Two days later, Mo Wuji was stunned when he followed Zhen Shaoke onto what he thought was a beast-drawn carriage. This was no carriage at all; it was a spaceship.

"Zhen Shao, isn't this a flying beast carriage?" Mo Wuji asked as he boarded the spaceship, seeing its vast interior and various rooms.

Zhen Shaoke was taken aback, then laughed and said, "It seems you really have been a rogue cultivator, Wuji. The journey to the Five Elements Desolate Domain is long. A beast carriage would not only be slow, but it certainly couldn't fly there in a short time. This is a flying magic treasure; this spaceship is considered a low-grade spiritual weapon."

Mo Wuji had always known about weapon refiners, but this was the first time he had heard of magic treasure grades. He quickly asked, "Are spiritual weapons the same as magic treasures, capable of carrying people to fly?"

Zhen Shaoke didn't show any impatience and patiently explained, "Only flying magic treasures can carry people, like my spaceship. In fact, apart from the weapons used in the mortal world, magic treasures in the cultivation world are divided into magical implements and spiritual weapons. I've heard that above spiritual weapons are celestial artifacts, but that's just a legend.

"Both magical implements and spiritual weapons have distinctions of low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and top-grade. Most cultivators use magical implements; spiritual weapons are too expensive, and only a few can afford them. That's why a weapon refiner who can refine spiritual weapons has a status no lower than an Earth-Grade Pill Refiner."

So that was it. It seemed that the sharp knife he had obtained should be a magical implement.

After everyone boarded the spaceship, Mo Wuji was assigned a pill refining room. Yan'er and Xiong Xiuzhu shared a room, while Tao Ao and Fei Bingzhu shared another.

This spaceship was originally left by Zhen Shaoke to wait for Mo Wuji, so it was very spacious.

Shortly after everyone boarded, the spaceship shook slightly and shot straight into the sky.

Mo Wuji looked out the window and saw the white clouds receding rapidly, many times faster than an airplane. It was only now that Mo Wuji sighed inwardly, finally understanding why technology wasn't popular in this place. Places with technology were all places where cultivation was backward. How could an airplane be as convenient and fast as this spaceship? Even taking off and landing wasted a lot of time. And during the flight, various weather factors had to be considered.

The pill refining room he was in wasn't large, and a cyan-colored pill furnace stood in the center. Even if Mo Wuji didn't understand pill furnaces, he could tell that this one was better than the two he had used before.

On the spirit herb rack on one side of the pill refining room, all the spirit herbs that Mo Wuji had requested were placed.

This time, Mo Wuji was preparing to practice refining the Earth Yuan Pill. Among the fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills, the Earth Yuan Pill was considered the most common. Not only were its spirit herbs not that precious, but the refining techniques were also very simple.

The main purpose of this pill was to provide True Essence recovery for Yuan Dan realm cultivators. Similarly, cultivators below the Yuan Dan realm could also use it.

Mo Wuji originally thought that with his partial Divine Sense power and the ability to use Pill Dao Finger Gestures, refining fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills shouldn't be a problem.

But his first attempt gave Mo Wuji a rude awakening. Even with the simplest fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pill, the Earth Yuan Pill, he couldn't fuse the medicinal liquids.

The violent spiritual energy, even with his Pill Dao Finger Gestures, was to no avail. After he barely purified the spirit herbs, the medicinal liquids directly collapsed the moment they began to fuse. He simply couldn't control the outburst of violent spiritual nature. The Pill Dao Finger Gestures only allowed him to extend the time a little.

The difficulty of controlling a fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pill was more than ten times greater than that of a third-grade Human Spirit Pill.

After failing three times in a row, Mo Wuji stopped practicing. Continuing to try would only be a waste of materials.

What he lacked wasn't the refining technique or anything else; he lacked cultivation. Perhaps when he reached Pulse Opening ninth level, or the Spirit Building realm, he would be able to refine fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills. At least for now, he couldn't refine them.

Mo Wuji didn't care that he couldn't refine fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills. He believed that as long as he could participate in the competition, he could get a spot to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. Didn't Yin Qianqian say that Granny Linglong was going to the Five Elements Desolate Domain to seek spirit herbs? If he couldn't get Granny Linglong, he would go to the Five Elements Desolate Domain to find the spirit herbs Granny Linglong needed. As long as he catered to her preferences, he didn't believe he couldn't move Granny Linglong.

Not continuing to refine fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills, Mo Wuji didn't go out either. He continued to refine third-grade spirit pills. Not to familiarize himself with the refining techniques, but to hide the Pill Dao Finger Gestures. Once he participated in the competition, he might use the Pill Dao Finger Gestures. The best way was to hide the Pill Dao Finger Gestures in his hand gestures.

After all, most of the more powerful pill refiners had their own unique hand gestures when refining pills. As long as he did it subtly, no one should notice.

More than ten days passed quickly. This day, Mo Wuji estimated that he would soon arrive at the Five Elements Desolate Domain, so he simply turned off the pill furnace and opened the door of the pill refining room.

"Wuji, how was your harvest?" What Mo Wuji didn't expect was that Zhen Shaoke was waiting outside his door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhen Shaoke.

