Chapter 191: 191 How many points do you have?

"Brother Song Tian, do you know where in the Jade Pot Sect’s Outer Sect I can exchange for medicinal materials?"

Yun Xiao turned his head to ask, knowing that compared to Tan Yun, this seasoned Outer Sect talent might have more understanding of the Jade Pot Sect’s Outer Sect.

Sure enough, as soon as Yun Xiao finished speaking, Song Tian took over: "In the Outer Sect of the Jade Pot Sect, there is a ’Mysterious Artifact Hall.’ Inside, there are not only many precious medicinal materials but also many strange and rare items. However, they all require points to exchange!"

By the time he said the last sentence, Song Tian seemed to remember something, patting his chest confidently, and said, "I know Brother Yun Xiao has just entered the Outer Sect and probably don’t have any points, but don’t worry, you can use mine!"

Hearing Song Tian’s words, Tan Yun and the others’ expressions became somewhat strange, and Ling Wan couldn’t help but ask: "Brother Song Tian, how many points do you have?"

Before this, Song Tian was a talent who ranked within the top twenty on the Mortal List. It was only because of bad luck against Feng Hang that he was eliminated in the first round of the Outer Sect competition, but he believed that the points he had from the Jade Pot Sect would definitely give these newcomers a big shock.

"Not many, just over a thousand points, which could exchange for a lot, even if it’s for Mortal Rank Advanced medicinal materials!"

Song Tian’s face revealed a proud smile. Although over a thousand points were not a lot, to the newly advanced Outer Disciples, it indeed seemed like an astronomical figure.

"Over a thousand?"

Hearing this, the expression on Ling Wan and the others’ faces became even more strange. The chubby one, being impatient, immediately blurted out the question: "Brother Song Tian, you may not know what happened in the Task Hall the other day, right?"

In fact, there was no need to ask this question. If Song Tian had known, he wouldn’t have shown such a sense of superiority with just over a thousand points in front of Yun Xiao. At this moment, he also realized that the expressions of the few people around him were somewhat off.

"Task Hall? What happened?"

Song Tian had been in closed-door cultivation aiming for higher levels for the Outer Sect competition the entire time, so he had no knowledge of what had happened that day, nor was he aware of how many points Yun Xiao actually had.

Seeing that Tan Yun and the others all had a watch-the-show expression, Yun Xiao had to speak up, his words understated: "I was lucky enough to complete a Spiritual Rank Low Level task and was rewarded with two thousand points, so... there’s no need for Brother Song Tian to be generous!"

"Spiritual Rank... Low Level task, two thousand... points?"

As soon as Yun Xiao said this, Song Tian’s face instantly became stumped, especially as he clearly sensed that Yun Xiao’s aura was still at the Peak of the Meridian Gathering Realm, which left him dumbfounded.

Song Tian had often come to this small courtyard in the past few days, and he was very familiar with Yun Xiao’s Meridian Qi Cultivation. Did Yun Xiao complete that Spiritual Rank Low Level task before the Outer Sect competition started?

What was Yun Xiao’s cultivation at that time? Song Tian could only guess that at most, it was the Late Stage of the Meridian Gathering Realm. Yet, with such cultivation, he dared to take on a Spiritual Rank Low Level task, and moreover, he had successfully completed it, which completely overturned Song Tian’s understanding of Spiritual Rank Low Level tasks.

If Song Tian knew that when Yun Xiao took and completed that task, his strength was still at the Early Stage of the Meridian Gathering Realm, who knows if his eyeballs would pop out of their sockets and fall to the ground?

Looking at Song Tian’s astonished expression, wide enough to fit a goose egg in his mouth, Tan Yun and the others all found a sense of balance at this moment. When they first learned that Yun Xiao had completed the Spiritual Rank Low Level task, didn’t they also have the same ghost-seeing expressions?

"He’s really a freak!"

In the end, just like Tan Yun and the others, Song Tian also gave Yun Xiao a five-word evaluation. But upon further thought, if Yun Xiao, at the Peak of the Meridian Gathering Realm, could defeat Feng Hang at the Early Stage of the Meridian Rushing Realm, what else was there that this kid couldn’t do?

