Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 100: Seize the opportunity

Mi Xiaojing simply didn't want to explain and said, "It's nothing, just an alchemy task."

Guan Shangli was still shocked. The sect's order was just for Mi Xiaojing to refine pills? What a joke! But he didn't dare to continue asking and said, "Then I'll take my leave."

Mi Xiaojing nodded and watched him fly away before sitting down at the stone table and discussing with Wang Weijun.

"They found out that I refined the Cultivating Essence Pill. The sect requires me to complete the task and submit a certain amount of Cultivating Essence Pills. What do you think? I'm curious, how did they know it was me who sold the pills?"

"They don't not know, they're just pretending not to know. With your Foundation Establishment cultivation level, you can't completely conceal it. It's not strange that they found you. Since they ordered you to refine pills, then just do it. There's nothing special about it. Even Elemental Infant stage cultivators can use Cultivating Essence Pills, so of course they would pay attention."

.

Mi Xiaojing smiled bitterly.

"Regardless, they just issued a sect order, they're not forcing me to refine pills."

"Don't dream. This is forcing you to refine pills. You can't explain it, hehe. You're lucky. They must have seen your potential. Otherwise, you would be in a miserable state. It's probably one of the Elemental Infant stage ancestors in the sect who took an interest in you. Consider yourself lucky to have escaped. If the people from Grass-Benevolence Hall had discovered you from the beginning, ha, you would truly be in a miserable state."

After all, Mi Xiaojing was still young and lacked experience. He had just turned fourteen years old. To be precise, he was still a child. Before entering the Western Expansion Sect, he was an innocent child who knew nothing about the cruelty of the world and the deceitfulness of people's hearts. But in Wang Weijun's eyes, all of this was insignificant. He could see through everything at a glance.

"Alright then, I'll refine pills. Regardless, if I want to survive here, I still need to adapt and work hard. Should I hide my alchemy skills a bit?"

"No need, just show them. You can make a list, and I'll give you some pill formulas that can be used by Elemental Infant stage cultivators. Even if you refine low-grade pills, you can still showcase yourself well. Remember, when you can't be low-key, try to be high-profile."

"They want to see your potential, so show them your strength! Only then will they truly value you. Once the higher-ups in the sect value you, although others may be jealous, they won't easily offend you or suppress you. You must take advantage of the situation, take advantage of the influence of the Elemental Infant stage ancestor in the sect. Do you understand?"

Mi Xiaojing asked, "What do you mean? Take advantage? How?"

"You don't need to understand, just do as I say!"

Wang Weijun was very pleased in his heart. He wanted Mi Xiaojing to blindly follow him. Of course, everything he said and did now was for Mi Xiaojing's own good, there was no doubt about it. In order to gain Mi Xiaojing's true trust, he had to consider him. Once time passed, the little guy would definitely understand the benefits.

This kind of subtle influence was truly powerful. Even if Mi Xiaojing was an adult, he might not be able to resist it, let alone the fact that he was still a child. Whether it was experience or knowledge, there was a huge gap between him and Wang Weijun.

"Alright, I'll listen to you!"

Wang Weijun silently laughed in his heart.

Once Mi Xiaojing entered the sight of the sect's elders, his status would be completely different. In the sect, any small piece of news spread quickly. Mi Xiaojing instantly became the most popular person in the entire sect. Because he was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, this caused a great sensation among the mid-level cultivators in the sect.

There were many rumors, almost all of them focused on Mi Xiaojing being a hidden master alchemist. They said that he could refine Foundation Establishment Pills and Cultivating Essence Pills, which was rare for someone who became a master alchemist through their own efforts.

In the Sword Heart Sect, alchemists were in short supply. Suddenly, there was one who could refine pills at the Foundation Establishment and Elemental Infant stages. There were even rumors that he could refine Elemental Infant stage Spirit Pills. Naturally, this caused a sensation.

Mi Xiaojing couldn't stay in his small courtyard anymore. Cultivators kept coming to visit, and their intentions were clear. They hoped to obtain some kind of Spirit Pill from him. Mi Xiaojing was overwhelmed and had no choice but to move to the pill room.

This time, Mi Xiaojing had a decent pill room, second only to Chen Shouyi's best pill room. This was a benefit given by the sect, and it was also equipped with many pill servants. Of course, Mi Xiaojing didn't want them. He didn't want to be accompanied by a group of strangers, and he didn't want others to see how he refined pills.

The sect sent a large amount of pill refining materials and set the task for submission.

Mi Xiaojing had a very high success rate in pill refining. With such a task for submission, he was making a huge profit.

In the pill room, Mi Xiaojing stayed for about twenty days and refined ten batches of Cultivating Essence Pills and three batches of Foundation Establishment Pills. The Foundation Establishment Pills were not for task submission, but for Zhang Ke, Luo Bo, and Wei Fu. With his current strength, all three batches of pills were successful, and he received a total of four high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills and five medium-grade Foundation Establishment Pills.

Among them, the five medium-grade and one high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills were used for trading by Mi Xiaojing. The other three high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills were specifically left for Zhang Ke and the others. When they reached the Great Perfection stage of Qi Refining, the Foundation Establishment Pills would allow them to embark on the true path of cultivation.

One hero has three helpers. Mi Xiaojing understood this principle.

To improve his strength, relying on himself alone was not enough. If he could raise the strength of Zhang Ke and the others, that would be truly formidable. So Mi Xiaojing thought very clearly. As long as it was possible, he would prepare more resources. In the cultivation world, those who possessed a large amount of resources could steadily advance.

Mi Xiaojing's pill refining was a means of accumulating resources. In the cultivation world, those who had a unique skill always lived a comfortable life. However, this unique skill was not easily obtained. Unlike Mi Xiaojing, who easily obtained the inheritance of a super expert, such good fortune was truly rare in the cultivation world.

Mi Xiaojing also successfully refined the White Zeal Pill and the Nurturing Infant Pill. The White Zeal Pill was nothing special, but the Nurturing Infant Pill was an excellent Spirit Pill. However, with Mi Xiaojing's level, he only managed to refine one medium-grade Nurturing Infant Pill and four low-grade Nurturing Infant Pills. This was already beyond Mi Xiaojing's expectations.

These two types of pills were more difficult for Mi Xiaojing to refine. After all, they were Spirit Pills used by Elemental Infant stage cultivators. For him, it was like a child lifting a weight far beyond their own. Even if his skills were good, it was still too difficult. Even Wang Weijun had nothing to say about these results. He could only secretly admire Mi Xiaojing's abnormal talent.
