“Please wait a moment, the items on the list will be ready for our esteemed guest within fifteen minutes.” The middle-aged, portly supervisor said before starting to operate the Communication Magic Artifact to prepare the items Xu Feng had purchased.
Xu Feng nodded and then as if he had thought of something, he said, “Does your Commerce also have information on Treasure Medicine Beasts?
That would be acceptable as well.”
Hearing the term Treasure Medicine Beast, the middle-aged, portly supervisor tried hard to recall, and then he suddenly enlightened, spoke up.
“Our Commerce received a Spiritual Beast Level Treasure Medicine Beast a hundred years ago, it was auctioned for nearly fifty thousand High Grade Spirit Stones.”
“We haven’t heard any news about Treasure Medicine Beasts recently, but if our esteemed guest requires, we can procure it on your behalf.” Said the middle-aged, portly supervisor with practiced ease.
“Help me procure a Treasure Medicine Beast cub with 2,000 High Grade Spirit Stones.” Xu Feng considered and then spoke.
He possessed the naturally vast Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World, the Spirit Medicine Field, and considered that raising a cub would be most cost-effective.
“Certainly, esteemed guest.
We can add each other’s contacts on the Communication Magic Artifacts, and I will notify you if there’s any news about the Treasure Medicine Beast.”
“If there’s anything else our esteemed guest needs, please notify me in advance so that I can prepare it,” continued the middle-aged, portly supervisor as he took out a Communication Magic Artifact and lightly tapped it against Xu Feng’s, leaving imprints on both.
Fifteen minutes later, a male servant dressed lad walked into the private room and respectfully placed a Storage Bag on the table.
“Here are the items you requested.
Please inspect them.”
Xu Feng nodded and picked up the Storage Bag from the table to examine it.
After a while, he nodded and accepted the Storage Bag.
“The quality is very impressive indeed.
Your Commerce is truly reputable, having been established for tens of thousands of years.”
The middle-aged, portly supervisor warmly escorted Xu Feng all the way to the entrance of the Commerce, bidding him farewell.
After leaving Heavenly Treasure Commerce, Xu Feng returned to the Commerce’s Cave Mansion.
“The Sect won’t be assigning any tasks in the next half a year; I will take this time to cultivate earnestly and strive to break through to the middle stage of the Golden Core.”
Two years ago, when Xu Feng encountered a bottleneck, his cultivation had come to a standstill until now.
“After breaking through to the middle stage of the Golden Core, I will then begin Alchemy.”
Xu Feng set this half-year plan for himself.
With a wave of his hand, the Small World Pearl appeared in his hand, and soon after, the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle vanished from sight.
“Little Jin, I’m going to cultivate.
Today you’re allowed to eat a piece of Spiritual Medicine that’s more than two thousand years old.”
Xu Feng’s words immediately delighted the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle.
Normally, Xu Feng only allowed his shelled son to eat Spiritual Medicines that had just passed a thousand years to maintain a balanced nutrition.
Once given permission, the Golden Armored Spirit Turtle immediately found a 2,500-year-old Crimson Ginseng, dug it up, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Not long after, Xu Feng felt a tremendous surge of feedback force transmitting from his soul.
Seizing the moment, he left the Mountain and Sea Divine Beast World and entered into a state of cultivation.
The Family Technique, the Three Pure Supreme Scripture, was running to its utmost limit, leveraging the feedback force in his soul to fiercely charge towards the bottleneck of the middle stage of the Golden Core.
A Breakthrough Pill, radiating Spirit Light, floated up from beside Xu Feng and slowly flew into his mouth.
The Breakthrough Pill dissolved upon entering his mouth, turning into a special energy that, along with the Spiritual Power inside his body, collectively rushed towards the bottleneck.
With each successive impact, the bottleneck finally began to show small cracks.
A second Breakthrough Pill floated up and flew towards Xu Feng’s mouth.
Xu Feng seemed to hear the breaking sound within his body like shattering glass.
Following that, as if rivers flowed into the sea, an immense wave of Spiritual Power surged toward Xu Feng’s Golden Core.
A faint pattern appeared on top of the Golden Core.
