Back then, when Gui Wu saw Xiao Chen make a move in the courtyard, he had thought that Xiao Chen would be the toughest bone to chew. So he had made a lot of preparations.
After handing over the Inferior Grade Spirit Gathering Pearls, Xiao Chen walked forward expressionlessly, not saying a word.
The person beside Gui Wu smiled and said, "Big Brother, this brat is not as mysterious as you say. How can someone from the Sky Dome Realm be that powerful?"
Gui Wu weighed the Spirit Gathering Pearls in his hand and said in a cold voice, "At least he is sensible. I happen to lack one person for me to make an example out of."
After that, he turned his head and asked, "How many Inferior Grade Spirit Gathering Pearls did we collect?"
Someone immediately calculated and said excitedly, "There are a hundred people in this residential area that we control. That's a total of five hundred Spirit Gathering Pearls."
When Gui Wu heard this, he shook his head and said, "That is still too little. The original five big factions controlled at least three or four hundred people in this residential area. That group of blockheads from the battle realm controlled more than two hundred people.
"Of the seven big factions, we are the weakest. We have to be more ruthless next month. Everyone has to hand over seven Spirit Gathering Pearls. Otherwise, we will be pushed out sooner or later."
In the wooden hut that Xiao Chen was in, Zhuo Yushi said with some joy, "Xiao Chen, it is fortunate that you did not make a move on them. Otherwise, the consequences would be dire."
"What do you mean?" Xiao Chen asked.
Zhuo Yushi took a sip of tea and said, "Collecting Spirit Gathering Pearls from inner sect disciples has always existed. Previously, our residential area was under the control of the fifth-ranked inner sect disciple, Lan Feichen.
"Half a month ago, Gui Wu led a group of people to fight with him. No one knows the result. However, after that, Lan Feichen assigned our residential area to Gui Wu."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly and said, "Lan Feichen would not give him a portion for no reason. It looks like this Gui Wu is not simple."
Zhuo Yushi said, "He has a strong backer. He is the grandson of the Spirit Sea Realm's Haotian Sect's Sect Master. I heard rumors that he brought millions of Superior Grade Spirit Stones. After consuming the Quintessence Gathering Pill and consuming many natural treasures, he returned to peak Inferior Grade Martial Monarch. "
After chatting for a while, Zhuo Yushi took his leave. Only then did Xiao Chen reveal a murderous intent.
"My Spirit Gathering Pearls are not that easy to obtain."
"My Spirit Gathering Pearls are not that easy," Xiao Chen muttered to himself softly.
With the earlier experience, Xiao Chen's speed of refining Veritable Essence Energy became much faster. After that experience, Xiao Chen of Xiao Chen, his Quintessence, in, Chen had.
"Chen" Wu, Xiao Chen, a, "Xiao", Xiao Chen, "Xiao Chen" and "," Chen Gathering, Chen "," Qiu "," Xiao Chen ", Of Of Chen of Jin Of a", Chen ".
Xiao Chen of Chen of Yu "Chen" of of Tian of. of of Chen of the "Chen" was "by Yu.
The saber Qi was like lightning, disappearing in a flash. It silently pierced through a vase on the wooden table and the wall, heading out of the room.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the vase landed in his grasp.
The vase was made of porcelain. With just a gentle touch, it would shatter. If it were in the past, with Xiao Chen's strong Quintessence, he would have crushed the vase into powder with just a strong wind.
However, the saber Qi of Xiao Chen's Quintessence was not weakened at all. However, it only managed to create a flawless hole in the vase.
If others were here and did not see Xiao Chen make a move, they would definitely think that there was a hole in the vase in the first place.
Xiao Chen played with the vase for a while and smiled faintly. Then, he waved his hand and returned the vase to its original position.
"The purity of my Quintessence is probably no weaker than Gui Wu's after he consumed the Quintessence Gathering Pill."
When he ran into Gui Wu, Xiao Chen already had a sixty percent chance of victory. However, Gui Wu was not alone. He had six or seven lower-realm geniuses who were slightly weaker than him.
Xiao Chen had to consume the Quintessence Gathering Pill and refine his already extremely dense Quintessence. Only then would he not fear being surrounded.
Martial Techniques had never been Xiao Chen's weakness. Be it the Four Season Saber Technique that he comprehended or the Blue Dragon Returns to the Sea, which he could already bring out eighty percent of.
Xiao Chen was confident that he could defeat his opponents in Martial Techniques.
All Xiao Chen lacked was accumulations, accumulations of Quintessence. Once he completely refined his Quintessence, no one in Inferior Grade Martial Monarch would be a match for him.
At that time, he could seek trouble for those people. Xiao Chen was not someone who would suffer losses. Since they took his Spirit Gathering Pearls, they had to pay the price.
Right now, Xiao Chen was still a middle-stage Inferior Grade Martial Monarch. Using the Quintessence Gathering Pill would be a waste.
However, Xiao Chen still had more than a hundred Inferior Grade Spirit Gathering Pearls. As long as he was willing to part with them, he would be able to use them to advance to peak Inferior Grade Martial Monarch in a week.
"I have to cultivate slowly for now. There are still five more days to the end of the month. I should go and accept a sect mission first."
Xiao Chen had to accept a sect mission. Otherwise, he would not be able to remain in the inner sect. This was a hard and fast rule of the Haotian Sect. Xiao Chen did not dare to disobey it.
When Xiao Chen passed by Zhuo Yushi's house, he scanned it with his Spiritual Sense. The house was empty; Zhuo Yushi was not there.
Xiao Chen did not mind. He found someone and asked politely. Then, he found out how to get to the mission hall.
