the Fu Family, seizing the handle of the \"Laws Association\" exploiting lower-ranking disciples to continually attack Wei Henian among the sect leaders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Henian, having ascended to a true disciple, naturally has his own wings and support from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person is not benevolent either; both sides are embroiled in relentless struggle within the sect's higher echelons, leaving them no time to deal with the likes of Li Yunjing, a minor figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few outer disciples from Yaxiang Garden are in luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong's only thought now is to topple Wei Henian, naturally avoiding any extra trouble by targeting these minor figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Yue Zhouwang, Wang Yun, and the others finally felt relieved after ten days of trepidation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They all sighed inwardly, amazed by Young Master Li's prowess—one move and their troubles were gone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This expenditure of resources was worth it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2000 contribution points to buy peace, truly a great deal!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for their losses, they could only count it as six wasted months!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's undoubtedly better than having nothing at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having witnessed Li Yunjing's might, Yue Zhouwang and Wang Yun ventured to Qiongze Peak several times to invite Li Yunjing for meals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to further cultivate relations with Li Yunjing, deepening their friendship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, seeing Li Yunjing's prowess, Yue Zhouwang and others naturally continued to bet further, seeking to climb these higher branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knows when they might need the help of this \"divinely capable\" young master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Yunjing's first friend within the sect, Ma Xingyuan also reaped the benefits, accompanying him to each feast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time, he enjoyed himself to the fullest, and his already rounded physique seemed even plumper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To entertain Li Yunjing, Ma Xingyuan, and Yue Zhouwang, they spared no effort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yaxiang Garden prepared the best spirit beast flesh, spirit medicine, spirit plants, spirit rice, and spirit wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The quality and taste far surpassed the standard meals provided by the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This allowed Li Yunjing, Ma Xingyuan, and the others to thoroughly enjoy a few feasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, Li Yunjing also brought Hou Boyan along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This first steward of Qiongze Peak might still have some use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seizing the opportunity of Yue Zhouwang and the others' banquet, he sought to win him over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results were surprisingly good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hou Boyan, seeing Li Yunjing thriving in Yaxiang Garden, with seven outer disciples vying for his favor, found Li Yunjing increasingly remarkable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing Li Yunjing's imposing manner, Hou Boyan respected him even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Li Yunjing lived more leisurely and freely on Qiongze Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day, Li Yunjing thought about his empty hands, lacking decent elixirs and magical artifacts besides the sect's standard provisions, and decided to spend his 2000 contribution points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Li Yunjing quietly left Qiongze Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shenxiao Dao Sect established five internal mountain marketplaces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though intended for internal use, external transactions were permissible with Shenxiao Dao Sect's authorization to enter the mountain gate for shopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>External buyers paid standard prices, no different from outside marketplaces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These five markets vary in level, situated between the central main peak and the four surrounding peaks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The western market, located ten miles from the Miscellaneous Hall's main peak, is in Sunset Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Li Yunjing set out to purchase suitable magical artifacts and elixirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing continued along the mountain's stone path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crossing seven or eight peaks, the mountain was filled with ancient trees, lush and green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounded by mist, the infinite beauty stretched endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exploring an immortal marketplace for the first time, Li Yunjing felt thrilled, finding everything delightful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking for nearly two and a half hours, his eyes brightened as he entered Sunset Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, amid the orderly layout, stood exquisite and luxurious pavilions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the valley, disciples came to trade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gray-robed, blue-robed, and green-robed disciples mingled, the majority being blue-robed outer disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed the western Sunset Valley market was catered mainly to Qi Cultivation Realm disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only one cross street ran through the entire valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various shops lined the sides of the cross street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing did not immediately enter any pavilion, instead browsing each shop along the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides sect-established shops, there were also establishments by sect elders, true disciples, stewards, who invested heavily to set up here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing felt overwhelmed, surprised that mere Sunset Valley housed over a hundred shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most shops specialized in alchemy, artifact refining, talismans, arrays, Daoist scriptures, materials, spirit beasts...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each field hosted over ten competing shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, no easy task to run businesses here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With similar shops clustered together, Li Yunjing found it difficult to make a choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing dazed at a street corner, unsure of where to go, he considered stepping into the shops on either side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As such, Li Yunjing wandered, uncertain of his choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This junior, are you looking to buy something? Our Yue Ming Tower has everything; how about coming in to take a look?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, from the fourth-shop front on his left, a blue-robed outer female disciple greeted Li Yunjing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Yue Ming Tower?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing was surprised at first, then thought of the Yu Family from Yue Ming City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could there be a connection between the two?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Li Yunjing paused, turned his gaze, and saw a beautiful woman in light blue robes in his view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was charming, with fair skin and rosy cheeks, her delicate and pretty face impressing him greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Cultivation Realm is indeed unique! Starting with Yu Yunyi, the women here aren't ugly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thought flashed across Li Yunjing's mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then! Let's take a look inside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yunjing's guess was correct; this three-story building indeed belonged to the Yu Family from Yue Ming City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their business primarily dealt in various magical artifacts, elixirs, and the acquisition of low-tier alchemy and artifact refining materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yu Family was famous; whether in the Cultivation Realm or Shenxiao Dao Sect, their alchemy and artifact refining techniques were renowned in the Great Ming Dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yu Family was also powerful enough to secure shop management rights within Shenxiao Dao Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon stepping into Yue Ming Tower, Li Yunjing was promptly greeted by a smiling grey-robed attendant: \"Senior, what do you wish to see? Would you like me to help introduce some items?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1038,"2026-06-09T04:39:26.597Z",1,"novelbin.me","49412db5402e6f60898e5f61f13a02dc1d5b30e71504664425c11a9563e4f881","sect-starting-with-comprehending-thunder-skill-chapter-175","sect-starting-with-comprehending-thunder-skill-chapter-174",1072,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsect-starting-with-comprehending-thunder-skill-cover.jpg"]
