During this month, the human cultivators had already set up several gathering points.
These gathering places were like the cultivators' headquarters, guarded by the various great alliances.
Here, the cultivators could take what they wanted freely.
Those with high cultivation could kill monsters and obtain crystals in exchange for a large amount of heaven and earth treasures.
Those with weaker cultivations would avoid the monsters and head out to search for various heavenly materials. Their goal was to obtain a certain amount of crystals from those with stronger cultivation.
To them, killing monsters was a narrow escape from death. However, going out to find these cultivation resources was relatively easy. In this small world where the resources were plentiful, as long as one was careful to avoid the spies of the monsters, they would usually be able to return with a plentiful harvest. They used these heavenly materials to increase their cultivation, exchanging the excess heavenly materials for crystals, hoping to enter the top 1000.
In addition to these, there were other trades in these stalls as well. For example, pill refiners, blacksmiths, talisman masters, array masters... They made use of their specialties and also earned quite a bit of money.
"Chen Feng, you saved us this time, so we must thank you properly. Come with us to the gathering place on the other side of the lake. There are some of our friends there. I believe they will be very happy to befriend you." Nalan Yanran said.
"That's fine too. It's also good to have a look." Chen Feng nodded and agreed. In some places where human cultivators were gathered, they could gather some useful information.
"Great, we will set off now." Nalan Yanran revealed a smile and seemed very happy.
Then she held her sister's hand and said, "Sister, let's go."
However, her little sister's face was pale. She shook her head and said in a weak voice, "Big Sister, I'm too injured. I'm afraid I won't be able to cross this lake."
"It's okay, I'll carry you. When we get to the gathering place, we will use these treasures to exchange for a few healing pills, and you will be fine. " Nalan Yanran pretended that she wanted to carry her little sister.
Seeing this pair of sisters with deep feelings for each other, a hint of gentleness flashed through Chen Feng's eyes.
From the conversation just now, Chen Feng had already found out the age of the two. The one who was more lively was his elder sister, Nalan Hongyan. The one who was gentle and quiet was his younger sister, Nalan Ruo Shui. They were twin sisters who had grown up in a deep relationship with each other.
"Alright, there's no need to rush. Let's first treat our injuries." Chen Feng said softly. Then, two pills flew out from his hands and landed in the hands of the sisters, Nalan Hongyan and Nalan Ruo Shui.
"One pill for each person, hurry up and consume it. It won't take more than a few hours before you'll fully recover." As Chen Feng spoke, he sat cross-legged by the lake and closed his eyes in silence.
The two sisters looked at each other, and after exchanging expressions for a while, they opened their small mouths and swallowed the pills.
The medicinal strength soon arrived. Their expressions became serious. Then, they sat down cross-legged and began to refine the medicinal strength.
This lasted for several hours. In the blink of an eye, the blood-red sun gradually set. Dusk had arrived.
The two girls both woke up, each one in high spirits, with hidden emotions on their faces.
On the other side, Chen Feng stood silently by the lake, looking at the vast lake in the distance. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"Hello, Chen Feng." Nalan Yanran called out softly.
"Hmm? "He's awake." Chen Feng turned around and smiled faintly at the two girls.
"Mm, I woke up." Nalan Ruo lowered her head and responded softly. This beautiful girl was still as gentle and shy as before.
On the other hand, Nalan Yanran walked casually to Chen Feng's side and said with an excited expression: "Chen Feng, the pill that you gave us earlier was really powerful. It only took a few hours for both of us to recover."
Nalan Yanran's face was beaming with happiness as she said, "You should know that even the most powerful alchemist in the entire area would not be able to concoct such a good pill." Chen Feng, where did you get this pill from? I didn't see you carrying a bag, did I? Don't tell me you have a secret pocket on your pants? "
Hearing Nalan Yanran's words, even Nalan Ruo looked strangely at Chen Feng. Her eyes were full of curiosity.
One must know that at that time, Chen Feng was not wearing any clothes. He was only wearing a pair of pants. And the pants didn't seem to have any pockets. Then, where did Chen Feng take out the pill from?
After being asked by Nalan Hongyan, Chen Feng's expression froze. How could he have forgotten about this crucial point? He couldn't possibly tell them that the pill was taken from the Heavenly Pill Immortal Manor, right?
Helpless, Chen Feng could only bite the bullet and say, "Naturally, this pill has always been hidden on my body."
"Then where did you hide it?" Nalan Yanran asked until the end.
"In my pants."
"Where are the pants? You don't have any pockets on your pants. "
"It's in there." Chen Feng's face turned red.
"There's something inside?" Why didn't she see where the pockets were? At that time, she was displeased: "Alright, Chen Feng, even now, you're still lying to me. Tell me, where is the pocket in your pants?" Don't tell me your pocket has the function of a spatial treasure.
"It's really inside." Chen Feng broke out in a cold sweat as he said awkwardly.
"I'd like to take a closer look at where you're bulging." Nalan Yanran's temper rose as her large eyes immediately and fiercely scanned Chen Feng's pants. In the next moment, her gaze fell on one of Chen Feng's bulging areas and she froze.
"Don't misunderstand, it's not here." Chen Feng hurriedly shook his hands and awkwardly clamped his legs together.
"Chen Feng, you're so disgusting!" Nalan Hongyan only felt a sour feeling in her stomach. He fiercely glared at Chen Feng and pulled her sister, whose face was already completely red, into the air before flying towards the other side of the lake.
Chen Feng rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly. "Women really know how to guess randomly."
… ….
After crossing the lake, it only took them five minutes to reach the gathering point.
This gathering point was built under a valley. Rows of wooden houses were built in this valley. Looking at the old and new wood, it was obvious that they had only been newly built a few days ago.
At this time, it was already dusk. Many cultivators that had been searching outside for an entire day had returned at this time.
Therefore, the gathering place was rather lively at the moment.
"Chen Feng, don't take offense to my sister's temper. She'll be fine after a while." Nalan Ruo walked beside Chen Feng and tried to persuade him in a low voice.
Chen Feng smiled as he shook his head, indicating that he did not mind.
Earlier, Nalan Yanran did not give Chen Feng a good look. After entering this gathering area, she left without saying a word, leaving only Nalan Ruo Shui to accompany Chen Feng.
To be honest, Chen Feng was really not angry. On the contrary, Nalan Hongyan's hateful temper was rather to Chen Feng's taste.
"Chen Feng, the trading plaza is not far ahead. The goods and materials we searched for from the outside are all traded here." After walking for a while, Nalan Ruo pointed to a place in front of them that was not small.
Chen Feng glanced over and saw that quite a few cultivators were sitting cross-legged on the ground with various items piled up in front of them.
"Huh?" Chen Feng's gaze suddenly moved. Then, a peculiar expression appeared on his face. "This is really a narrow path for enemies."
