Upon hearing the two words "beast", Huo Yuhao's temper flared up, and he was about to spit out flames when Qing Xuan intervened.

  "Wang Shimei, are you sure you want to tell Master Zhu about this?" After living here for so many years, Mo Qingchen still didn't know the names of these two people, only knowing that one had the surname Wang and the other had the surname Zhu.

  Wang Xingyu was taken aback when she heard the three words "Wang Shimei", then carefully looked at Mo Qingchen, her eyes suddenly widening: "You... you actually reached the tenth layer of Qi Refining!"

  The female cultivator with the surname Zhu was also stunned, her eyes revealing an unbelievable expression. In less than a year's time, she had risen from the 9th layer of Qi Refining to the 10th layer, this speed was truly too fast.

  Seeing Mo Qingchen's nonchalant appearance, the Wang surname female cultivator's face filled with anger as she said: "Mo Qingchen, don't think that just because your cultivation speed is fast you can be arrogant. There are many geniuses in the Yao Guang Sect, and you're not even worthy of helping them tie their shoes - Ah!"

  All of a sudden, there was a loud slapping sound, and Wang's female repairman covered her left cheek with her hand.

  Mo Qingchen had been practicing Orchid Finger Technique since childhood, so his technique was naturally much faster than that of cultivators in the same realm. In his spare time, he would also practice commonly used techniques, and his speed at casting spells was not ordinary. Under the circumstances where his cultivation exceeded theirs, it was easy for him to treat them as Ruan Lingxiu had treated him back then.

  "Wang Shijie, let's go." The female cultivator with the surname Zhu was indeed perceptive and saw that it wasn't a good idea to fight Mo Qingchen, so she pulled Wang and they headed outside.

  With a loud "slap", the left cheek of the female cultivator with the surname Zhu suddenly swelled up.

  "You, you're really too much!" exclaimed the female cultivator with the surname Zhu, her eyes welling up with tears.

  Mo Qingchen couldn't help but roll her eyes, she had no grudges with them, yet when they saw her that day, they immediately sent a message to Ruan Lingxiu, obviously having received some kind of promise from him. Now they were acting innocent, did they think she was an idiot?

  "You can say I'm arrogant or deceitful, but you know the rules of the Yao Guang Sect. As long as we're not dead or have changed residences due to a rise in cultivation, ordinary disciples' living quarters are fixed. You'll be stuck with me for a long time. Today, go tell Master Shi Shu about it, and I might receive some punishment, but you saw how I endured those physical hardships back then - nothing compares to the joy in my heart. In short, if you leave this door to tattle, from now on, every time I see you, I'll beat you up, unless you don't come back." Mo Qingchen said slowly.

  "You... you're threatening us!" The woman with the surname Wang was so angry that her eyebrows were upside down.

  Mo Qingchen smiled: "You've seen through all this, how about it, have you thought it over carefully?"

  "Zhu's female disciple interjected: 'Mo Qingchen, aren't you afraid that Master Ruan will come looking for you again?'"

  Mo Qingchen twitched the corner of his mouth: "I'm so scared, but I won't leave Qingmu Peak. What can she do to me? Hehe, I don't know what benefits that person gave you, but you've put a roommate with no grudges in a desperate situation. Do you think it's easy inside the Discipline Hall?"

  After hearing Mo Qingchen's words, the two women's faces changed color. They had been in the training hall for more than three months and were only released today. Just thinking about it made their hearts tremble.

  The surname Zhu's female cultivator couldn't help but feel a hint of resentment in her heart, all because of Wang Shijie. If it wasn't for being tempted by Ruan Shishu's promised spiritual medicine that day, she wouldn't have ended up with this grudge. In the end, she didn't even get the chance to ask Ruan Shishu for the spiritual medicine and instead provoked Zhang Shishu's displeasure.

  Mo Qingchen can come out of the secret realm alive, and his cultivation speed is so fast, it's better to say that he has a good fate, why bother creating such a strong enemy for himself.

  Thinking of this, the female cultivator with the surname Zhu pulled at the hem of Wang's robe: "Elder Sister Wang, how about..."

  "What's going on? Are we just going to let things end like this today, and then be bullied every day from now on?" Wang asked with dissatisfaction as she saw Zhu's relaxed tone.

  Mo Qingchen's words were just a way to vent his anger, after all, he didn't know when he would be able to get back what he wanted from Ruan Lingshu. For now, getting some interest was good enough, and it wasn't that he really wanted to torment them every day in the future.

  It's just what they think, but she is not willing, how can she have so much energy!

  "You can rest assured that as long as you don't provoke me in the future, I naturally won't bother you. With that time, I'd rather cultivate myself!" Mo Qingchen said coldly.

  The two women obviously let out a sigh of relief, but then seemed at a loss for what to do next.

  Mo Qingchen didn't respond and turned to walk into the house, saying without looking back: "Remember, consider that matter settled. If there's a next time, although we can't kill each other, if one or two Qi Refining stage disciples go missing, I'm afraid no one will notice."

  Mo Qingchen entered the house, let out a long sigh, hoping that these two would not stir up any more trouble in the future. Although she had spoken harshly earlier, if she were to kill someone within the sect, she really didn't have the guts for it. Once discovered, the consequences would be unthinkable.

  Those two female cultivators were indeed intimidated by Mo Qingchen's words, usually hiding in their rooms to cultivate or going out to complete tasks, occasionally encountering Mo Qingchen and hastily nodding before quickly passing by, Mo Qingchen's days became much more peaceful.

  As the weather gets warmer, the pomegranate trees in the yard grow more and more luxuriant. The magpie has even built a nest on it and is reluctant to return to the Ling Beast Bag.

