Chapter 569 - 179: [Return]
Chapter 179 [Return] (6200)
Three days of transferring Primordial Qi passed quickly. Chen Yan emerged from his cultivation state and stretched his body slightly.
For three days, almost without rest, he transferred Primordial Qi through meditation and cultivation, completing one Circulation after another, continuously infusing Primordial Qi into the Ring.
At this moment, his fingertips pinched the Ring, carefully sensing the Primordial Qi being injected into it and feeling the Ring’s response.
In the depths of his mind, Chen Yan seemed to perceive a faint consciousness within the Ring responding to him.
It was similar to the first time he tried to extract Primordial Qi from the Ring, that resistance-like will.
Now, the faint will within the Ring seemed to be responding to his Primordial Qi. As if with just a thought, he could activate the teleportation.
Chen Yan glanced at the bronze Eight Trigrams plate on the wall; the time scale had not much left.
He contemplated for a moment, sat back down, and performed another Circulation to restore his Primordial Qi to its optimal state.

When the rental time of the cultivation room, totaling three days and three hours, ended, the Spirit Gathering Array in the room stopped immediately, and the Primordial Qi from the Jade Token ceased to pour in.
Chen Yan stood up and stretched his muscles.
Three days of sleeplessness had left him mentally exhausted. His stomach was not hungry, as the Fasting Pill provided by the cultivation room only required him to take one per day to go without eating.
Three days on Fasting Pills, although not hungry, left Chen Yan with a bitter taste in his mouth. To put it bluntly: it was like his mouth was bland enough to kill a bird.
Getting up and leaving the room, he entered the front cavern and settled the bill at the counter with the Brotherhood’s token. Chen Yan walked out of the only cultivation room in Snow Cliff Pass.
He didn’t immediately return to the Brotherhood’s base but continued to wander around the tunnels within the mountain.
The city within Snow Cliff Pass is divided into the Inner City and the Outer City.
The Outer City is built on the mountain’s peak, the flattened area. The immortal military division of Snow Cliff Pass is stationed in the Outer City.
The Inner City, on the other hand, is this underground city carved into the mountain’s belly, where all logistical supplies and trade occurs within this mountain belly.
Chen Yan found the city’s only Alchemy Room, and when he entered, it was still a small cavern. The store had only one middle-aged person sitting inside, and it was unclear whether he was the owner or a clerk, but he was very friendly when Chen Yan entered.
Chen Yan expressed his intention to buy some Elixirs, and the other person immediately smiled and said, "Our Alchemy Room is a branch of ’Ten Immortals Pavilion,’ and all Elixirs are guaranteed with quality and quantity, with no inferior products. You should know the reputation of our Ten Immortals Pavilion, which is one of the Elixir Workshops supplying the Immortal Platform military division!
The Elixirs we sell here are crafted by the stationed Alchemist, and if you need Upper Grade Elixirs that can’t be produced locally, you can pay a deposit, and we can send a message to request supply from the main branch’s Alchemist."
Ten Immortals Pavilion?
Chen Yan noted this name, then smiled and said, "Do you have Demon Spirit Pill?"
"Of course," the middle-aged man smiled, "but there’s no Upper Grade at the moment. We only have Middle Grade Demon Spirit Pill in the store."
With that, he took out a catalog from behind the counter and placed it in front of Chen Yan: "This is the current available stock in our store. If it’s not in the catalog, you can place a deposit, and we can provide it."
Chen Yan took the catalog and looked at it, his expression calm, but he couldn’t help feeling some emotions in his heart.
Since he started cultivating, he had never practiced Alchemy, but he had seen many Elixir names in the Secret Manual.
Only, without having encountered or obtained them.
Now, seeing this catalog in such a Domain Realm’s Alchemy Workshop, he couldn’t help but feel a bit excited for a moment.
Calculating his current entire fortune, this trip’s harvest totaled one thousand six hundred money, and earlier, when he first met Gu Jinjia at Evil Land Mountain, he sold him some items and exchanged them for a few hundred money, all stored in the Storaging Jade Token.
All in all, his current wealth was not much.
Looking at the dazzling catalog with its list of various Spirit Pills and miraculous medicines, some of which he knew had extraordinary efficacy.
However, their prices were far beyond what his more than a thousand money could afford.
He never expected that after coming to the Domain Realm, he would become a poor man...
In the end, Chen Yan only bought some Demon Spirit Pills, a bottle of three pills priced at nine hundred money, but with the Brotherhood’s token discount, he saved one hundred money.
He also replenished a bottle of Bone Pill—this healing Elixir is what Chen Yan currently uses the most and is the most handy. Its utilization rate is high, and he used quite a bit previously, so it’s worth restocking.
Chen Yan then went to a material shop in the city.
Here, various weapon and equipment materials can be purchased, and they can also handle crafting.
However, Chen Yan, being low on funds, couldn’t afford any weapon or equipment. After some thought, he inquired with the shopkeeper about the Evil Spirit Tree wood.
The Evil Spirit Tree, referring to those bizarre trees in the Fierce Beast Race region.
Chen Yan intended to bring this wood back to arrange a Spirit Gathering Array at home. In previous trips back and forth, because there was no Primordial Qi at Evil Land Mountain and he couldn’t use storage equipment, he could only carry the materials back in a hiking bag, so the home Spirit Gathering Array hadn’t yet been completed.
The shop indeed had Evil Spirit Tree wood for sale—this material wasn’t expensive, as Snow Cliff Pass is right at the border, closest to the Fierce Beast Race’s territory, and crossing that frozen lake leads to a vast forest of bizarre trees. The materials are essentially inexhaustible.
