The Invincible Supreme Medical God-Chapter 1006 - 545: Xiangyun Peak
...
"Brother Bai, I have to go down the mountain tomorrow, so I can't accompany you to the Holy Scripture Hall. At dawn, go there to obtain the remaining mnemonic for the Violet Qi Cauldron Control Art. You can also select a magical technique from their options. It's a great opportunity to get something for free. After that, you will have to pay merit points for any magical technique you want."
"If there's anything you don't understand, you can always come and find me. My name is Hou Yunfei. I am very grateful for Xiao Mei taking care of me." Hou Yunfei smiled, clasped his hands together, and bowed, then turned and walked away.
"Hou Yunfei?" Yan Xiaobao released his bow and watched Hou Yunfei leave. After some thought, he recalled the face of a young woman.
"Hou Xiaomei!" he thought, blinking. He suddenly realized he was very lucky, as if he had pushed a random stick into the ground only for it to grow into a lovely shade tree.
After a while, he took a deep breath and looked at his courtyard residence. His eyes sparkled as he stood tall under the moonlight.
"Well, I suppose being an Outer Sect Disciple isn't so bad after all!" He flung his sleeves and walked into the courtyard. Moonlight flooded Xiangyun Peak of the Soul Stream, shrouding it in some mist, making the whole scene very beautiful.
About halfway up the eastern side of the mountain, at the end of a small path, was a courtyard residence. The courtyard itself was as large as a field, filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants. The residence itself was a small wooden cabin with a table and a bed, all made of some sort of magenta wood, emanating a lovely fragrance. This place was far superior to anywhere in the servant's quarters. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
The fields in the yard had been cleared and prepared for planting. There was even a well in one corner. Yan Xiaobao looked around in the moonlight, his eyes sparkling with satisfaction.
"Outer Sect Disciples are the official disciples of the Spiritual Flow Sect, so naturally, they receive better compensation than servants. This residence is really nice, although, I remember Big Brother saying that the Inner Sect disciples live in Immortal Caves... I wonder what those are like." Yan Xiaobao looked up toward the top of Xiangyun Peak.
Only inner disciples are qualified to live in the upper half of the mountain.
After a while, he went back inside his little wooden cabin, lazily stretched, and took out his satchel. After carefully patting it, a bottle of pills and a string of green incense appeared before him.
"Wow, this stuff is awesome," he thought, fondly hugging the bag. After a while, his eyes landed on the medicine bottle and the green incense. The label on the medicine bottle read "Spirit Condensation." As for the incense, it was inscribed with the words "Green Ascension" on the side. He had received similar items when he was a servant. Consuming such pills would enhance his cultivation base, and inhaling the smoke from the burning incense would have a similar effect.
"It would be a big waste to use them as they are. It would be much better to use spirit enhancement on them first. Maybe I can even use them to break through the bottleneck in my cultivation base." After some thought, he made a decision. However, he only had plain firewood at hand, so he decided to go down the mountain the next morning to get better stuff.
Having made his decision, he sat cross-legged and began to meditate. When it came to his cultivation, he never gave up. Although his progress had slowed recently, he still spent time on it every day.
The whole purpose of practicing cultivation is to live forever, so of course, he would stick to it.
The night passed smoothly and quickly. Sunlight pierced through the thin mist, seemingly bringing down precious treasures. Yan Xiaobao had been cultivating all night. He opened his eyes, put on his Outer Sect Disciple's clothes, and hurriedly left his little wooden cabin to find the Scripture Pavilion that Brother Hou mentioned the day before.
The Holy Scripture Hall was some distance from his own residence, located on the other side of the mountain. It took about an hour of walking before he could see a group of towering pagodas in the distance. They emitted shimmering light and pulsed pressure in all directions.
He encountered quite a few other Outer Sect Disciples, all busy and bustling. When they sensed that Yan Xiaobao was only at the third level of Qi Condensation, they completely ignored him.
Yan Xiaobao didn't care, but considering that most of the disciples he encountered had a cultivation base far higher than his own, he acted cautiously. Some even had cultivation bases so high they were difficult to discern. These individuals always had crowds of other disciples gathered around them, laughing and chatting as they walked.
The closer he got to the Holy Scripture Hall, the more disciples he saw. Just as he was about to enter the area of the building itself, a beam of light flew down from a distant mountain peak towards the area. Within the light, it was possible to see a young man standing on a flying disc, circling around Feiyun Peak, and then flying back into the distance.
"That's Qian Dajin from the Judicial Hall! Brother Qian!"
"Brother Qian is an inner disciple and a member of the Judicial Hall. He's very famous! I heard that he's in the great circle of the eighth level of Qi Condensation and can use temporary flying artifacts. I'm so envious!"
Yan Xiaobao also cast a jealous glance. After Qian Dajin disappeared, he sighed inwardly.
"One day, when I can fly, I'll spend time flying around Xiangyun Peak every day!" he mumbled in anticipation, as he started walking towards the crowd heading to the Scripture Pavilion.
