Ten Thousand Times Return: My Senior Sister Plucked Me At The Start

Xing Ziyue, Human Race, Solitary Fiend Body, Core Formation Level Ten, Favorability: 60, can be bound.

Seeing Xing Ziyue's information in the system interface, Zhao Mu was slightly stunned.

He thought that after being tricked by him, Xing Ziyue's favorability would definitely be very low. He didn't expect it to reach the standard.

Since that was the case, should he bind her?

Under normal circumstances, with Xing Ziyue's strange personality, Zhao Mu wasn't confident that he could get her favorability to 100 points.

However, after binding the system, it was different. As long as he gave her a gift, there would be additional favorability increase. It was just a matter of how much.

This meant that as long as he could bind her, there would be a day when Zhao Mu could max out the favorability of the bound target and there wouldn't be a problem of occupying the returning quota for a long time.

Anyway, he had only used two of the ten binding quotas.

After thinking about it, Zhao Mu waved his hand and bound Xing Ziyue as the returning target.

It just so happened that Niu Yulan hadn't used the returning quota for today.

Zhao Mu rummaged through his storage ring and took out two seventh-grade Mixed Yuan Pills.

This Mixed Yuan Pill was a top grade pill for increasing cultivation. Fan Deng only kept five of them and gave them all to Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu wasn't in a hurry to give them away, but now he wanted to compete for the top three in the rankings. He felt that he was still a little lacking and needed to take this opportunity to temporarily increase his strength.

If he gave away two seventh-grade Mixed Yuan Pills, he could return two eighth-grade Mixed Yuan Pills. Although he didn't know how much it would increase his strength, the effect shouldn't be bad.

"It's rare that I'm happy today. I'll give these two seventh-grade Mixed Yuan Pills to the two of you. I hope that you can live in harmony and support each other."

As Zhao Mu spoke, he stuffed the pills into the hands of the two of them.

Niu Yulan wanted to decline, but Xing Ziyue couldn't wait to accept the pills.

Good heavens, she didn't expect this little junior brother to be so generous. He gave her seventh-grade pills for free?

"Ding, you gave Niu Yulan a seventh-grade Mixed Yuan Pill, triggering 500 times return. You received an eighth-grade Mixed Yuan Pill."

"Niu Yulan's favorability + 20."

"Ding! Niu Yulan's favorability has reached 100 points. She will be permanently bound to the host and will no longer occupy the binding slot. Her favorability is locked at 100 points and will be effective forever."

"Ding … you have gifted Xing Ziyue a Level 7 Mixed Energy Pill, triggering a 3,000 times reward. You have received a Level 9 Heavenly Energy Pill."

"Xing Ziyue's favorable impression + 2"

The continuous system notifications made Zhao Mu happy.

The little heifer's favorability had exceeded 100 in such a short time. Moreover, the benefits of exceeding 100 were more than Zhao Mu had imagined. In addition to being permanently bound and not taking up a slot, it actually locked the favorability. Didn't this mean that no matter what Zhao Mu did to Niu Yulan in the future, her favorability would not decrease?

Zhao Mu suddenly felt that this might be the most powerful aspect of the refund system.

After her favorability broke through 100, Niu Yulan looked at Zhao Mu in a different light.

In addition to adoration, there was also a sense of worship and faith.

She could take a blow for Zhao Mu without hesitation. If Zhao Mu died, she would definitely die with him.

This was the value of 100% favorable impression points.

Of course, Zhao Mu was not an ungrateful scumbag. Since Niu Yulan had given her all, Zhao Mu would treat her well with sincerity. If he got anything good in the future, he would definitely give it to her first.

As for Xing Ziyue … a Level 7 Heavenly Energy Pill could only be exchanged for two favorability points.

"Let's go. Let's find a place first. I need to go into seclusion for a while."

A Level 9 Heavenly Energy Pill was a good thing. It contained a large amount of spiritual energy and Heavenly Energy. It was a super nourishing item for cultivators.

