My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences - Chapter 447

447 Heaven’s Favorite!
The warriors defending the sinkhole weren’t very strong. A group of second or third-level bone pattern realm experts could merely be considered the backbone of the sects in Qingzhou City. Their sole purpose of being there was to relay information and gather intelligence. In essence, they were nothing more than cannon fodder.

However, Qin Huai was taken aback as he thought, “I didn’t anticipate obtaining the Kun Peng Seed Fragments by slaying these weak people who carry the bloodline of the ancient demon Kun Peng.” He had previously assumed that he could only obtain the Kun Peng fragment from an expert at Tang Xinglong’s level.

Even though Qin Huai had swiftly eliminated more than twenty people and acquired only four Kun Peng fragments, it was still an unexpected boon. The drop rate was nearly twenty percent, which was already worthwhile for the ancient demon Kun Peng.
In his dantian world, there was only a faint gray seed drifting around, with no signs of power or aura leaking out. Yet, Qin Huai knew that the power symbolized by the name Kun Peng was certainly not any weaker than the dragon skeleton beneath the Nine Dragons sect.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

!!
Outside the sinkhole, several strands of colorful smoke had already erupted into the sky. Qin Huai took a step forward, using a blend of the wind breath technique and the ancient azure illusion scripture. The shapeless illusion was blown away by the wind.

In an instant, Qin Huai had spanned several hundred meters. As he unleashed the poison king technique, his fists flew simultaneously, instantaneously wiping out the experts guarding the bronze sinkhole’s perimeter.

“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x1], [Kun Peng Seed (10/2,000)]!”

“Ding! You have collected a [Kun Peng Seed (Fragment) x1], [Kun Peng Seed (11/2,000)]!”

Qin Huai quickly walked out of the bronze sinkhole. On the ground, reinforcements were already rushing towards the area, presumably the nearby stationed Qingzhou guards.

However, Qin Huai had no intention of confronting this group of Qingzhou guards. The Emperor of Qingzhou only had one last opportunity to strike, and it had to be used wisely to bait a formidable foe.

Although the emperor assured him that he could bring him back to the grand array from anywhere within the Qingzhou radius, an attack could only be launched within the bronze sinkhole. Therefore, Qin Huai had to lure the big fish back to the bronze sinkhole.

Besides, Qin Huai was also looking to find a suitable guardian spirit item in Qingzhou to safeguard and unlock the subsequent organ manors. He planned to use the dragon bones hidden at the Nine Dragons sect as his guardian spirit item, with the bronze mountain and river diagram already assigned to the liver.

The wind breath technique had temporarily classified Qin Huai as the fragment of the potential Kun Peng seed. However, suitable matches for the remaining blood heart technique, the four-directional tiger-wolf technique, and even the divine power book of a thousand creations had yet to be found.

Now, what Qin Huai wanted to do was enter the city! He removed his clothes, put on fresh ones, donned a bamboo hat, and quickly made his way toward the outer city of Qingzhou. As there were no city walls in the outer city, he met no resistance upon entering.

Qingzhou City was the same as when he had left it a year ago. However, the status of the four gangs in the outer city had completely changed.

…

The master of the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary, Fan Ziyu, welcomed Qin Huai with a warm smile and even prepared a pot of tea for him.

“You’ve been away for a year, Mr. Long. You may not know that there have been major changes in the outer city,” Fan Ziyu commented with a sigh.

“First, the Lin Gang was annihilated. Last month, the leader of the Blood Poison Gang and a group of elites entered the bronze sinkhole and disappeared without a trace. All because of…that…”

“Demon of Qingzhou!” The shopkeeper, who was serving them, interjected.

“Watch your words!” Fan Ziyu admonished seriously. “Get back to your work.”

“Right away.” The shopkeeper quickly bowed his head and left.

“Presently, the Blood Poison Gang has been overtaken by the Thunderbolt Gang. All their possessions were seized, and it is said that a lot of people from the slums were imprisoned as medicinal apprentices. The number exceeds a thousand! Even prominent figures in the inner city are shocked by this,” Fan Ziyu added.

“Is that so? It’s a good thing that the Blood Poison Gang has been destroyed,” Qin Huai responded, his expression unchanging. He considered the extermination of the Blood Poison Gang a fulfillment of his wish.

“What about the demon? I was traveling out of town to avoid the disaster brought by the demon,” Qin Huai confessed.

“The grand honored guest of the prefecture overseer personally killed the great demon. Just ten days ago, the southern part of the outer city collapsed,” Fan Ziyu responded, sighing profoundly.

“That’s a relief.” Qin Huai nodded. “I would like to purchase some medicinal herbs from you.”

“Absolutely! You just name them!” Fan Ziyu replied cheerfully, patting his chest.

Qin Huai then proceeded to list a series of rare medicinal herbs, including a three-hundred-year-old demonic snake flower, five-hundred-year-old snake scorpion grass, a seven-petaled ice mountain lotus, and bone powder of the bone pattern realm mountain bull. Upon hearing this, both Fan Ziyu and the shopkeeper were left speechless.

“You know how to refine pills?” they asked.

“I’m not familiar with pill refining, but I do have some proficiency with medicinal skills,” Qin Huai admitted. “You have these medicinal ingredients, right?”

“Certainly! Our Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary is unrivaled in the entire outer city. Even within the inner city, there are few who can compete with us,” Fan Ziyu assured him confidently. “Please wait here while I prepare your order.”

Before long, Fan Ziyu returned with the medicinal herbs for Qin Huai.

“I’m thankful for your assistance today,” Qin Huai said, standing up to leave and cupping his fists in gratitude.

“Take care, Mr. Long!” Fan Ziyu called out as he escorted Qin Huai to the door, watching until Qin Huai’s figure disappeared at the end of the road.

Turning back, Fan Ziyu returned to the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary.

“Pavilion Master! Pavilion Master!” The shopkeeper, after speaking with a few new customers, came rushing out in panic.
