Goddess Painting

The news that Qin Feng had recruited twenty disciples with mid-grade spiritual roots by showering spirit stones spread like wildfire throughout the entire Qingyun Sect.

Inside the Elders' Hall.

Click!

The teacup in Wang Tianyi's hand instantly turned into powder, and he didn't even notice the scalding tea splashing all over his hand.

"What?! Fifty high-grade spirit stones?!"

His old face twisted in agony: "Where did that good-for-nothing get so much money?! Did that old bastard Qin Xiaotian leave him some secret stash?!"

Wang Tianyi was so angry that his eyes turned red.

He never expected that Qin Feng, whom he regarded as a piece of trash, would actually pull such a "spirit stone offensive" on him!

On the other side, the Lin family.

Lin Zhengnan slammed his hand down on the table in front of him, shattering it. His face was so dark it seemed to drip water.

"You little bastard! You've got some lucky shit!"

"But... what's the use of just having money?"

A cold glint flashed in his eyes. He beckoned the butler and said in a sinister tone:

"Pass down my order!"

"Notify all medicine shops, pharmacies, and trading companies that are on friendly terms with the Lin family!"

"From this day forward, no elixirs, spiritual herbs, talismans, or even a single thread are permitted to be sold to anyone from Tian Shu Peak!"

"Anyone who dares to disobey is an enemy of the Lin family!"

"I'll make sure he has money but can't spend it! I'll let his disciples starve to death while guarding spirit stones!"

At the same time, Wang Tianyi also sent a message, and the two hit it off immediately.

Wang Tianyi added even more insidiously:

"Notify the finance department! Keep a close eye on the flow of spirit stones at Tian Shu Peak! If they discover that this kid's money came from an unknown source, seize it immediately!"

……

After the recruitment was completed, Qin Feng looked at the twenty energetic new disciples in front of him and felt reassured.

They were immediately assigned to Tian Shu Peak to reclaim wasteland.

Just then, the communication jade pendant in my arms vibrated.

Bai Ziyu's voice came through, carrying a hint of flattery and respect:

"Master! I have completed the task you entrusted to me!"

So fast?

Qin Feng was overjoyed and said to Lu Qianlang and the others:

"You guys go back first, I have some personal matters to attend to."

"Yes, Peak Master!"

The disciples now obey Qin Feng's every word, after all, he is their sugar daddy.

In a secluded grove of trees.

Qin Feng has once again assumed the identity of "Feng Qin".

Bai Ziyu had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Qin Feng arrive, he immediately and respectfully handed him a heavy storage bag:

"Master, everything is here."

"Two hundred bottles of first-tier cultivation pills! Fifty bottles of second-tier cultivation pills!"

"There are also various healing and detoxifying pills; please take a look, Master!"

Qin Feng scanned the area with his divine sense and exclaimed inwardly, "Wow!"

This guy is really reliable!

The quantity and quality are more than double what I expected!

"very good."

Qin Feng nodded approvingly: "Nothing was overlooked, you considered everything very thoroughly. You are very clever and quick-witted."

Upon receiving the praise, Bai Ziyu blushed with excitement, rubbed his hands together, and boldly said:

"Master, you flatter me! This is merely my duty!"

"However... this disciple has another request..."

"If I encounter any truly intractable problems in the future, may I present this talisman to request my master's assistance?"

"Of course! The consultation fee will definitely satisfy Master!"

Qin Feng chuckled inwardly.

What's so difficult about that?

Anyway, with the magic pen in hand, at worst we can go into the painting and ask, and if all else fails, we can just say it's a terminal illness.

It allows one to maintain a superior image while also earning extra income—why not?

"Can."

Qin Feng nodded with feigned profundity: "But remember, do not disturb us unless it is a life-or-death matter."

"Thank you, Master!!"

"Oh, by the way, I only treat women's illnesses, so you must remember that."

After considering the unbearable scene in the painting, Qin Feng finally added this condition.

Although Bai Ziyu was puzzled, he nodded to indicate that he understood.

……

Return to Tian Shu Peak.

Qin Feng sorted the pills and put them into his storage ring, feeling extremely at ease.

