The Ultimate Playboy Novel - Chapter 1554
Chapter 1554 Pill City
After Qin Feng put away Qi Hou’s storage ring, he went to check on Zhuo Xiaoyue’s condition. This woman had reminded him to leave many times before. She was a kind-hearted woman.
At this moment, Zhuo Xiaoyue was lying in a large pit with many wounds on her body. Her black robe was tattered and tattered, revealing large patches of snow-white skin. Although this woman’s appearance was ordinary, her figure was exceptionally hot, causing Qin Feng’s stomach to burst into a fiery flame.
“Cough cough … Ah, you, what are you doing?”
Zhuo Xiaoyue suddenly woke up. After coughing a few times, she subconsciously covered her chest and moved backwards.
Qin Feng withdrew his scorching gaze and said, “Don’t be afraid. I have no ill intentions towards you.”
Zhuo Xiaoyue quickly calmed down. She immediately looked into her right hand and saw that the Golden Leaf Grass was still there. Her suspended heart immediately relaxed.
However, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she hurriedly shouted nervously, “Ah … Young Hero, hurry up and leave. That Qi Hou is at the Three Realms of the Saint King, and you are no match for him at all.”
Qin Feng smiled and said, “Qi Hou and those disciples have already died, so you don’t need to worry.”
Zhuo Xiaoyue was stunned and immediately looked behind Qin Feng. Zhuo Xiaoyue couldn’t even see a ghost shadow on the empty space. If it wasn’t for the traces of a fierce battle left behind, Zhuo Xiaoyue even suspected that Qi Hou and the others had never appeared at all.
“You, you killed them?”
Zhuo Xiaoyue knew that she was asking nonsense. At the foot of this desolate mountain, apart from the few of them, no one else would come out. However, she could not accept this fact. Qin Feng was only a Saint King, how could he kill Qi Hou?
Qin Feng did not explain further. He looked at the Golden Leaf Grass in Zhuo Xiaoyue’s hand and said, “You are planning to concoct the Golden Soul Pill by bidding three million yuan for this spirit herb, right?”
Zhuo Xiaoyue’s expression changed drastically as she subconsciously clenched the Golden Leaf Grass in her hand. Her path of cultivation was extremely rough. She did not have a strong clan or sect to support her, so she carefully walked forward alone.
Along the way, she had seen people’s evil greed. Now that Qin Feng had saved his life for no reason, could it be that he wanted his Golden Leaf Grass?
“Young Hero, thank you for saving my life. Zhuo Xiaoyue has no way to repay me. I can’t give you this Golden Leaf Grass …”
Zhuo Xiaoyue stared vigilantly at Qin Feng. She thought that if Qin Feng suddenly tore his face apart, she would also destroy the Golden Leaf Grass and commit suicide.
However, Qin Feng smiled and said, “My name is Qin Feng. You may have misunderstood. I didn’t have any intentions of using the Golden Leaf Grass in your hand. However, you should not be an alchemist. It’s useless to have this spiritual grass.”
Zhuo Xiaoyue did not relax her vigilance because of Qin Feng’s few words. At this time, she had already forced herself to stand up, “Thank you, Young Hero Qin, for reminding me. I know some alchemists.”
Qin Feng could tell that Zhuo Xiaoyue was on guard against him, which made him speechless.
In the eyes of other martial artists, a Golden Leaf Grass was comparable to a precious treasure, but Qin Feng really didn’t care. Right now, he had a close relationship with Luo City’s City Lord Qi Cang and Ma Clan’s Clan Head Ma Xingkong, so it was only a matter of one sentence for him to obtain this Golden Leaf Grass.
Qin Feng did not mention helping Zhuo Xiaoyue refine pills. He knew that speaking out would make the other party even more defensive. However, seeing that this woman was seriously injured, Qin Feng said, “Where are you going? I can give you a ride.”
After all, Zhuo Xiaoyue had only just met Qin Feng, so it was only natural for her to be more vigilant against him. And Zhuo Xiaoyue felt that Qin Feng was not a bad person in her heart. Moreover, she was seriously injured, so it was very easy for her to be robbed a second time if she walked alone …
After some hesitation, Zhuo Xiaoyue nodded and agreed to follow Qin Feng.
