However, the rewards for a "Perfect" rating are indeed generous, as you can get a lot of items; if your strength is too low and you can only reach "Acceptable", you can only get a low-grade spirit stone as a basic reward.

If you do this three times a month, the gap will widen significantly.

Shen Hua flipped his hand, and a small, green pill the size of a soybean appeared in his palm. As soon as the pill appeared, it released a rich medicinal fragrance.

【Qi Gathering Pill】

Rank: Tier 1, Low Grade

Quality: Normal

Suitable cultivation levels: Qi Refining Level 1 to Qi Refining Level 6

Core effect: Slightly accelerates spiritual energy absorption and stabilizes the foundation of meridians.

……

The Qi Gathering Pill is the most common low-grade pill in the cultivation world, with a value of about 3 spirit stones.

However, he cannot use it now; the pills must be used in conjunction with certain cultivation techniques to be absorbed.

Just as he was about to put the [Qi Gathering Pill] back into his backpack, he suddenly received a series of system notifications:

[Congratulations! You are the first player on the entire server to complete the scenario quest. You have received the reward of 3 Low-grade Spirit Stones.]

Congratulations on achieving the first "Good" rating for a scenario quest across the entire server! You have been awarded 3 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Congratulations on achieving the first "Excellent" rating for a scenario quest across the entire server! You have been awarded 5 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

Congratulations on achieving the first "Perfect" rating for a scenario quest across the entire server! You have been awarded 2 "Gathering Qi Pills".

"I didn't expect there to be a first-clear reward!" Shen Hua was both surprised and delighted as he saw the four system notifications in a row.

Although it was his second playthrough, he was unaware that there were first-time completion rewards for scenario missions.

In fact, it is normal.

The scenario quest can only be triggered solo and cannot be played in a team. This means that only two or three out of the 14 billion players in the previous game could obtain this reward, and the reward is not much, so it is normal that it has not been obtained.

This was an unexpected surprise for Shen Hua!

Upon receiving the first-clear reward, he had 21 low-grade spirit stones in his backpack and 3 Qi Gathering Pills.

"What a fruitful haul!" Shen Hua was very satisfied, and gently spurred his chestnut horse. "Let's go, Little Red."

But to his surprise, the chestnut horse stood still.

Looking at the little horse curiously, I found it turning its head, its eyes fixed on the [Qi Gathering Pill] in my hand.

Upon seeing this, Shen Hua suddenly realized.

It turns out that the chestnut horse reacted to the Qi Gathering Pill.

The Qi Gathering Pill is a miraculous elixir that has a fatal attraction not only to cultivators, but also to livestock like chestnut horses and even any living creature! It was Xiahou Dun's blind date—he fell in love at first sight.

Shen Hua patted the horse's head and laughed, "What are you looking at? You can't absorb it anyway."

But the crimson horse remained silent, its eyes fixed on the [Qi Gathering Pill], the longing in its gaze almost overflowing.

"Hmm... Here, take one." Shen Hua flicked his finger, and the pill flew precisely into the chestnut horse's mouth.

If other players saw this, they would definitely be shocked!

At this time, no one can obtain the elixir, and this may be the first elixir in the entire server!

If you're willing to trade in the newbie village, it's hard to say whether you can get an entire neighborhood offline, but you could easily get an entire building!

You just wasted it like that?!

And it's one thing for you to eat it yourself, but to feed it to a horse?!

This is no waste!

After taking the medicine, the chestnut horse was brimming with vitality. It immediately let out a long, satisfied neigh, expressing its deep gratitude to its master, Shen Hua.

Shen Hua gently stroked the horse's mane: "Now that you've taken the medicine, you'd better run faster!"

"Hiss~"

The chestnut horse spurred its hooves with all its might, instantly transforming into a powerful force, just as Shang Yang had become!

In an instant, it transformed into a red lightning bolt, rushing forward at an extremely fast speed, leaving only a red shadow on the official road.

It cannot absorb the medicinal power of the [Gathering Qi Pill]. However, precisely because it cannot absorb it, the medicinal power is entirely converted into the power to run, allowing an ordinary miniature horse to run two or three times faster than a thoroughbred!

The chestnut horse galloped forward with abandon, and in less than two hours, Shen Hua successfully reached his destination, nearly four hours faster than expected.

……

While Shen Hua was on his way, the newbie village where he had just been started to get lively.

We're in the early stages of exploration now, so everyone should focus on completing the beginner quests.

But as the quest progressed and players expanded their reach to the entire starting village and even its outskirts, many made significant discoveries:

There's a small spirit mine underground in the beginner village. The mine owner is recruiting miners to mine spirit stones, offering one low-grade spirit stone as a reward for each week's work.

There are many magical herbs in the mountains at the west end of the village, and monsters also lurk nearby;

In the valley north of the village dwells an extremely ferocious monster, which seems to be the final boss of the beginner village!

These discoveries caused a stir in the entire newbie village. Players were eager to get started, and guilds of all sizes began to be formed, ready to compete for resources.

Meanwhile, in the small square at the east end of the village, a round-faced young man scratched his head, looking at the task in his hand: "Find the village head's lost horse? The horse is chestnut red and small... but I've searched the whole village and haven't found it!"

"But I have a Heavenly Spiritual Root, should I continue wasting time on this mission?"

On a main street in the north of the village, twenty or thirty elderly men with gray hair gathered together.

The leader patted the person opposite him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Little Shen, we old brothers are counting on you in the game!"

The player he called "Little Shen" was over 50 years old, with graying temples. "Little Shen" said tremblingly, "Director Guo..."

"Hey! What, Director Guo?" The old man opposite him waved his hand, interrupting him: "In this game, the capable rise to the top. You're the boss!"

At that very moment, also in the small square at the east end of the village, a timid and delicate young girl took out a low-grade spirit stone and resolutely threw it into the coachman's arms: "I've decided, take me to Julu County in Jizhou."

The round-faced young man stood beside her.

He temporarily put aside the task that had left him with no clue, and said with a worried look, "Little sister, are you sure you want to go? Jizhou is in Hebei, thousands of miles away from here."

"Absolutely certain!" The girl's face showed determination. "It's currently February of the first year of Zhongping. Zhang Jiao will die in October. As a fan of General Tiangong, I must go and see for myself!"

……

All of the above has little to do with Shen Hua anymore.

He stood at the foot of a small hill, staring blankly at the old gate in front of him.

A sect is located on this mountain, which is named "Green Bamboo Mountain" because it is covered with a large bamboo forest.

【Qingzhu Mountain】is a medium-sized sect, but it is the smallest among medium-sized sects.

According to the rules of the cultivation world, a sect with one Golden Core cultivator can be called a medium-sized sect.

If there are Nascent Soul stage cultivators within the sect, then it is a large sect.

A sect with a Nascent Soul stage expert presiding over it is a top-tier sect.

The ranking of a sect is based solely on the strength of its strongest member, ignoring all other factors.

Shen Hua was lost in thought because he was too familiar with this sect!

In his previous life, he had a total of 50 years of gaming time, and he spent a full 30 years cultivating in this sect. He even rose to the position of Second Elder, a position within the sect second only to the Sect Leader and the First Elder.

It wasn't until the Qingzhu Mountain sect was wiped out that he became a rogue cultivator and ventured out into the world. Since then, he has never joined any sect.

Returning to this place a thousand years later, how could he not be filled with emotion?
