Mortal: Even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, I still have to try and get my hands on the Little Gree

Without a doubt, Han Li was in a state of panic at this moment.

Although he already had the Heart Demon Oath as a guarantee, the value of the little green bottle was simply too great. If you put yourself in Han Li's shoes, you would absolutely not be able to control yourself.

In fact, Han Li had planned to escape after entering Huangfeng Valley.

However, after learning about the abilities of a Nascent Soul stage expert, he had no choice but to give up.

After all, with his Qi Refining stage cultivation, he couldn't catch up with the Nascent Soul stage cultivator's half-day escape speed even after running for several years.

"Between you and me, there's no need to worry about those titles. Just call me Brother Mu."

Mu Yu's attitude remained the same as always. Although she had noticed Han Li's wary gaze, she had no other plans.

"When I was taken in as a disciple by Ancestor Linghu, he was worried that my cultivation level was too low, so he only allowed me to go out after I had completely stabilized my Foundation Establishment stage."

"This is a pill formula for the Qi Refining stage. The Golden Marrow Pill and Yellow Dragon Pill should have lost their effect on you by now."

Mu Yu tossed over a few jade slips, and Han Li's expression was somewhat complicated after receiving them.

For pill formulas in the Qi Refining stage, the value of these jade slips themselves is likely greater than the pill formulas.

"Brother Mu... thank you very much."

At this moment, Han Li didn't know what he was thanking for. Was he thanking Mu Yu for the pill formulas, or for not having any other plans to take action?

"It's alright, we have a good relationship after all, these things are of no value to me."

"Although the path of cultivation for those with pseudo-spiritual roots is somewhat difficult, I believe that you, Han Li, will definitely be able to establish your foundation."

"Let's keep these things until we reach the Foundation Establishment stage."

Mu Yu deliberately emphasized the words "east" and "west," and Han Li immediately understood, without saying anything about the little green bottle.

Next, the two chatted casually about Foundation Establishment.

When Han Li heard that the Heavenly Spiritual Root Foundation Establishment did not require Foundation Establishment Pills, he was quite upset.

There was no need for Foundation Establishment Pills, and naturally, there were none left on hand.

In fact, if Mu Yu were to ask Linghu Laozu for them, he could probably get one or two, but a mere one or two would be far from enough for Han Li to establish his foundation.

Therefore, the Blood Forbidden Land plan was practically Han Li's only option.

"Golden Cicada Mother-Child Blade, Black Iron Flying Shield, three Heavenly Thunder Seeds, and these talismans... as well as Golden Light Brick Talisman Treasure."

"These things should be enough to get to the Crimson Forbidden Land, and enough to exchange for the few spirit herbs you have."

Mu Yu winked at Han Li, and Han Li immediately reacted, taking out several jade boxes from his storage bag. Just as he was about to take out more, Mu Yu raised her hand to stop him.

"That's enough. Now, focus on studying those pill formulas and try to improve your cultivation before you reach the Crimson Forbidden Land."

"To be honest, you can just mix up any pills you want for the Qi Refining stage, but once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, Han Li, you'd better find a proper alchemist to avoid wasting materials."

"Don't worry, with my connections, no one else can take away a single one of the medicinal herbs you brought out."

After saying these words, Mu Yu left the Spirit Herb Garden.

After Mu Yu left, Han Li stood there in a daze for a long time before taking out the jade slip that Mu Yu had given him and probing it with his divine sense.

Inside the jade slip, besides several recipes for Qi Refining stage pills, there were also some notes recorded by Mu Yu.

The gist of it is that he has already become a disciple of Linghu Laozu and carries a wisp of Linghu Laozu's divine sense with him. Although it is uncertain whether the divine sense has a monitoring function, it is best not to mention the Palm Heaven Bottle in front of him.

Aside from that, there were just some trivial matters.

For example, tell Han Li not to concoct medicines indiscriminately after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, so as not to waste spiritual herbs.

He has also learned alchemy and is quite skilled at it.

Upon seeing these words, Han Li felt an even stronger sense of unease.

