With a swift flick of his sleeve, he collected nearly all of the spirit beasts in the grass and the entire chicken farm.

After confirming that nothing was overlooked, he opened the formation and the main gate, his face showing a sheepish smile.

At the door stood an grey-haired old man.

“Master Kang, I apologize. I was in the middle of my cultivation…”

“Ah, Shen my friend, no need for apologies. I was the one who intruded without giving you advanced notice,” the grey-haired old man interrupted with laughter.

“Not at all, not at all, please come in!”

Wang Ba quickly ushered him in.

Master Kang didn’t hesitate. Amid the gaze of several Cultivators from the three major sects that seemed to hold their tongues, he strode in.

The formation quickly closed, and the gate was promptly shut.

Several Cultivators from the three major sects looked at each other, then took out their Sound Transmission Talisman.

…

“Shen my friend, these spirit beasts you’ve raised are superb!”

Stepping into Wang Ba’s residence, Master Kang’s eyes casually swept over about ten Class II middle-grade spirit beasts left in the yard, and he complimented with a clap of his hands.

“Master Kang, you’re too kind. These are just ordinary spirit beasts. They’re only used for training. In the path of spiritual cooking, there are no shortcuts, it’s all about practice.” Wang Ba casually exchanged pleasantries in reply.

With the exposure of his identity and the rise of his status,

He interacted with increasingly higher-ranked Cultivators and gradually discovered that these individuals loved to beat around the bush in their speeches and never directly stated their intentions.

Seemingly, they did so to indicate their status and rank.

Although Wang Ba did not like this method of communication, he had to strive to adapt to it.

Thankfully, he had already interacted with several Golden Core cultivators, and dealing with them was becoming second nature.

After some idle chatting, and when Wang Ba’s impatience started to show, Master Kang finally said with a smile:

“Last time, my friend, as you put it, if I could bring you any of the several Class III spirit materials you specified, you would give me thirty portions of Class II Spirit Chicken Essence. Hehe, I guess I lived up to the task…”

Saying this, he took out a box from his storage ring.

When Wang Ba heard this, his gaze swept over the box. Although he showed no significant expression on his face, his heart couldn’t help but fill with a sense of delight!

The three major sects had extremely tight control over the Class III spirit materials, almost to an infuriating extent.

Even when he had previously attempted to use Class II Spirit Chicken Essence as a bargaining chip to trade with the Golden Core Cultivators of the three major sects, he was directly rejected by their Golden Core Cultivators.

The Golden Core of Xuli Sect even stated outright that unless Wang Ba joined Xuli Sect, the possibility of obtaining Class III spirit materials within the Yan State would be almost impossible.

After weighing his options, Wang Ba eventually gave up on that idea.

The fact that he could survive independently by playing both ends in the three major sects was because he didn’t show preference to any of them.

The reason why he had allowed Wen Yong to take all the quotas for purchasing Spirit Chicken Essence was to avoid any misunderstandings with any of the three major sects.

If he were to join Xuli Sect, considering the sect’s reputation for stripping rogue cultivators to the bone, once he went in, there would be no chance of getting out.

This could be inferred from those rogue cultivators who completely vanished after being included in the Human Pouch.

Inevitably, Wang Ba had no choice but to make a deal with the rogue Golden Core cultivators who came to buy Spirit Chicken Essence.

Compared to Wang Ba, these Cultivators had a much easier time obtaining Class III spirit materials.

Even if it was difficult to obtain these materials in Yan State, they could be acquired from an area outside of it.

Indeed, in less than two months, Master Kang had already found one such item.

Master Kang handed the box directly to Wang Ba.

Without any hesitation, Wang Ba immediately opened the wooden box.

“This is the ‘Emerald Feather Bone’!”

In the box, a few bones covered with tiny emerald feather scales quietly lay on brocade fabric, their emerald light flowing like a trance-inducing dazzle.

“The Emerald Feather Bone can only be found in Huifeng Valley in Yan State. They refused to give it to me even after I begged for a long time. I had to go to the Chu Dynasty, spent over a month and paid a considerable price to personally slay a ‘Green-eyed Red Myna’ before I got it,” Master Kang sighed about the difficulties involved in obtaining it.

Wang Ba understood the other party’s meaning – he was urging him to bring out the Class II Spirit Chicken Essence.

However, Wang Ba was already too excited to care about that. He couldn’t resist looking at Master Kang excitedly and asked, “So, does Master Kang also have a Class III Spirit Beast Inner Core here?”

Green-eyed Red Mynas were Class III lower-grade spirit beasts that usually had Inner Cores.

“That’s correct. Does Shen require it?”

Master Kang immediately noticed Wang Ba’s intentions and said: “I’m more than happy to give the Inner Core to you, my friend, but it’s rarely found in the market, and it’s even more expensive than the Emerald Feather Bone…”

“I am willing to offer another fifty potions.”

Wang Ba did not hesitate at all.

“Deal! It’s settled then!”

Master Kang was instantly overjoyed.

A total of eighty portions of Class II Spirit Chicken Essence was comparable to some lower middle-grade Class III elixirs.

For him, a rogue cultivator without much power, obtaining an elixir that could improve a Golden Core Cultivator was much more difficult than during the Foundation Establishment stage.

It was because the higher the level, the scarcer the resources were.

Class III resources and above were either monopolized by local sect or controlled by the royal family of Chu Dynasty.

For rogue cultivators to make a name for themselves they had to serve as beasts of burden for these two groups.

Otherwise, they had to go to Qi, Yan, or Jin and try their luck there.
