Chapter 6: Qi Refining Sixth Layer

"Speak, what is going on today."

After Niu Shouren left, the smile on Wang Jianqiang's face faded, and he looked at Chen Jiaojiao with an expressionless face.

Chen Jiaojiao's pretty face turned pale, and she hurriedly explained, "Uncle, it wasn't me who asked Shouren to come; he insisted on following me himself."

Wang Jianqiang did not speak, still looking at her expressionlessly.

Chen Jiaojiao gave a bitter smile and continued to explain, "In the past, the resources you gave were always plentiful, but the last two times you only gave one Gathering Spirit Pill each; it has been reduced too much."

"Shouren guessed that it must be because he hadn't visited you for too long, causing your dissatisfaction, which is why he insisted on coming along."

"I couldn't stop him, and I had no way to explain, so I could only come with him."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jianqiang's expression relaxed, "Really?"

"Absolutely true." Chen Jiaojiao nodded repeatedly.

Wang Jianqiang had originally guessed that Chen Jiaojiao bringing Niu Shouren this time was to pressure him and extort him.

If that were truly the case, he would decisively cut off ties with Chen Jiaojiao, preferring to become enemies with the two of them rather than give her even a shred of resources.

Hearing Chen Jiaojiao's explanation, his expression completely softened.

"So that's how it is."

He felt somewhat guilty as he held Chen Jiaojiao's shoulders.

"Jiaojiao, it was Uncle who misunderstood you."

"Just now I saw your face was a bit pale, is something uncomfortable?"

"Come, let Uncle check your body carefully."

…………

For the next month, Wang Jianqiang did not go out again and kept refining Pills.

Ever since he awakened the system, he had never failed in refining Pills.

A one-hundred-percent success rate could be called inhuman.

After a month, the previously purchased Medicinal Herbs were all exhausted, and he had obtained fifty Perfect Body Nourishing Pills and fifty Perfect Green Spirit Pills.

At the same time, he had also accumulated a large amount of Cultivation Points.

During this period, Niu Shouren and Chen Jiaojiao came a few more times.

After some polite pleasantries, they would leave, leaving behind the supervisor Chen Jiaojiao.

Niu Shouren thought he had controlled Wang Jianqiang and was smug in his heart.

Little did he know.

The most powerful hunters often appear in the guise of prey.

Wang Jianqiang just looked at his performance indifferently, as if watching a clown.

To him now, Gathering Spirit Pills were just insignificant pocket money.

Cultivation itself is a dull task.

Long-term cultivation is even duller, so it just happened to serve as a diversion during the intervals of cultivation.

Spending a little money for this was nothing.

……

Inside the dim room.

Wang Jianqiang looked at the full 100 Cultivation Points on the Attribute Panel and, without hesitation, added them directly to the Spirit Derivation Art.

Improving the cultivation technique realm could increase the absorption rate of Pills, which was the best way for him to improve his cultivation at present.

His goal was to directly raise the Spirit Derivation Art to the highest Major Accomplishment realm.

"Ding, the Spirit Derivation Art has reached the current highest realm."

"Can consume 500 Cultivation Points to optimize and upgrade, do you wish to optimize and upgrade?"

Hearing the system voice in his mind, Wang Jianqiang was stunned.

Even cultivation techniques could be optimized and upgraded?

Looking at the Attribute Panel, the "Entering the Hall" after the Spirit Derivation Art had changed to "Major Accomplishment," and sure enough, an "optimize and upgrade" option had appeared after it.

His own aptitude was trash, and combined with practicing the Spirit Derivation Art, this common-goods technique, his cultivation was naturally agonizingly slow.

If he could improve the technique level, his cultivation speed would definitely increase significantly.

Thinking of this, Wang Jianqiang felt a surge of excitement.

However, upon seeing the remaining 5 Cultivation Points, his excited mood immediately cooled down.

The Spirit Derivation Art consumed a total of 95 Cultivation Points from Entering the Hall to Major Accomplishment, and these 5 points were what remained.

It was still 495 points short of optimizing and upgrading the Spirit Derivation Art.

This was not a small amount; even if he refined Pills without sleep or rest, he would still need to accumulate for nearly four months!

Wang Jianqiang shook his head and stopped considering these for the time being.

He took out a Perfect Green Spirit Pill and swallowed it.

After the Spirit Derivation Art reached Major Accomplishment, the utilization rate of the medicinal power jumped from thirty percent to seventy percent.

The speed of cultivation improvement increased by more than double.

In just two days.

After refining ten Perfect Green Spirit Pills in one breath, his cultivation successfully broke through, reaching the Qi Refining Fifth Layer.

Just as he was preparing to continue cultivating to break through to the Qi Refining Sixth Layer in one go.

Chen Jiaojiao's voice came from outside the door.

Wang Jianqiang decided to take a break.

Half an hour later.

Chen Jiaojiao took the Gathering Spirit Pill and left, feeling completely satisfied.

After resting for a while, Wang Jianqiang continued his closed-door cultivation.

Ten days later.

Wang Jianqiang, sitting cross-legged, felt his body tremble as his cultivation base broke through once again.

Breaking through from the Qi Refining Fifth Layer to the Qi Refining Sixth Layer consumed thirty-seven Perfect Green Spirit Pills.

He did not intend to refine the remaining 3 Perfect Green Spirit Pills himself.

After his cultivation base reached the Qi Refining Sixth Layer, the speed of cultivation from continuing to consume Perfect Green Spirit Pills plummeted.

To rely on Perfect Green Spirit Pills to break through, one would need to refine at least two or three hundred of them, which would take two or three months even if refined without stopping.

For others, this speed of breakthrough would be considered astonishing.

But he was a cheater.

This breakthrough speed was not worthy of him.

With a surge of his Spiritual Power, he cleared the grime from the surface of his body and headed straight toward the Outer Affairs Hall.
