Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil-Chapter 1037 - 963: Treasure Hunt

Wang Siyu picked up a plate of small dishes, preparing to heat them up, but found that they were still warm.

Wang Siyu was slightly puzzled; even if Ye Qingfeng had left, he should have departed in the morning. It’s now evening, so how could the dishes still be warm?

Moreover, the dishes looked fresh, as if they had just been cooked.

Without overthinking, Wang Siyu served herself a bowl of rice and started eating.

She took a bite of green vegetables and froze. Could this really have been made by Ye Qingfeng?

She had never tasted such delicious food before. Was it really made by Ye Qingfeng?

Immediately, she understood why Ye Qingfeng said her porridge was average. Compared to Ye Qingfeng’s cooking, her porridge was garbage, impossible to swallow.

Wang Siyu felt a slight twinge in her heart; she knew this was probably the only time Ye Qingfeng would cook for her, and it would never happen again.

Because with Ye Qingfeng’s personality, he would never casually cook for someone.

The next morning, Ye Qingfeng and Lin Meng, along with a few others, returned to the Martial Arts Hall.

At the booth in the same corner, Ye Qingfeng instructed Zhong Ming to pull up the banner.

"Ye Qingfeng, why does everyone look at you so oddly, as if in fear, as if afraid?"

At this moment, Lin Meng asked beside Ye Qingfeng.

"I don’t know." Ye Qingfeng shook his head gently.

The fear in these people’s eyes was real, because those attending the martial artists’ gathering were just those few, about a hundred people.

News spread easily.

What happened yesterday was already known to the martial artists present.

And today Ye Qingfeng showed up, but Hong Pang and Lin Yan were nowhere to be seen, which spoke volumes.

"Senior, I don’t have century-old medicinal materials. How about this jade? I feel it has a special ethereal feeling, unlike ordinary items. However, I’m not certain if it’s useful, so I present it for your appraisal."

Then, a martial artist holding a longsword walked over, respectfully taking out a pale green jade stone.

"Alright!"

Ye Qingfeng, with a calm expression, directly took out a ceramic bottle and tossed it to the man.

"Thank you, Senior." The martial artist holding the longsword immediately beamed and gave Ye Qingfeng a respectful bow.

Ye Qingfeng remained expressionless and didn’t return the gesture.

The man wasn’t angry at all; instead, his face couldn’t hide the excitement. He placed the jade on Ye Qingfeng’s stall and respectfully stepped back.

Ye Qingfeng collected the jade stone; though it couldn’t aid his cultivation, it could be used to refine magic artifacts.

Anyway, those body refining elixirs were abundant for Ye Qingfeng.

Seeing someone exchange for elixirs at Ye Qingfeng’s booth again, many others became intrigued and surrounded him.

"Senior, I also have a piece of jade..."

"I have a mineral here for your appraisal, Senior."

For a moment, Ye Qingfeng’s stall became bustling, but he wasn’t troubled. He simply used his divine sense to scan quickly, identifying what these items were.

However, unfortunately, Ye Qingfeng only took two jade stones. Along with the previous one, a total of three stones showed potential for refining magic artifacts.

Suddenly, Ye Qingfeng’s mind stirred; his divine sense had scanned something good.

Ye Qingfeng walked out of the stall, through the crowd, and approached a young man, saying, "Hello, is the stone around your neck for sale?"

The young martial artist wasn’t very old. Around his neck hung a mineral stone, entirely black, the material unknown.

The young man, though young, was just a low-level war master. Upon seeing Zhong Ming also approach, a flash of fear crossed his face.

He already knew that the peak warriors, Hong Pang and Lin Yan from the Jian Family, had attacked them but hadn’t appeared again.

Meaning, those two peak warriors had been killed by them.

Ye Qingfeng looked pale and weak and couldn’t possibly be a martial artist, so those two were surely slain by the big man.

So the youth was somewhat afraid when seeing Zhong Ming.

"I’m sorry, this mineral is useful to me; I can’t give it to you."

Despite his fear, the young man shook his head and refused.

This stone had a special responsiveness, enhancing his cultivation significantly.

For a martial artist, there was nothing more important than cultivation, so even if the youth was afraid, he still refused.

He didn’t believe they would dare to rob him here.

"I can exchange elixirs with you for it," Ye Qingfeng bluntly stated, determined to acquire the mineral.

"I’m aware your elixirs, better than Scarlet Void Valley’s, are indeed precious and tempting. Alas, I don’t cultivate outer power, so your body refining elixirs are useless to me."

Again, the youth shook his head.

"Is this young man courting death? Hong Pang and Lin Yan perished by their hands, yet he dares refuse; isn’t it courting death?"

"What a pity, this young man seems weak, naive, unwilling to let go. His refusal is self-destructive."

Some martial artists nearby whispered.

Hearing these words, the young man’s expression changed but he stayed silent.

He was just a Basic-level War Master; this mineral was an accidental find, and his talent wasn’t great; advancing to Intermediate War Master hinged on this stone.

"Who said there are only body refining elixirs? This elixir can aid in absorbing spiritual power, speeding up cultivation."

Ye Qingfeng said, taking out a ceramic bottle of a different color from his backpack.

The youth’s eyes lit up, "Really?"

He had heard about Ye Qingfeng’s potent elixirs aiding cultivation significantly.

But he practiced inner strength, making body refining elixirs useless; otherwise, he’d have tried trading the mineral for luck already.

Unexpectedly, he was approached directly.

Ye Qingfeng handed the bottle over, the youth took it, hurriedly opened it, poured out a little, and scratched a tiny amount with his nail, putting it in his mouth.

"It indeed increases spiritual power!" The youth exclaimed in shock.

"What? There’s actually an elixir that aids cultivation?"

"If true, it’s incredibly powerful; I want a bottle, too."

Instantly, the youth’s words caused quite a stir, since most martial artists practiced inner strength.

Suddenly, a large number of martial artists around fervently eyed Ye Qingfeng, pondering how to trade for an inner strength cultivation elixir.

"Ten bottles of this elixir in exchange for your mineral!" Ye Qingfeng stated calmly.

The youth was momentarily stunned; he thought Ye Qingfeng would offer just one bottle, but unexpectedly offered ten.

These elixirs had potent effects, far surpassing those from Scarlet Void Valley; even one bottle was tempting enough to trade.

"You don’t want to?" Ye Qingfeng’s brows slightly furrowed; he didn’t have many of these elixirs, just a dozen bottles.

If the youth demanded more, he’d have to make more, which would be troublesome.
