Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

201 Insufficient Abilities

This pill recipe was also given to Su Cheng by Lady Rong. The token that Dong Xi had given to Lady Rong previously contained a wisp of Su Cheng’s divine sense. Originally, it was impossible for Lady Rong to intimidate those demon beasts by herself. Dong Xi had just delivered the token to her, which was a timely help.

Dong Xi took the jade slip Su Cheng threw over and pressed it against her forehead to feel the contents.

Dong Xi said, “tier-3, huh… I don’t think I’m capable enough…”

Now, Dong Xi had 30,000 points and so many spirit plants. There was no problem with the spirit plants being used to refine pills, but Dong Xi’s own spiritual energy might not be enough.

Dong Xi currently had no problem refining low-grade Spirit Restore Pill and so on… She could even refine slightly higher grade Fasting Pills.

However, this tier-3 pill required twice as much spiritual energy as the Wind Speed Pill.

Hearing Dong Xi’s words, Su Cheng said, “Aren’t you about to break through?”

Dong Xi, “…”

“I’m indeed about to break through, but what makes you think that a little disciple like me can cross so many levels and refine pills that can only be refined above the tenth level of Qi Refinement?” Dong Xi said.

Dong Xi felt that he had to explain. If this continued, Dong Xi would not be able to continue hiding his strength.

Su Cheng smiled. He said coldly, “You’ve reached the sixth level of the Qi Refinement stage. Are you ordinary?”

Dong Xi frowned and stared at Su Cheng. Dong Xi said, “How did you know?”

Su Cheng looked at Dong Xi’s Dantian. He said with a meaningful tone, “How do you think I know?”

Dong Xi was speechless. He had almost forgotten that the snake’s inner core was still in her Dantian.

This traitor! Dong Xi had nourished it with spiritual energy for so long, yet this broken inner core still dared to help its original owner?

Su Cheng saw Dong Xi’s dissatisfaction. He sat up and said lazily, “How about you make a deal with me?”

“What deal?” Dong Xi pondered for a moment and asked.

Su Cheng looked at the stone frog and said, “If you help me refine pills, I can send you to the treasured land if you want to go there next time.”

Dong Xi’s eyes lit up. She asked, “Just one cauldron of pills?”

Su Cheng shook his head. “No, the more the better. For every cauldron of pills, I will send you to that treasure land 10 times.”

Dong Xi calculated for a moment and felt that this was still somewhat inappropriate. Dong Xi immediately bargained and said, “Each cauldron of pills, and you’ll send me there 20 times. My cultivation level is still not high enough, and I need to eat a lot of Spirit Restore Pill to make one. 10 times is a little too little.”

“Your cultivation will continue to rise, so at most 12 times,” Su Cheng said.

When Dong Xi encountered such a situation, she would become very serious. She did not even notice the snake tail that was already at her feet. She said, “There isn’t even much effort on your part. All you do is throw a frog at me, right? 18 times, it’s decided. If you don’t agree, I won’t refine the pills.”

As soon as Dong Xi finished speaking, the snake’s tail wrapped around Dong Xi’s ankle.

Dong Xi instinctively activated the spiritual energy in her body, but the moment the fire spiritual energy produced a spark, the snake tail instantly extinguished it.

Dong Xi was immediately picked up. Su Cheng touched the red bracelet on his wrist and said indifferently, “15 times. If you dare to say anything else, I don’t have that much patience.”

Was this a threat or a bribe?

Dong Xi looked at Su Cheng. After all, an arm could not win against a thigh, so she could only agree in the end.

In the next two days, Dong Xi would go and exchange for a treasure that could provide light and illumination, and then enter that treasured land. If she kept using fire spiritual energy, it would be a waste.

After coming out of the Immortal’s cave, the sunlight outside was piercing, and Dong Xi’s eyes were not used to it for a moment.

Dong Xi raised her hand to block the sunlight. After she got used to it, she turned her head to look at the big willow tree not far away.

Liu Qing and Songsong sat together on the tree branch. When Dong Xi walked over, Songsong and Liu Qing quickly came down from the tree.

“Little Xi, you’re finally out,” Liu Qing said with concern. “Did you get bullied?”

Songsong looked at Dong Xi with a pair of big eyes and kept nodding.

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment, then she smiled. She had indeed bullied by the big snake, but she could not lose face. Dong Xi tried to save face by saying, “Why would I be bullied? This is my Immortal’s cave!”

After Dong Xi finished speaking, she saw that Liu Qing still wanted to ask something. Dong Xi immediately continued, “How long have I been in there?”

Songsong did not know how to explain the time, so it could only look at Liu Qing.

“About 15 minutes,” answered Liu Qing after a moment of thought.
