427: A level 12 divine-grade Life Pill! A gift from Qingfeng!

Qing Feng picked up the ice mint soda and took a sip, her eyes lit up as she nodded and said, "This soda is good! How is it made? Can you tell me the recipe?"

"After you eat it, you can soak its pit in water!"

Su Lie took out a soul spirit fruit from the warehouse, and he softly explained the method of making ice mint soda: "I use Exorcism Holy Water that is automatically condensed by the jade bamboo tube!"

"jade bamboo tube? Let me see it!"

Qing Feng was stunned and looked up at Su Lie.

Buzz!

Su Lie once again took out a jade bamboo tube from the warehouse and handed the bamboo tube to Qing Feng.

Qing Feng's eyes flashed after seeing it: "Indeed! Indeed! This kind of resource is extremely rare, and even in the Guild, only a very small number of Survivors can possess such an item! Among Second-Turn Professionals, you are the only one who has it!"

"Good stuff!"

"Also, this soul spirit fruit... isn't there only one on a tree? This Soul Spirit Tree is a solitary plant, and it's already extremely rare for you to encounter one. If you were to encounter two... that's almost impossible!"

She deduced some information through these two god-level items, which made her gaze towards Su Lie become even more profound.

Qing Feng couldn't help but secretly exclaim in her heart: "Damn it! This kid is really showing off! If I had so many good things back then, I wouldn't have become an agent of the rules!"

Su Lie scratched his head: "The Planting Area in my territory has a sacrificial effect..."

He recounted the story of planting the Soul Spirit Tree.

Qing Feng was dumbfounded after hearing it: "Damn it! No wonder the Giant Temple wants to sign a grain supply contract with you! So your Planting Area has a sacrificial effect!"

"I remember this kind of rule only exists in the secret garden, how does the Planting Area have it too?"

"No! No!"

"You must have a Shelter that was upgraded with full conditions, and also a Shelter that was promoted with full conditions!"

"Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a change!"

Speaking of which.

She said to Su Lie, who was about to explain, "Alright! Don't say any more! I already know your background! More talk is useless!"

"Let's talk business!"

While speaking.

She naturally put the soul spirit fruit and the jade bamboo tube into her storage equipment.

Immediately after, her clear voice rang out.

"You said before that you have a 10% chance of refining a level 12 divine grade life elixir! So, my goal in coming here is to have you help me refine a batch of level 12 divine grade life elixir!"

Qing Feng looked at Su Lie and asked solemnly, "Honestly tell me, how much did you humble yourself in your previous statement?"

"My Treasure Refining furnace only needs one portion of elixir resources to refine 2.5 million portions of elixir! And it has a 100% success rate! How should I answer you?"

Su Lie blinked and turned to look at Qing Feng, asking in return.

Qing Feng was stunned, then laughed excitedly: "Good! Good! Good! You, young man, have both opportunities and the wisdom to hide your strengths, as well as luck and power! In the future, this Mist World will definitely have a place for you!"

"Don't worry! What I have seen and heard today, only I know, and I will never reveal it to anyone! I swear by the mist rule..."

As she spoke, she actually made a confidentiality oath in front of Su Lie.

This left Su Lie somewhat dumbfounded.

It was completely unnecessary!

Because the current Su Lie couldn't threaten Qing Feng at all.

Even if Qing Feng sold all the information she saw tonight.

Su Lie would have no way to deal with her.

But she still made a grand oath by the mist rule.

Why was this?

Su Lie was utterly confused.

"I do this to gain your trust! And also to ask you to help me refine an item in the future!"

Qing Feng seemed to have read Su Lie's mind, and she said bluntly, "Also, I've seen your potential, so naturally, I want to invest in you! Although you've joined December, you haven't joined any Hall!"

"The Reception Hall and Class Change Hall only recruit Spirit Servants of the mist rule, while my Punishment Hall needs not only Spirit Servants but also Survivors!"

"Join my Punishment Hall!"

"However, you can only start from the most basic level and need to complete various tasks to advance your position in the Punishment Hall!"

