The next moment, Shi Ling's body was enveloped by the layer of dark blue Yin Fire. Shi Ling immediately fell to the ground and roared in pain, not because Shi Ling's endurance was too poor, but because the pain caused by the dark blue Yin Fire was too great for Shi Ling to endure.

Shi Ling clenched both of his hands tightly, feeling that the flames were like sharp blades cutting his flesh. Shi Ling was in so much pain that sweat started to roll down his forehead.

However, this kind of pain that an extraordinary person could endure was tempering Shi Ling's body at an astonishing speed. On Shi Ling's body, the muscles bulged from the explosive strength of his body started to shrink as if they were being compressed, causing the toughness of Shi Ling's body to skyrocket.

From his point of view, the pain that Shi Ling was enduring was nothing. At that moment, he flew to a stone table at the side and laid down, his gaze looking at the moonlight in the sky. He estimated that it would be dawn in four hours, and when that happened, the flames on Shi Ling's body would automatically extinguish. At that time, he would have to see how much stronger Shi Ling's physical strength had become before he could judge the next step in his training plan.

Immediately, Bai Xiaosheng let out a "haw" sound before closing his eyes and falling asleep on the stone table. At the same time, Wu Tie, who was lying on the ground, had already fainted.

"..."

Very soon, the next morning, Shi Ling, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes and stood up. One of his hands rubbed his head and he looked a little dazed.

At this moment, Shi Ling walked up to Bai Xiaosheng. Seeing that this guy was still sleeping soundly, he was furious. He immediately picked him up and said, "Hey, Bai Xiaosheng!"

Bai Xiaosheng's eyes immediately widened and he screamed: "Ah, what, what! An earthquake? A fire? The Celestial Tribulation has begun?

Soon after, he saw Shi Ling look at him with disdain. Bai Xiaosheng could not help but cough dryly and knew that he had lost his composure. He immediately said: "Have you finished cultivating?"

Shi Ling shrugged and said, "The fire has disappeared. I want to ask you, what's your next training course?"

Hearing Shi Ling's words, Bai Xiaosheng realized that dawn had arrived. He then said, "Alright, stand far away first. Let me test your training results for the whole night."

Shi Ling took more than ten steps back and asked, "Can we go here?"

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and said, "Next, you just need to stand still."

The next moment, Bai Xiaosheng controlled a stone the size of a bucket to fly up and then suddenly smashed it towards Shi Ling. Shi Ling's pupils shrank as he saw this, and even though Bai Xiaosheng's physical body was strong enough, he was not arrogant to the point that he felt that he could ignore the attack of such a huge stone with just his physical body. At that moment, he wanted to resist, but Bai Xiaosheng suddenly said, "Just stand there and don't move!"

Hearing that, Shi Ling put his raised hand down again and looked at the rock falling towards him. It was purely out of instinct. He raised his hand and put it in front of him.

Dong, Shi Ling was hit. Then, he took a few steps back. His hands, which were used to resist, became numb from the shock! The force from the last strike was not small. If it was an ordinary body refining second level cultivator, he would probably have been smashed into a serious injury.

Shi Ling's face immediately flushed red. He looked at the rock that fell to the ground and then looked at Bai Xiaosheng that was flying towards him. He said, "What kind of test is this?"

Bai Xiaosheng looked down and said: "I fell back seven steps! "It seems like this night's training has not produced much effect after all!"

Only now did he realize that after being hit by the huge rock, he had only taken seven steps back. Moreover, when he looked at his own hands, although they were very numb when they were first hit, after a period of time, they were fine again. Such a terrifying physical defense, even a normal 4th Body Refinement Layer expert would not be able to reach that level.

Immediately, he looked at his hands in shock, and revealed an excited expression behind, and said: "Wow, Bai Xiaosheng, what's going on? How did my toughness increase by so much? "

Bai Xiaosheng smiled disdainfully and said: "Is that considered a lot? Just look at that rock, even if it dies, it would only weigh around two hundred kilograms. Previously, you were about twenty meters away from it, and at the speed of impact, you crashed into it with a speed of ten meters per second. Under these conditions, you were actually forced to take seven steps back before stopping. "

He really wanted to say that his waist hurt just standing there talking. If he had the ability, he would try it himself, but of course, he wouldn't say it out loud. After all, he still needed to rely on him to guide his cultivation.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng said, "Let's go."

