Even though Xiao Ziji's meridians were opened, what Jun Changxiao didn't understand was, was it because of the poison that caused his realm to regress, causing him to be unable to gather spirit energy?
The System said: "From the poisonous gas just now, it should be caused by poison."
Jun Changxiao rubbed his chin: "It's understandable that the poison would cause his realm to regress, but how could a supreme grade spirit root regress?"
"If the poison in his body can suppress his spirit root, now that it has been removed, he should have recovered, not just opened four meridians."
He rubbed his temples: "Yuan Fang, what do you think about this?"
The System: "…"
Jun Changxiao said: "I'm asking you, say something."
The System then realized that 'Yuan Fang' was referring to itself, so it said: "Falling Star Continent is a mysterious world, maybe there are poisons that can suppress cultivation and spirit root."
"The poison is removed, but why didn't his spirit root and cultivation recover?" Jun Changxiao asked.
The System was silent for a while, then said: "Maybe there's more than one type of poison in his body. What the host removed was only the poison that suppressed his cultivation, but there's also the poison that suppressed his spirit root."
"That's possible …"
Jun Changxiao was silent.
If that's the case, who would be so vicious as to use two types of poison to destroy Xiao Ziji, who was supposed to be a genius?
"The Xiao family's elder?"
Jun Changxiao thought of the Xiao family's head elder who was filled with killing intent towards Xiao Ziji during the sect competition.
"And that group of assassins outside Liyang City, who sent them?"
He held his head, saying: "Damn, I feel like my IQ isn't enough. Yuan Fang, are there any products that can develop brain power?"
The System said: "No."
… …
After Xiao Ziji successfully opened his meridians, he temporarily gave up on spear practice and spent the whole night running Yi Jin Jing, gathering spirit energy around him.
Even though he only had a mortal grade spirit root, and the absorption was far from the supreme grade spirit root, he was satisfied. After all, it was much better than not being able to gather spirit energy.
Spirit energy entered his body, spreading and gathering along his meridians, Xiao Ziji once again found that refreshing feeling of cultivation.
Of course.
He also knew that everything was given to him by the sect leader.
In this life, he was willing to serve the Iron Bone Clan!
"Lily Holy Sect?"
In another disciple's room, Ye Xingchen finished his cultivation and said disdainfully, "Back when I dominated the Falling Star Continent, we were only a fifth-rate sect."
Sigh.
Our Lord Night Thearch is still immersed in the past and unable to come out.
"Hu!"
He exhaled and murmured, "The Taixuan Sutra is truly profound. I've studied it for so long, but I've only comprehended the first layer."
"Fortunately, I have the assistance of the Body Metamorphosis Scripture. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for me to break through to the seventh level of the Channel Opening Realm in such a short period of time."
He really had to thank him properly. Without Yi Jin Jing's 50% meridian opening rate, with Night Emperor's current aptitude, it would have taken him a long time to achieve it.
"I can't just focus on cultivation. I have to combine it with actual combat. Tomorrow, I'll go to the forest with ferocious beasts to gain some experience."
…
The next day.
Night Emperor told his idea to Jun Changxiao. After some consideration, the latter said, "Go with your Senior Martial Brother Xiao. We can take care of each other."
Him?
He's just trash.
Although Ye Xingchen was very conflicted, he still agreed on the surface. After all, he was now an Iron Bone disciple.
Just like that, a powerhouse was reborn, and a genius turned into a waste. They set out to leave the sect and begin the essential wilderness training that should only be done by the protagonist.
Xiao Ziji brought along his Type 88 sniper rifle.
Not only did he have to practice in actual combat, but he also had to take advantage of the opportunity to hunt for cores to make up for the Sect Leader's previous losses.
Our Sect Leader Jun handed over the Sect's affairs to Li Qingyang and set out for Hu Yang City.
"Sect Leader!"
Liu Wanshi stood at the entrance of the dining hall and shouted, "Bring back some seasoning!"
"Understood."
