Chapter 1424 A Beautiful Smile

"Ah Qing, you and Qingmei go to the market again and buy me some rare spiritual medicines."

Lin Mu said with a smile.

"Here is the prescription."

While speaking, Lin Mu handed a jade slip to the green fox demon.

The green fox demon took the jade slip, looked at it, and couldn't help saying, "These spiritual medicines are probably hard to buy. They are basically hundreds of years old."

"It's really not easy."

Lin Mu certainly knew that even spiritual medicines that are hundreds of years old are not so easy to buy in such a small world.

Fortunately, he is now just trying to break through the shackles of the Jindan stage in his spiritual consciousness realm and let Xiao Qingmei's spiritual consciousness be promoted to the Jindan stage. The spiritual medicines he needs are just a little older and are not too rare.

"Try to buy them for me as much as you can. You must sell them no matter what the price."

As Lin Mu said this, he began to take out spiritual stones, low-grade spiritual stones, and medium-grade spiritual stones. In an instant, he took out hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones!

The green fox demon was completely stunned by such expenses.

She didn't know when Lin Mu secretly mined so many spiritual stones from the spiritual vein.

"What grade is this spiritual vein?"

The green fox demon was shocked, "It actually mined so many spiritual stones."

"The spiritual vein is ordinary, but I mined almost all the finished products in the spiritual vein."

Lin Mu smiled and said, "The remaining semi-finished products will probably take a long time to transform into real spiritual stones."

"Go buy these spiritual medicines. After a while, we will leave here."

Lin Mu said lightly.

"Leave here?"

The green fox demon was stunned.

They came here not long ago. They finally found a place to live and a stable place. Why do they have to leave so soon?

"I want to condense the golden elixir. The spiritual energy here is still relatively thin. It is quite difficult to condense the golden elixir here."

Lin Mu said, "At the same time, your cultivation progress is also slowing down. Going to a place with richer spiritual energy, you can cultivate faster."

"The better the cave paradise, the stronger the monsters will be."

The blue fox demon remained sober and did not feel any joy because of Lin Mu's words. "This is bound to be another bloody battle!"

"There is nothing we can do about it."

Lin Mu said, "Cultivation is like this, fighting against the sky, fighting against people, fighting against beasts, and fighting against all those who are our enemies. You may not like fighting, but you can't escape!"

"We can only strengthen ourselves."

Lin Mu said, "Fortunately, even if there is a battle, we can choose to be active or passive. If we are passive, it is more dangerous and difficult to guard against; and if we are active, we can make a lot of preparations in advance, and the chances of winning are naturally much greater."

Everything is prepared, and if not prepared, it will be abandoned.

This is Lin Mu's experience.

"I understand."

The green fox demon quickly put hundreds of thousands of spirit stones into the storage bag and went to find Xiao Qingmei who was practicing swordsmanship.

"Qingmei, if you buy the spirit medicine this time, I will let you go back to visit your mother. You can go for a month!"

Lin Mu smiled at Xiao Qingmei.

"Really?"

Xiao Qingmei was pleasantly surprised.

Immediately, she remembered the agreement with Lin Mu and said sadly, "But I still couldn't last three moves under your hands. I always feel that you are pitying me."

"Master, I want to win such an opportunity with my efforts, not your pity."

Xiao Qingmei said this, and Lin Mu was stunned.

He thought Xiao Qingmei would cheer when she heard the news.

It seems that he can't fully figure out Xiao Qingmei's thoughts.

A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea, unpredictable.

Even a girl is the same.

Looking at Xiao Qingmei, who was now righteous and upright, Lin Mu was really a little suspicious. Was the person who had been clamoring to go back to visit her mother the same person as Xiao Qingmei now?

But looking at Xiao Qingmei's expression, she was very serious, and it seemed that she cared about this matter very much.

Xiao Qingmei thought that Lin Mu was pitying her.

Lin Mu immediately guessed that Xiao Qingmei was in her teenage years, and her mind was delicate and sensitive. Maybe his behavior hurt Xiao Qingmei's self-esteem.

"Qingmei, remember, I will never have mercy on you."

Lin Mu said seriously, "The word pity is very condescending, like a reward, which is really uncomfortable. A real man will not bend for a few grains of rice, even if he is a beggar, he will not eat food given out of pity. Obviously, I can't do this to you."

"Then why do you break your promise?"

Xiao Qingmei asked relentlessly.

"I promised you that you would last three rounds in my hands."

Lin Mu said, "The original intention of this agreement is not the specific moves like three moves. The deeper meaning behind it is a kind of encouragement. I want you to work hard to improve and don't slack off."

"In fact, you have already met my expectations. I am very satisfied and proud that you can perform seven consecutive sword skills."

Lin Mu smiled and said.

"But I didn't do it."

Xiao Qingmei started to be serious.

Mother Lin was helpless.

Xiao Qingmei was still too naive.

Lin Mu was really afraid that she would regret it after knowing the truth.

