Assassin type?

Gu Xi carefully scrutinized Li Yufang, feeling that something was amiss in this situation.

During Li Yufang’s attribute enhancement at Level 15 and Level 25, her enhancements were all about constitution.

Moreover, her constitution attribute is the strongest; she should be a standard tank template.

How could she be an assassin?

Could it be that Li Yufang is taking the approach of killing everyone who sees her as a mode of safe infiltration?

Gu Xi was still considering Li Yufang’s situation when she couldn’t help but ask a question.

"Little gentleman, what are you holding in your hand?"

Only then did Gu Xi realize that suddenly, there was a scroll of book in his hand.

Looking down, Gu Xi quickly saw a message pop up in front of him.

[Taishan Prefect’s Secret Record (Orange, Part One): This is a book of reflections from the cultivation of the Lord of Mount Tai, recording his cultivation journey from Level 1 to Level 45.

However, in this world, Level 45 has already reached the limit, so the Lord of Mount Tai has always been looking for other breakthroughs, all of which are recorded in the second half.

Only when the two volumes are combined will this become a complete secret record.]

[Note: The secret record also notes the respective secret techniques, secret ceremonies practiced by the Lord of Mount Tai, and the crafting method of an Orange Magical Treasure.]

Gu Xi understood immediately that this was a reward given to him by the Lord of Mount Tai.

You wonder why people here are so straightforward.

He hadn’t done anything, and this thing was directly placed in his hand.

There was no concern at all whether he would just run away without completing any tasks.

How could he be so careless?

It made Gu Xi feel too embarrassed to leave right away.

No matter what, he had to stay here for fifteen days at least.

However, at this point, sending someone to the alchemist for refining Herbs into Elixir was obviously not feasible anymore.

Various thoughts quickly flashed through Gu Xi’s mind while he still responded to Li Yufang’s question.

"This, ah, it’s some reflections from before, brought out to reinforce myself a bit."

Gu Xi casually waved, and an aura of Level 45 emerged from the scroll of "Taishan Prefecture’s Secret Record."

Although the aura was quite faint, both Li Yufang and Wang Datong present could feel it.

This was the aura of the person they imagined.

Seeing the expressions of these two, Gu Xi immediately understood that what he did was a bit too reckless.

He shouldn’t have released the Lord’s aura like that.

So, he quietly put away the "Taishan Prefect’s Secret Record" and turned to look at Li Yufang.

"Let’s not talk about this. Since I have accepted you, I must consider for you. This time, you probably won’t get the Grass Returning Pill, but in your current situation, without it, you’ll probably not be able to break through, right?"

"Yes, I’m currently stuck at the stage of Extreme Yin to Yang. If I forcefully convert, it could work, but I fear the Earth Immortal Thunder Tribulation afterward won’t be overcome."

At this time, Gu Xi roughly understood the level division in this world.

In this world, Level 20 is the starting point for cultivation, with the stage of entering Immortal from Level 25 to 30 based on individual circumstances.

Ghost Immortal and Loose Immortal are the weakest, achievable at Level 25.

Corpse Dissolving Immortal is slightly more advanced than Ghost Immortal, requiring Level 30, abandoning the physical body, and rebuilding from scratch to break through.

Moving higher, reaching Human Immortal at Level 35, passing Thunder Tribulation to become Earth Immortal at Level 40, and Level 45 being the limit, known as Celestial Immortal.

Of course, though there are many Celestial Immortals, their limit is just a few, like the Lord Gu Xi just met and another who never admits to being a Celestial Immortal, only a more powerful Earth Immortal, the Ancestor of Earth Immortals.

Liu Baiwei’s goddess coming over this time, if obtaining the Immortal Pill, would also be at this level.

Currently, Li Yufang is stuck at the Human Immortal stage.

With her identity as a Living Ghost, breaking through this stage is quite simple.

But after breaking through, she won’t be able to pass the Thunder Tribulation.

The Grass Returning Pill appearing this time has become Li Yufang’s best option.

However, after following Gu Xi, Li Yufang’s path was cut off.

Thus, for Li Yufang to reach Earth Immortal level, she had to find another new path.

This is quite difficult.

After all, not every place in this world has Grass Returning Pill, and the elixirs of the same level as Grass Returning Pill either don’t suit Li Yufang’s situation or lead to another path altogether.

In any case, none are as useful as the Grass Returning Pill.

At this moment, Gu Xi asked, "Are you familiar with the Grass Returning Pill?"

Li Yufang turned to see that Wang Datong had already arrived, and Gu Xi’s question included Wang Datong as well.

"Familiar, yes. When we became Living Ghosts, we should have known that only Grass Returning Pill is most suitable for us, so we have always been seeking opportunities to obtain it.

This time is our only opportunity to get in touch with Grass Returning Pill nearby."

Li Yufang said with some regret.

Grass Returning Pill is something that’s not hard to make, but getting it is quite troublesome.

Every step takes at least thirty or forty years, and altogether, even the worst Grass Returning Pill here takes about two hundred years.

Moreover, only twelve are produced here, with only three kept for Living Ghosts.

The rest are taken by others.

All Living Ghosts definitely need to inquire clearly about the Grass Returning Pill.

Hearing Gu Xi’s question, both Li Yufang and Wang Datong began talking.

What they said was the most basic version, focusing more on how to utilize the Grass Returning Pill.

In what they said, directly consuming the Grass Returning Pill was not recommended.

Usually, Living Ghosts would use the Grass Returning Pill as a body part, or extract Spiritual Qi to integrate the Pill into their body.

But this wasn’t what Gu Xi was concerned about.

He wanted to know how the Grass Returning Pill was refined.

Gu Xi interrupted Li Yufang and Wang Datong.

"If we gather the materials ourselves, can we find an alchemist to refine the Grass Returning Pill?"

Regarding Gu Xi’s question, Li Yufang and Wang Datong exchanged glances, not knowing how to respond.

They had never thought of such a thing.

Seeing them like this, Gu Xi couldn’t help asking.

"Why haven’t you thought of it this way? Look, Grass Returning Pill results in twelve pills per batch. As long as we find six Living Ghosts of similar strength to gather suitable materials, can’t we hire someone to refine it?

At that time, just give the extra pills to the alchemist, and that’s it. Why wait for the alchemist to collect materials to refine it?"

Listening to Gu Xi’s question, both Li Yufang and Wang Datong were stunned.

Then Wang Datong said, "Sir, Grass Returning Pill is unlike other elixirs; it cannot be moved during refining. We can gather all the materials, but once the Grass Returning Pill is set, just us alone won’t be able to protect it."
