nAfter Li Mengxi left, Su Yi and Nie Ling also left the trading company.

nAfter a period of time, they also completed the transaction with the demon beast hunting squad.

nA large amount of demon beast materials were stored in the warehouse. At least for a short period of time, the Nie family branch in Central Plains would not be in a desperate situation because of the suppression of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

nDuring this period of time, it just so happened that Nie Ling and Su Yi were preparing to head to the great desolate ruins and the Tiandao sect’s grand competition after it opened.

nAt night, the place where he lived, just when he wanted to tidy up the things in his immortal seal.

nThere was a soft knock on the door, followed by a gentle voice. It was Nie Ling.

n“Fellow Daoist Su, are you resting?”

nSu Yi was puzzled, why did she come so late?

n“Come in, fellow Daoist Nie. I’m not resting.”

nSoon, a beautiful figure walked in from outside the door.

n

n

nNie Ling gently walked to the table and said to Su Yi, “fellow Daoist Su, I’m here to discuss something important with you.”

n“Oh? Is it about the great desolate ruins?” he asked.

nShe had come to look for him in the middle of the night. Apart from the urgent matter three days later, he could not think of anything that required Nie Ling to look for him at night.

n“Yes, that’s right.”

n“This afternoon, I sent someone to inquire about a lot of information about the ruins. Although I still can’t find the exact location, I know how many ruins will appear this time.”

n“Yes, tell me about it,” Su Yi said indifferently.

nSince he had promised Li Mengxi, then he basically would not change his mind, even if Nie Ling knew the exact location of the appearance.

nHowever, he was curious about how many ruins had appeared.

nNie Ling blinked her beautiful eyes. She used her right hand to brush her hair and said leisurely.

n“It’s like this. There are a total of three ruins here. The ruins have been open for a month.”

n“Maybe during this period, we won’t be able to return to Central Plains to resupply.”

n“I’m afraid that we’ll encounter some danger in the ruins. If we can’t resupply…”

nNie Ling’s brows were somewhat solemn, as if she was talking about a big problem.

nHe looked at her and said indifferently, “fellow Daoist Nie, you’re talking about the issue of true essence consumption, right?”

n“Yes,” she replied softly.

nHearing this, he frowned slightly and began to think.

nHe had not paid attention to the aspect of true essence for a long time. When he was in the Qi condensation realm, he had already converted all of his true essence into innate superior clear qi. Moreover, the Tiangang Sword Finger’s consumption was also very low, and he would normally not feel anything.

nHowever, now that Nie Ling mentioned it, Su Yi could not help but think about it carefully.

nHe could not rely on the Tiangang Sword Finger for the rest of his life, right?

nHe might encounter any techniques or spells in the future, the kind that consumed a lot of energy. In that case, he would definitely need to have some supplies.

nSuddenly, he laughed softly as he looked at the stern-looking Nie Ling and said, “fellow Daoist Nie, since you are already prepared, why are you here to make fun of me?”

nAfter saying this, he looked at Nie Ling with a smile on his face.

nWhen Nie Ling saw him in this manner, she withdrew her stern expression and turned it into a faint smile.

nShe gently shook her head and said with a smile. “I really can’t hide anything from you, fellow Daoist Su.”

nAfter saying this, she took out two bottles of medicinal pills from the immortal destiny seal and continued to speak.

n“These are Qi and blood pills and vitality replenishing pills that can only be used by those at the foundation establishment stage. Fellow Daoist Su, you can take a look. After all, these medicinal pills are not very popular on the market.”

nSu Yi received a bottle. There was a mahogany cork on it. He opened it and poured out one pill.

nQi and blood pills and vitality replenishing pills were medicinal pills that were basically unheard of in the Qi condensation realm. It seemed that only those who had reached the foundation establishment realm had the qualifications to consume them.

nHis gaze focused, and the attributes of the medicinal pill quickly appeared in his eyes.

nMedicinal pill: Qi and blood pill

nRank: Middle-grade

nEffect: After consuming it, recover 500 20% of the Qi and blood value of a foundation establishment realm cultivator

nInterval: 1 day

nMiddle-grade: After consuming more than 20 pills, the effect of the medicinal pill’s Qi and blood recovery will reduce by 50%

nLooking at the medicinal pill’s attributes, he smacked his lips. There were only five Qi and blood pills. Nie Ling must have spent a lot of effort to get them.

nThen, he opened another bottle of medicinal pills.

nHe also took out one pill and looked at its attributes.

nMedicinal pill: Vitality replenishing pill

nGrade: Middle-grade

nEffect: After consuming it, recover 500 20% of the true essence of a foundation establishment realm cultivator

nInterval: 1 day

nMiddle-grade: After consuming more than 20 pills, the effect of recovering true essence of the medicinal pill will be reduced by 50%

nLooking at the properties of these two medicinal pills, Su Yi’s eyes flashed.

nThese medicinal pills were good stuff. At the very least, they could save someone’s life at a critical moment.

nHe looked at Nie Ling, and was about to buy them. He asked, “fellow Daoist Nie, these two pills are very difficult to obtain, right? How much are they worth in total?”

nUnexpectedly, Nie Ling replied in dissatisfaction when she heard this.

n“Fellow Daoist Su, I’m not here to sell them to you. Consider it a bit of benefit given by the Nie family’s trading firm to their esteemed guests. You can accept them with peace of mind.”

n“This…”

n“Alright, that’s all. I’ll take my leave first.”

nBefore he could think of a way to pay for the pills, Nie Ling left.

nNie Ling put down the two bottles of medicinal pills and quickly slipped out of his room.

nLooking at the two bottles of medicinal pills on the table, Su Yi could not help but let out a bitter laugh. The connection between him and the Nie family had deepened.

nHe waved his hand and stored the two bottles of medicinal pills into the interspatial seal.

nHe looked at the items in the seal space and nodded slightly. Then, he thought of the interface that he had not looked at for a long time.

n“Speaking of which, the monthly gift packs have also refreshed, right?”

nAs he said that, he opened the interface and found that the weekly gift packs and the monthly gift packs had already refreshed for a long time. Recently, he had been busy with other things and had no time to care about the refresh time of the gift packs.

nMonthly gift pack: 10,000 yuan. Can be bought once a month. Contains: Top-grade mountain and river painting x 1, ruin jade x 100, true understanding of spells x 10, cultivation points x 3000

n

nLooking at the monthly gift bag that had lit up again, he tapped his finger lightly.

nHint: You have spent 10,000 yuan to purchase the monthly gift bag. You received top-grade mountain and river painting x 1, ruin jade x 100, true understanding of spells x 10, cultivation points x 3000

nAfter conveniently using the ruin jade to expand the seal space, he looked at the remaining items in the gift pack and was momentarily stumped.

nHe had a total of 20 true understanding of spells scrolls. It was not enough to get the Heaven-defying Divine Sky Palm to the foundation establishment stage. However, he could learn the 11th move of Tiangang Sword Finger.

nAs for the cultivation points, he only had a few thousand. If he wanted to advance the five elements foundation establishment technique to the perfection stage, he would need 10,000 points. Su Yi put this aside for now.

nThe most important thing was that top-grade mountain and river painting. He could not use it lightly. Perhaps it could be used in the ruins?

nHe thought to himself and also put the top-grade mountain and river painting into the seal space.

nThen, he did not plan to cultivate. He quietly laid back on his bed and slowly closed his eyes.

nIt had been a long time since he had rested like this.
