While confined to his room, Eadric Rong began his plan to consume one herbal ingredient after another. But the question was how to consume them?Once, when he was on the run with Priest Zhang, the priest briefly explained:"The easiest way to utilize resources, even if you're not an alchemist, is to extract the materials by boiling them!"At that time, Eadric Rong, who had always been given resources in the form of pills or liquid potions during his training in Wudang, was naturally surprised by this explanation."Boiling the raw materials? Will we get all the benefits just by consuming the extracted herb?"Smiling, Priest Zhang explained:"Although the boiled water will have benefits for you in the future, as the most basic extraction method, a lot of residual resources remain unextracted and are wasted.""That is why it is best if the source is processed by alchemists and formed into pills. Almost ninety percent of the herbal ingredients' properties are contained in pills!"Recallin
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Jiangzhou City - Part I.
A cold wind struck Eadric Rong's face.The capital city of Daqi looked stunning on that dark night. The glow of lanterns adorning the grand houses shimmered like fireflies from afar."Buddy! What are you looking for? Peeping at others from behind the roof tiles?"Eadric Rong's voice was cold as he addressed the figure dressed in all black, whose face was concealed beneath a straw hat.The shadowy figure crouched low, intently observing Eadric Rong's movements in his room.The scout’s eyes widened in panic upon realizing that the person he had been spying on was now standing atop the ridge of the inn.In a movement too fast to fathom, the scout lunged toward Eadric Rong.WUSH.A sword strike slashed through the air, roaring like a flood, aiming straight for Eadric Rong's chest.Would Eadric Rong be slain by this sudden attack?The thrust of the sword from the man in the straw hat was lightning-fast, slicing through the air with deadly precision.His form became a streak of faded white

"Thankfully, Protector Guo showed mercy in the trial battle earlier. Otherwise, today Huang Lian would already be dead!"The night was getting late, and the sound of thunder in the sky erupted with a booming sound. The lightning continued, making Daqi City feel even more silent and tense.Huang Lian hurriedly left the rooftop of the Moon Orchid Inn, jumping from one rooftop to another.The rain fell heavily, erasing the traces of the battle on the inn's rooftop quickly. Even the aura left behind when the two fighters battled vanished in the rain.+++Jiangzhou City is another first-class city in the Wriston Empire.The city is very crowded with travelers from various regions in Wriston, mainly because there is one very famous tourist spot, namely the Heaven's Tear Lake.It is said that this beautiful lake is surrounded by willow trees growing along its banks, and the lush rows of cypress trees are the attraction of the lake.The water in the lake is very clean and clear. Because of it

He even slapped his ugly face repeatedly while speaking in a sad, hoarse voice,"But all that I'm doing is nothing but saving the Koi Fortune Hall from bankruptcy, by not wasting donation money on figures who take refuge behind the cloak of a pious person like that priest...""Indeed, they are beggars in disguise."There was silence after A'fu apologized with an argument that sounded like he was not a simple person, who only worked as a waiter in the Hall of Fortune Koi.At that time, there was only a puff of white smoke coming out of the room where the sound came from, all with a pungent smell and aroma."Alright... then continue with your work.""But remember, don't drive away someone like that, someone who could potentially become a customer in this hall," the soft-toned voice spoke.A puff of lung-clogging smoke emanated from the room. As A'fu turned around, he smiled with a sneer before leaving.Before long, the sun was leaning more and more towards the west, and the sky had turn
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Black Market.
Readers must be wondering, "What was the mission Ms. Murong gave Eadric Rong through their brief encounter with Huang Lian, the man whose straw hat Eadric Rong had snatched?"Let's take a look at the explanation.As one of the noble families belonging to the Wriston Empire's Four Seasons lineup, the Murong Family owned various businesses.One of these is Koi Fortune, which sells materials and resources needed by martial arts experts to improve their combat and cultivation abilities.Lucky Koi Halls are scattered in almost all cities in Wriston, including Jiang Zhou Town. As the lifeblood of commerce that sustains the Murong Family's economy, the Jiangzhou branch of the Lucky Koi Hall ranks among the top three revenue sources of all branches.Recently, however, sales in Jiangzhou City have seen a significant decline. This decline is due to the scarcity of He Chan Ginseng resources supplied by the Ye Hua Sect.The Ye Hua Sect is a Four Star Sect that had signed a contract with Ms. Muron
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Night Shadow Bureau - Part One.
