God rewards those who work hard: Awakening Daily Practice Settlement

"It's more likely that he's in danger, but we haven't found the body yet, so we can't be sure...but the two elders who were at the peak of the foundation building stage who were traveling with us both found the body...I didn't expect this incident to become such a big deal."

Senior Brother Ma also showed a somewhat nervous look for a rare time: "I heard that we lost at least two dozen Foundation Builders this time, including six peak-level Foundation Builders."

Pei Daoye listened quietly beside him.

To him, it didn't matter who died.

The key is whether Xuanshanmen can hold on...

If he really can't hold on, he'll have to run away as soon as possible.

Fortunately, after some inquiries, it was found that there had been no trouble on the first line of defense, but a large number of celestial demons had appeared in the ancient ruins.

"Heavenly demons? A large number of them suddenly appeared again... Is it possible that a space passage has appeared in the ancient ruins again?"

"Junior brother is right. Two space passages suddenly appeared where the ancient ruins were. If it weren't for the Golden Core Realm Heavenly Demon who couldn't pass through the passages, there would be even greater casualties."

The senior brother from the Censorate was also a little scared when he mentioned the ancient ruins.

Pei Daoye fell into thinking.

"Junior brother, Master is calling you over." Luo Li's voice came through the sound transmission note.

Upon seeing this, Pei Daoye nodded to his senior brother from the Inspection Court in front of him and went to the backyard of Jinyuan Peak.

"Who was that just now?" someone else from the Censorate asked.

"Junior Brother Pei from Jinyuan Peak."

"How do you know me?"

"Qin Tianjian has played against me several times before, and this Junior Brother Pei is also a wonderful person."

The two were talking when they suddenly saw someone. They immediately straightened their expressions and bowed together, "Greetings, Senior Brother Cheng."

Cheng Yuanji ignored the two of them, just looked at Pei Daoye's departing back, then turned and left.

……

"Master."

Pei Daoye walked into the room and saw Duan Changhou still rummaging through drawers looking for something, so he simply went forward to help.

Duan Changhou saw that it was him and said naturally, "Look for the March Flower book."

The master and disciple continued to search on their own.

Duan Changhou said as he searched, "I've heard from Elder Xu that you've entered the foundation-building stage. Originally, they wanted to send you out to guard the place for three to five years, but I stopped them. Although I rarely go out to make pills at the mountain gate, I still know the situation outside. Now, apart from Tianxiang City, there is no place safer than here. When you want to go out, tell me."

Pei Daoye was somewhat moved, and said in a deep voice: "Master, I will definitely not let you down."

Duan Changhou smiled rarely: "You can build your foundation so quickly, which is beyond my imagination. You have done very well. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

As he spoke, his smile faded and he pulled his beard subconsciously: "In today's world... that's all. Just practice hard, but don't be impatient."

"Yes."

"Are you still short of elixirs? Do you have enough foundation-building pills? I still have a few bottles left..."

"That's enough, Master."

Pei Daoye handed over the March Flower booklet.

Duan Changhou took it, flipped through it, nodded and said, "Yes, this is exactly what I'm looking for."

He immediately closed the book and said, "I think you have heard about what is happening at the mountain gate. The situation is more tense than you think. Whether it is the pressure from the outside world or some internal issues, as your master, I have nothing to teach you. I just hope that you can keep your original intention. If you are unsure, come to me."

"It's Master."

Pei Daoye still felt warm in his heart.

At the beginning, he and Duan Changhou were not very familiar with each other.

Or is it because of Shangguan Xiangling...

"Master, I heard that Elder Shangguan is missing."

"Elder Shangguan?" Duan Changhou was a little confused for a moment, as if he was not familiar with him.

This actually made Pei Daoye surprised.

Could it be that Duan Changhou accepted me as his apprentice not because of Shangguan Xiangling?
"There is a female elder in our Xuanshan Sect. I only heard about her from others... She is so heroic, but it's a pity... She is missing."

Pei Daoye spoke sincerely and in a very conscientious manner.

Duan Changhou felt a little regretful when he heard this, and indeed acted as if he was not familiar with Shangguan Xiangling.

Either his acting skills are so superb that Pei Daoye can't find any flaws.

Either he doesn't know Shangguan Xiangling at all,

This also means...

Xuanshanmen also has a backup plan in the form of Shangguan Xiangling.

"Things are getting interesting."

After Pei Daoye left Duan Changhou, he immediately forgot about Shangguan Xiangling's matter.

The most fundamental thing is... he needs to become stronger.

Not to mention how the Xuanshan Sect and the Xuanyin Sect will fight each other, once more and more space channels are built... the army of heavenly demons will attack the heartland of Zhongzhou, and then all the conspiracies and layouts will be a joke before their death in vain.

Taking on the task of becoming an inner court disciple is the inevitable trend.

He couldn't refuse.

Of course there is no need to refuse.

Becoming an inner court disciple would give you access to more resources.

After leaving Duan Changhou, Pei Daoye went directly to Elder Genglu on Tianmu Peak.

Hearing that he had obtained a lot of Chen gold, even Elder Geng Lu was amazed.

"How many demons have you killed? Is the situation in the north so complicated now?"

Without waiting for Pei Daoye to answer, Elder Geng Lu classified the materials in front of him. In particular, he was surprised when he saw that the blood armor he had previously made for this kid showed signs of having been strengthened.

"interesting."

