Cultivation, I have a world of high martial arts

Lin's Xiaoxuan in Shanfang City, Changchun.

It's August, and the heat is getting stronger.

Even the female nuns walking on the street were wearing cooler clothes.

More than a month has passed since Lin Chen broke through to the foundation building stage.

Inside the store, a miniature ice formation exudes a slight chill.

Lin Chen lay leisurely on the rocking chair to enjoy the coolness, dozing off with half-closed eyes.

"Shopkeeper! I really came out of the west today... your shop is actually open?"

There was a voice outside the door. Lin Chen opened his eyes, saw the person clearly, stood up and said with a smile:

"It turns out it's Fellow Daoist Liu... What pills do you need this time?"

The visitor's name is Liu Jiguang, a casual cultivator in the foundation building period, and a frequent visitor to the store.

It contracted two mines near Hantan on the mountain, mainly buying and selling cold iron stones and the like.

"Two bottles of Qi Yi Dan, one bottle of Qi Blood Dan..."

Liu Jiguang looked around, and when he saw no one, he lowered his voice and said:

"Another bottle of Yebodan... Fellow Daoist Lin, the effect of your Yebodan is really good!"

Lin Chen smiled slightly after hearing this, took a few bottles of elixirs and handed them over.

"If you put a zero on Fellow Daoist Liu, it will count as sixty spirit stones!"

Liu Jiguang nodded after hearing this, took the elixir and paid the spirit stone.

Lin Chen thought for a while and asked again:

"Fellow Daoist Liu, I still have some cold iron stone in stock. My weapon refining consumes a lot of money... I'd better get another five or six thousand kilograms."

Liu Jiguang was not surprised by this. This was not the first time he had dealt with Lin Chen.

Although the transaction volume was quite large, he didn't delve into it. How could he not do door-to-door transactions?

"It's easy to talk about... This month's mine has just been mined. I will send it to you in a few days!"

Lin Chen nodded after hearing this and paid a deposit of five hundred spirit stones.

After Liu Jiguang left, Lin Chen lay on the rocking chair, covering his face with a paper fan, and continued to doze off.

Not long after, footsteps came from the store.

"Fellow Taoist, what kind of elixir should I buy?" Lin Chen asked without raising his head.

"Senior Brother Lin, it's me!"

Huang Xin's voice came to his ears.

"It's Ashin. What brought you to the store today?" Lin Chen stood up and asked curiously.

Huang Xin first took out the storage bag and handed it over.

"Senior Brother Lin, this is this month's elixir. There are 2,376 plants in total...I have counted them all."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up after hearing this. He put the elixir into the purple jade gourd and returned the storage bag.

"Axin, there are almost fifty disciples in the medicine garden, right? As a manager of the medicine garden, your salary is going to increase!"

"How about twenty spirit stones per month?"

After hearing this, Huang Xin's face lit up with joy, and he quickly raised his hands and said:

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin!"

After receiving the spirit stone, Huang Xin opened his mouth to speak, but his face was a little twisted.

Lin Chen saw this and said:

"Axin, you are not an outsider... just say what you have to say."

After hearing this, Huang Xin nodded and whispered:

"Senior Brother Lin, I would like to take a few days off."

"The sect competition will be held in three days... I want to participate and see if I can gain the identity of an inner disciple."

Lin Chen looked surprised when he heard this, but it made sense when he thought about it carefully.

In the past few months, Huang Xin worked under him and earned a lot of spiritual stones.

Although his qualifications are mediocre, he has reached the third level of Qi Refining.

I'm afraid I also bought one or two magic weapons to keep with me. With such strength, I can really try my luck in the sect competition.

The Changchun Sect Sect Competition is held every three years and is divided into two internal and external competitions.

There are thousands of outer disciples, and no less than several hundred people participate in the competition.

The top eight from the outer gate in each session are qualified to enter the inner gate.

As for the inner disciples, there are only a few hundred in total.

Representing the four peaks of the Alchemy Formation Tool Talisman, each peak sent several disciples to compete in batches according to the year they entered the sect.

