In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
Su Bai opened her eyes from Cultivation.
"Even with careful saving, Huanglong Pill is still expensive!"
As early as two years ago, Su Bai had already reached Qi Refining Stage - Mid Phase.
The Huanglong Pill truly lives up to its reputation as an excellent dicinal Pill for the Qi Refinent Stage!
With her Five Spiritual Roots, her Cultivation should have been as slow as a turtle.
Yet, now it was as fast as it was during the Qi Refining.
It was just that the dicinal Pills were incredibly expensive.
She was frugal.
She could only afford to buy one every month.
"This is all to quickly improve my Cultivation Realm."
After comforting herself, she prepared to go out.
By this ti, Su Bai no longer lived in the dilapidated wooden hut by the Spiritual Field.
The Purple Bamboo Immortal Market had beco quite lively in the past two years.
But it was also very dangerous outside.
To ensure her personal safety, Su Bai had resigned from her position as a Lin Family Spiritual Farr.
Instead, she rented a house in the Market and beca a Loose Cultivator Alchemist.
She mainly sold Low Grade first-tier dicinal Pills.
Occasionally, she would sell so dium Grade first-tier dicinal Pills.
She was able to sustain herself.
To the west of the Market was a mountain range.
That place produced various Spirit dicine and Yao Beast Materials.
Su Bai didn't need to go out and take risks; she could buy many things she needed in the Market.
It didn't delay her Cultivation at all.
After finishing her Cultivation, Su Bai went to the teahouse for tea as usual.
Not long after she sat down, an Old Daoist who looked like an immortal but whose robes were faded from washing walked over.
He sat opposite Su Bai.
"Fellow Daoist Su, you're in good spirits today, coming for tea so early."
Seeing the person, Su Bai politely nodded.
"I can't compare to your carefree nature, Daoist Yang."
Yang Kai was soone Su Bai t after moving to the Market.
He often bought dicinal Pills from her.
Although he was a Loose Cultivator, he was also a great Cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase.
He usually enjoyed making many Fellow Daoists.
He beca acquainted with Su Bai because he knew she was a first-tier dium Grade Alchemist.
She had value for networking.
"Haha, I'm just here to mooch so tea, so I'm not that carefree. Fellow Daoist Su, you don't mind, do you?"
Yang the Old Daoist said this, but he had already brewed a pot of tea for himself.
Su Bai didn't mind having a pot of Spiritual Tea mooched.
For a Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Cultivator to sit and drink tea with her, a Qi Refining Stage - Mid Phase Cultivator, he was already a very kind person.
"Of course, I don't mind."
The two hadn't been sitting for long when two more people walked over.
A man and a woman.
The man had a resolute expression, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes.
Although not handso, he was very pleasant to look at.
The woman always had a slight smile on her lips, and her eyes were full of affection.
They were a Dao Companion.
These two also ca and sat at Su Bai's table.
The male Cultivator cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist Su, Daoist Yang, we're not late, are we?"
"No, please sit, Fellow Daoist Lu, Fellow Daoist Shen."
Su Bai gestured for the two to take their seats.
These two were also at the Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Realm; the man was nad Lu Ning, and the woman was nad Shen Fang.
They usually went to the mountain range to the west to hunt Yao Beasts or search for Spirit dicine.
Su Bai also t them through Yang the Old Daoist.
The four of them were a small group.
As an Alchemist, Su Bai often cooperated with this Dao Companion.
She could buy the Yao Beasts and Spirit dicine they obtained firsthand.
Today, the four of them sat here drinking tea.
They were mainly discussing recent events in the Market and exchanging Cultivation experiences.
Su Bai had the lowest Cultivation Realm, and with three Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Cultivators present, she could naturally avoid many detours.
Yang the Old Daoist often wandered around the Market, so he was very well-inford.
Lu Ning and Shen Fang usually worked hard outside.
They were also very sensitive to the movents of Loose Cultivators outside.
These three Fellow Daoists, one could say, were people Su Bai intentionally befriended.
