Meng Qi’s eyelashes were very long. At a closer distance, the little white tiger could clearly see his fluffy figure reflected on her eyes. He even felt his breath touching the girl’s eyelashes.
“Looks like…” Meng Qi focused her eyes and muttered: “The other injuries in your body aren’t getting worse.” She sighed in relief and straightened her body. Once again, she stroked the cute ears on Xiao Qi’s head.
So comfy ah~
Meng Qi couldn’t help but moved her fingers gently. She looked at Xiao Qi. The little guy was lying on the bed, staring blankly. Thinking of the scene she saw in the flame curtain showed by Chu Tianfeng, if the white-robed man who looked like her master was really the white tiger’s sovereign, then all members of their clan must be very cute as a cub.
After Xiao Qi was healed, he would left. After that, should she raise a normal white tiger as her spirit beast? Meng Qi seriously pondered.
“Alright.” Meng Qi stroked the little tiger’s head for the last time. She took out a new batch of ointment and gently applied it to Xiao Qi’s wounded paw. She waited until the wound completely absorbed the medicine. Finally, the green ointment became almost transparent. Only then did she put his paw back on the bamboo bed: “Although I have no way to stop the bleeding completely, this medicine still seems to be a little bit effective.”
Meng Qi gently rubbed Xiao Qi’s fluffy wrist: “I’m going to buy the jackdaw grass today. If there is a chance, I will also buy some medicinal ingredients that may be useful.”
After she said that, Meng Qi bent her waist slightly and stared into Xiao Qi’s blue eyes. The little guy has hidden the Big Dipper’s shadow in his eyes and now looked similar to a cub of ordinary white tiger spirit beasts, except for his eye color that was a little bit lighter: “Have a good rest.”
Meng Qi then stood up. She took out some powdered substance and drew a few simple arrays inside the room. After she finished, she gripped the jade slip and entered Beyond The Heaven.
This was her second time entering this mysterious and grand space, so Meng Qi had been familiarized herself to some degree. She went straight to Shencao Pavilion’s pharmacy. When the disciple who managed the shop saw her figure, he immediately greeted Meng Qi enthusiastically: “Are you going to buy the jackdaw grass?”
“Yes.” Meng Qi took out her nameplate. “I want one strand.”
“Alright.” The disciple nodded. He took another box, put the jackdaw grass in it, and then asked Meng Qi to imprint her spiritual sense.

“When can I received it?” Meng Qi asked. Yesterday, she had seen other people doing the same procedure. At that time, she was the seller, but today she was a buyer. She felt a little novelty.
“It should take about two to three days.” The disciple said: “Our Shencao Pavilion has disciples specially tasked to send the sold items to Beyond The Heaven’s relay station. Fellow Daoist will receive a message from the station when the item arrived.”
“Thank you very much.” Meng Qi guessed that the spiritual sense she imprinted also has the function of sending messages. Staff at Beyond The Heaven relay stations might rely on it to contact buyers.
Now she had bought the Jackdaw grass, Meng Qi went to find the manager who brought her to see Xiang Linmo yesterday.
“Fellow Daoist!” The man obviously remembered Meng Qi and immediately greeted her with a broad smile, “What is your business today?”
“Another pill.” Meng Qi smiled slightly.
“Okay.” Without further question, the man led her towards the teleportation array.
“Third young miss Xue has instructed, if Fellow Daoist comes again in the future, you can directly come to see her.”
Xue Jinwen?
“Third young miss Xue specially sent that message yesterday to all the staff. Any of us will be able to guide you to her place.”
“Okay.”
The man stopped talking. The teleportation array was activated. At the next second, Meng Qi found herself appeared in a courtyard similar to the one she had visited yesterday. However, Xue Jinwen’s courtyard was much larger than Xiang Linmo’s and full of natural fragrance.
As soon as Meng Qi stepped into the yard, she noticed the fragrance of bamboo leaves. She turned to look to the left, where a small piece of green bamboo was planted. Stone benches were placed under the bamboo leaves, presenting an exquisite atmosphere. The building itself was also bigger than Xiang Linmo’s residence.
Seeing Meng Qi looked around curiously, the manager who brought her quickly explained: “The house and courtyards here are all owned by Beyond The Heaven. But the higher rank is an appraiser, the better house they can choose.” With a smile, he added: “If you visit the Heaven Auction House, the courtyards there look like a landscape garden and are very beautiful.”
“I see.” Meng Qi nodded. “Is this the rule set by the owner?”
“Yes.” He answered. “The owner once said that the higher is someone’s skill, the better is the treatment they should get.”
“I see.” Meng Qi nodded.
“Therefore, there are many cultivators from all over the Three Thousand World who are willing to work here.”