Mo Wuji said with some shame, "I failed. I underestimated the fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pill, and I failed three times in a row. After that, I was practicing the refinement of third-grade Human Spirit Pills."

Zhen Shaoke laughed and said, not minding at all, "It doesn't matter. There's less than an hour before we arrive at the Five Elements Desolate Domain Pill Competition venue. You've been cooped up for many days, let's go out and take a look."

Mo Wuji confirmed that he didn't see any disappointment in Zhen Shaoke's expression, which showed that Zhen Shaoke should have known when he made the request that he couldn't advance to become a fourth-grade Earth Pill Refiner. Zhen Shaoke knew this because he was clearer about the difficulty of advancing to become a pill refiner than he was.

Even though he knew he couldn't advance to become a fourth-grade Earth Pill Refiner, Zhen Shaoke still took out fourth-grade spirit herbs for him to practice with. No matter what Zhen Shaoke was thinking, he really wanted to befriend him.

Zhen Shaoke might not be a confidant, but he was truly someone worth cooperating with.

Arriving at the bow of the spaceship, Mo Wuji found that Yan'er had already been invited over by Zhen Shaoke. It seemed that Zhen Shaoke knew Yan'er's position in his heart.

As soon as Mo Wuji came out, Yan'er's eyes immediately calmed down, and she walked over and sat next to Mo Wuji.

"Wuji, are you taking Yan'er to the Five Elements Desolate Domain to seek help from Granny Linglong to save her?" After Mo Wuji and Yan'er spoke for a while, Zhen Shaoke suddenly asked.

"Yes, I heard that her condition can only be cured by Granny Linglong." Mo Wuji didn't hide it. Zhen Shaoke was the young master of the Pill Pavilion, and his knowledge was naturally extraordinary. It wasn't strange that he could see that Yan'er had failed to be spirit-married and had lost her memory.

Zhen Shaoke's expression became somewhat serious. "Wuji, although I also hope that Granny Linglong can help, I have to tell you that even if you see Granny Linglong, you won't be able to get her to help. So, don't have too much hope."

Mo Wuji already knew from Yin Qianqian that Granny Linglong wouldn't help. He sighed, "Even so, I still have to try to find her. I won't give up until the last moment."

Zhen Shaoke continued, "Wuji, I do have a way to get Granny Linglong to help, but this method is somewhat dangerous..."

Mo Wuji suddenly stood up and grabbed Zhen Shaoke, saying, "Zhen Shao, please tell me."

Zhen Shaoke patted Mo Wuji, signaled Mo Wuji to sit down again, and then said, "Don't be anxious, listen to me. Granny Linglong is not only the number one pill refiner of the Asking Heaven Learning Academy, but even in the Lost Continent, she is the undisputed number one in the Pill Dao. The things she needs are naturally not simple."

"Then will Granny Linglong also participate in the Five Elements Desolate Domain Pill Competition?" Mo Wuji interjected.

Zhen Shaoke smiled. "The Five Elements Desolate Domain Pill Competition has conditions. First, you must be a Human Pill Refiner of grade three or above. Second, you must be under a hundred years old. Above a hundred years old, even if your pill refining level is strong, you can't participate. The first condition isn't strictly enforced. In fact, during the pill competition, some second-grade Human Pill Refiners also participate. But second-grade Human Pill Refiners participating in this kind of competition is just humiliating themselves. It's impossible to get a ranking."

Hearing that there was an age limit, Mo Wuji finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was just a third-grade Human Pill Refiner. There were many pill refiners more powerful than him. If someone like Shen Lian's father also participated in the Five Elements Pill Competition, where would he have a chance?

"The Five Elements Desolate Domain Pill Competition takes the top hundred. The first place gets a hundred places to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. The second place gets ninety-nine places to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain, the third place gets ninety-eight places... and so on. The last place can only get one place to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. As long as you can get a ranking, you will have a chance to ask Granny Linglong to help. It's not easy to enter the top hundred, because this competition is almost a screening of the most powerful pill refiners on the Lost Continent."

"Zhen Shao, please speak." Mo Wuji had completely calmed down. This kind of competition method was very beneficial to him. He didn't need to be in first place, as long as he could get into the top hundred.

Zhen Shaoke hadn't been with Mo Wuji for a long time. There were more than ten days on the spaceship, and Mo Wuji had basically been refining pills during these ten days. Despite this, Zhen Shaoke had some understanding of Mo Wuji and greatly appreciated him. Mo Wuji had an indomitable fighting will, and most importantly, he was very calm.

Ordinary people being chased by the Second Elder would probably have been panicked, but he calmly took his family to the border city to find a teleportation array. If he hadn't stopped Mo Wuji, when the Second Elder chased him to the border city, he might have really teleported away.

"Most of the people who enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain are looking for the Flower of True God. What Granny Linglong needs is not the Flower of True God, but a kind of ice crystal..." Zhen Shaoke said.

Mo Wuji really didn't know about the Flower of True God. He only knew that the Heavenly Realm had three Heavens, but he didn't know which three Heavens. Although he wanted to ask Zhen Shaoke what the Flower of True God was, and the realms of the three Heavens of the Heavenly Realm, he still held back. What Granny Linglong was looking for was more important to him.

"May I ask, what kind of ice crystal is Granny Linglong looking for?" Mo Wuji then asked.
