I Became A Cannon Fodder In A Female Protagonist Cultivation Novel

91 What Should I Do if My Childhood Sweetheart’s Daughter Likes Me?

Fang Jinyu received six sets of spirit herbs and two bamboo slips with prescriptions recorded on them. He then went to the alchemy room that Nangong Li had arranged for him.

It was the place where Nangong Li usually refined elixirs. It had a superior-grade spiritual alchemy furnace that contained spiritual fire. Although the spiritual fire wasn’t ranked in the Nine Desolations spiritual fire ranking, it wasn’t bad. Moreover, there was also a large amount of spiritual spring water around. When Fang Jinyu took a closer look, he found that it was very different from the spiritual spring water that he had received in the past. It turned out that it was condensed from the essence of the spiritual spring water.

Fang Jinyu was slightly shocked because it couldn’t be bought with spirit stones.

Otherwise, the millions of spirit stones Fang Jinyu had obtained from the Monastic Immortal City would not only be able to be exchanged for some upper-middle spiritual items.

!!
The real treasures were all in the hands of the aristocratic cultivation families.

Nangong Li wasn’t a disciple of an aristocratic cultivation family because there wasn’t a family with the surname Nangong in the Tianling Sect. Therefore, the reason she could get them was more or less related to the Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster.

Although Fang Jinyu’s purple mystical alchemy furnace was also a superior-grade spiritual alchemy furnace, Nangong Li’s contained spiritual fire while Fang Jinyu’s purple mystical alchemy furnace didn’t. The difference between the two could be said to be huge.

An alchemy furnace that contained spiritual fire could only be obtained by someone who had broken through the Core Formation stage or by chance.

With that, Fang Jinyu kept the two prescriptions.

Since Fang Jinyu had used up his chances of gaining from the system, he could only wait for it to refresh tomorrow. Now, he would naturally not waste such a good alchemy environment.

Fang Jinyu took out the spirit herbs that he had prepared earlier.

Fang Jinyu was going to refine the Core Spirit Elixir!

Fang Jinyu had already sorted out the necessary spirit herbs for the Core Spirit Elixir. Also, he was roughly knowledgeable of his cultivation base, which was ranked at 7 in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Fang Jinyu opened the furnace and started a fire.

Fang Jinyu extinguished the fire when the elixir was formed.

Fang Jinyu lifted the lid of the furnace and peeked inside. He said, “Three elixirs.”

Normally, there should be at least six Core Spirit Elixirs formed in one furnace. However, Fang Jinyu had expected it to happen. After all, the spirit herbs used were lack of spirituality, which made such a situation inevitable.

Therefore, Fang Jinyu began to refine the second batch.

Although Fang Jinyu could only refine a small number of elixirs in every batch, he could refine a few more furnaces!

After five consecutive furnaces, Fang Jinyu cleared all the spirit herbs he had. He had successfully refined a total of 16 Core Spirit Elixirs. It was because he had accidentally refined four elixirs in one of the batches.

It was already the second day.

Fang Jinyu adjusted his breathing, then picked up a prescription and began to study it.

…

On Mount Guiwang.

When the youth that ranked 9 in the Nascent Soul stage saw Nangong Li’s figure, he immediately had a headache.

“Nangong, why are you here?”

“Master, can you call me Ah Li?” In the depths of Nangong Li’s clear eyes, a sense of helplessness and frustration appeared.

“That’s how I address your mother.” The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster glanced at Nangong Li, then sighed helplessly and frustratedly.

His childhood sweetheart’s daughter had taken a fancy to him, which gave him a headache.

“Since you can’t forget my mother, why can’t you accept me?” Nangong Li walked directly to the young man and said, “You said it before. If I don’t rely on your help to break through the Core Formation stage, you will marry me!”

“I said it out of anger. Why did you take it seriously…” The young man, who had dominated the Nine Desolations for hundreds of years, felt a little guilty for some reason.

