Longevity Fairy: Sister, Please Wait A Little Longer
Chapter 9 009: Senior Sister Xiao Is Back
Chapter 9 009: Senior Sister Xiao Returns
Shortly after, Chu Bai sat under the eaves outside the house, holding a brand new storage bag in his hands, his gaze fixed on the medicine garden beyond.
The spirit stones on the table were gone, but there was a new storage bag.
Inside the storage bag were spirit stones, not just a hundred or two hundred, but a whole five hundred!
Underneath the bag was a note that said: "Don't try to be clever anymore. Work hard in your cultivation. When I have time, I will come and check your progress. If I'm not satisfied, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents."
The handwriting was very nice, delicate and elegant.
This was a note left by Aunt Nan, full of the tone of an elder.
Chu Bai sold leaves, focusing on quantity rather than quality. Each time he went out, he could bring back about thirty to forty spirit stones. He would go out at least once a month, and at most three times.
But no matter how many times he went out, it couldn't compare to getting five hundred spirit stones for free.
"So, I finally received a bit of blessing from the family?"
Chu Bai said, "Aunt Nan in black clothes, wearing a veil so I couldn't see her face clearly. Huh?... I don't have any impression of what this aunt looks like, I only remember that her figure is pretty good."
"Hey, she's an elder. Right now, I should be thinking about whether these five hundred Low Grade spirit stones are enough for me to reach the fifth level of Qi Refining, and how to make the Sect Master of Azure Cloud Sect pleased a few more times."
In his daily routine of weeding and catching bugs, Chu Bai poured the collected dead branches and leaves into the "decomposition pool."
With all hidden injuries healed, Chu Bai felt much lighter. Although he hadn't reached the stage of Qi Refining fifth level, absorbing spiritual energy could offset some of the physical consumption. Just eating some dry food every day would suffice.
After a while, he put the storage bag and spirit stones given by Aunt Nan into a hidden compartment, then returned to his bed and entered a state of cultivation.
Calm the mind, focus the qi.
The slight pain was still there, but the feedback from the circulation of spiritual power in his body was excellent.
Chu Bai took out the ten Low Grade spirit stones he usually carried with him and thought, "I'll use these ten spirit stones to test the consumption of the Spirit Gathering Array."
Activating the Bone Forging Technique, the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array in the Innate Cave Mansion was triggered: 1.01.21.42.0.
In this way, Chu Bai's cultivation speed would be on par with an ordinary Qi Refining fourth level cultivator.
After an hour, one of the spirit stones placed next to Chu Bai shattered and turned into powder.
In the second hour, another spirit stone turned into powder.
Chu Bai slowed down his cultivation speed to 1.6, and one spirit stone lasted for two and a half hours.
From dawn to dusk, Chu Bai remained in meditation.
The ten Low Grade spirit stones were definitely gone.
The result showed that setting the enhancement of the Spirit Gathering Array in the Innate Cave Mansion to 1.5 had the highest cost-effectiveness. One spirit stone could last for nearly three hours.
Chu Bai's physical fitness was there. The highest cost-effectiveness would be to cultivate for six hours a day. By this calculation, with ordinary cultivation, five hundred Low Grade spirit stones could last for almost half a year.
Chu Bai rubbed his smooth chin and said, "I have to set aside the spirit stones needed to break through the barrier. Subtracting two hundred, I have three hundred left."
"And with the continuous recovery of my Spirit Vein, the demand for spiritual energy will increase, so the speed of consuming spirit stones will also increase."
According to Chu Bai's theory, cultivation speed = base value × enhancement of the Spirit Gathering Array in the Innate Cave Mansion.
The current speed was 4 × 1.5, which was 60% of an ordinary cultivator's speed.
In the future, as the Spirit Vein recovered, the amount of spiritual energy he could absorb during his own cultivation would become closer to that of an ordinary cultivator, and the 1.5 times amount would naturally increase.
"Maybe two months, I'll try to break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining within two months."
Just as he was thinking this--
"Ding~"~
Hint: The mysterious senior's favorability towards you has increased, and the current favorability is half a star.
"Ding~"
Hint: Due to having more than three people with karmic relationships with you, the system has activated a new function.
Immediately, a new option [Karma] appeared next to the system's personal panel, and when clicked, there were a total of four pieces of information.
