That was the main reason he dared to make deals with Dong Qiyu.
No risk involved and it would allow him to exchange the spirit chickens he had on hand for spirit stones. Why wouldn’t he be thrilled?
The only thing that made Wang Ba uneasy was that Dong Qiyu seed to be showing up too frequently of late.
“Wasn’t it just a little over two months ago since his last visit? He seems to be in quite a rush…”
Recalling the large quantity of spirit chickens Dong Qiyu had been buying, he couldn’t help but rember what Bai Yu ntioned earlier. After Lu Yuansheng has just entered the Golden Core stage, he would surely assert his authority by cracking down on the practitioners of the Incense Fire Dao.
He had a vague feeling that so turbulent tis were looming ahead.
Indeed, as expected.
Half a month later.
A new mission notification was updated on his Heavenly Gate Order.
It called upon the heretic cultivators from the five stationed areas to co and assassinate Incense-burning Dao cultivators. They would be ranked based on the number of kills they successfuly executed. The top three would be rewarded with Foundation Establishnt Pills!
In addition, regardless of whether they were heretics or from within the Cult, Foundation Establishnt Competitors that went out to assassinate Incense- burning Dao cultivators would be able to obtain nurous treasures.
Upgraded version of the Blood Pill called Class II Blood Yuan Seed, high-quality Class II Human Puppets, top-quality dual cultivation cauldrons, Class II bone sources, Class II magic tools, Class II elixirs, and more…
Seeing those rewards, Wang Ba could imagine just how wild the cultivators from the five stationed areas would go!
So of those rewards were so tempting that even he could hardly resist the urge to step out into the action.
However, fortunately, he was well aware of his own ability.
Despite being able to rush to the Foundation Establishnt realm non-stop, aside from chicken breeding and beast control, his skills in other aspects like spells, combat consciousness, or other cultivator skills were among the weakest among cultivators.
At most, he could rely on his realm to bully Qi refining cultivators. If he were truly asked to fight a Foundation Establishnt Competitor, he would be completely dependent on the likes of Jia 15 and the squad.
Therefore, he specifically sought out Bai Yu.
“Rest assured, I have already spoken to Elder Bei. Neither you nor your Dao companion need to participate in this mission. You will not lose any opportunities.”
Before Wang Ba had a chance to say anything, Bai Yu had already guessed his intentions.
“Thanks, Mr. Bai!”
However, Bai Yu seed to have realized sothing imdiately, his tone full of surprise: “You…have established your foundation?”
“Indeed, thanks to Mr. Bai’s kindness, after taking that Foundation Establishnt Pill, I endured so hardships and, fortunately, broke through.”
Wang Ba showed a smile, bowing his hands in salute.
Unexpectedly, Bai Yu slightly sidestepped, avoiding the salute.
“Now that you have establish the foundation, we are of the sa generation. I can’t accept your grand courtesy. Besides, that pill was given by Elder Lu, I was just an interdiary.”
“Furthermore, there’s no need to call senior, we can address each other as Dao friends.”
Then, there was a hint of emotion in Bai Yu’s words:
“I never thought that you, among the East Saint Station’s ranks, have actually surpassed the majority.”
Wang Ba also felt a touch of lancholy.
Back in the days when he had just joined the Tiann Cult, he had not long begun his cultivation and had just reached Qi Refining Stage I. People like Dong Qiyu and ng Randao, on the other hand, were already in Qi Refining Stage X.
Now, Dong Qiyu is still stuck in Qi Refining Stage X, while he has already achieved Foundation Establishnt a step ahead.
Let alone people like Jing Kuang.
All one could say was the Dao of Cultivation, a mont of superiority does not indicate much.
Having obtained the assurance he wanted from Bai Yu,
Wang Ba patiently waited for so ti before Bu Chan finally returned.
Feeling the remnants of mana fluctuations on Bu Chan, Wang Ba couldn’t help but reveal a smile:
“Congratulations, Junior Sister.”
