2439 Advancing to Grand Spiritual Cultivator
When Lady Qiaoqiao heard Commander Fang talking about the gorgeous scenery along the Weixi Corridor, as well as the various snacks vendors sold along the river, her interest was aroused.
When she heard that they would be there just in time for Weixi Corridor’s annual Mantou Festival, she couldn’t help being curious.
“I heard that the Mantou Festival has a long history. Anyone who finds a pill in the mantou they eat can obtain a generous reward.”
“People can eat their own pills that aid digestion while they eat mantou. If you don’t have enough pills, you can even request pill alchemists to make them for you on the spot… until someone finds that pill from the 10 thousand mantou and wins the grand prize.”!!
“Cough.” Commander Fang deadpanned, “This contest is rather dumb, but… a lot of people participate! During last year’s Mantou Festival, someone ate 800 plus mantou. He died the next day.”
Qiao Mu: …
Mo Lian: …
Hahahahaha! Did they have to go so far, such a dunce!?
“Crown Prince Consort, you have to believe it! There are a lot of people who put their lives on the line in this contest.”
“Because the person who wins the grand prize will not only obtain 50 thousand spirit currency, they will also get a lot of precious pills! Last year’s first place got a heaven-rank quality ambergris herb.”
“This humble general heard that that heaven-rank quality ambergris herb is greatly sought after by many pill alchemists.”
“So that person who died from eating too much mantou…” Qiao Mu’s face was stoic, but her twitching mouth betrayed her disbelief.
“It was a pill alchemist from the Pill House!”
Mo Lian: …
Qiao Mu: …
It was hard to imagine that someone would risk their life to enter this mantou-eating contest for an ambergris herb.
Why didn’t they just ascend to the heavens?
“So those digestive pills…”
“The pill alchemists themselves refined them. However, it’s possible that they feel that they don’t have enough during the contest. They can then also request for another pill alchemist to refine some for them, but then they may have to share part of their prize.”
“Then let’s go through the Weixi Corridor.” Qiaoqiao was interested in checking out that group of crazies.
“Okay!” Commander Fang himself didn’t notice that he actually heaved a sigh of relief.
He finally coaxed the crown prince consort into going along the route he charted. This was very good. The journey would be shortened by at least a month!
The emperor had been desperately waiting for their return…
The next day.
The little lady boarded a large boat that Commander Fang had prepared for them. They entered the Weixi River in the direction of Dragon Flame City.
There was river water everywhere. Truthfully speaking, there was not much to see during the first few days.
Since there was still plenty of time, Qiao Mu slunk back into Fish Orchid Planet and summoned the tree seed fragment over. She then absorbed it into her dantian’s star domain.
This was not Qiaoqiao’s first time absorbing a tree seed fragment, so it didn’t create as big a commotion as the first time.
Besides, she had leveled up while absorbing spiritual energy on Fish Orchid Planet.
That was why the people outside simply didn’t know her situation.
It wasn’t until Qiao Mu had spent a day and night on Fish Orchid Planet that she opened her eyes and sensed the power coursing through her body.
After absorbing the tree seed fragment this time, her cultivation jumped from a level-eight minor spiritual cultivator to being an entry-rank level-10 grand spiritual cultivator.
This cultivation speed was already very fast, although her current strength was far from sufficient compared to the disciples of some of the clans in the Divine Province, but that was fine.
Qiao Mu thought she would soon catch up to them.
