What the heck, system? What is that wolf you are selling?
[As the description said, it is a living martial apprentice wolf. For further information, the host may try to do some experiment himself.]
Looking at that wolf, Ren Qingquan is incredibly curious. Who knows, the system might secretly start a beast summoning business and he could own several beasts under his command. Just thinking about several ferocious beasts doing the fight for him while he rests at the rear is cool.
He quickly decided to pay a visit at the stall in the outer sect selling miscellaneous things and bought several things to absorb.
Upon arriving, Ren Qingquan quickly opened the system map and purchased many things marked as high energy. In just 5 minutes, his savings decreased by almost 1000 sect coins. In exchange, he gained a total of 20 energy.
On his way back to Formation Peak, he stopped at a deserted part of the sect and purchased the wolf. Immediately, a wolf less than one meter tall spawned next to him. Seeing the wolf appear, he prepared himself for an attack from that wolf. Afterall, the wolf being immediately tamed is merely his guess.
Under Ren Qingquan's expectant eyes. That wolf slowly moved. Or more accurately speaking, it started to tilt and fall.
???Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com? Did you sell me a defective product?'
[No. The system has sold a living wolf and that wolf is living although it seems to have no soul which makes it enter a state similar to coma. Host may try to detect its heartbeat by placing your hand toward its chest.]
"Yep. I found several nice things using my talent and devoured them."
"Devoured?"
"It is a Martial Technique I gained from a dream when on my way to the Martial Spirit Sect."
Ren Qingquan just repeated the story about getting technique from a dream he already told Xiao Ling. Sigh, it seems he is extremely bad at keeping secrets.
"Mhm. I understand. Thank you for your gift. Also, have you used your talent to detect what realm the female elder that fought against Peak Master Fen is?"
"Does uncle mean the elder that keeps on saying she just glided? She has also reached the Martial Lord realm."
Hearing his answer, the Third uncle smiled and seemed to be in an extremely good mood as he whispered something.
"Guess I could blackmail that old hag to take over some of my missions. Otherwise I will sell this information to Peak Master Fen. Did that hag think I will forget how she forced me to take the job as examiner of that recruitment tests. Hehehe"
'What the hell uncle, your image as a cold person with few words is breaking and your sadistic side comes out!'
Seemingly realizing he just spoke out loud, Third uncle coughed in embarrassment.
"*Cough* Anyway, Qingquan, I might need you to meet the Peak Master together with me in the future."
'Uncle, even if you act like nothing happened I still heard what you said just now, you know.'
Promising his uncle that he will follow him to tell the Peak Master about that female elder's realm in the future, Ren Qingquan left the third uncle's room and entered his own room.
Packing most of his belongings, Ren Qingquan decided to continue his journey to level up tomorrow. But, before that he will purchase more metals and scan the other books in the outer sect's library. This time he will stay in Endless Mountain until the next monthly meeting. As it is still the evening, Ren Qingquan started his preparation first.
Due to the small number of disciples in Formation Peak, there is nothing else there except for scenery, residential area, training ground, and a small storage filled with formation books that he had scanned while the older brother introduced him around the peak. Which makes Ren Qingquan need to enter the outer sect disciple area to do most things.
First, Ren Qingquan went to the outer sect's library. Passing through the first floor, he is warned yet again by the disciple guarding the door about the price to enter the second floor. Thanking that disciple, he entered the second floor once again. This time, Ren Qingquan purchased entry to the fourth and fifth floors. Different from second and third floors that only have skills and cost 100 coins per hours to browse, fourth and fifth floors of the library contain a much more diverse collection that the Martial Spirit Sects's higher ups deemed precious, which consist of martial technique, extremely strong skills, and seemingly important miscellaneous knowledge. It also caused the amount of coins required to enter reach a massive 1000 coins per hour and another 1000 coins to copy the books within.
Entering the stair and continuing until the fourth floor, Ren Qingquan gave 3000 coins to the elder sitting there. Gaining 3 hours to browse around, he just immediately ran around without care and only occasionally stopped to pull some random books. Although it caused the elder guarding that floor to glare at him, at least he successfully achieved the target of scanning both floors in two hours.
He also finally found those familiar immortal cultivation-like knowledge at several shelves on the fifth floor. It seems the Martial Spirit Sect held it in high regard and thought of it as an important knowledge. At least compared to the Ren family that just threw it together with other miscellaneous knowledge.
Leaving the library, he went to the shopping area and purchased some metals. Entering several stores selling metals, he spent 5000 coins to purchase around 20 tons of steel. It seems the cost of metals has been steadily increasing nowadays.
After purchasing the steel, he went to a deserted area and stored it in system storage, before returning to the shopping area and bought many foods at several taverns, which Ren Qingquan also stored in system storage. He hadlearned his lesson from eating bland dried meat for two months straight and purchased a normal meal instead.
Taking the mission to kill ferocious beasts, he then returned to formation peak. Tomorrow he will travel outside of the sect. This time, his target is the inner area of Endless Mountain.
***
Meanwhile, Ren Qingchen finally finished his training upon reaching the Grandmaster realm in six days, which is one day earlier than what he predicted. Soon, he joined the Medicine peak as an inner disciple.
Upon arriving at the medicine peak, what comes into his view is a mountain peak that is full of buildings and medicine garden. Soon, he followed one of the senior brothers there to tour the medicine refining peak. While traveling around, that senior brother also explained about the medicine peak. The whole peak has been filled with many residences, medicinal gardens, personal medicine refining rooms, and a huge pagoda used by medicine refining peak disciples to work.
Because every peak could only get one mountain, and medicine peak is one of the peaks with the most disciples which amount close to a thousand. It resulted in the current style of building filling the whole mountain.
After half a day of traveling and being introduced to every building at Medicine Peak, Ren Qingchen could finally start his plan.
