Chapter 271

Fu Chaoqing lowered his head and sorted through the medicinal pills he had just refined.

"The barrier has already begun to loosen. It won't be long."

Li Zi looked up at him. "Senior Brother, why don't you go into seclusion too?"

Fu Chaoqing waved a hand. "My talent for cultivation is limited. Even tens of thousands of years wouldn't be enough for me to break through. I don't have ambitions that grand, either. I'm content to provide medicinal pills for the sect's disciples."

Li Zi said, "What about an Immortal-Grade Pill Formula?"

Fu Chaoqing's eyes slowly widened.

Immortal-grade?

That was a pill formula beyond anything he had dared imagine.

In the entire Cultivation World, ninth-grade pill formulas existed only in the Medicine King Sect.

And now his little junior sister was talking about an immortal-grade one!

An extraordinary light burst from his eyes. "An immortal-grade formula is what every alchemist longs for. It's just a pity that no Immortal-Grade Pill Formula exists anywhere under heaven."

Li Zi sat on a stool, swinging her legs. "That's not necessarily true. I know a place where an Immortal-Grade Pill Formula lies hidden—in the Ancient Ruins."

If anyone else had said that, Fu Chaoqing would have thought they were toying with him.

But the person before him was Li Zi.

That mysterious system of hers knew everything.

"Where?" Fu Chaoqing's mouth had gone dry.

Li Zi popped another sweet-and-sour piece of preserved fruit into her mouth.

"If you go alone, Senior Brother, it'll probably be dangerous. Why don't you find a few people to help? I'll lead you there."

Fu Chaoqing naturally chose to ask a few of his fellow disciples to accompany him.

Ji Zheng and Zhu Min were both away, and Fu Ruolan's condition was dangerous.

That left only Bao Yuanwu and