“I see.” Meng Qi nodded again. This actually added another curiosity: did the people who work here also use the same jade slip, like herself? In other words, did they know the place where Beyond The Heaven was actually located?
But she did not continue to ask, and simply watched the manager stepped forward to knock on Xue Jinwen’s door.
“Please come in.” The woman’s voice, so pleasant to heard and tinged with a bit laziness, came from across the door.
The manager opened the door and smiled: “Third miss Xue, the Fellow Daoist from yesterday is visiting again.”
“Oh?!” The voice, which sounded so lazy just now, suddenly became energetic. Before Meng Qi reacted, Xue Jinwen had already appeared in front of her, wearing a red robe.
“Older sister already waiting for you to come again. That Qingfeng pill from yesterday…gee…” Xue Jinwen sighed while sizing Meng Qi up and down. Her raven black long hair was coiled into a sloppy bun and slanted on her shoulders. The older woman was charming and exquisite. With a light smile, she praised: “You really have a smart brain.”
Meng Qi smiled back slightly. She wasn’t surprised by Xue Jinwen’s reaction. Changed to herself, if Meng Qi saw such a pill for the first time, wouldn’t be able to bring it back and research it immediately.
If this woman was really a disciple from the Western Realm’s great sect, there were many ways to get the pill as soon as possible. What’s more, she was still a member of the Profound auction house and worked for Beyond The Heaven, so she must have her own channel.
“You are here today, is there any business to do? I heard that Xiang Linmo said you wanted a jackdaw grass? There are many Northern Realm guys in this place. They opened quite a few shops in Beyond The Heaven. You may find one at such a pharmacy.”
“I have already bought it.” Meng Qi said. “I saw a record about jackdaw grass in the book, and wanted to do some research by myself.”
Xue Jinwen’s smile didn’t decrease: “Then you come to find me today, is it to…”
Meng Qixian moved her hand and took out a porcelain bottle from the storage bracelet, containing the Beiming pills that she had just refined today.
Xue Jinwen reached out and took the bottle from her. “Beiming pill?” She was a little surprised.
“Uh… second realm Beiming pill…” Xue Jinwen didn’t disdain its low realm. After all, the Beiming pill was a versatile medicine that could be used by all cultivators from the Qi Condensation stage to the Great Ascension stage. Many medical cultivators produced it. However, everyone generally refined the Beiming pill of the realm that matched their medical cultivation level. After all, the efficacy of this pill was directly tied to its realm.
For the second realm, it would be effective for the Foundation Establishment stage. Xue Jinwen couldn’t even remember the last time she ever needed such a low-level medicine. Those who could enter Beyond The Heaven generally wouldn’t have low cultivation.
She examined the pill on her palm. It was blue like a sea. Then she turned to look at Meng Qi. This girl brought first realm Qingfeng pills yesterday, and today it was the second realm Beiming pill… It was as if she was still either at the Qi Condensation or Foundation Establishment stage.
This idea made Xue Jinwen laughed at herself. How could a person who could enter Beyond The Heaven still at the Qi Condensation stage?! Even Golden Core cultivators were rare enough.
“This Beiming pill…huh?” After a little examination, she immediately discovered the difference of this Beiming pill. “Eh-” Xue Jinwen inhaled sharply, and looked up at Meng Qi in disbelief. “You put a Beiming spell in it?”
“Yes.” Meng Qi nodded.
“What’s the effect?” Xue Jinwen asked again. She actually had a vague guess, but still eagerly waited for Meng Qi’s answer: “It can instantly recover a quarter of spiritual aura of a cultivator at the same level, and then slowly recover another quarter within an incense stick of time.”
“Ah-” Xue Jinwen lifted up the blue pills in her hand highly and examined it under the sunlight: “Qingfeng pill with Qingfeng spell, although it was such a clever method, unless the realm is also improved into fifth or sixth, won’t be too useful. However, Beiming pill with Beiming spell, that can also instantly recover the aura…aaah!” Xue Jinwen yelled softly: “Of course those medical sects will rush to buy and bring it back for their own research. I’m afraid that even the large sects will also come to join the fray! And they certainly are willing to buy at a high price and in large quantities. Little sister, if you refine this Beiming pills at the realm of third to fifth, then…”
Xue Jinwen narrowed her eyes and turned to look at Meng Qi. The corners of her eyes rose slightly, and the woman looked even more charming: “If in the past you still lack spirit stones, you will never have to be in the future!”
“Let’s go.” She returned the porcelain bottle to Meng Qi. “This time, let’s put it into the auction floor.”
“Thank you, sister.” Meng Qi smiled sweetly, “But at this moment, I can only refine a second realm Beiming pill.”
