“I'm rich!”
Yang Qiu took a deep breath, trying to calm his excited emotions.
First, he gathered plenty of materials from the formation.
Now, he had stumbled upon a small cave heaven and obtained countless spiritual herbs.
Combining the two, not only had he fully recovered his previous losses, but he had also made quite a profit.
More importantly…
According to the Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, deep within this cave heaven, there was even a method to achieve sainthood. This was a bombshell!
With all three factors combined, his assets had multiplied several times over!
“Once I become a Saint, I'll have to forge a Saint-grade weapon!”
Yang Qiu thought to himself.
What kind of existence was a Saint?
With just a stomp of their foot, the surrounding millions of miles would shake. Such an existence was the foundation of a sect. How could they continue using a Saint Lord-grade weapon?
But the problem was, the materials needed to forge Saint Lord-grade weapons were extremely precious.
Let alone the materials required to forge a Saint-grade weapon.
“These spiritual herbs might allow me to buy some information about divine metals from the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.”
Everyone has their lazy side.
If there was no convenient path, it couldn't be helped.
It would take him seven or eight hundred years to gather the materials to forge a weapon, but now that he knew an easier way, Yang Qiu wasn't willing to spend time and effort searching slowly.
Wouldn't it be better to take a shortcut?
At this moment, Yang Qiu still didn't realize that, without him knowing, he had already become a frequent and loyal customer of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.
“The priority now is still to eliminate my heart demon,” Yang Qiu muttered to himself.
He glanced around at the spiritual herbs but didn't choose to pick any.
Spiritual herbs were different from other items. They were very delicate. If the harvesting method wasn't right, they could lose potency, or worse, vanish completely. He needed to take it slow and be careful.
In this small cave heaven, there were countless spiritual herbs. If he tried picking them all, it could take years.
And even after picking, the herbs needed to be carefully preserved. If not handled properly, their potency would quickly decrease.
Rather than expending energy and failing to preserve them, it would be better to let these herbs continue growing here.
After all, only he knew about this place.
Well…
It's true he had to count the Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower as well.
Judging by the Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower's strength, Yang Qiu guessed that such an expert wouldn't be idle enough to come here and snatch opportunities. If they wanted to rob him, they would simply not tell him about this place in the first place. Wouldn't that be more convenient?
With that thought in mind, Yang Qiu had no further concerns. He bent down and carefully dug up the Tianqing Kongling Grass, then cut off a small section.
The rest was sealed in a jade box, which he reinforced with several restrictions before putting it away.
A hundred thousand-year-old spiritual herb had powerful medicinal properties. He didn't need much, and what remained could be sold for a fortune once he took it out.
With more resources, he would have the opportunity to buy information about potential Saint King opportunities at the Heavenly Mechanism Tower when he had time.
Although he hadn't yet achieved sainthood, Yang Qiu had already planned the rahead.
A while later, Yang Qiu sat cross-legged on the ground, adjusting his energy and spirit to their peak. He then swallowed the Tianqing Kongling Grass in one go. The moment the herb entered his mouth, it turned into a warm current, flowing through his meridians and rushing into his mind.
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, Yang Qiu's consciousness shook, and his aura changed in an instant.
At that moment, the aura of the Dao flowed around him, as if he had merged with the natural world. The sound of the Great Dao rang in his ears, and black demonic flowers bloomed in the air.
The heart demon that had tormented him for so long vanished completely at this moment.
He had finally comprehended the Dao!
…
While Yang Qiu was immersed in his cultivation, a day passed.
In the morning, just as the sun was rising, a group of people arrived outside the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.
The leader of the group, dressed in armor that shimmered with spiritual energy, clearly not ordinary, stepped forward. His name was Han Feng, the chief of the guards under the Lord of Great Wasteland City. His usual duties involved overseeing the city's safety and maintaining order.
But today…
He had come to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower on a different mission.
That mission was to meet with the Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower!
Han Feng adjusted his clothes, ensuring there were no signs of disrespect, then took a few steps forward and arrived at the front of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower. He respectfully called out:
“Han Feng from Great Wasteland City, requesting to meet with the esteemed senior!”
“Han Feng?”
Inside the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, Li Yun looked puzzled. This name didn't seem familiar.
Could it be…?
A customer at this early hour?
That would be great!
Li Yun's spirits lifted, and he cleared his throat before speaking:
“Daoist Han, please enter.”
“Thank you, senior!”
Hearing the voice from inside, Han Feng was overjoyed. It seemed that this senior was not difficult to approach; much more cordial than he had imagined.
Han Feng stepped into the Heavenly Mechanism Tower and immediately saw Li Yun, dressed in a green robe.
He cupped his hands and bowed respectfully:
“I am Han Feng, sent by the Lord of Great Wasteland City. I've come today to express my thanks to senior for your assistance in saving Great Wasteland City yesterday.”
As he spoke, Han Feng took out a jade box from his hand, holding it with both hands, and walked up to Li Yun, offering it respectfully:
“This is a token of gratitude from the City Lord. Please accept it, senior.”
