Ball Ball Cultivation

"They really sprouted. It seems that the spiritual energy in the space is rich. They can wake up from their slumber and start living again. That's great. I wonder if they can develop spiritual intelligence. If so, we can let them take care of high-level spiritual plants."

Their stomachs growled, and Qiuqiu led the two little ones out of the space, closed the formation, and headed to the food court for a bite to eat! It was already afternoon, and the streets were still crowded. They grabbed some snacks and wanted to head to the central, largest restaurant, Peng's Restaurant. However, Qiuqiu and the others hesitated before the five-story restaurant, fearing they might not have enough spirit stones. They heard the people coming out say, "These four dishes are delicious! Three high-grade spirit stones are truly worth it! He's truly a direct descendant of the God of Cooking!"

The three people and the bird unconsciously stepped back, standing at the side of the restaurant entrance with eager eyes. Qiuqiu proposed a solution: "I have some elixirs here. Let's sell the spirit stones and then come back to eat!"

The two little ones nodded in unison, and the little yellow bird lowered its head in shame. The three turned around to leave when they saw the big brother who had set up the stall yesterday, with a lovely beautiful woman in a fiery red dress standing next to him.

Qiuqiu immediately stepped forward and greeted him, "Brother, come and enjoy the delicious food too. This fairy is your girlfriend, oh, no, wife? She is so beautiful and cute, you have good taste."

"We're here to eat too. We haven't been here for several years. Did you just get out?" He was avoiding the topic of his wife.

At this time, Bai Yi's stomach rumbled loudly, followed by Bai Er. Both babies covered their bellies with their hands, their faces flushed. Qiuqiu explained hurriedly: "You know, as for spirit stones, haha, we don't have enough on hand, but we are going to sell pills and make money to eat more."

The little beauty spoke and waved her little hand: "Let's go, I'll treat you little kids to a meal."

You have such good taste. Not only can you see that I am beautiful, but you can also find that I am the wife of this idiot. You are so observant!

The eldest brother also spoke, "Let's go. You can give her the pills to pay for her meals. She and I are setting up a stall next to each other. She sells pills and I sell magic weapons." As he said this, he looked at the girl in red.

Qiuqiu didn't even bother to refuse: "I'm so sorry, let's go, let's talk after we're full."

After entering Peng's Restaurant, the group was led to a private room on the third floor by the waiter after the beautiful girl showed a jade token. They entered the private room of about 40 to 50 square meters one by one. There was a rotating round table in the middle, on which were engraved various formations for heat preservation, heating, cooling, blocking, etc. They were all low-level formations, but they were cleverly designed, which made Qiuqiu marvel at them!

The woman in red didn't even look at the menu, and shouted out a string of dish names. The waiter quickly bowed and left: "Sir, please wait a moment," then closed the door and left.

"Your elders haven't arrived yet, and you, a grown-up kid, are traveling with two little ones. Your elders are so relieved that they don't even bring a guard! Even if this is a market under the jurisdiction of the Taixu Sect, you're lucky nothing happened to you!"

After talking about the three men and the bird, he said to the woman in red, "This is the three people I told you about. The one who doesn't bargain when buying things, but only talks about reason!"

Qiuqiu immediately stood up and introduced himself: "I am Xu Qiu, this is Xu Baiyi, and this is Xu Baier. The three of us are only staying in Liuyun City temporarily. It is fate that I can meet this big brother."

"I am Lu Yu from Taixu Sect, and this is my junior sister Qin Qingqing. She is very good at making pills. I have only eaten the pills she made since I was a child. Show her the pills, maybe she can give you some advice."

Qiuqiu took out a bottle of each of the three best-refined elixirs and handed them to Qin Qingqing. Qin Qingqing took them without hesitation, opened them and examined them slowly. She observed them first, then smelled them under her nose, crushed them with her fingers, kneaded them repeatedly, and finally put them in her mouth to taste them slightly.

