Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 110: Gratitude and Reciprocation

This quality greatly satisfied Yu Yunyi!

This person is definitely not ungrateful!

"No problem! Wang Weizhi’s performance is very good! I will have someone promote him and arrange for him to work at Liuyun Market."

Naturally, Yu Yunyi did not refuse Li Yunjing’s request.

"Thank you, Miss!"

Li Yunjing chuckled lightly; this outcome was to be expected.

However, Yu Yunyi’s prompt agreement still pleased Li Yunjing greatly.

In this way, Li Yunjing could repay his friend’s help.

By entering Yue Ming Tower at Liuyun Market, Wang Weizhi’s income would increase significantly!

This is how one repays a friend’s favor!

After saying goodbye to Yu Yunyi, Li Yunjing left Rising Sun Peak in high spirits.

Whether it was getting closer to Yu Yunyi or helping a friend, both made Li Yunjing content.

The biggest gain of this trip, however, was the opportunity Yu Yunyi gave him to integrate into the top-tier circle.

At this gathering, he got most people’s contact information.

These people were all geniuses, which greatly expanded Li Yunjing’s social network.

From now on, he would have his own circle within the Sect.

If Wei Henian wanted to target him, he would have to think twice now.

At least, Li Yunjing was no longer just a common Outer Disciple to be manipulated easily.

After leaving Rising Sun Peak, it was only afternoon. Instead of heading straight home, Li Yunjing went to Liuyun Market in the Southern Mountain Area.

He had thought of visiting it yesterday.

In the Cultivation Realm, markets are always the busiest places.

They are also the favorite haunts of cultivators.

Li Yunjing was no exception.

This Liuyun Market was like a small town, much larger than Sunset Valley.

As soon as he entered, he saw numerous Outer Disciples bustling around the market.

The place was no different from markets in the outside world.

The free trade zone for Outer Disciples had all sorts of shops selling everything one could need.

On the market’s main street, Li Yunjing also saw a Yue Ming Tower.

However, this time, he did not choose to enter.

He was already quite noticeable, and entering Yue Ming Tower might reveal to the Yu Family that he possessed significant wealth.

Instinctively, Li Yunjing did not want others to know his financial situation.

Looking around, he spotted the largest, most prominent three-story shop.

The shop was mall-sized, easily ten times larger than the others!

After some thought, he walked in, entering the shop’s grand hall.

As soon as he entered, Li Yunjing found himself in a spacious hall the size of a football stadium.

The hall was full of Outer Disciples, and even some Inner Disciples in blue attire. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

These people surrounded the large and small counters around the hall, browsing the items.

For a moment, Li Yunjing was overwhelmed.

Was this still a shop?

Why did it look like a supermarket?

Who were the people behind this shop?

How many Spirit Stones did they make in a day?

Li Yunjing was stunned.

He had been to Sunset Valley Market and Red Sun Valley Market, but he had never seen a shop like this.

Through the gaps in the crowd, he saw that each counter was covered with glass domes, clearly displaying various cultivation materials inside.

There was everything: rare jade, rare medicinal materials, magical artifacts, elixirs, array plates, talismans... It was an all-you-could-wish-for kind of place.

There were no staff greeting customers either.

With so many people, how could the staff keep up?

Going with the flow, Li Yunjing squeezed through the crowd to browse the cultivation materials in the counters.

But as he walked, he frowned, never making a purchase.

Among the counters, there were not many top-grade items that met his needs.

In the end, Li Yunjing decided against buying any magical artifacts, elixirs, or finished products.

He spent 1,000 Spirit Stones on some talisman paper and beginner materials for artifact refining, alchemy, and array formation.

The large quantity of beginner materials for 1,000 Spirit Stones delighted the shop staff.

Li Yunjing had come to help them clear some inventory!

"Senior Brother, be sure to come back if you need more practice materials!"

For once, Li Yunjing heard polite words from the staff as he was leaving.

"Sure! Sure!"

Li Yunjing didn’t mind the staff knowing his purpose.

What else could he do with so many low-tier materials if not for practice?

Having bought everything, Li Yunjing returned to Brocade Peak.

He gathered with his group members, and the next day, he took over Wei Henian’s shift and immersed himself in work.

For fifteen consecutive days, the old man in purple never showed up to see Li Yunjing.

Li Yunjing was a bit disappointed, thinking his chance to visit the Second Layer was gone.

But on the last day, just as the sun was setting, the long-absent elder finally appeared.

"Senior! You’ve come."

Li Yunjing was overjoyed and respectfully greeted him.

He had faint hope that his matter might be resolved!

"Huh? You’ve reached the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer?"

The elder nodded, then his eyes lit up as he surveyed Li Yunjing with surprise.

Even with his strength, the elder was astonished.

"Hehe! I was lucky to have a breakthrough in cultivation."

Li Yunjing smiled with a hint of pride and added, "I comprehended the Unity of Heaven and Man, which helped me reach the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer."

"Good lad!"

The elder marveled and could not help but praise him.

"Remarkable! Remarkable! Back in my days, I only comprehended the Unity of Heaven and Man at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer. You’re just a bit behind me! You have a bright future ahead!"