On the way, the two of them chatted more or less.
Qin Feng learned that Zhuo Xiaoyue’s family lived in Pill City. Pill City was a very famous place in Beisha Continent, and it had gathered Beisha Continent’s most powerful pill refining forces.
After traveling for a day, the two of them arrived at Pill City.
Even though it was already dark, the streets of Pill City were still packed with people. Qin Feng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. This Pill City was even more prosperous than Flower City.
“Young Hero Qin, this should be your first time in Pill City … Because pills are an indispensable resource for martial artists to cultivate, Pill City is blooming with flowers. Quite a few rogue cultivators and foreign disciples will come to Pill City to seek breakthrough pills …”
Zhuo Xiaoyue took the initiative to introduce Qin Feng to the history of Pill City and the major powers. Along the way, the relationship between the two of them had gotten closer.
When he heard about Danbao Pavilion, Qin Feng frowned slightly. In Luo City, there was a branch of the Danbao Pavilion. Qin Feng had a grudge against the head of the Luo City branch, Bian Kun, because he had broken both of Bian Xionghu’s legs.
“What’s wrong, Young Hero Qin? You have a grudge with Danbao Pavilion?”
Zhuo Xiaoyue had been through a lot of hardships, so she was definitely a woman who knew how to look at people. When Qin Feng frowned, she saw some problems.
Qin Feng laughed and shook his head without saying anything else.
The two of them had already entered Pill City.
Zhuo Xiaoyue lived in one of the poorest courtyards in the old block. The courtyard was deserted and there was nothing valuable at home. However, both inside and outside the courtyard were tidied up very neatly. It could be seen that this woman was very virtuous.
“Young Hero Qin, sit down first. I’ll go change my clothes.”
This was the first time Zhuo Xiaoyue had brought a man home. Her clothes were tattered and her body was covered in blood, so she ran to the inner room to take a bath.
Qin Feng consciously went to the outer courtyard and sat on a stone chair to start studying the Heaven and Earth Fortune Art. Not long ago, he had learned the first three moves of the Primordial Chaos Seven Blades through the Good Fortune Chapter, and he was very impressed by this supreme cultivation technique.
Through a new study, Qin Feng understood.
This Good Fortune Chapter was mainly focused on enlightenment and good fortune. Qin Feng had witnessed them using the Primordial Chaos Seven Blades in his previous battles with Primordial School disciples. During the battle between the two sides, Qin Feng naturally understood the core essence of the Primordial Chaos Seven Blades. Now, under the guidance of the Good Fortune Chapter, he had quickly comprehended the first three blade techniques.
“Little Pig, this Good Fortune Chapter is simply like writing a wheel eye.” Qin Feng was extremely excited.
Little Pig smiled and said, “Master is right. However, Master has just obtained the Good Fortune Chapter and doesn’t understand the essence of the Good Fortune Chapter very well. When Master truly cultivates the Good Fortune Chapter to perfection, he will be able to comprehend all kinds of cultivation technique manuals and even create his own divine arts. He will also be able to break through the bottleneck in cultivation …”
The more the little pig spoke, the more excited it became. Qin Feng’s face was also filled with excitement.
In the path of cultivation, comprehension was extremely important.
Many martial artists were stuck in the same realm because of their lack of comprehension, making it difficult for them to break through for the rest of their lives. And this kind of thing could not be seen or touched, and there was no substantial way to improve it. But now that Qin Feng had cultivated the Good Fortune Chapter, his perception would not increase.
Qin Feng put away his mood and began to examine the fourth stance of the Primordial Chaos Seven Blades.
Actually, this Saber Technique Secret Scripture only truly displayed its power when it reached the fourth stance. Not everyone could withstand the powerful might of that saber strike that triggered the collapse of thunder.
