Mythical Beasts: The Useless Lady Is a Genius!

150 Spirit Stones

Kong Rui looked up at the square artifact above her head. “With that thing around, won’t spiritual energy be useless? Can you even refine pills?”

Chao Bai blinked and said mysteriously, “There’s no need to use our own spiritual energy. First Elder Nie will naturally keep sending us spiritual energy!”

Kong Rui was stunned and didn’t believe Chao Bai.

After all, how could there be so much spiritual energy?

Besides, since their own spiritual energy couldn’t be used, even if Nie Lin sent spiritual energy, could they use it?

Kong Rui was wondering about it when she heard voices outside the door.

“Open the door.” Nie Lin’s voice sounded from outside the door.

Kong Rui turned around and looked at Chao Bai. From his calm expression, it was as if he had already guessed that Nie Lin would return.

“It’s good that you guys didn’t try to escape.” Nie Lin nodded in satisfaction. “You have to know that if you try to escape from here, as long as you activate an array with spiritual energy, the Kunlun Mirror above will take your lives!”

Kong Rui looked at Chao Bai in shock, then glared at Nie Lin from behind the veiled hat.

Nie Lin seemed to sense the killing intent in Kong Rui’s eyes and said, “You don’t have to hate me. If you do as I say, I naturally won’t hurt you.”

“If you can really refine a pill to detoxify me, I can guarantee that not only will I let you guys leave, but I will also give you guys endless wealth!” Nie Lin said generously.

Kong Rui pursed her lips. She wasn’t interested in Nie Lin’s conditions at all. Her goal was to take Nie Lin’s life, but now, she was actually controlled by him. How annoying!

However, Chao Bai said to Nie Lin, “Our spiritual energy can’t be used here, so I need enough spirit stones to activate the pill furnace. You aren’t stingy with spirit stones, right?!”

Nie Lin raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. “Of course! The Nie family naturally doesn’t lack spirit stones. It depends on how many you need.”

Chao Bai calculated it before saying, “Only spirit stones of the Third Grade and above can barely activate the pill furnace. The number of spirit stones of the Third Grade needed to operate the pill furnace for a day is about 100,000. If you use spirit stones of the Third Stage to refine pills, the quality of the pills won’t good. It will take about three days, which is about 300,000 spirit stones of the Third Stage.”

“If it’s a spirit stone above the Fifth Grade, the quality of this medicinal pill will naturally increase a lot. The time needed is similar. It will need about 50,000 spirit stones a day. Three days will be a total of 150,000 spirit stones of the Fifth Stage.”

“Of course, if it’s a spirit stone above the Seventh Grade, the quality of the medicinal pill and the refining time will be different. It can be refined in about a day and night, and the number of Seventh Grade spirit stones required is about 30,000.”

When she heard Chao Bai’s accounting, Kong Rui’s mouth couldn’t help but drop agape.

Cultivators often needed to accumulate spiritual energy for cultivation. Alchemists used spiritual energy to activate the pill furnace to refine medicine. The higher the alchemist’s cultivation level, the higher the quality of the medicinal pill they refined.

Of course, the quality of this pill was also related to the pill furnace and the spiritual herbs chosen.

When alchemists couldn’t use spiritual energy to activate the pill furnace, some alchemists would choose to collect spirit stones as fuel.

However, the alchemists who chose to do this were either rich or desperate to refine medicine.

In the five continents, spirit stones were an important cultivation resource and trading currency.

However, spirit stones were relatively scarce. Compared to the common currency, they could be considered expensive luxury goods. A Fifth Grade spirit stone was worth tens of thousands of gold!

This was something that ordinary cultivators didn’t dare to dream of!