The next day, at exactly the same time as Du Shui promised, Eadric Rong was already standing in front of the Night Shadow Bureau building in the Black Market.The building looked majestic yet mysterious, with the architecture standing out in the dark crowd of the market."Still with the half-open door, the smell of paper and ink, and the clatter of moving news tubes rubbing together," Eadric Rong thought. He gazed at the building that looked secretive but held many valuable sources of information.Without hesitation, he opened the half-open door and stepped inside.However, there was no one in the room, other than the subtle sound of pipe tubes rubbing together, creating a strangely quiet atmosphere."Lord Du Shui, I'm coming!" shouted Eadric Rong, his voice echoing in the silence.There was no answer from Mr. Du Shui.However, there was another faintly audible voice speaking. That voice seemed to be using the power of pure air, as it was sent from a distant place.The voice sounded l

The sound of water falling from a mini artificial waterfall into a large crock inside the Zen garden synchronized with Eadric Rong's racing heartbeat."Ye Hua Sect dares to play games behind the Fortune Koi Hall? And Sect Vice Leader Khong Tong is involved in all this?" Eadric Rong's heart was filled with questions. Anger began to burn within him.Feeling still unclear, Eadric Rong asked again in a curious tone, "But why does Tang Chuan want Sect Leader Ye Hua to transfer all the raw materials of He Chan Ginseng resources to the Tang Noble Family? If she needs money, can't she go to Miss Murong and ask for tribute? Why should he oppress and force Sect Leader Ye Hua to betray after Sect Leader Ye Hua received financial donations and a lot of resources for the sect's advancement?"Silence prevailed. Only the sound of water splashing and bamboo leaves rustling in the Zen garden could be heard, creating a profound atmosphere.Cautiously, Mr. Ma Hu asked Eadric Rong, "Dao Shi... do you not
The Secret of The Demonic Artifact Events of Qingsong Forest.
Time had already shown Chou Shi, as the second bugle sounded.In Qingsong Pine Forest, a forest located in the middle of the border between Ye Hua Sect and Jiangzhou City, there was a group of men sitting on horses.Two large train cars were also visible there. They were members of the Silver Horse Expedition, led by Song Xuefeng."Tonight is our scheduled time for transporting those resources. Why is it that until now, when the time has entered the second chime, the people of the Ye Hua Sect have yet to show their faces?""Did something go wrong?" asked Jiang Lingxin, addressing their leader, Song Xuefeng."We still have to wait until sunrise, as agreed, Young Master!" replied Song Xuefeng.His hands were clenched, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead despite the cold night breeze penetrating to the bone.Two hours had passed, but the Ye Hua Sect party had yet to arrive. According to calculations, they were supposed to be on their way to deliver goods from Ye Hua Sect to Qingsong

"Isn't it possible that the Zhen Long pill, the grand prize we're after, will be brought in by an expert from the neighboring Empire. That would tarnish the face of all the cultivators of this country!" worried murmurs could be heard from various directions.Meanwhile, on the other side, the Five Star Sect seats that were filled with an aura of majesty seemed to flinch. Even so, dissatisfaction was clearly visible in their eyes. Everyone there was angry, though restrained themselves very well."Should I go forward?" Zhou Wen, the young genius of the Blue Sky Sect, asked quietly to his Sect Leader, Liang Tiancheng. The look in his eyes signaled his readiness to act."No need," Liang Tiancheng replied, his voice firm. "There are still four other Five Star Sects ranked below you. Stay in your seat, show your attitude as a supreme power holder."Zhou Wen nodded, accepting the order with humility. Although his desire to advance was strong, he still respected his leader's decision.With thi
Ten Minutes to Triumph.
"Look, Li Yong from Xuehua Academy. Are you going to face me with the Sacred Heart Sword move?" asked Bao Xuan in a calm tone, yet there was a mocking tone in it.He fanned his sweaty body, his face showing a hint of fatigue from the previous fight.The presence of the two geniuses of the Five Star Sect was indeed quite draining for Bao Xuan, although he still tried to maintain his imperious appearance.Then, Bao Xuan clapped loudly, and suddenly a man emerged from the crowd. The man looked unknown, but he was carrying a bottle of water and a pill. The imperial officials standing around the stage allowed the man to approach Bao Xuan without hindrance.With a sly smile that expressed satisfaction, Bao Xuan accepted the drink and pills. After taking a sip, he calmly said to Li Yong,"Is Young Swordsman Li Yong willing to give me ten minutes to recover energy? Isn't it tantamount to cheating if you win a fight without giving your opponent a chance to recover after fighting twice in a row
Fan and Shadow Clash.
All eyes were fixed on the stage as the excitement grew.The screeching sound of the demon skull's claws caused a strong wind to whip up, adding to the tension in the air.White smoke billowed out with a choking tension, covering the battle area like an icy fog covering a frozen landscape.Amidst the mist, there was no sound of Bao Xuan howling in pain, as if he was untouched by Wei Qiang's attack.The silence added to the anxiety in the hearts of the audience, making them wonder:"Is Bao Xuan really that tough? Even Wei Qiang of the Black Shadow Sect couldn't defeat him in ten moves?""Let's hope that at the end of this attack, Wei Qiang will come out victorious!"The audience prayed silently, full of worry.Bao Xuan's extremely confident actions earlier had planted a seed of doubt in their minds. The roar of the crowd filled the air, adding to the tension and anticipation of the outcome of this fight.Just then, the cold winter wind blew, the white smoke from Wei Qiang's attack bega
Bao Xuan Sang Roque Cultivator.
