Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 453: Liar
Back in his room, Mo Wuji immediately activated the original restrictions. Then, his spiritual consciousness landed on the poisonous mark in his sea of consciousness.
Soon, Mo Wuji understood what kind of mark this was. Not only did it contain a spiritual consciousness tracking mark, but it also had strong toxicity. This toxicity was controlled by someone else. Once they wanted to, they could detonate the poison in the mark at any time. Then, the poison would instantly invade his sea of consciousness and entire meridian system.
Mo Wuji didn't do anything about this mark. He didn't care at all. First, he didn't plan to run away. He hadn't offended anyone here, at most he had just smuggled himself through the Immortal Chasm. Secondly, he had the Detoxification Meridian. He didn't care when the toxicity would explode.
After putting aside the poisonous spiritual consciousness mark, Mo Wuji then took out the pill.
Mo Wuji had never heard of a Meridian Nurturing Pill before. He didn't know what grade of Immortal Pill it was. Being able to repair the spiritual meridians of an Earth Immortal cultivator, it definitely wasn't a simple thing.
He had just come from a cultivation planet and didn't know any Immortal Pill formulas. He naturally had to identify this Meridian Nurturing Pill.
Even as the Meridian Nurturing Pill was still in Mo Wuji's palm, it emitted a faint fragrance. From the quality, Mo Wuji felt that the grade of this pill wasn't high, even a low-grade Immortal Pill.
After observing it for a while, Mo Wuji put the pill into his mouth. The Meridian Nurturing Pill melted instantly in his mouth, but this didn't affect Mo Wuji's identification of the pill formula. His pill refining techniques were all deduced by himself. As long as he had the pill, he had a natural advantage in deducing the pill formula.
Soon, Mo Wuji could only sigh. He identified that this pill used at least ten different medicinal herbs. Unfortunately, he had never seen any of the herbs before, indicating that the Meridian Nurturing Pill was entirely composed of Immortal spiritual herbs. He didn't recognize a single Immortal spiritual herb, so how could he deduce the pill formula?
A faint wisp of Immortal spiritual energy flowed to his severed meridians, and the severed meridians began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"As expected, it's a good thing." Mo Wuji immediately reversed all his meridians, cooperating with the repair of the severed meridians.
In just two hours, the four meridians were completely repaired. Almost at the instant when all one hundred and seven meridians were connected, Mo Wuji's sea of consciousness shook, and his cultivation directly advanced to the twelfth level of the Earth Immortal Realm.
The lost essence energy returned to his body, and even his spiritual consciousness strengthened a lot.
Mo Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of what cultivation level the twelfth level of the Earth Immortal Realm was in this place, he finally had the ability to act.
Regardless of whether Wen Lianxi had placed a trace of poisonous mark in his sea of consciousness, Mo Wuji was still very grateful to this woman. After all, she didn't know him and didn't know what kind of person he was. It was understandable that she wanted to seize the initiative after helping him so much.
Mo Wuji opened the ring given by Wen Lianxi. When his spiritual consciousness landed in the ring, he immediately sucked in a cold breath.
"How wealthy! The lowest-grade herbs are all Grade Eight spiritual herbs, and they're the least numerous. The most numerous are Grade Nine spiritual herbs and Grade One Immortal herbs." He knew that these spiritual herbs were very difficult to come by even a single stalk of back in True Star Planet.
In addition, he also saw a jade slip, a Low-Grade Immortal artifact pill furnace, and a pile of Immortal Crystals. These Immortal Crystals were all Low-Grade Immortal Crystals, but Mo Wuji felt that these Immortal Crystals seemed to have been specially sourced by Wen Lianxi. She herself probably used Mid-Grade or even High-Grade Immortal Crystals.
Wen Lianxi probably knew that he came from the Half-Immortal Domain and was dirt poor, so she gave him a pill furnace and some Immortal Crystals.
Regardless of what kind of Immortal Crystals they were, they were a godsend to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji didn't cultivate. His Immortal Mortal Technique was different from ordinary cultivation techniques. It wasn't just a meridian cultivation technique, but also a reverse cultivation technique.
He didn't know what Wen Lianxi's cultivation level was, but it was definitely higher than his. If he cultivated here and was discovered, it wouldn't be a good thing.
Thinking of this, Mo Wuji took out the jade slip. As soon as his spiritual consciousness entered the jade slip, he felt a spiritual consciousness sweep over.
Mo Wuji knew that Wen Lianxi was checking what he was doing. He didn't care and continued to observe the jade slip.
This was a low-level Pill Dao jade slip, simply introducing some Immortal Realm spiritual herbs and some characteristics of the herbs. Some of the introduced spiritual herbs were in his ring.
In addition, there were some Grade One Immortal Pill refining techniques, all of which were basic things. Mo Wuji wouldn't learn these things. He just needed to understand them. His techniques and pill refining methods came from his own deductions. Even his array Dao had broken away from Chu Xingzi's inheritance and begun to establish his own array Dao.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Mo Wuji put down the jade slip. He began to refine the Low-Grade pill furnace. Mo Wuji didn't have any spiritual consciousness techniques, but his spiritual consciousness was much stronger than that of ordinary Earth Immortal cultivators.
It took half an hour for Mo Wuji to refine the Low-Grade Immortal artifact pill furnace.
