In recent years, the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps had been an overlord in Green Mountain Town.
With Mu She’s formidable strength, they suppressed the Blood Battle Mercenary Corps and the Snake Nest Mercenary Corps to the point where they couldn’t fight back.
Naturally, looting people’s wealth was much easier, otherwise, they couldn’t have grown to a group of over a hundred mercenaries.
Jiang Cheng’s finger moved slightly, and a fourth-rank herb sitting in a corner slowly flew over.
“I didn’t expect the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps to have Ice Ridge Grass, which is essential for Tier 4 pills.
They probably didn’t discover its grade, otherwise, they wouldn’t have thrown it here.”
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng took the herb.
He liked to accumulate good things, and as for this money, he would keep it to renovate the house in the future.
Xiao Yixian had already started searching for treasure impatiently, but she didn’t find the bronze chest they had obtained in the cave last time.
“It seems the bronze chest has always been on Mu She’s person.”
Jiang Cheng turned around.
By now, Mu She was silent, his brains splattered and his limbs broken.
Clearly, he had been beaten to death by the fourth-rank magical beast.
Killed along with him were Mu She’s biological son, Mu Li, and the Second Commander.
With their Dou Zhe strength, they were naturally no match for a fourth-rank magical beast; they were swept away in a single exchange.
Jiang Cheng caught the flying storage ring.
Looking at the countless good things inside, he became interested.
However, the items inside were useful to a Dou Shi, and as a Dou Sheng, they naturally couldn’t satisfy his appetite.
But the bronze chest Xiao Yixian was looking for was here.
He waved his hand, and it landed steadily on the ground.
Xiao Yixian’s eyes lit up, and she ran over impatiently, “Sir, this is the treasure we found in the cave.”
“But it needs a key…”
“Hehehe.”
Jiang Cheng smiled faintly and pointed a finger.
The seal attached to the bronze chest was instantly shattered.
In the face of absolute strength, anything related to seals was nothing to fear.
Xiao Yixian was even more shocked.
What was the Master’s cultivation, that such a nonchalant action could tear apart the shackles above?
Jiang Cheng did not speak but picked up the Dou Skill scroll inside and said: “Just a High Mysterious Class Dou Skill, nothing much.”
“In comparison, I care more about the herbs and books here.”
Xiao Yixian giggled, “Since the Master doesn’t like it, can I have it?”
Jiang Cheng did not refuse.
He tossed the High Mysterious Class Dou Skill down; it traced a perfect arc in the air and landed steadily in Xiao Yixian’s arms.
Xiao Yixian was currently only a Dou Zhe, so she naturally couldn’t refuse a High Mysterious Class Dou Skill.
Furthermore, there were so many gold and silver treasures here—the kind she couldn’t spend in a lifetime.
“Sir, let’s take all the money here back.”
Xiao Yixian blinked and asked.
“As you wish.” Jiang Cheng didn’t care much for wealth.
At his level, he would only be interested in supreme treasures, such as high-grade herbs, pills, Dou Skills, and methods.
The best thing here was the High Mysterious Class Dou Skill in Xiao Yixian’s arms.
After casually taking some things, Jiang Cheng set fire to the Wolf Head Mercenary Corps headquarters.
From now on, there would be no more Wolf Head Mercenary Corps.
Returning to Peach Forest Mountain.
Jiang Cheng reclined on his chair reading and studying, while Xiao Yixian and the little Amethyst Winged Lion King began to take stock of the gold coins and herbs brought back.
In the future, when buying things, they wouldn’t have to worry about the price of herbs.
“Master, the herbs you need have all been harvested.”
The Amethyst Winged Lion King came to Jiang Cheng’s side and handed over the storage ring containing the herbs.
As the overlord of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, he naturally knew where the herbs and treasures were.
Jiang Cheng put down his book, took the storage ring, and looked inside.
It was full of high-grade herbs, the most precious things in the eastern mountains, now all harvested and offered to the Master by the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
“Mhm, not bad.
I will refine pills for you.”
Jiang Cheng was a Confucian Sage, but he had another identity: an Eight-Star Alchemist.
In ten years, he had read countless alchemy books, exploring them and gradually discovering the fun of refining pills.
As a golden cauldron appeared abruptly, a thick aura burst forth.
As the cauldron slowly rotated, these fire totems appeared for the first time as if they were real.
One could even hear the deafening cries of the dragon and phoenix.
This was a cauldron rewarded to him by the system, named the Gold Dragon Phoenix Cauldron.
It was a top-grade cauldron.
Although it didn’t appear in the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking, the system clearly stated that the Gold Dragon Phoenix Cauldron was a cauldron beyond this world’s knowledge.
It could withstand any pill-related attack; even a Dou Sheng could not claim to break it with one punch.
The powerful holy power seemed able to shatter the silence of the night.
As an Eight-Star Alchemist, he decided to refine some pills that could improve the strength of several people.
Xiao Yixian and the little Amethyst Winged Lion King turned their heads simultaneously, looking at the Heavenly Flame floating around the Master’s body.
The little Amethyst Winged Lion King clearly felt a trace of timidness; magical beasts were naturally afraid of Heavenly Flames, and he was no exception.
The Heavenly Flame Jiang Cheng had obtained was named the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame!
As the fourth on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, although the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame was not as mysterious as the Purifying Lotus Demonic Flame, it had a great reputation in ancient times.
Furthermore, this Heavenly Flame was the ancestral flame of the Gu family; few people could subdue it.
The Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame was a terrifying flame said to be able to burn even Dou Qi.
Legend had it that the first owner of the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame directly burned a space created by a Dou Sheng into nothingness when using this flame.
If the system hadn’t rewarded him, he probably wouldn’t have been able to obtain the inherited Heavenly Flame, the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame.
The golden light of the fire flickered, and the scorching temperature seemed able to destroy everything, making even a powerhouse of the Amethyst Winged Lion King’s level stay away.
The Master’s strength was always a mystery.
The flames covered the Gold Dragon Phoenix Cauldron.
Once the cauldron was heated to a bright red, Jiang Cheng unhurriedly threw in the herbs brought by the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
The moment the herbs touched the Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame, they instantly transformed into a drop of liquid, spinning continuously in the cauldron.
But under the injection of a wisp of Dou Qi, these spiritual liquids were instantly suppressed, with no room for resistance.
“Xiao Yixian.”
“Sir.” Xiao Yixian hurried over and bowed: “Sir, what are your orders?”
“Sit down and watch my alchemy process up close.
This will be of great help to your future and is the most important step in becoming a poison master.”
