What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

the next day.

The morning light streamed through the glass, casting a long, slanted patch of light on the floor.

The light spot extended to Rong Jing's face, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed. Her eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes.

The terrible wound from yesterday has completely healed, without even leaving a scar.

If it weren't for the immense Yuan power within her body that had just broken through to the seventh level of the Rock Realm, she would have thought it was all just a dream.

"A breakthrough?"

In the corridor, Liu Bo was leaning against the wall.

He was toying with a newly replaced standard-issue longsword in his hand, the blade still bearing indelible dark red blood grooves.

Rong Jing nodded and asked, "Where's Yu Rou? Hasn't she come out yet?"

Liu Bo pursed his lips and sheathed his long sword.

"I don't know, what time is it? The other teams set off long ago!"

"Let's go and call her."

Liu Bo strode over to Luo Yurou's door.

He raised his hand to knock on the door.

The instant Liu Bo's fingers touched the door panel, a powerful surge of Yuan energy suddenly emanated from the crack in the door, directly repelling Liu Bo's outstretched hand.

Liu Bo was stunned.

He stared wide-eyed at the thin wooden door.

This concentration of elemental energy—

"The Thousand-Pound Realm?!"

Ignoring the throbbing pain in his hands, Liu Bo exclaimed in surprise.

Are you trying to cheat?

Didn't this girl just break through to the eighth level of the Rock Realm a few days ago?

Even if this room offers ten times the cultivation speed, and has a spa to convert malevolent energy into cultivation, it's still not enough.

But it's impossible for someone to leapfrog three minor realms in just a few days and directly enter the Thousand Jun realm, right?

They were classmates, and he knew Luo Yurou very well.

Their aptitude was similar to mine, and because of their modest family background, their cultivation level was even lower than mine when they entered school!

"Click." The door was pulled open from the inside.

Luo Yurou came out wearing a clean set of training clothes.

"You...you're cheating?"

Liu Bo hesitated for a long time before finally managing to utter this sentence.

Seeing the two people's ghost-like expressions, Luo Yurou scratched her hair somewhat embarrassedly.

"It's probably because of the Marrow Cleansing Liquid."

"Marrow Cleansing Elixir?" Rong Jing was taken aback, feeling like she had heard the name somewhere before.

"Marrow Cleansing Elixir?!"

While Rong Jing was still in a daze, Liu Bo, who was standing next to her, jumped three feet high like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"An S-grade treasure, the Marrow Cleansing Elixir that can greatly enhance a martial artist's aptitude?"

Liu Bo stared at Luo Yurou as if he had seen a ghost.

No, sis?

We agreed to cultivate immortality together as mortals, so what's the meaning of you turning around and pulling out a mysterious little green bottle?

Can we have some fun together now?

"I got it from the shop owner's multiverse jar a week ago, and it only cost me 10,000 credits."

Luo Yurou said somewhat shyly.

Liu Bo swayed.

He grabbed the wall for support, feeling a sudden dizziness.

10,000 credits, Marrow Cleansing Elixir.

My goodness!

"Oh right, today seems to be the day the Celestial Jars refresh."

"today?"

"Um."

"Walk!"

Luo Yurou was then pulled along by Liu Bo and Rong Jing, one on each side, like flying a kite, and ran towards the hall.

As they turned the corner, the three saw a dark figure leaping and bounding wildly in front of the All-Heavens Jar counter, occasionally letting out a strange cry.

There were shards of jars scattered all over the ground.

"The alien race has invaded?"

Liu Bo's expression immediately changed, and he drew his standard longsword. He instantly exuded murderous intent, looking as if he was about to fight to the death.

It's worth it!

Such a sacred place as a resort must not be allowed to be touched by foreigners!

Even if the shopkeeper dies in battle, Liu Bo, though only a minor Rock Realm cultivator, will never back down even a single step!

"That... seems to be Teacher Sun Xu."

Rong Jing tugged at Liu Bo, who was standing to the side preparing to die a martyr, and whispered something.

"Teacher Sun??"

Liu Bo looked closely.

Absolutely!

Sun Xu held a pill the size of a walnut in his hands, carefully cradling it in his palms.

His eyes were fixed on the pill, almost bulging out of their sockets. He hissed as he inhaled.

He would sometimes hold the pills above his head and examine them carefully under the bright lights of the hall.

Sometimes he would bring the pill to his nose, greedily inhaling its fragrance.

"Hehe...hehehe..."

Sun Xu let out a chilling, silly laugh.

He was trembling uncontrollably, like a weasel that had stolen a hen, extremely excited.

"Is Teacher Sun...possessed by an evil spirit?"

Liu Bo stopped and swallowed.

At Cangyun Martial Arts University, Sun Xu is a well-known cold-faced teacher.

He was responsible for leading the students to venture into the outer reaches of the battlefield of the heavens, and he was extremely strict. Many times, the students would rather face those hideous alien races than see Sun Xu with his dark face.

But right now, has Teacher Sun lost her mind?

"I opened a few jars, got a Sky-Piercing Pill, and that was it."

Xu Tianlin's lazy voice came from behind the counter.

"Soaring Sky Pill?"

Luo Yurou and Liu Bo were both taken aback, clearly having never heard of this name before.

But Rong Jing, standing to the side, seemed to have been struck by lightning, freezing on the spot. Her eyes widened instantly, and her breathing became extremely rapid.

"Chong, Chongxiao Dan?!"

Rong Jing's voice was trembling.

"What's wrong? Is it that amazing?" Liu Bo was a little confused by Rong Jing's reaction.

"nonsense!"

Rong Jing turned her head and gave Liu Bo a disdainful look.

"That's a top-tier elixir that can allow a Flying Heaven Realm martial artist to smoothly advance directly to the Nine Heavens Realm!"

"If I remember correctly, the last time the Soaring Cloud Pill appeared was decades ago!"

Rong Jing's voice rose eight octaves, and she gestured excitedly. "At an auction in the capital, it fetched an astronomical price of over ten million credits!"

"50,000 credits, exchanged for tens of millions?"

Liu Bo gasped.

He immediately understood Mr. Sun Xu's strange behavior!

Anyone would go crazy in this situation!

If he hadn't felt much about the Marrow Cleansing Elixir that Luo Yurou had mentioned before, now that the Sky-Piercing Pill was right in front of him!

"Let's open one too!" Liu Bo's heart was burning with excitement.

"Do you have money?"

Rong Jing suddenly poured cold water on the situation.

Liu Bo's expression instantly darkened.

These past few days, they've been risking their lives to hunt down the alien race.

All the credits I earned were spent on the teleportation scroll, the evil energy purification SPA, and the life-giving nectar hot spring.

Now each of them has so much money in their pockets that a rat could starve to death.

"How about we chip in?"

The saying goes, "Take a gamble, and you might turn a bicycle into a motorcycle."

Take a gamble, and your motorcycle could become a Land Rover.

This opportunity was right in front of him—

give up?

Liu Bo was somewhat unwilling.

The three of them huddled together, heads close together, and whispered for a while.

It took a lot of effort to finally accumulate 10,000 credits.

"This is all we have left."

Liu Bo looked at the credits he had collected in his hand, his voice a little strained.

"The remaining money is only enough to buy one teleportation scroll. What if I don't get anything good from it..."

"Then we'll have to go eat dirt on the outskirts."

Rong Jing continued.

The money has been raised, but now the question is, who will open the can?
