The Qi Nourishing Pill is the best elixir pill for mid-stage Qi Refinement; a medium quality Qi Nourishing Pill can help a cultivator absorb spiritual energy and tame it within an hour.

The Immortal pinched the Meditation Seal with both hands, maintaining special breathing.

Unlike before, this time it quickly captured a strand of spiritual energy, which is one of the effects of the elixir.

Take the Immortal, for example; without taking elixir pills, in an hour, she could only refine three strands of spiritual energy. After taking the Qi Nourishing Pill—not counting the additional spiritual energy from the cave—she could refine nine strands in an hour.

This increased efficiency by three times and reduced the risk of deviation.

Unfortunately, after taking medium-quality elixir pills, it takes two hours to expel the elixir toxins, which will affect the noon practice.

After a simple calculation, with elixir pills, one can only do morning and evening practices, refining eighteen strands of spiritual energy a day.

Without elixir pills, you can refine nine strands of spiritual energy in morning, noon, and evening practices; overall, the cultivation speed is twice as fast.

If they were top-quality elixir pills, without elixir toxins, then it would truly be fast.

The Immortal regretted not choosing elixir pills at the time, but if she did, she wouldn't be able to afford the alchemy cauldron and elixir recipe, and she would have died on the way to Lake Sound Square due to the lack of Golden Light Talismans and Fire Spirit Talismans.

Life has no perfect choices.

The three of them continued cultivating for three days before coming out.

Jiang Xiaoyue reached Qi Refining Fifth Level, Xu Ni reached Qi Refining Fifth Level, and the Immortal reached Qi Refining Sixth Layer, all three had increased by one layer.

"I really want to keep closed cultivation forever." Xu Ni said, still unsatisfied.

"But you'd need endless elixir pills to stay in closed cultivation; without them, you could sit quietly for two days, but then I'd have to check your breathing to see if you were bored to death." Jiang Xiaoyue said sarcastically.

The Immortal laughed.

Xu Ni rolled her eyes, then immediately rallied: "Let's go fish, sell the fish for spirit stones, buy elixir pills, and continue cultivating!"

The three walked out of the cave.

The Water Avoidance Talisman on the wall was already half-wet, this was the sixth one.

"This won't do, the expenses are too high, we'll need to spend money to buy a set of Water Avoidance Array." Jiang Xiaoyue said.

"It's a pity we sold the Golden Net, otherwise fishing would have been much easier and more efficient." Xu Ni reminisced.

She ate fish sucking grass and was the first to dive through the water curtain at the cave's entrance.

"Bang!"

One of Xu Ni's arms exploded.

Bright red blood floated in the water like silk, colliding with the water curtain.

The Immortal and Jiang Xiaoyue were stunned.

Xu Ni was almost dizzy with pain; she had taken fish sucking grass, yet now felt suffocated. It was intense pain, intense fear, fear of death.

She hadn't reacted yet before being captured.

A Sealing Talisman was pasted on her, Weng Liang held her and gazed deeply into her eyes, then turned to look at the two in the water curtain.

"Open the formation." He smiled gracefully.

"Ni'er!!" The Immortal and Jiang Xiaoyue finally snapped out of the sudden change, their clear eyes instantly filled with blood.

"Open the formation." Weng Liang pinched Xu Ni's neck.

Blood flowed from Xu Ni's severed arm like a misshapen arm made of blood vessels; her face was pale and bewildered.

Behind Weng Liang, three late-stage Qi Refinement cultivators smiled brightly, among them a woman, the leader of the previous ambush!

"Weng Dao Friend, have them throw out the storage bags first," the woman smiled poisonously, "Otherwise, if we get in there and they have Fire Spirit Talismans, what then?"

"Chen Dao Friend speaks wisely." Weng Liang smiled, "Xiaoyue, Immortal, throw out the storage bags and magic artifacts if you still want this girl alive."

"Don't worry about me."

Xu Ni had barely finished speaking when another arm was removed by a late-stage Qi Refinement individual, pain making her small body convulse.

"There are still two legs." This person said coldly.

"Wrong," Chen, the female cultivator, laughed, "We can cut her chest and butt, flat as a board; that's what a true human stick is."

"Ni'er!" Jiang Xiaoyue gripped the Golden Light Talisman, held the stick, ready to rush out.

The Immortal grabbed her.

"Xiaoyue, calm down! As long as we don't go out, they won't dare kill Ni'er!"

"We don't dare?" Weng Liang laughed, "How long can you survive in the cave? What will you eat? When you're dead, we can still come in and occupy this place."
