Chapter 58: Big trouble

But failing to persuade this Medicine Crazy Second Elder, Ye Chuan was unable to immediately return to the Purple Cloud Peak, rather first went with Second Elder to help him examine that quickly withering Dragon Tooth Herb.

Second Elder Nangong Ren was tense. He had spent a lot of silvers, practically using up all his savings, to purchase this Dragon Tooth Herb from underground Ghost Market. So if this herb was to wither and die just like this, then it would really be a great loss, and he would have to cry without tears.

Ye Chuan carefully examined, then stretching out his hand, he grabbed the soil on the ground and pinched it, and then he didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. The reason this herb was withering to death was clearly because Second Elder was too eager, and watered it too much, quickly drowning this medicinal herb. Compared to other medicinal herbs, Dragon Tooth Herb was not that difficult to raise, and it also didn’t need much spiritual qi to nurture, but it has a specific characteristic, i.e. one should pay special attention in watering it. One shouldn’t water it too much.

“Change the surface layer of the soil, afterward, water it only once a month.” Ye Chuan patted off the soil on his hand, then turning around, he left.

“Hey, wait a bit, is that enough?” Second Elder wasn’t at ease, and grabbing the sleeve of Ye Chuan without letting go, he asked without any demeanor of the elder, instead looking like a pitiable old farmer who made living by farming.

“Not so, then what do you think? Water it every day, do you think Dragon Tooth Herb make a soup and drink?”

Ye Chuan shook his head, then swinging his arms, he swaggered off.

Behind, Second Elder was still not at ease, but he was forced to wait and see while half-believing, half doubting.

Returning Purple Cloud Courtyard, Ye Chuan instructed Flame Devil to go and pick several medicinal herbs, then he went to study and sat cross-legged to cultivate.

Just now, the conflict with Yi Suo in the base of the mountain was the sign. With Great Competition coming very soon, Alchemy Hall’s Hall Master Jin Zhikun and backstage Third Elder would definitely not be honest, and will not let him smoothly deal with the challenge of this time.

At the base of the mountain, Ye Chuan had indifferently let Yi Suo show off as if nothing had happened. But after returning to the Purple Cloud Courtyard, he felt heavy pressure. Outside, he had to confront the pressure of Black Cauldron Sect’s Tuoba Xiong and Five Style Sect, and inside the sect, he again had to confront Jin Zhikun and Third Elder, these two old fellows.

“In the final analysis, the cultivation level of this body is far from sufficient ah.”

Ye Chuan muttered in low voice, and quietly cultivated. And while he was breathing, indistinct dragon form air mass stretched out and shrunk repeatedly.

Rank 7 Wuzhe refines blood, was a crucial level of Wuzhe realm, and after breaking through this level, one would separate oneself from the category of ordinary person and becomes a Xiushi, then one can cultivate all kinds of magical techniques. If one was unable to breakthrough this bottleneck, then they would forever be a Wuzhe (martial artist), not a real cultivator.

Carefully calculating, Ye Chuan had stayed in refining blood realm for not a short period of time. Although he didn’t make any breakthrough, but his foundation was increasingly getting sturdier, and the dragon shaped Heaven Swallowing Talisman within his body also condensed more and more, even more gradually resembling a lifelike dragon.

Ye Chuan silently read Yao Refining Heaven Swallowing Technique, silently cultivating inside the study and secretly controlling his rate of progress to proceed in an orderly way and step by step.

He needed to restore his consumed vitality, and he also needed to recover and strengthen his injured spirit. As for cultivation, he needs to proceed step by step, but Ye Chuan didn’t use cultivation techniques to spoil things through excessive enthusiasm. Rank 7 Wuzhe realm to Xiushi realm, this was all-round transformation, so he was preparing properly as well as was also waiting for a suitable opportunity.

When cultivating, time always passed very quickly. When he opened his eyes, one day had already passed.

Early in the next morning, Flame Devil who had gone out to pick medicinal herbs still hadn’t return back, but fatty Zhao Dazhi came uninvited. And after seeing Ye Chuan, he heaved deep sighs and pulled a long face.

“Fatty, what’s wrong, did you run into trouble again?” Ye Chuan asked.

“Yes, Big Senior Apprentice-Brother, I ran into a trouble, big trouble.”

Fatty made a bitter face, and as if a little girl who was molested and had nowhere to readdress an injustice, he miserably looked at Ye Chuan. Seeing this expression, even Ye Chuan who was very experienced felt rather creepy, “Enough, fatty, if you have anything to say, then say quickly, don’t look at other people like that. If a little girl used this kind of expression, then she might be able to provoke sympathy, but you, a fat man, if use such expression, then even the blind person will be scared away. I have never thought that you were so abnormal. Okay, which junior apprentice-sister dumped you again?”

“No, there never was a junior apprentice-sister in the first place, so I have never been dumped. Merely, Big Senior Apprentice-Brother, I……, I have no money.” Fatty said with a distressed expression. For him, getting dumped was nothing, but having no money was a big problem.

In the eyes of the common people, stepping on the flying sword and flying back and forth cultivators were incomparably natural and unrestrained, and they are aloof, refined and unearthly people. But in fact, cultivation was a money-burning business, absolutely inseparable from silvers. To use the cultivation room with dense worldly spiritual qi, they need to spend silvers; Replacement and maintenance of the equipment also needed money; purchasing crystal stones and pills even more needed money. If one didn’t have money, then the ordinary cultivators would be unable to move even a single step!

“Didn’t sect give you salary every month? Now is just the beginning of the month, but you already finished spending them.” Ye Chuan looked at fatty, and said. No wonder this fellow looked abnormal today, could it be that he came early in the morning to borrow money?

“Miss Jiajia robbed me.” Fatty replied.

Ye Chuan was a little surprised, “Why? What kind of shameful matter did you do to her?”

“How could I?”

Fatty inwardly muttered, who is Zhu Sijia? Other than Ye Chuan, this Big Senior Apprentice-Brother, who dares to do shameful matters to her?
