“What a handsome movement technique!”
Jian Liang’s eyes lit up slightly. He was about to continue speaking when he realized that Chen Fei had already pealed out of the alley. Jian Liang smiled coldly. Just as he was about to chase after him to kill him, a sound suddenly came from the courtyard.
Jian Liang frowned slightly. Hesitating for a moment, he turned around and rushed back into the courtyard.
A moment later, Jian Liang stood on the courtyard wall again. The cuffs of his clothes were stained with blood. Jian Liang looked around and could no longer see Chen Fei.
Jian Liang was expressionless. He felt that he had seen that person somewhere before. However, if he had really seen that kind of movement technique, it would probably have left a deep impression, and he wouldn’t have forgotten it.
Jian Liang frowned slightly. As the night wind blew, the person had already disappeared from sight.
A mile away, Chen Fei hid in a corner. After confirming that he hadn’t been followed, he heaved a sigh of relief.
How unlucky he must be to actually encounter these mountain bandits in the city. The family just now was probably doomed. Facing the mountain bandits, Chen Fei couldn’t even protect himself. It was pletely impossible to save them.
“I’ve gotten a little too smug,” Chen Fei muttered to himself.
If it weren’t for the fact that his movement technique had reached Great pletion and had bee almost instinctive, It would’ve been impossible for him to dodge Jian Liang’s blade.
“My cultivation is still too low.” Chen Fei raised his head and looked in the direction of the courtyard. “I still have to continue to stack my movement techniques. The two didn’t conflict and even plemented each other! ”
He did not go to the black market immediately. It would not be a peaceful night, and Chen Fei planned to go to the stall owner the next night instead.
The next morning, Chen Fei came to the clinic and heard a noise.
“What happened?” Chen Fei was puzzled.
“Last night, a few large families in the county were wiped out. I heard that there was so much blood it painted the ground red.” Liu Jun came in front of Chen Fei and said in a low voice.
Chen Fei frowned slightly. Last night, he thought that the Mountain Bandits had only chosen one family. Now, it seemed that they were doing a sweep through the county.
“The county government is furious and has issued a huge reward. Anyone who provides useful information will be rewarded with a hundred taels.”
Liu Jun continued, his eyes filled with eagerness. After all, a hundred taels of silver was undoubtedly a huge sum of money for people like them. The real question was whether they would be able to see such a large amount of money in their lifetime.
Chen Fei was also a little tempted, but he immediately suppressed it.
Chen Fei couldn’t afford to offend the mountain bandits. Moreover, the county government only said that they would give him 100 taels. When the time came, nobody knew how much they would actually give. It was even more likely that they would bring danger to him.
However, simply brushing it off seemed to be letting the mountain bandits off too easily.
Moreover, if no one suppressed the mountain bandits, they would probably e to the county to mit crimes again after a period of time. By then, Chen Fei might still find himself in another dangerous situation again.
After encouraging Liu Jun a few times, Chen Fei went to the pill room and began to refine the Vitality pill.
After refining a few more batches today, Chen Fei would be able to raise the experience points of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill to the master level. That way, he could officially start refining the Qi Rejuvenation Pill.
Fifteen minutes later, Chen Fei opened the furnace door, and a total of five Vitality Pills were lying inside. On the interface, Qi Rejuvenation Pill experience points reflected a 5.
The experience points were calculated according to the number of Vitality Pills produced. If not for this, Chen Fei would not have been able to increase the experience points of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill to its current level in a few days.
After putting the Vitality Pills into the medicine bottle and cleaning the pill furnace, Chen Fei started to focus all his energies on refining the second batch of Vitality Pills.
The third batch, fourth, and fifth.
After refining five batches of Vitality Pills, Chen Fei could not help but let out a breath of turbid air.
Even though he had cultivated the Vitality Pill technique to Great pletion, it was still a little taxing to continuously refine pills like this. Chen Fei looked at the interface and smiled.
[Alchemy: Qi Rejuvenation Pill (Master 2/1000)]
“I can refine the Qi Rejuvenation Pill now!”