After doing this three times, he said to Qiuqiu in a serious tone, "Although they are all first-grade pills, they are of excellent quality and have a good fragrance. When mixing the medicine in the early stage, some of the ingredients were insufficient, resulting in a small number of high-grade pills. The impurities were removed very cleanly during the preparation, and some are better than mine. However, the spiritual energy is unstable in the later stage of preparation. I don't know whether it was because you overused your spiritual sense or the fire in the alchemy furnace was unstable. Anyway, it caused some impurities, which is why there are mid-grade pills, and there may even be low-grade pills!"

"Master Qin, you are amazing. I'm in the exact situation you described. I recognized it the moment you mentioned it. You see, everything you said is so accurate. Senior Lu, you really understand me. Your evaluation is not exaggerated and is very pertinent. Your alchemy skills are indeed excellent. How do you think I can improve?"

Qin Qingqing appeared calm on the surface, but cheered in her heart, taking it easy: "Oh, this is easy, just increase the dosage a little bit. When we make pills, one portion of herbs can produce ten full pills, but some alchemy masters can make twelve or thirteen pills from that portion of herbs, which means that one or two herbs are already left, or one herb is in excess and has been wasted. As for the latter, do you know the reason? If your spiritual consciousness is exhausted, you will feel bloated and painful. If the quality of the earth fire is too low, you can use a medium-quality earth fire mouth. As for the alchemy furnace, I don't know. Could it be that the quality is too low and the formation is unstable?"

When Qin Qingqing looked up, she saw Qiuqiu looking at her with admiring eyes. Because Qiuqiu was wearing men's clothes, had chaotic spiritual roots, and had a chaotic body, it was difficult for others to discover that she was a woman without using spiritual sense.

So Qin Qingqing felt a little embarrassed when she was staring at her. At this time, the door of the private room opened lightly, and the waiter brought a special food box and brought dishes to the specific location, and then opened the corresponding formation. Those that needed to be kept warm were placed on the heat preservation formation, those that needed to be heated were placed on the heating formation, and those that needed to be chilled were placed on the ice formation. Those without special requirements were placed on the fresh-keeping lock formation, and the dishes inside would not change for several days... It was really eye-opening.

After everyone exchanged polite words, Qiuqiu took out the best spiritual fruit wine and filled everyone's cups. He also poured half a cup for Bai Yi, Bai Er, and Xiao Huang, as they would otherwise have too much spiritual energy and suffer from indigestion. The key point was that there was still a table full of delicious food!

Peng's food indeed follows the natural way of eating, bringing out the taste of the ingredients to the fullest, and the spiritual energy is mild. Compared to elixirs, there is no toxicity at all, and some of the food even has various nourishing effects!

Everyone was not polite and started eating quickly.

Qiuqiu kept picking up food for the two treasures and the bird, he was really busy and having a lot of fun!

Because of the abundant spiritual energy, the two treasures and one bird were full in a short while.

After eating and drinking, Qiuqiu took out several high-level spiritual fruits as dessert for everyone.

After brewing another pot of foundation-building tea, everyone drank tea and chatted together with the newly grown tender buds of the tea trees in the space.

"I know it's a problem with the alchemy furnace. Look, it's this broken furnace. Every time I lock the elixir, my spiritual consciousness tries hard to compress the medicine liquid, and the furnace becomes unstable."

No one noticed that when Qiuqiu took out the alchemy furnace, Lu Yu almost dropped the teacup in his hand! Isn't this the Qingmu Ding from Liu Liu's previous life? The formation on it was repaired after he reached the Nascent Soul stage. Because he and he were already engaged, he added some materials to repair the cracks. Those materials were the collection of the Lu family warehouse for many years. If he wasn't a Nascent Soul cultivator, neither he nor the master of refining would have the right to use them.

Just as I came back to my senses, I heard Qingqing say, "Senior Brother is the one who refines the weapon. Can you ask him to see if he can repair it?"

