The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly heard Sun Haoqiang's trembling voice.

"who are you?"

Who am I? I am your father.

Bai Jinxuan wanted to curse. This mad dog chased her for eighteen blocks to bite her. Grenades didn't work, and he dodged her telekinetic sword. Even spider sense wasn't as exaggerated as his.

Luckily, she timed her escape perfectly and teleported away, otherwise she would have really been killed there.

But looking at his panicked appearance, he really does resemble a dog that has fallen into the water. Well, he didn't catch anyone, and he'll get scolded by his owner when he gets back. As a dog, that's quite derelict in his duty.

With this thought in mind, Bai Jinxuan felt much better and, in high spirits, decided to make a few sarcastic remarks to him.

In reality, she really wanted to stab this jerk to death instead of mocking him. At the very least, she wanted to throw some slime at him to humiliate him, since he couldn't bite her anyway.

Unfortunately, the physical self that carried the treasure chest is already on the ground; now, the phantom self can only make expressions.

This is like opening a door. Bai Jinxuan has already opened the door and walked to the other side, but because the door has not yet closed, a faint shadow remains in the same place.

From the other person's perspective, it might be quite frightening.

Bai Jinxuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way to humiliate the other party.

What is the most guilt-inducing thing for a loyal dog? It is, of course, failing to accomplish something and instead bringing disaster upon its owner.

Perfect timing! You've all shown me no respect, you scary old lady. Just wait and see what I get my revenge on!

She altered her voice with a mask, mixing it into a deep, mixed tone of men and women, and then donned a cloak to conceal her body and face, turning herself into a silhouette with only her blood-red eyes showing.

Then, his mouth suddenly widened, revealing countless sharp teeth, and he chuckled tremulously:

"We...are the Shadows..."

"We...are watching you..."

"Immortality...Secret Meeting...Heh...There is neither immortality...nor a secret..."

"But we... are the truly immortal beings..."

Upon hearing this, Sun Haoqiang broke out in a cold sweat. He wanted to say something, but the words stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter a sound.

He could only stare wide-eyed as the dark shadows on the tree vanished with the wind.

Several crows took flight, flapping their wings.

Volume 1: Chapter 35: The Girl Recuperating

Late at night, Bai Jinxuan returned home and carefully examined the medicine powder she had left behind.

The taste was indeed that of Rafflesia, but its origin is still unclear; all that is known is that it is related to Rafflesia.

To figure out how this potion was made, it seems we'll need to go down to the second underground level again.

Bai Jinxuan sighed and began to examine her left hand.

Her slender arms were bound by strips of pristine white bandages, which spiraled upwards, reaching all the way to the inside of her pajamas...

These bandages are magical, because her body is immune to the effects of medicine, so this is the only way to speed up the healing of her wounds.

Although the process is relatively slow, it can heal injuries while practicing Qi, so it's still cost-effective.

Of course, compared to life-saving potions, this thing is still too troublesome.

Strictly speaking, the bandage only served to stop the bleeding; the magic was simply to provide Bai Jinxuan with a recovery environment.

Sleeping in the undeveloped area on the second underground level will heal your wounds at a speed almost identical to this thing.

Even so, it cost Bai Jinxuan 10,000 yuan.

If it weren't for the fact that attending class with an injury would significantly impact his performance, he would never have bought such an expensive bandage.

"Damn it, it's all that Undying Secret Society's fault. Otherwise, how could I have gotten injured and had to spend money to buy this kind of thing?"

Bai Jinxuan felt so angry that her teeth itched at the thought of being chased and bitten by a rabid dog.

Tier 3 is simply an insurmountable gap. She can handle Tier 1 and Tier 2 opponents, but against Tier 3, her little tricks and schemes are completely useless.

We must improve our abilities as soon as possible, otherwise similar incidents will continue to occur.

She's too weak right now.

If you want to do business with the Evil Heavenly Tree, you have to defeat it first.

She simply couldn't afford a potion that cost 10 per bottle. Forcing herself to fight against it might lead to the same fate as that magician—a life worse than death.

There were also the two items: the reward of mortal bones and the cry of the living dead. She couldn't even steal them, let alone rob them.

Having already revealed all the abilities and information he could demonstrate, it was uncertain whether he could escape if he faced them again.

However, although he did not obtain any physical items, he did learn a lot of intelligence.

A rough map of the second underground level, showing the distribution of monsters, the location of safe zones, and the abilities, skill levels, and objectives of the three individuals...

She pulled out a chair, lay down on the bed, stared at the ceiling, and pondered deeply.

"What exactly is the Source of Life? It seems to be related to the Life Potion. The Undying Secret Society went to great lengths to attack the potion factory, just to make the Life Potion? That would be too stupid."

"Should we report this to the union?"

Bai Jinxuan thought about it and concluded that she would not report it.

The reason is simple: she didn't even have an exploration permit. If she were to report to the union, she could only do so via notes or messages. The union would find it hard to believe information without any source of identification.

