Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 423 - 34 Surprise_2
Chapter 423: Chapter 34 Surprise_2
It’s really too conspicuous.
Although he really wanted to get his hands on a Class III Inner Core, he didn’t need to risk Zhao Feng’s safety.
Instead, they might as well take a trip to Huifeng Valley together, perhaps then they would be able to obtain a Class III Inner Core.
At least compared with Chu, Yan State wasn’t as dangerous.
“By the way, senior brother, what’s your current strength level?”
Wang Ba asked curiously.
Zhao Feng replied somewhat uncertainly to this question, “I… I’m not entirely sure. However, when it came to the creature at the bottom of the lake, I felt that at its peak, it wouldn’t have been able to withstand three of my sword strikes.”
“Of course, this is assuming it doesn’t have any other methods.”
Upon hearing Zhao Feng’s words, Wang Ba’s eyes lit up.
Yuan Wenzhi’s Cultivation Base was at the middle-stage of the Golden Core, as a Rogue Cultivator, his Core Grade only reached six-grade. Such a cultivation base, within Yan State, even if it wasn’t ranked in the top ten, it should at least be within the top twenty.
Not to mention, the three major sects and the Zhenling Palace all suffered significant losses in the recent conflict. The Danlong School, which originally had five Golden Core Real People, was now only left with Master Zhang.
The overall strength of Yan State had shrunk unprecedentedly.
If Zhao Feng could defeat Yuan Wenzhi with just three sword strikes, in terms of strength alone, there were definitely not more than five people in the whole of Yan State who could surpass him.
With such a cultivation base, he could be dominant in Yan State.
He wouldn’t need to care about what others thought of him any longer.
With this realization, Wang Ba felt more confident.
But for now, with the Wu Monkey King still recovering, he wasn’t in a rush.
“Senior brother, what’s your Core Grade?”
Wang Ba asked curiously.
Zhao Feng didn’t hide anything: “You know that my foundation is the Soul Nurturing Bead so it doesn’t really have a Core Grade. Though, thanks to numerous resources bestowed by Master, if measured by Core Grade, it wouldn’t be much different from a Class I Golden Core.”
Class I Golden Core?!
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba immediately looked envious.
More importantly, the feeling of being able to obtain resources effortlessly, wasn’t it a bit too nice?
So this is the advantage of having a master?
Sure enough, joining a Sect was the wisest choice.
Wang Ba found himself yearning for this. When would he be able to enjoy such treatment?
However, thinking about how he would soon be able to cultivate the Wu Monkey King into a Class III, and then he would also have a master to guide him, Wang Ba felt a wave of anticipation.
Even if his master couldn’t compare to Zhao Feng’s master, it shouldn’t… there couldn’t be much of a difference, right?
Yes, there shouldn’t be a difference.
After all, Tang Ji had promised to find good teachers to accept disciples.
They chatted casually for a while longer.
Then, they each focused on their cultivating and other tasks.
Wang Ba also took the opportunity to inspect the treasures in Yuan Wenzhi’s Storage Treasure.
There were about ten or so Upper-grade Spirit Stones, a pile of Middle and Lower-grade Spirit Stones, and half of the Essence of the Spirit Chickens that he had given to Yuan Wenzhi earlier. He figured the other half had probably ended up in Zhang Tailai’s hands, and were now likely deposited in the treasury of the three major sects.
There were also several Class III talismans, but they were of not a great value because they were all auxiliary in nature.
Jade slips and rubbings on gold paper were quite plentiful.
Some of the jade slips had been used, while others were still brand new.
There were also some spirit materials that went with the jade slips, likely for cultivating powerful Class III spells.
But seeing that not many spirit materials had been used, Yuan Wenzhi probably gave up cultivating this spell because he lacked the strength to continue.
Such was the norm in a cultivator’s life of cultivation.
Even real people of the Golden Core stage are full of renunciations and helplessness.
In addition to this, there was a number of Class I and Class II magic tools, elixirs, and even an extremely old genealogy of the mortal Yuan family in the Storage Ring and Storage Bag.
You could tell that Yuan Wenzhi was a man who cherished the past.
However, this didn’t evoke much emotion from Wang Ba.
Everyone had a soft and warm side, but they also had to pay the price for the outcome of their actions.
Wang Ba gathered up the things that were useful to him.
His greatest gain was the three-grade middle grade magic brush that belonged to Yuan Wenzhi.
But there was nowhere to sell it now, otherwise, it could have been sold.
After collecting these items, he started making healing medicines for the Wu Monkey King and Boli.
Boli’s beak was wounded, but it was not a crucial injury, so the medicine was simple. He just used some spiritual materials along with a spiritual ointment to bandage up Boli’s beak, and it would be removed when it had recovered.
For Spirit Beasts, even without eating, they could maintain their basic survival needs by passively absorbing Spiritual Energy.
The situation with the Wu Monkey King, however, was a bit more complicated.
“Blood Growing Grass, thousand-year ginseng, spirit bone of black tiger…”
Luckily, Wang Ba had accumulated a fair amount of spirit materials and spiritual medicines over the years in Yan state, and he could barely gather all the ingredients.
After another two days spent refining, he finally managed to successfully produce several doses of a black ointment.
Wang Ba spread it all over the Wu Monkey King.
“Acting recklessly is not always a bad thing, but you have to use those spells that I taught you. Look at you, if you had used the ‘Golden Armor Concealment Skill’ at the time, you wouldn’t have suffered so much damage.”
Wang Ba was administering medicine to the Wu Monkey King and seeing the shocking wounds on its body, he knew that it would be difficult for the creature to heal itself from the damage inflicted at the Class III stage. He couldn’t help but sigh in sympathy.
While Wang Ba was scolding him, the Wu Monkey King listened obediently without any hint of the demonic rage he had shown when he had transformed into the Demon Ape.
Yet, it often grimaced with pain, letting Wang Ba know that the Wu Monkey King was really hurt badly this time.
After all, when the Wu Monkey King had battled with Zheng Yuanhua of Incense Fire Dao, despite having all the flesh from his arm scraped clean, he had not even furrowed his brow.
