When Situ Gang saw the smiling true inheritor Chen Xiao in the air, his heart turned cold. He quickly prepared to fly out and apologize. However, Situ Gang seemed to think of something. Just as he rose to the surface, he sank back into the water.
Situ Gang's appearance was extremely comical. After being knocked into the water several times today, a shadow had already formed in his heart.
"Senior Brother Chen, Situ Gang apologizes to you. He was rude earlier and deserved to be kicked. However, Senior Brother, please explain why you suddenly interfered in my duel with Xiao Chen, "Situ Gang said as he performed a cupped-fist salute, hiding the rage in his eyes.
Such a scene made Yu Zhiqiang and the others' gazes blaze with fervor. An intense yearning appeared in their hearts.
This was a true inheritor. Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, if he kicked you, so be it. If you dared to speak rudely, then he would continue to kick you. Even if he severely injured you, there would be no one to reason with.
Although the true inheritors' cultivations were not as high as those Martial Sage Elders, they were still young, no more than forty years old. They were all talented people. In the future, they would definitely become the pillars of the Haotian Sect. Their statuses were equal to that of Elders.
They could use the full power of Punishment Elders against inner sect disciples and directly control the life and death of outer sect disciples. Their statuses were high, and the resources they enjoyed were even better than those of Elders.
These were the lifelong goals of Yu Zhiqiang and the others.
Situ Gang had been in the Haotian Sect for more than two months. He already knew how terrifying true inheritors were. Hence, when Situ Gang discovered that the person who kicked him was Chen Xiao, all his temper immediately vanished.
Chen Xiao said coldly, "Are the people of the battle realms all as shameless as you? Xiao Chen just fought with Gui Wu, and you took advantage of him while he was down. Yet, you still dare to call this a duel?"
Situ Gang paled as he slowly flew out of the water. He glanced at Xiao Chen and said, "Good. In that case, I'll wait for you for two months. Xiao Chen, two months from now, let's finish our unfinished duel here. Do you dare?"
Xiao Chen retorted indifferently, "Why would I not dare? If you want to fight, I will grant your wish. I will wait for you here in two months."
Originally, Situ Gang had intended to end today's duel quickly, spreading his reputation far and wide. Unexpectedly, it ended like this. Situ Gang felt extremely sullen in his heart. He snorted coldly and slowly walked back.
In the distance, Yu Zhiqiang's expression was incomparably gloomy as he said, "Let's go as well. This kid hasn't risen to prominence yet, so we must think of a way to deal with him. However, he actually has a connection to Chen Xiao. We have to discuss this when we get back.
The few of them felt threatened in their hearts and their expressions were ugly. They were no longer as relaxed as they were when they first arrived.
"Junior Brother Xiao Chen, I have done you a great favor. Are you not going to invite me back for a seat?" Chen Xiao turned around and smiled at Xiao Chen after everyone left.
He had Xiao Chen. had no idea. Chen did God. of of it. Chen.. He Xiao., Chen and. and Xiao.. However, even if Chen Xiao had not come, Xiao Chen had a sixty percent chance of defeating Situ Gang. However, the secret of the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram and the Blue Dragon would have been exposed.
Chen Xiao knew what Xiao Chen was thinking. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't overthink. Someone asked me to bring you something. It was just a matter of convenience."
The suspicions in Xiao Chen's heart deepened. However, he could only put them aside and lead Chen Xiao into his courtyard.
Chen Xiao took a sip of the tea that Xiao Chen brewed for him. Then, he took out a jade bottle and a brocade box. He said, "There is a stalk of Monarch Blood Grass in the brocade box. After consuming it, it can improve a cultivator's blood, giving them a trace of an ancient monarch's bloodline.
"There is half a drop of Dragon Marrow in the jade bottle. It can seep into a cultivator's marrow and allow their bones to undergo a complete rebirth, giving them a tenth of the dragon bone's defense. The value of the two added together would be difficult to buy even if one spent tens of millions of Superior Grade Spirit Stones. "
Great waves stirred in Xiao Chen's heart. Could these two things be for me?
"Haha! That's right. These two natural treasures are for you. Even I am envious of such things," Chen Xiao said with a faint smile. Chen Xiao said with a faint smile. He wasn't lying. Ten million Upper Grade Spirit Stones was a huge sum even for a true disciple.
Furthermore, these two natural treasures were actually very difficult to measure with Spirit Stones. Even if one had money, one could not buy them. Most people would just consume them themselves.
This happiness came too suddenly. Xiao Chen found it hard to believe. He asked, "Senior Brother Chen, who gave me these two items?"
Chen Xiao shook his head and replied, "I'm not sure. First Senior Sister got someone to pass them to you at Bushin Palace. As for who gave them to you, I do not know, either. I only heard from First Senior Sister that this person has a great background."
The First Senior Sister that Chen Xiao mentioned was the top true inheritor of the Haotian Sect, Shui Lingling. She was also one of the seven giants of the Tianwu Domain's younger generation, second only to the sons of the Three Holy Masters. She was undoubtedly a hero among women.
In the eighteen southern provinces, the Haotian Sect's reputation was higher than the other two Nine Ranks of the Great Families. Aside from the mysterious Sect Master, a large part of the reason was this woman's prestige.
Even after Chen Xiao left, Xiao Chen still could not figure out who was so generous as to bring him such a gift. Xiao Chen did not remember interacting with anyone in the Kunlun Realm.
"Never mind. There is no point in overthinking. These two natural treasures happen to be very useful to me. Originally, I was worried that I would not be able to reach the peak of the Firmament Body Tempering Art's sixth layer in a short time.
Now, I can relax, "Xiao Chen said softly as he placed the jade bottle and the brocade box into his Universe Ring.
