Xu Yi took the pill and glanced at it. It was a low-grade Qi Gathering Pill.
System Enhancement (Optional):
1.One hundred low-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
2.Ten middle-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
3.One high-grade Qi Gathering Pill.
Xu Yi took the pills and said, "Thank you," then walked into the city. The guard captain hesitated for a moment but did not stop him.
Entering and leaving the city usually required paying an entrance tax, but Xu Yi was a cultivator, and he had just killed a beast, his body radiating the aura of slaughter. The guards naturally did not want to risk trouble.
Inside the city, Xu Yi walked around and found the largest pharmacy. He took out the tiger demon's gallbladder.
Although the gallbladder of a first-tier tiger demon wasn't the most valuable item from a first-tier Demon Beast, exchanging it for three low-grade Qi Gathering Pills was more than sufficient.
This clearly showed the immense value difference between Demon Beasts and wild beasts; the disparity was like the difference between the sky and the earth.
Xu Yi exchanged the gallbladder for three low-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
System Enhancement (Optional):
1.Three hundred low-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
2.Thirty middle-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
3.Three high-grade Qi Gathering Pills.
Xu Yi continued to walk through the city and encountered two young rich heirs who were provoking a street fight. Xu Yi stepped in, taking advantage of the chaos to steal two coin purses.
Next, he found a local brothel and rented a courtyard, then began his closed-door cultivation practice.
The techniques he was using were things he had learned in school. Though it was his first time applying them, he found it wasn't difficult at all. However, these actions were generally done by those who intended to develop long-term in the Minor Worlds, while most students just entering the Reincarnation Tower would never think of putting so much effort into it.
Xu Yi settled into the courtyard and chose to consume low-grade Qi Gathering Pills. He swallowed one pill after another and began cultivating the Elementary Five Elements Reincarnation Cultivation Technique.
Even though they were low-grade Qi Gathering Pills, the energy contained within them was far more potent than Vitality Pills.
Spiritual Power cultivation techniques can absorb energy from the outside world, but with sufficiently strong pills and elixirs, it's also possible to convert energy from within the body.
However, refining these pills and elixirs is no easy task. Without sufficient financial resources, it's impossible to support it.
After seven days, the familiar voice sounded again, and Xu Yi immediately chose to stay there.
Day after day, Xu Yi stayed in the courtyard for nearly two years.
Whenever he noticed a shortage of pills and elixirs, he would go into the mountains to hunt. However, after his first experience, Xu Yi no longer returned with an entire beast. He hunted multiple wild beasts, taking only the useful materials that had been upgraded.
This approach was smaller in scale and less conspicuous, and allowed him to exchange for more pills and elixirs.
At this point, there was only one month left before his return, and his spiritual power had already reached its full capacity.
In over 600 days, he averaged around ten low-grade Qi Gathering Pills a day. By now, he had consumed over 6,000 pills.
Although they were low-grade, the energy they contained was no less than that of higher-level pills. The spiritual power he had accumulated inside his body was extraordinarily strong, far beyond what a Qi Refining First Layer cultivator could normally reach.
However, at this point, Xu Yi could no longer break through.
His meridians had become clogged with Pill Poison, and the feeling of stagnation in his spiritual power was overwhelming.
If a normal cultivator's meridians flowed with pure water, Xu Yi's meridians flowed with mud. The more energy he accumulated, the thicker the mud became. Trying to break through... that was a pipe dream.
This was the consequence of consuming over 6,000 low-grade pills.
He could no longer continue cultivating, and this body would remain stuck at Qi Refining First Layer forever, unable to advance further.
If a normal cultivator had reached this point, they might have given up hope of survival.
But Xu Yi didn't care. He continued to practice the Elementary Five Elements Reincarnation Cultivation Technique every day, even though the movement of his true Qi had become extremely sluggish. He persisted without hesitation.
While cultivating, Xu Yi also devoted more time to studying the Giant Spirit Palm.
This was an Earth-Rank Cultivation Technique, and it was extremely difficult to master. Xu Yi had spent over a year studying it, and he had barely grasped a little bit.
He raised his palm to his chest and slowly slapped forward.
His palm swelled slightly, seeming a bit larger than before.
"Whoosh..."
The wind from his palm howled, and there was a faint sharpness to it.
Xu Yi nodded in satisfaction. Earth-Rank Cultivation Techniques were truly extraordinary. Even though he had only grasped a small fragment, and his spiritual power was still sluggish, the power of this strike, even if it was only one-tenth of its potential, was still not inferior to the performances of those rocket-class students.
Though he wasn't in the rocket class, Xu Yi had seen those little brats perform many times before.
In the past, he had envied them so much that his eyes would almost pop out, but now Xu Yi believed that if he unleashed this palm strike, they would have to take it seriously.
For the next month, Xu Yi stayed inside, not stepping out, continuing his training with the Giant Spirit Palm.
