This mountain was called Earth Planting Peak, retaining its previous name, but compared to the Earth Planting Peak of the former Tianbao Sect, this mountain was far inferior.
After all, the Earth Planting Peak of the Heavenly Treasure Sect once boasted high-grade spirit fields, mid-grade Yuan-grade spirit fields, and low-grade treasure-grade spirit fields, making it a paradise for cultivating spiritual herbs.
But this Earth Plant Peak in front of them had nothing at all! The Spirit Fields were still in the process of being developed and upgraded.
Upon arriving at his disciple's residence, Miao Yunyi pointed to the most luxurious bamboo house courtyard and said, "My dear disciple, that was specially reserved for you by your master."
Afterwards, Miao Yunyi told Xu Ning about the current situation of Dizhi Peak.
Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Sister, and Fifth Senior Sister had all arrived, along with some of the miscellaneous servants from Xuanzhi Peak.
Even Liu Yong, the former manager of Xuanzhi Peak, had come.
Finally, Miao Yunyi said, "Well, my dear disciple, may I borrow your alchemy equipment for a moment?"
Xu Ning couldn't help but mutter, "Master really doesn't miss me, he just misses my alchemy equipment!"
Miao Yunyi: "Stop talking nonsense and take it out now!"
Xu Ning was speechless, and with a wave of his hand, he took out the lantern, the iron pot, and the desk.
Miao Yunyi's eyes lit up when he saw this. He waved his hand and put it away, then leaped away and flew off.
Xu Ning sighed and walked towards the bamboo house courtyard.
It must be said that this courtyard was truly exquisite. In the center of the courtyard, there was a clear spring that kept gushing water.
The water flowed into a small stream that meandered through the courtyard, with several small bridges spanning it, creating a very picturesque scene.
Xu Ning threw off his shoes and walked barefoot in the yard, in a very good mood.
He hadn't felt this relaxed in a very long time. It was definitely better to be near a cheap master!
Old Deng must have put a lot of thought into preparing this yard for him!
Just as Xu Ning had thought, Miao Yunyi began building this courtyard as soon as he arrived at Dizhi Peak.
Putting everything else aside, his top-grade Qi Condensation Pill was given to him by Xu Ning, and this favor could not be described as greater than the heavens.
He wouldn't say anything on the surface, but you could see how much effort Miao Yunyi put into it from all the details.
Arriving at the bamboo house, Xu Ning asked, "Will this thatched hut feel appropriate?"
Thatched Hut: "That's not nonsense, I'm a legendary spirit artifact!"
Xu Ning nodded and took out the thatched hut, placing it on top of the bamboo house.
Although it wasn't visible on the surface, once you opened it up and went inside, you'd find a completely different world.
After settling in, Xu Ning sat on the bridge in the courtyard and began to ponder.
The formation had already been upgraded to legendary level. Xu Ning didn't currently have the ability to upgrade to divine level, so he could consider upgrading other formations now.
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Furthermore, they needed to continue to increase the variety of items sold by Tianji Pavilion in order to increase revenue and level up quickly.
Ugh! There were so many things to do; just thinking about it gave Xu Ning a headache.
By the way, he also needed to start refining the Spirit Gathering Array.
Back in the hut, Xu Ning checked the medicinal herbs in the flowerpots.
Now that his alchemy skills had reached the first-level master level, he should produce more top-grade pills to sell.
Currently, Xu Ning cultivated complete sets of spiritual herbs, including materials for Qi Gathering Pills, Jade Blood Pills, Fire Spirit Pills, and Foundation Establishment Pills.
Xu Ning had already replenished the Qi-Nourishing Flowers that were missing from the Foundation Establishment Pill, but he hadn't put them up for sale at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.
The reason for not selling them was to control the quantity of high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills. As long as they didn't sell Qi Cultivation Flowers, the rarity of high-grade Qi Cultivation Flowers could completely control the overall quantity of high-grade Foundation Establishment Pills.
