Chapter 12: Obtaining another Luo Qi Pill
Chapter 12: Obtaining another Luo Qi Pill
As the saying goes, once is enough, twice is enough, but not a third time.
When it came to the third promise, Chen Ren finally agreed and arrived at Longyin Waterfall in the back mountain at nine o'clock that night.
"I thought you weren't coming."
Su Rentong's eyes were sharp as knives; he locked onto his target as soon as he spotted a figure carrying a flashlight in the distance.
She is currently at the fourth and a half level of Qi Condensation, and she hasn't focused on breaking through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation, all because of this man.
"Young lady, what are you doing here so late at night?"
The person who appeared was not Chen Ren, but a security guard patrolling the back mountain.
After discovering that Su Rentong was a cultivator, he gave him a few words of advice and then left.
Su Rentong's prepared explanation was disrupted, and she began to suspect that the beast was playing her tricks again and was going to stand her up again tonight.
If she stands him up again, then I'm sorry, she'll have to temporarily give up on revenge and focus on reaching the fifth level of Qi Condensation first.
[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +10]
Little did he know, Chen Ren was hiding in the bushes nearby. He had originally planned to confront Su Rentong directly, but suddenly realized that he didn't seem to need to show himself.
Why not ambush someone from behind? Why insist on facing the enemy head-on?
He didn't want to say a word to this woman, and directly swung his sword at her across the woods!
The sound of the waterfall concealed him well, and even though they were very close, Chen Ren could still draw his sword and strike her.
Having already experienced it once, this second time was naturally a familiar routine.
"cut!"
Breaking the limit and drawing the sword, the 500 points of sword-drawing value were wiped out like water being poured out. The next second, the sword light of the Calamity Sword, along with a Luo Qi Pill, reappeared in Chen Ren's sea of consciousness.
Another Luo Qi Pill in hand!
Chen Ren was overjoyed and quietly left through the woods.
On the other side, Su Rentong immediately sensed something was wrong; he felt empty inside his body again.
So familiar.
"No...that's not right!"
She suddenly sat down cross-legged and looked inside her stomach. The Luo Qi Pill that she had swallowed had vanished without a trace.
The endless supply of spiritual energy also disappeared, along with the cultivation level that had reached the fifth level of Qi Condensation!
"Who! Who is it!"
She roared like a madwoman, "Who stole my Luo Qi Pill again!!"
[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +50!]
This was a huge blow to Su Rentong. Losing the Luo Qi Pill time and time again almost shattered her Dao heart.
Su Rentong was so angry that he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ruthless, so ruthless!"
She guessed that someone was targeting her. Could it be that old hag Zhang Yunqing?
Sure enough, she still had no intention of letting him off the hook!
If she were to kill him... Realizing this, Su Rentong's expression changed drastically, and he quickly fled the scene.
Little did they know, Chen Ren was almost within arm's reach.
Another Luo Qi Pill has arrived.
Surprisingly smoothly, he quietly returned to his room and casually took out his phone to send a message to Su Rentong:
"I've thought about it, and I think we shouldn't see each other anymore. After all, we've already broken up, haven't we?"
[Ding: Sword Drawing Value +20!]
The sword-drawing value appeared very quickly; Su Rentong must have seen it.
It's a pity that you can't keep taking advantage of deals forever...
A few days later, Wang Chengxian returned home.
With a serious expression, he found Chen Ren and asked him if he could buy his Luo Qi Dan for 1023229 yuan.
He assured that once he reached the fifth level of Qi Condensation, he could make up for the remaining market price difference of several hundred thousand.
Young Master Wang is finally back.
"Why say that? I'll waive the difference for you. Senior Brother Wang, breaking through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation is the right thing to do."
There were 1023229 yuan in total, but Chen Ren felt embarrassed to take 229 yuan from him and left it for his daily life.
Wang Chengxian was extremely grateful, and his hands were trembling after receiving the Luo Qi Pill.
"By the way, don't tell Master about this."
Chen Ren earnestly instructed him, "You're a member of the Wang family, you must have a way to help me keep this a secret, right?"
"Don't worry, I know! From now on, Junior Brother, I'll protect you. If anyone dares to bully you, I, Wang Chengxian, will have someone deal with them!"
