Chapter IX Three years and four months

　　The stall owner was in his thirties or forties, dressed in gray and white Taoist robes, his cultivation was not obvious, and he looked like a secular peddler. But Lu Qingfeng did not need to guess to know that this person can take out so many talismans to sell, cultivation than he did not know how many chips higher. 　　Perhaps he had already reached the True Qi Realm. 　　"Late Lu Qingfeng, I've met senior, can't I stay here?" Lu Qingfeng clasped his fists at this stall owner and asked out loud. 　　He really wasn't clear about the various rules of the bazaar as he had a half understanding of them. 　　"Senior doesn't dare to be. Poverty Taoist Huang Luo, vainly elder young Taoist friend by a few years, if you don't mind, just call out Old Brother Huang." 　　Seeing Lu Qingfeng's kind face, Daoist Huang Luo shook his head and said, "In the bazaar, except for the various stalls that must be rented, other places are free to stay. It's just that slacking off is the most avoided at the beginning of cultivation, the poor Taoist viewed young Taoist friend wandering around the bazaar for half a day, and then dawdling here for a long time, so I just can't bear to do it." 　　This was indeed one of the reasons. 　　Of course. 　　There was another point. His stall was not big, Lu Qingfeng sitting down like this and not moving was equivalent to taking up a small half of his not so big stall, which also had an impact on his business. 　　"Thanks for reminding Old Brother Huang." 　　Lu Qingfeng understood and immediately moved back. 　　"No harm done, I only hope that young Taoist friend will not wait until there is no hope for cultivation, and then there will be empty sorrow." Huang Luo saw that Lu Qingfeng only seemed to have taken in half of his words, and could not help but shake his head. 　　He only thought that the rotten mud couldn't hold the wall. 　　Immediately, he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, unwilling to say anything more to Lu Qingfeng. 　　"Farewell senior." 　　Lu Qingfeng still wanted to exchange a few words with this first senior who took the initiative to talk to him, but he didn't expect to be politely rejected before he even started. With a sarcastic smile, he immediately cupped his fists and left. 　　...... 　　The bustling bazaar was in stark contrast to the silent Greenstone Talisman. 　　In the green stone talisman, there was only a space of a few feet in circumference. 　　The workbench for handling medicinal herbs stood in the very center, and the surrounding area was empty, with no tables, chairs, beds or couches. 　　Lu Qingfeng cultivated and rested here every day after handling herbs. 　　Ordinary players couldn't endure the silence in the green stone talisman and found it depressing. Lu Qingfeng had stayed in the Blackwood Wall for sixteen years and was used to it instead. 　　Hundred times time difference. 　　A month had passed in the game, less than four hours had passed in reality, Lu Qingfeng exited the game, ate dinner with Lu Qingyu, and was pestered by her to teach him words for a while before re-entering the game. 　　This time, he was prepared: before going offline, he had taken a grain of grain-repelling elixir and grasped the time to go offline. When he went online again, exactly six days had passed in the game. 　　"Continue cultivating!" 　　Cultivate the Greenwood Yan Yang Scripture! 　　Study the Pill Refining Analysis! 　　Handle a serving of basic medicinal herbs! 　　...... 　　Time passed without realizing it. 　　In a flash. 　　Another two months had passed. 　　Since strengthening the Pill Refining Analysis, Lu Qingfeng's speed in handling herbs was even faster. 　　Originally, he was able to exchange one Yellow Dragon Pill in about eight days, which was already a lot better than an ordinary novice player. After one reinforcement, it was even more so that he was able to exchange one Yellow Dragon Dan in about four days. 　　Lu Qingfeng continued his efforts. 　　After cultivating his level back to level 3, he once again strengthened the Pill Refining Analysis. 　　As the saying goes, sharpening the sword is not a good idea. Lu Qingfeng was currently relying on the Pill Refining Analysis to complete the tasks of processing herbs in the Luo Sheng Alchemy Workshop, thus exchanging it for the Yellow Dragon Pill cultivation. 　　Strengthening the Pill Refining Analysis was even more cost-effective to him than strengthening the Greenwood Yan Yang Scripture. 　　