Yang Che clearly remembered that Liu Yuan had been coveting Leng Feiyun's Foundation Establishment Pill at that time.
So, he had actually been eager to see what a Foundation Establishment Pill, which Qi Refining Cultivators valued the most, looked like.
Unfortunately, the trip to Taiyan Temple deeply affected Yang Che's state of mind, and he didn't remember this matter. Otherwise, he would have opened the Storage Pouches of these two people on the way to or from Taiyan Temple.
At this moment, Yang Che naturally opened Leng Feiyun's Storage Pouch first.
He poured out all the items inside.
His eyes immediately lit up.
There were actually over two hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
This meant Yang Che now had over seven hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
After putting away the Spirit Stones, Yang Che's gaze fell upon a Flying Sword Magical Artifact.
Sword-type Magical Artifacts are commonly used by Cultivators, such as Yang Che's Low-Grade Magical Artifact, the Wandering Cloud Sword, which he received from the Sect.
However, true Flying Swords, like high-quality top-tier Flying Sword Magical Artifacts, are extremely rare.
And the Flying Sword Magical Artifact in front of Yang Che, which belonged to its original owner Leng Feiyun, was actually a top-tier Magical Artifact.
As for whether it was high-quality, Yang Che couldn't tell.
Nevertheless, as a top-tier Magical Artifact, this Flying Sword was worth at least several hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
Yang Che tried to control this Flying Sword using the same method he used to control the Flying Fire Needles, and he was delighted to find that it was completely feasible.
However, the Divine Sense and magical power consumed by the Flying Sword Magical Artifact were far greater than those consumed by the Flying Fire Needles.
Yang Che practiced controlling the Flying Sword with great interest.
After half an hour, he was already adept at using it. At the same time, he suddenly thought, what would be the power if he used a Flying Sword Magical Artifact to set up the 'Tai Xuan Hidden Light Formation'?
"It seems I need to pay more attention to better Flying Sword Magical Artifacts in the future. I'll gather thirty-six of them and try to see how the power of the Tai Xuan Hidden Light Formation differs."
Yang Che muttered to himself, put away the Flying Sword, and then looked at dozens of Talismans.
Most of them were Elementary Low-Grade and Elementary Intermediate-Grade Talismans. There was only one Elementary High-Grade Talisman, and it was even a precious defensive Talisman.
However, this time, Yang Che's luck was not as good as before; he couldn't find the corresponding incantation for this Talisman in the 'Five Elements Incantation Fragment'.
Yang Che now had some Spirit Stones, and he decided to go to the two major markets later to acquire a copy of the 'Five Elements Incantation Compendium'.
Finally, Yang Che's fervent gaze rested on a black sandalwood brocade box.
Opening the brocade box, a strange medicinal fragrance immediately wafted out.
A smooth, lustrous Medicinal Pill the size of a fava bean, emitting a special glow, lay quietly within.
Even though Yang Che had never seen a Foundation Establishment Pill before, he immediately recognized that this Medicinal Pill must be a Foundation Establishment Pill without a doubt.
After carefully putting away the Foundation Establishment Pill, Yang Che didn't find anything else of value, so he opened Liu Yuan's Storage Pouch.
"Huh? Another Foundation Establishment Pill?"
Yang Che actually found another identical sandalwood brocade box.
So, he excitedly opened it to look, and indeed, there was another identical Medicinal Pill inside.
Yang Che quickly put away the Medicinal Pill, and then discovered that Liu Yuan possessed a staggering four hundred plus Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
Not only that, but this guy's Storage Pouch even contained an Intermediate Elementary-Grade offensive Talisman.
This was an Intermediate Spiritual Talisman! Yang Che held the Spiritual Talisman and immediately felt a sense of 'getting rich overnight'.
However, the 'Five Elements Incantation Fragment' still did not contain a corresponding description for this Spiritual Talisman.
Besides this Intermediate Talisman, Yang Che also found dozens of Elementary Talismans.
Then there was also a top-tier Magical Artifact 'Flowing Cloud Dagger' and a top-tier defensive Magical Artifact 'Turtle Nether Armor'.
Not only that, Yang Che also unexpectedly found a Black Wind Eagle's innate black feather.
Clearly, Liu Yuan's assets were far more abundant than Leng Feiyun's.