Seeing how capable Li Yunjing was, the elder stroked his long beard and praised him generously.

"What? Senior, you understood Unity of Heaven and Man at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer?"

Li Yunjing had no time to bask in pride before being struck down by the elder’s words.

"Hehe! Kid, don’t think others are incapable and you’re the best?"

"Do you think you’re the most impressive one?"

The elder laughed wickedly, speaking meaningfully.

"Senior! I understand! My recent fast progress has made everything smooth for me, and I seem to have gotten a bit carried away."

Li Yunjing’s expression turned solemn, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

These past days had been too comfortable, making him somewhat complacent, which was not good at all.

The path of cultivation was long, and he should continue to be cautious and prudent, treading as if on thin ice.

Defeating Leng Yuqian was not worth boasting about. If they had a life-and-death battle, Leng Yuqian wouldn’t hesitate to use a trump card that could kill him!

No matter how strong one was in the Qi Cultivation Realm, it was merely a foundational state!

In this realm, even well-executed attacks by mortals could kill a Qi Cultivation expert in Great Perfection!

This was no joke!

If mortals became close to cultivators as servants and got hold of top-tier poison, they could potentially kill a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer cultivator!

Only by reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm could one reveal divine techniques, have senses beyond ordinary people, and truly become a being of a different world, immune to harm.

"Good! It’s great that you can self-reflect and correct yourself!"

The elder looked at Li Yunjing with a complicated gaze and secretly thought, "If only I had been more cautious and less flamboyant back in the day, I wouldn’t have ended up like this."

The elder saw a reflection of himself in Li Yunjing.

Young, incredibly talented, and full of confidence.

But back then, he was even more extreme, more prominent and arrogant.

"Rigidity leads to breakage, while pliancy leads to survival!"

Unfortunately, he hadn’t understood this principle back then.

Maybe this kid will go further than I did!

With this thought, the elder raised his hand, and a letter-like object floated out of his sleeve and flew towards Li Yunjing.

"Kid, you can go to the Scripture Pavilion’s Second Layer tomorrow! You only have one day, and you need to pay with Spirit Stones or Contribution Points."

Seemingly recalling unhappy memories, the elder gave a brief explanation and then left with staggering steps.

"This senior seems to be troubled."

Watching the elder’s back, Li Yunjing frowned, as if something dawned on him.

"Sigh..."

With a sigh, Li Yunjing took the letter and went back to rest.

No matter what the elder’s troubles were, Li Yunjing was in no position to help.

Thinking too much about it would only add more worries.

Better to sleep and recharge, ready for tomorrow’s visit to the Scripture Pavilion’s Second Layer.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Just as Li Yunjing returned to his temporary residence in the rear mountain and lay on his bed to sleep, his Communication Talisman started buzzing.

"Hmm? Who could it be?"

No matter who sent a message, Li Yunjing would look at it.

Every message cost Spirit Stones!

Who would send a message without a good reason?

"Meet me at Guest Welcoming Peak the day after tomorrow. We’re heading to Myriad Swords Sect!"

Reading the words on the Myriad Li Communication Talisman, Li Yunjing fell into deep thought. Are we leaving so soon?

Lv Ruoxi worked efficiently!

Did Miss Yu Yunyi fail to settle things?

Why has there been no news?

In fact, Li Yunjing had guessed right.

The annual auditing was extremely troublesome.

Members of major clans chose to avoid suspicion and refrained from personally involving themselves.

Yu Yunyi had approached her elders in the Yu Family to discuss her idea.

But the elders immediately discouraged her.

The Yu Family would not participate, or be proactive in, auditing matters.

The subject was too sensitive.

It was something the Yu Family avoided at all costs.

With no other options, Yu Yunyi’s plan fell apart.

"Since Miss Yu Yunyi hasn’t contacted me, it must have fallen through. I can’t ask! I should follow Lv Ruoxi, buy some decent items, and host a banquet for Miss Yu Yunyi upon my return."

With a clear plan, Li Yunjing sent a message confirming his understanding, and then he fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next day, Li Yunjing arrived at the Scripture Pavilion and met Yan Dingzhi to handle the shift change.

"Brother Li, why the rush today?"

As if sensing Li Yunjing’s eagerness, Yan Dingzhi asked curiously.

"Hehe! I’m heading to the Second Layer of the Scripture Pavilion soon to gain some insights. I have only one day, can’t waste it!"

Li Yunjing chuckled, sharing his plan.

"What!"

Yan Dingzhi’s eyes widened. He stared at Li Yunjing for a long time before reacting and urging him, "Then you’d better hurry! I’ve got everything here!"

Inside, Yan Dingzhi was already shocked.

Li Yunjing had such formidable capabilities?

As an Outer Disciple, he had the right to read books on the Second Layer of the Scripture Pavilion!

Was he even human?

Comparing oneself to others really was disheartening!

Yan Dingzhi had been on duty much longer than Li Yunjing—almost three years—yet he had never set foot in the Second Layer!

Li Yunjing had been here for just a few months, three or four at most?

The gap between them was enormous.

Yan Dingzhi’s heart brimmed with envy.

"Well, I’d better get going then! If there’s any problem, send me a message!"

Li Yunjing’s words clearly revealed his intentions.
