So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

After the battle, Ling Jiuan swallowed a pill to restore his strength without hesitation, then sat cross-legged and began to practice.

Her face showed firmness and determination, as if to drive away all the exhaustion.

Chen Yan looked at her with a complicated expression.

He secretly admired in his heart, this man is really a cultivation fanatic!

He simply couldn't imagine that if he worked as hard as she did, he would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.

After a night, when the first ray of sunlight fell on the earth, Ling Jiuan began to get busy again.

She took out the medicine furnace and prepared to start refining the elixir. Chen Yan looked at her, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"You really can't stop for a moment!"

he sighed.

Ling Jiuan looked up at him and couldn't help but smile.

"The spiritual energy here is so abundant, why don't you hurry up and practice? Maybe before the end of the trial, you can break through to the third level of foundation building."

She did not answer Chen Yan's question directly.

She knew very well that a family favorite like Chen Yan could not understand her situation.

Chen Yan widened his eyes and looked at her in disbelief.

"The third level of foundation building? You really dare to think so!"

Ling Jiuan smiled gently, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

"Everything depends on human effort. What is there to be afraid of?"

As she spoke, she stopped talking and began to concentrate on drawing spiritual energy into her body.

Following her guidance, the surrounding spiritual energy gradually gathered and slowly poured into the medicine furnace.

After a while, a fresh medicinal fragrance spread, making people feel relaxed and happy.

The medicine in the medicine furnace gurgled, as if it was giving birth to some magical power.

Ling Jiuan's forehead was also covered with beads of sweat, which fell down one by one.

Ling Jiuan could feel that his tendons and veins were stretched, allowing the spiritual power to flow through them.

Chen Yan watched from the side and couldn't help feeling a little shocked.

If you make elixirs like this, wouldn’t you be exhausted to death?

But he had to admit that for Ling Jiuan, this seemed to be the best way she could choose.

As time went by, the medicinal liquid gradually became thicker, and its color changed from light to dark, emitting a stronger medicinal fragrance, which made Jiuan's face reveal satisfaction and pride. She knew that this batch of pills was about to be refined.

After a few more hours, a faint light suddenly came out of the medicine furnace, as if it was pregnant with some mysterious power.

The next moment, seven pills with an alluring luster rolled down in front of the two people like pearls.

"Foundation Pill!"

Chen Yan exclaimed, his eyes revealing surprise and complexity that were difficult to conceal.

He knew the value of this foundation-building pill and was even more aware of the difficulty of refining it.

Ling Jiuan smiled and nodded, then gracefully threw a pill to Chen Yan.

"That's perfect. It's perfect for you to use to stabilize your realm."

Chen Yan took the pill and his expression became more complicated.

He looked at Ling Jiuan and couldn't help asking.

"Ling Jiuan, why are you working so hard? Training and refining pills, aren't you tired?"

Ling Jiuan smiled gently, his eyes revealing determination and persistence.

"Live. In this world, the weak die and the strong live. The weak without anyone to protect them can only grow up quickly, otherwise they will be slaughtered."

Her words revealed deep helplessness and determination, which shocked Chen Yan's heart.

He looked at her, his eyes flickering with admiration and confusion.

“But you have the Ling family behind you. Even if you don’t have spiritual roots, you are now a body-tempering genius. They will not leave you alone.”

He knew very well that the reason why Ling Jiuan was not taken seriously before was because he had no spiritual roots.

However, given Ling Jiuan's current strength, the Ling family may not necessarily leave her alone.

Ling Jiuan looked at him deeply, with a deep light flashing in his eyes.

"Chen Yan, you were raised under the protection of your family, so you probably won't understand."

She was an orphan in her previous life, and she knew better than anyone how difficult life was for the original owner when she was abandoned by the Ling family.

If she hadn't transmitted it, this body would have died long ago.

Chen Yan remained silent. He understood that he and Ling Jiuan had different experiences and backgrounds, and perhaps he would never be able to truly understand her feelings.

But he couldn't even imagine fighting desperately like Ling Jiuan did.

After Chen Yan took the foundation-building pill, Ling Jiuan took a short rest and then pulled him to continue forward.

The effect of the Foundation Building Pill was quite good. After Chen Yan used the pill, his strength instantly reached the peak of the first level of Foundation Building.

However, there is no sign of a breakthrough yet.

"Let's go!"

she said softly.

"We don't know how many difficult things there are ahead! We have to get out, otherwise, how can we avenge this?"

Wen family, she remembered it!

Chen Yan did not refute this time, but a trace of melancholy flashed in his eyes.

"Tell me, if both of us died in the barrier, wouldn't that be a big loss?"

He said half-jokingly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

The things in this barrier seem to be much stronger than those of the same level outside.

Ling Jiuan smiled.

"As long as you don't want to die, no one can make you die. Let's go!"

Along the way, Ling Jiuan not only paid attention to the dangers around him, but also did not forget to collect elixirs on the road.

She was agile and had sharp eyes, and she would not miss any valuable elixir.

In addition, she also picked a lot of spiritual fruits to replenish her physical strength.

Although these spiritual fruits are not as effective as elixirs, they are also a good choice.

The main reason is that these spiritual fruits are sweet, which greatly satisfies her taste buds.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Ling Jiuan's attention was suddenly attracted by a red elixir.

The elixir was as red as flame, emitting an alluring luster.

She had an idea and was about to move forward, but at this moment, two huge monsters suddenly blocked her way.

They were two giant apes. They were huge, almost three meters tall, with bulging muscles all over their bodies, and looked extremely powerful.

Their eyes were fierce and savage, as if they wanted to tear apart everything that stood in their way.

Ling Jiuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the two giant apes with a serious expression.

Titan apes in twenty-first century fiction?

"What the hell? I actually met a living one?"

She muttered to herself, with a hint of surprise and excitement in her tone.

It turns out that if you live long enough, you can see everything.

When Chen Yan heard her words, he looked at her with some confusion.

"what?"

Ling Jiuan shook his head without explaining too much.

She just stared at the two giant apes, and one of the giant apes suddenly swung its fist and hit the two of them.

Ling Jiuan suddenly shouted.

"Back off!"

At the same time, she flashed and was ready for battle.

These two giant apes are obviously not ordinary spirit beasts. Their strength and speed far exceed those of ordinary spirit beasts.

The blast created by this fist hitting the ground alone made the surrounding air shake.

Chen Yan did not dare to slack off, as this thing looked extremely powerful.
