(Supplementary for ten months. Monthly pass of four thousand plus updates.)
'An exception?' Of course, Miao Yi knew that the so-called exception was due to the contributions he had made to the Vitality Sect. Normally, disciples would not waste materials to practice their skills before they were sufficiently skilled. He accepted the kindness, but where would he find the time to learn such a thing for a hundred years?
Still, he wasn't satisfied. "Master, let me enter the alchemy room in three days to broaden my horizons."
Master Yu Lian didn't refuse and nodded in agreement.
Three days later, when the heavy door to the alchemy room was sealed shut, Miao Yi was already inside the alchemy room.
They had agreed beforehand that since he was inside, he would have to wait here for at least three months. The door wouldn't be opened until the immortal pills were refined, and he wouldn't be let out early …
Three months later, the door to the alchemy room opened again, and Miao Yi silently walked out.
After witnessing the process of refining the Basic Immortal Pill with his own eyes, he had to admit that it was indeed a fusion of experience and skills. It wasn't something that could be mastered in a short period of time. There was always a learning process, and this process required time and repeated successes and failures to accumulate experience and skills.
However, what he lacked now was time, and he didn't have any materials to refine the Basic Immortal Pill. Where would he find the materials to fail and waste? The materials to refine the Basic Immortal Pill were hard to come by, and even if he had them, it wouldn't be good to waste them for practice.
Returning to his residence in the bamboo forest, the Great Scholar Miao paced around the bamboo forest with his hands behind his back for a long time, then stood at the top of the mountain in silence for a long time. In the end, he took a deep breath and made another decision.
He didn't have to do everything himself. If he had the materials to refine the pills, would he be afraid of not having the Basic Immortal Pill? With the materials, he could find someone to refine them, or he could go to the Immemorial Realm and exchange them for the Basic Immortal Pill.
The Immemorial Realm referred to one of the nine heavens of the greater world. The nine heavens referred to the nine realms, namely the Yao, Devil, Ghost, Monster, Human, Immemorial, Unknown, Pure Bliss, and the Celestial Court.
Yao, Devil, Ghost, and Human referred to the places where these four things lived. For example, the place Miao Yi was currently in was the human realm, mainly inhabited by humans.
The Monster referred to the strange places in the universe that were difficult to understand, and filled with endless mysteries.
The Immemorial Realm referred to the places where all kinds of humans, devils, Yao, and ghosts lived together. The market there was all-encompassing, and there were all kinds of things being traded. As long as you had money, there was nothing you couldn't buy, only things you couldn't imagine.
The Unknown Realm referred to an undiscovered place in the depths of the universe. Once they were discovered, they would be listed as one of the six aforementioned realms. For example, the Small Realm that Miao Yi came from was one of the Unknown Realms.
The Seven Realms were equal, and there was no superiority or inferiority. On the other hand, the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and the Heavenly Court, where Lord Buddha and Lord Qing resided, were above the seven realms. It was said to rule over all living beings and all living things in the universe.
All living beings and all things in the universe were thus divided into nine realms, also known as the Nine Heavens.
Miao Yi had been in the outside world for more than a year now, so he had a general understanding of these things. Now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that he was indeed being a little too stubborn. Why did he have to refine it himself? At the very least, he didn't have the time to slowly learn it now. It wasn't far from the thousand-year promise he made. For cultivators, a few hundred years passed too quickly.
With a new train of thought and a new decision in mind, Miao Yi resolutely turned around and walked back into the house. He calmed his heart and focused on his cultivation …
Half a year later, Bao Lian walked into the yard. He stood in front of the closed door and said, "Sir!"
Not long after, the door creaked open. Miao Yi stood at the door and asked, "What is it?"
Bao Lian said, "The Sect Master invites you to the Morality Palace!"
"Thank you!" Miao Yi nodded, then walked out the door and flew away.
When he arrived outside the Morality Palace, the disciple at the door announced Miao Yi's arrival and invited him in.
Inside the main hall, the three Dao Masters and a few Deacons were all present. Miao Yi went up to greet them and asked, "May I know why the Sect Master has summoned me?"
Dao Master Yuling smiled and said, "I have already refined the ten thousand Basic Immortal Pills I promised you." He then nodded to the side.
Dao Master Yu Xu understood. He flipped his hand and a storage ring floated to Miao Yi. "There are ten thousand Basic Immortal Pills in here. Also, there are seven Basic Immortal Pills and one hundred and thirty-six Foundation Pills for you as a Guest Elder of our sect. Take a look and see if there are any mistakes. "
With so many people around, it probably wasn't a mistake! Miao Yi didn't hesitate and immediately put the ring away. He smiled and said, "There's no need to count. The Dao Master's words will never be wrong."
He then cupped his fists towards the Sect Master, Dao Master Yuling, and said, "I just so happen to be here. I have something I would like to ask the Sect Master's permission."
Dao Master Yuling nodded and said, "Speak your mind."
Miao Yi said, "It's just as I said when I first came to the Morality Sect. I've been staying in the Morality Sect for over a year now, and I've been thinking about going out to explore the world. I hope the Sect Master will grant me this. "
Everyone exchanged glances with each other when they heard this.
Dao Master Yuling said, "You're going out to explore the world, and you're alone. I'm afraid something bad will happen to you. Why don't you wait until you've raised your cultivation to the Purple Lotus realm with the Basic Immortal Pills you have? It'll be much safer that way."
