Wang Weizhi’s performance is very good!

Instead of heading straight home, Li Yunjing went to Liuyun Market in the Southern Mountain Area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought of visiting it yesterday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Cultivation Realm, markets are always the busiest places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are also the favorite haunts of cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing was no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Liuyun Market was like a small town, much larger than Sunset Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he entered, he saw numerous Outer Disciples bustling around the market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place was no different from markets in the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The free trade zone for Outer Disciples had all sorts of shops selling everything one could need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the market’s main street, Li Yunjing also saw a Yue Ming Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this time, he did not choose to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already quite noticeable, and entering Yue Ming Tower might reveal to the Yu Family that he possessed significant wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instinctively, Li Yunjing did not want others to know his financial situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking around, he spotted the largest, most prominent three-story shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shop was mall-sized, easily ten times larger than the others!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some thought, he walked in, entering the shop’s grand hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he entered, Li Yunjing found himself in a spacious hall the size of a football stadium.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall was full of Outer Disciples, and even some Inner Disciples in blue attire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people surrounded the large and small counters around the hall, browsing the items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Li Yunjing was overwhelmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this still a shop?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why did it look like a supermarket?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who were the people behind this shop?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many Spirit Stones did they make in a day?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been to Sunset Valley Market and Red Sun Valley Market, but he had never seen a shop like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the gaps in the crowd, he saw that each counter was covered with glass domes, clearly displaying various cultivation materials inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were no staff greeting customers either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With so many people, how could the staff keep up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going with the flow, Li Yunjing squeezed through the crowd to browse the cultivation materials in the counters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as he walked, he frowned, never making a purchase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the counters, there were not many top-grade items that met his needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Li Yunjing decided against buying any magical artifacts, elixirs, or finished products.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spent 1,000 Spirit Stones on some talisman paper and beginner materials for artifact refining, alchemy, and array formation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The large quantity of beginner materials for 1,000 Spirit Stones delighted the shop staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing had come to help them clear some inventory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother, be sure to come back if you need more practice materials!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For once, Li Yunjing heard polite words from the staff as he was leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure! Sure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing didn’t mind the staff knowing his purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What else could he do with so many low-tier materials if not for practice?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having bought everything, Li Yunjing returned to Brocade Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gathered with his group members, and the next day, he took over Wei Henian’s shift and immersed himself in work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For fifteen consecutive days, the old man in purple never showed up to see Li Yunjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing was a bit disappointed, thinking his chance to visit the Second Layer was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the last day, just as the sun was setting, the long-absent elder finally appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior! You’ve come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing was overjoyed and respectfully greeted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had faint hope that his matter might be resolved!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? You’ve reached the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder nodded, then his eyes lit up as he surveyed Li Yunjing with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his strength, the elder was astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe! I was lucky to have a breakthrough in cultivation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good lad!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder marveled and could not help but praise him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how capable Li Yunjing was, the elder stroked his long beard and praised him generously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Senior, you understood Unity of Heaven and Man at the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing had no time to bask in pride before being struck down by the elder’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe! Kid, don’t think others are incapable and you’re the best?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think you’re the most impressive one?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder laughed wickedly, speaking meaningfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior! I understand! My recent fast progress has made everything smooth for me, and I seem to have gotten a bit carried away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing’s expression turned solemn, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These past days had been too comfortable, making him somewhat complacent, which was not good at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The path of cultivation was long, and he should continue to be cautious and prudent, treading as if on thin ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how strong one was in the Qi Cultivation Realm, it was merely a foundational state!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this realm, even well-executed attacks by mortals could kill a Qi Cultivation expert in Great Perfection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no joke!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good! It’s great that you can self-reflect and correct yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder saw a reflection of himself in Li Yunjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Young, incredibly talented, and full of confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But back then, he was even more extreme, more prominent and arrogant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rigidity leads to breakage, while pliancy leads to survival!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, he hadn’t understood this principle back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this kid will go further than I did!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this thought, the elder raised his hand, and a letter-like object floated out of his sleeve and flew towards Li Yunjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly recalling unhappy memories, the elder gave a brief explanation and then left with staggering steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This senior seems to be troubled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the elder’s back, Li Yunjing frowned, as if something dawned on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sigh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sigh, Li Yunjing took the letter and went back to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what the elder’s troubles were, Li Yunjing was in no position to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking too much about it would only add more worries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to sleep and recharge, ready for tomorrow’s visit to the Scripture Pavilion’s Second Layer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Buzz buzz buzz...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm? Who could it be?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter who sent a message, Li Yunjing would look at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every message cost Spirit Stones!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would send a message without a good reason?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meet me at Guest Welcoming Peak the day after tomorrow. We’re heading to Myriad Swords Sect!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading the words on the Myriad Li Communication Talisman, Li Yunjing fell into deep thought. Are we leaving so soon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lv Ruoxi worked efficiently!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Miss Yu Yunyi fail to settle things?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why has there been no news?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Li Yunjing had guessed right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The annual auditing was extremely troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Members of major clans chose to avoid suspicion and refrained from personally involving themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Yunyi had approached her elders in the Yu Family to discuss her idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the elders immediately discouraged her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yu Family would not participate, or be proactive in, auditing matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The subject was too sensitive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was something the Yu Family avoided at all costs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no other options, Yu Yunyi’s plan fell apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a clear plan, Li Yunjing sent a message confirming his understanding, and then he fell into a deep sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next day, Li Yunjing arrived at the Scripture Pavilion and met Yan Dingzhi to handle the shift change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Li, why the rush today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if sensing Li Yunjing’s eagerness, Yan Dingzhi asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing chuckled, sharing his plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Yan Dingzhi was already shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing had such formidable capabilities?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an Outer Disciple, he had the right to read books on the Second Layer of the Scripture Pavilion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he even human?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Comparing oneself to others really was disheartening!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Dingzhi had been on duty much longer than Li Yunjing—almost three years—yet he had never set foot in the Second Layer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing had been here for just a few months, three or four at most?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap between them was enormous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Dingzhi’s heart brimmed with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, I’d better get going then!