After refining the Heavenly Energy Pill, Zhao Mu's strength would definitely rise to another level. Next, he could focus on hunting Heaven Stage demonic beasts.

Half of the five days of hunting had passed. It was not the time to continue hunting.

Not long later, the three of them found a hidden cave. The two girls were in charge of guarding Zhao Mu. Zhao Mu took out the Heavenly Energy Pill and swallowed it. He sat cross-legged on the ground and began refining it.

The Heavenly Essence Pill was indeed a ninth-grade pill. Its medicinal power was so strong that Zhao Mu could clearly feel it as soon as he swallowed it.

However, no matter how strong the pill was, it didn't seem so special under his Sacred Crimson Sun Physique and the Human Emperor's bloodline.

Ordinary cultivators wouldn't have such a smooth process when swallowing a ninth-grade pill. They might have to experience unbearable pain. Their meridians might even be torn apart because they couldn't withstand the medicinal power.

However, Zhao Mu's breathing only quickened a little, and his body heated up a little.

The entire refining process lasted less than two hours.

When the medicinal power was completely refined, Zhao Mu awkwardly discovered that the great improvement he expected didn't happen.

He only broke through from the fifth level of the Core Formation realm to the sixth level.

"This pill must be fake …"

Zhao Mu was speechless.

This was a ninth-grade pill.

An ordinary Core Formation cultivator might be able to break through to the Nascent Soul realm after taking one.

Why was the effect so terrible for him?

Zhao Mu carefully checked his body's condition and quickly found out the reason.

It was actually very simple.

If his physique and bloodline were ordinary, this Heavenly Essence Pill might really allow him to break through to the Nascent Soul realm in one go.

However, he had the Sacred Crimson Sun Physique and the Human Emperor's bloodline. He could eat too much.

When he was in the Foundation Establishment realm, the spiritual energy he consumed to break through was hundreds or thousands of times more than others. Now that his Sacred Crimson Sun Physique and the Human Emperor's bloodline had been strengthened to a certain extent, the consumption was even greater.

Most of the medicinal power of the Heavenly Essence Pill was actually shared by these two bottomless pits. The medicinal power that was truly used to improve his cultivation was only a small part.

Although he didn't break through to the next realm, the improvement in his strength was still quite significant.

This was actually an advantage.

The so-called prodigy had to have the ability to fight across realms.

Previously, he heard from Niu Yulan that the top prodigy of the Demon Clan could even defeat opponents who were two realms higher.

Zhao Mu couldn't do that for the time being.

However, he was confident that his potential wouldn't lose to those top prodigies of the Demon Clan.

In the Core Formation realm, he might have a chance to defeat enemies who were two realms higher.

Only when he reached this level would he be qualified to be called a top prodigy of the human race.

Only in the future would he have the hope to protect the entire human race and be known as the human race's moat.

After exhaling, Zhao Mu slowly stood up.

However, he only saw Niu Yulan and not Xing Ziyue.

As expected, this Senior Sister couldn't take it anymore and decided to run away.

However, at this moment, Xing Ziyue's figure appeared from a narrow crack in the cave.

"Yulan, hurry up and come over here. I told you that there must be a path here. Sure enough, I found it. It's hidden really well."

"Which way?" Zhao Mu walked over and asked.

Seeing that Zhao Mu had woken up, Xing Ziyue muttered, "Your seclusion is really efficient."

As she spoke, she pointed to a very hidden slit and said, "Before, I noticed that there was an abnormal fluctuation of Spiritual Qi coming from here. I suspected that there should be something good hidden nearby. Sure enough, I searched it and found the source of the Spiritual Qi. If I'm not mistaken, the end of this slit should be an underground hidden space with rich Spiritual Qi."

"Oh?"

Zhao Mu suddenly thought of the cave that the magical beast had mentioned. Could it be that they had really found it?

"Come, let's go down and take a look."