With this batch of pills, plus dual-elemental sacred spiritual roots and the ability to cultivate two techniques simultaneously...

His cultivation speed skyrocketed!

Qin Feng immediately went into seclusion and swallowed a Golden Marrow Pill.

boom!

The colorless gas cloud spun wildly!

Three distinct energies converge, merge, and explode within the body!

The speed of his cultivation is simply indescribable!

I don't know how much time passed.

hum!

His body jolted violently!

The second level of the new realm!!

Qin Feng opened his eyes, feeling the surging power within his body, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"At this rate, we'll reach the third floor of the new student dormitory in another day or two!"

"The Divine Power Realm is just around the corner!"

However, when he looked inward at his dantian, his brows furrowed.

Although the rate at which the quality of the spiritual root declined was slowed down by the addition of Li Wanqing's fire spiritual root, it was only slowed down.

The luster of the spiritual root is now between that of a holy grade and a top grade.

The colorless cloud of gas also shrank by one size.

"We must plan ahead! Find a new woman in the painting!"

Just then, the communication jade tablet rang again.

It's Li Qingtian.

There was a hint of anxiety and embarrassment in his voice:

"Master Feng... I apologize for disturbing you."

"My daughter, Wanqing... is feeling unwell again. Although it's nothing serious, she has no appetite and keeps talking about things like a sea of ​​fire and a fairy brother..."

"Our cultivation has stagnated, which is truly worrying. We wonder if the master could..."

Qin Feng was taken aback.

The fire poison has been cleared and the spiritual root is stable, so how could it relapse?

Is it...

The image of Li Wanqing's shy face flashed through his mind, and he had a vague guess in his heart.

This isn't an illness at all!

This is clearly... lovesickness, isn't it?

but……

A sudden inspiration struck Qin Feng.

Exactly!

The Li family controls 60% of the medicinal herb supply for the Qingyun Sect!

My new disciples will eventually face the Lin family's blockade, and then I'll have to rely on the Li family to break the deadlock!

"Can."

Qin Feng replied with a single word.

……

I visited the Li residence again.

Li Qingtian greeted him with a worried expression, handing him a storage bag: "Master, this is for the follow-up consultation fee, a small token of my appreciation!"

With a sweep of his hand, Qin Feng had another thousand mid-grade spirit stones!

The Li family is really rich!

We arrived at the embroidered tower.

Upon seeing Qin Feng, Li Wanqing's previously dim eyes instantly lit up, as if two small lanterns had been lit.

She dismissed everyone around her, her cheeks flushed, head bowed, clutching the hem of her dress, her voice barely audible:

"Master...actually...I'm not sick."

"I just... miss the fairy brother in my dreams."

"Master, if I fall ill again... will I be able to see him again?"

Qin Feng: "..."

He almost lost his composure.

This girl is really in the late stages of being love-struck!

"Cough cough."

Qin Feng, with a stern face, gave her a stern lecture on "illusion and falsehood," and then casually gave her a so-called "calming pill."

As Qin Feng left the Li residence, he saw a bustling scene at the gate, with carts of medicinal herbs being transported out.

The managers of the various alchemy and pharmacy establishments were all bowing and scraping as they negotiated with the Li family's steward.

Qin Feng's eyes lit up.

"yes!"

"The Li family controls the source of the medicinal herbs! If the Lin family dares to continue blocking me, I'll have the Li family cut off their supply! This drastic measure will definitely give Lin Zhengnan a hard time!"

……

Return to Tian Shu Peak.

Qin Feng was in a great mood and pulled Lin Wan'er into the house.

"Wan'er..."

After a night of passion.

The magic pen is activated!

The world in the painting is still that crimson sea of ​​fire.

His purpose in entering the painting this time was not only to relieve the girl's lovesickness, but also to obtain the martial arts techniques from Li Wanqing.

It was only when he went to the Li family that he realized he hadn't finished fleecing Li Wanqing yet!

As the eldest daughter of the Li family, her cultivation techniques must be quite good, right?

In the painting, Li Wanqing is sitting on a fire lotus, lost in thought. Upon seeing Qin Feng, she immediately rushes over like a swallow returning to its nest.

