Battle Through the Heavens: The Strongest in the Entire Map, I Will Always Be Above You

"Then ask him if he's willing to join the Mittel Auction House. If he is, give him a low-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique, a fourth-grade pill, and 100,000 gold coins!"

The total price of these items is close to 400,000 gold coins, and even a mercenary with money might not be able to obtain a low-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique and a fourth-grade pill.

"I understand!"

"I'll arrange it right away!"

Gu Ni nodded.

"By the way, also ask Xiao Zhan if he has collected all the medicinal herbs that Xiao Yan asked him to collect?"

Chen Yang then gave further instructions.

"Yes, teacher!"

……

Half an hour later, at the Xiao family's residence.

Upon learning of Gu Ni's visit, Xiao Zhan hurriedly came to greet him. When he saw the third-grade alchemist badge on Gu Ni's chest, he immediately smiled and exclaimed, "Congratulations, Master Gu Ni, on your advancement to a third-grade alchemist!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Ni laughed heartily: "Haha, thanks to my teacher and the Xiao family, if Mr. Xiao Yong hadn't brought my teacher to Wutan City, I probably would never have had any hope of advancing to the third rank in my life!"

Speaking of this, Gu Ni almost wanted to kowtow to Xiao Yong.

"We're all thanks to Yongdi!"

Xiao Zhan was also filled with emotion.

"My teacher asked me to inquire with Clan Chief Xiao about the medicinal herbs that Young Master Xiao Yan asked you to collect. How is the collection going?"

"Gu Ni asked."

"I'm ashamed to say that I've been busy for more than twenty days with the matter that Yan'er asked me to do, but I'm still missing one ingredient!"

"I've already sent the Xiao family's team to search the Monster Mountain Range. I think we should have news in a few days!"

Xiao Zhan said with a smile.

"Ok!"

Gu Ni nodded, and then began to get down to business.

"This morning, the Mittel Auction House received a high-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique called 'Wind Sweep Technique,' a wind-attribute technique!"

"After the teacher found out, he instructed me to detain it and personally deliver it to the Xiao family!"

Gu Ni took out a scroll from his storage ring and placed it on the table in front of Xiao Zhan.

"A high-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique???"

Xiao Zhan stood up excitedly.

"That's right, and it's even a wind-attribute cultivation technique that Clan Chief Xiao Zhan can practice!"

"I believe that if Clan Chief Xiao Zhan were to adopt this advanced Xuan-rank cultivation technique, his combat power would be greatly enhanced!"

Gu Ni said with a smile.

"Thank you so much, Master Chen Yang!"

"I...I didn't know..."

"oops!!!"

Xiao Zhan was so excited that he was incoherent.

"Clan Chief Xiao, please don't be in such a hurry to thank me. My teacher is asking for 40 gold coins for this cultivation technique!"

Gu Ni continued.

"No problem, not to mention 400,000, even 500,000 gold coins is normal!"

"I am deeply grateful that Master Chen Yang remembers me!"

Xiao Zhan reached into his storage ring to take out money, but then he realized that the family's cash flow was not that much anymore.

"Uncle Xiao Zhan!"

"I have money here, use it first!"

Just then, a figure in a purple dress appeared at the door and called out to Xiao Zhan inside.

"Xun'er???"

Xiao Zhan hurriedly stood up and looked at Xun'er, whose attitude was even more special than that of Gu Ni.

"Uncle Xiao Zhan needs the money urgently, so please take it first. Brother Xiao Yan can pay me back later!"

Xun'er smiled, walked gracefully into the hall, and then took out a five-patterned purple-gold card from her storage ring and placed it on the table.

"This……"

"Then thank you very much, Xun'er. Once the family's harvest report for this year is released, your uncle will repay you immediately!"

Xiao Zhan didn't want his son to pay off his debts.

"Xun'er said Brother Xiao Yan should pay it back, so Brother Xiao Yan should pay it back!"

Xun'er looked very serious.

"Oh well!"

Xiao Zhan smiled wryly; he dared not disobey this girl's words in the slightest!