After the second reinforcement, Lu Qingfeng's daily number of medicinal herbs handled reached two hundred, and his pass rate stabilized at more than ninety-five percent. 　　On average, he was able to receive a reward of 30 basic medicinal herbs per day, which could be exchanged for a Yellow Dragon Pill and a Grain Resisting Pill in two days! 　　"Two reinforcements have almost fully tapped the potential of the Pill Refining Analysis. Even if I continue to strengthen it, the speed and pass rate of processing herbs won't improve much." 　　"I wonder what will happen after [enhancing] the Pill Refining Analysis." 　　For a cultivation technique such as the Greenwood Yan Yang Sutra, the number of layers would be increased after upgrading, meaning that the subsequent techniques would be extended on top of the original technique. 　　For the Pill Refining Explanation, it was really unknown what kind of changes would occur. 　　"More herbs appear?" 　　"Or is it similar to Reinforcement?" 　　Lu Qingfeng glanced at the experience slot and realized that without realizing it, the level 3 experience value had been stored up again. 　　"Raise the Pill Refining Analysis once, and then strengthen the Qing Mu Yan Yang Scripture once!" 　　From level 1 (0/5), to level 3 (15/15), it was exactly 30 experience points. 　　[In "Pillmaking Analysis" Derivation, Strengthening: 0/40; Enhancement: 0/10; Fusion: 0/10] 　　"Enhancement: 10/10." 　　[Secret: Pillmaking Analysis] 　　[Grade: Elementary] 　　[Diffraction: Secondary Strengthening, One Enhancement] 　　[Note: A basic alchemy manual, recording the handling of forty-nine herbs; Attached: Dan Dan formula for Pai Gu Dan] 　　"Grain Resisting Dan Formula?!" 　　Lu Qingfeng checked the upgraded Pill Refining Explanation and realized that on top of the original foundation, neither more herbs nor enhancements appeared, there was only an additional Grain Purging Dan Formula. 　　"Upgrading the Pill Refining Explanation will result in a Dan formula?" 　　Come to think of it, the content of the Pill Refining Analysis was forty-nine basic medicinal herbs including their treatments. This was originally the foundation for refining pills. And after the Derivation Enhancement, wasn't it exactly on this foundation that the subsequent Derivation was carried out, getting the Dan Formula when it was true was more than normal. 　　This saved Lu Qingfeng the trouble of searching around for the Dan formula. Even if it was a simple formula such as the Grain Rescue Dan, if one wanted to get their hands on it, they would never be able to buy it without a dozen or twenty Yellow Dragon Dan. 　　Now it was just two or three Yellow Dragon Dan, plus some time. 　　It was completely within his range of acceptance. 　　"Since I was able to deduce the Pyrrhic Pill formula, I might also be able to deduce the Yellow Dragon Pill formula!" 　　Lu Qingfeng's heart stirred, and he immediately gave up on strengthening the Greenwood Yan Yang Scripture, and turned to raise the Pill Refining Analysis once again. 　　The level was jacked up to the bottom and went back to level 1, but the results of the derivation made Lu Qingfeng elated! 　　[Secret Scripture: Pill Refining Analysis] 　　[Grade: Elementary 　　[Diffraction Method: Secondary Strengthening, Secondary Enhancement] 　　[Note: Basic Alchemy Manual, records the treatment of forty-nine herbs; Attached: Rescue Pill Formula, Yellow Dragon Pill Formula]] 　　"Yellow Dragon Dan Formula!" 　　It was truly a sleepy day that brought a pillow! 　　With this Dan formula, Lu Qingfeng could study the art of alchemy in advance! By that time, he would master the method of refining the Grain Rescuing Pill and the Yellow Dragon Pill, and his cultivation in reality would be able to advance by leaps and bounds! 　　However, counting the time, he had spent a total of three months in the game after he was reincarnated and reborn, a day and a night had already passed in reality, it was almost time to get up. 　　"Go offline first, and start researching again in the evening." 　　The days in reality had to continue. 　　At least until Lu Qingfeng was not yet strong enough to be able to fight or hide from the Returning Truth Sect, he would have to utilize some superficial efforts to cover up a bit. 　　The crops in the fields couldn't be deserted either. According to the current progress of cultivation, he would not be able to accumulate enough power before the food in the house ran out. 　　