“Then I’ll spread this news and let the cultivators of Nine Desolations know how the Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster goes back on his words!”

“Let’s talk things out. Don’t be impulsive…” The young man didn’t care about his reputation. After all, once the Heaven-Earth Bell, only a few Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the Nine Desolations would dare to fight with him.

It was because he was already half a step out of the Nascent Soul stage!

He already could kill other Nascent Soul stage cultivators! However, he had yet to fully grasp this power, so he would have to pay a price if he wanted to kill a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

For example, if he wanted to kill a Nascent Soul stage cultivator who still had 500 years of life, he would have to sacrifice 250 years of his own life!

In other words, it’s a Pyrrhic victory.

When other Nascent Soul stage cultivators were terrified when facing him, let alone cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage.

However, if Nangong Li were to do so, there might be other Nascent Soul stage cultivators who wanted to take advantage of her. After all, he had cultivated for so many years and had made many enemies.

A few of them were like him, becoming a Nascent Soul stage cultivator!

Although the other party’s cultivation was far inferior to his, they were both middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.

“Then tell me, why don’t you want to marry me?” Nangong Li’s black eyes widened as she looked at him. Her gaze was filled with confusion. Although she wasn’t as beautiful as a fairy, she was still extremely beautiful. In the entire Tianling Sect, only Su Yier, who was in the Foundation Establishment stage, and Du Maner, who was in the Qi Condensation stage, could beat her in terms of appearance.

However, Nangong Li was a Core Formation stage cultivator!

Just her cultivation base alone was enough to win over the two female disciples.

The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster said faintly, “I’m afraid of marriage…”

“What?”

“I’m serious. Why else do you think I didn’t marry Ah Li?” The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster rolled his eyes at Nangong Li. The “Ah Li” he was referring to was naturally Nangong Li’s mother.

“Ah?”

Nangong Li was at a loss and a little dumbfounded.

Nangong Li thought, “Just because of this?”

“You Nascent Soul stage old man, do you know you are a little weird?”

“Are you calling me an old man in your heart again?” At this moment, the Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster had a sharp look in his eyes as he stared at Nangong Li.

“No, I didn’t! How is that possible?” Nangong Li instantly felt guilty.

Afterward, Nangong Li quickly changed the topic and said, “I’m here to tell you that there’s another Holy Alchemist in the sect. Although he hasn’t officially become one, he has already crossed the threshold and become half of a Holy Alchemist.”

The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster was slightly shocked and hurriedly asked, “Who is it?”

After all, it was easy to tell if he was cultivating alchemy skills. He only needed to smell the spirit herbs on the other party’s body to know, but it was impossible to tell the other party’s alchemy strength with the naked eye.

“Fang Jinyu.”

“It’s him?” The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster couldn’t help but be surprised. He then asked, “Is his elixir-refining talent really that good?”

“I’ve looked up his information. He had just broken through the Foundation Establishment stage five or six years ago. I heard that he didn’t rely on Foundation Establishment Elixirs and understood the key points on his own. Tell me, how can his talent be bad?” Nangong Li rolled his eyes at the Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster.

The Tianling Sect’s Nascent Soul stage Grandmaster laughed and said, “No wonder the only valuable things on him are two spirit tools! Other than cultivating, this kid focuses on refining elixirs! Oh, he should also have a superior-grade spiritual alchemy furnace, but it’s also from the Liudao Sect…” As for Fang Jinyu’s two magic treasures, he naturally wouldn’t mention them to anyone.

Although he didn’t care about those two magic treasures, some Nascent Soul stage cultivators who ranked 1 or 2, believed it was worth it for them to take the risk and offend the Tianling Sect!

Nangong Li suddenly asked, “I heard that the Liudao Sect is gone. What happened?” Since she was in her closed-door cultivation to break through, she wasn’t clear about the situation.

“It’s a long story.”

“Then, make it short.”
