The ferry flew in the air for a full month.

We've finally arrived at the colossal coastal city: Hundred Rivers City!

Ye Jing has not left the ferry since he Demon Slaying Mountain.

I've been reading on the ferry.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go out and seek fortuitous opportunity, but rather that the world had become even more chaotic.

After that day, the Devil Race seemed to have gone mad, and their three armies suddenly launched a fierce attack!

This caught the Heavenly Court and the Demon Extermination Alliance's Garrison Army off guard, causing them to suffer repeated defeats.

The Demon Race Eastern Advance Army has even reached the border, and it won't be long before they enter the Eastern Domain!

This terrified everyone in the Profound Yellow Great World, and those who originally lived on the border or near the border began to migrate long ago.

I hope to stay away from the Devil Race.

This actually puzzled Ye Jing greatly.

It's understandable that the strength of the Taixu Profound Realm) is not as great as that of the Devil Race.

However, since the Heavenly Court is the ruler of the three thousand worlds, the Devil Race should, in principle, also be a world under the Heavenly Court's jurisdiction.

The Heavenly Court has ruled since ancient times, and there have been almost no major incidents.

They also kept plundering various resources.

Their overall strength should be getting stronger and stronger, and dealing with the Devil Race should be a piece of cake.

Furthermore, so far, there has been no news of the Heavenly Court dispatching any powerful forces.

Apart from the Heavenly Soldier Heavenly General, none of the high-level combatants like Erlang Shen made a move.

Something feels off here.

This war should end as soon as possible, but the Heavenly Court seems to be prolonging it!

However, Ye Jing was not a member of the Heavenly Court and was unaware of the intricacies involved.

All I can do is wonder, and then strive to improve myself.

In this chaotic world, we must strive to survive.

Ye Jing sat in a teahouse, watching the bustling crowds outside on the street, and took a sip of tea.

A faint smell of the sea wafted into my nostrils.

He looked somewhat worried.

Because he had no money left!

He used up almost all his Spirit Stone to set up the Great Array!

He currently only has a few Spirit Stone on him, which are essential for survival.

However, he needs a lot of Spirit Stone now because he needs to buy supplies and ships for his voyage.

Searching for islands at sea is also a very time-consuming process.

After all, you can't just pick any island and expect it to be suitable.

He actually wanted to go back to the Land of Spiritual Abandonment first and try to get more Spirit Stone from there.

However, he didn't even have enough Spirit Stone to set up a teleportation array.

He doesn't have the strength of Saint, so if he wants to set up a teleportation array, he would have to consume a large amount of Spirit Stone.

"Sigh, I should have known better than to get so drunk." Ye Jing chugled another mouthful of bitter tea.

"Handsome young man, come and do some work! If you don't have Spirit Stone, then do some work!" The Faceless Woman's voice rang out from the side, but she was nowhere to be seen!

"Work? No way! I'll never work in my life!" Ye Jing refused without hesitation.

You're kidding, he's a God of Heaven and Earth, how could he possibly work for someone else?

Furthermore, the number of Spirit Stone he wants is astronomical; if he were to work for someone else, it would take him forever.

"Hey handsome young man, I've heard there's an unparalleled beauty in Hundred Rivers City, where a hundred rivers converge. If you help me capture her and give me her face, I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion's treasury and get you the Spirit Stone you need for your voyage, how about that?" The Faceless Woman's voice was alluring and very pleasant to listen to.

But why are these words so inappropriate?

Oh, right, she's not even human, she's a female spirit!

Ye Jing mentally complained.

However, he currently doesn't really have any good ways to make money.

I exchanged all the things I could sell for Storage Bag last time.

We can't just sell the Xuanyuan Sword.

Keep the Storage Bag so you can store Spirit Stone in the Land of Spiritual Abandonment later!

"What a worry!"

Ye Jing took another sip of bitter tea.

"Young Master, Young Master!" Suddenly, a thin, dark-skinned girl ran from outside the teahouse to Ye Jing's side.

"I've got an idea!" Qiuyue exclaimed excitedly.

"What method?" Ye Jing asked, puzzled.

"Young Master, don't you know how to refine pills? We can go and sell pills!" Qiuyue's eyes lit up as she looked at Ye Jing and said.

Ye Jing was taken aback, then his eyes lit up.

Oh right, how could he have forgotten about that?

He never revealed his alchemy skills to the outside world, so no one suspected him.

However, ordinary pills are not worth much.

Precious pills are valuable, but the raw materials are also very expensive. With the Spirit Stone I have, I can't even afford the raw materials to refine good pills.

Although at his level of cultivation, he no longer needs something like a medicine cauldron.

However, it would be more convenient if it were available.

He wasn't worried that no one would want the pills he refined.

I am a master of Dao of Alchemy!

Previously, his defective items were highly sought after by a large group of people.

However, to earn Spirit Stone, either the quality of the pills must be extremely high, or the quantity must be extremely large.

The former mentioned that materials are needed, while the latter is a very time-consuming process.

Unless someone provides him with the materials, all he needs to do is refine the pills!

"Qiuyue, go and find out where the Pill Pavilion is in Hundred Rivers City. I want to apply for Alchemist!"

"Yes, young master!" Qiuyue nodded and rushed out again.

The Pill Pavilion typically recruits Alchemist from outside the organization.

Because Alchemist are very scarce, their salaries are extremely high.

It's something ordinary people can't even imagine.

However, for Ye Jing, salary alone is not enough.

So he's prepared to take a cut.

Soon, Qiuyue returned.

"Young Master, I've inquired. There are several pill pavilions in Hundred Rivers City, but the largest and most famous one is called Glow Pill Pavilion. It's the largest pill pavilion in Hundred Rivers City, and it is indeed recruiting people right now."

"However, to enter the Pill Pavilion, one must pass its test."

Only Alchemist who pass the test will be hired by the Pill Pavilion!

"But if it's the young master, it will definitely pass."

As Qiuyue spoke, she told Ye Jing all the information she had gathered about the Dan Pavilion in Hundred Rivers City.

Ye Jing's eyes lit up slightly after hearing this. He just needed to hire more people!

"Oh, handsome young man, you can even refine pills?" The Faceless Woman's voice rang out again.

Somewhat surprisingly, this guy knew more than she had expected.

At such a young age, he has already Divine Realm Layer Four.

That's right.

This guy advanced to a higher level during the month he spent on the ferry!

This was the first time she had ever seen someone get promoted so quickly.

Without any opportunities yet.

Furthermore, they possess exceptional comprehension skills.

No matter what kind of Cultivation Method or Divine Ability power it is, you'll understand it after just one look!

They can even quickly learn the Cultivation Method and Divine Ability abilities that they themselves demonstrate.

He's practically a monster! How can he have such high talent?

"Of course, I know a lot of things. Let's go to the Glow Pill Pavilion!" Ye Jing smiled slightly.

"Yes, young master!"

Qiuyue raised her pretty face, feeling proud of her young master!