"Then I'm off!"

After Xun'er finished speaking, she turned and left without even looking at Gu Ni.

Gu Ni was very clever and didn't ask about Xun'er's relationship with Xiao Zhan. Instead, he waited until Xiao Zhan gave him 400,000 gold coins before quietly leaving!

……

Time flies, and another three days have passed.

That evening, Chen Yang was riding a bicycle with Ya Fei in their room when he suddenly heard a system notification:

【Ding! 】

[The highest-level cultivation technique detected in Wutan City is the Xuan-rank advanced technique "Wind Sweep Technique". The host has obtained the Di-rank low-level cultivation technique "Blazing Sun True Technique".]

Chapter 18 Chen Yang advances to Dou Ling! Xiao Yan breaks through to Dou Zhe!

"Low-level Earth Rank cultivation technique!"

"It seems Xiao Zhan has successfully switched to cultivation!"

Chen Yang silently recited the instructions, letting the system automatically convert his battle qi, while Ya Fei acted on her own.

The fully automatic operation made Chen Yang extremely happy.

"Little brother...you...is something making you happy?"

Ya Fei, who had her eyes closed, sensed a change. She opened her eyes and saw Chen Yang smiling. Curious, she asked.

"With a woman as beautiful as Sister Ya Fei, shouldn't I be happy?" Chen Yang crossed his hands under his head so he could see Ya Fei's face better.

"You little rascal, you're so good at making your sister happy!" Ya Fei rode her bike even harder!

……

After obtaining the low-level Earth-rank cultivation technique, the original high-level Profound-rank cultivation technique, "Crimson Flame Technique," did not disappear immediately; Chen Yang still clearly remembered the contents of this technique.

"Hmm... a little improvement is the right thing to do!"

"In this way, the cultivation technique we acquire can serve as a valuable asset for our family!"

The most traditional Chinese belief is that one should carry on the family line.

Moreover, he is a member of the Chen family, and he carries the bloodline of the Li family on his mother's side.

If you marry multiple wives and have multiple sons and daughters, you need to have a suitable cultivation method to pass it down, right?

The cultivation techniques rewarded by the system are the best among those of the same level. Even the "Burning Technique" that has evolved to the relevant level cannot match the cultivation techniques rewarded by the system in terms of pure combat endurance.

The previous "Crimson Flame Technique" and the current "Blazing Sun True Technique" will become the foundation of the Chen clan in the future!

"It's because after this cultivation technique was upgraded to the Earth Rank, the original third-rank medicine cauldron couldn't withstand the scorching flames!"

Chen Yang looked at the medicine cauldron that already had some cracks, and went out to find Gu Ni!

"Teacher, you've arrived?"

Gu Ni looked at Chen Yang and bowed respectfully.

"Are you still using the same medicine cauldron as before?"

Chen Yang asked.

"Yes, teacher, this medicine cauldron was left behind by my deceased mentor."

Gu Ni spoke cautiously, afraid that Chen Yang would think he wasn't loyal enough to Chen Yang.

"It's good to be filial, but this second-tier medicine cauldron is still a bit lacking in refining third-grade pills!"

"You should get a better one, preferably one of rank four or higher!"

Chen Yang said to Gu Ni.

"Understood, teacher. I will have my family send over a fourth-tier medicine cauldron immediately!"

There are only two alchemists of the fifth rank or above in the entire Gama Empire. There is no market for fifth-rank medicine cauldrons in the Gama Empire, and even if there were, they would be very expensive. With Gu Ni's wealth after just being promoted to the third rank alchemist, he is still a bit strapped for cash.

"Ok!"

Chen Yang nodded, then turned and left.

……

A few days later, Chen Yang was flipping through a book of low-level Xuan-rank movement techniques and combat skills.

This is the inventory of the Mittel Auction House, which was originally intended to be auctioned off for events such as the 20th anniversary of the auction house's founding, but now it has ended up with Chen Yang.

"Brother Yang!"

Just then, a figure walked in from the front yard, saw the gate open and Chen Yang sitting in the central hall, and waved to greet him.