  Mo Qingchen didn't force it either, letting everything go its own way, only warning it not to go out and cause trouble.

  On this day, Mo Qingchen finally stopped and sat down on a chair under the tree, counting the storage bags he had obtained from Youle Valley.

  In the Worrying Valley, except for the first few days, the gains obtained by joining hands with Duan Qingge to fight against the enemy were roughly divided between the two before leaving the valley. After coming out, they were entangled in a series of events, and it was actually unclear what useful things they had.

  In the valley, the consumption of talismans and elixirs was the most intense. Mo Qingchen sorted out the remaining talismans, elixirs, and spirit stones, categorizing them neatly, and began to take stock of the materials.

  Materials include jade, agate, spiritual grass, spiritual medicine, and rare wood, etc., which are the most diverse and also the most testing of people's knowledge.

  Mo Qingchen sorted out the ones she recognized by category and put the ones she didn't recognize aside, leaving them for later.

  Only then did he start examining the magical instruments obtained this time.

  Because the cultivators who entered the secret realm, apart from a few major sects, also had many small sects and families, not all Qi Refining stage cultivators could possess magical instruments. Moreover, those with magical instruments would use them to defend themselves at critical moments of life and death, causing many magical instruments to be damaged. Therefore, Mo Qingchen did not obtain many magical instruments.

  About a dozen flying sword-type attack artifacts, except for one that was mid-grade, the rest were all low-grade, which is the most common type of artifact in the Cultivation Realm.

  There is also a jade hairpin, which is an artifact that combines attack and trapping the enemy in one body. The quality is quite good, it's a mid-tier artifact, but Mo Qingchen, who is used to using large bowls, isn't very interested.

  What she wants most is an attacking magic weapon, as for flying, trapping enemies and defense, it's a big bowl, at least before the Condensation Period, I haven't encountered a particularly good one, so I don't plan to change it.

  To know, apart from cultivation, a cultivator's familiarity with a magical tool directly determines the power of that magical tool.

  Then looked at several more magical instruments, all of which were ordinary and didn't have anything that would stir one's heart. Mo Qingchu picked up the last instrument.

  This artifact is only as big as a palm, rectangular in shape, with some thickness, and has an earthy yellow color. It really doesn't look very good.

  Mo Qingchen played with it and no matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was a... brick.

  She cast aside her strange conjecture and began to feel around with her divine sense.

  After a long time, Mo Qingchu's expression changed strangely as he slowly lifted his head.

  This is indeed an attacking artifact, and the method of use is also very simple. After using spiritual power to urge it on, it will become larger, with a specific size determined by the amount of spiritual power used. When attacking, it is controlled to call out to the opponent's body.

  This is just a piece of brick!

  They call it one power to defeat ten gatherings, Mo Qing dust has vines and swallows needles in attack, all of which are about unexpectedness, winning with skillful techniques, what is lacking is this kind of no technique, real and direct defense against the enemy's method.

  Just thinking that one day I'll be riding a giant bowl to fly in front of my opponent, and then drop a brick... isn't this too despicable?

  Although he was joking about it, Mo Qingchen decided to use this without any hesitation, after all, a suitable magic tool was hard to come by.

  Since his cultivation was somewhat stagnant, Mo Qingchen decided to spend the next few days studying this artifact thoroughly, so that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage in case of another conflict.

  In just a few days, she received the transmission talisman from the Supply Pavilion. It turned out that Zhu Ji Dan had been successfully refined and notified disciples who met the conditions to come and collect it.

  Mo Qingchen didn't know if that Ruan Lingxiu was really idle and had nothing to do, staring at herself every day to see if she would come out of Qingmu Peak. But it's said that when that woman touched on that man's affairs, she became somewhat crazy, and doing such a thing wasn't easy to say. After thinking about it, he sent a transmission talisman to Duan Qingge.

  "Not long after, Duan Qingge's transmission talisman returned: 'Qingchen Shimei, see you soon. I didn't expect that you would encounter such a big storm after returning and yet didn't tell me about it. I have just ended my closed-door meditation and may take on some tasks in the near future. Since you said that woman might look for trouble with you, to be safe, it's best not to leave Qingmu Peak for now. I've made inquiries and found out that she doesn't even give face to some of the unaffiliated Foundation Establishment masters, let alone our sect's rules. Currently, going against her would be unwise. There is a rule in our sect: disciples who have not yet reached the level of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage should temporarily not take the Foundation Establishment pill for safety reasons. You can go get it later when your cultivation has improved. Why don't you focus on cultivating first and wait until that woman gradually forgets about this matter before making plans? Shijie, Duan Qingge leaves."

  Mo Qingchen listened to Duan Qingge's suggestion and began to focus on his cultivation. During the intervals of his cultivation, he would practice magic spells seriously and familiarize himself with two types of magical instruments and array methods. When a certain type of elixir was about to run out, he would start refining it in the furnace.

  Apart from occasionally disguising herself and going to the market town to sell spiritual wine or buy some materials, Mo Qingchen rarely left her house.

  The Fire Crow went through its initial excitement period and started to get bored, in order to prevent its disturbance, Mo Qingchen specially refined a few large bottles of Bi Yu Wan and gave it to it, so that it could cultivate peacefully.

  Bì Jiǎo Wán is a special spirit medicine for spiritual beasts that can increase their power.

  In this way, three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

  Twenty-two-year-old Mo Qingchen was already at the eleventh layer of Qi Refining.

  She had just wanted to relax for a few days when she suddenly received an unexpected message, the contents of which made her face change greatly.
