Chapter 135: 135. Torturing others for one’s own amusement

As Granny Suxi’s words fell, Mo Jiuli looked down at her hand only to find a pill recipe had appeared at some point. After scrutinizing the recipe in disbelief, Mo Jiuli’s eyes showed determination, and she looked at Granny Suxi outside with gratitude...

Because the elixir recorded on this recipe was an unheard-of pill called Revenant Pill. As the name suggests, the sole purpose of the Revenant Pill was to alleviate the toxicity of the Devouring Poisonous Insect. The recipe also pointed out that the Revenant Pill couldn’t remove the poisonous insect’s poison, but it was the only pill that could suppress and alleviate it.

After reading the pill recipe, Mo Jiuli decided to refine the pill at any cost. She was only doing it for her beloved daughter.

The Revenant Pill had a very specific effect, so even Mo Jiuli had never heard of it, and its refinement process was very complex. First, it was a grandmaster-level pill that, although not subject to Thunder Tribulation, was very difficult to refine...

Not to mention the exceptionally rare medicinal materials, Mo Jiuli hadn’t even seen some of them. Fortunately, the recipe described them in great detail. After familiarizing herself with the characteristics, attributes, and refining methods of the ingredients, Mo Jiuli’s recipe turned into a meteor and disappeared...

Mo Jiuli wasn’t surprised, as she had already experienced many strange things in this world over the past five years...

She collected her thoughts and looked around. She was now in the thatched cottage she had seen from the outside before, which she initially thought was just Granny Suxi’s pill refining house...

However, the reality was far from it. After the pill recipe disappeared in her hand, the seemingly ordinary cottage transformed. Suddenly, a myriad of medicinal materials sprouted and filled the floor...

After a brief surprise, Mo Jiuli felt the urge to curse. What on earth was going on?

Though the room was filled with medicinal materials needed for the Revenant Pill, Mo Jiuli’s face was turning darker.

It turned out that these sprouted medicinal materials were indeed the herbs needed for the Revenant Pill. However, the gap between these materials was minimal, and they looked incredibly similar to each other. If one wasn’t careful, it was very likely to think they were all the same...

At first, Mo Jiuli was delighted and astonished to see so many medicinal materials. But then she noticed a few herbs she recognized. Upon closer inspection, she realized that the correct herbs were few, and there were hundreds of decoy herbs that looked very similar.

In other words, if she hadn’t noticed and started pill refining directly by picking the wrong herbal material, the consequences would have been disastrous. She would have probably blown up the room in a matter of moments...

So, Mo Jiuli was in a terrible mood. There were originally more than thirty kinds of medicinal materials needed for the Revenant Pill, but now there were hundreds of similar-looking herbs for each of the thirty types.

It meant that she needed to choose the correct plant from among hundreds of similar-looking plants. Recalling Granny Suxi’s words, Mo Jiuli guessed that selecting the right medicinal materials wouldn’t be easy either...

Granny Suxi, are you sure you didn’t come up with this test out of boredom from being here for so long to torture others for your own amusement? Mo Jiuli thought to herself...

Outside, Granny Suxi sensed Mo Jiuli’s thoughts and exhibited an awkward smile. If she admitted it, would Mo Jiuli get angry?

Mo Jiuli took a deep breath and chose one medicinal material she recognized nearby. After careful identification, she found 7 herbs that were real, and the other ones were similar-looking.

After making her choice, Mo Jiuli reached for one of the fake plants and effortlessly plucked it from the ground. Just as she prepared to retract her hand, a mechanical voice echoed within the room: ”One mistake, one correct medicinal material less!”

Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli’s lips curled into a smile. She flicked her fingers, sending the fake medicinal material back from her hand and quickly grabbing the correct one without hesitation, doing all this in the blink of an eye...

Granny Suxi watched Mo Jiuli’s actions with surprise, then broke into a satisfied smile. She knew Mo Jiuli wouldn’t make the wrong choice the first time. Mo Jiuli still had a backup plan and was truly the person she was looking for...

”First medicinal material successfully obtained!” After a while, the mechanical voice sounded again.

Mo Jiuli grinned. Considering Granny Suxi’s previous words, she had guessed that selecting the herbs wouldn’t be simple. Fortunately, she had cleverly tried to pick the wrong material. As expected, the wrong ones were much easier to pick, but choosing the wrong one once caused her to lose one of the right ones. This method was indeed speechless...

As she plucked the correct herb, Mo Jiuli felt the dense dark energy on it, and she would have been unable to retrieve the herb without being prepared...

It seemed that Mo Jiuli would have to work hard in the process of selecting herbs...

As Mo Jiuli had suspected, every correctly picked herb gave her a difficult time. She had to keep circulating the dark energy within her body, and without caution, she wouldn’t be able to pick the herbs. She was confident that if she didn’t store the herbs properly and dropped them, they definitely would become invalidated.

Mo Jiuli dared not to be careless. Focused entirely on selecting herbs, she didn’t notice how much time she spent nor that each picked herb increased her dark energy, making it more useful than months of daily cultivation...

Originally, Mo Jiuli had middle-level Dark Purple strength, but after picking half of the herbs, she unexpectedly broke through to the next level without any resistance...

Lin Yue, Xue Feng, and the Mo Family Ancestor stared dumbfounded at the promotion aura suddenly emanating from inside the barrier, unable to understand what had happened and why a promotion suddenly occurred...