To date, top-grade Qi-cultivating flowers had been sold for a sky-high price of over 100,000 spirit stones, yet they were still very difficult to obtain.
The reason for this control was that Xu Ning didn't want every Foundation Establishment cultivator to be of superior quality or higher in the future; that would be tantamount to aiding the enemy! If they encountered him later, they wouldn't show him any mercy!
Taking out the excess spiritual excrement he had accumulated, Xu Ning used it to upgrade all the spiritual herbs except for the Foundation Establishment Pill to the highest grade.
Looking at the top-grade spiritual herbs before him, Xu Ning couldn't help but ask, "Wait, if I use these top-grade spiritual herbs to refine pills, could I refine a legendary spiritual herb?"
Thatched Hut: "I ask you, are you the only master-level alchemist in this cultivation world? Why have you never heard of legendary spirit-grade pills?"
Xu Ning: "Maybe they just couldn't get their hands on a set of top-grade spiritual herbs!"
Thatched Hut: "That's what you think. Some ancient cultivation families have top-grade spiritual fields. Growing top-grade spiritual herbs is as easy as eating and drinking. How could they not be able to gather enough materials for a set of pills!"
Xu Ning: "So you mean you can't refine it?"
Thatched Hut: "Let me put it this way! Legendary quality, even divine quality, has completely surpassed the normal range. Master-level items simply cannot break the rules to reach this level."
"Of course, I'm talking about now. In ancient times, legends were quite common!"
Xu Ning: "In that case, if I use a set of legendary-quality spiritual herbs to refine pills, will my pill refining skills reach the legendary level?"
Thatched Hut: "What are you doing with these nesting dolls?"
Xu Ning: "Just tell me if it's okay or not?"
Thatched Hut: "Yes, but it's very difficult to achieve. It requires constant practice, so it needs a lot of legendary quality elixirs."
After listening, Xu Ning pondered the matter; it was indeed a bit difficult.
After all, each kind of spiritual medicine must undergo tribulation to reach the legendary level. A set of pills and spiritual medicines contained eight or nine kinds of spiritual medicines, which meant that to collect a complete set, one must undergo tribulation eight times!
"Damn, if I want to become a legendary alchemist, wouldn't I need to undergo thousands or even tens of thousands of tribulations?"
Thatched Hut: "Theoretically, that's true! But the benefits are also quite considerable. A legendary-level alchemist can upgrade your pills by two grades!"
"At that time, you will also be able to use top-grade spiritual herbs to refine legendary quality pills."
Xu Ning exclaimed in surprise: "Two grades! That's an incredible windfall! You can refine high-grade pills using low-grade spiritual herbs!"
Thatched Hut: "That's right, and those above the legendary level share commonalities. If you reach the second-tier master level, you can advance to the second-tier legendary level!"
Xu Ning: "That's definitely a good option!"
As for the lightning tribulation, he wasn't afraid of it anyway, so he didn't care how many times it happened!
After thinking it over, Xu Ning sat on the futon and began to cultivate.
Two days later, Miao Yunyi returned the alchemy equipment, and Xu Ning began refining top-grade pills.
Just as the refining was almost complete, a reply came from Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu and Zhou Lin had successfully established a top-quality foundation.
The strength of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion had thus been greatly enhanced, and at least they no longer needed to be as timid and hesitant as before.
Afterwards, Xu Ning packed up the refined top-grade Qi Gathering Pill, Jade Blood Pill, and Fire Spirit Pill and sent them to Luo Xiu, instructing him to divide them into two portions and sell them in the two Tianji Pavilion branches.
At this time, in the second branch of Tianji Pavilion.
Gu Mu, who was carrying three coffins on his back, was gulping down wine.
Years had passed, and Gu Mu was no longer the child he once was. His messy hair and beard made him look like a middle-aged beggar.
However, his melancholy eyes seemed to be telling a story unique to him.
