"Senior, this is your room. My name is He Li. You can ask me to do some chores."
The female cultivator who led the way bowed to Ning Qi, her eyes rippling.
Ning Qi smiled and threw an Earth Spirit Pill to her. "I'm going into seclusion to cultivate. I'll call you if there's anything."
With that, he entered the room and closed the door. He Li looked at the Earth Spirit Pill in her hand with a hint of surprise in her eyes. For an Earth Immortal like her, the Earth Spirit Pill could improve her cultivation and was very valuable. Even if she worked in the Taichu Chamber of Commerce, her salary was higher than the monthly cultivation resources she received when she was in the sect.
This Earth Spirit Pill was equivalent to half a month of her salary. Moreover, she discovered that this Earth Spirit Pill's grade was extremely high. It was a top grade second-tier pill. This made her even more delighted.
After the surprise, He Li looked at the closed door with some disappointment. Ning Qi had said that he was going into seclusion, which meant that she would not have the chance to meet him during this period of time. Without the chance to meet him, she naturally would not have the chance to get any benefits.
After Ning Qi entered the room, he set up a restrictive spell on the door. The door itself had a restrictive spell, and with the addition of Ning Qi's restrictive spell, even a Zenith Heaven could not leave the door intact. If anyone entered his room, Ning Qi would basically know.
The top cultivation training ground.
Ning Qi swallowed one Primordial Dao Pill after another, and the majestic Immortal Qi filled his body. It kept flowing and was absorbed by Ning Qi, turning into drops of True Liquid in his fourth immortal meridian. Ever since he broke through to the early Golden Immortal Stage, Ning Qi discovered that the speed at which he absorbed the Immortal Qi was at least twenty times faster than before. Perhaps this was the benefit brought about by the Thirteen Immortal Bones Tribulation. Both his root bone and comprehension ability had been improved, so the speed at which he absorbed the Immortal Qi depended on
In the past, Ning Qi would have needed at least a month to absorb the amount of Spirit Qi produced by a top-grade fifth-grade Primordial Dao Pill. Now, he could completely absorb it for his own use in a day.
Otherwise, Ning Qi would not have been able to raise his cultivation to the peak early-stage Golden Immortal so quickly.
At the rate of one Primordial Dao Pill a day, ten thousand Primordial Dao Pills would be enough for Ning Qi to use for about thirty years. Whether he could break through to the mid-stage Golden Immortal depended on this!
Days passed in the outside world.
As the Immortal Ascension Assembly approached, the number of immortals on the island increased. All the rooms in the Jade Bamboo House that Ning Qi lived in were occupied, including the Heaven and Earth rooms. Those who could live in the Heaven rooms were at least almighty figures of the Xuan Immortal Realm.
"That senior seems to be in his room all this time and has never come out. He Li, do you want to go knock on his door and remind him that the Immortal Ascension Assembly is starting tomorrow?"
"Senior said that he's in seclusion. It's not good for me to disturb him, right?"
He Li was in a difficult position.
A woman sneered and said, "What are you afraid of? Do you think we didn't notice that you've been loitering around there every day? "
He Li smiled nonchalantly and said, "What's wrong with wandering around? Who asked that senior to be so generous and give me an Earth Spirit Pill? If you guys are envious, then go and take a stroll. " The girls immediately felt jealous and envious, but this feeling only lasted for an instant. Their monthly salary was equivalent to two Earth Spirit Pills. Although a mere Earth Spirit Pill was quite valuable, it could not be considered a true fortuitous encounter. What they were thinking was that if any senior took a fancy to them, they would be able to obtain it.
In the future, they would be able to consume at least a dozen Earth Spirit Pills every month. That would be considered reaching the heavens in a single step!
"There's a guest."
Xiao Lan, who was behind the counter, suddenly reminded them.
At this moment, an old man slowly walked into the Jade Bamboo House. Behind him, an incomparably huge tortoise followed closely behind the old man.
"I want a room. Do you still have any woodshed left?"
The tortoise-riding old man said lightly.
From his tone, it seemed that he did not want to live in a woodshed, but in a Heaven room. Ever since he received the news that the Immortal Ascension Gathering would be held on Blue Water Planet, he immediately rushed there. Unfortunately, he was very far from Blue Water Planet. It was not easy for him to rush here, but it was too late. He had asked a few houses in a row, and even the woodshed was occupied. This Jade Bamboo House was his last.
He was the last to arrive. If he didn't have a room, he could only stay outside the island. To him, this was a very shameful thing.
Could it be that he had to leave the island after participating in the Immortal Ascension Gathering and live outside the island? Come back the next day? That was too degrading!
"Woodshed …"
Xiao Lan was stunned for a moment. Then, seeing that the old man did not seem to be joking, she quickly nodded. "Senior, the woodshed is empty …"
"Then hurry up and help me settle in. What are you waiting for?"
The tortoise-riding old man scolded with his brows furrowed.
Xiao Lan was startled. She nervously helped the tortoise-riding old man settle in. He Li and the others were also somewhat silent. They looked at the tortoise-riding old man with fear in their eyes.
Of course, they did not dare to offend such a hot-tempered guest.
"Senior, please come with me."
He Li glanced at her colleagues who were all hiding far away and cursed in her heart. Then, she smiled and said to the tortoise-riding old man.
The tortoise-riding old man sized her up and nodded slowly. Under He Li's lead, they arrived at the woodshed of the Jade Bamboo House.
He Li subconsciously wanted to turn and leave, but was stopped by the tortoise-riding old man.
"Senior, is there anything else?"
He Li smiled embarrassedly.
"Are you looking down on me?"
The tortoise-riding old man looked at He Li coldly.
He Li's expression suddenly changed, and she quickly said, "Senior, what are you talking about? How would I dare to do that!"
"Then why are you in such a hurry?"
The tortoise-riding old man sneered and casually threw two Earth Spirit Pills to He Li. However, they were different from the second-tier supreme-grade Earth Spirit Pills that Ning Qi had given her. They were two low-grade second-tier Earth Spirit Pills with some mottled impurities.
He Li quickly thanked him after receiving them. Just as she was about to leave, the tortoise-riding old man said faintly, "I still have something to ask you. Come in with me."
With that, the tortoise-riding old man entered the room, but the door was wide open. It seemed like he was waiting for He Li to enter.
The old tortoise-riding old man stretched out his neck and glanced at He Li. At this moment, He Li seemed to see an incomparably strange smile on its face. He Li's face instantly turned incomparably pale, and her body could not help but tremble. If it was a younger existence, she might have entered. However, the tortoise-riding old man exuded a rotten aura from head to toe. Apart from that, he had a very bad temper. He Li could not help but think of the past.
She had heard that some immortals were secretly very terrifying. They would casually torture some servant girls to death …
Therefore, He Li did not know whether to enter or leave.
"Still not coming in?"
