Wiping Out Households Was Still the Fastest Way to Make Money

In the Painting Scroll World, Chen Feng appeared in the secret chamber of the Xingfeng Sect.

After powering on the sensors and particle monitoring instruments, he turned on the switch.

Almost as soon as it was turned on, the waveform on the particle monitoring instrument next to the sensor showed strong fluctuations.

Chen Feng understood that this was not a change caused by detecting the Spiritual Qi in the surrounding environment.

Rather, it was because the sensors detected the Spiritual Qi within his body.

Following the method Lin Wei had taught him, Chen Feng began adjusting the sensor.

The sensor's sensitivity is adjustable.

This includes environmental monitoring, object monitoring, and comprehensive monitoring.

The comprehensive monitoring means that any Spiritual Qi being or object that approaches the sensor will cause a fluctuation.

Chen Feng adjusted the sensor to environmental monitoring.

Environmental monitoring can only detect the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the air.

Soon, the fluctuation pattern on the particle monitor changed; the previously intense fluctuations suddenly became calmer.

Only subtle waveform fluctuations appeared.

"The Spiritual Qi in the Hengduan Mountain is indeed scarce." This result was within Chen Feng's expectations.

He has been cultivating immortality for so long that he has already absorbed almost Spiritual Qi near Hengduan Mountain.

Chen Feng then left the secret room and strolled around the Xingfeng Sect.

Wang Hu and Liu Qian were not inside the gate.

Wang Hu led some inner sect martial artists to the great forest to hunt wild animals and practice their marksmanship.

Liu Qian, on the other hand, went to Liuyang Town to attend a meeting of the three major Lineage.

Chen Feng arrived at the sect's treasure vault alone.

He wanted to conduct an experiment to determine whether the objects within the Painting Scroll World also contained Spiritual Qi.

In Chen Feng's conjecture, the world of the Painting Scroll World possesses Spiritual Qi, and it is very likely that certain plants or animals also contain Spiritual Qi.

If his conjecture is confirmed, he can collect the Spiritual Qi of these objects for cultivation, thus avoiding the need to leave Hengduan Mountain.

Chen Feng took a portion of each of the various herbs, pills, and ores from the treasure vault, and then returned to the secret chamber.

He took out a medicinal herb, placed it on the sensor, and activated the item monitoring function.

After waiting for a while, the particle monitor next to the sensor did not react at all.

"No Spiritual Qi!" Chen Feng sighed; this result was within his expectations.

Spiritual Qi isn't something that just anything has; if it were, cultivators would be everywhere.

How could the entire Yue Kingdom have only one cultivator?

But Chen Feng did not give up; instead, he continued to try.

After trying more than a dozen heavenly materials and earthly treasures from this world, Chen Feng finally discovered a medicinal herb that contained Spiritual Qi.

This is a red medicinal herb. Its leaves are deep red with slightly curled edges and flame-like patterns.

Chen Feng did not recognize what this herb was.

The particle monitor showed that the herb's waveform had very little fluctuation.

Even if it's small, it proves that this thing possesses Spiritual Qi.

Chen Feng then continued to try out other items he had taken from the treasure vault.

After trying everything, only three herbs caused the particle sensor to fluctuate.

Neither the ores nor the pills contained any Spiritual Qi.

But this result already satisfied Chen Feng, at least proving that his conjecture was correct.

Chen Feng immediately stood up and went to the place where the sect refined pills.

The Xingfeng Sect is not what it used to be; it now has several Alchemist within its ranks.

These Alchemist were all selected and sent from Wang Tian and Qin Yao's sects.

They were specifically responsible for refining cultivation pills for the martial artists of the Xingfeng Sect.

There were five Alchemist in total, all of them elderly men with white hair.

When the group saw Chen Feng arrive, they all bowed in greeting.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

The group of people were all somewhat apprehensive.

They would never normally meet someone of Chen Feng's caliber.

However, they had seen Chen Feng's portrait before, so they recognized Chen Feng at a glance.

"Help me identify these three things," Chen Feng said, placing three medicinal herbs in front of the group.

Several Alchemist immediately went up to examine it carefully.

Soon, one of the Alchemist picked up the red herb and said:

"Sect Master, this is Flame Grass, which should be around two hundred years old. It is a raw material needed to refine the Xiantian -level Blazing Flame Pill. Taking the Blazing Flame Pill and using special Cultivation Method can give the internal Gang Qi a high-temperature effect. It is generally only used by martial artists in the Late Xiantian."

"No need for such detailed explanations, just tell me the names of the other two herbs and their prices."

Chen Feng didn't want to hear about the uses of these herbs; he just wanted to know how much they cost.

The Alchemist nodded quickly and then said:

"These other two herbs are the Crimson Spirit Root and the Three Black Grass, both around two hundred years old. If we're talking about price, each one is worth about ten thousand taels of silver. Herbs of the Xiantian level, combined with their age, are quite expensive."

Upon hearing the price, Chen Feng frowned.

It takes ten thousand taels of silver to buy just one plant; even the entire Xingfeng Sect wouldn't be able to buy much of it now.

Moreover, according to these Alchemist, such heavenly materials and earthly treasures are extremely rare.

Thank you.

Chen Feng said something and then left.

The Alchemist stood respectfully in place, watching Chen Feng leave.

After Chen Feng left, an Alchemist exclaimed in surprise:

"I never expected the sect leader to be so approachable."

Another Alchemist said with a smile:

"I've heard that the sect leader has always been like this. Although he rarely appears within the sect, many martial artists within the sect hold him in high esteem."

Several Alchemist began chatting about the rumors surrounding Chen Feng.

Meanwhile, Chen Feng returned to the sect's treasury and took a brief look around.

The three medicinal herbs in his hand were among the few dozen in the entire Xingfeng Sect, and they were all obtained from the Jiang Household.

"Too little."

Chen Feng planned to wait for Liu Qian to return and then have Liu Qian purchase a batch of goods.

However, this price is indeed a bit expensive.

At this moment, Chen Feng once again reminisced about the wealth he had gained from destroying the Jiang Household.

Relying solely on buying and selling is too slow a way to accumulate wealth.

Only by wiping out an entire clan and confiscating their property can one make money quickly.

Without further thought, Chen Feng returned to his secret chamber and began cultivating.

Now all we can do is wait for Lin Wei to develop the Spiritual Qi collection device, and then see if we can collect the Spiritual Qi from these herbs.

Liuyang Town.

Liuyang Town was unusually lively today, with many martial artists from outside the town appearing in the town.

Today is the day that the three major Lineage of Liuyang Town are convening a meeting with the surrounding martial arts forces to discuss matters.

After the imperial decree reached Liuyang Town, the people of Liuyang Town were plunged into panic.

After all, once Ningguo's 100,000-strong army enters Yue Kingdom territory, Liuyang Town will be the first to suffer.

In wars between two countries, massacres of entire cities are a common occurrence.

Liu Qian led a group of martial artists from the Xingfeng Sect to the gate of the Mo family in Liuyang Town.

He is representing Xingfeng Sect at this meeting.

In addition to dozens of outer sect martial artists, Liu Qian also brought ten inner sect martial artists from the Xingfeng Sect this time.

These inner sect martial artists were all carrying submachine guns and hand grenades.

These ten inner sect martial artists were specially dispatched by Wang Hu to protect his safety.
