Chapter 146 Monk? Is that right?
Startled by the sudden realization, Chen Chunan's expression turned serious.
"I was negligent! Thanks for reminding me!"
Seeing that Chen Chunan had made up his mind, Xin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"You haven't even reached the ninth and fifth position of the Qian hexagram yet, but your mind is already wavering. With your mind unsettled, you risk losing your maiden; be careful not to let all your previous efforts go to waste."
Chen Chunan then realized that Xin Yuan was intentionally giving him pointers.
He felt a chill run down his spine and immediately focused his mind, banishing all distracting thoughts.
Now that I am nourishing my Yang energy, I am gradually approaching the fourth line of the Qian hexagram. I should be courageous and diligent in my progress.
How can we let such a trivial matter shake our resolve?
If one falls into self-doubt, the elixir will be gained and then lost again, and all efforts will be in vain.
After realizing the key point, Chen Chunan broke out in a cold sweat.
But at this moment, he looked at the Mind Monkey with a hint of inquiry in his eyes. He really didn't believe that the Mind Monkey was as simple as he truly was.
If it is truly one's true nature, then one only needs to gather the five elements to conceive a sacred embryo, and then one can directly attain the Dao and become a Celestial Immortal!
Seeing the complex expression on his true form's face, Xin Yuan knew that he was suspicious again. He simply shook his head slightly and then said, "Since you are quite wealthy, why don't you give some to me? I still don't have a solution for my Chainmail Golden Armor. The Dao Sect has offered over a hundred pieces of Heavenly River Sinking Gold Sand in exchange for some fire-type spiritual materials. Give me some of those."
Upon hearing the words "Dao Sect," Chen Chunan's heart stirred. Although he took out a pile of precious materials, he did not immediately hand them over to Xin Yuan.
"We must not clash with that Daoist sect now. I can give you the precious materials, but don't cause me any trouble."
The Monkey King snatched the sword away, saying, "If they don't bother me, fine, but if they do, I won't let it go! Besides, the six-month period is up now. If a conflict really breaks out, I'll help you enter the Realm of True Suchness and kill them all at once!"
Hearing that Xin Yuan didn't seem to care at all, Chen Chunan's heart sank slightly.
...
Chaotian Palace Square
Although it's only the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, people have already set up stalls in the square.
Many people lingered among the stalls, stopping frequently to take a look.
Chen Chunan and the others had different needs, so they did not act together.
Lian Hongxian and Yunling, the two maids, went off to stroll around hand in hand.
Chi Mianxi and Han Yuqiu shared the same goal, and the two women headed excitedly towards the trading area where the Medicine King Sect was located.
"Let's go! The manual says the Medicine King Sect doesn't have many Nascent Soul Pills. We have to hurry, or they'll be gone! This time I'm going to buy a dozen or twenty, and once the Medicine King Sect runs out, I'll set up a stall and make a fortune!"
Although Han Yuqiu was quite wealthy, buying two Nascent Soul Pills still stung a bit.
She knew Chi Mianxi's wealth very well, and when she saw that Chi Mianxi dared to say she would buy a dozen or twenty pills, she couldn't help but ask.
"How much did you borrow from Chen Chunan? Twenty pills is an astronomical price!"
Chi Mianxi smiled smugly: "Chu Nan is the best to me! I originally only wanted to buy two, but after I begged him, he gave me several hundred rare and precious materials. Although the quality varies, it shouldn't be a problem to exchange them for a dozen or so."
Han Yuqiu's eyes looked a little off. The two of them had sensed something was wrong ever since they returned from the East China Sea.
Looking at it today, who would actively lend more money than they need? It seems more like...
However, she didn't care about any of that. Even if the two became husband and wife, they would still be her friends.
However, she felt that Chi Mianxi's idea was somewhat inappropriate.
"While the Nascent Soul Pill is good, buying so many at once might make it difficult to sell. If it's Old Ghost and his group buying from you, you won't be able to sell it at a high price. And if you set up a stall and sell it at a high price, how do you know the Medicine King Sect doesn't have any extra pills?"
