Mi Xiaojing received materials for refining 20 Clear Tranquility Pills, including processed herbs, two purified liquids, and a specially treated spirit fruit. This is the complete set of materials for one Clear Tranquility Pill.

As an apprentice pill master, he received his first storage bag. In the Heart Sect, only those who have reached the Foundation Building Stage will receive a storage bag from the sect. Although it is not a particularly valuable treasure, it is always in high demand.

Due to Mi Xiaojing’s status as a pill master, he naturally received a storage bag from the sect. This was the first time he had ever seen one, and he was fascinated by it. The bag, which was only the size of a palm, could hold a lot of things, including the 20 sets of alchemy materials.

However, Mi Xiaojing was very poor. In addition to these materials, he only received five low-grade spirit stones and some new clothes. He was only able to fill the bag halfway, but he was still very happy.

The pill room was small, and it was not the same one he had used last time. There were ten primary pill rooms like this one, and if he didn’t occupy one in advance, he would have to wait a long time. Fortunately, they were ordered to refine pills, so they forcefully occupied four rooms. Mi Xiaojing also got one of the better pill rooms.

This time, Mi Xiaojing planned to familiarize himself with alchemy. The first three furnaces of pills were made with some luck and the experience he had inherited. The second time he refined pills, Mi Xiaojing was clearly much more relaxed. Wang Weijun didn’t watch him this time, and he was very pleased. Obviously, after this alchemy, Mi Xiaojing’s attitude towards him had improved a lot. He wouldn’t miss this opportunity to gain Mi Xiaojing’s trust at any cost.

Following the inherited memory, Mi Xiaojing used Wang Weijun’s unique alchemy technique to refine pills for the second time. If Chen Shouyi were here, he would have realized that Mi Xiaojing’s alchemy skills were much more advanced than his own.

The first furnace produced four middle-grade pills, the second furnace produced nine low-grade pills, and the third furnace, using a higher-level technique, produced a top-grade Clear Tranquility Pill.

Mi Xiaojing used the 20 sets of herbs in just five days, refining pills four times a day on average and spending the rest of his time cultivating. Every morning, he also absorbed some Qianyang Purple Qi.

After five days, Mi Xiaojing left the pill room. Of course, it was not yet time to turn in the task, so he went straight back to his small courtyard.

“Xiaoyin, take me to the sect’s market.”

“What are you going to do there?” Mu Xiaoyin asked.

“I’m going to refine pills. I need to get some materials. I have some spirit stones to exchange for them,” Mi Xiaojing said with a smile.Mu Xiaoyin became excited and said, “I want to go too. I’ve been bored staying in the courtyard these days.” Luo Bo came over and held Mi Xiaojing’s hand, saying, “Xiao Mi gege, I want to go too…”

Mi Xiaojing nodded and said, “Alright, let’s go together.”

It wasn’t easy to go to the market in the Sword Heart Sect. It would take half a day to walk there. Of course, if they flew, it would be much faster. However, unless they had certain flying treasures, Qi refining cultivators couldn’t fly and could only walk honestly.

Fortunately, the three of them were all practicing and had excellent physical conditions. They were much faster than ordinary people. If ordinary people walked, it would take at least a day and a half or even two days to get there.

The next morning, Mi Xiaojing and the others absorbed the Qianyang purple energy on the cliff, tidied up a bit, and set off in high spirits. After all, they were all children, and it was rare for them to go out. They were all very excited.

Qingmu Peak was one of the nine peaks in the core of the Sword Heart Sect, so Mi Xiaojing and the others had to go down the mountain before they could get to the market. Qingmu Peak was over 8,000 meters high, and the top was covered with white snow. Apart from the mountain protection array, no one lived there.

Mi Xiaojing’s courtyard was located halfway down the mountain. It would take a long time just to walk to the foot of the mountain. They hardly saw anyone along the way. The winding path down the mountain twisted and turned like it had no end, winding through the dense forest.

Mu Xiaoyin occasionally pointed out, “Little junior brother, this is the way to Yuanyang Peak.”

“That’s the way to Liuyun Peak! That’s where the symbol printing hall for refining talismans is located. Most of the disciples there are female… hehe.”

“Look at that mountain peak. Doesn’t it look like a long sword piercing the sky? Hehe, that’s Wenjian Peak, the liveliest place. Many disciples have to go there to complete their sect missions and receive rewards.”

“Do we have to go there to receive missions too?”

Mi Xiaojing had never heard of sect missions before.

Mu Xiaoyin smiled and said, “We… we don’t have sect missions. We just have to accept missions from the Grass-Benevolence Hall. Of course, if you don’t know how to refine alchemy or cultivate spirit herbs, then you have to accept missions.”

“What happens if we don’t accept missions?”

“You’ll be punished by the law enforcement hall. You’ll be forced to complete missions. If you can’t complete them, it’ll be… hehe, you’ll regret it.”

“What happens if I accept the mission but don’t do it?”

Mu Xiaoyin looked at him strangely, then suddenly realized and said, “The consequences will be even more serious. Your cultivation level will be stripped away, and you’ll become an ordinary person again. And even worse, you might even be executed!” Mi Xiaojing was frightened. He understood that to have his cultivation level stripped away meant to lose his abilities as a cultivator and become an ordinary person again. It was a terrible consequence.Mu Xiaoyin smiled and said, “Junior brother, this has nothing to do with you. You accepted the alchemy task, as long as you complete it, you don’t need to go to the Sword Peak to accept tasks.”

The three of them moved very fast and arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than two hours.

A turbulent stream flowed by, with the sound of water rushing. Mi Xiaojing said, “Let’s take a break.” He went to the side of the stream, the water was extremely clear, and he could see the stones and small fish under the water. He washed his face with the water and took a sip. The water was sweet and cool, almost as good as the water from a spiritual spring.

Mu Xiaoyin and Luo Bo also washed up. Mu Xiaoyin then said, “Follow the stream upstream, the road is over there. Then we have to cross two mountain ridges to reach the sect’s market.”

“That’s so far away!”

Mu Xiaoyin said, “It’s not that far. The market is a place where everyone goes. In some places, many senior brothers and sisters have never been there. Isn’t our Heart Sect big enough?”

“Yes, it’s really big…”

Mi Xiaojing also felt emotional. A sect could occupy such a large area. Thinking of the Western Expansion Sect, he felt even more emotional. When he was in the Western Expansion Sect, he also thought it was big, but compared to the Heart Sect, it was like a small shrimp and a big fish.
