Chapter 598: Huge Harvest

Chen Fei didn’t know that there were still people hidden in some mountain valleys. Now in his ordinary state, his perception couldn’t extend to such a distance, and those formations also had a concealed effect.

Even if Chen Fei pa.s.sed by those mountain valleys, he probably wouldn’t see anyone inside, unless his Heavenly Eyes could still function normally at this moment.

But the formations here could suppress even beings like the Black Divine, so Chen Fei naturally couldn’t break through such a seal.

The Suppressing Dragon Elephant Spirit Tempering could remind Chen Fei slightly at critical moments, which already made him feel that these elephants were very powerful.

With the black stone on his back, Chen Fei spent several hours and arrived inside the Black Divine City.

Chen Fei did the same as before, first returning to the stone house, cutting the black stone in the spatial grid into ten parts, and then batch by batch, throwing the black stone into the well.

The Black Divine was thoroughly sealed, and being able to manipulate these rules beneficial to himself was already quite remarkable.

As for other matters, there was no longer the energy to focus on them. After all, its main focus was still to resist the seal. A slight slackening would probably result in the seal being reimposed.

It took Chen Fei an hour to finish delivering all the black stones.

Along the way, Chen Fei visited a marketplace, carefully inspecting the various items sold at each stall. For those he was interested in, Chen Fei would inquire about the prices.

However, that was all. Chen Fei did not make any purchases; it wasn’t the right time yet.

Several moments later, Chen Fei returned to the foot of the mountain. Just like before, he placed a cubic black stone into the spatial grid, then took another piece on his back and started climbing again.

A day pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye, and it was already the third day since Chen Fei entered the Black Divine Domain.

Life in the Black Divine Domain was extremely dull. Perhaps due to the seal, staying here for long made even emotional fluctuations seem much duller.

In theory, with so many people and monsters, conflicts should easily arise. But in reality, there was peace between humans and monsters, and there were no visible fights between people or monsters.

Chen Fei had previously found it strange, thinking there might be some restrictions within the Black Divine city. However, after learning the true nature of this domain, Chen Fei understood that it was the effect of the seal.

It made one’s thoughts stagnant and emotions subdued, to the point where one couldn’t even bother to think of escape.

The longer one stayed, the more this effect would acc.u.mulate.

A truly clever seal is one that makes you clearly have opportunities but are too lazy to make a move. It not only seals your body but also seals your heart altogether.

Chen Fei had only been here for three days, and this feeling was already quite noticeable. If he continued like this for a long time, he didn’t know what his personality would eventually become.

From yesterday until now, Chen Fei finally used up the remaining two opportunities to go down the mountain, and all the black stones were thrown into the well. At this moment, Chen Fei’s contribution points reached thirty-three.

This was a quite astonis.h.i.+ng number. At least, it was absolutely impossible to acc.u.mulate so many contribution points solely by his own efforts. Only those in the marketplace who possessed astonis.h.i.+ng spiritual materials could possibly have such contribution points.

Chen Fei’s figure appeared in the marketplace, arriving at a stall in the middle of the marketplace.

The stall owner was a female warrior, but her muscles were much more exaggerated than those of the average male warrior. Even though she was now sealed into an ordinary person, one could still sense her ferocity.

The cultivation technique she practiced was extraordinary, and her physical training was even more formidable than that of the Tiandao Sect of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Chen Fei could vaguely sense the opponent’s realm, at least at the late stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and it was even possible that she had reached the pinnacle of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Xiang Qianling glanced at Chen Fei, then closed her eyes again. It was this person who came to the stall yesterday to inquire about prices. Xiang Qianling thought a transaction would be made, but after asking around, this person just left directly.

If this had happened before, with Xiang Qianling’s temperament, she probably would have directly taken action.

But now, in the Black Divine Domain, Xiang Qianling couldn’t be bothered with such people.

“Are the prices for the elixirs still the same as yesterday?” Chen Fei asked in a low voice.

“Yes!” Xiang Qianling didn’t even open her eyes.

“A Thousand Words Elixir, twenty bottles. Phoenix Condensing Elixir, twenty bottles. Spirit Fusion Elixir, twenty bottles!” Chen Fei continued.

These elixirs were not for use by pract.i.tioners at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm but for those at the Aperture Tempering realm. Compared to ordinary elixirs for cultivating elemental energy, all three types Chen Fei mentioned just now were helpful for breaking through realms.

As long as the cultivation technique was sound, when breaking through to the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm, while it couldn’t be said to be foolproof, the success rate would indeed greatly increase.

Moreover, when intending to break through from the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, taking these three elixirs together could also increase the chances of success.

Such elixirs were naturally available in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, but they were all controlled by a few top forces because some of the spiritual materials needed for them only grew in certain special areas.

As for the elixir recipes, they are even harder to come by in the outside world.

Both the spiritual materials and the elixir recipes are monopolized, and only sporadic elixirs may leak out, but they are quickly bought up.

The Aperture Tempering realm is the backbone of a sect. Only with enough pract.i.tioners at the Aperture Tempering realm, especially at the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm, can a sect continuously produce Combined Aperture Tempering realm powerhouses.

This principle is understood by all forces, which is why such elixirs are so precious.

