Lu Yu listened to the shopkeeper Liu's nagging about the news of the violent beast uprising while collecting three times the usual amount of pill refining materials into his storage ring.

He couldn't make out the rest, but the actions of the inner disciples of the Shengling Mountain, who were forming hunting teams to go down the mountain, were becoming more frequent.

Shopkeeper Liu even informed him of the speculation from the higher-ups in the Wanling Tower that this violent beast uprising was probably intentional within the Shengling Mountain.

After this violent beast uprising, the inner disciples of the Shengling Mountain would be reshuffled, and those who survived would also gain decent resources.

Coupled with the plummeting prices of goods, the prices of various cultivation materials had also dropped, and the overall strength of the Shengling Mountain was expected to further improve.

But Lu Yu took all of this as mere hearsay, believing that many people would probably die in the process.

After procuring supplies and food, Lu Yu hurried home.

Once he got home, he counted his assets and found that he had slightly increased his wealth. At this moment, he finally saved up two middle-grade spirit stones.

Just the output from last month alone was worth five hundred low-grade spirit stones.

"Now is the opportunity to get rich, we must seize it."

"And, the manipulated violent beast uprising is probably going to last longer than in previous years."

Although the prices of cultivation materials had plummeted, the price of the Six-Eyed Venomous Insect Detoxification Pill that Lu Yu had been longing for had not dropped much. It had just barely fallen below thirty-four middle-grade spirit stones.

But as long as the violent beast uprising continued, Lu Yu still had hope of buying it as soon as possible.

He estimated that in another half a year, perhaps the prices in the market would reach rock bottom.

Ling'er, who had just finished bathing in the side room, pushed open the door and saw her husband rushing into the room.

She was a little puzzled. In the past, when he came back from the market and made money, her husband would always come to the Witch Mountain with her regardless of the time of day or night.

But today, he came back in a hurry and immediately went into the side room to refine the Spirit Beast Pill.

She called out softly with some concern outside the side room, "Husband..."

Lu Yu just smiled and interrupted, "Ling'er, go to the room and cook a pot of spirit meat soup. We'll eat and play poker later."

After speaking, Lu Yu gave her a meaningful smile.

Ling'er, who had been with Lu Yu for some time, gradually understood the new words her husband used and immediately understood what he meant. She blushed and got up to go to the stove.

She looked at the full spirit sheep scorpion that Lu Yu had bought on the stove, and a trace of panic appeared on her face.

At night, the two of them had a big meal. Lu Yu was about to carry his wife to bed when there was a knock on the door.

Since it became known in the market that he was a prolific pill refiner, there had been quite a few cultivators who came to visit and buy the Violent Life Pill.

It used to be rare for anyone to come to the door for two or three years.

"Daoist Zhong?"

Lu Yu's face showed a hint of surprise.

Except for the visit when Zhong Pengyu first moved nearby, he had not contacted him again.

Zhong Pengyu had opened a spirit beast farm, and at this moment, he should be rolling in spirit stones and having many distinguished guests. Why would he come to his farmhouse at night?

But today, Zhong Pengyu looked disheveled, reeking of alcohol, and even the polite smile on his face had disappeared.

"Daoist Lu, can you lend me two bags of Big Food Pills on credit?"

Zhong Pengyu said with a difficult expression.

Lu Yu was even more surprised when he heard this, "Daoist Zhong, your spirit bird lays one or two eggs every day. You shouldn't be short of money to spend, right?"

Zhong Pengyu smiled awkwardly and sighed, "I'm currently raising funds to marry a female cultivator from the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion, and I'm a bit tight on money."

"I hope Daoist Lu can lend me a little on account of our previous acquaintance. Now that you have a wife, I'm sure you can understand what I'm thinking."

"I'm not exaggerating when I say that the female cultivators of the Dragon Phoenix Pavilion are all extraordinary, especially in their knowledge of marital affairs, even..."

As Zhong Pengyu spoke, a trace of reminiscence and intoxication appeared on his face, and he even licked his lips.

