'll get a larger share of spiritual energy."
The old man in black robes rolled his eyes and said, "You think refining pills is child's play Even if I taught you the method, you wouldn't even qualify as a pill apprentice right now. It's good enough if you can refine one furnace out of ten furnaces. Two plants of Purple Spirit Grass aren't even enough to cover your tuition."
If you disagree, then forget it. Don't expect any more spiritual energy replenishment from me in the future," Lu Xia Tian threatened.
"It's not impossible, but just in case we manage to refine Qi Gathering Pills, I'll take the first two. Afterwards, we'll split the remaining ones evenly."
The old man in black pondered for a moment. The Qi Gathering Pill could only be used by cultivators at the early stage of Qi Refining, and the spiritual energy of this purple spirit grass was far from enough for him. Now that he had fallen to the eleventh level of Qi Refining and had to return to the twelfth level, it would take a lot of time. If Lu Xia Tian remained in a stalemate with him, it wouldn't benefit him in any way.
"Deal!" Lu XiaTian nodded in agreement. No matter what, knowing how to refine Qi Gathering Pills would ultimately be an extra skill.
“Do you need a copper-made Dan furnace” Lu Xia Tian was a little annoyed that the black-robed old man refused to give him his old alchemy furnace. Until now, he was certain that the unopened storage bag had to belong to the black-robed old man. But the old fellow wouldn't let go, and he was helpless. There must be something very important inside that storage bag.
After obtaining the recipe for Juqi Dan, Lu Xia Tian had no desire to continue cultivating in the cave. So, he returned to Pingwu County and sold two more herbs. Then, he visited several blacksmith shops before finding the third one that could forge a red copper furnace for him.
After paying the deposit, Lu Xia Tian left the blacksmith's shop. As soon as he stepped onto a secluded alleyway, he saw two groups of people facing each other, swords drawn and bows strung tight. They were all boys and girls aged twelve or thirteen, dressed in martial arts uniforms. One side had six or seven people, while the other had fourteen or fifteen.
"As for which sect you belong to, even after arriving in Pingwu County, you dare to be so arrogant. You are from the Lei Dao Sect, aren't you This time you have met the Black Tiger Gang, consider yourselves unlucky!" said a slender young man in embroidered clothes on the opposite side with a calm face.
“You’re only relying on your numbers. If you have the guts, fight us one-on-one and see if any of Heihǔmén’s disciples have grown stronger in recent years.” Stepping out from the seven figures behind Lu Xiaottian, a tall man in black spoke with disdain.
Lu Xiaoteng originally intended to turn and leave, but upon hearing this familiar voice, his steps faltered, and he stopped. If it were an ordinary disciple of the Leidao Sect, he naturally wouldn't have bothered, but he didn't expect to encounter Shi Qingshan again here after leaving Qingzhu County. There are many entanglements in the Jianghu. It seems that the Leidao Sect had a grudge with the Heihutang in the past. Unexpectedly, Shi Qingshan became the leader of so many disciples. Lu Xiaoteng sincerely felt happy for him.han Yuetai battlefield. We Jindan cultivators naturally cannot easily intervene and fight with them, as for the main force of the battle, we still rely on your foundation-building cultivators. Among t...
