After the crisis was over, Liu Tao and the others let out a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they were shocked. Killing a Mortal Realm Stage 10 ugly man and a strong man with copper skin and iron bones all by himself, this kind of fighting power was really scary. Even the first outer disciple of the Golden Light Realm could not do this, and even those newly promoted inner disciples might not be able to do it. Even if they could, they might not be able to escape unscathed, unlike Ye Chen, who hid his power well.
"Brother Ye, I, Liu Tao, have never admired anyone before, but today, I admire you." Liu Tao said with a serious face.
Ye Chen did not say anything, he just smiled lightly.
The group of strong men had brought them more than three thousand silvers, and after splitting it evenly, each of them got more than five hundred silvers, which was quite an unexpected windfall.
"Everyone, goodbye." After getting enough silvers, Ye Chen did not want to work with them anymore, he was ready to go to the Silent Hills by himself to gain more experience.
Liu Tao said: "Alright, we are about to go back, you be careful."
When they were about to leave, Yao Qing could not help but say: "Ye Chen, remember to come and play with us!"
Ye Chen nodded, "Maybe next time."
Soon, they were gone. Ye Chen thought to himself, 'Not long after I came out, I have already gotten two thousand seven hundred silvers, which is enough to buy some expensive materials to train my body. As for the medicines that are good for training Qi, forget about it, those things can easily cost more than ten thousand silvers, I can't even afford them.'
Aside from that, what really confused Ye Chen was why he did not feel much when it was his first time killing someone, could it be because of his soul power?
Shaking his head, Ye Chen really could not understand.
The Silent Hills was a thousand miles wide, and there were countless beasts. As far as Ye Chen knew, the outer hundred miles only had rank 1 and 2 beasts, and the chances of encountering rank 3 beasts were very low. Like that big poisonous saw-tooth beast, it was actually not a rank 3 beast, it could only be counted as a quasi-rank 3 beast. Between two hundred and five hundred miles was the danger zone, where rank 3 to 5 beasts could appear at any time, and with his current strength, encountering them would only mean death.
As for the area beyond five hundred miles, it was the real forbidden zone. Decades ago, a powerful party sent their warriors to the deeper part of the zone to find some rare herbs, but unfortunately, they encountered a rank 7 beast, Ghost Face Bull. Out of more than a hundred people, only one escaped, but he died after a few days, the reason was because his body was too strong, and he went crazy. Since then, no one had dared to enter.
Within ten miles, Ye Chen had killed three demonic beasts. The third one was a rank 2 demonic beast, the Rampage Bull. Ye Chen had grabbed its horns and killed it with his fists.
After collecting the demonic beast materials, Ye Chen decided not to go any deeper. Instead, he chose to explore the path horizontally. He did not want to run into any beasts above rank 3.
Time flew by quickly.
On the third day, Ye Chen carried a big leather bag on his back, heading back to the Windy town.
…
The Elixir Hall was the only medicine shop in the Windy town. It was not that big, and the shop was not that luxurious, but in terms of wealth, it was definitely one of the best.
After all, the richest people in this world were warriors, and most of their money was spent on medicines or pellets that could help them train. They did not even frown when it came to spending money. For them, money could be earned back, but increasing their cultivation was something that could only be found by luck.
Stepping into the Elixir Hall, Ye Chen frowned.
The shop was bustling with people, most of them were warriors in tight clothes, and some were young masters from rich families. There were also one or two people that even Ye Chen could not see through, they were probably Condensing Reality Realm warriors.
Walking to the counter, Ye Chen put the big leather bag with the materials on it.
"Shopkeeper, demonic beast materials."
The shopkeeper was an old man wearing a black robe with golden edges. He had a calm temperament. He walked over and opened the leather bag. While counting the materials, he said, "Poisonous Sawed-Tooth Beast material is worth five hundred and twenty silvers, Bald Tail Wolf material is eighty-five silvers, Violent Bull material is three hundred and eighty silvers … That's one thousand six hundred and fifty silvers in total."
Ye Chen said, "Change them all to gold notes."
The gold notes were the same as the silver notes that Ye Chen knew. They could be exchanged for gold at the bank, or they could be bought and sold directly. The minimum amount was five silvers, and the maximum was ten thousand silvers. The storage fee was three percent of the total amount, which meant that if you deposited a hundred silvers, you could only take out ninety-seven silvers.
As for the bank that issued the gold and silver notes, there was no need to worry about it going bankrupt. There was a saying that even if the Windy Nation was destroyed, the Bank of God would still be standing strong. This was referring to the stability of the gold notes. After all, as a super large bank that spanned over ten nations, it would be impossible for it to go bankrupt so easily. There were countless forces protecting it in the dark, and the country was one of them.
After ordering the workers to keep the demonic beast materials, the shopkeeper opened the safe and took out a few shiny gold notes. He placed them on the counter neatly.
"Here, a total of one hundred and sixty-five silvers. You can count it."
Ye Chen took a quick glance at the notes, then nodded and put them away. He then shifted his gaze to the shelves on the side.
As a shopkeeper, he was good at reading people's expressions. The old man smiled and said, "Young warrior, what can I do for you?"
Ye Chen said, "I need some body strengthening pellets or herbs, can you tell me about them?"
"No need for such trouble. I will give you a list of body strengthening medicines. The effects and prices are marked on it. It will be easy to understand."
"Alright."
A moment later, the shopkeeper went to work, and Ye Chen took out a piece of paper filled with words.
Tiger Dragon Bone Refining Pellet, refined with the blood essence of a blood-marked tiger and horned python, five thousand silvers per pellet.
Demon Ox Strength Pellet, refined with the blood essence of a Berserk Bull and Primordial Grass, three thousand five hundred silvers per pellet.
Flying Swallow Pellet … two thousand silvers per pellet.
…
After a long while, Ye Chen shook his head. Body strengthening pellets were just too expensive. They cost two to three thousand silvers every time. He could only afford one Tiger Dragon Bone Training Pellet with all of his money, and the effect of the pellet was only for three days. It was not enough for long-term training.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen was a little envious of those who were blessed by the heavens. They received top-notch training from a young age and ate pellets and elixirs as if they were jelly beans. In a few years, the amount of money they spent could probably fill up a house. It would be strange if they didn't improve quickly.
Of course, external help was still external help. Perhaps they could become an ordinary expert, but it would be difficult to reach a certain height.
Looking at the bottom of the list, Ye Chen's eyes lit up. Got it.
"Body strengthening paste, refined with Three Sun Grass, Beef Butter, Iron Wood Juice, and eight other ingredients. One hundred silvers per bottle."
That's it. Letting out a breath, Ye Chen raised his head and called over the shop assistant who was passing by. He said, "Give me thirty bottles of body strengthening paste."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
Thirty bottles of body strengthening paste filled an empty wooden box. After paying, Ye Chen carried it out of the Elixir Pavilion.