A month later, Xu Feng slowly opened his eyes, feeling the vibrant Spiritual Power within his body.
With a gentle lift of the hand, a group of spiritual power swiftly congregated into a ball in the palm.
“Golden Core can now hold 30% more spiritual power, the speed of maneuvering spiritual power increased by 20%, and spiritual power increased by….”
Feeling the enhancement of his own strength, a trace of a smile appeared on Xu Feng’s face.
Entering the Mountain and Sea World with his Divine Thought, he found the son of the turtle breathing beside the Xuan Turtle.
The Xuan Turtle was still squinting and basking in the sun.
Watching this harmonious scene, Xu Feng didn’t disturb them and sent his Divine Thought flying towards Qingqiu Mountain.
“Divine Thought has greatly strengthened; has your cultivation experienced any major advancements?” The Nine-tailed Lady inquired while smelling a little apricot-yellow flower.
“Barely made some progress, nothing compared to Miss Nine-tailed’s cultivation at the Heavenly Immortal Realm,” Xu Feng modestly replied.
“My little cultivation is nothing; in this Great Wilderness World, my power is like a tiny shrimp in the river, easily eaten by bigger fish at any time,” spoke the Nine-tailed Lady with a wistful tone.
“Hearing Miss Nine-tailed’s tone, could it be that you cannot leave Qingqiu Mountain?” Xu Feng’s voice immediately went up a notch.
“Even if I can’t leave Qingqiu Mountain, I would not go to your world, young master, do not overthink it,” the Nine-tailed Lady suddenly scoffed.
After the conversation, Xu Feng took a stroll around the area spanning a hundred thousand miles.
He looked at the Sky-Piercing Giant River, glanced at the Moving Mountain Giant Turtle, and finally, his Divine Thought settled upon the White Ape stone village.
Thanks to Xu Feng’s guidance, the White Ape defeated the Giant Wolves near its territory and gained numerous resources; thus, their lives were thriving.
In the village, you could see many newborn little White Apes chasing and playing happily.
The Old White Ape, sensing Xu Feng’s Divine Thought, came out of the stone hut and respectfully saluted the sky.
The little White Apes playing in the village also copied the Old White Ape and saluted the sky.
Looking at this village with its primitive charm, Xu Feng casually imparted some knowledge on building structures and agriculture, as well as some basic techniques for refining weapons from Spiritual Ore.
Hearing the knowledge imparted by Xu Feng, the Old White Ape led all the little White Apes to kneel on the ground with an expression of divine reverence.
It was as if they were listening to the decree of the god they worshipped.
Xu Feng, bestowing knowledge, felt a mystic sensation; the sense of repulsion between him and this group of White Apes was slowly diminishing.
After imparting knowledge and preparing to leave, Xu Feng was stopped by the Old White Ape.
Finally, a three-zhang-sized Dragon Scale was moved out from an underground hole.
The dark blue Dragon Scale radiated Immortal Light, emitting a special Dao Rhythm.
“How did you get this thing!”
Xu Feng was astounded; just feeling the aura exuded from the Dragon Scale, he knew that its former owner had to be at least starting from the Golden Immortal level.
Listening to the explanation from the Old White Ape, Xu Feng learned the origin of this piece of Dragon Scale.
A True Dragon and Phoenix were fighting in the sky, a piece of dragon hide with scales was torn off.
They competed with the Giant Wolves, and in the end, only this Dragon Scale was obtained.
“Do as I say, forge weapons, and go snatch the remaining dragon hide and scales from that pack of Giant Wolves.” Xu Feng, overjoyed, immediately began planning to seize the dragon hide and scales from the Giant Wolves.
The Old White Ape nodded in understanding.
Xu Feng asked the son of the turtle to hurry over and drag the Dragon Scale to his den.
“Do you like eating this Dragon Scale?” Xu Feng remembered how the turtle son licked the golden Spiritual Ore.
The Golden Armored Spirit Turtle gazed at the three-zhang large Dragon Scale and shook his head, showing some fear of the aura it carried.
For some reason, Xu Feng suddenly thought of the Stone Spirit in the distant ore vein.