"But the manual says that the Medicine King Sect will only release fifty at a time, and once they're gone, that's it. If I buy more, and others can't get them, then they'll have to buy from me, right? I'm poor, I need to earn some money, and I don't want to always have to borrow, and then have to let that scoundrel..."
"What bad guy?"
Chi Mianxi almost let slip, and said in a flustered tone, "No, I didn't say 'bad guy,' you misheard."
"If you don't want to say, that's fine. But I still don't recommend you buy that much. If you do, you'll regret it later."
After saying that, Han Yuqiu stopped worrying about it. She had already given advice, and if things really went wrong, she wouldn't be held responsible.
...
the other side
Chen Chunan rarely went out shopping alone, so he decided to wander around.
His goals differed from others; he had little need for high-end cultivation resources, but rather a great need for low-end resources.
So instead of going to the trading areas where the bulk commodities were located, I went directly to these small stalls below.
The strongest in the clan right now is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Why would they buy a Divine Transformation Pill? They'd have to become immortals themselves before they could even eat it.
At that time, wouldn't it have been simpler to directly convert them into immortals?
He had only been inside for a short while when he heard a commotion not far ahead.
Out of curiosity, I couldn't help but go over.
"The Beast Taming Sect's little princess has been tricked; this is going to be interesting!"
"Yes, selling fake pills is one thing, but they were also poisonous! They knocked out that Spirit Moon Fox, and I heard the little princess was so angry she went crying to her sect leader father!"
"The person who sold those pills is in big trouble! Although the Beast Taming Sect can't compare to the Eight Great Sects, it's not someone to be trifled with."
"Who's so bold? Don't they know the Beast Taming Sect's leader is a doting father? They're in big trouble now!"
As Chen Chunan listened to everyone's gossip, he gained an understanding of the origins and development of the world.
I immediately realized that coming here to buy resources was not a wise move. If I encountered inferior or counterfeit goods, it would harm my people, and that would be a terrible sin.
Just as he was wondering whether he should ask Xiao Yuxian to help him procure the items, a burly man and a beautiful woman, along with a girl whose face was streaked with tears, rode a giant white fox and came toward them menacingly.
"Here he comes! Zhou Jianxiong of the Beast Taming Sect! He's nicknamed 'Human Bear,' I wonder how his delicate wife manages to put up with him."
"You little brat, you're eyeing that beautiful, jade-faced Rakshasa? You've got a death wish?"
"This kid is too green. He doesn't understand the saying 'birds of a feather flock together.'"
As the group whispered among themselves, the beautiful woman on the moon-white fox suddenly spoke up fiercely: "Which heartless bastard who gave birth to a son without an anus did such a despicable thing? Your mother's a prostitute, can't afford to live anymore, you son of a bitch, you even lie to your own child?"
The beautiful woman wasn't satisfied with her tirade, so she kicked her husband, who was standing next to her, flying away.
"Zhou Jianxiong! Are you dead?! Your daughter's been bullied, and you haven't said a word? If I'm not satisfied with how this is handled today, I'll make sure you can't get out of bed for ten days!"
Despite her beautiful face, the woman's words caused all the male cultivators present to lose their composure.
He can even talk about bedroom matters off the top of his head—that's impressive!
After being kicked down, Zhou Jianxiong didn't immediately go looking for trouble with the medicine seller. Instead, he begged his wife for forgiveness.
"Madam, no matter how I handle it, you won't be satisfied. Can we discuss reducing the number of days? How about five days without getting out of bed? I really can't handle any more than that."
"Your mother is a xx..."
The girl covered her face, too ashamed to face anyone. She was filled with regret for telling her mother about being scammed when her mother was also there.
Just as everyone was watching this rare spectacle, the protagonist of the event stood up and bowed.
"Amitabha Buddha~ This humble monk is not selling fake pills nor poisonous pills. Benefactor, your words will bring you trouble."
As soon as the words "Amitabha" were uttered, Chen Chunan could no longer hear the beautiful woman's shrewish shouts and the murmurs of the crowd.
Only one thought occupied my mind: "A monk chanting Amitabha Buddha's name? This can't be right!"
