Chapter 177: Opening the Shop

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Feng once again felt the terror of being a passive expert.

He didn’t need to waste much energy thanks to this passive skill. He could refine a big batch of Rejuvenation Pills.

Even when he was lucky, the success rate exceeded 15%.

Zhou Feng used up all the raw materials in one go.

After refining all the medicinal materials into Rejuvenation Pills, he began to count how many Rejuvenation Pills he had.

There were a total of 1,000!

Just the medicinal gourd alone contained more than ten, and all of them were Rejuvenation Pills.

And the cost was probably only a few hundred Spirit Stones?

After all, many of these raw materials were already in Zhou Feng’s storage ring.

In any case, the cost was very low, and this didn’t include the cost of purchasing the raw materials himself.

If he entrusted some cultivators to collect the raw materials for the Rejuvenation Pill, the cost should be even lower.

The market price outside was about 15 Spirit Stones for a Rejuvenation Pill!

Zhou Feng was not very clear either. If he sold it for 14 Spirit Stones, there should be many people who would buy it.

In this way, 1,000 Rejuvenation Pills would cost more than 10,000 Spirit Stones, and the cost would only be a few hundred Spirit Stones.

Damn! This was too profitable!

In simple terms, Zhou Feng felt that this was even more profitable than refining Spirit Accumulation Pills.

Zhou Feng pondered for a moment. As long as he refined pills every day, he would be able to obtain sufficient Spirit Stones.

Moreover, refining pills was only a means to earn Spirit Stones. He wouldn’t waste too much time on improving his pill refinement skills.

This meant that he did not need to expend many resources to improve himself like other Pill Masters.

In any case, it was enough at the current stage. Continuing to waste time on pill refinement was not worth Zhou Feng’s time.

Firstly, his talent in pill refinement was not very good. Secondly, he did not have a Master to teach him.

If he wasted too much energy on the path of pill refinement, then it was very likely that he would fall behind on the path of cultivation.

One had to know that Zhou Feng’s talent in cultivation wasn’t outstanding. He had relied entirely on all sorts of passive skills to reach this level.

As such, he couldn’t waste his energy on anything else.

“It only took two hours?”

This pill refinement task had ended, and Zhou Feng was preparing to begin his daily cultivation.

Ever since he had started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, he had been studying it every day, striving to condense his first drop of Human Emperor Blood.

This was because after condensing the Human Emperor Blood, it would mean that Zhou Feng had officially stepped into the Purple Mansion realm.

Being able to unlock one’s innate divine ability was a turning point in all cultivation paths.

The quality of one’s innate divine ability, to a large extent, determined their potential in the future.

And the Purple Mansion realm mainly cultivated this nascent soul and innate divine ability.

A large amount of Spiritual Qi was forcibly absorbed into Zhou Feng’s body.

The Blood Qi within his body began to revolve.

Zhou Feng had just started cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture when his body began to collapse, with all sorts of minor injuries appearing one after another.

In addition, his entire body’s Blood Qi and soul power had been severely depleted.

Zhou Feng felt that the process of cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture was constantly being drained and then recovering, repeating over and over again.

As for any changes in cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture, his feelings were not particularly obvious.

The only slight change was that his physical body was getting stronger and stronger, while his energy was getting more and more abundant.

Even if he did not sleep for a day, it did not have the slightest effect.

Also, the Spiritual Qi in his body was fading and slowly fusing into his physical body.

In the beginning, when Zhou Feng felt that his Spiritual Qi was getting less and less, he was shocked.

Spiritual Qi was the source and driving force of dao arts, and they would be useless without it.

But later, he found that the Spiritual Qi did not really disappear but merged into his body.

His Spiritual Qi could burst out with just a slight movement.

Obviously, the cultivation path of the Human Emperor Scripture was different from that of the current world.

But now, Zhou Feng had no choice. He had to cultivate even if he did not want to cultivate.

‘I can’t hold on any longer!’

Just as his body was about to reach its limit, Zhou Feng stopped.

His body was now riddled with injuries. If he took a look inside his body, he wouldn’t be able to recover.

Zhou Feng’s body was in a mess. If it were anyone else, they would have to lie down for at least a few months.

However, after Zhou Feng stopped cultivating, a large amount of Blood Qi began to be consumed.

The glaring injuries were recovering at speed visible to the naked eye.

Zhou Feng was completely used to this.

If he didn’t have the passive Tenacious Heart, cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture would be no different than committing suicide.

Zhou Feng picked up the medicinal gourd that he had just redeemed and immediately gulped down a few mouthfuls of medicinal liquid to replenish his Blood Qi.

“Old Skin seems to have been triggered again! This Human Emperor Scripture and Old Skin’s passive are a perfect match!”

Zhou Feng glanced at the skill panel and found that the passive Old Skin had been triggered.

He had always thought that Old Skin had a limit, but he was now aware that it had not reached its limit yet.

It was just that his injuries had not been serious enough before, so he had not triggered it.

And every time he cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture, Zhou Feng would be able to injure himself all over.

After he finished cultivating, his passive Tenacious Heart allowed all these injuries to recover.

In the end, Old Skin’s passive effect was successfully triggered, increasing his defense by a little.

This formed a perfect cycle.

Zhou Feng did not know how terrifying his physical body was, but it was definitely several times stronger than before.

It would become a path for his physical body to attain the Dao the more he cultivated.

In fact, he did not like the path of attaining the Dao with his physical body.

This was because the difficulty of attaining the Dao with his physical body was too high, and Zhou Feng did not think his aptitude was that high.

This Human Emperor Scripture was obviously a method of attaining the Dao with his physical body, but the legendary Human Emperor had created it under different factors.

If he did not cheat, he might not have chosen to cultivate the Human Emperor Scripture for the rest of his life.

But it was useless to say anything now. He could only walk one path to the end.

…

At dawn, Qian Shang and Qian Qianqian brought Zhou Feng to the shop that they had bought in advance.

The shop’s location wasn’t bad, and the layout was the kind that Zhou Feng liked.

It had to be said that sometimes it was quite good to have a few subordinates. At the very least, he didn’t have to deal with some trivial matters himself.

Zhou Feng did not bother with fancy ceremonies and announced the shop’s opening.

It didn’t have a name, only a large wooden sign with the words: “Numerous Rejuvenation Pills are being sold! 1 pill for 13 Spirit Stones!”

Qian Shang had already investigated and found the market price of Rejuvenation Pills was around 15 Spirit Stones.

Some shops sold them at a higher price because of their better quality.

Those with lower quality sold it at a lower price.

However, the price was usually not lower than 15 Spirit Stones per pill.

With this price as a reference, he had lowered the price by 2 Spirit Stones. For some low-level cultivators, this was still very tempting.

In addition to this price, Zhou Feng called Qian Shang to take charge of the shop.

As for himself, he stayed behind and continued to cultivate.

He had come here to keep an eye on things to avoid any accidents on the first day of opening the shop. After that, he might come here once in a while..