As the medical hall valued Chen Fei’s alchemy skills and also to show that they supported Chen Fei’s pill refining, the medical hall specially provided a set of Qi Rejuvenation Pill medicinal ingredients for free to Chen Fei every day.
At present, there were already five portions of Qi Rejuvenation Pill ingredients piled up by Chen Fei’s feet. If everything went smoothly, he would be able to obtain at least a few Qi Rejuvenation Pills later.
Chen Fei took a moment to adjust his breath. Then, he carefully cleaned the pill furnace and placed the medicinal ingredients into the pill furnace according to the pill formula.
He was pletely focused. After all, this was his first time refining the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. Chen Fei treated every change in the medicinal properties in the pill furnace seriously and made adjustments.
Fifteen minutes later, a medicinal fragrance began to pervade the pill room, instantly overshadowing the remaining fragrance of the Vitality Pill.
After yet another fifteen minutes, Chen Fei opened the lid of the furnace. There was a pill lying quietly inside the furnace.
Chen Fei carefully took it out and carefully observed the Qi Rejuvenation Pill.
The outer layer of the pill was not smooth enough. If one looked carefully, there were still some fine medicinal ingredients that had not been pletely fused. All these would affect the final effect of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill. If he were to sell it, he would have to do so at a lower price.
However, these flaws could not stop a smile from appearing on Chen Fei’s face.
Even if the medicinal effect was slightly inferior, it was still much better than the Vitality Pill. If Chen Fei could take a Qi Rejuvenation Pill every day, the time needed to break through to the Body Tempering Realm would be drastically shortened.
The appearance of the mountain bandits had already made Chen Fei feel increasingly insecure.
Opening his mouth and swallowing the Qi Rejuvenation Pill, Chen Fei sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate the Wind Suspending Breathing Technique. Chen Fei’s expression quickly became as calm as a mirror lake, pletely immersed in his cultivation state.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Fei woke up. The fatigue from refining the medicinal pill earlier had long been swept away, and his entire person appeared to be in high spirits. Looking at the interface, Chen Fei could not help but smile.
[Realm: Skin Toughening (593/1000)]
The Qi Rejuvenation Pill had increased his cultivation by 15 points. Originally, with the Wind Suspending Breathing Technique and the Vitality Pill, Chen Fei still needed nearly a month to break through to the Body Tempering Realm.
Now that he had switched to the Qi Rejuvenation Pill, he only needed half a month to do so, although he could only take one a day.
Perhaps in the eyes of other martial artists, this reduction in time did not have much meaning. After all, the price of the Qi Rejuvenation Pill was dozens of times higher than the Vitality Pill.
One Qi Rejuvenation Pill was worth ten taels of silver. No bargaining!
The ten taels of silver only shaved the time needed by half a month, and it was too extravagant!
However, as an alchemist, Chen Fei understood that the value of the medicinal herbs used by the two was at most double. The rest was pletely the value of the technique.
And now, Chen Fei had mastered this skill.
“If I want to earn enough money quickly, I’ll have to sell some Qi Rejuvenation Pills in the black market.”
Chen Fei muttered in his heart, but his hand movements did not stop, continuing to refine the Qi Rejuvenation Pill.
As night fell, the county government was brightly lit. Suddenly, a stone flew in and hit the wall, making a muffled sound.
The bailiffs jumped into action when they heard the sound. They found an envelope under a stone. There was a portrait in the envelope. If one looked carefully, it was pletely Jian Liang’s appearance. It was lifelike and quite vivid.
A few miles away, Chen Fei, who had learned how to sketch in his previous life, had already walked into the black market and arrived in front of the bookstall.
An hour later, Chen Fei left the black market. In the bag behind him, he had acquired another ten basic movement technique manuals, one high-level movement technique manual, and one miscellaneous technique.
This miscellaneous technique was a disguise technique. Not only could one change one’s appearance, but according to the secret manual, one could also change one’s body shape when cultivated to a high realm.
