His cultivation level at the first stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm was still too weak. Perhaps it could establish a foothold within the Yunjian Sect’s territory, but it seemed a bit forced in the Dayue Black Market.
The strength of Taoist Xiuyu from Heaven Ruin Palace was just observed to be terrifying, especially in terms of speed, which was beyond what ordinary cultivators at the third stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm could compare to.
“There are many outstanding and distinct individuals in this world.”
“There are many people who are stronger than oneself. There isn’t a lack of prodigies either.”
“One must never become arrogant or complacent.”
Consequently, after thinking for a moment, Su Yu secretly thought, “In the future. I’ll still mainlv focus on cultivation. The Dlans for the Dill store can be put on hold for now. With the profits from the Eight Demons Mountain Market, I actually already have enough resources to support a period of cultivation. ”
“My advantage lies in the future, and in my lifespan. I can afford to wait.”
“So, I shouldn’t be impatient. I need to focus on increasing my cultivation strength first.’
With resolute determination, he recovered the tranquility that he usually had in the Yun Mountain Market.
Afterward, he probed the jade slip in his hand with his mental energy. It was filled with quite a bit of information.
For example, the Core Formation expert from Dayue Palace who is stationed at Dayue Black Market is known as ‘Taoist of Fierce Liquor’. He has a strong fondness for alcohol and when he is calm, he is like a deep old well. However, when he throws a tantrum, he is like a raging fire, and he has been the overseer of the black market for eight years now.
With the rotation schedule being every twenty years, that means he still has twelve more years to oversee the black market.
Apart from Dayue Palace—the dominant power—there are ten other major powers who have each occupied a number of Tier-3 Spirit Vein caves in the core region of the black market. These powers include Kaiyang Palace, the Sword City Qin Family, Xuanzhen Immortal Gate, the Beast-taming Li Family, the Land Master Ma Family, the Pill Master Li Family, etc. All these families or powers have a Core Formation expert.
More importantly.
Aside from the various powers’ caves, Dayue Black Market is divided into an inner and outer market. The outer market is rather chaotic, where anyone can set up a stall. People can make as much noise and fight over items as they please. The inner market is managed by Dayue Palace and other powers, so as to maintain order; anyone who causes a disturbance will be killed. Of course, they only concern themselves with enforcing order and will not interfere with anything else.
The Yu Family’s cave is relatively closer to the inner market. When the Black Scale Eagle arrived above the cave, a group of the Yu Family’s Qi Refinement cultivators had already come out to greet them.
The size of the area of the cave wasn’t big, considering the Spiritual Mountain and a small pool nearby, it wasn’t even five miles in diameter.
Upon entering the cave, they had tilled some good Spirit Fields under the Spiritual Mountain.
Yu Linfeng, a Yu Family elder who was in the Qi Refinement Realm and had been stationed at the cave for a long time, respectfully followed behind Su Yu and Yu Ke’er, briefing them about the current situation at the cave.
“There are twenty-six units of Spirit Fields that were tilled in the cave, where Spirit Rice is usually grown and which is enough to satisfy the daily needs of the people living at the cave.”
“There are also twelve units of Medicine Fields on the mountain, among which there is one unit of excellent Medicine Field in a blessed land. The spirit soil there is sufficient for the cultivation of second-rank top-grade Spiritual Medicine.”
“At the moment, there are twenty-three people living in the cave, all at the Qi
Refinement Realm. I am the only one at the ninth stage of the Qi Refinement Realm, and we’re all not young anymore. I’m already eighty-four years old this year, and the youngest of the rest are all in their fifties.”
“Oh yes, there is this species of Ice Scale Fish in that little ice pond, which is a spiritual object with excellent taste. If Miss and young master are interested, you can go fishing there in your spare time. That’s the only thing you can do there, as the pond is too deep, reaching an unknowable depth.”
Once they reached Spiritual Mountain at the center of the cave, a small blessed land manor was built at the core of the Spiritual Vein at the summit of the mountain.
With cautiousness painted across his face, Yu Linfeng looked at Su Yu and asked, “Young master, did you come here this time intending to set up a pill store in this place?”
“If that’s the case, in my opinion, you can lease a small store in the Inner Market. The Inner Market is under the watch of Dayue Palace, it has always been safe and there’s never been any disorder, unlike the Outer Market which is full of chaos.’
Shaking his head, Su Yu replied, “I won’t open it for now. I intend to focus on my cultivation for the time being.”
In this way, Su Yu, Yu Ke’er, Yu Qianqing, and the rest temporarily settled in the cave.
Other than cultivation, Su Yu spent most of his time guiding Yu Qianqing, Su Rui’an, and the others in the art of alchemy. Besides that, he would occasionally stroll around the cave or the black market outside to familiarize himself with the area.
There was another cave not far from Yu Family’s cave. The neighbor wasn’t a cultivation family or power, but rather a cave rented by six second-tier all-around cultivators. Among them were a Pill Master, an Artifact Refiner, a Talisman Master, a Puppet Master, an Array Master, and a Spirit Plant cultivator. They named their cave ‘Hundred Treasures Mountain’.
The leader of Hundred Treasures Mountain was the Array Master, as he was a second-tier top-grade Array Master.
The remaining Pill Master, Talisman Master, and Spirit Plant cultivator were second-tier mid-grade cultivators.
As for the Artifact Refiner and Puppet Master, they were only second-tier low-grade cultivators.
A month after moving to the Dayue Black Market cave, Su Yu went with Yu Ke’er and the others to visit the neighbors at Hundred Treasures Mountain, bringing a gift.
In fact, Su Yu mainly wanted to meet that second-tier top-grade Array Master.
The Mountain Protection Array of the cave was just a second-tier mid-grade array. If possible, he planned to replace it with a second-tier top-grade one. However, there was no hurry. He could make a decision after getting to know about the Array Master’s reputation.
After returning to the cave, Su Yu stopped venturing out and focused on quietly cultivating.
Time flew by, and more than a year passed.
“Hum!”
In the secluded room, Su Yu was sitting cross-legged, cultivating the
Mysterious Thick Earth Technique. After the breakthrough to the Foundation
Establishment Realm with Green Wood Year Ring Skill, the mastery level of the Mysterious Thick Earth Technique had been increasing at a rapid pace, several times or even ten times as fast as before.
Now, the mastery level of his Mysterious Thick Earth Technique was on the verge of breaking through the tenth layer.
As Su Yu swallowed a pill of perfect quality for Qi Refinement, combined with the rich nature’s spiritual energy provided by the second – tier Spirit Vein..
