Under the starry sky, by the hot spring…
A small carpet of grass was laid on the ground, surrounded by green grass.
Ling Yi lay there with his hands behind his head, facing the vast starry sky.
This starry sky was exactly the same as the starry sky outside. They could see the outside world.
The only connection between the space and the outside world was the door that they walked in. Everyone could only go in and out from that entrance.
The cool night wind blew on his body, and he still felt hot on this hot summer night.
"Should I get a temperature adjustment device..."
Just as he was thinking, a splashing sound came from the hot spring beside him. Someone got up from the spring.
Ling Yi turned his head and saw Lin Shurou climbing up. She was walking towards him with light steps.
"I just received news from my aunt. She's here to visit us."
"Ah..."
"Should I open the door for her? Do you want to bring her in?"
"As you wish."
Hearing this, Lin Shurou nodded slightly, turned around, and flew into the distance.
'That's strange. What's she doing here at this time?' Ling Yi was confused.
After a while, Lin Shurou brought Lin Xian over.
When the latter walked to the carpet, her eyes were still scanning the surroundings, and she made a clicking sound.
"I didn't expect you guys to be so rich. You guys decorated this place like a Fairyland."
"I opened a shop before. Have you forgotten?"
"Hehe." Lin Xian chuckled.
Instead of walking on the carpet, she pulled over a wooden chair and sat down.
Dressed in a white top and blue jeans, she looked like an ordinary urban beauty. Other than her beauty, it was hard to see anything special about her.
"What's the matter? If it's the Nest God, I already know."
"Mm... Other than that, there was also the Beast King Challenge that was going to take place tomorrow... Do you plan to participate?"
"Yes,"
Seeing Ling Yi's confirmation, Lin Xian heaved a sigh of relief and continued, "The Challenger League is divided into single and pair challenges. For a pair challenge... I wonder if you have a partner?"
"I'm not... You want to team up with me?" Ling Yi raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, I have an S-grade item that I want to get. It's not like I can challenge myself alone..."
The Beast King Challenge was an event where players challenged Beast Kings.
As long as one defeated the Beast King alone or two Beast Kings together, they could get the [Self-Choice S-Grade Item].
If they could not defeat the Beast King, other rewards would be given according to the damage dealt to the target and the duration of the battle.
"Mm..."
While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a "Ping" sound.
He opened the forum page and saw that Nangong Li had sent him a message.
[Vermillion Bird: Are you home? There's something I need to talk to you about.]
[01:... I'm home.]
He suspected that Nangong Li's goal was similar to Lin Xian's.
Therefore, he didn't rush to make a decision, but asked Yunji to bring her over.
In just ten seconds, Nangong Li also appeared.
"Wow!"
Her exquisite scarlet eyes couldn't help but sweep the surroundings as she muttered in shock, "This place is so beautiful~"
"The renovation must have cost a lot, huh?" She looked at Ling Yi.
"It's nothing, just a few tens of millions."
"... I feel like you're just acting cool."
"Hahaha."
Just as Ling Yi was laughing at her, Nangong Li suddenly turned to look at Lin Xian, who was staring at her.
She was bewildered, "Lin... Lin Xian? What are you doing here?"
"I'm Shurou's aunt."
"Oh,"
When Nangong Li heard her say that, she understood that it was one of her own.
She didn't pay any more attention to her and turned to Ling Yi to get down to business. "I'm here this time mainly to talk about your pharmaceutical ability."
"Mm... Huh?"
Ling Yi was stunned for a moment before he smiled. "I thought you were here for the challenge between the Nest God and the Beast King."
Nangong Li shook her head, 'Immortal Lin's information is much faster than mine…'
"The Challenger League... Wen Yue has already come to find me for that"
"Oh..."
After he killed Aslan nine times, Shenxia Azure Dragon Emissary Wen Yue became the first in the regional ranking between 80 and 89.
Ling Yi had heard of this fellow before. It was said that he was the person in charge of the genius Camp in Shentian. He often brought those "geniuses" to mystic realms all over the country to train.
"By the way, what did you mean by making medicine?"
"Last time, after we gave you the materials, you made so many attribute pills at once. Thus, we guessed that you have the means to create a large number of pills and wanted to find you to fuse a batch."
Seeing that Ling Yi's expression was normal and didn't show any obvious signs of resistance, she sat cross-legged on the grass and continued, "We have more than four million Divine Union members across the country. They are all active on the front line to protect the people. They all need the attribute pills."
"Therefore, we plan to get ten million E-grade and D-grade five pills each."
Upon hearing this,
Ling Yi raised his eyebrows.
"That many?!" He exclaimed.
"Right, we still need to keep some in reserve."
"Where are the materials?"
"We will sell you the materials."
"... Alright then."
Ling Yi, who was still lying on the carpet and looking at the stars, replied, "Then I'll do it tomorrow when I'm free."
After receiving his confirmation, Nangong Li heaved a sigh of relief.
"Then my mission is done."
She stood up and turned around to leave.
However, when she saw the sparkling dust on the wide hot spring, she found it difficult to move.
Seeing that there was a mini rockery in the middle of the hot spring, Nangong Li pursed her lips. She struggled in her heart for a while before she took a step and walked towards the wooden door.
She turned back three times with every step, looking reluctant to part.
Seeing this, Yunji swam to the wall of the spring, waved her hand, and shouted, "Li, don't you want to come in and soak with us? It's very comfortable."
Nangong Li hesitated for a moment, but she still waved her hand with her back facing them and quickened her pace.
After she left, Ling Yi and Lin Xian continued their conversation.
"Alright, let's form a team then."
"Yes."
"Okay," Lin Xian replied, "Then I'll be staying here for the next three hours."
"It's not three hours, it's six hours,"
"What?"
Ling Yi pointed at the stone pillar on the fake mountain and said, "A permanent pillar of time."
"Permanent? That's not right! From what I know, even the first player to reach the 10th floor would only get a time pillar that lasts for 50 hours!" Lin Xian exclaimed.
Ling Yi smiled but didn't explain.
She finally sighed. "You're 01. It's normal for you to have so many unexplainable magical things."
She got up and walked towards the hot spring, "In that case, I'll take a short break in the hot spring."
"You guys aren't planning to do that later, right?" She looked at him.
The latter shook his head. "Don't worry. I just want to have a good sleep. I won't do anything.
"Alright, I'm going to the rockery. Don't come over."
Ling Yi didn't reply. He only yawned and waved at her.
