Chapter 738: The Power of Mu Lingxi

~8 min read 1,446 words

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Mu Lingxi was eager to try.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "No rush, we need to give Xuan Che more time, let him help us find more opportunities."

"To slaughter a pig, one must first fatten it up, right?"

"Moreover, the value of the Medicinal Herbs in this Medicine Realm is astonishing. Since you have just entered the Medicine Realm, let's not rush to leave; let's try wandering around here to see if we can be lucky enough to obtain a few stalks."

Mu Lingxi nodded repeatedly, "Senior Brother is still the most thoughtful."

"But since we are not in a hurry, why not take advantage of this auspicious day of my resurrection to celebrate properly?"

After speaking, she looked at Wang Jianqiang with eager eyes.

Wang Jianqiang patted his forehead with some annoyance, "Look at my memory, Senior Brother almost forgot."

"You are right, on such a great day, we should celebrate properly."

Ten days later.

Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi departed.

They flew across the Medicine Realm.

Mu Lingxi's luck was clearly much better than Wang Jianqiang's.

Previously, apart from relying on his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze to cheat and robbing Xuan Che, Wang Jianqiang had only obtained some Medicinal Herbs when Xuan Che's life was in danger.

Counting it up, if he relied solely on his own fortune, he hadn't obtained a single stalk of Medicinal Herb.

Yet Mu Lingxi, in over ten days of searching, had obtained two stalks of Medicinal Herbs.

Such fortune, naturally, could not be compared to someone favored by luck like Xuan Che.

But compared to ordinary people, it was already considered quite good.

Afterwards, Wang Jianqiang calculated the time.

Half of the one-year period had already passed.

There was still half a year left before the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm would close.

Having stayed in the Medicine Realm for quite a while, it was time to go slaughter the pig.

But before that...

"Lingxi, you need to change your appearance."

Wang Jianqiang looked at Mu Lingxi's flawless, pretty face and spoke.

Mu Lingxi's appearance had not been exposed to any Out-of-Boundary Cultivators, but her looks were too eye-catching.

Moreover, the number of people who entered the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm was limited; the appearance of a strange face would be too abrupt.

For safety's sake, it was better to change it.

Afterwards, under Wang Jianqiang's guidance, Mu Lingxi transformed into the appearance of a beautiful woman.

Although this appearance was still beautiful and refined, compared to Mu Lingxi's original looks, it was already considered far more ordinary.

More importantly.

The origin of this appearance would not arouse suspicion.

This woman was none other than the woman among the three Jade Cauldron Sect Core Disciples who had been drawn over because of the massive commotion caused when Mu Lingxi was resurrected.

Her name was Zilan, a Seventh-Order Will Stage Cultivator.

Afterwards, Wang Jianqiang took out the Jade Pendant he had previously phased out for concealing his aura and gave it to Mu Lingxi.

With this item on her, no one in this Secret Realm could see through her Disguise.

As for after leaving the Secret Realm, he had his own other methods.

After finishing the preparations.

The two flew straight toward the direction of the teleportation portal.

Then, without the slightest hesitation, they held hands and entered the teleportation portal directly.

The next moment.

A force of teleportation immediately acted upon the two of them.

This force seemed to want to separate the two, pulling them in two different directions.

Mu Lingxi frowned, and her power expanded, enveloping both her and Wang Jianqiang simultaneously.

Following the appearance of Mu Lingxi's power.

They seemed to be recognized as a single entity by the teleportation force, and that pulling force vanished.

A blur passed before their eyes.

When their vision cleared, they discovered they had arrived in an empty space.

Compared to the vast and boundless Medicine Realm.

The space here was much smaller.

Looking into the distance, one could see a tall tower standing in the center of this space, piercing straight into the clouds.

Is that the Pill Tower?

Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi both revealed expressions of regret.

Xuan Che was in the Artifact Hall; this way, the pig-slaughtering operation would have to be delayed for a while.

"That's fine too, the longer the time, the fatter the pig, and the greater the harvest will be after slaughtering it."

Wang Jianqiang smiled.

"Hehehe, Senior Brother is right."

Mu Lingxi nodded with a smile, "But come to think of it, besides that Xuan Che, aren't there many other disciples from the Four Great Powers?"

"Although these people's luck is not as good as Xuan Che's, if we rob them one by one, little by little, we should be able to have a decent harvest."

Hearing Mu Lingxi's suggestion, Wang Jianqiang nodded with a face full of admiration, "Not bad, not bad; Senior Brother happens to have the same intention."

After the two finished discussing, they acted immediately and entered the Pill Tower.

The Pill Tower has nine levels in total.

Each level is an independent world.

The higher one goes, the more abundant the hidden opportunities.

Legend has it that before the Pill Emperor passed away, he exhausted his final vitality to refine a furnace of Pills.

This furnace of Pills is in the ninth-level space at the very top of the Pill Tower.

It is just a pity.

Since the Four Great Powers discovered the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm, only a few people have been able to enter the ninth level of the Pill Tower space.

As for the Great Pill left behind by the Pill Emperor, no one has been able to obtain it to this day.

After the two entered the first-level space of the Pill Tower.

They flew straight toward the core location of the first-level world.

Whoosh~

Having flown only a short distance, a translucent strange bird with a body condensed from gas attacked the two of them.

"It's a Pill Beast."

Wang Jianqiang's expression stirred.

Pill Beasts are unique products within the Pill Tower.

This Pill Tower possesses a peculiar power that can use the Pills within the tower as a core to condense the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth, forming a strange creature: a Pill Beast.

No, it cannot be called a creature.

Pill Beasts have no life; it is more accurate to call them a special type of Puppet.

Seeing that the Pill Beast was already approaching.

Mu Lingxi waved her hand casually.

A slender streak of white Spiritual Power shot out.

The strength of a Pill Beast is directly proportional to the Pill within its body.

In the first-level space, the grade of the Pills is relatively low, so the power of the Pill Beasts condensed is limited.

The attack power of the Pill Beast before them was only at the level of a Second-tier Will Level.

However, this strike from Mu Lingxi did not use the slightest bit of Will Power.

Because it lacked the reinforcement of Will Power, the power of this strike was only slightly stronger than those ordinary Nascent Soul Stage Perfection cultivators who had not manifested their Will, and it was far weaker than the Pill Beast.

But when this Spiritual Power collided with the Pill Beast's sharp claws.

Unexpectedly, it was not directly swatted away by the Pill Beast.

This Spiritual Power appeared weak, but it seemed capable of constant regeneration; every time a portion was worn away by the Pill Beast, it would immediately "grow" and restore itself to completion.

Under this constant cycle of being destroyed and "growing," it actually neutralized the Pill Beast's attack, which was clearly more powerful.

Life Intent?

Wang Jianqiang raised his eyebrows.

He had originally thought that the specialty of this Life Intent lay in healing; he did not expect it to have such miraculous effects when used for attacking.

Truly strange.

It allows an attack to possess greater resilience and the ability to constantly regenerate; as long as it does not collapse instantly, one can rely on this regenerative ability to wear down the enemy's attack, achieving victory over the strong with the weak.

This is simply a disguised enhancement of one's own attack power.

Viewed in this light, this Life Intent can be called both offensive and defensive!

And this is only a single Life Intent.

If it were the Life and Death Artistic Conception, the power would likely be even greater.

Mu Lingxi's combat ability was already formidable, and after comprehending the Life and Death Artistic Conception, she seems to have become even more monstrous.