Miao Yi smiled and said, "It's fine. I can cultivate as I travel."
Dao Master Yuling nodded and said, "Since you've already made up your mind, I won't stop you. May I know when you'll be back?"
Miao Yi replied, "I'm just going out to explore the world. I won't be gone for too long. I'll definitely be back soon."
Dao Master Yuling sighed. After all, he had promised that he wouldn't stop him. He could only nod and say, "Then take care of yourself."
"Thank you, Sect Master!" Miao Yi cupped his fists in thanks, then took a few steps back and cupped his fists to bid farewell to everyone. Then, he turned around and left.
He didn't even return to the bamboo grove. After leaving the Morality Palace, he headed straight for the formation's entrance, then quickly flew away.
He did this to be careful. After staying in the Morality Sect for so long, he realized that the Morality Sect was just as its name implied — they were all upright people. However, people's hearts were unpredictable. He had no choice but to be on guard. After all, he had just received so many Basic Immortal Pills. There was no guarantee that someone would covet them. Now that everyone who knew he was leaving was in the Morality Palace, he should leave immediately. Even if someone had the intention, they wouldn't be able to track his movements. He would be able to escape safely and avoid unnecessary trouble.
After circling around the mountains, Miao Yi quickly flew in the direction of the Spirit Island.
The distance that Yu Xu and Dao Master Yu Lian took half a day to cover took Miao Yi almost half a month to reach. Once again, he saw the Purple Dome of Aura.
Hovering in the air above the vast ocean, Miao Yi took out the 'Star Bell' given to him by the Lord of Earth Zhu Qingzhi and rang it rhythmically.
He didn't have to wait too long before a swirling mist squeezed out from the void. Soon, a hollow passage appeared. Miao Yi dove into it and immediately landed on the jade platform that led to the Spirit Island.
As soon as he saw the golden-armored guards at the entrance, Miao Yi was immediately overjoyed. They were none other than Quan Hui and Wang Taiping. He didn't think it would be such a coincidence to run into these two on duty here. The chubby old man, Zhu Qingzhi, was standing in the middle of the jade gateway with his crutch. Clearly, he had received Miao Yi's notice and rushed over. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible for all three of them to be here to welcome Miao Yi.
The three of them glared at him coldly, their eyes brimming with killing intent.
Zhu Qingzhi sneered, "You've got guts. How dare you come here."
Miao Yi teased, "What? You want to silence me? Since I dared to come here, I'm not afraid of you. I'll tell the three of you that my cultivation is only at the Red Lotus Seventh Grade! " He raised his hand and swiped, invoking a technique to erase the Soul Concealing Paste between his eyebrows, revealing the vivid and lifelike Red Lotus of the Seventh Stage.
Their expressions contorted as they recalled how they were fooled by Miao Yi back then. When they realized that Miao Yi only had a Red Lotus Seventh Grade cultivation, they were so furious that they wanted to vomit blood.
The three of them were already quickly scanning their surroundings, all of them eager to make a move. Indeed, they wanted to kill him to silence him.
However, when he thought about it, he felt that it wasn't right. There was no reason for this fellow to come here to die. He was completely fearless. Zhu Qingzhi winked at the two on his left and right, signaling them not to be impulsive. He then sneered and said, "It seems that there are people who are not afraid of death in this world."
"Afraid of death? This Niu also crawled out from a pile of dead people. Just the three of you can't threaten me! " Miao Yi placed his hands behind his back and calmly said, "It's not like my Vitality Sect doesn't have people in the Celestial Court. I don't mind telling them everything. If I don't make it back safely in time, someone will naturally report the matter of you three embezzling to the Celestial Court! Exchanging the life of a Red Lotus cultivator for the lives of three Purple Lotus cultivators is not a bad deal at all! I will stand right here. I won't run or escape, and I won't retaliate either. If you want to make a move, come at me! "
As soon as he said this, the three of them were so furious that their faces flushed red. They gritted their teeth.
Zhu Qingzhi's hand that was holding onto his crutch trembled a little. Quan Hui even pointed his halberd at Miao Yi's chest, gritting his teeth as he said, "Niu brat, what do you want? I advise you not to push us too far. Otherwise, we'll just die together! "
Miao Yi pushed the halberd aside and said bluntly, "Don't worry. I'm not asking you to go pick more immortal fruits. I just need your help with a small matter."
Hearing that he wasn't forcing them to go pick more immortal fruits, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. They thought this guy was addicted to the fruits.
Zhu Qingzhi asked, "If you have something to say, spit it out!"
"You're a straightforward person!" Miao Yi gave him a thumbs up, then said, "I want to plant the Five Elemental Spiritual Herbs. Give me ten of each with their roots. I know you specialize in growing Yellow Jade Branches and Blood Jade Branches here, but you have others as well. "
The Five Elemental Spiritual Herbs didn't have seeds. Most of them were born naturally. If he wanted to plant them, he could only work on their roots. For example, the root system of the Blood Jade Branches could be cut into several pieces with their roots, then placed in a suitable place to plant them. As long as everything went well, he would be able to plant many of them. He had already figured out how to plant them when he was in the Vitality Sect.
He wasn't familiar with this place, so he couldn't find a suitable place to plant them. He planned to bring them back to the small world to try planting them.
Zhu Qingzhi lowered his voice and said, "Are you kidding me? Every single immortal herb here is registered. If we give them to you, what are we going to do?"
