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

"We must make use of this gourd and find a way to get a batch of Body Refining Pills." After finishing his cultivation, Chen Huai'an did not drink the spiritual spring water from the gourd to continue his practice.

Even if you want to cultivate yourself, you have to find the right method, instead of just doing it blindly.

Why is a mixed spiritual root of the five elements considered a useless spiritual root in the cultivation world? Because this kind of aptitude is a money pit.

The world of cultivation is even more cruel than the secular world, where scholars are poor and warriors are rich. Without cultivation resources, one's cultivation will stagnate.

Body Refining Pills are among the lowest-grade pills in the cultivation world, but even so, Chen Huai'an can't afford them right now.

There are two ways to obtain Body Refining Pills: one is to buy them yourself, and the other is to complete sect tasks. Every month, the sect will give one Body Refining Pill to the menial disciples.

You can purchase them yourself, which requires spirit stones or sect contribution points. Completing tasks will reward you with sect contribution points and spirit stones.

Right now, Chen Huai'an is a complete novice, penniless, with no contribution points, no spirit stones, and can't even buy body-refining pills.

"There must be a solution; we must find a way to get the elixir," Chen Huai'an muttered to himself.

"Hey, the spiritual spring water in my gourd is equivalent to a Body Refining Pill. I can take this spiritual spring water out to sell, exchange it for spirit stones, and then buy Body Refining Pills. I can then use the purple gourd to upgrade its grade." Chen Huai'an thought of a solution.

The speed at which the spiritual spring water could improve his cultivation was limited. If he were to use a body-refining pill instead, even the lowest-grade low-level body-refining pill, he could improve its grade and accelerate his cultivation speed.

Now that he has decided to sell the spiritual spring water, it is impossible for him to go out now. He has to wait until mealtime, when there are more people, so he can inquire about it and decide what to do next.

Chen Huai'an cultivated in the stone chamber for a while longer before leaving when it was time for lunch.

However, before setting off, he prepared an earthenware jar and filled it with some spiritual spring water.

Chen Huai'an is really poor now; he doesn't even have bottles or jars to hold water.

Upon arriving at the cafeteria, Chen Huai'an did not act rashly, but instead quietly observed.

Even among the outer sect servants, these people were divided into many small groups.

In short, people of similar tastes tend to group together.

People with exceptional talent are always the object of envy, flattery, and fawning wherever they go.

Less than two days later, news of who had good aptitude, who had poor aptitude, and what kind of background they had spread throughout the Miscellaneous Service Peak.

In particular, the winners of the top three in the seven-day test for newcomers to the sect quickly became known.

This was something that even Chen Huai'an hadn't anticipated.

As for him, he had mixed spiritual roots of the five elements, which was considered a useless spiritual root. This was widely known in the sect, and he was considered the worst among them.

Chen Huai'an was too embarrassed to mention in front of others that he was the useless person with mixed spiritual roots of the five elements that people talked about.

"What did you say? This is spiritual spring water?" a tall, thin man asked, looking at the broken earthenware jar in Chen Huai'an's hand.

"I found this by chance in a cave on the mountain. Drinking this water can improve one's health," Chen Huai'an said carefully, choosing his words.

"Everyone come and see! This spiritual spring water can improve one's constitution, is it true?" Most of the servant disciples around were young and couldn't keep secrets. After hearing Chen Huai'an's explanation, they immediately started shouting in the crowd.

Soon, a number of servant disciples gathered around Chen Huai'an to watch the spectacle.

Chen Huai'an frowned as he looked at the servant disciple with the face of an emperor and a loud voice.

He just wanted to ask around about how to sell the spiritual spring water, but he didn't expect it to attract so many onlookers.

Suddenly, a burly young man, surrounded by several followers, came up to Chen Huai'an from the crowd.

"Excuse me, isn't this the spiritual spring water I lost? You have some nerve, brat, to steal my spiritual spring water."

As soon as the man finished speaking, not only did Chen Huai'an's expression change, but the onlookers nearby also looked at the burly young man in front of them with fear.

