5: Master of Herbal Plants! Completed the 7th level of Qi Refining

"If you keep staring at me like that, I really won't be able to control myself!" Wei Zhou said, deliberately putting on a fierce expression.

Li Yawei gritted her teeth, baring her fangs and claws as she pounced on Wei Zhou.

Wei Zhou stroked her beautiful hair, then turned and walked into the bedroom.

Upon entering the bedroom, Wei Zhou's mind sank into his consciousness, checking the entries he had recently acquired.

Entry: [Cultivation x 15.]

Entry: [Talent Medicine Herb (Green).]

Entry: [Faint Spiritual Qi x 5.]

Entry: [Faint Blood Qi x 10.]

Entry: [Faint Spiritual Qi x 10.]

Entry: [Talent Medicine Herb (Green).]

He tried to click on the Talent entry with his Divine Thought in his mind, and "[Synthesizable]" popped up behind it.

Without hesitation, Wei Zhou immediately pressed it twice.

The positions of the two Talent entries slowly dissipated.

Immediately after, a new entry condensed in the original position of one of the Talent entries.

[Entry: Medicine Herb Great Master (Blue). The survival rate of the medicine herbs you plant increases to 70%, and the yield increases to 50%. There is a certain chance of planting medicine herbs with ancestral Bloodline.]

Upon seeing the function of this new entry, Wei Zhou couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.

A 70% increase in the survival rate of planted medicine herbs meant that if he planted 10 medicine herbs, 7 would definitely survive.

That meant he could participate in the First Grade Medicine Herb Master assessment. After all, the assessment required randomly planting 10 medicine herbs, and if 5 survived, he would pass the First Grade Medicine Herb Master assessment.

Becoming a First Grade Medicine Herb Master would not only greatly increase his income but also elevate his status.

Faced with such a great temptation, no one could resist.

Neither could Wei Zhou.

With a thought, he immediately used that entry.

Instantly, a vast amount of knowledge surged into his mind.

It not only contained methods to increase the survival rate of medicine herbs but also included a book called "Encyclopedia of Medicine Herbs."

As the name suggested, this book, "Encyclopedia of Medicine Herbs," recorded and covered all the medicine herbs in the world.

From miscellaneous grade medicine herbs to ninth-grade medicine herbs, and even super grade, Divine Grade, and immortal grade medicine herbs, it had records of them all, along with the planting methods for all medicine herbs.

Wei Zhou couldn't help but feel excited upon seeing this.

He tried to construct the book in his mind and materialize it into reality.

After dozens of repeated attempts, he actually succeeded. A grayish-brown book instantly appeared in his hand, with the six large characters "Encyclopedia of Medicine Herbs" written on its cover.

He slowly opened the book, and a faint ancient, profound, and Vicissitudes aura emanated from it.

Turning page after page, he reached the fifth page and finally found the six types of medicine herbs he had planted.

The descriptions in the book were much more detailed than those from the outside world. For example, [Kongtong Flower], which in the outside world was a medicine herb that could only refine the first-grade mid-tier Medicinal Pill, <Qi Augmenting Pill>.

The book also stated that once the [Kongtong Flower] exceeded 500 years in age, it could be used as a primary ingredient for refining foundation establishment pill Medicinal Pills.

Wei Zhou devoured the book, turning pages until he finished with the second-grade medicine herbs, then he could no longer turn any further.

Even if he used his Spiritual Qi and all his strength, he couldn't move it even a little.

Helpless, he could only turn his attention to studying the other entries.

After a quarter of an hour, Wei Zhou had fully understood how to use the entries.

He used all the remaining Cultivation enhancement entries and faint spiritual Qi entries!

Instantly, a surge of pure energy poured into his body.

Wei Zhou quickly sat cross-legged and began to Cultivate the Ancient Yuan Art, absorbing this energy.

He guided this energy with his will, letting it flow into the Meridians and acupoints throughout his body, circulating through all the channels, completing a minor circulation, and finally a major circulation.

This repeated again and again, and when he reached the 45th major circulation, a "boom" sounded within his body.

The barrier of Qi Refinement Stage 7 shattered in response, and its momentum did not diminish. It charged straight towards the barrier of Qi Refinement Stage 8, but ultimately failed to break through, stopping at Qi Refinement Stage 7 Perfection.

The remaining energy was not wasted; Wei Zhou used his will to guide this energy into his Physical Body, tempering it.

After a long while, he exhaled a long breath of stale Qi, feeling refreshed.

Feeling his body filled with power, Wei Zhou felt incredibly inflated and arrogant at this moment.

Suddenly, he suppressed these thoughts.

After all, people who are arrogant without strength or influence usually die the fastest!

He still adhered to the principle of being as cautious as possible.

After consolidating his Cultivation, Wei Zhou felt no joy from the Breakthrough, but rather a wave of worry.

As a Cultivator at Qi Refinement Stage 4, his Cultivation had skyrocketed to Qi Refinement Stage 7 Perfection in a single day, which was clearly abnormal.

If it attracted the covetousness of powerful individuals, he wouldn't even know how he died.

If he couldn't think of a solution, he simply wouldn't think about it! Things would work themselves out.

He simply cast aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep!

......

The next day, at Chen Shi (7-9 AM).

A ray of dappled sunlight shone into Wei Zhou's bedroom, directly onto his face.

He groggily tried to open his eyes, but was instantly blinded and closed them again.

He turned over, slowly opened his heavy eyelids, rubbed his eyeballs hard, and stretched his body.

He quickly sat up from the bed, put on his clothes, opened the door, and walked out.

As he stepped out of the bedroom, a fragrant aroma greeted him.

Wei Zhou followed the scent to the kitchen, where he saw Li Yawei, in a green dress, holding a spatula and quickly stir-frying a dish.

Soon, four dishes were successively served.

Wei Zhou washed up and quickly came to the table, beginning to savor the food.

As he ate, he couldn't help but praise Li Yawei indistinctly, even giving her a thumbs-up.

"It's really delicious! I didn't expect your cooking to be so good!"

Li Yawei watched the young man in front of her continuously put food into his mouth, and a smile couldn't help but bloom on her lips.
