My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

323 Red Qi Tiger Wolf Pills!

“Which pill house has the most complete and most variety of pills in the outer city?”

Thank you readers!

“The most… It’s the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary!” Zhou Cunzhong provided the answer after some thought. Having spent decades in the outer city, he knew all the slightly famous places there.

Qin Huai nodded, remembering the name. Carrying more than two million taels of silver, he was anxious to spend it.

He was determined to acquire the five full patterns. Fortunately, Qingzhou was blessed with abundant resources, which was an opportunity he couldn’t let slip away.

Thump thump thump…

Suddenly, several disciples of the Blood Poison Gang approached from the waterway.

“Fifth Master, Second Brother is not on the boat.”

“You searched carefully?” Zhou Cunzhong frowned. Second Brother had only run for half an incense stick’s time. It was unreasonable for a bone pattern realm expert to be unable to last a few minutes on a woman’s belly.

“I asked the brothel madam, and Second Brother only went around the boat once before leaving.” The disciple was very astute.

“What…”

“Alright, if he’s not here, then so be it. Perhaps he’s busy with something else.” Qin Huai didn’t mind. Recently, that fellow had been constantly up to no good, but he had ignored him.

In his heart, he knew that his ‘Big Brother Yang’ had either gone to Yin Rongen’s worship dock or Mou Jinfu’s. However, the latter was more likely. After all, he and Yin Rongen had no grudges or conflicts of interest.

As for Mou Jinfu… Not only had he snatched away many of his underlings, but he had also taken 300,000 taels of silver every month. Even if he were in Mou Jinfu’s position, he would still feel uncomfortable. Moreover, the person who took his subordinates and silver was a rookie brat.

Qin Huai gave a few more instructions to Zhou Cunzhong, urging his subordinates to cultivate properly.

“Fifth Master, should I send someone to follow you? It’s been dangerous outside lately!” Zhou Cunzhong asked loudly.

“No need!” Qin Huai waved his hand, then stopped in his tracks and ordered, “By the way, gather more information about the famous geniuses in the city for me! Send out a few brothers and keep an eye on them.”

The disappearance of the Thunderbolt Gang’s genius Hua Yanli had always weighed on Qin Huai’s heart. When he broke through to the fifth-level bone pattern realm, would he suddenly vanish?

Qin Huai knew that he would reach that level sooner or later, and he even had the king’s force. Since his situation was nearly identical to Hua Yanli’s, he grew increasingly anxious about uncovering the terrifying truth.

Meanwhile, Zhou Cunzhong’s eyes lit up. “This subordinate understands!”

He was excited. In his opinion, Fifth Master was gathering information about the city’s geniuses to follow Fourth Master’s path and cultivate the king’s Force. They wanted to compete for the title of Qingzhou’s number one prodigy. Only by following such a genius would one have unlimited prospects in the future.

Even if… even though Fifth Master still appeared a bit immature and innocent now, they would easily trust a fence-sitter like Yang Erbao and entrust him with important tasks. But Zhou Cunzhong believed these were minor issues. In the future, as long as he closely followed Fifth Master’s footsteps, endless light would await him.

Unaware of Zhou Cunzhong’s many assumptions, Qin Huai silently walked toward the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary in the city.

Once Qin Huai left the Blood Poison Gang’s territory, he changed into a black robe and a bamboo hat in a narrow alley.

In the outer city of Qingzhou, it was common to see people dressed like him. Individuals from various counties of Qingzhou who wandered the streets had committed great crimes and were hated by the people, so they were unwilling to be seen by gangs of all sizes. This sight was everywhere.

Qin Huai easily found the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary. It was a tall red brick building, designed in the shape of an upside-down three-legged cauldron. The style was particularly eye-catching and easy to find.

Inside the Three Cauldron Elixir Dispensary, a middle-aged man stood behind the counter in the front hall. He looked up from time to time to observe the guests coming and going.

When the middle-aged man saw Qin Huai, he was stunned. But he quickly put on a smile and walked out from behind the counter. He jogged over to Qin Huai.

“Sir, what kind of medicinal pill do you want?”

“It’s not convenient to talk about it here,” Qin Huai said.

“This way, please!” The middle-aged man didn’t hesitate. He extended his hand and led Qin Huai to a small room.

Once Qin Huai saw that there was no one around, he took out the medicinal pill from his arms.

“You want me to check it?” The middle-aged man looked at the pill and smiled.

Qin Huai handed the pill over.

“Ah, it’s the red qi tiger wolf pill… It’s a medicinal pill used by the army in the easternmost city of Qingzhou and the area around Lingjiang to cultivate the four-directional tiger-wolf technique. One pill can allow one’s cultivation of the said technique to advance by leaps and bounds.”

The middle-aged man had accurately identified the pill at first glance, but he still examined it carefully to be sure.

“The ingredients for this red qi tiger wolf pill are difficult to find. In addition, those who cultivate the four-directional tiger-wolf technique in Qingzhou are not considered the best… Therefore, this pill is worth about ten thousand taels of silver. I wonder if you want to sell or buy?” The middle-aged man looked at Qin Huai.

Ten thousand taels for one… Even though Qin Huai was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the price. However, one pill could save a martial artist at the second-level bone pattern realm more than ten days of bitter cultivation, so the steep price was acceptable.

Although martial artists’ lifespans would increase as their cultivation increased, the path of martial arts was ultimately a race against time. The earlier one could break through to a higher realm, the higher their chances of breaking through to the next realm when their vitality was abundant.

Of course, Qin Huai cultivated the concealment of spirit and qi technique, so he had a total of seven hundred years of lifespan. Naturally, he was not afraid of the erosion of time. But now the world was difficult, and he feared time would not wait for him.

“I want to buy it,” Qin Huai smiled and said, “I wonder how many red qi tiger wolf pills you have in your pavilion?”

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and then laughed involuntarily. “Although this pavilion doesn’t have many of these pills, we always have a hundred of them. I wonder if that’s enough to satisfy your appetite.”

The middle-aged man’s tone was slightly patronizing. This was a million taels of silver. Even an ordinary sect leader wouldn’t be able to produce so much money in a short period of time.

“Then I’ll order a hundred pills first.”

Whoosh!

The middle-aged man’s waist instantly bent down, and the smile on his face became more and more sincere.
