Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

The entire bedroom was filled with hot mist.

The Wood Spirit Root combined with Wood Spirit Power to serve as firewood, causing the Fire Spirit Root and Fire Spirit Power to burn ever more vigorously.

Combined with the Ice Soul Pearl's assistance, Yu Caiqing's Ice-Water Spirit Root mutated very quickly; she was very satisfied with the performance of the person beside her: "With your help, my Ice-Water Spirit Root will be able to mutate into an Ice Spirit Root before the Start of Summer."

Xu Zhangqing opened the window, letting the cold wind from outside rush in to blow away the heat inside the room, then spoke: "Senior Sister, I learned a piece of news unexpectedly during this trip to the Youquan Medicine Garden."

Yu Caiqing's gaze flowed, revealing a water-like tenderness: "What news?"

Xu Zhangqing continued: "Youquan said that after the Formal Disciple Competition ends, the Gui Xu Secret Realm, which opens once every 101 years, will appear."

Yu Caiqing nodded slightly: "I've heard of this secret realm; inside there are many Extreme Yin spirit plants, treasures, and also many highly poisonous medicinal herbs.

What, are you interested?"

Xu Zhangqing shook his head: "With my strength, going to participate would be no different from courting death."

Yu Caiqing asked with interest: "If you don't plan to go, then why mention it?"

Xu Zhangqing said seriously: "Since the Gui Xu Secret Realm is about to open, doesn't that mean the prices of all kinds of Extreme Yang spirit plants, pills, treasures, and spirit tools will also see an increase?"

Yu Caiqing wasn't stupid either; she understood instantly: "I get it, you want to take this opportunity to plant some Extreme Yang spirit plants to sell?"

"Correct." Xu Zhangqing gave an affirmative answer.

At the same time, he silently supplemented in his heart.

Not just Extreme Yang spirit plants.

Also pills.

Also spirit tools.

Selling barbecue seasoning, roasted meat, and ingredients nowadays actually doesn't earn much.

Only alchemy and artifact refining are the most outrageous profits among outrageous profits.

Any cultivator cannot do without these things.

Especially when going to the Gui Xu Secret Realm, prices will absolutely skyrocket.

Yu Caiqing laughed lightly: "You know, once my Ice-Water Spirit Root successfully mutates, all attention will be focused on the Yin-Yang Intersection Pill."

The meaning being, although this is indeed an opportunity to make a fortune.

She simply isn't interested.

She's a rich woman to begin with, not lacking spirit stones at all.

No need to waste time refining Yang-attribute pills.

Xu Zhangqing said with some regret: "Alright then."

Yu Caiqing spread her tender white arms, stretched lazily, then said: "The Dan Pavilion is conducting its annual dividend distribution these days; as a resident Senior Alchemist I cannot be absent, so I won't be able to accompany you."

"Then how about..." Xu Zhangqing blinked his eyes.

Yu Caiqing's cheeks flushed red, her expression coquettishly annoyed as she gave him a sidelong glance.

Afterwards.

Yu Caiqing departed.

Xu Zhangqing lay on the nanmu bed, carefully sensing the Fire Spirit Power in his Qi Sea.

Although, during this period his Wood Spirit Power and Wood Spirit Root had been exploited quite miserably.

But at the same time, stimulated by Senior Sister Yu's Ice-Water Spirit Root, his Thunder-Fire Spirit Root not only strengthened further, but his Fire Spirit Power also increased.

Previously, because there was no place to absorb Fire Spirit Qi, his Fire Spirit Power accumulated very little.

But now, it has not only caught up to the concentration of his Wood Spirit Power, but even faintly shows signs of surpassing it.

And there is another piece of good news.

The speed of the Earth Spirit Root's birth has also accelerated.

According to previous understanding, the first spirit root to be born takes at least a hundred years.

But now, under the high-intensity stimulation of both sides being mutated spirit roots, it seems to have shortened.

Meaning, Xu Zhangqing's first truly self-born spirit root might only take a few decades.

Obviously, this is the benefit brought by dual cultivation.

No wonder so many cultivators start seeking Dao Companions as early as the Qi Refining Stage.

Next, Xu Zhangqing got up to cook.

Considering Lin An might come, he made a bit extra.

After handling daily matters, he once again went to the Basement Second Floor.

The alchemy and artifact refining equipment were placed quietly.

These past few days, because Yu Caiqing kept staying overnight, he hadn't used them.

His hands were really itching.

Now, since he had bought several highly poisonous medicinal herbs from Youquan, plus Senior Sister Yu would be staying at the Dan Pavilion for several more days.

It was just the right opportunity to refine a few Blood Gourds.

Let's see if this time he can produce a Top-grade Spirit Tool.

He didn't bother with anything else and did it as soon as he said it.

Compared to the entry-level spirit tool Qingmu Needle.

This Blood Gourd is much higher grade.

Therefore, there is a possibility of refining failure.

As for materials now, the Bamboo Gourd is ready, and the Blood Sha Yi Wood is also ready.

Other miscellaneous mineral ingredients are all available in the storage space.

Forging only requires putting it into the mold to shape, then knocking it a bit.

But artifact refining, although the first step is roughly the same, the subsequent steps have huge differences.

It almost doesn't need knocking, but is put into the mold, then various materials are added; the key is control over fire, temperature, spiritual power, and time.

Moreover, artifact refining cannot use mundane fire; although it shapes the same, the quality will be very poor.

It's best to use a fire spiritual root to burn the fire spiritual power in the Qi Sea.

The layman's term is burning away impurities.

The insider's term is shedding the mortal womb.

Xu Zhangqing quickly found the spirit artifact mold for refining the gourd, then took out five Lightly Vitality Gourds of almost exactly the same size from the storage space.

Actually, he has dozens of such things.

Back when he asked Zhu Tong to refine it, he only used one.

When mutation occurred, a full forty-two were produced.

Light the fire.

Control the temperature.

Melt the mineral materials with the Yellow Brass Crucible.

Cut open the Blood Sha Yi Wood and obtain the blood-colored liquid inside.

Although it's the first time refining the Blood Gourd, the steps are very proficient.

Now Xu Zhangqing, in terms of artifact refining skill, has reached Miao Shou Level.

Time passed second by second just like that.

Just as the Lightly Vitality Gourd was taking shape.

Suddenly, Lin An's weak call came from above.

"Senior Brother Xu?"

"Are you there?"

"I'm coming!"

Xu Zhangqing frowned, had to interrupt the artifact refining, turned around and walked upstairs.

Coming to the ground, he found Lin An standing at the gate, occasionally looking inside.

Seeing him come out, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Zhangqing stepped forward and asked: "What's wrong?"

Lin An quickly replied: "Nothing, it's just that Earth Spirit Root Disciples want to come here to reclaim Ling Field Fourth Mu."

Xu Zhangqing was stunned: "In such cold weather, they're actually willing to come?"

Lin An scratched his head: "I don't know either, anyway once they hear your name, these Earth Spirit Root Disciples are all very excited."

Xu Zhangqing asked tentatively: "Let me guess, the leading Earth Spirit Root Disciple is tall and strong, is his name Wu Guangman?"

"How do you know?" Lin An was very surprised.

Xu Zhangqing extended his right hand, pointing to Second Mu and Third Mu Ling Field, smiling: "These two mu of Ling Field are both their team's masterpiece."

Lin An suddenly understood: "No wonder as soon as they heard they'd help you reclaim land, they don't rest even in winter, they must rush over, and can't be stopped!"
