You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

Li Fugui had been working on the Miscellaneous Service Peak for nearly sixty years, so he understood the rules and regulations of the sect.

If he hadn't been a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong, and if he had even a shred of courage, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

When Chen Huai'an returned to the backyard, he did nothing. Li Fugui took care of fetching water for him. The old man was quite capable; he did it flawlessly, and no one noticed anything amiss.

However, by doing this, he only made things harder for himself. He had already been injured by Chen Huai'an, and his injuries hadn't fully healed yet. Now, he had to help Chen Huai'an carry water, and he had even less time to cultivate.

If he didn't do this, he would have no face to save and would be laughed at.

Chen Huai'an didn't entirely rely on Old Man Li to help him fetch water. Every day, he would still go to the pool to fetch a little water, but actually, he was going to collect spiritual spring water.

Even if it's just helping Old Man Li carry a load of water, the old man is still incredibly grateful to him.

"No need to fetch water anymore, and I have plenty of time to cultivate. Today, I'll be able to break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement in one go." After these few days of accumulation, Chen Huai'an had a premonition that he would be able to break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement today.

Once he breaks through, he will be able to stand out in the challenge competition for menial disciples.

No one ever complains about having too many cultivation resources, especially sect contribution points, which can only be obtained by completing tasks.

Of course, if he had enough spirit stones, he could buy them, but he couldn't freely enter and leave the Qingyun Sect right now. He could only try his best to break through to the Qi Refining Realm as soon as possible and become an outer disciple.

"Young Master Chen, Zhang Biao from the Zhang family is asking about you." Old Man Li returned from fetching water and found Chen Huai'an.

The fact that the Zhang family was causing trouble for Chen Huai'an was a good thing for Li Fugui. As long as the Zhang family killed Chen Huai'an, he wouldn't have to secretly help Chen Huai'an fetch water in the backyard of the canteen anymore.

However, after careful consideration, he finally decided to tell Chen Huai'an about it.

Anyway, he won't offend either side, let them fight like dogs, and he can reap the benefits.

"As far as I know, Zhang Biao is a master ranked ninety-eighth on the Spirit Ranking." Li Fugui said, while cautiously looking at Chen Huai'an.

If Chen Huai'an showed even the slightest fear in his eyes, he would have thrown himself into the Zhang family's arms without hesitation and killed that bastard. He's an old man, yet he still went so far as to use such force. Now he even makes him carry water every day. How can anyone live like this?

"Ninety-eighth place?" Chen Huai'an frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed.

The top 100 experts on the Spirit Ranking are indeed very powerful, but now that he has signed up for the challenge of the Miscellaneous Service Peak, even Zhang Biao cannot make a move against him a month before the start of the competition.

"Those who can make it into the top 500 of the Spirit Ranking are all elites, and those who make it into the top 100 are the elite of the elite. If he comes to cause you trouble, you simply cannot withstand him. The top 100 experts on the Spirit Ranking are beyond our imagination." Li Fugui said calmly when he saw that Chen Huai'an did not show any fear.

"I know," Chen Huai'an said with a faint smile.

He wasn't afraid at all as long as the other party didn't resort to underhanded tactics.

He wasn't afraid even if they used underhanded tactics. He was only displaying the cultivation of the fourth level of the mid-stage Body Refinement Realm. As long as the opponent underestimated him and didn't go all out, he wasn't afraid at all.

Even if they send out henchmen, their cultivation level won't be too high, which is perfect for them to play dumb and take advantage of others.

"What's going on? He's a powerful figure ranked in the top 100 of the Spirit Ranking. Isn't he afraid? Or is he just putting on a brave face in front of me?" Li Fugui frowned when he saw Chen Huai'an return to his room to cultivate without showing any emotion.

"No, regardless of whether this guy is faking it or not, we have to let Young Master Zhang test him. Being able to get on the good side of the Zhang family will be helpful for my future cultivation."

Chen Huai'an didn't take Zhang Biao seriously at all. He had plenty of time to grow, and no one could say for sure what would happen a month from now.

Now, Chen Huai'an only needs to focus on cultivation.

"Have you noticed that Old Man Li's water-carrying speed hasn't been as fast as before these past two days? What's going on?" Liu Qiaogui often bumped into Li Fugui when carrying water, and he rarely saw Chen Huai'an, not even in the canteen.

"Liu Qiaogui, I heard you're quite familiar with the handymen disciples at the breeding farm. I'd like you to help me get some eggs to nourish myself. I feel like I'm about to break through to the mid-stage of the Body Refinement Realm," Chen Huai'an said to Liu Qiaogui.

Originally, he planned to go into seclusion today to break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement. However, after consuming a large number of high-grade Body Refinement Pills, it seemed that his body developed resistance, or that his blood and qi were insufficient. He has been unable to break through to the seventh level of the late stage of Body Refinement for a long time.

Now, he also understands why some of the menial disciples are stuck at the sixth level of the mid-stage Body Refinement realm and cannot break through. It's not that they haven't accumulated enough experience, but rather that in addition to tempering the impurities in the body, an important aspect of Body Refinement is replenishing the power of Qi and blood.

Without the replenishment of Qi and blood, one is overdrawing their potential. The speed of cultivation may be fast in the early stages, but later, because the Qi and blood cannot be supplied, one will not be able to break through at all.

The spiritual food at the Miscellaneous Peak canteen is not available every day. Without the aid of spiritual food in cultivation, one's qi and blood cannot keep up, and one must take pills to replenish qi and blood, such as pills to strengthen the foundation and nourish the source.

However, elixirs are only external forces that can help you break through bottlenecks, but to build a solid foundation, you still need to consume spiritual food to replenish your qi and blood.

Food is the most important thing for people, and the same is true in the cultivation world, especially for low-level cultivators, who need a huge amount of blood and qi to temper their bodies.

Now, Chen Huai'an regrets it a little. Last time he went to the market of Qingyun Sect, he bought Peiyuan Pills but not Qixue Pills. With Qixue Pills, he wouldn't have to worry about his Qi and blood strength.

The sect sells pills, but it's not convenient for Chen Huai'an to sell them.

What he needs is a stable supply of resources, not to sell his valuable assets and attract the attention of unscrupulous people.

"Do you have any spirit stones? If you do, I can help you." Liu Qiaogui smiled and nodded. He also wanted to get some good things to replenish his strength. If it weren't for the support from his family, he wouldn't have been able to break through so quickly.

"I only have one low-grade spirit stone and two low-grade body-refining pills. These body-refining pills aren't very helpful for my current cultivation level. I want to exchange them for something to replenish my qi and blood. If I can get a spirit bird, that would be best. If not, some spirit bird eggs would be good too." Chen Huai'an took out his monthly salary for doing odd jobs.

Chen Huai'an's greatest desire was for spirit bird eggs. If he could hatch them in his spatial dimension, wouldn't he be able to raise spirit birds there?

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this. The spirit stones and body-refining pills aren't enough for the spirit birds, but I can get you a few spirit bird eggs to try." Liu Qiaogui assured him, patting his chest.

"Thank you so much," Chen Huai'an said with a smile.

Living creatures, given Chen Huai'an's current cultivation level, cannot be sent into his spatial dimension. However, eggs are different. Chen Huai'an can bring eggs into his spatial dimension to hatch them into chickens, and then let them eat the spiritual grain husks in the spatial dimension. Ideally, they should lay a few eggs every day to supplement their nutrition.