"I won't directly promote you to Vice Hall Master; that would be too obvious and not good for you!"

"You must understand the principle that a prominent tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!"

"But you also need to understand that if you are always weak and give in, you will lose many opportunities!"

"How to grasp the balance, you must decide for yourself!"

"Whether you are sharp and prominent, or you hide your abilities and play dumb!"

"As long as you don't betray humanity!"

"I, Qing Feng, will protect your life!"

...Speaking of this.

Qing Feng handed a Punishment Hall token to Su Lie.

[Buzz!]

At this moment, another prompt appeared in Su Lie's vision.

[Congratulations on being successfully recognized by Qing Feng, Hall Master of the Punishment Hall, and invited to join the Punishment Hall!]

[Note: When you accept the token and use it, your name will be directly listed as an official member of the Punishment Hall. You will enjoy a 50% discount on purchasing resources from the Punishment Hall, will join the exclusive Punishment Hall group, and can receive Punishment Hall crusade missions through the group or the mission module of your mist manual!]

[Note: The Punishment Hall's missions are primarily crusades, focusing on war and slaughter. Resources obtained during the crusade process and all other gains belong to you. The Punishment Hall only requires the successful completion of the crusade to award mission completion rewards!]

[Note: After joining the Punishment Hall, you will gain permission to join up to 5 teams simultaneously.]

"Oh? Joining the Punishment Hall has such benefits?"

Su Lie hesitated for a moment after seeing it, then picked up the Punishment Hall token.

On the token were carved two swords, and the pattern on the back was a headless Xingtian wielding an axe and shield in battle.

Buzz!

After Su Lie used this token.

A ray of light submerged into Su Lie's glabella.

Then.

His personal panel automatically popped up.

After his identity, a line of text appeared.

[Identity: Second-Turn Professional Mist Survivor; Survivor Guild Punishment Hall Warrior]

After Su Lie had reviewed his information.

Qing Feng then smiled and said, "Good! You have officially joined the core team of our Guild!"

"Sister! That's not right! Isn't the December I joined a core team?"

Su Lie asked, puzzled.

Qing Feng shook her head: "The teams formed by two Halls are Talent clusters used by each Hall to select suitable Talents. At most, they are considered outer teams! Whether it's mission rewards or the danger level of accepted missions, they are different from the true core teams!"

"Moreover!"

"If you want to compete for Vice Hall Master, Hall Master, or Vice Guild Master of the Survivor Guild, you must choose a Great Hall to join!"

"My Punishment Hall and the Pioneer Hall are the two Halls with the highest mortality rates in the entire Guild!"

"In necessary situations, there are mandatory conscription missions!"

"However! You are a rare Refiner profession with a ten thousand-fold Treasure Refining drop rate! I will give you special permission; you can refuse such missions!"

"Of course, I recommend that you accept such missions! They can bring you huge experience gains, as well as significant connections and recognition!"

She explained some precautions for the Punishment Hall, as well as mission key points and some mission-taking skills, and so on.

Then.

Qing Feng added Su Lie to the Punishment Hall's exclusive crusade group.

There was only a notification of a new member joining in the group, but no one was chatting.

Su Lie's arrival was like a stone falling into a river, not even creating a ripple.

After Qing Feng chatted with Su Lie for a while, she then asked Su Lie to help her refine the level 12 divine grade life elixir: "Su Lie! After this elixir is refined, I will still only take 10%. You keep the remaining elixirs for your own use. Remember not to sell them in the Trading Center, but you can sell them in the Cross Star Black Market!"

Speaking of which.

Su Lie's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked Qing Feng, "Sister! Do you know about the Cross Star Black Market?"

"Hmm! That's a black market jointly established by the Demon Hall's Survivors of our Guild and other races. There are lives from various ethnic groups, and it's considered a relatively fair and just black market!"

Qing Feng looked at Su Lie in surprise, she nodded and commented: "If you go there, you might encounter some trouble! After all, one of the Demon Hall's current missions is to find you to inquire about the truth of Zhang Qianyuan's death!"

