Chapter 9

Amidst the astonishment of Li Xiuyuan and Li Shuiyao, Li Xiuxian had already arranged the fifty bottles of Qi Gathering Pills he purchased on the table. Looking at the stunned Xiuyuan and Shuiyao, Li Xiuxian smiled faintly, "What are you still dawdling for? Get to work quickly!"

"Brother, are you sure it's Qi Gathering Pills inside?" Xiuyuan asked.

"Nonsense! Do you think it's candy instead of Qi Gathering Pills? Hurry up and take your share. I have something else for you both!" Li Xiuyuan scolded with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan opened a jade bottle, finding it filled with Qi Gathering Pills, sealed with a bottle stopper. Laughing uncontrollably at the sight of the fifty bottles of Qi Gathering Pills on the table, Li Shuiyao almost pushed Li Xiuyuan when she couldn't contain her surprise! Startled, Li Xiuyuan hurriedly explained, "All of these are Qi Gathering Pills! This many will be enough for our cultivation for a long time!"

"Really!" Li Shuiyao joyfully grabbed a bottle of Qi Gathering Pills.

Li Xiuxian looked at his younger siblings and chuckled, "Take your time; these are all for you. Additionally, there are two magic swords. This Broken Gold Sword is for Xiuyuan, and this Flowing Water Sword is for Shuiyao!" Li Xiuxian took out the Broken Gold Sword and Flowing Water Sword from his storage bag, handing them to Li Xiuyuan and Li Shuiyao.

"Magic swords!" Li Xiuyuan exclaimed. It was no wonder he was so shocked; the price of magical instruments was exorbitant. How could the Li family, struggling even with daily cultivation, possess such rare items? Moreover, two appeared at once!

Li Shuiyao, similarly stunned, held the Flowing Water Sword in her hand. Seeing her siblings in a dazed state, Li Xiuxian couldn't help but laugh, "You two... Take these two bottles of Essence Nurturing Pills as well. They can eliminate impurities from your bodies, clear meridians, and greatly benefit your cultivation!"

Today had already been too shocking for Li Xiuyuan and Li Shuiyao, rendering them almost thoughtless. They didn't even ask how Li Xiuxian obtained these items. When they regained clarity, they found themselves already in their respective rooms, with no recollection of how they got there!

After sending off Xiuyuan and Shuiyao, Li Xiuxian entered the Wanhua Pearl. In that instant, he noticed a significant change inside the Wanhua Pearl. Two more Old Mountain Ginsengs had appeared, totaling three, one around 500 years old and the others around 200 to 300 years old.

Sitting on the grass, Li Xiuxian placed a Essence Nurturing Pill in his mouth. After activating his spiritual power and circulating sixteen major meridians, the medicinal effects of the pill completely permeated Li Xiuxian's body. A layer of pitch-black, foul-smelling liquid oozed out of his body!

Looking at the disgusting substance, Li Xiuxian sighed. No wonder his cultivation progress was so slow; besides his mediocre spiritual roots, his body harbored so many impurities that absorbing spiritual energy was a challenge! Every meditation session with an Essence Nurturing Pill resulted in a substantial amount of impurities. However, with increased frequency, the impurities diminished, and the absorption speed of spiritual energy increased.

Over a month passed in this manner. Li Xiuxian finally purged all impurities from his body. In this month, the number of Old Mountain Ginsengs in the Wanhua Pearl increased to thirty to forty, with the oldest being around 500 years and the youngest around fifty to sixty years. After observing for a month, Li Xiuxian discovered that the Wanhua Pearl ripened the ginsengs to around a thousand years in a single day, with the highest being 500 years. Those initially planted in the Wanhua Pearl remained at 500 years.

With every new ginseng, the black soil area in the Wanhua Pearl expanded significantly. Although the quantity of Old Mountain Ginsengs increased, the area of the black soil remained constant over the past half-month. Despite the additional thirty to forty Old Mountain Ginsengs, Li Xiuxian stored them in a jade box and placed them in the storage bag. After the previous experience, Li Xiuxian wouldn't easily sell these high-aged ginsengs, especially the 500-year-old ones. Revealing such treasures could bring calamity to the Li family if other cultivators discovered them!

Li Xiuxian had a complete understanding of the situation in the entire Li family with his divine sense. After cultivating in the Wanhua Pearl for a month, his cultivation hadn't advanced much, but his divine sense had increased significantly. Now, he could easily reach ten zhang away from his body. In Xiuyuan's room, spiritual energy surged out, a sign of a breakthrough!

Li Xiuyuan had excellent spiritual roots, coupled with the assistance of Essence Nurturing Pills and a large number of Qi Gathering Pills, making his breakthrough inevitable.

Similarly, Li Shuiyao experienced the same situation. Both siblings breaking through simultaneously brought great satisfaction to Li Xiuxian.

After summoning all the household servants, Li Xiuxian distributed large amounts of gold and silver and dismissed them to return home. With the Li family on the verge of officially entering the cultivation world, these ordinary people would only be a burden. Once everything was done, Li Xiuxian took out two 200-year-old ginsengs and began brewing them in water.

"Breakthrough!" Li Xiuxian smiled faintly.

"Big brother, I finally broke through!" Li Xiuyuan kicked open the door and laughed heartily.

"I know, wait for Shuiyao. I have something to tell you both!" Li Xiuyuan nodded.

"Brother Xiuxian, Brother Xiuyuan, I broke through too!" Li Shuiyao happily said.

Li Xiuxian nodded, pointing to two bowls of ginseng soup, "Drink it down."

"This... is it ginseng or r****h?" Li Xiuxian pointed to the ginseng resembling radishes and asked.

"These are 200-year-old ginsengs. After the Essence Nurturing Pills' body purification, your bodies have almost no impurities. If you consume ordinary grains and cereals, impurities will accumulate again. So from now on, you can only drink ginseng soup every day!" Li Xiuxian calmly explained.

"Every day!" Li Shuiyao and Li Xiuyuan exclaimed.

"Yes, every day. Even if you want to eat something worldly, you won't have the chance. I have already dismissed all the servants and thrown away all the food!" Li Xiuxian chuckled.

"Brother, you're being too harsh!" Li Xiuyuan said with a bitter face.

"It's for your own good. Drink up!" Li Xiuxian said.

"Oh!" Li Xiuyuan reluctantly drank a large bowl of ginseng soup. Li Shuiyao followed suit. Fortunately, they were cultivators, and if an ordinary person drank soup made from a hundred-year-old ginseng, they would have already vomited blood and died!

"How many Qi Gathering Pills do you have left?" Li Xiuxian asked.

"I still have twelve bottles!" Xiuyuan said.

"I have fifteen bottles!"

"It should be enough for both of you for a month. Now focus on breaking through. Currently, Xiuyuan, you have the highest cultivation in the Li family, so I'll leave it temporarily in your hands!"

"Leave it to me? Brother, are you leaving?" Li Xiuyuan was stunned.