After putting these items into his own Storage Pouch and discarding the Storage Pouches of Liu and Leng, Yang Che disguised himself and, taking advantage of the dim twilight, flew towards 'Tide Listening Market' on his Sophora Leaf Flying Magical Artifact.
Entering different shops, Yang Che first sold all dozens of Elementary Low-Grade Talismans, obtaining over two hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Then, just as he was about to go to 'Cloud Bamboo Workshop' to sell the Magical Artifacts other than the Flying Sword, a Foundation Establishment Stage female Cultivator with a powerful aura suddenly arrived at Tide Listening Market.
This woman wore a dark red long robe with an eye-catching jade belt around her waist. Her face was faintly pale and seemed to lack color.
However, the icy fury that erupted from her eyes, which could practically kill people, made it impossible for Qi Refining Cultivators like them to look directly at her.
The female Cultivator was currently loudly questioning something in a Talisman shop, attracting many Cultivators to stop and watch.
Yang Che noticed that wasn't it one of the shops where he had just sold Talismans?
He vaguely felt a hint of inexplicable unease in his heart, so he quietly left Tide Listening Market and headed straight for Cloud Bamboo Workshop.
Still disguised and with his face covered, he entered different shops and sold both the 'Flowing Cloud Dagger' and the 'Turtle Nether Armor', receiving a total of one thousand two hundred Spirit Stones.
After selling these two Magical Artifacts, as soon as he walked out of the shop, he suddenly saw that sickly Foundation Establishment Stage female Cultivator had also arrived at Cloud Bamboo Workshop.
Yang Che's heart suddenly leaped. He quickly tugged at the mask on his face and quietly walked in another direction.
Behind him, the Foundation Establishment Stage female Cultivator indeed walked into the shop where he had just sold Magical Artifacts.
It was almost an instinct; Yang Che's eyelids instantly twitched violently, feeling as if his back was being stared at by something. He didn't dare to look back, and he ran frantically, plunging into the dense forest, concealing his Qi and concentrating his mind, not daring to even breathe heavily.
Yang Che, who had always been extremely cautious, immediately realized that there might be something wrong with the items from Liu Yuan and Leng Feiyun.
At this moment, he suddenly recalled Liu Yuan's words when he killed him: "How dare you kill me? Do you know who my Master is?"
"It seems these two people's Spiritual Talismans can no longer be used. Judging by this woman's movements, it's highly likely that she's connected to Liu Yuan. I'd better be careful."
Yang Che hid in the mountains for a long time, only quietly sneaking back to Dragon Breath Mountain after nightfall.
As soon as he stepped into Dragon Breath Mountain, he instantly discovered something was amiss.
The mountain was everywhere crawling with a type of poisonous creature that had never appeared before: 'Spotted Toads'.
Besides being extremely poisonous, these creatures also had the ability to detect auras.
Fortunately, Yang Che had some minor research into poisons. He immediately took out a type of medicinal powder he had previously made and sprinkled it on himself.
Thus, wherever he went, the Spotted Toads retreated far away, not daring to approach even an inch.
Upon returning to Tongyou Cave, Yang Che re-examined the 'Small Three Talents Illusion Concealment Array' and the 'Small Reverse Chaos Four Symbols Array', finding that the Formations were intact. Only then did he feel relieved.
He decided that it would be best not to take out the items he obtained from Liu Yuan and Leng Feiyun before reaching Foundation Establishment.
Startled by this Foundation Establishment female Cultivator, Yang Che became even more cautious in his actions.
He now focused solely on improving his cultivation and completely ignored everything else.
Even after returning to Tongyou Cave, Yang Che, like a startled bird, never left his Immortal Cave again.
Several more months passed.
On this day, Yang Che came to the Spiritual Soil and found that the second fruit of the nine-leaf dark yang fruit had already matured. However, this time, he did not immediately pick and eat it.
In fact, the 'Alchemy Notes' stated that if one waited for all the fruits to ripen and then consumed them together, there would be unexpected effects.
Although he had eaten one fruit, Yang Che still decided to wait until the remaining eight fruits matured before picking and consuming them all at once.
Now, several batches of medicinal herbs for refining the Pseudo Overlord Pill had been ripened, and Yang Che was ready to start refining them.
With a thought, the 'Nine Heart Thunder Flame' appeared in Yang Che's palm.