According to Xiao Qingmei's current strength, the seven consecutive sword skills were just forcing Lin Mu to use sword skills.

If Lin Mu used the consecutive sword skills, Xiao Qingmei would definitely need to use a higher level of sword attainment, but if she practiced for another half a year, I am afraid that her sword attainment would only be able to reach the nine consecutive sword skills and touch the threshold of sword intent.

She still couldn't be Lin Mu's opponent.

The three moves that Lin Mu mentioned were really just a gimmick, and it was not the original intention.

In fact, when masters fight, the winner is decided in an instant.

Even if the cultivation level is one level higher than his own, Lin Mu can kill him instantly before!

The strength is never determined by the number of moves.

If the strength is not comparable, even if she can survive three moves, what can it do?

However, Lin Mu could not explain these truths to Xiao Qingmei clearly.

Otherwise, if she really gets serious, I am afraid that even if she works hard for another two years, she will not be able to survive three rounds in Lin Mu's hands.

Lin Mu's next plan is to move and condense the golden elixir.

Xiao Qingmei also wants to make the final effort to prepare for the condensation of the golden elixir. Lin Mu hopes that she can go back to visit her mother and practice with peace of mind when she comes back.

So that she will not always worry about this matter.

Xiao Qingmei is so serious, Lin Mu has to decide to deliberately let her survive three moves.

But if they compete now, Xiao Qingmei will definitely be able to see his intention.

Lin Mu had to smile and say, "If you insist, I don't object. Then wait until you buy the elixir and come back, and then we will continue to compete."

Xiao Qingmei nodded with satisfaction.

"You have a lot of spiritual stones this time, so be as restrained as possible and don't show off your wealth."

Lin Mu urged, "Buy as many spiritual medicines as possible on the prescription."

The green fox demon nodded seriously, and then flew away with Xiao Qingmei.

Lin Mu was also full of expectations for their actions this time.

After six months of tempering, his spiritual power is now extremely condensed.

As long as he can refine another elixir to improve his spiritual consciousness, if he can promote his spiritual consciousness to the Nascent Soul stage, he will directly condense the golden elixir!

If he can't promote to the Nascent Soul stage, he will also condense the golden elixir!

Lin Mu will pursue the spiritual consciousness surpassing his own two realms, but he will not force it.

If he really can't do it, he will accept it.

This time, the main thing is to refine the elixir to help Xiao Qingmei and let her spiritual consciousness advance to the Golden Core stage. This is the most important thing!

Five days later, the green fox demon and Xiao Qingmei returned.

Lin Mu saw that they all looked very tired.

Obviously, this trip was not easy for them.

"How?"

Lin Mu asked.

"Finally, we have gathered all the herbs."

The green fox demon said with relief, "We went to several stores, but we were still short of a spiritual medicine. Later, we went to an auction and bought a few plants."

Xiao Qingmei said, "It was quite interesting to participate in the auction. There was an alchemist who was bidding with us, but after I offered a higher price, he just gave up."

"How many spiritual stones are left?"

Lin Mu asked with a smile.

According to his estimate, the spiritual stones he gave Xiao Qingmei to buy these spiritual herbs would cost at most half.

"It's all spent."

Xiao Qingmei waved her hand and said, "It seems that there are only a few dozen low-grade spiritual stones left."

Lin Mu was speechless when he heard this.

Xiao Qingmei really didn't know how precious spiritual stones were. She was too wasteful and too wasteful!

Seeing Xiao Qingmei's beaming face, it seemed that she was really happy.

Lin Mu also knew that it was a very refreshing feeling to compete with others and finally have no choice but to bid against them.

It was normal for Xiao Qingmei to feel this way when she attended the auction for the first time, especially since she still had so many spirit stones to squander.

But Lin Mu guessed that Xiao Qingmei was most likely cheated.

In general auctions, there are always some insidious cultivators who deliberately raise the price, thinking that if I can't get it, you can't get it easily, so you have to spend several times more to buy these treasures.

Some are even more insidious, and they secretly raise the price of the treasures they auctioned.

It is very likely that Xiao Qingmei fell into someone else's trap without knowing it.

But seeing that Xiao Qingmei was very happy, Lin Mu couldn't bear to point it out.

It was rare for her to be so happy, even if it cost some unjust spirit stones, Lin Mu would accept it!

A beautiful woman's smile is worth a thousand gold.

Xiao Qingmei has been happy all the way until now, and these spirit stones are worth spending!

The green fox demon took out the spiritual medicine from the storage bag and gave it to Lin Mu.

Lin Mu checked it and found that there were not a few plants left, and he was extremely satisfied.

He immediately began to prepare to refine the elixir.

He was very careful to refine such a rare elixir.

After a day, he was very tired.

When he took some time to rest, Xiao Qingmei asked him to spar with her again.

Half because of fatigue and half because of deliberate letting go, Lin Mu accidentally defeated Xiao Qingmei in the fourth round.

"I have survived three rounds!"

Xiao Qingmei said excitedly.

The next morning, she set out on the road home.
