Chapter 56: 39

Pressed for Time

After listening to Ke Xin’s explanation of the rules, Dong Xi finally understood what was going on. If she was not mistaken, the disciple that Elder Lingxu was looking for was one with a good foundation and could refine pills immediately. In Dong Xi’s previous life, she had just taken the college entrance examination and was good at rote memorization. Dong Xi immediately felt more confident. It was just the attributes of medicinal herbs, there was no problem at all.

“When does the test start? How much time do we have to prepare?”

There was nothing to hide. This would be common knowledge very soon anyway. Besides, if Dong Xi were to enter the inner sect, she would definitely not forget about her. If she were to enter the inner sect, she would also not forget Dong Xi. The two of them would help each other and grow together.

“There are still three and a half months.”

When Dong Xi heard this, she was slightly stunned. It was quick. Time was tight, but it was enough. The two of them went to collect this month’s benefits. Dong Xi immediately returned the four spirit stones she owed Ke Xin and brought her to the sect’s Library Pavilion. As long as the disciples reached the first level of Qi Refinement, they could read and borrow books in the Library Pavilion. The Alchemy Sect’s Library Pavilion had no lack of books about medicinal herbs.

At first, Ke Xin did not know where Dong Xi was pulling her to. However, when she got a clear idea of the direction, she was a little surprised. They should be going back to cultivate or doing something else, right? Why were they walking here? Moreover, it seemed that the two of them could not get in, right? They would be beaten up if they forced their way in.

Ke Xin said nervously, “D-D-Dong Xi, what are we going to the Library Pavilion for? We can’t get in.”

Dong Xi did not stop even after Ke Xin said that. Ke Xin immediately had a guess. Could it be that Dong Xi had already broken through given how confident she was? This was too fast. Was closed-door cultivation really that useful? When I return, I’m going to go into seclusion and break through as soon as possible.

Ke Xin asked exaggeratedly as she looked at Dong Xi, “Don’t tell me you’ve already reached the first level of the Qi Refinement stage?”

At this moment, Dong Xi let go of Ke Xin’s hand. She tidied up her clothes and nodded very calmly. Ke Xin’s eyes widened in shock. Dong Xi had really reached the first level of Qi Refinement. Their aptitudes were about the same. She had only guided Qi into her body, and now she was already at the first level of Qi Refinement?

Ke Xin had the thought of getting to the bottom of things and immediately said, “How did you do it so quickly? You’re too fast. Only those geniuses are this fast, right?”

Dong Xi shrugged her shoulders. There was nothing to hide. Besides, geniuses were better than this. Chi Yan from the inner sect had reached the second level in eight days. That was a godly speed. Dong Xi’s speed was nothing compared to Chi Yan’s. In a race, she could not even see the backlights of his car.

Dong Xi said in a very flat tone, “Sister, we’re on the same side, there’s no need to lie. Chi Yan from the inner sect reached the second level in eight days. I didn’t sleep for a whole month to reach this level. In comparison, my speed is like that of a snail.”

Ke Xin fell silent at the mention of Chi Yan. Some people were born as geniuses, while others could only hear the legends of geniuses. Perhaps in a few years, those with poor aptitudes like her would not even be able to hear the legends of Chi Yan. Chi Yan might have already Ascended, so there would naturally be no more legends.

Dong Xi said indifferently, “Come, let’s go in and take out two books of information.”

Ke Xin was suddenly embarrassed. In the past month, she had not studied. Instead, she had been eating melon seeds and gossiping with others on the jade slip when she had nothing to do. She had not put much effort into her cultivation. Otherwise, she would not have been so behind in cultivation, and still stuck before the first level of Qi Refinement.

Ke Xin lowered her head and said to Dong Xi in embarrassment, “I-I haven’t reached the first level of the Qi Refinement stage. I can’t go in.”

When Dong Xi heard this, she could naturally guess what Ke Xin had been doing over the past month. Everyone had their own way of living, and there was nothing she could do about it. Since Dong Xi had received news from Ke Xin, she naturally had to repay her. Moreover, Ke Xin treated her so well.

Dong Xi looked at Ke Xin with a natural expression as she spoke calmly. “It’s okay, wait for me. I’ll go in and get one for you.”

Ke Xin laughed when she heard this. They were really good sisters. She was still helping her at a time like this. If it were someone else, they would probably only mock her ruthlessly. Why would they help her get some reference materials? Ke Xin did not have to worry about anything now. Dong Xi definitely would not take a random book to prank her.

Ke Xin said gratefully, “Then I shall accept. Words can’t express my gratitude for your great kindness.”
