Mu Hengyuan was also drenched in sweat, not from heat, but from nervousness. With his cultivation level, sweating was almost impossible, this was the result of mental shock.

Mi Xiaojing kept giving instructions non-stop. Since everyone was very nervous, no one found this abnormal. It should be known that Mi Xiaojing was only a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, yet he could guide a master at the Elemental Infant stage. If this was spread out, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

Even if Mi Xiaojing explained in great detail, Mu Hengyuan still failed in condensing the elixir. Mi Xiaojing couldn't figure out where the problem was. He only heard a loud bang, the Divine Pill exploded before it could condense, and a burnt fragrance spread out in an instant.

Frustrated, Mu Hengyuan shouted, "Damn it!"

Yu Hong said, "Junior brother, you've done very well."

Indeed, it was very good. No one had expected that the first attempt at refining the Divine Pill could reach the stage of condensing the elixir. This progress was absolutely satisfying.

Mu Hengyuan wiped his face forcefully, calmed down a bit, and said, "What a pity, such a pity."

Yu Hong said, "If there's a high possibility of success in this step, rest for a few days and try again!"

Mu Hengyuan didn't speak, but closed his eyes in deep thought. Everyone was nervously watching him. The key to success had shifted from Mi Xiaojing to Mu Hengyuan.

After a while, Mu Hengyuan sighed deeply, "I've thought about it. Unless I have the experience of failing several times, or even more than a dozen times, there might be a slim chance of success. The cost is too high, we can't afford it!"

Among the materials for the Divine Pill, some spirit herbs were very rare. It was not easy to gather a complete set. They didn't have many materials for refining. Once exhausted, even if he could condense the elixir, it would be useless without materials. This was also the reason why Mu Hengyuan dared not try.

Everyone sighed after hearing this. The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden asked, "Is this step so difficult? Mi Xiaojing, if your cultivation level is high enough, can you complete this step?"

Mi Xiaojing nodded, "If my cultivation level is high enough, there should be no problem. With the materials gathered by the sect, I think I should be able to succeed once or twice."

He didn't dare to say more, but after this alchemy, he had a rough idea. Although the Divine Pill was extremely complex, if his cultivation level improved, and he was careful and meticulous, the chances of success would be quite high.

Yu Hong stood up and said, "Let's store the materials first and wait until Mi Xiaojing's cultivation level increases. Indeed, he is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, and refining a Spirit Pill of the Elemental Infant stage is too forced. We have enough time to wait for him to grow."

The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden said, "Yes, there's no need to refine it now. With this little guy here, we can always refine it."

Mo Chentian asked, "Mi Xiaojing, the cultivation method you practice seems quite special, right?"

Mi Xiaojing was startled, but before he could answer, Yu Hong said, "Let's not ask about what cultivation method he practices. The sect doesn't care about this. Mi Xiaojing, if you need anything in the future, just come to us. If it's a problem that can be solved, the sect will definitely help. Also, Yong Ji will follow you, and he will be responsible for your safety!"

Mi Xiaojing understood a bit. As expected, the sect's high-level officials had heard about his conflict with Chen Shouyi, so they sent someone to protect him. With Yong Ji around, even if Chen Shouyi had the guts, he wouldn't dare to kill him again.

Mo Chentian said, "I mean the same thing. If your cultivation method is special, then whatever you need, the sect will provide for you. Just focus on your cultivation and try to improve your cultivation level as soon as possible. After all, your current cultivation level is too low. If you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, maybe you can succeed in refining the Divine Pill."

Everyone was very clear that apart from his insufficient cultivation level, Mi Xiaojing had no other problems. Just by watching him guide Mu Hengyuan, they knew that this little guy was really good at alchemy.

Yu Hong asked, "Should the materials be stored with me or with you?"

Mi Xiaojing was delighted, he said, "Keep them with me. When I have time, I can process and purify them."

Yu Hong nodded, "Alright, the remaining materials will be kept with you."

Mu Hengyuan had already extinguished the fire control array and stopped the operation of the Pill Cauldron. He was still sighing in his heart. He was so close, but he couldn't find where he went wrong, which made him quite frustrated.

Yu Hong said, "That's it for today. Mi Xiaojing, go back and rest. You've worked hard these past few days."

As he spoke, Yu Hong stood up. Mo Chentian and the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden both nodded at Mi Xiaojing. This represented the high-level officials of the sect's high recognition of him. A small cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage could be so valued by the sect. Mi Xiaojing could be proud of this. Of course, he still didn't have much goodwill towards the Heart Sect.

Wang Weijun said, "Not bad, not bad, these materials are quite good. It's best to keep them in your bag. It would be even better if you could steal the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture. That's the real treasure!"

Mi Xiaojing was startled. Steal the Ancient Tribulation Pill Scripture? What a joke! That was the most important treasure of the sect. It was usually not kept in the storage room, but carried by the elder. Stealing something from a cultivator at the Elemental Infant stage was not the way to seek death.After Yu Hong and the others left, Mu Hengyuan finally approached Mi Xiaojing: "You did well. From now on, Mu Xiaoyin will follow you."

This statement left Mi Xiaojing stunned. He hadn't expected Mu Hengyuan to propose this: "Senior Sister?"

Mu Hengyuan said: "She is my only relative in this world who still shares my bloodline. She will live in the Gathering Spring annex from now on. She has started her Evolutionary Immortality, you taught her, didn't you?"

Mi Xiaojing immediately understood, which explained why Mu Xiaoyin, a mere mortal, dared to call Chen Shouyi an old man, and why a mortal could be in the most important department of the sect. It turned out that Mu Xiaoyin really had a powerful backing.

"I..."

"You don't need to explain. I know she has always been unable to cultivate. Since she can now pursue Evolutionary Immortality, let her do so. It's better than being a mere mortal."

Mi Xiaojing looked at Mu Hengyuan speechlessly. It turned out they knew everything, but they just didn't tell him. If he hadn't shown his extraordinary talent in Alchemy this time, they would probably still ignore him.

Without saying more, Mu Hengyuan turned and left first.

Mi Xiaojing didn't want to stay here for long either. The Alchemy process this time had nearly exhausted him. He had never been so tired before, and the power of the Starry Sky within him had also been mostly consumed. He slowly walked out.

As he was about to reach the door, Yong Ji appeared not far away and walked towards him.

Mi Xiaojing knew that Yong Ji would follow him in the future, so he didn't say much. As he reached the door, he saw a person coming face to face.

Chen Shouyi!
