Chapter 158: Difficult Success (2/2)
”Pill Master Mo, are you okay…” The moment Mo Wuji left his courtyard, an average built simple and honest looking teen was standing outside. This young man was looking at Mo Wuji astonishingly as he was evidently worried about him
Even though Mo Wuji cleaned up the place, his hair and beard were still not tidied up.
”Are you brother Chao?” Mo Wuji hesitated for a while before finally recognising the young man in front of his eyes. It was indeed the brother who was stuck with him on the eighth step back then, Chao Buheng.
Mo Wuji knew that Chao Buheng stayed in District D too but he had no idea where exactly was his residence located at.
Seeing Mo Wuji recognising him, Chao Buheng grinned as he said, ”That’s right, I am indeed Chao Buheng. I’ve noticed that brother Mo had not left your house for a few days and looked really exhausted therefore, I was wondering if anything happened and decided to pay a visit.”
Mo Wuji felt a little touched as he believed that Chao Buheng would be the only person in the entire Heaven Seeking Palace to remember that Mo Wuji had not left his house for a few days. Chao Buheng’s cultivation level was about the same as Mo Wuji but he was a very honest man who constantly undermined himself in front of others. Even towards Mo Wuji who was at the same step as he was, he addressed Mo Wuji as a senior.
”Senior Mo, there will be an elder imparting the Dao techniques at the Technique Hall. If you’re interested, why don’t we head over together?” Chao Buheng asked cautiously.
Mo Wuji could tell from the way Chao Buheng asked that this was probably not the first time he came looking for him.
”Junior Chao, thank you for your invitation. I wish to visit the Immortal Training Tower first and maybe I will head over to the class afterwards,” Mo Wuji’s main priority after concocting 36 bottles of brand new channel opening pills would be to open more meridians instead of listening to some lesson.
Chao Buheng hurried to say, ”Alright, I shall not disturb Senior Mo then.”
Finishing his words, Chao Buheng turned and left as if Mo Wuji would become angry if he was to stay any longer.
Mo Wuji felt sympathetic for Chao Buheng. For a person who was honest, timid and always feeling inferior to others, it would be difficult to achieve anything much in a place like the Heaven Seeking Palace.
Very quickly, Mo Wuji started to self-deprecate for worrying about Chao Buheng as Chao Buheng was probably worried about him too.
…
Heaven Seeking Palace Immortal Training Tower.
Mo Wuji stood in front of the Immortal Training Tower feeling slightly emotional. Half a year ago when he was at the Fringe City’s Immortal Training Tower opening meridians, he was wondering when he will ever be able to visit a real Immortal Training Tower like the one in the Heaven Seeking Palace.
He certainly did not expect himself to be standing in front of the Heaven Seeking Palace’s Immortal Training Tower in less than a year.
Compared to the Fringe City’s replica Immortal Training Tower, the Heaven Seeking Palace’s Immortal Training Tower was the true training tower.
The square located in front of the Immortal Training Tower was spectacular. The many cultivators here each gave out a stronger aura than the previous ones who came before them. Mo Wuji suspected that he was the one with the lowest cultivation level here.
There was a steady stream of cultivators entering to cultivate. Mo Wuji arrived at the receptionist of the Immortal Training Tower, ”May I ask how many spirit stones would two hours in the Lighting Tempering Room cost?”
”Do you wish to use the sect’s contribution points or spirit stones to pay?” The receptionist was a cute female cultivator with a very sweet and pleasant voice.
Mo Wuji only recently entered the sect and even after he entered, he had been fully focused on concocting his channel opening solutions. Where would he have found time to earn contribution points? Now that the receptionist asked, he hurried to answer, ”I want to pay using my spirit stones.”
The female cultivator gave a slight smile, ”Then which Lightning Tempering Room do you wish to use? There are the low grade, intermediate grade, high grade and the supreme grade Lightning Tempering Room.”
Mo Wuji believed that the one he visited at the Fringe City should be a low grade Lightning Tempering Room. Now that both his spiritual will and strength increased tremendously, coupled with the fact that he could even purify a Tier 7 spiritual herb, going to an intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room should not be a problem for him.
”I want the intermediate Lightning Tempering Room,” Mo Wuji said confidently as he chose the intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room.
The female cultivator revealed an adorable smile, ”Intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room would cost 200 Earth grade spirit stones per two hours…”
Mo Wuji could not believe what he heard as he asked suspiciously, ”So expensive?”
Without questioning, Mo Wuji guessed that the second Lightning Tempering Room in the Fringe City should be an intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room. However, the cost there was not even a fraction of the cost here.
The female cultivator kept her smile and said patiently, ”You could choose to use the sect’s contribution points to book the room. You would only need 20 contribution points to spend two hours in the intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room. In fact, there was very little people who use spirit stones to rent the room as the majority used their contribution points instead.”
Earn the contribution points now? Mo Wuji naturally did not want to delay himself from opening more meridians so he took out 2000 Earth grade spirit stones before saying, ”I will first book the room for 20 hours…”
The female cultivator looked suspiciously at Mo Wuji, ”Casually booking the room for 20 hours despite knowing that it is not worth it if you pay by spirit stones. You must be a wealthy owner.”
”May I ask if there are any empty intermediate grade Ice Tempering Room?” Just as the female cultivator said this, a soothing voice sounded beside Mo Wuji.