Now, in the marketplace, these elixirs that are rarely seen in the Thousand Feathers Alliance are all sold by the bottle, with each bottle containing dozens of elixirs.

For Chen Fei to buy sixty bottles like this, he only needs to pay three contribution points in total.

Upon hearing Chen Fei’s words, Xiang Qianling’s eyes widened. Three contribution points – this was a big deal. Previously, when Chen Fei bought the Celestial Azure Flower, he only spent three contribution points.

Xiang Qianling used to transport supplies for the sect, so she had so many elixirs in her Qiankun Bag. However, she accidentally entered the Black Divine Domain midway. Feeling the wonders of the Black Divine Domain, Xiang Qianling decided to sell these elixirs.

At first, Xiang Qianling set the price relatively high because these elixirs were not usually used for cultivating elemental energy but were taken only one or two at a time during critical breakthrough moments.

Therefore, these hundreds of elixirs, if the sect was not large, could at least support it for several decades.

However, despite the black stone being difficult to obtain, the Thousand Words Elixir and others, while impressive and in sufficient quant.i.ty, were unable to a.s.sist in one’s cultivation for the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.

Many people ultimately didn’t make the decision to spend their precious contribution points on this.

The price of Xiang Qianling’s elixirs kept dropping until it settled at three contribution points for sixty bottles. This was already Xiang Qianling’s bottom line; she would rather not sell them any lower.

“Are you sure?” Xiang Qianling’s rough voice softened slightly.

A rare occurrence considering her peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Over the years, she had seldom spoken kindly to anyone, even to fellow peak-level pract.i.tioners.

After all, for her to have to ask for help from someone of the same level was practically unheard of. As for selling items, as a peak-level pract.i.tioner in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, although not a top-tier expert, she was still an important figure in her sect.

Such matters as selling goods hardly ever concerned Xiang Qianling.

“Yes, we can proceed with the transaction now,” Chen Fei nodded.

“Alright!”

Hearing Chen Fei’s words, a hint of a smile appeared on Xiang Qianling’s face. Taking the sect’s supplies to sell might be a big deal for others, but for Xiang Qianling, at most she would receive a few reprimands.

After all, the Xiang Family had a Mountain Sea Realm expert overseeing it, and any losses from these supplies could be compensated by Xiang Qianling afterward. At most, she might have to deduct some contribution points from the sect, and nothing more would happen.

Chen Fei transferred three contribution points to Xiang Qianling and received sixty bottles of elixirs in return.

Bringing these elixirs back to the Primordial Sword Sect would undoubtedly further enhance the cultivation speed of the Aperture Tempering realm pract.i.tioners in the sect.

Currently, the Primordial Sword Sect didn’t lack ordinary elixirs for increasing elemental energy. However, in martial cultivation, not everyone could break through without any bottlenecks like Chen Fei did.

Even though Chen Fei occasionally taught the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect when he visited, teaching was one thing, but whether they could absorb and make it their own was entirely another.

In the Primordial Sword Sect, most people are currently progressing slowly in their cultivation, with many being stuck at bottlenecks.

But now, with these sixty bottles of elixirs, many of the smaller bottlenecks will no longer be a problem. People like Qu Qingsheng and others can quickly break through to the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm.

By then, the Primordial Sword Sect will truly have the foundation of a fourth-tier power.

Of course, if Chen Fei’s current cultivation level were truly exposed, the foundation of the Primordial Sword Sect would still be weak.

There’s no way around it. Chen Fei’s cultivation progresses too quickly, leaving little time for the others in the Primordial Sword Sect to catch up.

“I have some other items here. Take a look and see if there’s anything you need,” Xiang Qianling’s att.i.tude became warmer after completing the transaction.

“Do you have any elixirs that can a.s.sist in body refinement?” Chen Fei asked.

While the Black Divine Temple could exchange for Purple Fire Spirit Pill, the random nature of the Black Divine Temple’s selections was something Chen Fei found difficult to handle.

Drawing insights into martial techniques was one thing, but if the other party disregarded martial ethics and directly drew items from Chen Fei’s Qiankun Bag, or even drew his lifespan, then Chen Fei would be helpless.

Moreover, after browsing the marketplace a few times, Chen Fei found that the items here were much cheaper than those in the Black Divine Temple. For example, the Celestial Azure Flower cost three points in the marketplace compared to five points in the Black Divine Temple, and it was likely the same Celestial Azure Flower.

“Yes!”

Xiang Qianling took out a bottle of elixir from her Qiankun Bag, opened the bottle cap, poured out a pill onto her palm, and said, “This pill is called Blood Lotus Pill, a third-grade superior elixir that can benefit body refinement practice.”

A smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face. He recognized this pill; it was the same one the elders of the Tiandao Sect used in their cultivation.

The Blood Lotus Pill was also not circulated outside because even the Tiandao Sect didn’t have enough to distribute among its own members, let alone for it to be found elsewhere.

After a while, Chen Fei exchanged two contribution points for sixteen bottles of Blood Lotus Pills. With these pills, along with the Purple Fire Spirit Pill, it was almost a certainty that Chen Fei’s Suppressing Dragon Elephant would break through to perfection in a short time.

After receiving the Blood Lotus Pills, Chen Fei didn’t leave the marketplace but followed behind Xiang Qianling, heading towards a stone house..