Shi Ling asked, "Where to?"

Bai Xiaosheng said, "Go out and find some cultivation resources to assist you. Otherwise, with your rate of growth, you won't be able to achieve much in a few hundred years."

Shi Ling's mouth twitched as he said: "Will I die if you don't mock me?"

However, after Bai Xiaosheng's reminder, Shi Ling suddenly said, "Oh right, I remember now. I was just about to go buy cultivation resources today."

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at him and said, "Do you have a special place to buy it?"

Shi Ling acknowledged and Bai Xiaosheng said, "Originally, I wanted to take you outside to find it myself, but since it's ready, then forget it. I can only take you out to gain experience after your strength has increased."

"..."

After that, Shi Ling first went to the service department, asked for a day's leave from the job manager, then walked towards the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Although Shi Ling's strength had already come up, he was still a servant after all, so many things couldn't be done just because he wanted to, so it was necessary to go to the manager for a day's leave.

Soon, Shi Ling arrived at a magnificent building. When he looked up, he could see that this building had seven floors, and was shaped like a cone. It was made up of a variety of high-strength crystals, and covered an area the size of a football field.

In this place, there were a lot of people coming and going here every day, and regardless of the disciple's rank, they would basically all appear here. This was because in this place, as long as you paid them, they would be able to exchange for a lot of cultivation resources.

Shi Ling looked at the signboard above them and saw three bold and powerful words "Myriad Treasures Pavilion" written on it.

In the past, when Shi Ling was still an official disciple, he came here with some 'friends' to buy cultivation resources. Later on, he was demoted to a janitor and basically never set foot in this place again, and those 'friends' now become inner sect disciples. They have a private immortal's manor that can guard a city and enjoy the wealth that countless mortals can't enjoy.

At this moment, Shi Ling couldn't help but smile. Now that he came back, those former colleagues were nobles and he was still in the service circle. The contrast between them was really hard for him to accept.

When Shi Ling stepped into the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, he saw goods placed on shelves one by one. This place gave people the feeling that it was a merchant's market in the mortal world, where any sect disciple could choose anything they wanted.

At the same time, Bai Xiaosheng was also following beside Shi Ling. Due to some special reasons, other than Shi Ling, basically no one else could see Bai Xiaosheng. Therefore, no one would notice him flying around this place.

Bai Xiaosheng shouted: "Damn, are we going into the trash market? No matter what, it was a pile of useless things. Look at this golden orchid, only fifty years old and its medicinal properties had been diluted. Furthermore, its leaves were already withered yellow. How dare it sell something like this! Damn, he actually wanted 180 gold coins! Why the f * ck didn't he just snatch it? "There is also this Tier 1 Pure Yuan Pill. It is not smooth on the surface, and is even rough on the surface. Not only is its quality lacking, it also doesn't have a sufficient amount of weight. Damn it, it actually costs fifty gold coins!"

Shi Ling looked at this guy speechlessly. Previously, he thought this guy seemed to be someone who had seen the world, but why was he so fussy about money? He even belittled those treasures that could only be met by luck but not sought after.

Immediately, he sighed and said: "This is the first floor of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, there are enough goods here, and their quality is not bad. However, the real treasures can only be bought on the floors above."

Bai Xiaosheng immediately said: "Then why didn't you go up and buy them? Why have you been wandering around looking at these trash."

Shi Ling said snappily, "Do you think anyone can go up there? Other than the disciples from the top sects and the disciples from the big families, there are not many people who have the money to buy things there. "

When Bai Xiaosheng heard this, he finally understood. To put it bluntly, Shi Ling was short on money right now, so he could only linger at the lowest level since he couldn't afford anything good.

At this time, Shi Ling arrived in front of a region filled with sparkling and translucent beads. From the size of a grain of rice, to the size of a pearl, there were even some the size of a pigeon's egg. Am I not afraid of Qi deviation when I use it for cultivation? "

Shi Ling said: "If you want to get rid of all these emotions and desires, you have to go to the Mourning Pavilion to spend some other people, this place won't help you get rid of them, of course, it's not like there aren't any pure Wishing Spirit Bead, it's just that this is only bought on the third floor, and the price is very high, at least I can't afford it right now."