[Ning Wanqiu]: Azure Cloud Sect's Sect Master, named Dao companion, at the peak of the Soul Formation Stage, for unknown reasons has developed a favorable impression towards you, and the current favorability is one star.
[Xiao Qingrou]: Azure Cloud Sect's inner disciple, your senior sister, at the early stage of the Foundation Building Stage (late stage), childhood sweetheart, mutually dependent with you after the passing of your parents, and the current favorability is three stars.
[Mysterious senior]: Suspected elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, cultivation level unknown, for unknown reasons has developed a favorable impression towards you, and the current favorability is half a star.
[Shi Lei]: Azure Cloud Sect's inner disciple, son of the Medicine Peak's elder, at the middle stage of the Foundation Building Stage, harbors hatred towards you due to admiring Xiao Qingrou, and the current animosity is four stars!
Just as Chu Bai was about to relax and take a nap, he exclaimed, "What the hell!"
This new function is reminding him that although the system is not all-powerful, it is quite impressive?
The system is unclear why Sect Master Ning has developed a favorable impression towards Chu Bai, nor does it know the specific identity of the Aunt Nan who came the night before yesterday.
However, it can sense the existence of Chu Bai's love rival from a distance.
"Shi Lei. Surname Shi."
What a terrifying surname!
Chu Bai carefully looked again and confirmed that the elder's son was not named Shi Hao, which put his mind at ease.
Surnames Xiao, Lin, Ye, and Shi are all terrifying.
Back then, in order to prevent himself from forgetting those classic lines he planned to use when leaving the mountain, Chu Bai simply wrote down scenes like "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the young and poor" and hid them in a secret compartment together with the precious spirit stone.
"I am currently at the fourth level of Qi Refining, while Shi Lei is at the middle stage of Foundation Building. It's still early. When I break through Foundation Building, I'll have to see if this guy dares to say 'do not bully the young and poor.' If he does, I'll wipe out his entire family!"
Thinking of the secret compartment, Chu Bai rolled out of bed and checked again.
The storage bag containing five hundred Low Grade spirit stones was still there, as well as the handwritten book for recording inspiration.
However,
Chu Bai discovered traces of the booklet being flipped through.
Especially the pages about the relationship between a mature woman and an aunt, they had obvious creases.
"Oh, I understand now. Auntie got angry after reading these."
Chu Bai suddenly realized, "Auntie is a senior expert. Next time, I have to explain clearly. What Auntie said was about a thirty-year-old sister, not me. I just heard it from others. If I really had to resort to it for survival, what bad intentions could a sixteen-year-old ignorant boy have?"
Outside the Azure Cloud Sect,
A woman dressed in a light blue robe presented her identity token to apply for entry.
The disciple guarding the mountain accepted the token and let her pass.
After the woman left, the disciple responsible for verification asked the person next to him in a low voice, "Senior brother, who was that senior sister just now? She seemed a bit arrogant."
The senior disciple beside him said, "You've only just joined, so it's normal that you don't know Senior Sister Xiao. Xiao Qingrou, Senior Sister Xiao, is the personal disciple of Elder Peng in the inner sect, the kind that inherits the mantle, understand?
And Senior Sister Xiao was already famous for her aloofness when she was in the outer sect. In the previous outer sect competition, Senior Sister Xiao, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, defeated two senior brothers at the ninth level of Qi Refining and entered the inner sect as the first-place winner.
Everyone thought that Senior Sister Xiao would join Sword Peak, the strongest peak in the inner sect, but unexpectedly, she chose to specialize in cultivating as a physician, pharmacist, and alchemist in the Medicine Peak."
The young disciple at the gate wanted to speak but was interrupted by his senior brother, "Listen to me. Senior Sister Xiao joined the Medicine Peak and within a year, she refined a High Grade Foundation Building Pill. She was accepted as a personal disciple by Elder Peng. In the second year, which was last year, she actually independently refined a Supreme Grade Foundation Building Pill at the ninth level of Qi Refining!"
"Has Senior Sister Xiao reached the Foundation Building Stage?"
"Of course. A Supreme Grade Foundation Building Pill can increase the success rate of Foundation Building by a full fifty percent. Everyone says that within a hundred years, Senior Sister Xiao will have the opportunity to break through to the Gold Core stage!"
