My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Chapter 40 Encircling and Capturing the Witch God Sect

"However, it's agreed that you will cover the cost of the materials yourself."Niu Gai, counting on his fingers, said, "Fifty-year-old Purple Gold Bamboo, plus other rare materials, will cost at least fifty taels."

"How much?!"

Chen Sansi gasped in shock.

"Did you think mutant Purple Gold Bamboo was easy to find?"

Niu Gai bluntly stated, "Actually, if you ask me, a six or seven stone bow would suffice. If there's really a war and you have a Crossbow Cart, why bother?"

"Keep the tiger bone here for now."

Chen Sansi didn't plan to change his decision, "When I get the Exotic Beast Tendon, you can make the bow."

It looked like he really needed to find a way to get that White Deer.

Exotic Beasts were rare and costly; acquiring the White Deer would ensure he wouldn't lack the fifty taels for materials.

After parting with the craftsman, Chen Sansi returned to the barracks.

After morning drills ended, he would routinely patrol the city in the afternoon.

During a break, he went to buy medicinal materials, only to discover that the "Yun He" Medicine Store's sign was dismantled and replaced with "Yunhe."

Was this because the Young Master was completely devoured by his uncle, or what was happening?

"Sir, you weren't here yesterday and are unaware."

Flocking to the commotion, Xu Wencai saw his confusion, "The Young Master of Yunhe Martial Arts Hall recently advanced to the Bone Training Realm and last night he ambushed and killed his uncle, reclaiming his family property."

"Advanced?"

In Chen Sansi's memory, wasn't it said that the Young Master of Yunhe had mediocre talent and might be stuck in the Bone Training Realm for life?

How much time has passed since his uncle usurped the family property, and now, suddenly, he's advanced?

Was he concealing his skills all along, or was there another explanation?

Luckily, Yunhe Medicine Store resumed normal operations and didn't raise the prices despite successfully reclaiming his family property; it still maintained an 80% discount.

"Two preparations of the Replenishing Essence Soup."

Two paper packages tied with rope were handed over, costing fifty taels of silver.

The silver he had earned from the tiger wasn't even warm yet, and most of it had already been spent.

Training in the Martial Arts Hall was indeed… extortionate!

But after all, it was an investment in himself; he couldn't be stingy.

After buying the medicine, it was also time to switch shifts and return to camp.

"Mr. Xu."

Chen Sansi found the old scholar, "Do you have books that record exotic and rare beasts?"

"Yes!"

Xu Wencai hurriedly

At the Martial Arts Arena.

Having just consumed a bowl of Replenishing Essence Soup, Chen Sansi felt every pore in his body heating up.

The effect of the Replenishing Essence Soup was twice that of Blood Replenishing Soup.

He cupped his fists and said, "Xu Flag Officer, today I would like to trouble you to exert your full strength."

"Full strength?"

Holding a saber, Xu Bin was momentarily stunned, "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Chen Sansi nodded.

At the same cultivation level, the opponent had long been unable to put any pressure on him.

"Good!"

Xu Bin did not refuse.

He had wanted to give his all for a while.

Not because he wanted to win, but because, with the same Qi-Blood, this youngster was too terrifying.

In front of the young man, he was like a training dummy, posing no threat at all, relying solely on years of saber technique to avoid utter embarrassment.

"Watch the saber!"

Xu Bin shouted loudly as his Small Success Level Qi-Blood suddenly erupted, charging forward and slashing down with a saber as if a wild wolf was descending from the sky!

Chen Sansi also went all out, with two streams of Qi-Blood condensing on his arms, turning his Lu Ye long spear into a blur of shadows.

"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang—"

The sound of metal clashing.

Xu Bin was astonished to find.

Even with his full strength, he could no longer suppress the young man. The opponent's Blood Refining Mastery, in terms of pure strength, was not inferior to his, not to mention endurance.

Within ten exchanges, Xu Bin's hand that held the saber went numb, his vision blurred, and he began unable to predict from which direction the opponent's long spear would thrust, his lower stance becoming increasingly unstable and chaotic, until he finally fell to the ground.

"Stop, stop, stop! No more fighting!"

He hurriedly shouted.

"Clang!"

Chen Sansi withdrew his spear and stepped forward to help him up: "Much obliged, Brother Bin!"

Majestic Breathing Skill, advantage of long weapons, Gun Movement Swift, strong Qi-Blood...

One advantage after another stacked up, he could indeed easily win against Blood Refining Minor Success.

"You... Are you about to reach Small Success?"

Xu Bin noticed something was amiss, "How many days has it been?"

"Maybe I've taken a lot of supplemental medicine."

Chen Sansi looked at the panel.

[Cultivation Technique: Basics of Spear Technique (Mastery)]

[Progress: (910/1000)]

[Utility: Gun Movement Swift, amazing endurance, strong Qi-Blood]

As he predicted, he would breakthrough to Small Success within half a month.

The silver totaling over several dozen taels was indeed not spent in vain.

"I cannot accompany you in training anymore."

Xu Bin wiped the cold sweat away.

This was too terrifying.

It wasn't a matter of supplemental medicine at all.

If it were him, no matter how much supplemental medicine he took, he couldn't possibly improve at this pace; instead, he might even get poisoned.

This youngster could very well become a Refining Organ Martial Artist, or even higher in his lifetime!

"Brother Bin, you've worked hard, I'll treat you to a drink tonight."

Chen Sansi knew well that sparring was not an easy task.

"Done!" Xu Bin did not refuse.

"Buzz—"

Just as the two were preparing to leave, the assembly call sounded unexpectedly.

An Order Officer, riding a fast horse, sprinted between the military camp and the garrison, his voice loud and clear.

"Three hundred garrison soldiers, assemble!"

"Traces of the Witch God Sect discovered in Po Yang County city, assemble to encircle and suppress, assemble to encircle and suppress—"
