Chapter 177: Are You a Devil? (Third Update, Eight Chapters Owed)

The Red Snake Fruit is one of the main ingredients for making the Bright Spirit Pill, and it is also the hardest to collect; the other main ingredients are relatively common and can be bought on the market.

Li Runfeng spoke first: "I am more inclined to sell them; the Soul Crystal obtained can also be used to purchase what we each need for cultivation!"

"I agree!" Li Tianyu expressed his agreement.

"I object!" Li Jingyi's almond-shaped eyes widened; because there are not many types of ingredients needed and the refining process is not complicated, the difficulty of refining the Bright Spirit Pill is not very high.

Li Jingyi's idea was very simple: she wanted to refine the Bright Spirit Pill herself. Firstly, she had refined Bright Spirit Pills for the academy for free, and her success rate was already above average; secondly, the price of the finished Alchemical Pill far exceeds that of the ingredients, so even after subtracting the failed pills, there is still enough profit; thirdly, she could take the opportunity to improve her proficiency in refining the Bright Spirit Pill.

When thinking about problems, everyone tends to stand in their own position, and very few people will look at problems from the perspective of others.

"How about this: I will buy your two portions of Red Snake Fruit at the market price, and then entrust Jingyi to help me refine the Bright Spirit Pill. What do you think?"

Li Zhangsheng was also inclined to refine the Bright Spirit Pill, because the effect of the Bright Spirit Pill is quite special; as long as it is taken for a long time, it can effectively strengthen the five senses and the ability to predict danger.

The reason why Li Runfeng and Li Tianyu were inclined to sell the Red Snake Fruit was mainly related to the fact that the Bright Spirit Pill needs to be taken for a long time, which requires a large amount of Bright Spirit Pills; at the same time, they did not want to be too troubled, and only wanted to get this sum of cultivation resources as soon as possible so they could start their plans early.

They did not object to Li Zhangsheng's proposal; selling to anyone is still selling, and besides, Li Zhangsheng was offering the market price, which would also save them some effort.

The Red Snake Fruit was divided into six portions, with 20 Red Snake Fruits in each portion; Li Zhangsheng took three portions for himself, and the other three each took one.

According to the market price, each Red Snake Fruit is equivalent to one Low-grade Soul Crystal; Li Zhangsheng spent 40 Soul Crystals to buy their two portions.

It seemed like it didn't cost much, but refining the Bright Spirit Pill also requires several other main ingredients and auxiliary materials; although the price of these materials is not as high as the Red Snake Fruit, they win in quantity, and Li Zhangsheng still had to spend nearly a hundred Soul Crystals to purchase these materials.

"Jingyi, I'll leave the other materials to you!" Li Zhangsheng handed the Red Snake Fruit and the hundred Soul Crystals to Li Jingyi; he only needed to sit back and enjoy the results.

However, in this way, Li Zhangsheng would have to hand over the majority of the Soul Crystals he had just obtained to Li Jingyi.

He was bankrupt again!

Although he still had two Mid-grade Soul Crystals, those were for him to cultivate his Mental Power; he had to obtain a sum of Soul Crystals in a short period of time to maintain his daily expenses.

Among these expenses, the paid training hall only accounted for a part, and the other part was mainly the food for his Demon Pets; although the materials for making Intermediate Sprite Food are relatively cheap, they win in quantity, especially now that there was the big eater, the Fei-Li Beast.

It wasn't that Li Zhangsheng hadn't thought about using a large amount of ordinary food as a substitute, but that would slow down the growth rate of the Demon Pets and also damage their potential to a certain extent.

"Once I sell this batch of High Quality Fairy, I will execute that plan, and I won't have to worry about cultivation resources in the future!" At this moment, Li Zhangsheng made up his mind.

"Wait for my good news!" Li Jingyi looked elegant and quiet, but she was actually impatient; she couldn't wait to say goodbye to Li Zhangsheng, wanting to go back to refine the Bright Spirit Pill.

