Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

"Come to think of it, that guy just mentioned a duel, right?"

Keqing suddenly brought it up.

"That's right..."

"Will outsiders also know about the fight between the two sects?"

"will not."

Wanran shook her head.

"Generally, this kind of situation is reported to the Immortal Alliance, and then the Immortal Alliance approves it and sends people down to witness it. Only then do the two sects start to arrange a fight. Generally, outsiders will not know unless they proactively inform the public."

"Of course, there are some big sects that actively invite outsiders to show their own strength, but we and the Cangjin Sect are not like that."

After Senior Sister Wanran said this, Keqing understood that no outsiders would know about this duel, and those who knew about it probably wouldn't be outsiders.

"What realm was that old man just now? I feel like his realm seems very strong."

"She is in the Nascent Soul stage, so she is naturally very strong."

Keqing has never seen the Nascent Soul stage, and her cultivation is different from that of ordinary people, so she can only judge the strength of others by sensing the elements. Because she has only seen the Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stages recently, she can distinguish the Foundation Establishment and the Golden Core, but she is unsure about the Nascent Soul stage.

It turns out that kind of aura is that of the Nascent Soul stage.

"I remember you once said that there was one more Yuanying stage person in the Cangjin Sect. Could it be..."

After Keqing's reminder, Wanran immediately came to her senses.

"You mean, that Yuanying stage is him?"

"Hmm... I can feel that their malicious intent became more obvious when they heard about Xuan Lei Clan."

Keqing thought for a moment and described that the old man was very strong and if she were to deal with him by herself, she might not be able to defeat him.

"Is that right?"

Wanran thought for a while and then smiled.

"Don't worry, he's just in the early stage of Yuanying. With Master here, he's just in the early stage of Yuanying."

Hearing Wanran say it so easily, Keqing nodded and didn't think about it anymore.

Wanran believed in her master so much, so she must be a very strong person. Even though she had never met her, from listening to some discussions among the sect disciples, it seemed that she was a strong woman who was very trusted. She just didn't show up often, and all the sect affairs were handled by the eldest sister Wanran, so she was rarely seen.

Since the other party was confident, Keqing felt relieved and the topic was skipped.

The two walked for a while and then wandered around for a while. They found that it was getting dark. Wanran suddenly remembered something and apologized.

"It's time to go back, but I have some pills to sell this time, so it might take a while."

"What's this?"

Keqing chuckled.

"I'll go with you!"

"Good~"

Following Wanran, Keqing soon arrived at a shop that exuded the fragrance of medicinal herbs.

The two of them entered the shop together. The old man who was reading a book at the counter quickly looked over and then smiled.

"So it's the distinguished guest who has come. Is he going to continue selling pills this time?"

"Of course I came here to sell you pills."

She expertly took out the storage bag and placed it on the counter.

The old man quickly took the storage bag with a smile and looked at it.

"Spirit-boosting pill, fortifying pill, heart-clearing powder, marrow-cleansing pill, foundation-building pill"

The more I looked at the old man, the more shocked I became.

"Your Excellency has made a big investment this time! All of these are top-grade, and there are also a few of the best! Previously I thought you were a fourth-grade alchemist, but now it seems that you have reached the fifth grade, no, maybe the sixth grade, and you are already a master of alchemy. You are really promising at a young age!"

The first and second grades are alchemy apprentices who can make elixirs for the Qi training period; the third and fourth grades are alchemists who can make elixirs for the foundation building period; and the fifth grade can make elixirs for the Golden Core period, and are called alchemy masters. The next grade is the sixth grade, the alchemy grandmaster, and if they are lucky, they can even make elixirs that can be taken by the early Nascent Soul stage.

As the saying goes, once you enter the golden elixir stage, you will be able to transcend the mortal world. When you reach the golden elixir stage, you can refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into your body to form a golden elixir. From then on, you will completely separate yourself from mortals and your lifespan will be increased by 500 years.