Bai Xiaosheng couldn't help but twitch his mouth and said, "Your sect really knows how to do business."

Shi Ling was noncommittal. He glanced at the low-ranked Wishing Spirit Bead, which was about the size of a grain of rice, for a price of ten gold, and then looked at the mid-ranked Wishing Spirit Bead, which was about the size of a pearl. The price was fifty gold, and finally, the price was one hundred gold.

Bai Xiaosheng said, "Why only 20? In your future training courses, you will definitely use this thing many times! I suggest you buy more. "

Shi Ling said: "I want to as well, but the problem is that I still have to buy some other things, even though there aren't many high rank Wishing Spirit Bead, but it cost me 200 gold coins. You have to know, I only have 2400 gold coins on me, so any random purchase will end up wasting all of it."

Saying that, Shi Ling sighed again and said two words, "I'm poor!"

When he returned to the sect, he originally thought that two thousand gold coins was enough for him to enjoy life freely. But who knew that when he came to buy cultivation resources, he would discover that the price of the things here had increased so much. For a moment, Shi Ling felt that he had returned to before liberation in one night.

Bai Xiaosheng did not say much and just watched quietly. In the following time, Shi Ling bought another thirty one-time use detonation talismans, which cost him 300 gold coins, three Tier 1 pills and Spirit Cleansing Pills, which cost him 100 gold coins, a Stellar Source Fruit seedling, 400 gold coins, and a special petri dish specially used to cultivate the Stellar Source Fruit seedling, which cost him 500 gold coins.

After spending all his money, Shi Ling's income was reduced to half, leaving him with only 930 gold coins.

After all, this was the money that he had risked his life to earn, and he immediately sighed. Previously, Shi Ling wanted to buy a Storage Ring, but Bai Xiaosheng later said that the Heart Ring had the ability to store objects, so Shi Ling did not buy it, otherwise, Shi Ling's money would have to be cut in half.

However, at this time, the corner of Shi Ling's eyes looked towards the entrance of the gate. Seeing a beautiful figure leisurely entering the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, instantly, more than ninety percent of the people present focused their gazes on that beautiful figure.

"Wow, look! That's senior sister Yun Zhiqian. I didn't expect to see her today. She's so pretty."

"If senior sister Yun Zhiqian could look at me, I would be willing to jump off the building as well."

A lot of people started talking among themselves. Only Shi Ling's expression changed and he turned around to leave.

At that time, she was famous for being a great beauty. There were a lot of suitors lining up to please her, just to make her smile, so Shi Ling was one of them.

Until today, Shi Ling would never forget the scene of him confessing to her in front of everyone and then being rejected by her, which was as awkward as it could get. Now, like Chen Lu, she had already become an inner disciple of the sect, guarding a city for the sect, and she was a terrifying existence that was ranked in the top ten of the Heavenly Ranking.

Meeting an acquaintance was naturally awkward, Shi Ling naturally did not want to be seen by her. At this moment, he only wanted to hide as far away as possible. However, at this time, a gentle and beautiful voice sounded, "Shi Ling!"

At that moment, without even looking back, he ran as if he had a guilty conscience. However, at this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of Shi Ling. A guard with a sabre looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Young master, our family's young miss is here to invite you!"

When Shi Ling saw the person in front of him, the corner of his eyes twitched. At the same time, behind Shi Ling, Yun Zhiqianqiao walked over with a sweet smile and said, "Long time no see, Shi Ling."

At this moment, Shi Ling turned around with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. He looked at the exceptionally charming lady in white and said, "Long time no see."

Yun Zhiqian came to him and said, "Am I that scary? Let you run the moment you see me? "

The corner of Shi Ling's eyes twitched as he said, "Uh, um, I just remembered something important and wanted to leave."

It was the uniform of a janitor disciple from the sect. Although it looked clean, it was old, and Yun Zhiqian said, "I had been in closed door training for two years, and recently I just came out. I heard from them that you have been demoted to a janitor from the sect, is that true?"
