Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 350: Pill Refinement Competition Schedule

"Hehe, only someone as foolish and wealthy as you would spend such a high price to buy the Ascension Pill. If you really need it, you can come to me. I have an unlimited supply of high-grade spirit stones, one hundred per pill."

"Huh? Could it be that you're the one who refines the Ascension Pill?"

The white-clad girl finally realized.

No wonder there was a faint medicinal fragrance on Lu Yu's body. So he is an alchemist.

If that's the case...

Her eyes turned, and she suddenly smiled.

"Since Young Master Lu has discovered that it is injured, then you should be able to heal it, right?"

"Naturally. But it has already decided to go with you, so why should I bother saving it?"

"In that case, it won't leave. Xiao Bai, you stay here first, and we'll leave after Young Master Lu has healed your injuries."

"Squeak..."

The white fox let out a soft cry, then obediently returned to the cage.

After entering, it casually ate a spirit beast pill and used its tail to close the cage door.

The movement was as smooth as closing the door to its own room.

"You bought it, so you wouldn't let it die from illness, right?"

"You're quite calculating. Forget it, I will heal it."

Lu Yu waved his hand lightly.

This fox is indeed cunning.

After receiving his affirmative answer, the white-clad girl smiled lightly and then disappeared in the courtyard.

Seeing her figure leave, Lu Yu shook his head with a headache.

He had put a lot of effort into setting up the formation in this courtyard, but it seemed useless against this white fox girl.

She comes and goes as she pleases.

"I should quickly improve my strength and learn more advanced formations."

Lu Yu sighed and then entered the quiet room alone.

After taking a red pill, he began to cultivate in the quiet room.

The red pill has a characteristic similar to the Qi-replenishing pill, which is that it can be taken freely without worrying about the diminishing effectiveness of the medicine.

Generally, the more pills one takes to improve their cultivation, the less effective they become.

But the red pill doesn't have this concern.

After cultivating for a night, the next morning, just as he was about to start refining pills, Xiao Yu hurriedly ran in.

"Young Master, there's a guest."

"Guest?"

Lu Yu was slightly stunned, then released his divine sense.

When he sensed the person who had come, he felt a bit speechless.

This woman had come yesterday and probably confirmed that he wasn't a bad person, so she boldly came to his door in broad daylight.

He had a feeling that she was taking advantage of him, but he had no evidence.

"This young lady..."

"I'm called Bai Xiaoxi, you can call me by my name."

Bai Xiaoxi sat in the living room without any hesitation and poured herself a cup of tea.

"Alright, Miss Bai, what brings you here this time? Are you here to watch me treat your fox?"

"Not really, I just don't have a place to stay temporarily and I feel that it's relatively safe here."

Bai Xiaoxi said without any reservation.

As a nine-tailed fox in human form, ordinary cultivators couldn't see through her identity.

But those Nascent Soul stage old monsters would probably recognize her true form at a glance.

So she doesn't dare to show her face too often outside.

"Alright, do as you please."

Lu Yu shrugged and let her go.

Casually throwing two healing spirit beast pills to Bai Hu, it was considered to have fooled Bai Xiao Xi.

Then he started refining pills and cultivating with Ming Xin, who had just woken up.

Now his strength has unknowingly reached the sixth level of the Foundation Building stage, and as long as he eats a few more Red Pills, he can reach the seventh level.

Reaching the seventh level of the Foundation Building stage is already considered the late stage of Foundation Building.

At this rate, it won't be long before he can form a Golden Core.

"Golden Core stage, it still feels so far away."

While refining pills, Lu Yu shook his head.

But it's already very good.

Before, he spent several years in the Qi Refining stage without any progress.

Now, he is very satisfied with his cultivation speed.

"The Pill Refining Competition is tomorrow. Are you confident in getting first place? It is said that people from the Medicine King Valley are also participating, and their pill refining skills are very powerful."

While refining pills, Ming Xin casually said.

"The Medicine King Valley? The sect that is rumored to make a living by refining pills? They are indeed troublesome opponents."

Lu Yu lightly shook his head.

Although he has never seen anyone from the Medicine King Valley, he has always heard their legends.

The Medicine King Valley is abundant in various spirit herbs, and they have abundant resources to practice refining various pills.

Therefore, the pill refining skills of the disciples of the Medicine King Valley are very powerful, and they are very famous in the entire cultivation world.

If they also participate in the Pill Refining Competition, they would be formidable opponents.

"By the way, have you participated in the Pill Refining Competition before? How is this competition conducted?"

"Ah? You dared to sign up without even knowing how the competition is conducted? Hehe, you really have great courage as a newcomer in the pill refining world."

Ming Xin had long known that Lu Yu was a novice in the world of pill refining, so she just chuckled.

Although he is not familiar with the rules and such, his strength is still very good.

At least she is currently inferior to him.

"Because there are many pill refiners participating in the Pill Refining Competition each time, the competition is divided into two parts."

After organizing her thoughts, Ming Xin continued.

"In the first stage, the judges will give everyone a commonly used pill to refine, and then they will score the participants based on the speed of refining, the quantity and quality of the pills produced. Finally, they will directly select sixteen participants to enter the next round."

"The next round is a one-on-one match. As for the topics of the match, they are different each time, so it depends on the selection at that time."

"The first round selects only sixteen people? Doesn't that mean that most of the participants will be eliminated all at once?"

Lu Yu was surprised when he heard this.

After this first round of competition, ninety percent of the pill refiners would probably be eliminated, but those who can stay are definitely the elites among the elites.

It's really cruel.

"Yes, but once you can luckily make it into the top sixteen, you will become famous. At that time, you will become the target of various major forces, and it will definitely be a win-win situation in terms of fame and fortune. So many people, even if their strength is average, want to try their luck."

"Hehe, what use is luck in the face of absolute strength?"

Lu Yu lightly shook his head.

Pill refining is not like rolling dice. A truly powerful pill refiner will never make a mistake when they make a move. They have a clear idea of how many pills of what quality they can refine.

If it really depends on luck... how good of luck is needed to surpass absolute strength?

"Don't worry, with our strength, it will definitely be no problem to pass the first round. It's just that it won't be so easy to get the first place in the end."

"We'll adapt accordingly when the time comes."

Lu Yu nodded.

Although he is confident in his pill refining skills, the reputation of the Medicine King Valley is too great, so he has to take it seriously.
