"Fang Bai, your willingness to offer up these cultivation resources truly demonstrates your sincerity and selflessness. If the Palace Master learns of this, he will surely be greatly comforted. However, rest assured that at Lingxu Palace, we never shortchange disciples who make contributions. These cultivation resources will be placed here for now, and once the Palace Master returns, we will redistribute them. You will certainly not be left out!"
With the recent massive assault by the Soul Summoning Hall repelled and Fang Bai surviving a great calamity to present treasures, Yun Feng was in high spirits and did not hold back his praise for Fang Bai.
Fang Bai rely smiled at Elder Yun’s praise.
"By the way, why do I not see the Palace Master, Elder Sun, and Elder Wu?"
Fang Bai looked around and asked.
In fact, Fang Bai arrived near Lingxu Palace ahead of the tens of thousands of disciples from the Soul Summoning Hall. When Yin Lengyue led the disciples from the Soul Summoning Hall in a major attack on Lingxu Palace, Fang Bai hid in the shadows and used the Beast Taming Scripture to control tens of thousands of Fire Fierce Bees to attack the disciples of the Soul Summoning Hall. It was only after the disciples of the Soul Summoning Hall retreated that he appeared at Lingxu Palace.
As for the matter of Li Sanfu and Wu Zhihua, Sun Jing taking the "Golden Crow teor" to the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion in Flaming Sun City to ask for help in refining a spirit pill, Fang Bai was already aware of it.
At this mont, Fang Bai was inquiring about the whereabouts of Li Sanfu and others, actually intending to use it as an excuse to make a trip to Flaming Sun City.
Inside Fang Bai’s Space Ring was the corpse of a Green Tail Wolf. Although the flesh, muscles, and bones of a Golden Core Realm Green Tail Wolf were coveted treasures in the eyes of many martial artists, they were of no use to Fang Bai, who had already absorbed and refined the Golden Core of the Green Tail Wolf.
Moreover, the fresher the corpse of the Green Tail Wolf, the more it aids martial artists in cultivation. If stored for too long, its value would greatly diminish.
Fang Bai planned to use the corpse of the Green Tail Wolf to exchange for so cultivation resources he needed in Flaming Sun City.
As for the Spirit Core of the Green Tail Wolf, although it couldn’t compare to the Golden Core, it was also an essence of the Green Tail Wolf. Fang Bai planned to keep it for his own cultivation use.
"The Palace Master and Elder Sun, Elder Wu have gone to Flaming Sun City..."
Yun Feng recounted to Fang Bai the matter of Li Sanfu and others going to the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion in Flaming Sun City to seek spirit pills, and finally asked, "Do you have business with them?"
Fang Bai replied, "I heard there are quite a few alchemists in Flaming Sun City; I want to go and have a look. Firstly, to broaden my knowledge and make so friends; secondly, to seek so advice from those alchemists to improve my alchemy technique."
"This..."
Yun Feng frowned slightly, thinking that it was fine for him to go broaden his knowledge and make friends, but he would likely be disappointed seeking alchemists for alchemy advice.
Alchemists rely on their alchemy techniques to acquire abundant cultivation resources and build extensive networks. They are among the richest in the world but also the most stingy and miserly, with few willing to impart their alchemy techniques to others.
Other stewards within the Palace Master Hall also felt Fang Bai was a bit naive.
However, Yun Feng and others wouldn’t prevent Fang Bai from going to Flaming Sun City. After all, Fang Bai had previously refined Holy Grade Elixirs, and letting him visit a place filled with alchemists like Flaming Sun City to expand his horizons would be beneficial without harm.
"Well, it’s good to go and see... When do you plan to depart? I will choose a few people to accompany you so that you can travel together and look after each other if sothing happens!"
Yun Feng thought for a mont and said to Fang Bai.
Although the thousands of disciples from the Soul Summoning Hall who ca in an attacking wave had retreated, Yun Feng was worried they might bear a grudge and secretly attack Lingxu Palace disciples in revenge, sothing that couldn’t be ignored.
