Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

The most top-notch cultivators of Little Black Mountain Market had already gone to besiege the Duo Bao Building and the Cangling Sect's residence, vying for precious resources like Foundation Establishment Techniques, Lifespan Extension Pills, and Foundation Establishment Pills.

The remaining cultivators were mostly those in the Middle Stage of Qi Refining and the Early Qi Refining Stage, robbers who were bullies and cowards, liking to hunt the weak; they all retreated after witnessing Zhao Yu's ferocity.

Zhao Yu picked up the magic artifact he had thrown and then signaled to Li Xianjiao to search the corpses, while he held a medium-grade Spirit Stone in one hand to absorb Spiritual Power, and grasped the Heavy Earth Sword tightly in his other hand to stay on guard.

Li Xianjiao's face was pale, but she still put on gloves with gritted teeth and went to scavenge the bodies.

"Hand over all your valuables, and I can spare both of your lives!"

A bulky figure in a black night suit, Wu Jinlang with a Cultivation Level of Seventh Level of Qi Refining, and holding a high-grade magic Azure Wave Sword, approached from the side. His eyes filled with greed as he looked at Zhao Yu and Li Xianjiao.

The most top-notch cultivators of Little Black Mountain Market had already gone to the Cangling Sect's residence to struggle for the resources of Foundation Establishment; knowing he wasn't strong enough, Wu Jinlang hadn't chosen to go to Cangling Sect, but to hunt those in the Early Stage of Qi Refinement instead.

A cold light flashed in Zhao Yu's eyes as he frantically propelled his Mana, executing the Flying Dagger Technique. With a wave of his hand, the Bronze Awl, emitting a faint Spiritual Light, hurtled towards Wu Jinlang's head.

"Damn it!!"

Wu Jinlang, as a late stage Qi Refinement powerhouse, instantly felt a terrifying sense of danger. With a thought, a medium-grade, palm-sized bronze spirit shield flew out, bursting forth with a faint blue Spiritual Light to shield him.

Clang!

The Bronze Awl fiercely shattered the Spiritual Light of the bronze spirit shield, struck against the shield, and the tremendous force caused the Awl to twist and crack, flying off to the side.

That palm-sized bronze spirit shield also developed numerous web-like cracks and lost its Spirituality, falling to the ground.

Zhao Yu stepped on the Phantom Step and appeared before Wu Jinlang like a phantom. He activated the fortieth layer of the Vajra Dragon Elephant Art, wielding the Heavy Earth Sword, and chopped down fiercely.

Clang!

Wu Jinlang had no choice but to frantically summon his high-grade Azure Wave Sword horizontally, with layers of Spiritual Light surging like azure waves on the sword.

Zhao Yu's sword struck the layers of Azure Wave Spiritual Light. It felt as difficult as striking into a lake, but under the formidable power of his fortieth layer Vajra Dragon Elephant Art, he still managed to break through the layers of light, striking the sword itself and slamming it directly onto Wu Jinlang's head.

Wu Jinlang's skull was instantly crushed inward, his head throbbing with unbearable pain, and blood seeped from his eyes.

Zhao Yu waved his left hand, and the medium-grade Flying Harpoon flew out, penetrating Wu Jinlang's heart and nailing him to the ground.

"Even a late-stage Qi Refinement powerhouse is no match for me! It seems I have truly become much stronger!! Still, this guy is only at the Seventh Level of Qi Refining. There are many more powerful than him in Little Black Mountain Market! I must remain cautious!"

Zhao Yu couldn't help but glance again in the direction of the Cangling Sect Law Enforcement Team's residence, and it took him a while to shift his gaze away.

"Uncle, this is all there is!"

Li Xianjiao, her face pale, handed over the treasures she had collected to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu glanced over and found that his spoils included two medium-grade Spirit Stones, seven low-grade Spirit Stones, four low-grade magic artifacts, six Golden Light Talisms, seven Featherweight Talisms, and Wu Jinlang's high-grade Azure Wave Sword.

