My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 461 - 182: Daze Fang City, Golden Bow and Silver Bullet_5

Over a million had perished.

Such a large-scale Blood Sacrifice was not a method that should exist among mortals. Coupled with years of accumulating strength, who knows what would happen after the war began. It was truly urgent to make a breakthrough to the Martial Saint Realm!

Since Martial Artists in the Transcendent Realm had little use in the Cultivation World, the price of this pill recipe was not too expensive, exactly twenty low-grade Spirit Stones.

It was just that it still required the collection of a Pill Furnace and the necessary materials.

"Regarding the Pill Furnace, I recommend this one for two hundred Spirit Stones,"

the female cultivator introduced, "It’s sufficient for refining all First-rank Elixirs."

"..."

Chen Sansi felt a toothache, greatly disappointed in his heart.

Does starting a foundation in the Cultivation World require so many Spirit Stones?

That’s also true.

If it were that easy, then no one would do jobs like mining and farming.

In the end, he tentatively asked, "Must special Pill Furnaces be used for Alchemy?

Would the incense burners of the Incense Fire Divine Sect work?

If it was possible, he could try to bring one back when he returned and then figure out a way to remove the tracking marks on it.

The answer he received was negative.

"Of course, specific Pill Furnaces are needed. The quality of the Pill Furnace will affect the rate and quality of the pills. Otherwise, wouldn’t any piece of iron used to craft Magic Artifacts be turned into a container shape and be used for Alchemy?"

"Alright."

Chen Sansi wasn’t surprised; this was corroborated by the fact that there was no difference in the effects of the Spiritual Rice Medicine Ointment made with the Mystic Iron Furnace and the incense burner previously. Since that was the case, he could only decide to buy what was available on hand.

Luckily, the price was relatively cheap, with five Spirit Stones he could buy one.

"Do you have Elixir Pills for breaking through the Late-stage Transcendent Realm?"

"Late-stage Transcendent, that’s a First-rank top-grade Elixir, of course we have it,"

the female cultivator said as she presented a porcelain bottle, "This pill is called ’True Martial Pill’, also from the Hundred Elixir Workshop. Each is two hundred Spirit Stones. After taking it, someone with sufficient qualification can greatly shorten the time needed for cultivation. Even for cultivators with insufficient qualification, there is a one-in-a-hundred chance to break through to the True Power Realm."

Two hundred?

It’s the same price as the Pill Furnace, outrageously expensive.

But upon further thought...

The precious aspect of this Elixir seemed to be the one percent chance of allowing those with insufficient qualification to break through to the Martial Saint Realm.

And beyond Martial Saint, one could attain a position in Daze Fang City.

It must be designed for Martial Cultivators with inadequate qualifications to gamble upon.

With such a low probability, who knows if anyone would gamble on it.

That being said.

Just from the gap in the cost of necessary resources, it’s evident that First Realm and Second Realm of Martial Arts are entirely on different levels, probably a world apart, and it must also involve the realms above Martial Saint.

After all, a Transcendent Warrior from the First Realm can hardly withstand the attacks from spells, their usefulness in the Cultivation World being quite limited.

His Middle-grade Spirit Stone, at best, was worth about thirty Spirit Stones.

It was impossible to afford it.

At the very least, he could afford "Nourishing Vitality Pills" that would allow a quick breakthrough to Great Perfection in the Profound Image Realm, and his trip would not be in vain.

Chen Sansi immediately took out a Middle-grade Spirit Stone.

The remnants of Spiritual Power inside were not much. In the end, he could only exchange it for thirty-two low-grade spirit stones and then spent twenty Spirit Stones to purchase four Nourishing Vitality Pills, leaving only fourteen Spirit Stones on him.

Cash changed hands.

After the transaction was complete.

Chen Sansi packed up his belongings and rode Qian Xun to leave Daze Fang City.

On his way down the mountain, he saw the busy figures of cultivators in the shanty areas.

Some were carrying back demon beasts, bearing wounds on their bodies.

Others returned with their faces covered in dirt, recounting the torments and sudden dangers inside the spirit stone mines.

There were also cultivators carrying back the corpses of their companions, their expressions somber.

"Your Cave Mansion’s lease is up!"

"Give me a few more days, I’ll take on a bounty, and I’ll have enough Spirit Stones within a month!"

"Less nonsense! Then come back and rent it again after a month!"

Several Law Enforcement Deacons, without further discussion, ejected a Loose Cultivator from the workshop.

The scenes before him further solidified Chen Sansi’s resolve to leave this place; it seemed to have a foothold in the Cultivation World, one must either break through to the True Power Realm in Martial Arts or master a Cultivation Technique.

Otherwise, one would fall into a vicious cycle of struggling.

He had plenty to do back in Liangzhou, and holding a Jade Token allowed him to travel freely without waiting fifty years. So it was better to wait until he had broken through to the Martial Saint Realm before returning.

Leaving Daze Fang City.

Chen Sansi returned to Small Stone Village.

"You this..."

Old Man Li was somewhat surprised, "Mr. Chen, weren’t you going to seek immortality?"

"Seeking is over, it didn’t suit me. I’m planning to leave,"

Chen Sansi politely said, "It’s getting late; I’d like to stay overnight at Uncle Li’s home and leave at daybreak tomorrow, if that’s alright?"

Being new to the Cultivation World.

He naturally did not dare to stay outdoors overnight; it was best to have a place to stay.

"Planning to leave?"

Old Man Li was seeing someone willingly leaving for the first time.

Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.

But no matter what, this was not someone he could afford to offend, so he quickly invited Chen inside the house.

Chen Sansi noticed that there was an additional basket of eggs in the house.

"I have a granddaughter, who’s already married off,"

Old Man Li poured him some hot water, "She’s a concubine for someone in the city, the girl takes care of her family, occasionally bringing things back, and because of her, the past few years haven’t been too bad."

"Old lady, quickly bring out some lard and fry some meaty dish with the eggs for this, for the Immortal... for the great hero."

The old couple busied themselves.

After dinner.

Chen Sansi swallowed a Nourishing Vitality Pill and found a deserted bamboo grove in the village, taking a bamboo pole as a long spear to practice his cultivation.
