Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 47 Uses and News of Wasted Pills
There are still such things as waste pills among mortals, but they are different from those in "A Hundred Refinements to Become Immortal".

Even the elixirs that have been scrapped during refining still contain spiritual energy, but they contain a lot of impurities.

It is no longer suitable for consumption by cultivators. In most cases, it will be fed to the spiritual beasts raised within the sect.

The impurities in the elixir have little effect on spiritual beasts, but the spiritual energy and medicinal power contained in it also have certain benefits for spiritual beasts.

Of course, there is another way, which is to distribute it to low-level cultivators. For example, elixirs that are beneficial to cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage may still be of some use to cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage after they are scrapped.

However, it contains a lot of impurities, and it is rather troublesome to refine. What's worse, some of it will remain in the meridians, affecting cultivation, which is not worth the effort.

But after all, it is not useless, so it is not easy to get a large amount of waste pills.

Although Xin Ruyin didn't understand why Zhao Shuang wanted to destroy the pill, since Zhao Shuang had asked, she would not refuse, so she nodded and agreed without much hesitation.

"Okay, senior, don't worry. I can leave this matter to you. But I'm afraid it will take quite a while. I hope you can wait a little longer."

"That's no problem. You just need to ask around a bit. If you can't find out anything, that's fine. It's nothing. I just want to help the spirit beast on me cultivate and advance."

Zhao Shuang immediately found an excuse.

"I see, this junior understands."

Hearing this, Xin Ruyin had no doubts and nodded slightly.

Afterwards, Zhao Shuang gave the two some guidance on their cultivation. At the same time, he also gave them some unnecessary elixirs that were helpful for the Qi Refining cultivators to practice, which made the master and servant very grateful.

After a short rest, the three of them left the Fangshi Inn. With Zhao Shuang around, they didn't have to worry about being followed.

……

After half a day, the three of them settled down in the Tianxing Sect market again. Compared with the Huangfeng Valley market, Xin Ruyin was much more familiar with the Tianxing Sect market than Zhao Shuang.

After all, the master and servant were both cultivators from the Yuanwu Kingdom. As for the Tianxing Sect market, which had the most formation materials nearby, they were naturally more familiar with it than Zhao Shuang.

After settling the master and servant properly and giving them the spirit beasts.

Zhao Shuang then returned to Huangfeng Valley, but did not go back to his cave directly. Instead, he asked someone for information about the waste pill.

There are not many disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage in Huangfeng Valley, and most of them are either practicing in seclusion, traveling, or carrying out missions.

Therefore, if you want to find out the information, you have to find a disciple in the Qi Refining Stage.

……

Among the many Qi Refining disciples in Huangfeng Valley, the one who is best informed and most tight-lipped is Wu Feng, the one who teaches other disciples magic in the training hall.

This person is a foreign affairs disciple at the thirteenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, and is also the only one among mortals who can be called a gentleman.

He treats all his disciples equally and teaches magic to the best of his ability without reservation. He is the only person Zhao Shuang admires.

"Waste Pills, Junior Brother, you want to use waste pills to cultivate, but this is not a good idea. In the past, those who used waste pills to cultivate, because of the impurities blocking the meridians, even if they later obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill, no one was able to successfully establish the foundation. Therefore, unless you know that there is no hope of advancing and that you cannot successfully establish the foundation, you will not choose to use waste pills to cultivate."

"Junior brother, you've already reached the twelfth level of Qi Refining at such a young age. There's no need to ruin your future. Forget it. With your aptitude, I believe that with another five or six years of hard work, you'll be able to break through to the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. Then, if you participate in the sect competition and place in the top ten, you'll also receive the Foundation Establishment Pill."

"Perhaps, I can successfully establish my foundation with this and become a senior uncle in the foundation-building stage. There's no need to be greedy for a momentary gratification and cause failure in the future foundation-building. Besides, it's not like there aren't other elixirs within the sect."

Wu Feng persuaded earnestly.

"Brother, I understand what you mean. However, do you know where the waste pills are? Does Qilin Pavilion have any waste pills?"

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang did not give up and continued to ask. At this time, Zhao Shuang casually changed into a Qi Refining Stage disciple and asked Wu Feng.

After all, time is running out and he must break through as quickly as possible, as fast as possible, at all costs.

"As for Qilin Pavilion, Junior Brother should have been there before, right?"

Seeing this, Wu Feng said something meaningful.

"I couldn't hide it from you, Senior Brother. I did go there first. But the Senior Brother from Qilin Pavilion said that there is an order within the sect not to sell waste pills. Every waste pill is recorded."

Zhao Shuang nodded and admitted it with a wry smile.

If Qilin Pavilion is willing to sell it, he doesn't mind spending some spirit stones in exchange for the waste pill.

But even with the identity of a Foundation Establishment Stage uncle, the Qilin Pavilion disciples still refused to sell it, and even asked the Qilin Pavilion's Core Formation Stage cultivators to leave.

He couldn't continue to pester her, so he just patted his butt and left.

Then, he came to ask Wu Feng.

"Indeed, Qilin Pavilion keeps a record of every wasted pill. Since the Blood Trial just ended, there are certainly quite a few wasted pills within the sect. However, without the order of the Sect Master or a Jindan-stage Grand Master, they are not allowed to be sold to any Qi Refining-stage disciple. If you truly want a wasted pill, you can ask the Sect Master. Remember, don't say you're taking it yourself; find an excuse, like feeding it to a spirit beast! Even if you do get a wasted pill, try not to consume it, to avoid affecting your future Foundation Establishment."

Wu Feng reminded with a serious face.

Because he could see that Zhao Shuang in front of him would not give up until he got the waste pill.

As for this, the shopkeeper of Huangfeng Valley would definitely not agree to it. In the end, he would only be reprimanded or even given a slight punishment or warning.

But Wu Feng would not remind him of this.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Wu Feng. I'll take my leave."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shuang immediately stood up and thanked him.

After saying that, he couldn't wait to leave.

If the Qi Refining disciples won’t give it to him, then the Foundation Establishment disciples can use up their elixirs to feed the spirit beasts. That should be fine, right?

Soon, the imperial weapon flew to the council hall.

The two young disciples guarding the gate obviously did not know Zhao Shuang, but they could tell at a glance that he was in the Foundation Establishment stage!
So, the two of them stepped forward together, bowed and said, "Uncle Master, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Is the headmaster here?" Zhao Shuang asked directly without much politeness.

Upon hearing this, the two Qi Refining disciples couldn't help but look at each other. Then the person on the right replied, "The Sect Leader has gone to the Baiji Hall to do some work, but he should be back soon! Otherwise, Uncle Master, please go to the hall and wait for a while?"

Zhao Shuang frowned slightly, but immediately returned to normal and said in a nonchalant tone: "Okay! In that case, I'll just wait!"

"Okay! Uncle Master, please come this way!" The other person was also very smart. He took two steps back and led the way for him.

Following this person, Zhao Shuang crossed the hall and was brought into a slightly larger main room.

This house is not only clean and tidy, but also has some calligraphy and paintings hung on the four walls, exuding an elegant and scholarly atmosphere.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang sat down and waited for the arrival of the head of Huangfeng Valley, but he couldn't help feeling nervous.