Lu Yu's face froze. Longfeng Pavilion is a sect specializing in cultivating both yin and yang energies. Although they are not snobbish and difficult to marry, once married, no one has ever heard of anyone being able to withstand their cultivation.

It is rumored that Longfeng Pavilion even has some resemblance to the Hehuan Demon Sect. For ordinary cultivators to marry Longfeng Pavilion cultivators is no different from digging their own graves.

Only those cultivators who have given up on immortality and wish to die under the pomegranate skirt would do such foolish things.

Seeing Zhong Pengyu's appearance, it was obvious that he was not far from death.

Lu Yu frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhong, I advise you not to pursue a relationship with a female cultivator from Longfeng Pavilion."

"These are two bags of Dashi Pills. I will lend them to you as a token of our acquaintance."

"However, I rely on these to exchange for food and sustain my livelihood, so I don't have any extras."

Zhong Pengyu couldn't help but feel delighted when he borrowed the Dashi Pills. His eyes gleamed with excitement as he repeatedly thanked Lu Yu.

Seeing this, Lu Yu handed over the Dashi Pills, shook his head, and closed the door.

To be able to squeeze a cultivator who runs a spiritual beast farm like this, it must be said that the cultivators of Longfeng Pavilion are indeed skilled.

He wondered if cultivating with a female cultivator could accelerate the improvement of his spiritual roots.

Suddenly, an uncontrollable thought popped into his mind, but he quickly suppressed it.

He didn't dare to provoke those skilled in cultivating both yin and yang.

At this moment, a transmission jade slip from Qin Qingrou in his storage ring suddenly trembled lightly.

Lu Yu infiltrated his divine sense and heard a charming and mocking voice:

"Little Lu, Zhong Pengyu will probably come to you soon to borrow some Ling Beast Pills."

"Don't give them to him. He has gotten involved with a female cultivator from Longfeng Pavilion and is already on the brink of death."

After learning this, Lu Yu was slightly surprised, but he quickly understood. It was likely that Zhong Pengyu had gone to Qin Qingrou to borrow before coming to him.

However, Qin Qingrou's message came a bit too late.

Embarrassed, Lu Yu transmitted his voice, "Sister Qin, I have already lent them to him. We have some acquaintance, and he can still breed offspring of spiritual beasts. As a capable person who runs a spiritual beast farm, he should be able to repay them soon..."

After waiting for a while, Qin Qingrou didn't respond to him.

Lu Yu quickly let go of the matter. He looked at Ling'er, who was charming and alluring on the bed, and his index finger twitched, pouncing on her.

Only a cry of pleasure could be heard from Ling'er, followed by a long silence and repeated pleas for mercy.

...

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Lu Yu had aged a bit, and at this moment, he was still at the second level of refining tools. In the eyes of others, he was a bottom-level cultivator with no hope of immortality.

But only he knew that he still had hope for immortality after obtaining external assistance.

Today, he was riding in Qin Qingrou's carriage, heading to the market.

As soon as he entered Wanling Tower, he didn't rush to display his refining achievements. Instead, he pulled Liu, the shopkeeper, aside and asked in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Liu, do you have any dual cultivation techniques for sale?"

Liu, the shopkeeper, gave Lu Yu a meaningful glance and sighed softly, "No."

Lu Yu immediately showed a disappointed expression. It seemed that he would have to go to a specialized technique shop to purchase such techniques.

However, Liu, the shopkeeper, flipped his hand and took out several jade slips from his storage ring, smirking, "We don't have dual cultivation techniques, but would you be interested in some bedroom techniques from experts?"

"These are my personal collection, and each technique and position is extremely useful."

"What do you think? Interested?" After speaking, Liu, the shopkeeper, raised his cap, revealing his shiny Mediterranean hairstyle, indicating that he had obtained the true transmission from an expert.

Lu Yu was initially delighted, but when he heard that it was Liu, the shopkeeper's personal collection, he became somewhat uneasy.

Wouldn't it be expensive?