He's a genius at cultivation, that's one thing, but how come he's also good at miscellaneous tasks? He can learn to draw talismans in no time, and alchemy is no challenge for him either…

……

At this moment, Mu Yu looked at the few thousand-year-old spiritual herbs he had taken from Han Li and decided to take them to Elder Linghu to beg for some.

Even a thousand-year-old spiritual herb can have some effect on a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

It's safer for me to buy the goods and deliver them directly to Han Li than to risk him going to the market.

As for the Linghu Ancestor's divine sense within Mu Yu, it naturally had no ability to monitor him...

Of course, Mu Yu wasn't actually sure; he just sensed that there was no problem through his talent for seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.

In short, as long as the feeling of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is a good omen, then there is no problem.

Therefore, Mu Yu's actions could not be considered deceiving Han Li. The inner demon oath only forbids lying, not necessarily revealing the whole truth.

The reason for doing this was naturally to deepen her relationship with Han Li, and nothing was more appropriate than going through a crisis together.

……

Upon returning to Linghu Patriarch's cave, Mu Yu presented the few thousand-year-old spiritual herbs and reaped a large harvest of spiritual herbs suitable for Foundation Establishment cultivators.

That sheer number is enough to allow four or five Foundation Establishment cultivators to reach the Core Formation stage.

But for Mu Yu, it was just barely enough.

"Disciple, you have a Heavenly Spiritual Root and a Wood Spiritual Body as your foundation. There is absolutely no need for you to cultivate this Three Revolutions Replenishing Yuan Technique."

"After all, you've never experienced any bottleneck in the Core Formation stage."

"Although Qing Yuanzi is indeed exceptionally talented, he has never actually practiced the Three Revolutions Replenishing Yuan Technique."

Seeing that Mu Yu had accepted the pills, Patriarch Linghu offered some earnest advice.

Two years ago, he was somewhat dismissive of Mu Yu's talent for cultivation.

But two years later, facing a disciple who needs to rebuild his foundation three times, Linghu Patriarch's persuasion seems somewhat deliberate.

After all, Mu Yu's talent meant he would hardly encounter any bottlenecks in cultivation, and he had already reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment in just two years.

As long as there are enough pills, the so-called three retraining sessions are just a waste of more than ten years.

"Master, I have a feeling that this set of exercises will be beneficial to me."

"Besides, I'm not short of time."

"By the way, Master, have you found the spirit stone mine I mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Linghu's expression turned somewhat helpless.

With a pat on the storage bag, several items were displayed in front of Mu Yu.

"When others take on a disciple, they usually find one they like. But I'm practically becoming your henchman."

"The things inside Huangfeng Valley are manageable. Two years ago, I went to the Ancient Sword Sect to steal the cultivation technique from the storage bag of a Qi Refining stage kid. Now I'm secretly going to a spirit stone mine jointly mined by several sects to help you find treasure."

"You rebellious disciple, what other ways do you intend to humiliate this old man later?"

Linghu the Elder looked smug and glaring, but inwardly he was quite pleased with himself.

He wished there were more of these kinds of troubles.

Mu Yu ignored Linghu Laozu's performance and began to examine the treasures in front of him one by one.

Two blood jade spiders under the control of the restriction, a Great Teleportation Order, a jade slip containing information about an ancient teleportation array, and nine small round beads of five colors.

The two Blood Jade Spiders have lost their original owner. Although they did not die with their original owner, their potential has inevitably decreased due to the influence of the restriction.

But it doesn't matter, a few years later there will be brand new Blood Jade Spider eggs that can be hatched.

Reaching out to take the jade slip containing the information about the ancient teleportation array, Mu Yu pondered for a moment and then spoke:

"A few years later, the demonic path will soon invade the Yue Kingdom."

"Among the seven sects, Spirit Beast Mountain is an undercover agent of the Spirit Control Sect... no, to be more precise, Spirit Beast Mountain is one of the branches of the Spirit Control Sect."

"If I don't reveal this information, the final result will be that the seven factions of Yue will be defeated and leave Yue."

"And now, I have no idea how it will end."
