Leaping off the giant rock, Zhang Ergou did not stop his cultivation.
Next, he began to practice Lion's Heart Rage, a close-combat skill. Coupled with his powerful physique, his attack power grew stronger and stronger.
When he finished cultivating, the east was already faintly lit.
The morning spiritual energy was undoubtedly the most pure and concentrated. As the sun and moon alternated, it was also the time for the disciples of Misty Sect to go out and practice their breathing.
As Zhang Ergou emerged from the jungle, he saw disciples of Misty Sect in twos and threes.
Most of the disciples of Misty Sect now recognized this newly arrived disciple of Chunyang Peak. Yesterday's battle had made Zhang Ergou's name famous throughout the outer sect.
Publicly disrespecting Xia Yang Sanren caused all the disciples to stare.
"Although this guy defeated Li Qiang yesterday, his future days will probably be difficult."
Watching Zhang Ergou emerge from the jungle, many disciples whispered and gossiped behind his back.
"Uncle-Master Xia Yang is notoriously petty. How could he let him off? Even with Master Chunyang backing him, he'll still have to watch out for Uncle-Master Xia Yang's underhanded tricks."
"I heard that one of Uncle-Master Xia Yang's true disciples has emerged from seclusion early, and he intends to challenge Zhang Ergou to avenge Li Qiang."
"Then this will be quite a show."
Zhang Ergou walked on the road with the Ghost Spear on his back. From the surrounding discussions, he gathered some information.
"True disciple?" A sharp glint flashed in Zhang Ergou's eyes. His future days would likely be even more unsettled.
Although his master had warned him to keep a low profile and avoid provoking others as much as possible.
However, since Xia Yang Sanren wanted to send a true disciple for revenge, he had to find ways to improve his strength.
Carrying the Ghost Spear, Zhang Ergou walked straight to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
The Myriad Treasures Pavilion was majestic, covering an area of ten thousand zhang. A large plaque hung at the entrance: Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
The Myriad Treasures Pavilion was where Misty Sect sold all sorts of items, including spiritual pills, martial arts techniques, weapons, and more.
These were all things that were important to cultivators.
In addition to these conventional items, there were also some strange and exotic things collected by the elders.
Disciples coming to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had to use contribution points to buy items.
Of course, they could also sell their own items here, so business was always booming.
"Heh heh, I wonder if there are any treasures I need in here." With a chuckle, Zhang Ergou stepped into the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
The person in charge of guarding the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was an old man. The old man was plump, with a smiling face.
This man was named Wu Dafei, and no one who entered the Myriad Treasures Pavilion could escape his sharp, discerning eyes.
"Elder, good morning." He bowed respectfully to Wu Dafei as he entered.
Wu Dafei nodded, "Go in, look around, but don't steal anything."
Zhang Ergou scratched his head and chuckled, "Even if you gave me ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare!"
Saying this, he walked towards the depths of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
The interior of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion was even more vast, with the fragrance of spiritual herbs wafting everywhere. Zhang Ergou walked and browsed.
"Snow Mountain Fire Lotus!"
Zhang Ergou's eyes lit up at the sight of a medicinal herb. The lotus on top seemed to be burning, while its base was as white as snow.
A pure energy surged towards him, with dense spiritual power lingering around it. Zhang Ergou couldn't help but lick his lips.
"Damn, five hundred contribution points! That's so expensive!" Shaking his head, Zhang Ergou left the spot.
He only had the five hundred contribution points that Xia Yang Sanren had given him as an apology yesterday. It would be better to buy something more practical.
Walking forward, Zhang Ergou's mouth was watering.
"Thousand-year-old ginseng!"
"Purple Ganoderma!"
Herbs imbued with spiritual power attracted Zhang Ergou's gaze. If he could refine all these herbs, his strength would undoubtedly increase greatly.
"Alas! It's just too damn expensive!" Zhang Ergou shook his head with a pang of regret.
He had initially thought that the five hundred contribution points from Xia Yang Sanren was a huge sum, but after a quick look around, there was nothing he could afford.
Next, Zhang Ergou went to the weapon and technique sections, but to his disappointment, he found nothing he needed.
"Qi Condensation Pill!" Turning into a corner, Zhang Ergou discovered a tattered scroll.
Three large characters were written on it: Qi Condensation Pill.
Zhang Ergou picked up the scroll and examined it carefully. He was surprised to find that it was a recipe for refining Qi Condensation Pills.
It detailed the method for refining Qi Condensation Pills and the required ingredients.
"Even the pill recipes can be sold?" Zhang Ergou had heard from Chunyang Sanren that there was a highly respected profession among cultivators.
That was an alchemist. Su Dan Novel Network.
The main reason was that the conditions for becoming an alchemist were extremely harsh. Not only did one need a natural affinity for fire, but also a great deal of time had to be spent studying alchemy.
Even on Yin Province Continent, alchemists were extremely rare.
Therefore, the status of alchemists was also quite esteemed.
The Qi Condensation Pill recipe Zhang Ergou held in his hand was used to refine Qi Condensation Pills.
Qi Condensation Pills were auxiliary items used during cultivation, and they could greatly increase the speed of cultivation.
They achieved twice the result with half the effort.
For a long time, Qi Condensation Pills could only be refined by the alchemists in the Treasure Pill Pavilion.
Zhang Ergou thought that such things would never be leaked, as why would such things be easily taught to others?
"This is too unbelievable. A Qi Condensation Pill recipe only costs twenty contribution points. It can't be fake, can it?" Zhang Ergou scratched his head.
He looked at the recipe again, scrutinizing it with doubt in his eyes.
"Little fellow, what are you looking at? Are you interested in alchemy?" Wu Dafei walked up to Zhang Ergou and said.
Zhang Ergou turned and smiled, "Elder, is the price marked incorrectly? The pill recipe only costs twenty contribution points?"
"Of course not, the price of this pill recipe is indeed twenty contribution points."
"Although it is very valuable, ordinary cultivators can't do anything with it, and the monsters in the Treasure Pill Pavilion don't care for it, so it can only be sold at a low price."
"Why is that?"
"Alchemy requires a natural affinity for fire, and it's even better if one possesses Dan Fire."
"In our Misty Sect, besides the monsters in the Treasure Pill Pavilion who can refine pills, only the former sect leader possessed Dan Fire. Therefore, the Treasure Pill Pavilion makes much more money than I do."
"Dan Fire!" Zhang Ergou's eyes lit up.
"Elder, can you sell me this pill recipe? I want to try refining it with spiritual fire!"
Wu Dafei looked at Zhang Ergou as if he were an idiot, "If everyone thought like you, there would be alchemists everywhere by now!"
Zhang Ergou chuckled sheepishly and scratched his head, "Elder, I want this pill recipe!"
Saying this, he took out his jade token. Wu Dafei helplessly accepted it and deducted twenty points from it.
"This kid's brain might have some problems." Shaking his head, Wu Dafei muttered in a low voice.
After Wu Dafei left, Zhang Ergou carefully put away the pill recipe and continued to browse the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
