Things with Si Tan’er went smoothly. Once Xu Mu revealed his cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Stage, she agreed immediately.
However-
After a full day and night of toiling, going through various positions, though fluids were trickling out from every hole, there was still no notification from the system.
Looking at the woman passed out beside him, Xu Mu couldn’t help but frown.
Is it due to having too few, or is the quality not good enough?
Si Tan’er’s talent is absolutely not lacking and could probably be a match for Chi Feiyan. Furthermore, she was already at the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation, so it likely wasn’t a quality issue.
Then it must be a numbers issue!
He only had six currently, both known and hidden, which was definitely somewhat lacking in terms of achieving the accomplishment of having three wives and multiple concubines.
Although just thinking about having to keep searching gave Xu Mu a headache.
For a responsible guy like him, taking on a new woman meant providing for her. The pressure was real!
After helping Si Tan’er clean up their mess and waving a couple of purifying talismans over himself, Xu Mu donned a regular robe and exited the second floor.
He brewed himself a pot of Zhu Qing tea and rested a moment in the courtyard before pulling out a jade talisman to send a message to Chi Feiyan.
Master, these are all the spirit stones for this month!
After handing over the spirit stones to Xu Mu, Chi Feiyan bowed before him, a lonesome expression evident on her delicate face beneath the thin fabric of her lovely dress.
Due to the Liyang Sect sending people to investigate, her sale of Foundation Establishment Pills was now constrained. She had only managed to sell less than ten over the month, which was a significant decrease compared to before.
Don’t worry, just take it slow!
Xu Mu wasn’t in a rush. He pocketed the spirit stones and casually reassured her.
In part, he currently still had abundant spirit stones. But he also faced a shortage in raw materials for Foundation Establishment Pills, so even if she sold all hers now, he wouldn’t have new pills to provide.
Otherwise, over the past six months, he could have definitely refined more than a hundred pills.
While the Cang Ming Ocean Territory may be lax in regulating Foundation Establishment Pills, he was clearly not the only one crafting them there. After passing through multiple powerful factions, there wasn’t much left for him to buy.
And what was available, was expensive!
The major factions had cornered the market on these materials to squeeze out Alchemists like him for profit.
“But…
But she wanted the top-grade Foundation Establishment Pill!
Her cultivation, having been quickly boosted by a huge amount of pills, had already reached the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation. Now, Foundation Establishment was within sight, so how could she not be anxious?
Master, why don’t you…
Chi Feiyan’s pitiful gaze fell on Xu Mu. She clutched at her dress nervously, looking like a ripe strawberry just waiting to be picked.
Xu Mu pretended not to see it.
A woman upstairs had just finished a full day’s fun, he was in no mood for any of that now.
After copying down the herbs listed on the four new pill recipes and instructing her to collect as much as possible, Xu Mu sent the despondent Chi Feiyan away.
Heading to the third floor of the tower, Xu Mu took out the Grass Renewal Pill and the Blood Sun Pill, and began to use them to upgrade his Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body.
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body Proficiency; 6399/64.00]!
Xu Mu rested for a bit, took two Blood Sun Pills, and the potency quickly spread through his body.
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +1]!
[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body Perfection; o/1.26w]!
The cohesive energy from the Blood Sun Pills was rapidly absorbed by the system, transforming into new energy to be infused into the lightning.
Crackling sounds filled the space!
Golden thunder surged all over his body, penetrating all of his limbs and every bit of his flesh, every cell.
His muscles and bloodlines underwent continual transformations under the stimulation of the electricity, enhancing to a super-human level. Electrons gathered into tiny runes deep inside his cells.
With a slight flicker of his body, a soft gold coat of electricity materialized itself around him.
With a circumference of ten feet, thunder waves surged around him.
At that moment, Xu Mu looked like Thor descending to the mortal world!
The array that could withstand an attack from the Foundation Establishment Stage was torn apart in an instant.
Xu Mu quickly restrained the thunder, preventing the total destruction of the tower.
As expected of a tier seven pill. Only two were enough!
Feeling the remaining medicinal energy in his body, Xu Mu couldn’t help but exclaim.
He stood up, closed his eyes, and carefully felt the changes in his body.
With the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body reaching the stage of Perfection, the color of his thunder coat turned light gold, its attack and defense power significantly increased.
Xu Mu felt that he could now fight late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators based solely on his Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body. If he also used his newly acquired Thunder Strike Sword, he could most likely overcome anyone in a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Of course, this was only for regular late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. It didn’t include the geniuses of major sects.
Like the Fairy You Lan he met not long ago; she was probably not an ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Apart from the increase in strength, the refinement of lightning increased his lifespan by a small margin, bringing it up to 340 years.
