The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Lu Xinyu grew up in the City Lord's Mansion of Canghai City. There are not only many foundation-building cultivators in his family, but also four or five golden elixir cultivators.

Not only that, the Lu family also has a Nascent Soul ancestor who has been in seclusion for many years and never shows up.

This is also the main reason why the Lu family can control Canghai City, the great immortal city under the jurisdiction of Huading Sect.

Because Lu Xinyu had met many high-level cultivators and often came into contact with them, she had no fear of Xiao Han.

To put it more deeply, this is actually the subconscious confidence and arrogance of the children of aristocratic families, because they not only have a lot of contact, but also have people to rely on behind them.

As a cultivator who traveled from modern society, Xiao Han was influenced by the modern ideology of equality. Even though he had become a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he did not feel superior to others. Therefore, he did not think there was anything wrong with Lu Xinyu calling him "senior" while treating him as an equal.

Not all members of the Lu family live in the City Lord's Mansion. In fact, most of the clansmen are scattered throughout Canghai City.

The great alchemist Lu Zhuli lived in the West City area.

When passing by the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Xinyu asked Zhen Miaomiao to go back first, and he took Xiao Han to see Lu Zhuli.

When there were only two of them, Lu Xinyu immediately started her plan to make friends.

"Senior Xiao, can I be your equal and be your friend?"

Lu Xinyu had a chubby, round face, big eyes with long eyelashes, and a pair of dimples when she smiled. Xiao Han was very fond of her because of her eagerness to help and her slightly wacky looks.

Xiao Han would definitely not refuse a friend's request from a girl with whom he had no conflict of interest and whom he had a good impression.

He immediately smiled and said, "Of course."

Lu Xinyu immediately jumped up and said, "Then I will call you Sister Han from now on."

Xiao Han smiled and nodded in agreement.

Lu Xinyu immediately took advantage of the situation and took out a stack of sound transmission notes with her own spiritual imprint and handed them to Xiao Han. "This is my sound transmission note. If there is anything I can help with, Sister Han, just come and find me."

Xiao Han nodded and put away the sound transmission note.

After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Do you want my communication talisman?"

Lu Xinyu nodded immediately and said, "Yes, yes."

Xiao Han also took out seven or eight communication talismans and handed them to Lu Xinyu.

The initial plan was successful, and Lu Xinyu was even happier. Knowing that Xiao Han had only been in Canghai City for a short time and was unfamiliar with the city, she immediately began to enthusiastically introduce it to him.

The two chatted along the way and arrived at Master Lu's residence.

What surprised Xiao Han was that the residence of Master Lu was near a field of spiritual medicine, and it consisted of four or five simple stone houses.

Lu Xinyu said, "My great uncle likes to grow herbs himself, so he lives next to this herb field most of the time."

Then he brought Xiao Han to the stone house.

A member of the Lu family who was working in the medicinal fields came over to greet him. Lu Xinyu asked, "Is my uncle here?"

The young man said, "Inside, but the old man has instructed that no outsiders are allowed to disturb him."

Lu Xinyu looked at Xiao Han, and Xiao Han was about to say that she would visit again tomorrow.

But the croton flying beside her suddenly yelled loudly: "Disturb, disturb, disturb, disturb..."

Xiao Han immediately scolded in a low voice, "Badou, stop yelling."

At this time, an old voice came, "Who is making noise outside?"

The young man's face changed, not knowing how to respond. Lu Xinyu said in a clear voice: "Uncle, I am the daughter of Lu Songyuan, the eldest son of the family. I want to see you for something."

The door of the stone house opened and an old man with white hair and beard walked out.

Lu Xinyu immediately stepped forward and bowed, "Lu Xinyu greets my uncle."

Lu Zhuli waved his hand and his eyes fell on Xiao Han and Badou beside her.

Seeing that he was only at the late Foundation Establishment stage, Xiao Han bowed as if he were his equal. "Xiao Han greets Master Lu. I've heard that Master Lu once refined a pill that could help demonic beasts reach a higher realm. I wonder if Master Lu still has such a pill? I'm willing to pay a large sum for it."

Lu Zhuli looked at the Croton flying around her and asked, "Do you want the elixir that will help it improve its realm?"

Xiao Han nodded, "Exactly."

Lu Zhuli said, "Even if this mynah bird improves, it doesn't have any innate magical powers to show off. It's completely useless to keep it. Giving it good pills would be a waste."

Before Xiao Han could speak, Badou, who could understand most people's words, became anxious, "Improve, improve, improve, Badou, improve your realm, Badou, improve your realm."

This is because I was anxious, and my speaking skills have improved. I can express my ideas completely now.

Xiao Han tightened the circle around its neck, and immediately the Badou could no longer bark.

She also pleaded, "Master Lu Dan, this mynah bird is very important to me, that's why I'm willing to spend spirit stones to cultivate it. I hope you can help me."

Lu Zhuli said, "It's your business to decide what kind of spirit beast you want to feed it to, but I only have one of these pills left, and I don't want it to go to waste. If you really want it, it's 50,000 spirit stones each."

Fifty thousand spirit stones for a pill is not cheap, but Xiao Han feels that as long as the pill is useful and can upgrade the croton, fifty thousand spirit stones is actually very cheap.

She immediately took out spirit stones to pay the bill.

Master Lu Dan didn't say anything more, but took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to her.

"This is the Explosive Spirit Pill consumed by demonic beasts. It has similar functions to the Foundation Establishment Pills used by us humans. Both are elixirs that stimulate the body's potential. However, it doesn't guarantee that demonic beasts will advance after consuming it. If you believe in it, buy it. If not, forget it."

He had concocted this Explosive Spirit Pill himself, mixing the right proportions of herbs. This type of pill had never appeared on the market before, which is why he added a few more words.

Xiao Han smiled and said, "You are the famous Master Lu, so of course I trust you."

Xiao Han was in a very good mood as he had purchased the elixir so smoothly.

On the way back, Xiao Han readily agreed to Lu Xinyu's suggestion of going to a teahouse for tea.

The trip went so smoothly thanks to Lu Xinyu, so Xiao Han decided to go to a teahouse and order a pot of good tea to treat her.

The two of them were drinking tea and chatting in the teahouse, while Badou was eating pastries on the side.

Lu Xinyu slowly shifted the topic to the independent cultivators.

"Sister Han, I heard that it's very difficult for independent cultivators to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills. Did you succeed in building your foundation on your own, or did you get the Foundation Establishment Pills to help you build your foundation?"

Xiao Han said, "I successfully established my foundation by buying a foundation-building pill at an auction."

Lu Xinyu's eyes suddenly lit up. "Can I buy it at the auction? How many spirit stones did that foundation-building pill cost?"

Xiao Han: "About 150,000."

"Fifteen thousand?" Lu Xinyu was so shocked that she almost jumped up.

So many spirit stones, can she earn so many spirit stones?
