Long Road to Stardom

Time passed by little by little. Lin Xing made thirty sets of boards and stopped when he felt that they were enough.

Seeing the female cultivator wake up from her meditation, he asked casually, "Do you have any 'beer flower grass' on you?"

"I have a few of them, but what do you want with them?"

Lin Xing heard that the tone of this voice was much softer than the previous one, and his eyes lit up. "It's not that I need to do anything, I just need this herb to refine the 'Spirit Feeding Pill'."

Yun Miao didn't expect that this person was also an alchemist. He took out a wooden box from his storage ring and threw it over.

Lin Xing took the box, opened it and saw that it contained the herbs she needed. Her prejudice against female cultivators was slightly alleviated, but only slightly.

"Thank you. I'll give you a bottle of the medicine after I make it." Lin Xing said with a chuckle.

Yun Miao didn't care, closed his eyes and continued to meditate.

Lin Xing didn't think there was anything wrong with her seeing this. After all, it was normal for a beautiful woman to have some temper.

Lin Xing laid out all the herbs and used the 'Qingmu Jue' to comb each herb to stimulate its greater medicinal properties. This was something she learned from the 'Alchemy Guide'. The quality of the pills made from combed herbs was always higher.

This is the conclusion she gained from countless experiments, it's just a waste of time.

After Lin Xing combed all the herbs, they became more vibrant, and she nodded with satisfaction.

Take out the alchemy furnace from the storage bag and put it away.

When Yun Miao saw the alchemy furnace being taken out, the corner of his mouth twitched, "Are you sure this alchemy furnace can make pills?"

Lin Xing was not happy when she heard this. She was a little angry. "I admit that you are beautiful, but don't question others' abilities casually. Although this furnace is a little dark, the pills refined in it are not ambiguous at all."

Yun Miao was a little bit unconvinced when he heard this, but his eyes were still full of inquiry.

Seeing her look, Lin Xing secretly vowed to let her see his strength. However, just in case, he still slapped three second-grade high-quality diamond talismans on himself.

Yun Miao knew what she meant when she saw her like this, but she was not surprised. It was just that her eyes hid emotions that others could not understand.

After preparing everything, Lin Xing followed the previous steps to refine the pill. When it came to the last step of condensing the pill in front of outsiders, he had to use the pill-condensing technique he learned from the "Alchemy Guide" to condense the pill.

The first furnace was successfully refined easily. When Lin Xing opened it, although he was well prepared, he still felt it was a pity. Sure enough, there were several fewer pills than the Dan Ning Jue he learned in the main hall. However, the quality was much better after sorting. Among the twelve pills, there were three top-grade, five high-grade, and the rest were mid-grade, with not a single low-grade pill.

Yun Miao had just smelled the fragrance of the medicine and thought that the refining was successful, but looking at her like this, could it be that the refining failed? She comforted him in a slightly stiff voice, "It is common for alchemy to fail. Even a seventh-grade alchemist cannot guarantee that the refining will succeed every time."

Lin Xing was just about to put the refined pill into the bottle when she heard these comforting words. It seemed that this person was not as cold as she seemed, but she would not show it.

"You actually thought that I would fail in refining the medicine. You will be disappointed. Here... this bottle is for you. It should be enough to offset the spiritual herbs you just gave me." Lin Xing put away the pills and threw the bottle over.

Yun Miao took the bottle, opened it and saw a hint of surprise in his eyes. He really didn't expect that this person was so good at refining pills.

Lin Xing saw her take the bottle, but didn't notice her look and continued to immerse himself in refining the elixir.

After half a day, Lin Xing completed refining eight batches of 'Spirit Feeding Pills' without a single failure. Each furnace produced twelve perfect pills, without a single low-grade pill, all of them were above medium-grade.

It seems that the step of sorting out the spiritual herbs is very critical, which completely affects the quality of refining the pill. It was really a waste to do so many experiments before.

Although combing the herbs has improved their quality, the main reason is that she injected vitality into the spiritual herbs, which caused such a big change. It's a pity that Lin Xing didn't know this.

After taking back the alchemy furnace, Lin Xing sat cross-legged in meditation to restore his spiritual power.

Half a day later, Lin Xing opened her eyes and saw the female cultivator not far away also looking at her.

Yun Miao's eyes suddenly shrank. "It turns out that he has recovered. Let's go."

Lin Xing stood up, cast a cleansing spell on himself, and retracted the formation. The surroundings were instantly filled with red mist, making people's vision blurry and they could only see things three meters away.

Lin Xing released the vines skillfully and slid down. A wooden board was instantly placed under his feet. He stood on the board and used the sound transmission technique, "Grab the vines and bring them down."

A voice sounded beside Yun Miao's ears and came down along the vine.

When Lin Xing saw her coming down, he placed another wooden board, waited for her to stand up, and then took out two wooden sticks and handed them to her.

Yun Miao took the wooden stick and saw the person in front of him sliding the wooden board with the stick. In an instant, he was several meters away. He hurriedly imitated the person's method and followed behind.

Lin Xing had explored a few miles ahead and made marks along the way. The marks had not been touched, so it seemed that the route should still be safe, so he slid in the direction of the marks.

Yun Miao followed behind all the way, but he didn't expect that this method could be used on the swamp. He didn't know how many people were buried in the swamp.

An hour later, Lin Xing followed the mark to the place she had not explored at the beginning and stopped. Seeing the female cultivator behind her coming to her side soon, she turned her head and said, "I have not explored the following section of the road. I have to be careful next time."

Lin Xing took out a second-level low-grade talisman, the 'Wooden Shield Talisman', and slapped a few of them on his body. Seeing that the female cultivator had no reaction, he looked very disappointed and said, "If you don't put a few layers of defensive talismans on yourself, what will you do if you get attacked?"

Yun Miao looked at this person, his eyes flickering, "I have used them all up before, there is not a single one left."

Lin Xing instantly felt like he had saved an ancestor, but he still took out ten second-level mid-grade 'Wooden Shield Talismans' and handed them over, "Use them sparingly, I don't have much left."

Yun Miao took the talisman and a warm feeling flashed through his heart.

After seeing her slap the talisman on her body, Lin Xing waved his hand, suggesting that she follow.

Lin Xing released his spiritual sense and moved forward slowly. Although it was only a few meters away, it was better than nothing. He did not dare to relax for a moment.

The further he went, the deeper the red fog became, and the more severe the suppression of his spiritual sense became. He was only three meters away, and his eyes could only see one meter away. In order to prevent getting lost, Lin Xing planted a wood spirit mark every few meters, and did not dare to pick any spiritual herbs along the way.

Seeing the red fog getting darker, Lin Xing felt that they had already reached the depths of the 'red fog' and became more alert.