He looked at Pei Daoye, and the light in his eyes was a kind of relief that he could still meet a rival at this age: "The weapon refiner you found has his own ideas. Previously, he took into account the upper limit of your armor, so he did not destroy its integrity. However, this weapon refiner was able to find another way and use the rhinoceros as a breakthrough point to increase the upper limit of the blood armor... A very clever idea. Moreover, this idea is very bold, and it is not so easy to operate. If you are not careful, it is possible to completely destroy the characteristics of the blood armor."

Pei Daoye was a little surprised.

Not only was Zhou Wenquan's weapon-refining ability surprising, but also Elder Geng was still quite skilled.

It was the first time he saw Elder Geng Lu telling a story so excitedly.

Although he didn't know much about refining equipment.

However, the fact that Zhou Wenquan could make the elder so excited undoubtedly demonstrated his ability.

Unexpectedly, the unintentional action that day led to an unexpected encounter with this talented weapon refiner living in the city.

"Are we going down the mountain?"

Elder Geng Lu seemed to have heard something.

"The Censorate just asked me to complete the inner court tasks for the time being." Pei Daoye did not hide anything.

Geng Lu only paused for a moment before guessing the reason. "Your master really cares about you."

Pei Daoye showed an expression that said, "I am lucky to have such a teacher."

"You can come here to pick me up tomorrow." Geng Lu said no more nonsense and waved his hand.

Pei Daoye clasped his fists in thanks.

Before leaving, he did not forget to send a voice message to Senior Brother Luo Li.

This kind-hearted senior brother revealed a hint of fatigue in his voice.

"Brother, one failure is nothing. Come out and I will help you find some inspiration."

Luo Li was a little curious about what Pei Daoye said about finding inspiration, but he was not sure. When they met, he found that he had fallen into Pei Daoye's "trap" again.

"Junior brother, you mean to find inspiration, don't you think you are here to drink?" Luo Li had more stubble on his face than before, and looked a little disheveled.

Pei Daoye just smiled mysteriously, poured wine for Luo Li, and then asked, "Brother, what have you been busy with these days?"

"The fusion of the second-level spring grass and the wood spirit always fails..."

Luo Li was somewhat helpless when he mentioned this matter, but Pei Daoye's words still touched his heart, so he started talking non-stop about the steps he had tried several times, but he still couldn't find a solution after repeatedly reviewing them.

"How about adding some neutralizing herbs?"

After listening to his story, Pei Daoye proposed his own solution.

But Luo Li still shook his head: "I have tried, but the neutralizing herbs will greatly weaken the effect of the wood spirit..."

"What if we reduce the dosage of the neutralizing herbs? Or increase the amount of wood spirit? But I tend to prefer the first method. After all, the price of wood spirit is there."

Pei Daoye pondered.

But Luo Li still shook his head and said, "I tried, but it didn't work."

"Still not working?" Pei Daoye paused for a moment and asked, "What neutralizing herbs did you use? As far as I know, the medicinal properties of Chunhua Grass and Muling are relatively stable, so they shouldn't fail."

“I use…”

Luo Li told the medicinal herbs he used.

One has to admit that as a senior spiritual plant practitioner, Brother Luo is very particular about the selection of medicinal materials, and even these herbs are not cheap.

"Junior brother, do you have any ideas?" Luo Li was also anxious.

Pei Daoye fell into deep thought: "If the neutralizing medicine doesn't work, should we try some strong herbs to fight poison with poison?"

Luo Li was startled and hesitated: "Is it really possible?"

“We have to try after all.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Li immediately made a decision and wanted to conduct the experiment.

Pei Daoye did not stop them, but followed them instead. The two of them no longer wanted to continue drinking.

It was the first time he came to Luo Li's residence. The three rooms were connected together. The walls were embedded with steel plates, on which many densely packed grooves could be seen.

It can be seen that the experiments Luo Li usually does are quite dangerous.

Luo Li took out his own special boiler, which was at least twice as large as Pei Daoye's alchemy furnace... and skillfully began to wash the medicine, boil it, and control the temperature.

Pei Daoye provided a strong spiritual medicine, which was not rare and could be purchased at low prices in major commercial banks. He also reminded: "Slowly simmer over low heat, add a small half first... wait for the medicinal properties to take effect."

Fortunately, Luo Li is not the kind of conceited person, otherwise, if a senior brother is commanded by a junior brother, anyone else would have been dissatisfied.

But Luo Li maintained his gentle character and began to place the medicinal materials according to Pei Daoye's method.

He himself is a master in alchemy, and his control over the temperature is among the top five in the entire Xuanshan Sect.

"Add a little more." Pei Daoye reminded.

Luo Li also understood, and his tone was somewhat surprised at the moment: "Junior brother, did you see it just now? The medicinal properties have actually been neutralized... Fighting poison with poison is indeed a good method."

Just finished.

With a "bang", the medicine furnace suddenly exploded.

A cloud of black fog filled the air.

Luo Li was choked and coughed continuously, but his eyes sparkled as he said, "Junior brother, your trick really inspired me! It's brilliant! Fighting poison with poison is really brilliant! Junior brother, you are definitely a genius, come and become a spiritual plant cultivator with me! I dare say that in the future we will definitely be the most outstanding spiritual plant cultivators!"

"..."

Wait, something seems not quite right.

Pei Daoye looked over.

Luo Li stared at himself with shining eyes, as if he had finally found a confidant. He wished he could change Pei Daoye from a sword form into a spiritual plant cultivator right now.

"Brother, don't be distracted at this time. Try again."

"boom!"

"Brother, your heart is not at peace, come again!"