After renting this courtyard, Xiao Chen had only one million Superior Grade Spirit Stones left. Xiao Chen did some calculations. One million Superior Grade Spirit Stones would only allow him to reach the middle stage of the Firmament Body Tempering Art for a short time.
If everything went smoothly, he would be able to reach the late stage of the Firmament Body Tempering Art at best. He did not even dare to think about reaching the peak of the Firmament Body Tempering Art. After his Vital Qi reached five hundred tons of force, it would be very difficult to increase it by even ten percent.
With this Monarch Blood Grass and half a drop of Dragon Marrow, all his problems would be solved. As for who sent them, that would be a problem for him to consider in the future.
Xiao Chen quickly replenished his exhausted Quintessence using a Spirit Vein's origin in the cultivation room in the courtyard. Then, he immediately rushed to the herb shop in the inner city, where he bought the Quintessence Gathering Pill.
The shop was cold and cheerless; there was not much business. The shop assistants and the owner all seemed dispirited.
Suddenly, when the owner saw Xiao Chen walk in, his eyes lit up. He immediately remembered that this was the rich customer who spent two hundred thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones to buy two Quintessence Gathering Pills.
The owner immediately perked up and smiled. "It has been a few days since we last met. Little Brother's cultivation has improved greatly. Congratulations!"
The owner's eyes were very sharp. With one glance, he could tell that Xiao Chen had consumed the Quintessence Gathering Pill. Xiao Chen's strength was at least twenty percent stronger than the last time he came.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said calmly, "It cannot be said that my cultivation has improved greatly. Bring out the Medicinal Pills and natural treasures that I mentioned previously."
The owner was startled. The Medicinal Pills that Xiao Chen mentioned previously cost a total of seven or eight hundred thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones. Even a regular inner sect disciple would not be able to take out so many. Where did Xiao Chen get so many Spirit Stones?
"What's wrong? Are they all sold out?" Xiao Chen asked with a slight frown when he saw the owner not moving.
When the owner reacted, he revealed an expression of wild joy. He shouted, "How can this be? Quick, bring out the Medicinal Pills and natural treasures for body tempering cultivators."
Soon, the counter in front of Xiao Chen was filled with Medicinal Pills and natural treasures for body tempering.
Xiao Chen casually glanced through them and said, "You can remove the Medicinal Pills that are not useful for five hundred tons of force of Vital Qi."
The owner was astonished once again. This Xiao Chen did not look very old, only twenty-one or twenty-two years old. For him to be an Inferior Grade Martial Monarch was not too shocking in the Tianwu Domain.
However, Xiao Chen's physical body had also reached five hundred tons of force of Vital Qi. This was rather scary.
After taking away the inferior Medicinal Pills and natural treasures, Xiao Chen counted them and took out a bottle of Spirit Freezing Pills.
Tempering the physical body was like tossing a piece of metal into a blazing fire, tempering it thousands of times, tempering it into steel.
The process was extremely painful. The further one went, the more horrifying the pain would be. Hence, many cultivators were willing to spend time tempering the physical body.
The Spirit Freezing Pill was a Medicinal Pill unique to the Kunlun Realm. It could reduce the pain during the tempering process. If used at the right time, it would be very useful. However, it was very expensive.
There were no more than three Spirit Freezing Pills in one bottle. However, they cost one hundred and fifty thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones, comparable to the Rank 8 Quintessence Gathering Pill.
Furthermore, the Spirit Freezing Pill only reduced pain. It was far from comparable to the Quintessence Gathering Pill. It had to be said that the expenses of a body tempering cultivator were truly flabbergasting.
After choosing the Spirit Freezing Pill, Xiao Chen took out a stack of Dragon Jelly Ointment. The Dragon Jelly Ointment was made from the blood of an Earth Dragon and the Fire Dragon Fruit, using a special formula.
When placed in clear water, it would form a medicinal liquid. When a cultivator soaked in it and tempered their body, with the help of the Medicinal Energy, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort. There were many similar medicines. However, at Xiao Chen's cultivation realm, the Dragon Jelly Ointment was the most effective.
After that, Xiao Chen asked for a Blood Refining Pill. The Blood Refining Pill had the same effect as the Monarch Blood Grass. However, the effects were worlds apart. However, this did not prevent him from using the Blood Refining Pill before consuming the Monarch Blood Grass.
Finally, Xiao Chen took out a Yellow Spirit Flower. The Yellow Spirit Flower had the same effect as the half drop of Dragon Marrow. However, the latter was extracted from the spine of an ancient dragon, so the two were not on the same level.
The shop owner smiled happily as he counted the items. Then, he said to Xiao Chen, "All in all, it will cost one million six hundred thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones. However, you are a Haotian Sect inner sect disciple. It is the same as buying the Quintessence Gathering Pill. You only need to pay half the Spirit Stones."
Xiao Chen put away all the items. Then, he took out eight hundred thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones and gave them to the shop owner. Xiao Chen still had some Spirit Stones on hand, but he was not in a rush to leave.
"Boss, do you know where I can buy Immortal Spirit Rings in the city? How much would they cost?"
The shop owner muttered, "Immortal Spirit Rings … you can definitely buy them in the city's auction houses. However, the items there are very expensive. If you want to buy them, you can go to the Miscellaneous Goods Street in the west of the city. That place specializes in miscellaneous goods. There are also some unknown treasures that you can find in Remnants.
"As for the price, inner sect disciples do not get any discounts when buying Immortal Spirit Rings. The more expensive ones cost one million Superior Grade Spirit Stones. The worse ones only cost tens of thousands of Superior Grade Spirit Stones. The more expensive the Immortal Spirit Ring, the larger the space inside. Of course, the consumption is higher as well. "