Mo Wuji didn't waste any time. After refining the pill furnace, he took out some Grade Eight spiritual herbs and began to refine Grade Eight spiritual pills.
He told Wen Lianxi that he was a Grade Nine Heavenly Pill Refiner, but in fact, he had never even refined a Grade Eight spiritual pill, let alone a Grade Nine spiritual pill. So, he had to become a true Grade Nine Heavenly Pill Refiner in the shortest possible time. As long as he had spiritual herbs, it wouldn't be difficult for him.
Mo Wuji didn't dare to use his Azure Cloth Heart Flame. He was just an Earth Immortal cultivator. How could he dare to take out such a flame?
He simply summoned his Earth Immortal flame. Mo Wuji chose the Grade Eight Heavenly Spirit Pill, the Illusion Void Pill. This was a pill used to restore the essence energy of cultivators above the True God Realm. Back in True Star Planet, Mo Wuji wanted to refine this pill, but he couldn't find the Illusion Immortal Grass.
The Illusion Immortal Grass was a Grade Eight spiritual herb, astonishingly expensive and rarely seen. So, he had no way to refine the Illusion Void Pill. At this time, Wen Lianxi gave him at least a dozen Illusion Immortal Grasses in her ring, and the auxiliary medicinal herbs were also complete. He naturally had to start refining the Illusion Void Pill.
Mo Wuji seemed to have returned to the time of the past Without Trace Sword Sect, single-mindedly learning and deducing the refinement of a pill.
One by one, medicinal herbs were thrown into the pill furnace. In the Low-Grade Immortal artifact pill furnace, even if he only had Earth Immortal flames, the medicinal herbs melted quickly, and Mo Wuji began to purify the medicinal herbs.
Usually, when he refined pills, the essence of the purified medicinal herbs was more than 90%. At this time, he used a Low-Grade Immortal artifact pill furnace to purify medicinal herbs, and he wanted to try whether he could purify 100% purity medicinal liquid.
Mo Wuji quickly knew the result. When his medicinal liquid was close to 100%, there was a crisp explosion, and the smell of burning told him that the first furnace of pills had failed.
Mo Wuji still failed in the second furnace, the third furnace, the fourth furnace...
As long as the essence of the purified medicinal herbs approached 100%, if he continued, the medicinal herbs would directly explode.
...
Wen Lianxi stared at a monitoring screen. The first time she extended her spiritual consciousness to observe Mo Wuji was to let Mo Wuji know that she was checking his pill refining. If Mo Wuji dared to refine pills under her spiritual consciousness, it would mean that she had not chosen the wrong person. But in fact, Mo Wuji did not refine pills. He spent an hour or two fiddling with the jade slip and pill furnace.
After that, Wen Lianxi withdrew her spiritual consciousness and opened the hidden monitoring screen in Mo Wuji's room. She wanted to know if Mo Wuji dared to try refining pills only after her spiritual consciousness had been withdrawn.
But the fact was that she was both disappointed and angry. Mo Wuji spent several hours and failed eight furnaces of pills in a row, without even refining a single defective pill. No wonder he only dared to refine pills after her spiritual consciousness had been withdrawn.
If she still couldn't see that Mo Wuji was not a Grade Nine Heavenly Pill Refiner at this time, she would be an idiot. A former Grade Nine Heavenly Pill Refiner, after recovering his strength, continuously refined eight furnaces of Grade Eight Heavenly Spirit Pills, but all of them failed, without even a single waste pill. This might only fool her, Wen Lianxi. Even if she were to refine Grade Eight Heavenly Spirit Pills, she could produce a few waste pills.
She sighed, thinking that she was indeed at the end of her rope, otherwise how could she believe that a random guy she met was a genius pill refiner?
Even Mo Wuji's claim that he crossed the Immortal Chasm was regarded as a lie by Wen Lianxi. She received news that a warship from the Half-Immortal Domain crossed the Immortal Chasm. She was sure that Mo Wuji was on that warship. Even crossing the Immortal Chasm with a warship was very likely to result in injuries. Probably because Mo Wuji was injured, his companions were unwilling to take him with them.
Mo Wuji was anxious and deceived her because he wanted to escape to a safe place. Thinking of Mo Wuji's eagerness to survive, Wen Lianxi sighed again. She didn't like killing. Although she was used by Mo Wuji, she just wanted to throw Mo Wuji down and never see this liar again.
...
When Mo Wuji failed eight furnaces of pills in a row, he knew that the problem should be with his flames. He didn't continue to try the ninth furnace of pills. In the process of these eight furnace failures, Mo Wuji had already confirmed that he could easily refine the Illusion Void Pill.
Just as Mo Wuji grabbed several medicinal herbs, preparing to truly refine a furnace of Illusion Void Pill, the restriction at his door was triggered.
Mo Wuji hurriedly opened the restriction and saw Wen Lianxi standing at his door. He quickly clasped his fists and said, "Senior Sister Wen."
Wen Lianxi stared at Mo Wuji for a while. She found that she was really too naive, thinking that everyone in this world was like her, and at least would feel guilty and uneasy after doing something wrong. Just like before when she planted a poisonous spiritual consciousness mark in Mo Wuji's sea of consciousness, she felt guilty for a while. She couldn't see any guilt in Mo Wuji's eyes.
"Friend Mo, has your pill refining level recovered?" Wen Lianxi tried to ask in a calm tone.