She was very interested in alchemy and was often addicted to it, unable to extricate herself; every time she successfully refined an Alchemical Pill, she would have a great sense of accomplishment.

Interest is the best teacher; perhaps she will go very far on this path, who knows what the future holds.

"We are going back too!" After Li Jingyi left, the two, Li Runfeng and Li Tianyu, also proposed to leave.

After the two left, Li Zhangsheng was just about to head to the trading center when, suddenly, a huge ball of meat rolled over.

Fei-Li~

Round-and-Round stuffed a nut covered in tooth marks into Li Zhangsheng's hand, looking at Li Zhangsheng with eager eyes; this was something it had picked from a large tree in the backyard, and it had taken quite a bit of effort.

Because Round-and-Round had ruined the "Eagle Catches the Chick" atmosphere of Aixi and the other Demon Pets like a bowling ball, they were sulking and naturally did not help Round-and-Round pick the nuts.

Although Round-and-Round's digestive ability is extremely strong, it had only been born for two days, so its teeth were naturally still baby teeth; it was normal that it couldn't crack the nut.

Li Zhangsheng took it and applied a little force with two fingers, easily crushing the nut shell; ever since he started practicing the Azure Dragon Constellation Demon Taming Art, his strength had increased significantly.

Crunch~

Then, under Round-and-Round's stunned gaze, Li Zhangsheng threw the fragrant and crispy nut kernel into his mouth, making a crunchy sound.

"Hmm, the taste is quite good!" Li Zhangsheng praised, and reached out to pat Round-and-Round's head.

Are you a Devil?

You actually don't even let go of your Demon Pet's snacks!

Fei-Li~ Fei-Li~

Looking at the few inedible nut shells left in front of it, Round-and-Round suddenly felt sorrow from its heart; at the height of its sadness, it lay on the ground rolling and acting shamelessly, looking like it wouldn't stand up unless he compensated it.

"Round-and-Round, as long as you run ten laps around the yard, I will help you crush this pile of nuts, how about it?"

Li Zhangsheng exerted his Mental Power to the fullest, and a man-made breeze blew slowly, causing his clothes to rustle.

On the nut tree in the backyard, the mature nuts 'automatically' fell off one by one; they didn't fall to the ground, but 'flew' onto the tea table in front of Li Zhangsheng.

Clatter~

Under Round-and-Round's dumbfounded expression, the nuts on the tea table piled higher and higher, and soon the mature nuts on the nut tree were all picked clean.

Li Zhangsheng's yard was not very large, at least it was far from the size of Instructor Ning's yard; one lap was only about a hundred meters, and ten laps were about a thousand meters. His requirements for Round-and-Round were very low; he didn't make Round-and-Round wear weights, nor did he stipulate that Round-and-Round couldn't rest halfway.

Li Zhangsheng's idea was very simple, which was to use Round-and-Round's gluttonous personality to lure it into training with food.

On one side was the nuts it liked, and on the other was the training it hated; Round-and-Round tilted its head and thought for a while, and finally chose to submit.

For the sake of food, it could be said to have gone all out!

Round-and-Round moved its short legs and began to run around the yard; its speed was very slow, only a little faster than a normal person's walking speed.

You cannot have too high expectations for a Demon Pet that has only been born for two days.

Suddenly, Round-and-Round's speed increased sharply; this fellow actually tucked in its hands and feet, and using the advantage of its unusually round body, began to move forward by rolling.

It turned out that Round-and-Round had a flash of inspiration, remembering that it had used rolling to ruin the "Eagle Catches the Chick" game of Aixi and the other Demon Pets not long ago, so it immediately took action.

Li Zhangsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he just turned a blind eye; it was a good thing that Round-and-Round could think of this method, and besides, he only needed to significantly increase the running distance in the future.

Soon, Round-and-Round finished the whole course, panting as it arrived in front of Li Zhangsheng, and stuffed the nut kernels that Li Zhangsheng had already crushed into its mouth without leaving a single one, puffing out its cheeks until they were bulging; its eyes narrowed, revealing a happy expression.

It seemed that as long as there was food, it was happy!