Fang Bai smiled and asked, "Elder Yun, can I choose the people who accompany to Flaming Sun City?"
Yun Feng was taken aback but quickly understood and laughed, "You sly boy, you still want to team up with Sun Lin, Shi Ming, Zheng Hong, and Huang Zhong, don’t you?"
Fang Bai complinted, "You truly understand , Elder Yun!"
Once more, praise showed in Yun Feng’s eyes, as he said, "Doing so shows you are a very loyal person, which is comndable! However... your group’s strength is a bit lacking, which worries for the journey. So, I will assign two stewards to accompany you! How about departing tomorrow?"
"Couldn’t be better! Thank you, Elder Yun, for your care!"
Fang Bai naturally would not refuse Elder Yun’s kind intentions.
At that mont, familiar martial artist auras ca from the foot of the mountain, stirring Fang Bai’s heart and bringing a smile to his lips.
"Elder Yun, Sun Lin, Shi Ming, Zheng Hong, Huang Zhong, the four disciples, seek an audience at the foot of the mountain!"
A disciple responsible for guarding the mountain base entered the hall and reported.
"Haha, we just ntioned them, and now they are here! No need to say, they must be looking for you! Go on! Go on!"
Yun Feng waved Fang Bai away, saying, "We have matters to discuss; go down the mountain and talk to them."
Fang Bai had this intention, so he clasped his fists and exited the Palace Master Hall, heading to the foot of the mountain with the guarding disciple.
When eting Sun Lin, Shi Ming, Zheng Hong, and Huang Zhong at the foot of the mountain, the five were overjoyed, naturally leading to so small talk.
After hearing about Fang Bai’s experiences in White Bone Gully and the rare cultivation resources he brought back, Sun Lin was both surprised and delighted, exclaiming, "They say ’having escaped calamity, blessings will follow!’ Junior Brother Fang, you can say you turned misfortune into a blessing!"
Fang Bai humbly replied with a few words, and then ntioned the matter of traveling to Flaming Sun City the next day, finally asking, "If any of you do not wish to go, speak up now."
"Only a fool wouldn’t go!"
"Exactly! Flaming Sun City is a bustling tropolis with millions of martial artists gathered—it’d be a waste not to go!"
"The last ti I went to Flaming Sun City was two years ago! I saw a spiritual artifact at the Martial Artists Trading Market, but unfortunately, I didn’t have enough cultivation resources to exchange for it! I’ll try my luck again this ti!"
"I’ve never been to Flaming Sun City! I hear there are alchemists, artifact refiners, beast tars, array masters, and even Golden Core Realm experts! I just want to see for myself!"
...
Sun Lin and the others eagerly responded, insisting that they would go with Fang Bai to Flaming Sun City no matter what.
The journey to Flaming Sun City was tens of thousands of miles away, and since Lingxu Palace disciples were usually restricted to traveling within ten thousand miles for training, only Sun Lin and Zheng Hong among the five had the opportunity to visit before.
Huang Zhong, a nial servant disciple, and Shi Ming, a newly admitted disciple, had never been to Flaming Sun City, but they often heard fellow disciples talk about the city’s prosperity and the gathering of powerful people, which piqued their interest.
This opportunity that Fang Bai secured for them, they certainly would not miss.
Thus, the five went back to their respective residences to rest and recover, preparing to set off early the next morning.
That night, Fang Bai drank a few sips of Spiritual Spring in his bamboo house and refined the Spirit Core of the Green Tail Wolf.
Both the Spiritual Spring and the Green Tail Wolf Spirit Core were excellent items. Although they couldn’t help Fang Bai break through to the next realm, they were extrely useful in consolidating his current cultivation level.
After a night of cultivation, Fang Bai felt refreshed, and his realm was thoroughly solidified, slightly enhancing his combat power.