"Master!! You've finally arrived!!"

This time, she was more proactive and more enthusiastic.

While enjoying this unique dual cultivation, Qin Feng asked:

"What kind of cultivation technique do you practice?"

Li Wanqing's eyes were alluring, revealing her charm without reservation:

"This servant possesses the 'Crimson Sun Burning Heaven Technique,' a high-grade Xuan-level fire-based cultivation method..."

Tell me the formula!

"Yes……"

Another high-grade Xuan-level cultivation technique has been obtained!

After it ended, Qin Feng did not rush to leave, but instead began cultivating in the world within the painting.

Li Wanqing provided careful guidance from the side.

This is a real personal trainer!

Going back to reality.

Qin Feng immediately went into seclusion to try cultivating the three skills simultaneously!

"Green Wood Technique", "Mysterious Ice Heart-Cleansing Technique", "Red Sun Burning Heaven Technique"!

Wood generates fire, water overcomes fire...

Three completely different forces collided within the dantian, but under the harmonization of the colorless energy, they miraculously achieved a delicate balance!

boom!

Cultivation speed increased dramatically once again!

It's more than ten times faster than before!

In just half a day.

Boom!

New Realm, Level Three!!

……

Just as Qin Feng was immersed in the pleasure of cultivation.

At the foot of Tian Shu Peak.

Lu Qianlang, holding the ten mid-grade spirit stones he had just received in advance, excitedly ran to the sect's alchemy pavilion.

however.

When he slapped the spirit stone onto the counter.

The steward glanced at his Tian Shu Peak attire, then pushed the spirit stones back with a forced smile:

"Oh, the new darling of Tian Shu Peak."

"Excuse me."

"All pills in this pavilion will not be sold to disciples of Tian Shu Peak."

Lu Qianlang was dumbfounded: "Why? I have spirit stones! These are mid-grade spirit stones!"

The deacon sneered, his eyes filled with disdain:

"So what if you have spirit stones?"

"Why don't you try another place?"

Lu Qianlang refused to believe it and visited every pill shop and medicine store in the sect.

The result was exactly the same!

"Not for sale!"

"People from Tian Shu Peak, get out!"

Some shops even had signs hanging at their entrances that read: "Disciples of Tian Shu Peak and dogs are not allowed inside!"

anger!

humiliation!

Lu Qianlang and the other disciples who had suffered the same fate gathered together, each one trembling with anger.

"This is so unfair!!"

"This is targeting! Blatant targeting!"

"Having spirit stones but not being able to spend them is even worse than not having any at all!"

"Without elixirs, how are we supposed to cultivate on Tian Shu Peak? Isn't this like throwing us into a fire pit?"

Some people began to waver:

"I wonder if Peak Master Qin already knew all along? Did he deliberately trick us into coming in?"

Lu Qianlang took a deep breath and said loudly:

"Everyone, calm down!"

"This was clearly the Lin family's doing; no wonder, Peak Master!"

"Let's go back first! Let's ask the peak master what he has to say! If he can't solve it either... then we can retreat!"

On Tian Shu Peak.

Looking at the group of dejected disciples before him, Qin Feng listened to Lu Qianlang's report and sneered inwardly.

The Lin family, Wang Tianyi.

You guys are really persistent!

it is good!

very good!

Since you've gone too far, don't blame me for flipping the table!

Qin Feng looked at everyone, his voice steady and powerful:

"Everyone! Please calm down!"

"This matter was due to my lack of consideration, and it has implicated you all."

"But now that you've entered Tian Shu Peak, I, Qin Feng, will never let you suffer any injustice!"

"I will give you an explanation within three days!"

"During this period..."

With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen bottles of pills landed precisely in the hands of each disciple:

"Just tell me what kind of pills you need! I'll get them for you!"

The disciples were overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Peak Master!!"

After calming everyone down, Qin Feng returned to the house, his eyes cold.

Although the pills given by Bai Ziyu can sustain us for the time being, we can't just sit around and wait for our resources to run out.

We must establish our own channels!

Qin Feng took out his communication jade token and contacted Li Qingtian:

"Master Li, I have a request."

"How about... we meet in person and discuss this in detail?"