“Lightning is drawn to the sky. Those who draw lightning need to fuse with the sky first …”
The fourth form of the Heart Art was even more profound. If it was Qin Feng from before, it would definitely be difficult for him to comprehend it. However, ever since he received the Good Fortune Chapter, he felt a flash of uncertain thoughts in his mind. When Qin Feng jumped up and landed on the ground, the sky changed drastically. The blade clouds above his head instantly condensed, and more than a dozen lightning bolts the size of toothpicks landed in the courtyard.
Crackle!
The power of thunder and lightning wasn’t strong, and the sound of thunder was somewhat subtle.
The green stones in the courtyard weren’t even broken, which was enough to show that the lightning bolt Qin Feng used was completely harmless.
However, Qin Feng was pleasantly surprised!
In the end, he managed to successfully chop out the fourth form of the Primordial Chaos Seven Blades, Lightning Collapse, and this was his first time using it. As for the power, it was not as satisfying as others. He only needed to practice more and sooner or later, he would be able to fully display the might of this saber strike.
“Ah … Young Hero Qin, what happened just now?”
Zhuo Xiaoyue ran out of the room. She had already changed into a long white dress and her hair was wet on her shoulders. Obviously, she was frightened by the noise outside before rushing over.
Qin Feng’s gaze fell on this woman. Although Zhuo Xiaoyue’s appearance was average, her figure was strangely plump. Even though it was a loose dress, it was still somewhat tensed up by her body.
“Young Hero Qin, what’s wrong with you?”
Being stared at by Qin Feng, Zhuo Xiaoyue felt a little flustered, and her face immediately turned red.
Qin Feng hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said awkwardly, “Hehe! Sister Yue, I’m really sorry. I was practicing martial arts just now and accidentally scared you.”
Zhuo Xiaoyue relaxed and said, “Young Hero Qin, since this is your first time in Pill City, let me show you around. It just so happens that I need someone to help me refine the Golden Soul Pill.”
Qin Feng was interested in Pill City Man, so he followed Zhuo Xiaoyue out of the house.
Even at night, the streets and alleys of Pill City were bustling with activity. As expected of Beisha Continent’s number one pill city, there was a pill shop every hundred meters.
“Young Hero Qin, Pill City has gathered almost all of Beisha Continent’s pill shops. If you need a breakthrough pill, you can buy it directly from Pill City. If you can’t buy it in Pill City, you can’t buy it anywhere else in Beisha Continent …”
“Pill City has four of the strongest pill factories. Square Building, Danbao Pavilion, the Spirit Pill Society, the Immortal Herb Sect … Square Building is the leader of the four pill factories, Beisha Continent’s number one pill sect. Rumor has it that there is a First Grade Eighth Grade pill immortal guarding it …”
As Zhuo Xiaoyue walked, she introduced the situation of Pill City to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng knew that in Empyrean Mainland, alchemists were divided into six grades. From the beginning, he was an entry-level pill refiner, a spirit pill refiner, Golden Core Master, a pill king, a pill immortal, and a peak pill god. However, this was the first time he had heard that there were subdivisions in every major level.
Zhuo Xiaoyue looked at Qin Feng in surprise. As a cultivator in Empyrean Mainland, since Qin Feng didn’t even know the breakdown of the ranks of alchemists?
However, she did not pay much attention to it and patiently explained, “Each major level of alchemist is divided into nine levels. For example, from a First Grade Pill King to a Ninth Grade Pill King, there are too many types of Seventh Grade King Pills. Some alchemists can only refine one or two of them, while others can refine all of them …”
After a brief introduction, Qin Feng understood in his heart.
At the same time, he made a general assessment of his current level of pill refining. He was able to refine half of the Seventh Grade King Pills, roughly equivalent to the strength of a Third Grade or Fourth Grade Pill King.
Qin Feng thought back to what Zhuo Xiaoyue said just now. It was said that there was a First Grade Eighth Grade Pill Immortal guarding Square Building, which shocked Qin Feng.
“Here we are!”
Zhuo Xiaoyue suddenly stopped. Qin Feng raised his head and saw that this woman was actually looking for someone to help her refine pills in Danbao Pavilion.
