The hazy night draped the Endless Sea in a dark cloak!

At this moment, the Endless Sea, which should have been completely silent, was brightly lit in one place, like a bright pearl in the Endless Sea.

From far to near.

Upon closer inspection, the street was bustling with people, a truly lively scene.

There was none of the chill of night; it was as if it were daytime.

This is a transcendent cultivator.

Even if black and white are reversed, it's not a problem for cultivators!

In this Immortal City, in a certain Spirit Pill shop.

A portly middle-aged shopkeeper was harshly reprimanding a thin-faced young man.

"Yu Xiaoer, is this how you serve me, the manager?!"

"You've been working at the alchemy shop for several years now. Is it really that difficult for you to acquire a few Pill Formula?"

"It's not like we're getting something for nothing; we're not giving Spirit Stone."

I'm worried about your abilities!

In the end, he couldn't help but sigh, and then said:

"If you don't receive the Pill Formula this month, you don't need to come anymore!"

Then, disheartened, he turned and left.

Yu Xiaoer, who had been standing with his head bowed, only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw the large figure disappear from sight, and murmured:

"Are the Pill Formula so easy to obtain?"

"The common Pill Formula on the market are readily available in shops, and as for exclusive Pill Formula, those are unique Pill Formula created by individual Alchemist; how could they possibly be sold?"

"As for improving Pill Formula, which one wasn't developed by Alchemist through countless experiments, wasting countless spiritual resources, and expending countless efforts? There's no need to even think about it!"

The thought of the other person's face filled him with nausea.

The main reason why the other party was making things so difficult for him was that the success rate of Alchemist in the pill shop was too low, and there was no profit to be made!

This enraged the employer.

However, the shopkeeper dared not offend the Alchemist, so he came up with a crooked idea: to add unique Spirit Pill in order to win by surprise.

However, the alchemy shop did not have such a Pill Formula, so this purchase was motivated by a desire to acquire the Pill Formula.

Secondly, it was because the shopkeeper's cousin had been expelled from the Immortal Alliance Academy. He didn't have any Immortal Arts, his strength was lacking, and he had no way to make a living.

The shopkeeper then made things difficult for him, trying to get him to pack up and leave so that his cousin could have a place.

He had heard about this before.

He had always been diligent and conscientious, and he never expected that he would be chosen for this position; it was truly beyond his expectations!

Thinking of the cunning old fox that the shopkeeper was, he wouldn't suffer losses on either side.

If he couldn't acquire the Pill Formula, he could use himself as a scapegoat to appease the owner, and his cousin could naturally enter the shop.

There's no need to offend the Alchemist either.

If the Pill Formula is acquired, all the credit should rightfully go to him.

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but feel anxious about his future fate!

If only I hadn't hastily experimented with Immortal Arts- Talismanship in the academy and given up after failing to develop the talent, I should have sold everything I owned to try all the Immortal Arts.

Perhaps I possess the talent for one of these Immortal Arts, and now perhaps I can also possess an Immortal Arts to aid me.

We wouldn't have to face the current situation where we have to be subservient to others.

Thinking of his fellow students who possessed Immortal Arts and are now living happy and stable lives, he felt increasingly regretful.

One wrong step can lead to eternal regret; by the time you look back, a hundred years have passed!

Immediately.

Yu Xiaoer sighed softly. Faced with this situation, he had no choice but to bow to life's hardships.

Even if there's only a tiny chance, he's willing to give it a try; a stable job isn't easy to find these days.

otherwise.

The shopkeeper doesn't need to go to such lengths.

Then, he pulled out a stack of notices that he had written earlier from the table, tucked them under his arm, and walked out.

Arriving at the shop's entrance, I pulled out a notice and pasted it on the shop's exterior wall.

Along the street, they posted the written notices on various bulletin boards.

Looking at most of the notices seeking to purchase Pill Formula, the prices for most of them were higher than those offered in the shops.

See here.

Yu Xiaoer felt increasingly hopeless. Even if someone was selling the Pill Formula, there was no way he could buy it based on the price offered by the shop.

His fate of being kicked out was almost predetermined.

Immediately, he changed his mind and made a decision. He tore down all the notices he had just posted, then returned to his residence, took out a brush, dipped it in ink, and began to write again.

After a long while.

Yu Xiaoer stopped what he was doing, and then he glanced at the notice on the table with satisfaction.

His inner energy surged, and a surge of magical power emanated from his palm.

A short while later.

That stack of notices, let them dry completely!

Then Yu Xiaoer, carrying the notice, walked outside.

The newly written notice was posted on the notice board in a prominent place in the Immortal City!

Then they were posted again in the streets and alleys.

·····

Leave Xuanli City.

Following the direction Telepathic Link, Cheng Buzheng flew straight towards the location of the three puppets.

A Black and White Flowing Spirit Light flashed across the vast sea!

Not long after.

The beam of light suddenly shifted and landed on the huge Qiao Rock.

The Qiao Rock Qiao Rock was nothing unusual in the vast, Endless Sea, but at this moment, there were three figures on it.

A young man, a middle-aged man, and an elderly man—each possesses a unique temperament.

Sharp.

majesty.

Peaceful.

As the light dissipated, Cheng Buzheng appeared before the three cultivators. He then waved his hand, putting away the three puppets.

Immediately.

Cheng Buzheng a thought, a huge, Exotic Beast appeared beside him.

He sat cross-legged on the back of the Thunder Roar Beast, communicating with the Little Roar in his mind and pointing out the direction.

Little Roar, who hadn't been out and about for a long time, seemed very excited.

After letting out a long roar to the sky and venting its anger, it spread its enormous wings and began to flap them.

A faint glow emanated from the wings covered in tiny scales.

At the same time, as Little Roar flapped its wings, Little Roar quickly formed beneath them!

A streak of purple light rose from the Qiao Rock and shot into the distance.

Cheng Buzheng sat cross-legged on Little Roar's back and realized how wonderful it was to travel without expending magic power. Even if he encountered unexpected situations, he could face them calmly with enough magic power in his dantian!

He sighed softly as he leisurely admired the scenery along the way.

Although the sea view remained unchanged, he still felt a sense of ease and freedom.

This is probably why we won't be stuck on this small island anymore!

Little Roar several days of continuous travel, Xiaohou's initial excitement quickly faded away!

Similarly, its speed also slowed down.

But Cheng Buzheng didn't urge them, since a few more days wouldn't make a difference.

This is also a good opportunity to train Little Roar's patience, which will benefit its future growth!
