"Fortunately, there's still some time before I can upgrade the Purple Qi Visualization Technique to the fifth level, so I'm not in a hurry."
Ziyue thought to himself as he turned around and headed to the foot of the mountain.
"As for the Internal Refinement Technique … I can only obtain it through the gang's missions."
The Scorching Sun Gang was a gang, so it was naturally impossible for them to cultivate their disciples selflessly.
During the apprenticeship period, because they were young and weak, the gang did not need them to charge and kill, so it was naturally relatively stable.
However, once they became an official disciple, they would immediately be assigned various missions.
If they wanted to obtain cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques, other than the guidance of their master, they could only exchange for them through the gang's missions.
Even the resources needed for daily necessities and cultivation were mostly obtained through missions.
The gang's monthly allowance alone was not enough for a martial artist's consumption.
Of course, Ziyue had naturally mentioned the Internal Refinement Technique to his master before, but Liu Dong clearly believed in a stable and steady cultivation method. He only told him not to bite off more than he could chew, and to raise his strength to the peak of the outer forging first.
As such, he could only suppress it and did not dare to mention it again.
With a leap, Ziyue used the Soaring Cloud Step, and his strength surged downwards, forming a unique driving force. With a light leap, he crossed a distance of several feet. Then, his foot tapped on a step, and he crossed another distance of several feet.
At this moment, his body was stretched out, and he did not move or sway. He was really as light as a swallow, and his speed was even more astonishing.
In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, a figure unhurriedly came from an alley and headed straight for the Heavy Ink Mountain.
"It's that old scholar, the temple attendant of the Heavy Ink Mountain."
Ziyue's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded slightly to him.
The other party also nodded slightly, and then calmly went up the Heavy Ink Mountain.
In the past three years, Ziyue often went up the mountain, and occasionally he would meet the old scholar.
Sometimes, he would want to chat with him, but the other party did not seem to have any intention of befriending him. Often, after a few words, they would part on bad terms.
Therefore, when they met like this, Ziyue only nodded slightly to him as a greeting.
Sometimes, he also felt that this person was a little strange, but because it had nothing to do with him, he did not delve into it.
"Mount Ziyue, your uncle is back today. Come to my house for dinner."
Passing by Southeast Street, he happened to see his aunt setting up a stall. He could hear her shouting from afar.
At that time, Bai Er Niu went to the countryside to hide. After a period of time, Ziyue killed Wu Hao. Naturally, she was safe.
Perhaps it was because of that unforeseen event, but her interest in raising chickens had greatly increased. Now, it had begun to take shape, and she could occasionally make some chickens to sell.
"No, I'm busy today."
Ziyue hurriedly waved his hand.
"Then let's catch a chicken. Your mother was still talking about how delicious my chicken is."
"Forget it … I'm leaving."
Ziyue shook his head and quickened his pace.
Soon, Ziyue arrived at the Scorching Sun Gang's branch. He entered through the main entrance and arrived at a large hall.
"Ziyue, we're all waiting for you here."
Soon, a shout was heard.
Then, Ziyue saw two figures not far away, one old and one young in the gang's inner disciple uniform. The young man was waving at him.
The young man was Qin Shaoping, who had some friendship with Ziyue. He was now at the early stage of external forging and had the strength of external forging skin membrane.
As for the other person, although he was called an old man, he was actually only in his forties. He was an elder in the gang and had already reached the level of external forging. His name was Tong Zhan. Ziyue and Qin Shaoping called him Tong Lao.
Tong Lao had been in the gang for more than 20 years and had rich experience in the Jianghu. Ziyue and Qin Shaoping were newly promoted inner disciples who were arranged to learn from him.
"What's the mission this time?"
Ziyue asked curiously.
"It's a hunting mission.
Pharmacist Xu of the Sky Scorpion Pharmacy was found dead in his home a few days ago. The gang investigated and said that it was the Five Bandits of Long Mountain who killed him.
We have a lot of contribution points this time. Five of the Five Bandits of Long Mountain, 30 contribution points each. "
Qin Shaoping said excitedly.
Contribution points in the gang were almost the same as silver taels.
One contribution point could be exchanged for one tael of silver.
However, contribution points could be exchanged for secret manuals, elixirs, weapons, and so on. If one wanted to buy these things with silver taels, the price would be doubled.
Therefore, all the disciples in the gang valued contribution points.
The Five Bandits of Long Mountain had a total of 150 contribution points, which was not a small number.
Ziyue had seen the exchange list. The Golden Cicada Skill, an internal cultivation method in the gang, was worth 500 contribution points.
"The Five Bandits of Long Mountain have been entrenched in the Long Mountain area all year round. They shouldn't have any dealings with Pharmacist Xu, right?
Moreover, with Pharmacist Xu's status, avenging him shouldn't cost so many contribution points, right? "
Ziyue said curiously.
He had always known that there was a pharmacist in the Scorching Sun Gang's Sky Scorpion Medicine Hall.
The Blood and Qi Pills that the apprentices could receive every month, and the ordinary disciples could exchange for Qi and Qi Pills and Qi Nourishing Pills with contribution points. They were all provided by the Sky Scorpion Medicine Hall.
However, although Pharmacist Xu was a pharmacist, he could only refine the lowest-grade elixirs like Qi and Qi Pills at most. His status in the Sky Scorpion Medicine Hall was not high.
Of course, he was still better than ordinary inner sect disciples.
Pharmacists were naturally sought after and respected by martial artists.
However, with Pharmacist Xu's status, he did not think that the gang would pay such a high price to avenge him.
The Scorching Sun Gang was not a charity.
"It's said that before Pharmacist Xu was killed, Pharmacist Dai happened to give him a Five Direction Medicine Making Secret Manual.
Now that it's been lost, it's obviously been snatched by the Five Bandits of Long Mountain.
The mission also said that if we snatch the manual back, we'll get another 100 contribution points.
As for why Pharmacist Xu is related to the Five Bandits of Long Mountain … It's a long story. "
As he spoke, a cold smile appeared on Elder Tong's face.
"It seems that Pharmacist Xu's wife got together with the third brother of the Five Bandits of Long Mountain and was caught red-handed …"
Qin Shaoping said with a strange expression.
Ziyue touched his nose. He naturally knew what was going to happen next. He could only ask, "Do you know how strong they are?"
"Among the Five Bandits of Long Mountain, it's said that only the eldest brother has officially learned martial arts in the Iron Yi Dojo. I heard that he was an official disciple of the dojo and learned the true teachings.
Later on, for some reason, he quit the dojo and became a bandit.
He shouldn't be weak. He's at the level of external forging of flesh and bones.
Of course, I'll deal with him.
As for the others, even if they have martial arts, they should be much weaker since they were taught by the eldest brother. With your strength, it won't be difficult to deal with them. "
Tong Zhan said confidently.
Ziyue nodded. He knew that Tong Zhan was an experienced man. Since he said so, he must be quite confident. Therefore, he did not hesitate and said directly, "Then let's go. Do you know where they are?"