The contest rules prohibiting a fight to the death no longer mattered to him. His resolve was made—if necessary, he would drag Bao Xuan into the abyss of death together."In that case, prepare to die!" shouted Jiang Hui, his voice echoing, shaking the arena filled with spectators. His sword flashed, slashing through the air with unimaginable speed, as if about to split the sky.In an instant, a sword beam emitting silver light spread across the entire stage, forming a powerful vortex of energy. Snow flakes flew out, blown by the sharp gusts of wind caused by his sword movements, creating the illusion of a blizzard enveloping the entire arena.However, as the sword light and snow flakes faded, and the rumbling sound that resembled crashing waves subsided, Bao Xuan was still standing tall in the center of the stage.His body did not flinch in the slightest. His face remained calm, even looking a little bored. His handsome face exuded a haughty air, while the faint smile that graced his
The Meeting of Dragons Begins – Part II.
If only there wasn't a rule prohibiting the Five Star Sect from competing with the Four Star Sect, the geniuses of the Five Star Sect might have already stepped onto the stage to humiliate Jiang Hui who was now standing arrogantly before everyone.When everyone was almost certain that Jiang Hui would win the Dragon Meeting for geniuses of the Four Star Sect, suddenly a shadowy figure flashed at an incredible speed, difficult for ordinary eyes to follow.In an instant, a young man was standing on the stage, stealing the show with his striking appearance.The young man looked like a descendant of nobility, no more than twenty years old. He wore a soft blue tunic with intricate patterns, showing his status and wealth. The long jacket that covered his heels was made of selected silk, flowing gracefully in the cold winter wind, adding a sense of elegance to his figure.His face was handsome, but a sardonic smile was clearly etched on his lips. He wore the typical skullcap of an imperial of
The Meeting of Dragons Begins.
As they spoke, the crowd around them intensified, and the sound of the gong resounding three times signaled that the "Meeting of Dragons" event was about to begin."The Dragon Meeting is about to begin!" whispered Ouyang Fai enthusiastically, his voice almost drowned out by the noise.Amidst the hustle and bustle, the sound of heavy, echoing horse hooves began to sound from the direction of the imperial palace. The sound grew closer, distracting everyone's attention.When the anticipated figure appeared, there was a moment of silence, only to be broken by the crowd's amazement.A war knight clad in silver armor, which shone in the sunlight, appeared gallantly on a pure white horse like snow.The horse's steps were slow but steady, adding an aura of majesty to the scene. The horse, more surprisingly, had wide wings that looked shiny, adding a magical and mysterious feel to the whole appearance."Suiji Ma!" "Sembrani Horse!" shouted several people in the crowd, their voices full of admi
Surprise after surprise.
Eadric Rong watched the man standing in the center of the crowd with a sharp gaze. The man looked majestic and imposing, surrounded by Golden Sword Sect disciples marching in a respectful manner.Amidst the echoing cheers and shouts from the audience, Eadric Rong remained calm, unperturbed by the crowd around him. The sounds of applause and cheers praising the Golden Sword Sect blended together, creating a very festive atmosphere on the field."Is he the so-called Leader Shen Yutian, the leader of the Golden Sword Sect?" asked Eadric Rong inwardly, his sharp eyes scrutinizing every detail of the man's appearance curiously.Shen Yutian stood in an authoritative manner among his disciples, wearing robes that seemed to glow with a golden color under the light of the crescent moon.The robe, though similar in design to the Taoist Priest's clothing, was made of fine silk that drifted gently around his body, adding a sense of luxury.His hair was neatly combed up, forming a bun that was hel
Arrival of Invited Guests.
In the invited guests' quarters of the Jin Shuang Imperial court, the atmosphere was suddenly tense as the Black Shadow Sect Leader, Gong Fang, appeared. The oppressive aura he spread pervaded the air, making everyone present feel a tense pressure.Everyone's gaze was instantly lowered, crushed by his dominant presence.However, the oppressive aura soon faded.Suddenly, a well-dressed man in a dark blue velvet robe appeared with a confident stride."Xue Hua Academy," "Isn't that martial arts academy leader Xue Hua?"Whispers ensued, and all the spotlight instantly moved to the newly arrived figure, who was called from Xue Hua Academy.Apparently, the appearance of this newly arrived figure, although not much different in age from Gong Fang, but his young-looking face, like a young man in his twenties, exudes an alluring charisma.His dramatic appearance caught everyone's attention.As a newcomer to the Jin Shuang Empire, Eadric Rong was clearly confused by the names of the night's cel
Arriving at Capital.
Eadric Rong made the long journey on foot to Xuefeng Du Town, spending nearly two months on the winding, challenging roads.He deliberately chose the grueling overland journey, using every opportunity to practice the Ferris Wheel Sword Art and meditate in an attempt to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level.However, no matter how hard he tried, every attempt ended in vain, as if there was an invisible wall blocking his progress."I really need to get Zhen Long Pills to break through to the Golden Lotus Swordsman level," Eadric Rong muttered to himself as he stood before the East gate of Xuefeng Du City.The towering city fortress, painted in a faded gray-white color, stood firmly in front of him. The road above the fort was lined with soldiers on patrol, creating a haunting atmosphere but at the same time providing a sense of security for the townspeople.One of the soldiers guarding the entrance, a man with a hard face and a sharp gaze, glanced at Eadric Rong."Daozhang,