"If they discover your identity, they will definitely detain you!"

"Moreover, although that place can also receive the protection of the mist rule, the power of the rules there is relatively weaker than here!"

"Like this!"

As she spoke.

Qing Feng once again took out a talent awakening scroll: "This talent awakening scroll can allow you to change your identity at any time, and it won't be judged as fake by the mist rule!"

Su Lie blinked. He didn't take the scroll rashly, but instead asked solemnly, "What price do I have to pay?"

"Hehe! Help me refine the level 12 divine grade life elixir! Besides giving me 10% of the elixir, you'll also need to give me two-thirds of the remaining elixir!"

Qing Feng chuckled and said solemnly, "How about this Talent and the remaining divine elixirs serve as your reward for helping me refine the elixir?"

"That works!"

Su Lie agreed to Qing Feng's request.

Ultimately.

For this elixir refining, Su Lie didn't need to invest any resources, and he could obtain a powerful Talent scroll and a large number of level 12 divine grade life elixirs.

In his opinion, this transaction was very worthwhile.

Just like that.

When the two arrived at the Treasure Refining room on the third floor of the Great Joy Tower.

Clatter!

Qing Feng, who was laughing, suddenly stopped, her feet sinking.

She stared with wide, disbelieving eyes, her heart almost leaping out of her throat.

The scene before her shocked her to the point of trembling.

"This... this... this... Don't tell me! This is a real Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace!"

Qing Feng stammered as she turned to ask.

In fact, she knew in her heart that this was absolutely real.

And it was the only Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace in the Mist World.

This was a supreme treasure that only Refiners could refine.

This was a legendary treasure in the Mist World.

This was different from the quality of an item.

This was a treasure passed down by word of mouth among all Refiners, a treasure they all dreamed of.

She finally understood.

Why Su Lie could 100% refine level 12 divine grade elixirs!

She also finally understood why Su Lie's elixir furnace could critically hit 2.5 million portions of elixir from 1 portion of elixir.

If she had such a treasure.

She could do the same!

But she just refused to believe that what she saw was real.

Su Lie looked at the startled Qing Feng and couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Hall Master Qing Feng should have seen the world! Why is she so surprised here? What's so strange about this?"

He then continued, "Yes!"

"Hiss! Kid! Kid! There are countless Refiners who can manifest this thing, but only you can truly create it!"

Qing Feng turned around and solemnly re-examined Su Lie, she asked somewhat tremblingly, "Kid! Honestly tell me, are you really a Son of the rules? You don't even need to answer, just give me a small hint!"

"Uh... You can interpret it however you want!"

Su Lie shook his head, wanting to refute, but felt it didn't matter.

Qing Feng nodded solemnly: "I understand!"

"No! You don't understand a thing!"

Su Lie's eyes widened, and he looked at Qing Feng in confusion.

Qing Feng smiled faintly, becoming more amiable, and gently pointed at the Treasure Refining room on the third floor.

Buzz!

In an instant, the Treasure Refining room was filled with radiant light.

Then.

A soft, glowing light gate appeared at the entrance of the Treasure Refining room.

And under this touch, a faint layer of silver-gray directly covered the exterior of the Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace.

Dragon and phoenix cloud seals were inscribed on the silver-gray.

As the color gradually dimmed.

The Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace turned into an ordinary elixir furnace.

However.

In Su Lie's perception, it was still that Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace.

When Su Lie looked at the eight treasures furnace, he saw a property appear on its panel.

[Hidden Rune Rule: Mortification (Temporary)]

[Mortification: Red God-level Quality, rule; The Purple Gold Eight Treasures Furnace is covered with a layer of hidden Runes. This Rune prevents any life form other than you, its owner, from seeing its panel or its true form.

Note: This is a temporary form and can last for 100 years.]

This made Su Lie feel a sense of relief.

He then looked at the light screen at the entrance of the Treasure Refining room.

Another panel automatically popped up...
