The Sect Leader Summons

Chapter 36: The Sect Leader Summons

"One hundred Spirit Stones? Why don't you just rob me? No way, five Spirit Stones at most," Shi Yue shook his head and bargained.

"Five Spirit Stones? Are my things that cheap? You can't even buy a cultivation technique from a bookstore for less than fifty Spirit Stones. You want the cultivation method for a Body Forging Art for five Spirit Stones? Shi kid, have you no shame?" Xiaoyaozi's voice was filled with mockery.

"No," Shi Yue shook his head and said with a serious expression.

"You... forget it. Five Spirit Stones is too little. It should be at least fifty! If that's not possible, thirty Spirit Stones would be fine too!" Xiaoyaozi bargained.

"No, it's five Spirit Stones," Shi Yue shook his head, unmoved.

"Ten. Ten Spirit Stones. If you're not willing, then forget it. The Bone Forging Art is, after all, an introductory technique from an ancient major Body Forging sect. If you're not even willing to give ten Spirit Stones, then forget it." Xiaoyaozi's voice held some dissatisfaction.

Hearing this, Shi Yue frowned. He pondered for a moment and said, "Alright! Ten it is. Same old rules, you tell me the cultivation method first. If there are no problems, I'll give you the ten Spirit Stones."

"Fine! Remember, I'll only say it once. The cultivation method for the Bone Forging Art is..."

Not long after, Xiaoyaozi's voice stopped.

"Cultivating this Bone Forging Art requires over a dozen Spirit Herbs that are decades old? This cultivation method is too extravagant!" Shi Yue said with some surprise after hearing Xiaoyaozi's explanation.

"What do you know? These Spirit Herbs have the effect of cleansing the meridians and purifying the marrow, which helps in cultivating the Bone Forging Art. Without the aid of these Spirit Herbs, your cultivation of the Bone Forging Art would be agonizing," Xiaoyaozi's voice was filled with disdain.

"Just gathering one dose of the medicinal ingredients costs one hundred Spirit Stones. If I want to cultivate this Bone Forging Art, I'll need at least dozens of doses of medicinal ingredients. Where would I get so many Spirit Stones? Aren't you deceiving me?" Shi Yue said with some dissatisfaction.

According to Xiaoyaozi's description, cultivating the Bone Forging Art required soaking in a spiritual liquid made from over a dozen Spirit Herbs. Gathering one dose of medicinal ingredients cost one hundred Spirit Stones. To cultivate this technique, one needed to soak dozens of times. In other words, cultivating this technique would cost Shi Yue thousands of Spirit Stones. It was truly too extravagant.

"Hmph, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I'm not deceiving you. If you cultivate this technique successfully, urinating a hundred times an hour won't be a problem, and there will be no side effects. Of course, you can also go back on your word and not give me the ten Spirit Stones, but don't expect me to help you again," Xiaoyaozi snorted coldly.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yue's expression flickered with uncertainty. He still took out ten Spirit Stones and tossed them into the stone house.

"That's more like it! If you need anything next time, remember to find me. The price is negotiable," Xiaoyaozi's voice was filled with joy.

This incident served as a reminder to Shi Yue. When dealing with Xiaoyaozi, he had to be extremely vigilant and cautious, otherwise, he would easily fall into Xiaoyaozi's trap.

According to Shi Yue's estimation, cultivating the Bone Forging Art would require thousands of Spirit Stones to purchase Spirit Herbs, not to mention the vast amount of time. It would take at least half a year to a year to cultivate the Bone Forging Art. With that much time, he might as well urinate a few more times.

Shi Yue took out paper and a brush, wrote down the cultivation method for the Bone Forging Art, and put it into his storage bag. This was something he had bought for ten Spirit Stones, so he couldn't just discard it.

Shi Yue stayed in the Palm Heaven Space for an entire night, only emerging from it the next morning.

After a night of effort, Shi Yue had accumulated dozens of pounds of urine. When mixed with clear water, it became over a hundred pounds.

"Alas, I truly regret not having enough urine when I need it," Shi Yue lamented inwardly.

When Shi Yue pushed open the courtyard gate, over a dozen fellow disciples swarmed him, shouting in a clamor:

"Junior Brother Shi, I'll give you ten Spirit Stones. I hope you can help me manage my Spirit Herbs."

"Junior Brother Shi, if you don't help, my three mu of Spirit Grain will die off. I'll give you twelve Spirit Stones."

"I'll give you fifteen Spirit Stones, Junior Brother Shi, please come and check my Spirit Field! My five mu of Spirit Beans are all dying."

Hearing these words, Shi Yue neither refused nor agreed. He was waiting for the highest bidder.

"Such a commotion, what kind of conduct is this? Anyone who didn't know would think this was a mortal market!" A man's voice filled with authority suddenly came from the sky.

Everyone's heart leaped, and they looked up at the sky. They saw a giant eagle, about two zhang in size, descending from the heavens.

The giant eagle was covered in green feathers and had two heads. A stern-faced man in blue robes sat on its back.

"It's Martial Uncle Li from the Deacon Hall," someone recognized the identity of the man in blue robes.

Shi Yue was no stranger to the man in blue robes, as he was the highest-ranking individual in the entire Deacon Hall.

Soon, the green giant eagle landed on the ground. The man in blue robes remained seated on its back.

"Disciple greets Martial Uncle Li," Shi Yue and the others quickly bowed in unison.

"Hmm, who is Shi Yue?" The man in blue robes nodded, his stern gaze quickly sweeping over the disciples, and he asked faintly.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Shi Yue.

Seeing this, Shi Yue dared not delay. He quickly stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Replying to Martial Uncle Li, this disciple is indeed Shi Yue."

"Hmm, come with me. Martial Uncle Sect Leader has something to ask you," the man in blue robes said after carefully observing Shi Yue.

"Martial Ancestor Sect Leader?" Shi Yue was shocked. He didn't understand why the Martial Ancestor Sect Leader was looking for him. Although he was puzzled, he still agreed.

Shi Yue patted the storage bag at his waist, and a leaf-shaped Magic Tool flew out, hovering about a foot off the ground.

"Wait, your low-grade flying Magic Tool is too slow. Get on my Green Feather Eagle! Don't keep Martial Uncle Sect Leader waiting," before Shi Yue could jump onto the Leaf Magic Tool, the man in blue robes stopped him.

"Disciple obeys," Shi Yue naturally wouldn't dare to refuse. He put away the Leaf Magic Tool and climbed onto the back of the Green Feather Eagle.

"Let's go." As the man in blue robes finished speaking, the Green Feather Eagle spread its wings and carried the two of them into the sky. Before long, they disappeared into the horizon.

The Green Feather Eagle's speed was extremely fast. Shi Yue looked down and only saw a blur.

After a short while, the Green Feather Eagle landed on a spacious bluestone platform.

In front of the bluestone platform was a stone staircase tens of zhang long. At the top of the staircase stood a black palace over a dozen zhang high.

A silver plaque hung above the entrance of the black palace, inscribed with the three golden characters "Ancestral Master Hall," which glittered and attracted attention under the sunlight.
