Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Inventory of Gains (Please Favorite, Vote for Recommendation)

Several minutes later, Bai Ziyue smoothly returned to his room.

After confirming that no one had noticed him, he carefully closed the door and placed the bundle he got from Liu the Sixth on the table.

Staring at the bundle for a while, his initially tense emotions gradually relaxed, and then quickly turned to excitement.

Without hesitation, he quickly opened the bundle.

The moment the bundle was opened, despite being mentally prepared, his pupils contracted, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.

The first thing that caught his eye was the scattered silvers, each the size of a child’s fist, weighing ten taels each. The intricate engravings of the Jingxi Commerce Association on the silver pieces were enough to make anyone’s breathing quicken momentarily.

"Thirteen pieces?"

Bai Ziyue gulped as he took out all the silver, laying them on the table—a total of thirteen pieces.

Immediately, Bai Ziyue couldn’t wait to take out the two books from the bundle.

"’Fifth Rank Golden Body,’ ’Eagle Claw Skill.’"

Seeing the titles, Bai Ziyue’s face once again lit up with joy.

"Although this time I took a great risk, just getting this ’Fifth Rank Golden Body’ makes it all worth it.

Let alone, there’s an additional benefit—the ’Eagle Claw Skill.’"

Bai Ziyue had seen Liu the Sixth’s Eagle Claw Skill in action—fierce and sharp, capable of crushing stones with a single strike. It was definitely a powerful martial art.

Taking out the silver and cultivation techniques, there were only two items left in the bundle.

One was a long wooden box, the other a small porcelain bottle.

Bai Ziyue picked up the wooden box. He had hurriedly opened it back on the battlefield, and now, opening it again, ten golden leaves and four or five translucent jade pendants appeared before him.

"This is truly a fortune of immense wealth.

Just those thirteen silver pieces amount to one hundred and thirty taels.

And here, there are eleven golden leaves. Calculating one tael of gold as equivalent to ten taels of silver, each golden leaf weighing about one and a half taels, this makes it one hundred and sixty-five taels.

Plus, there are five valuable jade pendants..."

Bai Ziyue calculated briefly, then sighed, "All together, this is worth at least five hundred taels."

Five hundred taels of silver were unimaginable wealth for Bai Ziyue.

Just a few months ago, he had only about three pennies of patterned silver, which his mother had earned through two months of hard labor.

"A regular water bandit couldn’t possibly have so much wealth. It’s obvious that Liu the Sixth stole it from Water Immortal when he defected."

Bai Ziyue quickly deduced.

If it weren’t for such a huge loss, Water Immortal wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to hunt down Liu the Sixth, setting an ambush specifically for him.

Finally, Bai Ziyue picked up the porcelain bottle.

Quickly, he noticed a golden sticker on the bottle, clearly written with a few words.

"Qi Blood Pill!"

Bai Ziyue’s heart trembled, "A pill!"

He knew that in the Sunburst Gang Branch, inner sect apprentices had the chance to receive a Qi Blood Pill every month, said to bolster Qi and blood and enhance potential. However, obviously, Qi Blood Pills were far inferior to Qi Blood Pills.

And now, in his hands, there was a bottle of Qi Blood Pills.

It was clear that Liu the Sixth had kept these for cultivation purposes.

Even though he didn’t know the precise value of a Qi Blood Pill, he knew that there were inner sect apprentices in the Sunburst Gang Branch willing to spend one tael of silver to get a Qi Blood Pill for training.

Thus, it was evident that the value of a Qi Blood Pill was naturally much higher than one tael of silver.

Opening the porcelain bottle, Bai Ziyue shook it, and two thumb-sized Qi Blood Pills, pink in color, quietly lay in his hand.

"Clearly, there were originally three pills in the bottle. Liu the Sixth must have used one, leaving only two."

Carefully putting the two Qi Blood Pills back in the bottle, Bai Ziyue then methodically wrapped all his findings and hid them carefully.

He needed to think carefully about how to use these gains to enhance his strength.

"I must definitely practice the ’Fifth Rank Golden Body.’ My current abilities have hit a bottleneck. Pure martial arts training will certainly enhance my power, but not greatly. Only by practicing the Fifth Rank Golden Body and reaching the External Forging Realm will my strength, stamina, and speed... most importantly, my power, increase.

That way, I’ll have more confidence when facing the unknown Ghost-Nurturing Evil Cultivator."

Bai Ziyue thought silently.

Without resolving this issue, he wouldn’t even dare to go to Chongyan Mountain to practice the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique.

As for the Sunburst Gang Branch, due to its low terrain, even staying on the rooftop made it difficult to capture the Sunrise Purple Qi for cultivation.

Thus, his path of cultivation had come to a halt.

"Additionally, now that I have ample silver coins, perhaps I can also practice drawing talismans as per the ’Hundred Talisman Atlas.’"

Previously, Bai Ziyue had always been fascinated by the mystical talismans in the ’Hundred Talisman Atlas’ and wanted to practice drawing them.

However, due to financial constraints, just the talisman pen needed for drawing talismans had made him hesitant, forcing him to give up.

The talisman pens required for drawing talismans were completely different from regular brushes.

The most common type was the wolf hair brush, costing at least three or four taels of silver.

Higher-grade ones, made from the fur of exotic beasts with vibrant Qi and blood and the effect of spirit communication, were naturally exorbitantly priced.

As for talisman ink, although cinnabar could be used, to truly harness the power depicted in the ’Hundred Talisman Atlas,’ higher-grade talisman ink was typically necessary.

Talisman paper, on the other hand, could be the Hundred-pleated Paper used by government exam students, which was not uncommon, just costly.

With his mind set, Bai Ziyue felt much more at ease. He was about to get up and go out when he heard footsteps outside.

Soon after, there was a knock on the door.

"Junior Brother Ziyue, are you there?"

A somewhat immature voice came from outside the door.

"Senior Brother Qin? I’ll open the door right away."

Bai Ziyue was slightly taken aback. He quickly got up and opened the door, asking in confusion, "What brings you here, Senior Brother Qin?"

The visitor was none other than Qin Shaoping.

"Junior Brother Ziyue, I’m here to congratulate you.

I heard the news yesterday and hurried to the practice field early this morning to tell you, but you weren’t there..."

Qin Shaoping said with a helpless expression.

He had woken up half an hour earlier than usual this morning just to share the good news.

"Congratulate? For what?"

Bai Ziyue was still a bit confused.

His scheming and great harvest this morning could indeed be considered great news.

But it was obvious that the good news Qin Shaoping was referring to had nothing to do with his own matter.