As for Zhao Yu's Bronze Awl and the spirit shield summoned by Wu Jinlang, both had been scrapped, losing their Spirituality and becoming worthless.

Zhao Yu collected the spoils and continued moving outward.

In front of a large residence on Yellow Gift Alley.

Zhao Yu said, "Daoist He, it's Zhao Yu! Please open the door and let me in, I need to take shelter!"

It was already deep into the night, and outside the market, there were demonic beasts out hunting for prey and evil spirits that were even more active in the darkness. Compared to outside, the market was still much safer.

The door opened, and there stood He Fangfang, dressed in light gauze, a large expanse of her fair skin exposed, looking seductive and charming. She looked at Zhao Yu with a smirk that was not quite a smile, "Isn't this our great talisman master, Zhao Yu? What brings you to my door so late at night? Could it be that you've come to take care of my business?"

Zhao Yu said, "Let me hide out here for the night, five spirit stones!"

He Fangfang's eyes lit up, and she smiled coquettishly, pulling the door wide open, "Please come in~!"

Zhao Yu, holding Li Xianjiao's small hand, entered the room.

Zhao Yu said, "Daoist He, do you know why those guys attacked the Cangling Sect's station? Have they gone mad?"

"I happen to know a thing or two about that!"

He Fangfang picked up a cup of clear tea, took a sip with a bewitching smile, and then quietly watched Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu took out a low-grade spirit stone and handed it over.

He Fangfang chuckled lightly, "The Yin Ghost Sect has invaded the Northern Wastes! The four great sects have joined forces to resist the Yin Ghost Sect. The Cangling Sect is calling in experts from all over to fight the Yin Ghost Sect, so how can they care about the Little Black Mountain Market?"

Zhao Yu nodded slightly.

Little Black Mountain Market was the only human market within the Canglong Mountain Range, located within the border of Cang Country, and its resources were far more abundant than those found in the inland of Cang Country.

It also attracted quite a number of cultivators at the Great Circle of Qi Refining who were eager for an opportunity to establish their foundation, and they didn't hesitate to take action the moment they saw a chance.

After chatting for a bit more, Zhao Yu arranged for Li Xianjiao to bathe and rest, then went to sit on a lush, large tree outside He's small courtyard to stay alert.

An hour later.

"Su Bingyun?"

Zhao Yu suddenly stood up, executed a technique to conceal his presence, and looked towards the northwest. There, he saw Su Bingyun fleeing in his direction, with a young male disciple of the Cangling Sect, tall and handsome with the cultivation level of the Seventh Level of Qi Refining, in hot pursuit behind her.

"Senior sister, you've been hit by my Bone-Eroding Black Water Nail; you'll only grow weaker. There's no escaping the market! You might as well surrender. If you come with me, I'll take good care of you! If you keep resisting and I become unhappy, just think—once I get tired of playing with you, I'll sell you to the lowest brothel."

"Senior sister, you wouldn't want the esteemed big sister of the Cangling Sect to fall from grace to become a lowly prostitute trampled by the masses, would you?"

The tall Cangling Sect male disciple had a vicious smile on his face as he drove an intermediate-grade magic sword, dark as lacquer, straight towards Su Bingyun.

"Ren Peiming, you beast! You've betrayed the Cangling Sect and sold out your fellow disciples! I will never let you off!"

Su Bingyun's face was pale, with a dark aura faintly visible on her forehead. She wielded an upper-grade blue magic sword, barely fending off the attacks of Ren Peiming.

Excitement flickered in Ren Peiming's eyes as he said, "So what if I betray the Cangling Sect? If I stay with the Cangling Sect, I would never have the opportunity to establish my foundation! The Foundation Establishment Pills will only land in the hands of talents like you! As soon as I take your Foundation Establishment Pill and succeed in foundation establishment, the world is mine to roam freely!

Senior sister, you will also become my woman!"
