The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

"Hmm?" Feeling that the taste was okay, Hu Xingtong scooped another big spoonful and tasted it carefully.

What's more, this medicinal food tasted just like the vegetable porridge she had eaten before, with a faint mushroom aroma.

Hu Xingtong was very curious about what was added inside, so he immediately opened the scanning eye to check.

After taking a look at it, I was sure that it was a medicinal food without a doubt. It was full of ingredients that replenished qi and blood. It was obviously a tonic.

"What do you think, Junior Sister?" Sun Ze looked at her eating with relish and had an idea in his mind, but he just wanted to hear her say it in person.

"It's delicious. Senior brother's cooking skills are as good as ever... No, better than before!" Hu Xingtong didn't think he was exaggerating. With Sun Ze's cooking skills, if he were to go to modern times, his cooking skills would be at the level of a Michelin five-star chef.

"As long as it tastes good, take your time to eat. I'll take these to Master first." Sun Ze took the meal that had been prepared long ago and flew away on his sword.

The huge small kitchen became deserted again, but Hu Xingtong didn't care.

Eating alone is also enjoyable.

[Take some with me!] Seeing Hu Xingtong eating so happily, Chen Wu couldn't help but ask for a portion to try.

"Come out and eat by yourself. My senior brother has also seen you. He won't say anything if you come out." Hu Xingtong ate so enthusiastically that he didn't even want to get up to serve himself.

Chen Wu snorted, but showed up and got a bowl for himself.

"You know what, Sun Ze's cooking skills are as good as ever." Chen Wu muttered, drinking porridge and eating side dishes. His ordinary life was quite enjoyable.

"Did he cook before?" Hu Xingtong was asking about his previous life, and Chen Wu knew it. "You didn't really care about food before, but whenever you came out of seclusion, you would go to Sun Ze for dinner, and your favorite was hot pot."

"Sun Ze can also make hot pot?" Hot pot, something that was in Hu Xingtong's memory, she was really craving it.

"What you taught me is also available in the mortal world here, but mostly in Shu."

Okay, that’s great. Now that I know the place, I’ll ask Wen Zhao to buy it from me. Huan Yi Pavilion is spread across every corner of the cultivation world, and she doesn’t believe that it can’t bring her hot pot.

After dinner, Hu Xingtong washed the dishes and pots. It was not difficult and was solved with a little cleaning technique.

Seeing that Sun Ze had not returned yet, he must have been left behind by Tan Luo. Hu Xingtong simply returned to his residence, ate and drank his fill, and then got down to business.

Holding the design drawings of the Nirvana Pearl, he thought again and again and decided to make it into a magical instrument specifically for thunder punishment, adding some spatial laws into it, so that it has enough power to attract the power of heavenly thunder.

Also, you must be able to generate the power of heavenly thunder yourself.

Speaking of this, she has to study the copy-and-paste formations or runes. After all, she can't just rely on her limited inventory. If she does, it will run out sooner or later.

How about asking Fourth Junior Brother to observe and see what the affinity is with the Thunder Spirit Root?

No, no, I can’t let this only junior brother of mine be ruined.

Out of desperation, Hu Xingtong could only use the power of thunder punishment in the Qi Gathering Domain to conduct research.

Therefore, in the following period of time, the disciples practicing in Fanyun Sect could always feel waves of vibrations from time to time, as well as occasional thunder.

This made everyone think that the senior sister who had attracted the thunder tribulation was going through it again. For a time, the entire Fanyun Sect was swept up in a craze for cultivation.

Many disciples were infected by this situation. Some went out to gain experience, some calmed down and practiced seriously, and some even chose to go into seclusion.

As for Hu Xingtong, her repeated attempts did not bring any good results. Instead, the heavenly thunder that she had stored for a long time was consumed and only a little was left.

Hu Xingtong sat in her refining room, constantly drawing the design for the Nirvana Pearl, her brow furrowed. She had tried countless times, each one ending in failure, which only made her increasingly frustrated. She knew that creating a magical instrument capable of generating its own heavenly thunder power was a nearly impossible task with her current strength and knowledge.

"Ah, if this goes on, I can't even do it even if I move the Heavenly Dao!" Hu Xingtong was extremely devastated. Looking at the only trace of heavenly thunder power left in the Qi Gathering Domain Plate, her mood fell to the bottom.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. "Xingtong, are you in there?" It was Sun Ze's voice.

Hu Xingtong calmed down and opened the door. "Brother, what's going on?"

Sun Ze looked at Hu Xingtong's exhausted appearance, feeling a little sorry. "Master asked me to come and see you. He said you've been studying magical instruments lately and he's worried you've worn yourself out."

Hu Xingtong forced a smile. "I'm fine, brother. I'm just trying something new."

Sun Ze nodded. He knew Hu Xingtong's character. Once he made a decision, he would go all out. "Then you should also make sure to rest and don't overwork yourself."

Hu Xingtong nodded. She knew Sun Ze was concerned about her. "I will, Brother."

After Sun Ze left, Hu Xingtong fell into deep thought again. The power of Heavenly Thunder was running low, and the remaining one could no longer be used for research. He needed more Thunder Element to research anything.

After much thought, she decided to find Xiao Yuheng. Although she didn't want him to participate in this risky experiment, she had no other choice now.

Hu Xingtong arrived at Xiao Yuheng's residence. He was practicing physical skills in the yard. Seeing Hu Xingtong, he immediately came forward. "Senior Sister, why are you here?"

Hu Xingtong smiled. "Junior brother, I have a question for you."

Xiao Yuheng nodded. "Senior Sister, please feel free to speak."

Hu Xingtong told Xiao Yuheng about her thoughts and current predicament, hoping he could give her some advice. After listening, Xiao Yuheng pondered for a while. "Senior Sister, I have an idea that may be able to help you."

Hu Xingtong's eyes lit up. "What's the idea?"

Xiao Yuheng explained, "Sister, you know that the Thunder Spiritual Root and the power of Heavenly Thunder are inherently related. Since you gave me Chuiyun, I've found that my perception of the Thunder element has become much stronger. Moreover, with the help of Chuiyun, I can attract a lot of Heavenly Thunder to assist me. So, I think I can help you with this."

Hu Xingtong was moved after hearing this. "Really, Junior Brother? This... isn't very safe. Are you sure you want to help me?"

Xiao Yuheng nodded without a doubt. "Of course I am willing. Senior Sister's business is my business."

Thus, Hu Xingtong and Xiao Yuheng began a new research. Above Fanyun Sect, the sound of thunder resounded once again, becoming more magnificent day by day, and the scene was no less magnificent than when Hu Xingtong was undergoing his tribulation.

As time went by, with the help of Xiao Yuheng, Hu Xingtong indeed comprehended some of the laws about heavenly thunder. Once he had an idea, he could put it into practice. He still needed Xiao Yuheng's help with the things, so he couldn't ask Wen Zhao to record them under Guxing's name.

Therefore, Hu Xingtong became much bolder. In the following year, Hu Xingtong and Xiao Yuheng kept repeating the process of attracting heavenly thunder and refining magic tools.

Until one day, thunder rumbled in the sky. Xiao Yuheng hid on a hilltop hundreds of miles away from Hu Xingtong and shouted, "Senior Sister, I didn't bring this upon myself!"

That's it, this thunder tribulation is coming for me.

But I came at the right time, so I can try out the effect of my newly refined Nirvana Pearl.