This person is named Zhang Hu, and he is an outer disciple of the Miscellaneous Service Peak.

Zhang Hu possesses a mid-grade fire spirit root, has a fiery temper, and is a member of the Zhang family, a family of cultivators. He is the kind of person who acts arrogantly on the Miscellaneous Service Peak.

Having entered the sect two years earlier, he has now reached the first level of Body Refinement. He swaggers around on the Miscellaneous Disciples Peak, often bullying some newly initiated miscellaneous disciples.

Sure enough, the moment Chen Huai'an revealed the spiritual spring water, he was targeted by the other party.

"You're talking nonsense. I found this spiritual spring water in the mountains." Chen Huai'an's face turned bright red.

I really didn't check the almanac before going out today. I originally wanted to sell the spiritual spring water I had in exchange for a few low-grade body-refining pills, but unexpectedly, I didn't sell anything and instead got into a lot of trouble.

Chen Huai'an had heard about Zhang Hu when he entered Zayi Peak. There was a local tyrant on Zayi Peak named Zhang Hu. It was said that one should not offend him and should take a detour if one encountered him.

Zhang Hu glanced around, then stared coldly at Chen Huai'an. "You discovered it? Tell me, whose spirit spring water is this?"

"You piece of trash! This spiritual spring water was clearly bought by Young Master Zhang at the sect's market. You, the thief, stole it while things were in chaos. If you know what's good for you, return this spiritual spring water to Young Master Zhang. Otherwise, if this matter goes to the sect's enforcement hall, you will have your cultivation crippled and be expelled from the Qingyun Sect." A boy with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks looked at Chen Huai'an with disdain.

Zhang Hu's henchmen joined in, launching a barrage of verbal attacks against Chen Huai'an, speaking as if it were the truth.

Chen Huai'an's face turned bright red, and his fists clenched tightly.

Suddenly, Zhang Hu unleashed a terrifying pressure that pressed down on Chen Huai'an.

The teenagers who were watching the commotion felt the pressure emanating from Zhang Hu, who was at the first level of the Body Refinement Realm. They turned pale with fright and kept retreating.

Chen Huai'an, who was locked onto by Zhang Hu's aura, felt his hair stand on end, as if he were being stared at by a wild beast in the mountains.

Chen Huai'an cursed inwardly. "Damn it, is this what a Body Refinement Realm Immortal Master is like? He's truly terrifying."

In Huai Shu Village, Chen Huai'an was able to put up some resistance against Su Daqiang due to his strong physique. However, now, facing Zhang Hu, who was at the first level of the Body Refinement Realm, he couldn't muster the slightest desire to resist.

The difference between immortals and mortals is truly enormous.

"To hand it over or not?" Zhang Hu stared intently at Chen Huai'an.

Chen Huai'an was also weighing his options: should he hand over the spiritual spring water or not?

In this situation, if a conflict arises, it seems he won't gain any advantage whatsoever.

"Senior Brother Zhang, since you want this spiritual spring water, I'll give it to you." Chen Huai'an's fist was clenched tightly, but he quickly relaxed it.

It's just a jar of spiritual spring water. Let's just consider it a favor to the beggar. We'll get our revenge when he's achieved some success in his cultivation.

"Haha... Kid, you're smart to be so sensible." Zhang Hu didn't expect Chen Huai'an to be so understanding. He hadn't even had a chance to beat him up yet, and this guy was already willing to hand over the spiritual spring water.

But his trouble with Chen Huai'an wasn't because he coveted the jar of spiritual spring water; rather, he wanted to know the origin of the water.

Spiritual spring water is a renewable resource. If the Zhang family could control a spiritual spring, it would bring them endless benefits, whether for refining pills and medicines or cultivating spiritual plants.

Now that Chen Huai'an has handed over the spiritual spring water and is willing to settle things peacefully, he is momentarily at a loss as to how to deal with Chen Huai'an.

"Give it to me. You dare to steal Young Master Zhang's things? You really don't know what's good for you." Zhang Hu's henchman grabbed the jar from Chen Huai'an's hand and spat at him fiercely.