After one hour, Xiao Chen arrived at the mission hall. As the end of the month approached, there were many people in the mission hall. The place was very noisy.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Chen finally arrived at the front desk. He received a mission list and started to look through it carefully.
The missions were not separated into ranks. The missions with high rewards were all linked to high risk. Normally, no one would overestimate themselves and take on a mission that they could not complete.
If one failed a mission, they would be punished accordingly. The higher the reward, the greater the punishment.
With such a rule, it prevented people from taking on missions blindly.
"This is an escort mission. The City Lord's Residence of Haining City has to escort a batch of resources to pay tribute. It is not very dangerous. However, it takes a long time and the reward is low.
"There is also a mission to collect Spirit Beast materials. It was issued by an Alchemist of our sect. The reward is very high. However, the rules are too strict. Not only do they have to ensure the completeness of the materials, but they also have to ensure the freshness of the materials. Who can do that? "
Xiao Chen carefully searched for missions that were suitable for him. However, he discovered that he was not satisfied with any of them. Either the reward was low, or the conditions were too harsh.
Hey, hunting loose cultivators? Xiao Chen's eyes lit up as he pulled out a mission list. It described a city at the border of the Haotian Province.
Recently, a group of loose cultivators had arrived. They were all Inferior Grade Martial Monarchs. They came and went like the wind. This group of loose cultivators had wiped out half of the four clans in the city.
Not only did they sweep away all the accumulated wealth of the clans, but they also cut open their stomachs and killed everyone, regardless of age or gender. This caused everyone in the city to panic.
The objective of the mission was to kill this group of loose cultivators and obtain one thousand contribution points and fifty thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and held the mission list in his hand. He said, "It shall be you."
Not only could Xiao Chen test the results of his cultivation, but he could also obtain rewards. This mission was tailor-made for him.
The Haotian Province was vast and boundless. Just this province was larger than the entire Great Jin Nation of the Tianwu Continent.
There were nine large cities in the province, hundreds of medium-sized cities, and no less than a thousand small cities. Dingshui City, which Xiao Chen wanted to go to, was one of these small cities.
Dingshui City sat at the border of the Haotian Province and the White Feather Province. The White Feather Province was very large as well. The Rank 8 sect, the Rising Heaven Pavilion, guarded this province.
If this were any other place, given the Rising Heaven Pavilion's strength, it would not be an overlord.
However, Dingshui City was too close to the Haotian Sect. As the saying went, "One mountain cannot hold two tigers." Only one overlord could exist in one place. The Haotian Sect suppressed the Rising Heaven Pavilion for many years, overshadowing it.
Haotian City was very far from Dingshui City, several million kilometers away. Due to the restrictions of the Kunlun Realm, Xiao Chen's speed was reduced by at least twenty percent.
If Xiao Chen wanted to fly over by himself, even if he did not eat or drink and rushed day and night, he would still need a month. Clearly, it was not worth it.
Fortunately, there were very few long-distance transportation formations in the Sky Dome Realm. They were not rare in the Kunlun Realm.
This was a secret passed down from the Immortal Epoch. After several seniors of the Kunlun Realm studied it for thousands of years, they finally made some headway.
These transportation formations could be replicated. After all, they were just replicas. They could not achieve a perfect effect. Furthermore, the cost was very high.
Even with the wealth of the Haotian Sect, it could only set up a total of ten transportation formations in the nine cities of the Haotian Province and its main sect.
Even so, it made it much more convenient for cultivators to travel. Xiao Chen only needed to go to Sky Mound City and ride a flying Spirit Beast to reach Dingshui City in five days.
After Xiao Chen accepted this mission, he did not waste any more time. He headed for the transportation plaza in the city. Just as he was about to leave, someone called out to him.
"Brother Xiao, are you here to accept a mission as well?"
In the crowded mission hall, Zhuo Yushi had a joyful expression on his face as he quickly headed for Xiao Chen with a group of people.
Xiao Chen turned his head back and discovered that Zhuo Yushi's Quintessence, which had been floating around, had withdrawn into his body. His cultivation had fallen from late-stage Inferior Grade Martial Monarch to early-stage Inferior Grade Martial Monarch.
However, Zhuo Yushi's aura was much sharper than before. The current Zhuo Yushi was completely different from the Zhuo Yushi of half a month ago.
Clearly, Zhuo Yushi was very satisfied with his current cultivation. As he walked, he could feel an indistinct self-confidence.
However, when Zhuo Yushi saw Xiao Chen's cultivation, he was greatly startled. Xiao Chen's cultivation was now completely withdrawn, like a pool of limpid autumn water, unfathomable.
Xiao Chen was clearly a middle-stage Inferior Grade Martial Monarch, but the purity of his Quintessence was much stronger than Zhuo Yushi's.
That is impossible. If he consumed the Quintessence Gathering Pill, his cultivation would fall back to early-stage Inferior Grade Martial Monarch. How could his cultivation be so much higher than mine?
Could this be the effect of the Superior Grade Quintessence Gathering Pill? No matter how Zhuo Yushi thought about it, this was the only possibility.
"Xiao Chen, you already consumed the Superior Grade Quintessence Gathering Pill?" Zhuo Yushi asked.
Zhuo Yushi had exposed the fact that he had a Superior Grade Quintessence Gathering Pill in front of everyone. Xiao Chen was slightly upset.
However, Xiao Chen understood Zhuo Yushi's character. He knew that Zhuo Yushi had not done it on purpose. So, he could not get angry. He nodded and said, "I guess so."
When the group of people behind Zhuo Yushi heard that Xiao Chen had consumed a Superior Grade Quintessence Gathering Pill, a strange look flashed in their eyes.