Not only that, even if he successfully reports to the guild, he won't get any money, but the price will be that the two items will end up in the hands of the guild.

Bai Jinxuan could not accept this.

She dared to steal from the Undying Guild, but it was already kept in the guild.

She really didn't dare to have any more ideas about noodles.

After all, if she goes against the Undying Secret Society, the most powerful force that will come is a Tier 3, but if she goes against the guild, the force that will come might be Tier 8. How can she possibly fight them?

Therefore, he planned to keep the two items at the Undying Secret Society for safekeeping, and then secretly observe their movements. When the time was right, he would avenge his previous humiliation!

Anyway, she won't lose anything. If all else fails, she can just throw away those two props and make money selling gender reassignment drugs. She can make quite a bit of money that way.

There are plenty of ways to make money on the second basement level.

Thinking of this, she chuckled.

Overall, we still made a profit. The intelligence was also a benefit. Let's get some rest early tonight and head straight to the second level tomorrow!

It's time to expand into new businesses!

------------------

The next day, Bai Jinxuan's injuries had not fully healed.

With no other option, she could only wrap her entire body in bandages and use Qi cultivation to improve her physical condition in order to speed up the healing of her wounds.

Fortunately, Bai Jinxuan only suffered superficial injuries. If that mad dog had gotten close and punched her directly, she probably would have lost half her life.

All I can say is that Sun Haoqiang is doomed.

Fortune changes every thirty years, so never underestimate a young girl's poverty!

Once I have money, I'll immediately place an order for a dead group to be buried outside, and have high-level explorers wipe you all out.

Seeing Bai Jinxuan's gloomy face, clearly indicating she was in a bad mood, all the classmates who wanted to talk to her wisely avoided her and looked for another opportunity.

Because Bai Jinxuan usually slacked off at school, even though she was injured, her performance wasn't much different. Before she knew it, it was evening.

The bandage, worth 10,000 yuan, has lost its effectiveness and is now a useless prop. It would be better to take a medicinal bath for an hour.

Bai Jinxuan felt a pang of regret; she had just asked for 80,000.

Hopefully, we can make back what we lost this time.

She slowly unwrapped the bandages from her body, revealing skin as smooth as cream.

This is the benefit of body tempering; the natural recovery rate is very fast. If it were a mage, these injuries would take at least a week to heal.

Unless healing magic is used.

What? Some healing magic can restore wounds in an instant?

That's alright then. When will I be able to learn some healing magic?

She glanced at the magic shop officially launched by the guild on her phone, and well, the prices were beyond her reach.

Even if she bought it, she couldn't afford to use it. She can't use magic potions, so the efficiency is not as good as practicing Qi cultivation.

She sighed, wrapped her cloak around herself, tied her soft silver hair into a bun, and then pulled the hood over her head.

Shield, activate!

Looking at her reflection in the mirror—a hooded figure with shadows inside and only two beams of red light, symbolizing eyes, sweeping across her—Bai Jinxuan nodded in satisfaction.

Fully equipped, no issues, Over!

Volume 1: Chapter 36: The Girl Who Benefited from the Fisherman's Opportunity

In the darkness, Bai Jinxuan slowly opened her eyes.

Because she had to urgently join the battle yesterday to help the defenders sound the alarm, the location she marked wasn't ideal; it was right at the entrance to the attacked safe zone.

At a glance, a whole row of soldiers stood ready at the intersection.

Now that they've strengthened their defenses, why don't they come when they hear the alarm?

Bai Jinxuan muttered something indignantly.

She had originally planned to go back to the factory to pick up some more trash, but now there's nothing left to pick up.

Forget it, since picking up trash will most likely yield some life potions anyway, I won't waste my time with these people who are just getting paid without working.

She turned and left, heading towards the undeveloped area on the second floor.

The terrain on the second level is much more complex than that on the first level, including jungles, swamps, and wastelands.

The Potions Capital is built on wasteland, which is the safest place, because, generally speaking, the monsters on the second level are all plant-type, officially referred to as predatory plants.

As their name suggests, these plants are man-eating. They are most abundant in jungles and relatively less so in swamps.

Therefore, when encountering jungle terrain, explorers who lack confidence in their abilities often choose to return the way they came.

But Bai Jinxuan is different. She came to find the Rafflesia. If she doesn't go to the jungle, is she going to go to the wasteland?

Even Tier 3 fighters can only detect me if I make a move; stealthily running around the map is nothing to them.

With this in mind, she wandered around the undeveloped area.

Although she didn't find any trace of the skeleton soldiers, she did find the Rafflesia flower as she had hoped.

It was an extremely large flower with thick, deep red leaves covered in patterns, making it look exceptionally alluring.

However, there was another creature in Bai Jinxuan's field of vision.

It is entirely green, with asymmetrical eyes on its head, a wide-open mouth filled with dark red flesh, and numerous, sharp, vertically arranged teeth that it bites fiercely at the petals of the Rafflesia.