Without crops, learning to refine the Grain Resisting Pill wouldn't starve him, but not being able to pay the offerings from the Gui Zhen Sect would be troublesome! 　　...... 　　From this day onwards. 　　Lu Qingfeng labored in the morning every day, and in the afternoon, he divided two hours to cultivate the Qingmu Yan Yang Scripture as well as collect herbs and process them. 　　This way, every half an hour or so, he would have to enter the game and take a grain-preventing elixir to maintain his survival. It seems troublesome, but in reality, after keeping track of the time, you can't even delay a breath when entering or leaving the game. 　　It's a pity that without Lu Qingfeng's control, the game character can't automatically run the Qingmu Yan Yang Jing. Otherwise, the efficiency of hanging up and practicing to gain experience could be increased by at least three to five percent! 　　However, even if he was unable to hang up and practice leveling. 　　Lu Qingfeng entered the game every day from six o'clock in the evening until eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, and was able to stay in the game for two months every night. 　　In the blink of an eye, a decade had passed in reality. 　　Three years and four months had passed in the game, and Lu Qingfeng had stayed in the game off and on for two whole years! 　　...... 　　Name: Lu Qingfeng 　　Race: Human 　　Camp: None 　　Title: None 　　Cultivation Level: Houtian Fetal Breath Realm 1st Level 　　Level: 1 (3/5) 　　Internal Breath: 4/4 (Quality: Subtle Grade) 　　Longevity: 19/68 　　Root Bone: 1 　　Merit: Unknown 　　Karma: Unknown 　　Techniques: Huangting Jing, 1st level (Introductory) [Characteristics: Diffraction (1st level); Unification of All Laws (1st level); Karma Elimination (1st level)]; Qingmu Yan Yang Jing, 2nd level (Perfection) [Diffusion possible]; 　　Techniques: Fire Bomb Technique (1st level); Heavenly Eye Technique (1st level); Luo Yan Steps (1st level); Burning Heart Palm (1st level) 　　Avatar: None 　　Equipment: None 　　Alchemy: "Alchemy Beginner's Explanation" (small completion) [derivable]; "Alchemy Explanation" (small completion) [derivable 　　West City Bazaar. 　　Lu Qingfeng sat behind a party of stalls and pulled up the attribute panel. 　　After more than three years in the game, although Lu Qingfeng's level remained stagnant, the 'luxurious' attribute panel was still pleasing to the eyes! 　　[Technique: Qing Mu Yan Yang Scripture (Remnant)] 　　[Grade: Subtle grade, nine layers] 　　[Technique: Greenwood Inferno Sun Scripture (Defective) 　　Cultivation Requirements: None 　　[Technique Characteristics: Yan Yang Power] [Description. 　　【Description: Fusion of Qingmu Kung Fu and Yan Yang Jing】 【Description: Fusion of Qingmu Kung Fu and Yan Yang Jing 　　...... 　　[Secret: Analysis of Alchemy] [Secret: Analysis of Alchemy 　　[Grade: Primary] [Grade: Primary 　　[Diffractive Method: Secondary Strengthening, Third Enhancement] 　　[Notes: A basic alchemy manual, recording the treatment of forty-nine kinds of herbs; Attached: Dan formula of Pai Gu Dan, Dan formula of Huang Long Dan, and Dan formula of Qing Ling San] 　　...... 　　[Technique: Fire Bomb Technique 　　[Grade: Low-ranked, four levels] 　　[Technique: Secondary Enhancement] [Description: Contains terrifying heat. 　　【Description: Containing terrifyingly high temperatures, indestructible and incombustible] [Description: Containing terrifyingly high temperatures, indestructible and incombustible]. 　　...... 　　[Technique: Celestial Eyes] [Technique: Celestial Eyes] [Technique: Celestial Eyes 　　[Grade: Low rank, two layers] [Description: Contains terrifying heat. 　　[Technique: Secondary Enhancement] [Description: Can observe no more than one's own eyes. 　　【Description: Can observe the cultivation of practitioners not exceeding one realm/step of one's own cultivation level, and can mentally shock ordinary people, causing them to panic]] 　　...... 　　[Technique: Luo Yan Bu 　　[Grade: Low rank, total of two layers] 　　[Technique: Secondary Strengthening] 　　【Description: Lightweight skill, consumes physical strength and is extremely fast】. 　　...... 　　Technique: Burning Heart Palm] [Technique: Burning Heart Palm] [Technique: Burning Heart Palm 　　[Grade: Low rank, two layers] [Diffraction: Second reinforcement 　　[Technique: Second Enhancement] [Description: Palm Technique, contains two layers 　　【Description: Palm Technique, contains the most Yang palm power, can open the stone, a palm burns the heart】) 　　Note: Techniques are categorized into low, medium, high, and super levels.
