10: Human-level mid-level magical power, wooden thorn

Li Ye was somewhat speechless; luck really played a major part in this “game.”

He was born in a place with many Yao Beasts, few resources, and it was on the edge of a desert. Thankfully, he had the System; otherwise, survival would have been very difficult.

Afterward, Li Ye took out the Pill Furnace and examined it again.

At this point, the success rate for refining the Wash Marrow Pill had reached twenty percent.

It just goes to show that having a Pill Furnace truly makes a difference.

He again consumed his remaining Yao Beast meat, exchanged it for a large amount of Spirit Medicine and materials in the trade market, and then began Alchemy.

He placed the Medicinal materials into the Pill Furnace and performed a series of operations.

“Wash Marrow Pill x 5. Refine?”

“Yes!”

“Refinement Result: None.”

“Damn it!”

“This consumed a large amount of Spirit Medicine, and the result is nothing?”

Li Ye’s eyes widened as he spoke, clearly annoyed.

“At least there was a 20 percent probability, right?”

“The probability of getting zero out of five is 0.32768, and I actually encountered that?”

Li Ye had, after all, studied high school mathematics, and he felt a bit indignant.

Subsequently, he checked the success rate. After five operations, it had just increased to 25 percent.

So, these five Alchemy attempts were not entirely useless.

Watching Li Ye constantly tinkering with something, Bai Jie asked curiously:

“Li Ye, what are you doing? You look very serious.”

Seeing Bai Jie’s curious gaze, Li Ye explained.

“My husband is truly my husband. While others are still worrying about survival, you’ve already started Alchemy~”

Bai Jie’s tone was sweet, and Li Ye couldn’t help but embrace her.

“Alas, let today’s Cultivation end here. How about we try some Dual Cultivation?”

Bai Jie blushed.

…

The night passed without a word. As cultivators, they had a wild night.

Just before dawn, Bai Jie’s loyalty was raised to 90.

“Survival Day Five.”

“Reward 1: The bath towel Bai Jie used for a year without washing before Transmigration.”

“Reward 2: Forty Low-Grade Spirit Stones.”

“Reward 3: Human Rank Medium Grade Divine Ability: Wood Thorn Technique.”

“Reward 4: Fifty silver ingots.”

“One top-tier goddess with 90+ points in the Immortal Cave. Choose two out of four rewards.”

“I choose Reward 2 and Reward 3.”

After selecting the rewards, Li Ye woke Bai Jie, who slowly opened her eyes.

“So early in the morning, you’re not going to…?”

“No, I’m just curious. Have you ever used a bath towel for a whole year before?”

A bath towel is used to wipe the body after bathing, but no matter how clean it is, it should be changed or washed every one or two months, otherwise it’s too dirty…

“Ah, you, how did you know?”

Bai Jie asked, confused.

“Nothing, I just didn’t expect a little fairy to also be unhygienic…”

“My bath towel was very fragrant, and it didn’t have any strange smell, so…”

After some playful banter, Li Ye ate something and prepared to go out. He wanted to gather some Medicinal materials, kill a few Yao Beasts, and find other resources outside.

“Husband, should I go with you?”

“No need. You can help me guard the door. At this stage, you just need to be a flowerpot.”

After Li Ye finished speaking, before going out, he consumed a dozen Spirit Stones to reach Qi Refining Second Layer Perfection, and then consumed another ten Spirit Stones to create a Storage Pouch.

He was determined to plunder a lot this time.

“I’m leaving. If there’s any danger, remember to tell me, and I’ll rush back immediately.”

Li Ye instructed and walked out the door.

“I’ll be at Qi Refining Stage 3 soon. By then, Yao Beast meat will also be edible, and I still have thirty pieces of Yao Beast meat stored.”

Soon, in one morning, he gathered enough Medicinal materials for four Wash Marrow Pills and three Blood Stasis Removing Pills.

Medicinal materials were easy to find.

In this Wasteland, any grass that could survive had a small probability of being a Spirit Medicine.

Of course, most of them were just weeds containing a small amount of Spiritual Qi.

And coincidentally, he also killed a few Yao Beasts, and he mindlessly put all the Yao Beast meat, Yao Beast blood, and Yao Beast bones into his Storage Pouch.

At this moment, three men surrounded him in the Withered Tree Forest.

Their eyes held apprehension and a fervent gaze, fixed on the Spirit Axe in Li Ye’s hand and the Storage Pouch at his waist.

Coincidentally, Li Ye’s Spiritual Qi consumption was somewhat severe.

“Who are you, and what do you want?”

Seeing that the three men were ill-intentioned, Li Ye frowned and asked.

“What do you think, little brother? You seem to be living quite comfortably in this Wasteland.”

The scar-faced leader said threateningly.

“What does my comfort have to do with you?”

“Go! Kill him! That axe and pickaxe will be ours!”

The scar-faced man roared, his body exuding the power of Qi Refining First Layer Perfection.

He was confident that, with the Wash Marrow Pill not yet available on the market, his strength was among the top in the entire Wasteland.

Of course, if he had seen how Li Ye slaughtered the Yao Beasts, he might not have thought so.

The scar-faced man still thought Li Ye had struggled to kill the Yao Beast.

And that he only relied on his weapons.

“I can do it too if I have weapons.”

With this thought, the three men surrounded Li Ye.

“Heh, Wood Thorn!!!”

Li Ye roared, and three Wood Thorn emerged from beneath the three men, instantly piercing their left chests.

The scar-faced man’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Divine Ability? How could this person have a Divine Ability?!”

Regret welled up within him as he closed his eyes and died.

Li Ye felt a little uncomfortable looking at the three corpses; after all, it was his first time taking a life.

But if he didn’t kill them, he would be the one to die.

He took all the items from the three corpses’ backpacks and even found some things.

Such as small knives and stone swords, but they were useless to Li Ye.

He thought for a moment, could human flesh be eaten?

Thinking of this, he suppressed his disgust and dismembered the corpses.

“Obtained Human Flesh × 20 (inedible, poisonous if consumed).”

“Alright, then I’ll throw it away.”

Li Ye disgustedly threw away the human flesh.

He didn’t know why he had such a thought. Could it be that he played too much in the forest before Transmigration?