Lu Yu: Why are you asking me to fix it again? This time, the one you’re asking me to fix is ​​Qingqing. Should I fix it or not?

Lu Yu took the alchemy furnace and looked at it carefully. It was indeed the Qingmu Ding. It was even worse than the one he had seen in his previous life. It was probably repaired by someone when it came into his hands in his previous life.

After thinking about it carefully, he saw several big round eyes looking at him expectantly, "I can restore the formation and repair the alchemy furnace with Qingling Jade, but I have a condition."

"This repaired alchemy furnace can be used to refine fifth-grade pills. You cannot sell or give it to others in the future. If you really don't want it anymore or someone else insists on buying it, you can sell it to me or Qingqing, or you can use my name. If you still want to kill people for the treasure, remember to notify us when you have time. This is a jade slip for communication. If you don't have time, you must destroy the alchemy furnace."

"Senior Lu, this tripod is of some significance. I only spent a few spirit stones to buy it. How about you bring me a usable tripod and I will replace it for you? It sounds unsafe and I am not sure about using it."

"Qingqing and I are not fit to use it, let alone hold it. Only alchemists with wood spiritual roots can do this. All you have to do is agree, and I'll repair the furnace for free. It has an affinity for spiritual plants. If it's completely repaired, the furnace will absorb the spiritual and medicinal properties of the spiritual plants used in alchemy, replenishing the elixir with some vitality. This furnace can awaken its spiritual intelligence and be promoted to a fairy weapon. It's easier to upgrade than a natal magic weapon because it feeds on the spiritual plants used in alchemy. Using fresh spiritual plants will achieve better results! It will also give the elixir a faint vitality, making it more effective. If you don't have wood spiritual roots, this aspect won't work. Otherwise, this furnace would be less practical than an ordinary one!"

He thought: In his previous life, Liu Liu used this furnace to refine many vital life-extending elixirs, winning over many immortal elders in the sect. Otherwise, how could he have lived so freely in the end! He had to keep a backup plan when repairing the furnace. Even if it was destined to fall into Liu Liu's hands, he could control it.

Qiuqiu thought for a moment and simply said, "I took it out because I trust Senior Lu. Senior Lu, please go ahead and practice. I will not use this cauldron to refine pills in front of others in the future. I will not give away the pills I have refined casually. I will sell them to Duobao Pavilion to earn some spirit stones. This is relatively safe. If someone really targets me, I will send a message to Senior. If that doesn't work, I will destroy it so that it will not fall into the hands of outsiders! I will provide the materials for repairing it."

"Originally I just wanted to use the Qingling Jade to repair the cracks and then repair the formation, but you said if it couldn't be saved, then it would be damaged, so I believed you. I still have some leftovers from refining my own magic weapon, and I was originally planning to refine a small gadget for Qingqing. Now that I add it to this tripod, I estimate that I can refine a sixth-grade pill, but whether it can be enlightened and upgraded depends on future opportunities."

Qiuqiu took out a quarter of the essence of the large ore obtained from the volcano, took out a pigeon egg-sized piece and handed it to Lu Yu, "Do you think this can be used by Miss Qin again?"

"This is top-grade Yaoyan Stone, a supplementary material for your natal magic weapon." He handed it to Qin Qingqing happily and said, "I am helping her find this. Top-grade ones can be found, but top-grade ones are harder to find. I have to repair the alchemy furnace for you."

Qin Qingqing accepted it without hesitation, "Where do you live? We are stationed at the Liuyun Mountain Sect! When it's finished, come and get it."

Lu Yu said, "Meet at the entrance of this restaurant at this time tomorrow afternoon. We'll just be here for dinner." Actually, he didn't want anyone in the sect to find any trace of Xiao Ding, and he wanted to eliminate any possibility of Liu Liu finding out!

After discussion, they separated.
