Fifteen minutester, Song Wen arrived at Wind Listening Pavilion.
Wind Listening Pavilion is a ce specially designed for cultivators tomunicate.
It has both private rooms and courtyards.
The private rooms are mainly used for cultivators to discuss private matters, providing protection against eavesdropping.
Xing Chang chose to meet Song Wen here because he didn''t want the fact that Song Wen had saved him to be leaked.
If that were to happen, it would harm his reputation as a member of the Xing family.
In one of the private rooms, Song Wen met with Xing Chang.
Xing Chang hade alone.
"Wei Ding, my family has prohibited me from going out these past few days. Today, I was just allowed to leave, so I came to see you."
After inviting Song Wen to take a seat, Xing Chang continued.
"I didn''t know why Young Master Xing sought me out," Song Wen asked.
Xing Chang replied, "It''s nothing important; I just wanted to express my gratitude for saving my life. I promised to reward you back then, and today I am here to fulfill that promise."
Saying this, he threw a storage bag to Song Wen.
Seeing the self-satisfied look on Xing Chang''s face, Song Wen assumed the storage bag contained something valuable.
However, after using his spiritual sense to examine the bag, Song Wen couldn''t help but twitch his lips slightly.
Inside the storage bag were only a hundred medium-quality spirit stones.
He had saved this person twice, yet he only received a hundred medium-quality spirit stones!
Did Xing Chang think his life was worthless?
Or was he unaware of the value of things, not knowing the worth of a hundred medium-quality spirit stones?
Or perhaps, Xing Chang was so used to being proud that he couldn''t help but act superior?
"Thank you, Young Master Xing, for your generous gift," Song Wen said with a cupped fist.
Xing Chang waved his hand, saying, "Just a few spirit stones, not worth mentioning."
Song Wen was taken aback.
A few spirit stones, not worth mentioning!
He could have given a little more.
Xing Chang continued, "Have you settled down in Fang City?"
"I''ve rented a cave dwelling," Song Wen replied vaguely, not revealing the exact location of his dwelling.
Xing Chang nodded, "That''s good. In the future, there will be matters I can''t handle personally, and I may have to rely on you. Don''t worry; you will be rewarded well for assisting me."
Song Wen replied, "Thank you for your consideration, Young Master Xing."
"Hmm!" Xing Chang nodded, sped his hands behind his back, and left the private room.
Watching Xing Chang''s departing figure, Song Wen understood one thing.
The reason he offered a hundred medium-quality spirit stones was likely not out of gratitude, but to keep Song Wen hanging so that he would continue to assist him in the future.
...
That night.
Wearing an iron mask, Song Wen arrived at the Dark Star ck Market.
The Dark Star ck Market is located at the foot of a high mountain cliff and covers arge area, bustling with people.
If it weren''t for the fact that the ck market only opened at night, Song Wen would suspect it was an ordinary marketce, not a ck market.
The open and conspicuous nature of the ck market indicated one thing: it had a strong backing and didn''t need to hide anything.
Most of the peopleing and going in the ck market wore masks or cloaks, concealing their identities and appearances.
Song Wen entered a spirit herb shop called "Hundred Herbs Pavilion," thergest spirit herb shop in the ck market.
"Wee, what spirit herbs would you like to buy?"
Seeing Song Wen enter, a young shop assistant stepped forward to ask.
Song Wen looked around the shop. The variety of spirit herbs on disy was dazzling, but there were few third-tier herbs avable.
He asked the assistant, "Do you have Golden Spirit Seed, Profound Spirit Root, or Life Reversing Pearl?"
"Are you a refining master?" the assistant countered instead of answering.
Song Wen frowned and replied in a deep voice, "Is it difficult for your shop to sell things without probing into the customer''s background?"
The assistant hurriedly exined, "Senior, please don''t misunderstand. The spirit herbs you require are all third-tier herbs and rare among them; they rarely appear in the market, and our shop doesn''t have them either."
"Several years ago, my youngdy issued a bounty. She has an ancient iplete form, and if you canplete the form, our shop will certainly provide the spirit herbs you seek."
Hearing this, Song Wen shook his head and turned to leave.
Completing an ancient iplete form is not an easy task.
Moreover, even if luck was on his side and he happened toplete the form, a few spirit herbs from Hundred Herbs Pavilion would hardly meet his needs.
He was refining Golden Jade Pill and Qi Spirit Pill for sale to earn spirit stones.
A small amount of Golden Spirit Seed, Profound Spirit Root, and Life Reversing Pearl were of little use to him.
Seeing Song Wen about to leave, the assistant seemed to have determined that Song Wen was a high-level refining master and hurriedly spoke up.
"Wait a moment, Senior! If you are dissatisfied with the reward, the youngdy specifically instructed that we could also offer Xuan Yin Stone and Sand Crystal aspensation. I won''t take up too much of your time; you just need to take a look at the iplete form and think it over when you have time. If one day you gain some insight, our shop will surely honor our promise."
Song Wen paused and turned to look at the assistant.
Xuan Yin Stone and Sand Crystal were indeed items he urgently needed.
The former was essential for refining third-tier Silver Corpses.
With more Xuan Yin Stone, he could refine more powerful third-tier Silver Corpses and also enhance the strength of his existing Silver Corpses.
Sand Crystal, on the other hand, was a crystal formed from the concentrated aura of corpse energy, containing arge amount of pure corpse qi, making it the best supplement for corpse cultivators at the Gold Core stage.
That Hundred Herbs Pavilion could offer Xuan Yin Stone and Sand Crystal as rewards indicated that the shop had a strong background, or that the youngdy mentioned by the assistant had a significant demonic influence.
@@novelbin@@
Ordinary demonic cultivators wouldn''t be able to produce Xuan Yin Stone and Sand Crystal.
Seeing that Song Wen had stopped, the assistant''s face lit up with joy as he quickly took out a piece of yellowed paper.
The paper in his hand was not an ancient form but rather a rubbing.
The ancient form was severely iplete, involving more than thirty kinds of spirit materials, with ten missing, meaning nearly a third was lost.
The chances ofpleting it were slim to none.
The product refined from this form was not a medicinal pill but rather a potion used for tempering the physical body, specifically designed for corpse cultivators.
With just a quick nce, Song Wen immediately recognized this iplete form because he had seen theplete version.
This was the recipe for "Corpse Curse Water" from the "Corpse King Rebirth Technique," used for tempering the physical body.
To fully unleash the power of Corpse Curse Water, it must bebined with the "Corpse King Rebirth Technique."
Song Wen couldn''t help but feel surprised. How did the recipe for Corpse Curse Water end up in the Chaotic Sea?
Could it be that someone from the Nether Shrine brought it to the Chaotic Sea?
Since someone had obtained the recipe for Corpse Curse Water, did they also possess the techniques of the "Corpse King Rebirth Technique"?
Was the iplete recipe truly an attempt toplete it, or was it a ploy to draw out someone who held theplete technique?
<strong>TLN:</strong>Damn, I wouldn''t have thought of thatst bit... Considering this, would you take the risk? I wouldn''t...
