I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 155: Pill Refinement Skills

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Zhou Feng joined this joint caravan, he did not encounter any big problems along the way.

But as he got further away from the Tri-Gu Sect’s jurisdiction, the number of demonic beasts in the surroundings began to increase.

This was also the first time he encountered a group of demonic beasts. He did not know when these demonic beasts started following behind the caravan like sharks following a cruise ship.

If someone were not careful, they would become the food of these demonic beasts.

It was worth mentioning that these demonic beasts carried a striking demonic aura.

What kind of feeling did the demonic aura give to people?

One of brutality, bloodthirst, and chaos!

This was Zhou Feng’s first perception of demonic aura.

This was completely different from the pure spiritual aura on Little Yellow’s body.

Little Yellow, which was still sucking on the Spirit Stone in his hand, did not have that brutal demonic aura on its body.

Instead, it exuded a pure spiritual aura. The difference between a demonic beast and a spirit beast was simply too great.

No wonder this spirit hound was so popular. Compared to those tyrannical demonic beasts, Little Yellow was simply too cute.

‘And that Qian father and daughter…’

Zhou Feng stroked Little Yellow while looking at Qian Shang and his daughter. They gave him a bizarre feeling, Qian Qianqian in particular. Although she was blind, her senses were very sharp.

Every time she encountered danger, she seemed to be able to predict it in advance, and at that time, she was extremely decisive, directly tying the Qian merchant group to him.

After all, Qian Qianqian did not have the slightest bit of cultivation.

However, although Zhou Feng was a little curious, he did not have the intention to get to the bottom of it.

At present, he might as well think about his future.

After a short period of confusion, Zhou Feng quickly decided on his life goal—that was to live forever! As long as he could live on!

And on this basis, he continued to increase his cultivation.

Also, although he had escaped from the Tri-Gu Sect, the sect’s threat didn’t disappear.

The Tri-Gu Sect had been breached, but their main forces were still preserved.

Zhou Feng still needed to quickly increase his strength to deal with any future accidents.

This begged the question, how could he increase his strength?

This question haunted Zhou Feng.

Previously, in order to pursue speed, Zhou Feng could be described as rampaging on the road of cultivation.

Now, if he wanted to continue improving his strength, it seemed that the only thing left was to break through to the Purple Mansion realm.

If he could break through to the Purple Mansion realm, condense his nascent soul, and unlock his innate divine ability, then his strength would be increased by a tremendous amount.

However, breaking through to the Purple Mansion realm was easier said than done. Without cultivation techniques and resources, how could he break through?

‘Wait! I forgot about my pill refinement skills!’

Zhou Feng suddenly recalled his pill refinement skills, as well as Pill Master Yuan’s pill refinement inheritance, which was still in his hands.

Now, he seemed to be able to pick up this pill refinement technique.

Previously, due to various reasons, Zhou Feng had given up on this pill refinement technique.

But in reality, if one became a Pill Master, they would be very popular.

Especially in a large city like Heavenly Star City, the supply of pill refinement ingredients would definitely be ample.

At the same time, lots of people should reside in such a large city, and there was also a consumer market.

Perhaps, he could use his pill refinement technique to exchange for a portion of the resources needed to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm?

A Purple Mansion cultivation technique was not something that could be exchanged with ordinary Spirit Stones.

But what if it was a precious medicinal pill? That was hard to say!

The more Zhou Feng thought about it, the more he felt that this was extremely beneficial.

It was just that pill refinement required a lot of resources. It would be great to draw some passive knowledge about pill refinement.

‘I’d better review the knowledge about pill refinement first…’

Since Zhou Feng had nothing to do now, he planned to review the knowledge about pill refinement in the carriage.

In any case, they were still very far from Heavenly Star City. It would probably take a long time to travel.

Thus, Zhou Feng buried his head into the sea of pill refinement knowledge.

A few waves of demonic beasts attacked the joint caravan during this time.

However, these demonic beasts were all small fries, so they were easily repelled.

Another thing was that Big Yellow had already sucked the Spiritual Qi inside a few Spirit Stones dry.

Zhou Feng casually took out another Spirit Stone and threw it to Big Yellow.

That grandiose move showed Qian Shang what it meant to be a tycoon.

Qian Shang still remembered that Zhou Feng had not been that generous back then. He had even been reduced to collecting protection fees from the market.

Qian Shang still remembered that he had not thought much of Zhou Feng back then.

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Zhou Feng would become an unfathomable bigshot while he was still a small businessman?

Fortunately, he seized the last opportunity.

He firmly grabbed this thick leg of Zhou Feng, thinking that he should be able to stay in Heavenly Star City for some time.

The night gradually grew darker.

At this time, the wilderness was perilous. Some demonic beasts that did not appear during the day would appear at this time.

Therefore, it was not suitable to travel at night.

Everyone in the joint caravan was also very taciturn. At the same time, they began to set up camp, preparing to spend the night in the wilderness.

Setting up camp was very particular. The large caravans were stationed at the core position.

Then, according to the strength of each caravan, they would line up outside one by one.

Simply put, some small caravans would act as the outer defense of the camp.

The small caravans were also very tactful toward this because only then would these large caravans be willing to bring them to Heavenly Star City.

Logically speaking, Qian Shang’s merchant caravan would also be stationed at the outermost perimeter, facing the sneak attacks of demonic beasts at any time.

However, because of Zhou Feng’s existence, Qian Shang’s caravan was arranged to be near the core position in the middle.

“It’s really different with an expert overseeing it! These big cats and kittens can occupy such a good position!”

“That’s right! This is the treatment of an expert! I can’t be envious!”

‘…’

Seeing the treatment of Qian Shang’s caravan, some merchants couldn’t help but say a few sour words.

After all, the scale of Qian Shang’s caravan was too small. They had all been cannon fodder before Zhou Feng appeared.

Now that they occupied such a good position, the status quo changed.

In a short while, all the caravans were stationed.

At that moment, a long howl made everyone present vigilant.

“Awooo!”

“Awooo!”

A cacophony of howls followed the long wolf howl.

“Oh no! This is a wolf pack!?”

These continuous wolf howls made some experienced people break out in a cold sweat.

Their luck was too bad! They encountered a demonic wolf pack.

Compared to ordinary demonic beasts, this demonic wolf pack was the most dangerous in the wild.

This was because these demonic wolf packs not only possessed astonishing strength but were also very disciplined and would act as a team.

Once such a wolf pack targeted them, they would land a devastating blow to the joint caravan.