…
When Jun Changxiao arrived at Hu Yang City again, he found that it was much more lively than last time. Occasionally, he would meet martial artists with weapons.
"Can't the Ai Clan hurry up? They have to wait a month before auctioning it."
"The Ai Clan can refine this kind of healing pill that can instantly heal injuries. They even put it up for auction. What's the big deal about waiting a period of time?"
"I heard that several large clans and sects have sent people over."
"Poor people like us can only stand on the sidelines and watch the competition between them."
The martial artists on the road discussed incessantly.
Obviously, they were all foreigners who had gathered in the city to wait for the Ai Clan to auction the healing pills for the second time.
Many clans and sects had gathered their strength. Once the pills were put up for auction, they would get it no matter what price they had to pay.
It had to be said that the Ai Clan was very good at doing business. After the first auction and continuous publicity, they had successfully whetted the appetite of the martial artists in the various counties.
The auction of the healing pills had nothing to do with Jun Changxiao. He was also too lazy to show his face in public. Therefore, he went to the market first and bought a lot of seasoning before entering the Ai Clan's medicine shop.
Shopkeeper Ma, who was paying the bill at the counter, saw Jun Changxiao walk in. He didn't wait for the servants to greet him. He personally walked out and said with a smile, "Sect Leader Jun, we are honored by your presence. Please forgive us for not going out to meet you."
Before the first auction, the Ai Clan Master had already ordered that the Iron Bone Sect Leader was a VIP of the Ai Clan. If he came to the shop, they must not neglect him.
Jun Changxiao said, "Where is the Ai Clan Master? I want to talk to him about a big business deal. "
Another big business deal?
Shopkeeper Ma hurriedly made a gesture of invitation and said, "Sect Leader Jun, please take a seat. I will inform the Clan Master now."
As he spoke, he gave the servant a look to serve tea and hurriedly left the shop for the Ai Clan.
Jun Changxiao didn't sit down. He went to the medicine rack and looked at the medicinal herbs in the bamboo basket. When he saw something that caught his interest, he raised his hand to touch it.
"Don't touch it."
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
Jun Changxiao turned around and saw a white-haired old man in the corner of the shop holding a small pair of scissors and trimming a potted plant.
"Crazy old man!" The servant in the shop scolded, "This is Sect Leader Iron Bone Sect Leader Jun. Don't be rude!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly smiled apologetically and said, "Sect Leader Jun, he is a temporary worker who was hired to trim the medicinal herbs a few days ago. He doesn't know the rules. Please don't lower yourself to his level."
Jun Changxiao curiously asked, "Why can't I touch it?"
The old man didn't even raise his head. As he trimmed the medicinal herbs, he said, "That medicinal herb is called Rotten Leaf Grass. Its leaves gather spiritual energy. If a person touches it, the spiritual energy will decay and the medicinal effect will be greatly reduced."
"Tsk."
The servant rolled his eyes and said, "I move the Rotten Leaf Grass here and there every day. I come across it many times. Can't I still use it to refine pills? You crazy old man are talking nonsense again."
"Sigh."
The old man sighed and said, "It's because of careless people like you. The medicinal herbs that can be used to 100% of their medicinal effect can only be used to 50% or 60% after being refined into pills. It's really sad."
"Okay, okay."
"You are so professional. I don't want to talk to you."
The servant seemed to have argued with the old man more than once. He didn't continue to argue with him. Instead, he smiled and said, "Sect Leader Jun, please look around."
Jun Changxiao became interested and said, "Senior, you seem to know a lot about medicinal herbs."
The old man stood up and said, "Sect Leader Jun is the leader of a sect. I can't accept the title of senior."
"Elders should be respected. I deserve it, I deserve it." Jun Chang smiled.
The old man looked surprised and shook his head. "The Falling Star Continent has always respected martial arts and seniors. This is the first time I've heard of it."
Jun Changxiao wanted to continue the conversation, but Ai Shang had already rushed over. As soon as he entered the shop, he cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Sect Leader Jun, what brings you here?"