Divided into five-year disciples, ten-year disciples, and twenty-year disciples...

For example, Lin Chen is the new disciple of this year.

Then his opponents are the disciples of this year and the disciples of the previous year.

"Speaking of which, the rewards for the sect competition seem to be quite high... Even though I have established a foundation, it is still necessary to participate in this competition."

Lin Chen thought silently in his heart.

The first place in the sect competition will not only be rewarded with a foundation-building pill, but also the contributions of thousands of sects.

There was also something Lin Chen was very concerned about, the qualifications to enter the third and fourth floors of the Sutra Pavilion.

In addition, the resource supply of the four peaks of the Alchemy Formation Talisman is also related to this sect competition.

The reason why Danfeng has few resources is because it has not participated in the past few competitions...

Lin Chen looked at Huang Xin in front of him.

He is not tall. He has been busy in the medicine garden for several months, and his skin has become tanned.

There was a little embarrassment in his expression, and he was a little worried that Lin Chen would not agree.

"Alas, for outer disciples like Ashin, the sect competition is their only chance to turn around...how can I stop him?"

Thinking of this, Lin Chen nodded with a smile and said:

"Okay, a new batch of medicinal materials has just been harvested, so I'll give you a few days off!"

After saying that, Lin Chen touched the storage bag and picked up a long sword.

"Axin, I remember that you use a sword. I will give you this medium-grade long sword for self-defense."

In competitions between outer disciples like Huang Xin, a good magical weapon often determines the outcome of the competition.

Huang Xin took the sword, his eyes again filled with emotion.

"Senior Brother Lin..."

Lin Chen waved his hand and cursed with a smile:

"You kid, stop being so coquettish... you're going to get a good place in the competition, and then you're still working in my medicine garden when you come back?"

After hearing this, Huang Xin hurriedly said:

"I have to do this with senior brother! Without senior brother, how could I, Huang Xin, be here today?"

"I, Huang Xin, will grow spiritual medicine for my senior brother for the rest of his life..."

Lin Chen waved his hand, and Huang Xin left with his long sword.

After glancing at the sky, Lin Chen closed the shop and put up a wooden sign that said "The shopkeeper is out for business, so the shop will be closed for one day."

Lin Chen chose a corner where no one was and changed his appearance and clothes.

"Counting the days, I haven't been to the black market for more than a month..."

"Today is the day when Master Wu Leizi returns to the arena!"

Lin Chen walked around the market several times.

Not long after, he turned and entered the inn called Hua Manlou.

"Master Wu Leizi, you are here?"

As soon as he entered, the young man who had perfected Qi training came up to him. Compared with before, there was more respect in his eyes.

"Well, I'll go in by myself."

Lin Chen did not stop. The identity of Master Wu Leizi had already gained a lot of reputation in the Changchun Mountain black market.

After passing through the long back alley, Lin Chen arrived at the small courtyard in a short while.

At this moment, transactions were going on in the courtyard.

But as soon as Lin Chen arrived, all the casual cultivators stopped trading and came forward at the same time.

"Master Wu Lei Zi, you are finally here! I have been waiting for you for a month!"

"Master Wu Lei Zi, you promised to sell me two Wu Lei Zi last time..."

More than a dozen casual cultivators squeezed forward, fearing that Lin Chen would miss them.

Nowadays, Wu Lei Zi is a hot commodity in the black market.

Lin Chen did not say much and took out twenty Wu Lei Zi.

"Everyone, today we are trading twenty Wu Lei Zi, the price is one hundred spirit stones each, those who want to buy should hurry up..."

After several price fluctuations, the price of Wu Lei Zi stabilized at one hundred spirit stones.

Every time Lin Chen sold twenty pieces, he would get two thousand spirit stones.

It also saved trouble.

After a while, all twenty Wu Lei Zi were sold.

Lin Chen stayed in the courtyard for a while, and when he saw that there was no treasure that interested him, he was ready to turn around and leave.

But just as he left the courtyard, he saw the guard who had reached the perfect state of Qi training blocking his way.

"Master Wu Leizi... our shopkeeper wants to see you. Can you stay for a chat?"
