Stealing the female lead's favor turns her from a heartthrob to a universally disliked figure.

"This is a space ring, a gift from your master, exclusively for disciples of Lingqin Peak. Go and take care of your own affairs first, then come find me later."

As soon as she finished speaking, she moved slightly and was already on the second floor, quickly entering her room.

When her cultivation level surged, Li Qingqing simply entered the Changling Sacred Spring space to minimize the disturbance.

A moment later, she successfully advanced from the Spirit Division Realm to the early stage of the Divine Division Realm.

Having crossed a cultivation level, she felt that her spiritual senses and five senses were much stronger than before, and her body felt lighter.

Soaking in the hot spring, she felt her skin become several shades clearer and smoother, truly as smooth as jade.

After changing her clothes, she used the random inheritance jade technique again.

Just like before, the image that appeared in her mind was still that of a man whose face she couldn't see.

He was still teaching her swordsmanship, step by step.

However, this time, the teacher was no longer teaching the Five Elements Spiritual Sword formed from spiritual energy, but the Nine Profound Sword Technique, which possesses absolute sword energy killing moves.

Perhaps because the sword technique was too profound, Li Qingqing found that the time it took to receive the inheritance this time was particularly long.

When she came out of the Changling Sacred Spring space, she found that it was already dark outside.

Pushing open the door, she immediately saw the Spirit Chef Peak Master and Ye Bei sitting outside the inn, grilling fish over a fire.

As soon as she stepped down, Ye Bei immediately stood up, "Master!"

As Li Qingqing nodded in response to her disciple, the Spirit Chef Peak Master hurriedly waved to her.

"Xiao Li, come and sit down. We caught a lot of top-grade spirit fish this afternoon. They're extremely delicious when grilled. We can eat them in a little while."

"With my senior uncle here, I'm in for a treat!" Li Qingqing said with a smile as she sat down beside him.

The Spirit Chef Peak Master laughed heartily, "You're a lucky girl. This kid, Ye Bei, came looking for you at midnight, and it took me a while to figure out he was your new apprentice. This afternoon he took me fishing, and he caught fish every time. You have a good eye; he's a good lad."

Ye Bei was a little embarrassed and quickly took out a small bag. "Master, I used five bottles of top-grade spirit-replenishing pills and five bottles of top-grade repair pills to pay off all my debts and interest. I'm returning these to you."

His words startled the Spirit Chef Peak Master so much that he almost choked on his own saliva.

Li Qingqing glanced at Ye Bei, then took out four bottles of pills from her small bag and tossed them to him, saying, "Keep these."

As she spoke, she handed the remaining six bottles of pills to the Spirit Chef Peak Master.

"Uncle-Master, these are pills I refined myself, I'm giving them to you."

The Spirit Chef Peak Master was taken aback, looking at her with some disbelief, "You made this yourself?"

Or a top-grade elixir?

Did he hear wrongly?

Seeing the bag handed to him, he immediately took out a pill bottle and opened it.

His eyes widened when he saw the top-grade spirit-replenishing pills inside, which exuded a wonderful fragrance.

There must be twenty pills in this bottle!

After that, he opened all the pill bottles at lightning speed and took a look.

His heart pounded wildly when he discovered that all the pills were top-grade pills.

It wouldn't make sense if this wasn't refined!

Where would Xiao Li get so many spirit stones to buy so many top-grade pills at once?

But this girl is from Lingqin Peak!

She didn't study alchemy!

Seeing that the Spirit Chef Peak Master was too shocked and had a lot on his mind, Li Qingqing took the initiative to explain a few words.

"My health has been very poor for the past seven years, and I have to take all kinds of pills and herbal decoctions. Although I have neglected my cultivation during this period, I have seen and recognized a lot of spiritual plants and herbs, and I have also tried to refine pills."

"Later, I also made some progress in alchemy, but my master was worried that too many people would know that I could refine pills, thus disturbing my peace and aggravating my illness, so he did not reveal it to the outside world."

The Spirit Chef Peak Master suddenly realized something. "No wonder I often smelled the fragrance of pills on the spirit boat. I thought it was disciples from the Spirit Healer Peak refining pills, but now that I think about it, it must have been you?"

Li Qingqing nodded with a smile, "Yes. After leaving the small secret realm, I spent a lot of time refining pills on the spirit boat."

The Spirit Chef Peak Master was immediately delighted. "I thought the pills you gave me last time were from the Sect Leader! From now on, I won't have to beg that arrogant old man Fu Changye for any pills I need anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that his choice of words was inappropriate and chuckled twice.

"I tend to talk nonsense when I'm happy. I'm just happy! It's good that your master kept it a secret. If the Spirit Physician Peak Master had known how good you were at alchemy, you might not be the Spirit Zither Peak Master now, but his disciple."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingqing quickly said, "Then please continue to keep this a secret for me, Senior Uncle. In the future, if you need any pills, just give me the ingredients, and I can refine them for you. We won't tell anyone else."

"That's great! Don't worry, I'll definitely keep it a secret for you." The Spirit Chef Peak Master nodded solemnly.

What he didn't say was that Fu Changye was not only arrogant, but also jealous and prone to attacking those with better alchemy talent than him.

Think back to the beginning...

Forget it, I'm just not going to tell him that little Li knows how to make pills.

The grilled fish was ready, and the three of them, without even saying a word, quickly started eating.

To fit the occasion, the Spirit Chef Peak Master also brought out a jar of refreshing and mellow Spirit Nourishing Wine.

After a few rounds of drinks, the Spirit Chef Peak Master and Li Qingqing agreed that tomorrow Ye Bei would take them to catch spirit fish for another day, and they would have a whole fish feast that evening.

As for the day after tomorrow and the day after that, they can have a crab feast, or a shrimp and crab feast or something similar.

Their lives gradually returned to a state of poetry and distant horizons, but the people on the other side of the Gate of Divine Ruins were facing all sorts of troubles.

Because from the tenth day of divine punishment, the people kneeling in the circle were no longer as motionless as if they were welded to the ground; when their souls were exhausted to a certain extent, they would collapse.

The consequence of falling was that it turned directly into ashes and vanished into nothingness.

After this happened more than a dozen times, the person kneeling on the ground turned ashen-faced and filled with fear.

By the fifteenth day, hundreds of people in the kneeling circle had collapsed.

By the twentieth day, the number of people in the kneeling circle who had been reduced to ashes had increased to more than two thousand.

On the twenty-second day, Xia Nanfeng discussed the matter with his fellow disciples, then wrote a note and posted the message in the shared space to inform their master.

Li Qingqing didn't see the note until she went to bed that night.

However, she had no intention of going back. Instead, she wrote a note and put two Soul Nourishing Pills back into the shared space, instructing them to give Elder Wu one pill every half month.

As for the others, sorry, she can't control them!

Xia Nanfeng had been waiting, and as soon as Li Qingqing's things appeared in the shared space, he immediately took them.

After reading the note, he immediately went to carry out the order.

Elder Wu's cultivation had reached the peak of the Spirit Integration Realm, so he was neither hungry nor tired at the moment.

He was still grateful to the disciples of Lingqin Peak who came to feed him pills.

After the pill was swallowed, he was shocked.

This is actually a Soul Nourishing Pill of exceptional quality?
