C3000 9th Level of Qi Refining
After Jiang Ting returned to yard # 973, he suddenly realized something. He had forgotten to ask about the deeper meaning of the sudden change in the Scorching Sun Desert, which had given him a generous reward.
He had unknowingly fallen into the trap. He did not know anything about it. It was obviously not good for him.
Unfortunately, he had already left the main hall, so it was not convenient for him to continue asking questions. He could not. . . Go back, could he?
After pondering for a while, Jiang Ting shook his head slightly to suppress his thoughts. No matter what schemes and plots were in front of him, he would use his strength to break them!
He had a lot of Profound Essence Pills in his bag of holding. After consuming them, it should be able to help him break through his cultivation base very quickly. As long as his cultivation base was high enough, he could break through anything with his fist.
Jiang Ting entered a room in the courtyard. Next was a long period of secluded cultivation. It was a bit inconvenient to cultivate in the courtyard.
. . .
The sun rose and the moon fell, and the stars shifted.
In the blink of an eye, three months quietly passed.
"Creak. . . "
The door to the courtyard opened and Jiang Ting slowly walked out. The aura around him had become more profound.
Qi Refining, ninth level!
After three months of continuous bitter cultivation, his cultivation base had successfully risen from the eighth level of Qi Refining to the ninth.
Furthermore, it wasn't at the early stages of the ninth level.
Song An had given him quite a number of Profound Essence Pills. After consuming almost half of the Profound Essence Pills, he had successfully broken through. After breaking through, he did not come out of seclusion. Instead, he continued to cultivate.
Until he used up all of the Profound Essence Pills.
As for the breakthrough to Foundation Establishment. . . Well, for now, it was still very far away. He didn't even see the bottleneck. How much longer would he need to settle down? For now, he didn't know.
"It feels good that I don't have to do any missions. " After a while, Jiang Ting let out a slight sigh and walked towards the Contribution Hall.
En, he was going to receive his salary. It had been three months since he last received it. With his current wealth, the salary of the Purple Frost Sect was nothing. However, no matter how small the mosquitoes were, they were still meat!
With his cultivation at the ninth level of Qi Refining, no one dared to make things difficult for him.
If the Internal Sect didn't come out, the outer sect disciples were all at the Qi Refining stage. The ninth level of Qi Refining. However, it was the peak of the outer circle disciples' cultivation.
He smoothly received three months' worth of salary from the Contribution Hall in one go. . . A total of thirty Spirit Stones!
After that, he did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he went to check his contribution points.
173 contribution points.
Looking at the contribution points, Jiang Ting smiled. "Not bad. "
He remembered that three months ago, he had returned from the Scorching Sun Desert and handed in the congratulatory mission, which gave him a total of 144 contribution points. Now, he had an additional 9 contribution points compared to three months ago.
Did the sect make a mistake?
That was not the case.
That was the most ordinary mission reward from the Purple Frost Sect.
Because of the exchange with Song An, he didn't need to do any missions from now on. Well, strictly speaking, in the mission system of the Purple Frost Sect, there was no outer sect disciple who wouldn't do missions.
The reason why Song An said he would be exempted from the mission was to bribe the Mission Hall. Even if Jiang Ting didn't do the mission, the Mission Hall would record him completing the mission once a month. Of course, it was just to complete the most ordinary mission.
He didn't do anything. He could earn some contribution points every month. . . . Although it wasn't much, if needed, he could exchange it for magic tools, treasures, or Spirit Stones.
Unfortunately, it wouldn't last long. When he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, the outer sect mission naturally had nothing to do with him.
After that, Jiang Ting turned around and left, heading back to the fenced yard. He had come here purely to take a look. Now, he realized that there were indeed no future troubles. Then, he would continue cultivating!
. . .
Another three days later, in the fenced yard No. 973.
"Jiang Ting. " The crisp voice of the green bamboo sounded outside the courtyard.