“Senior Brother…”
The joy and longing in Bu Chan’s eyes were so intense they couldn’t be dissolved.
Ever since they beca Dao companions, they had never been apart for so long.
Naturally, their little wooden house began shaking once again.
A few days later.
It was the day for the teleportation array to be activated again.
A large number of cultivators from other stations flooded into the East Saint Station.
Whereas Wang Ba, by himself, was teleported to Jiantao Station.
He wandered around Taosheng Market for half a day, and finally found his target in a deserted alleyway.
Bao Chao, one of the few spiritual cooks in the Tiann Cult.
Perhaps it’s because a large number of cultivators had gone to the East Saint Station, Bao Chao, who didn’t have a bustling business to begin with, was now even more desolate, and was idly tossing a knife.
Upon seeing Wang Ba from afar, Bao Chao imdiately perked up and started calling out to him:
“Haha, Wang, here for making spirit chicken essence again? Tsk, I don’t know where you get all these spirit chickens and spirit turtles. Every ti I help you, I’m both happy and scared. It’s exhausting!”
However, Wang Ba walked over with a smile: “Haha, not exactly. This ti, I ca to learn the art of a spiritual cook from you.”
Hearing this, Bao Chao’s face imdiately turned sour:
“Get lost, you brat! How many tis have I told you? This is my ace in the hole. If I teach you, how am I supposed to survive!”
Upon hearing Bao Chao’s crude words, Wang Ba remained calm, quietly looking at him.
Bao Chao continued to grumble, but as he grumbled, his voice gradually lowered.
He subtly sensed sothing was off.
This Wang, seed to have changed since the last ti he saw him.
Quickly, he realized what the change was: “Foundation Establishnt! Have you reached the Foundation Establishnt stage?!”
He couldn’t help but widen his eyes!
Seeing Wang Ba smiling without saying a word, he was startled and hurriedly bowed in respect: “Please forgive , senior! Please forgive ! I was confused and offended senior. I hope you can spare considering I used to make spirit chicken essence for you.”
If a Qi Refining cultivator openly insults a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, even if they were killed on the spot, the Tiann Cult would not bla the Foundation Establishnt cultivator excessively.
Of course, this was not Wang Ba’s intention. He smiled and stopped Bao Chao from continuing his bowing.
“Bao, you worry too much. I am only here to learn the art of spiritual cooking, will you grant permission?”
“This…”
Upon hearing these words, a struggle appeared on Bao Chao’s face.
Although he was scared of being bullied by a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, he was even more reluctant to have his skills learnt by others.
After all, the Tiann Cult is a Demon Dao sect, and very few people rely on consuming the spirit food to cultivate. The market was only this big. If he taught others, his own business would be stolen. Without the resources provided by this business, his cultivation would inevitably co to an end.
In such a case, it would be better to be dead than alive.
However, Wang Ba saw through his worries and laughed: “How about this, I will give you fifty middle grade spirit stones as a tuition fee. Also, I guarantee that I will not compete with you for business within the Tiann Cult.”
“This…this…”
Upon hearing this, Bao Chao’s face revealed a look of temptation.
Fifty middle-grade spirit stones, that was no small inco.
Even for him, although his prices were high, after subtracting the costs, he didn’t make that much even after a year of hard work.
The key was that Wang Ba also promised not to compete with him for business within the Tiann Cult. This seed to have resolved his worries.
Still, he was not reassured and gritted his teeth to muster his courage:
“Senior…Can you swear byyour Heart Demon for what you just said?”
Wang Ba smiled slightly: “No problem!”
After saying this, he imdiately swore a curse on his Heart Demon.
“…In any case, if I, Wang Ba, make spirit food for others within the Tiann Cult, during cultivation there shall be Heart Demon chaos, my soul will shatter, and mana shall rupture and cause to die!”
The poison of the oath set Bao Chao’s nerves on edge.
However, he finally put his mind at ease.
He then respectfully stepped aside:
Please, follow , senior.’