That same day, he went to find Zhang Yunqing. He explained that taking the Luo Qi Pill required the help of an elder, otherwise the abundant spiritual energy within the pill could not be properly channeled.
"Where did you get your pills?"
As usual, Zhang Yunqing asked the question, and the latter was prepared. She produced the receipt for mortgaging her own property.
"this……"
Zhang Yunqing's eyelids twitched, then she sighed:
"It's my Shangqing Palace that has wronged you. If I hadn't been injured, I could have bought you a mere Luo Qi Pill."
"Master, this disciple dares not presume to ask for anything."
Wang Chengxian said righteously, "I only hope that my master can help me reach the fifth level of Qi Condensation as soon as possible, so that I can redeem the house soon."
He didn't dare tell anyone that his family didn't know about it yet.
Wang Chengxian went to break through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation.
Chen Ren spent 100,000 yuan on Taobao to buy 10 ginseng plants that were 20 years old.
He spent another 30,000 yuan to buy a month's supply of herbal medicine and began his cultivation methodically.
He didn't dare take out the remaining Luo Qi Dan for the time being, fearing it would be discovered, and planned to hide it for a while.
Although he didn't go out, he could clearly feel that the entire Qingcheng Mountain was under heavy guard.
At night, you can see cultivators flying around in the sky, and Zhang Yunqing will occasionally fly out as well, sometimes for half a day.
At the Tianshi Cave, Su Rentong had disheveled hair, dark circles under his eyes, and exuded a crazy and repressed aura.
"Good disciple, your master will definitely help you get justice in this matter."
Wenren Yu looked at him with heartache: "Don't worry too much about it. We can just not use the Luo Qi Pill. With your talent, it won't be long before you break through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation."
"The ancient realm will be your stage then."
Su Rentong nodded numbly, then suddenly asked:
"Master, do you think this is the patriarch punishing me?"
"Should I try the Holy Grail and ask the Grandmaster? Is it wrong to just want to break through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation quickly?"
Wenren Yu shook her head and sighed, "If the Three Pure Ones were truly alive, would so many of us have died in the Ancient Realm?"
"Humanity is paramount; human will can conquer nature."
"Don't think too much about it. I bought you a hundred-year-old spiritual ginseng. Although it's not as good as the Qi Condensation Pill, it has more quantity, so it won't take much longer."
Su Rentong stopped asking questions and simply focused on his cultivation.
Time flies, and Chen Ren once again embarked on the path of cultivation.
The ginseng is really effective. After taking ten ginseng roots into a decoction, his qi and blood surged, and he became visibly stronger every day.
A month later, his blood pressure reached 369 jin!
He was already considered a second-rate martial artist, and he started refining his flesh.
Chen Ren originally thought that the ginseng and decoction could directly push his cultivation to the fourth level of the Overlapping Waves Realm, but he was overthinking it.
The further he progressed, the slower the accumulation of qi and blood became, and these treasures helped him break through the limits of the human body.
If it were just about increasing strength, that would be fine, but he was mainly focusing on refining his skin and flesh.
It trains every part of the body, improving overall performance.
Otherwise, even an ordinary person could lift a barbell weighing several hundred kilograms just by training their strength.
The waterfall behind the mountain was no longer of any use to him, so Chen Ren started to throw the fifty-pound stone lock into the air and then catch it with his body.
Each time the stone lock fell, it bruised and battered his body, but Chen Ren seemed to be using a body that wasn't his own, determined to cultivate in one breath.
By evening, covered in wounds, he began to take a medicinal bath.
This medicinal bath has been upgraded; the one-thousand-yuan one is no longer enough, so he's using the five-thousand-yuan one.
In addition to medicinal baths, he finally started buying 20-year-old Polygonum multiflorum.
The balance in my wallet and the sword-drawing points are being consumed rapidly.
He regularly cuts off the toxins from the Polygonum multiflorum in his body every three to five days, otherwise he will have serious problems.
With no one left to help him farm sword points, Wang Chengxian broke through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation, leaving only Ren Renren, a girl, and himself, making it truly difficult for him to support the group alone.
We need to find a way, find some people, and find something to do.
