My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 179 Poverty
"Judging from my consumption of pills, if I wanted to go down the pay-to-win pill-consuming route, the spirit stones required to go from the seventh to the peak of the ninth level would probably be worth no less than several Nascent Soul Pills!"

"In this world, probably less than one in a hundred people are truly capable of taking this path!"

Faced with these expensive pills,
Shen Changchuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

But think about it carefully,

This seems quite normal.

It's important to know that he has progressed from the peak of the third level of Qi Refining to the current mid-stage of the eighth level.

It only took a year.

some of,
The elixirs used in cultivation played a significant role in its success.

Without the extraordinary opportunities like the Azure Essence Purifying Pill, others might not have been able to progress as rapidly as Shen Changchuan.
However, with enough cultivation pills, it's no problem to cultivate from the peak of the third level to the seventh level within a year!

In comparison,

Without taking elixirs to cultivate, even ordinary people might not be able to achieve this level of progress even after nearly ten years of hard work.

This demonstrates the value of elixirs!
The price of elixirs is so high,
Not without reason.

"Then give me eight Purple Gold Pills."

After weighing the matter in his mind and suppressing his heartache, Shen Changchuan spoke.

In the end, he chose the most expensive and most effective elixir.

no way,
Because frequent use of elixirs can lead to the accumulation of erysipelas, a more potent elixir would mean a lower frequency of use and thus less accumulation of erysipelas.
Therefore, he would not hesitate to spend all the spirit stones in his pocket at this moment.

Problems that can be solved with spirit stones are not problems at all.

Anyway, as long as you are strong,

The source of the spirit stones is not a major problem.

He left the Myriad Spirits Pavilion with eight Purple Gold Pills.

All the spirit stones that Shen Changchuan had accumulated over this period of time were also completely dissipated.

It was spotless.

Even if he consumed eight Purple Gold Pills at top speed, it might not be enough to raise his cultivation to the peak of the eighth level.

Simultaneously,

The breakthrough from the peak of the eighth level to the ninth level would likely be even more costly if one tried to accelerate the process with elixirs!
难，
too difficult!
Where can I obtain a large quantity of spirit stones?

He originally thought that he was already very wealthy compared to others.

After falling into the trap of elixirs, I realized how poor I actually was.
He was troubled by the lack of spirit stones.
Shen Changchuan rested for a day at an inn in Qingcheng.

the next day,
The caravan's chief steward sent a message.
The caravan is ready and can depart.

Shen Changchun stopped thinking too much, put the thoughts in his mind aside, and set off directly to the caravan's meeting point.

It can be seen that
This caravan was more than twice as large as the last one.

This is because I demonstrated sufficient escort capabilities last time.
So, no longer worried about losses, they increased the amount of transportation as much as possible?

Or is it because business in Dawancun is too good?

We have to increase the quantity of goods?

A thought flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.

But I didn't pay much attention to it.

They walked directly into the luxurious carriage arranged by the caravan manager. The head manager of the joint caravan also showed a pleased expression.

With a big wave,
The caravan rumbled out of Qingcheng and headed towards Dawancun.

Tiannan City
Deep within the magnificent Shen family compound,
Clang!

As the sound of a teacup shattering on the floor echoed, a sharp, sarcastic voice resounded throughout the hall:
"You bunch of good-for-nothings! It's been a whole year and you still haven't caught that little beast born of that lowly maid!"

"Do you think you can ride roughshod over me just because I've lost my family's support?!"

"Let me tell you, no matter how much I lose power, I can still crush your so-called Shen family with a single finger!"

"Are you bunch of good-for-nothings protecting that little beast?! Do you all want to die?!"

Seated at the head of the table, a woman dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, with her hair piled high and her eyebrows like willow branches, was throwing a tantrum at the people kneeling before her.
The anger in my heart
As a result, their voices became extremely shrill, like those of a shrew on the street.

"Please calm down, Madam."

"It's not that we're not doing anything, it's just that that brat is too cunning and his tracks are extremely difficult to find."

"And that kid is also very strange. Once, we had already set a trap to surround him, but who knew that the brat used some means to suddenly surge from the mere fourth level of Qi Induction to the half-step Out-of-Body realm. As a result, we lost several of our best fighters, and we almost lost ourselves there."

"It's not that we didn't try hard enough, it's just that that brat is too strange!"

The people kneeling on the ground exchanged glances, and the leader helplessly began to explain.

"Don't waste your breath on me!"

"A group of Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivators can't even capture a Qi Refining Fourth Level cultivator? It's an absolute joke!"

"I don't care what methods you use, if you don't see that little beast's head within a month, you can all just wait to die!"

"Get out of here!"

"disappear as far as you can!"

The woman screamed and threw the tea set on the table to the ground.

To vent one's overwhelming anger.

Several figures retreated somewhat disheveled.

"How could the First Madam be like this?"

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do. He was born into a noble family, so he probably lacked manners and moral character from a young age."

"Noble my foot! If she were truly capable, why would she have married down from Zhongzhou to our clan leader?"

"Hey, I heard she was originally the legitimate daughter of a powerful cultivation family in Zhongzhou. Her mother was firmly in the position of empress, but unfortunately, her mother was narrow-minded and killed a concubine. But who knew that the concubine's own son would return after years of wandering and achieving great success in cultivation? Her mother was directly executed by that family, and she was banished far away from Zhongzhou, ending up in a remote place like our Tiannan Region."

"No wonder he was so harsh on Shen Chong, that illegitimate son—no, on all illegitimate sons. The clan leader has it too hard."

"Forget it, this is the clan leader's family matter, what does it have to do with us? Let's think about how to find Shen Chong as soon as possible. You've all seen what the First Madam is like, she's probably almost at her limit. If we don't catch him soon, there might be some unbearable things to come."

"If any of you have any clues, please share them so we can all discuss them together."

“I’ve received word that the kid’s figure was spotted in the desolate woodlands.”

"The borderlands and woodlands? Is that the desolate land south of Qingcheng?"

"That's right. Not long ago, there were rumors that a local powerful family, the Wu family, had taken control of a certain spiritual land produced by Biyuan Water Grass, and things were in complete chaos. It seems that kid Shen Chong has also gotten involved."

"In that case, let's search over there."