Jiang Ting, who was still cultivating, quietly opened his eyes.
"Creak. . . " The yard door opened wide.
"The ninth level of Qi Refining?" Green Bamboo entered the courtyard and was overjoyed.
Jiang Ting got up and said, "I was just lucky. . . . Your arm?"
At the end of his words, he deliberately became stunned.
Currently, both of Green Bamboo's arms were intact.
When they were in the desert, one of Green Bamboo's arms had been chopped off by Xiahou Ping's silver scimitar. After that, he had hidden his arm with Green Bamboo all the way back to the Purple Frost Sect. At that time, Green Bamboo had only had one arm.
Now, both of his hands were still intact.
"After I returned, the sect gave me some rewards, and I used a portion of them. My arms were reattached. " Green Bamboo entered the courtyard, and her voice was filled with joy.
It was unknown whether it was the joy of reattaching his arm or the joy of seeing Jiang Ting's cultivation base breakthrough.
Jiang Ting's eyes flashed. . . Reattaching an arm and regrowing an arm was a completely different concept.
When he left the desert, did Green Bamboo take away the severed arm?
After thinking for a while, he shook his head slightly. At that time, he had been paying attention to Xiahou Ping. He had not noticed whether Green Bamboo had taken away the severed arm.
Green Bamboo had already gotten close and grabbed Jiang Ting's hand. "The Herb Gathering Valley will start in half a year. Should we go to the market and buy some talismans or something?"
When Jiang Ting heard this, his flying thoughts instantly turned around. Herb Gathering Valley?
At that time, he did not ask Qi Yang about the exact time the Herb Gathering Valley would open. He only asked Song An about the Dao for about a year.
Even so, Jiang Ting nodded quietly. "Alright. There's a market three hundred miles away. Shall we leave now?"
He was not really short of money right now. With a huge sum of five thousand Spirit Stones, he could buy a lot of good stuff.
Previously, he was thinking of cultivating. Now that Green Bamboo had come to invite him, there was naturally no need for him to reject. It was just nice that he could buy some things that he needed.
The two of them walked out of the courtyard hand in hand and headed out of the Purple Frost Sect.
Since he was exempted from the mission, he would be free at any time and would not plan in the void. He would only be able to go to the market after the mission ended.

Along the way, through their conversation, Jiang Ting found out. . . Although he and Green Bamboo had brought back the information regarding the Scorching Sun Desert, Green Bamboo had a more powerful background than him.
However, in reality, the reward Green Bamboo had received was. . . Far from him.2
If it was a Spirit Stone, Green Bamboo would only receive a reward of around three thousand Spirit Stones.
As for Green Bamboo, she heard from Yin Hanyu that the reason why her reward was so different from Jiang Ting's was because she was injured by Xiahou Ping in a single exchange. In fact, it was all because of Jiang Ting that she was able to come back alive.
Simply put, in the eyes of the sect, although Xiahou Ping was extremely strong, Green Bamboo was no match for him at all. She had lost the face of the sect. If not for the important information she had brought back, she would not have received any rewards at all.
As for how important it was, Yin Hanyu did not tell Green Bamboo. She only told her. . . The name that she had brought back, the accident that had happened in the Scorching Sun Desert, was worthy of the sect's rewards.
The marketplace.
As they chatted, the two of them traversed three hundred kilometers and arrived at the foot of the mountain where the marketplace was located.
Passing through the formation illusion. The small "city" hidden in the belly of the mountain was once again reflected in Jiang Ting's eyes.
The two of them jumped off the "cliff" and quickly entered the city.
Standing on the busy streets, Green Bamboo spoke. "What are we going to buy?"
Jiang Ting thought for a while before he said, "Let's split up and take a look. I'm afraid we have met a lot of opponents during the trip to the Herb Gathering Valley. It will be safer to buy some magic tools. "
Yes, because of the conversations along the way, Jiang Ting knew that Green Bamboo would also enter the Herb Gathering Valley.