For this reason, the pills taken at this level are not something that can be easily refined by an alchemist. The supply of spiritual energy in the refining process alone is a big problem, let alone refining top-grade pills.

That is why the fifth-grade alchemy master and the sixth-grade alchemy grand master are much more valuable than the fourth-grade ones.

Moreover, even a fifth-grade alchemist may not be able to refine a top-quality fifth-grade elixir. Generally, only a sixth-grade one can barely refine it, and a seventh-grade one can refine it safely. Generally, these masters are in the early Nascent Soul stage, so the spiritual energy in their bodies is more than enough.

Wanran was able to refine elixirs that could only be refined at the Yuanying stage with the ability of the early Jindan stage. No wonder the old man was so amazed.

However, she seemed to have gotten used to it and just smiled.

"I was a bit busy these days and didn't go down the mountain for a while, so I accumulated a lot, because time

I had some spare time so I refined it. Who would have thought that I would be lucky enough to produce a top-grade marrow cleansing pill. "

Some good luck...

The corner of the old man's mouth twitched. Is it a matter of luck and convenience to be able to make the top-grade marrow cleansing pill?

If the other party was in the early stage of Nascent Soul, that would be nothing, but the other party is in the early stage of Golden Core!

Although he felt speechless, the old man still calculated seriously.

"Three hundred first-grade Soul-raising Pills, two hundred of the best-grade ones are priced at two thousand spirit stones, and one hundred of the best-grade ones are priced at ten thousand spirit stones; one hundred second-grade Soul-Securing Pills, fifty portions of Heart-Clearing Powder, the best-grade and the best-grade ones are priced at three thousand, ten thousand, thirty thousand, and fifty thousand respectively; the fourth-grade Foundation-Building Pills, the best-grade and the best-grade ones are priced at one hundred thousand and three hundred thousand spirit stones, and there are three Marrow-Cleansing Pills, let me see, all together, five hundred thousand spirit stones"

"The total is one million and seven thousand spirit stones. Are you going to convert it into medium-grade spirit stones this time?"

"Um"

"Okay, a total of 10,700 mid-grade spirit stones."

Ten thousand and seventy pieces, alchemy is really profitable!

Although the demand for spirit stones was not huge, Keqing had to admit that this amount of money was not a small sum.

She thought she was already a wealthy woman because of her possession of the Thunder Crystal Mine. However, compared with Wanran, her sudden wealth was nothing. She could earn it back in just over ten years of alchemy, and she would earn even more when she reached a higher level.

No wonder the other party seems to have plenty of money.

Keqing thought to herself.

However, she had indeed misunderstood. Wanran was indeed not short of money, but the same might not be true for other alchemists.

This is because the pills she refines are all high-quality and top-grade, with almost no inferior ones, and she herself is a fifth-grade master, so this is the case.

Alchemists of her strength are usually in the Nascent Soul stage, and not all of them have low- and mid-quality elixirs like the other party.

At that time, the resources required in the Nascent Soul stage were even greater, so this amount of money was nothing.

So we can only say that Wanran’s talent is too terrifying, and she is still making progress and is about to step into the sixth level.

"Let's go, it's time to go back to the sect."

"it is good."

After collecting the spirit stones, the two left the shop as the old man respectfully saw them off. Just as they were leaving, a familiar voice rang out.

"Two seniors, please wait for me!"

Chapter 31 Return to the Sect

ps: The name was typed wrong. The senior sister’s name is Wanran, not Wanran. It has been corrected.

--------------------------

"It's you."

The one who called the two was the little girl from the incident just now. The little girl seemed to have been running for a long time and was now panting and her face was red.

"Anything else?"

"Um, seniors, thank you very much just now..."

The little girl crossed her fingers, her face full of gratitude, but also a hint of trepidation in her eyes.

"If it wasn't for the senior, I would have been captured by that person."