They allowed her to know the surrounding movents even while staying at ho.
Today's gathering was organized by Yang the Old Daoist.
He had received a piece of news.
"Recently, there seems to be news of Evil Cultivators around the Market…"
Yang the Old Daoist looked in Lu Ning's direction as he spoke.
As a Loose Cultivator who frequently went out, Lu Ning should be more knowledgeable about this matter.
Su Bai also looked at Lu Ning at this ti, wanting to know if this news was true.
If there really were Evil Cultivators nearby, Su Bai's recently stable life would surely be shattered.
Lu Ning looked around, then waved his hand to set up a sound-insulating Formation.
"That is true; many Loose Cultivators outside no longer dare to go out."
"Fang'er and I also returned early for this reason."
Seeing Lu Ning nod, Su Bai's heart sank.
However, Yang the Old Daoist then said, "You don't need to worry too much. Although our Zhang Country is located in a remote area, it also has the Six Upper Sects."
"They won't let Evil Cultivators act recklessly. I believe a patrol team will co to investigate the Evil Cultivators soon."
But Yang the Old Daoist's words did not bring comfort.
Yang the Old Daoist knew that Evil Cultivators had their own information channels.
And Lu Ning and his wife also learned about this from the Loose Cultivator circles outside.
So, the matter of Evil Cultivators near the Immortal Market was basically confird.
Su Bai tapped her head, a little troubled.
It was frustrating.
The atmosphere at the tea table suddenly quieted down because of the Evil Cultivators.
As if to liven the mood again, Yang the Old Daoist took a sip of tea.
He spoke sowhat mysteriously, "Evil Cultivators are still far from us."
"The Purple Bamboo Immortal Market's mountain-protecting Formation can even withstand attacks from a Foundation Establishnt - Middle Stage Cultivator. That Evil Cultivator is said to have suffered severe injuries and is no longer even at the Foundation Establishnt Realm."
"There's no need to worry, and what's more, we still have three great Foundation Establishnt Families here!"
"However, I have good news for you, Fellow Daoist Su. In a couple of days, I'll recomnd a mysterious client to you."
"That person is quite wealthy, not soone an Old Daoist like can compare to."
At the end, he even winked at Su Bai, leaving her room for imagination.
Lu Ning and Shen Fang also seed to have thought of the three great Foundation Establishnt Families and the mountain-protecting Formation.
Their mood suddenly improved a lot.
Su Bai also smiled along, but she couldn't really smile.
In Su Bai's eyes, the mountain-protecting Formation that Yang the Old Daoist spoke of was like a piece of garbage.
If that Formation was really that powerful, how did Zhou Changzai manage to snatch those few shops in the Immortal Market?
Although there were occasional minor frictions, the three great Foundation Establishnt Families never dared to completely fall out with Zhou Changzai.
Although there were also so considerations of interest, the three great Foundation Establishnt Families had already taken root in the Immortal Market.
They didn't want to abandon the territory their Family had painstakingly managed for many years.
This factor existed, but what was its proportion?
To be able to swallow their anger in front of a Foundation Establishnt - Middle Stage Cultivator.
Although Yang the Old Daoist said that the Evil Cultivator was now severely injured, having fallen from his Realm, his Foundation Establishnt Cultivation was basically crippled.
But that was still not soone a Qi Refining Stage - Mid Phase Cultivator like herself could provoke.
She still needed to take precautions.
While Su Bai was thinking, Yang the Old Daoist looked at Su Bai.
"How about it? I, an Old Daoist, have owed you a few dicinal Pills in the past, Fellow Daoist Su."
"But I, an Old Daoist, am not such a fickle and ungrateful person."
"The client I'm introducing to you this ti will definitely bring you a great profit!"
Yang the Old Daoist vigorously boasted about the client he had yet to introduce.
Su Bai naturally couldn't refuse him his Face.
She put down her teacup and showed a slight smile.
Su Bai softly said, "Since Daoist Yang says so, then I am very much looking forward to it."