Thinking of this, the little girl was filled with fear. She had heard that those who sold themselves into slavery usually had a bad end. Being beaten and scolded by the master was a small matter. If she died accidentally, her straw mat would be thrown into the wilderness and that would be the end of her. Fortunately, she did not want this to happen, and this was the market of the Immortal Alliance, so no one dared to force her to buy or sell. That was how she managed to hold out until the arrival of the two kind-hearted seniors.

The little girl felt that all her good luck in life had been used up here.

If it weren't for the two seniors, she would have been forced to sell herself.

"That's not necessary. I'm not helping you because I want your gratitude. I'm just following my heart."

"That's because you are kind-hearted, but others are not like that."

The little girl shook her head. Having lost both her parents and having no other worries, she had already known the warmth and coldness of life. Even though she was strong-willed and didn't want to do such despicable things, she also knew how precious it was to have someone like her senior who was willing to lend a helping hand to a stranger in this world.

"Perhaps there are disciples from big sects who still have kindness in their hearts and might try to persuade me and give me some spirit stones to help me. But it is rare to see someone like you who argues with reason and even causes trouble to help me solve my problem."

Perhaps others may think this is asking for trouble, but in her eyes, the guidance of the senior in front of her, who is gentle at heart and radiates light, is the starlight that makes her full of hope for life.

"is that so……"

Keqing felt a little uncomfortable. The little girl looked at her with burning eyes, making her feel as if she had done something big.

But she was just doing what she was supposed to do. Isn't it natural to help people in need to the best of your ability without affecting yourself?

As if she sensed that Keqing was a little embarrassed, she took the little girl's hand considerately and suddenly asked.

"Little guy, are you interested in coming to Xuan Leimen?"

"Eh?"

The little girl didn't react for a moment.

"Although that guy has been taken away, there is no guarantee that you will be in trouble again, so are you interested in coming to Xuan Leimen?"

"If he was in the sect, I don't think that guy would come to the sect."

"I'm willing."

The little girl nodded quickly. Of course she was willing. Who would want to be forced to live outside? She also wanted to join the sect. However, the little girl seemed to have thought of something and spoke hesitantly.

"But... I don't know if I have spiritual roots."

To enter a sect, one needs to have spiritual roots. What if one does not have spiritual roots? Will one not be able to enter?

Seeing the little girl pursed her lips and spoke in a cautious tone, Wanran patted her head.

"It doesn't matter. Even if you don't have spiritual roots, you can still get in as a servant. Of course, as a servant, three meals a day are provided. There are not many people in Xuan Lei Sect, and the disciples are harmonious and friendly. They will not embarrass you."

Of course, what Wanran didn't say was that given the little girl's special physique, it seemed impossible that she didn't have spiritual roots. Even if she didn't, she definitely had something that the young man coveted, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to the trouble of making up such a false accusation just to get an ordinary mortal little girl, right?

Hearing what the gentle older sister said, the little girl felt relieved and quickly expressed her willingness, even if it meant doing menial tasks.

"Then tell me, what is your name?"

"Zhenzhen, my mother named me Zhenzhen."

"The peach tree is young and luxuriant, and its leaves are dense and lush. It's a good name."

She pursed her lips and smiled.

"Then do you have anything else to take?"

"No! All my things are here."

Wanran looked at the small bag beside the other person, which was the one that had just fallen on the ground.

"That's good... let's go now."

There were two of them when they came, and three of them when they left. The eldest sister didn't feel any burden or difficulty when flying the sword. She just felt a little disappointed that she couldn't have close contact when she saw Keqing holding the little girl's hand and asking her something.

Wanran sped up her speed, and all she could see through the clouds was the little girl exclaiming exaggeratedly a few times, looking at everything under her feet with great interest.

Soon, the three returned to the sect.

"Ah, Senior Sister, you're back!"

When the big world came back, the little sister was the first to see it and started complaining.

"You didn't even take me with you to the market, and you just left me in the sect. Senior Sister is really fickle!"

Junior sister Mingyan said as she pouted and glanced at Keqing beside her.

"Hmm? Have you finished your homework? And you've finished swinging your sword a thousand times today?"