"Brother Yun Xiao, come with me!"

Having been outdone in the matter of accumulating points, Song Tian’s demeanor was quite embarrassed. He didn’t want to feel the peculiar gazes of Tan Yun and the others in the courtyard any longer, so he turned around and led the way.

Yun Xiao nodded to Ling Wan and the others, and he didn’t mention his purpose for going to the Mysterious Artifact Hall. The sky wasn’t dark yet, and he wanted to take the opportunity to gather the necessary medicinal materials, to enact his next plan.

"Squeak!"

However, just as Yun Xiao was stepping out of the courtyard to follow Song Tian in a certain direction, a familiar sound suddenly entered his ears, followed by a weight on his right shoulder.

"Chi Yan!"

Yun Xiao knew without looking who it was. He slightly turned his head and, when he sensed the aura of the fiery red little mouse on his right shoulder, he was once again taken aback.

During this time, Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan did not accompany Yun Xiao to the Arena Hall. Firstly, Yun Xiao feared it might cause unnecessary trouble, and secondly, Chi Yan seemed to be in a special state that Yun Xiao didn’t want to disturb.

"Fourth Rank Low Level Peak!"

Yun Xiao took a deep breath of cold air because just a few days ago, Chi Yan was still at the intermediate level of the Fourth Rank Low Level, and he didn’t expect such a significant breakthrough in just a few days.

It is well known that the cultivation speed of Vein Demons cannot be compared with that of humans. In Yun Xiao’s view, for the Fire Cloud Rat to break through to the Fourth Rank Low Level Peak, it would likely need at least a month or even several months.

As for the higher level of Fourth Rank Intermediate, who knows how long that would take? With this thought, Yun Xiao once again marveled at the special Vein Demon race of the Fire Cloud Rat; their bloodline was indeed extraordinary, and their cultivation speed was incomparable to that of ordinary Vein Demons.

"Eh?"

Yun Xiao’s movements naturally also caught the attention of Song Tian ahead. When he turned his head and saw the lazily sprawled fire-red little mouse on Yun Xiao’s right shoulder, he couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

"He’s called Chi Yan, my companion!"

Faced with Song Tian’s amazement, Yun Xiao simply explained without elaborating. And as if to corroborate his words, Chi Yan lazily waved its right forepaw and settled down again.

"Actually, a Fourth Rank Low Level Vein Demon!"

Although Song Tian was not a Meridian Refining Master, at such a close distance, he could still sense the terrifying aura emanating faintly from Chi Yan’s body, causing him to draw a breath of cool air.

Vein Demons cultivate with difficulty, so within the same rank, human cultivators are simply no match for them. From this fire-red mouse, Song Tian could clearly sense an oppressive force.

Moreover, the Fire Cloud Rat had a rich Fire Attribute aura. When a scorching heat subtly burst from Chi Yan, Song Tian promptly shifted his gaze elsewhere, as if afraid his own look might anger the little creature.

"Who exactly is this Yun Xiao disciple?"

Song Tian walked on, his mind filled with numerous thoughts. As he knew, the Vein Demon race has always been extremely proud and would never willingly become pets to humans, let alone be driven by them.

Especially some powerful Vein Demons, their pride is many times stronger than that of humans. But now, seeing the state of that Fourth Rank Low Level Vein Demon, which clearly showed great attachment to Yun Xiao, Song Tian was totally puzzled.

In the Xuanyue Empire, only powerful forces like the Royal Family or the Jade Pot Sect had the means to forcefully tame some Low Rank Vein Demons, such as the Flying Beast Pulse Demon Wolf Hawk.

But Song Tian had never heard of a Vein Demon with a stronger Demon Meridian Qi being so obedient to a Low Rank human cultivator. This again refreshed Song Tian’s perception of Yun Xiao. The secrets of this mysterious youth were endless and overwhelming.

The two were moving quickly, and after about thirty minutes, a special large hall appeared in front of Yun Xiao. Observing the unique color of this hall, he pondered thoughtfully.

While the architectural structure of this hall was no different from ordinary halls, what made Yun Xiao feel strange was that the first floor of the hall was pitch-black, while the second floor was emerald green. The two colors were distinct, like water not offending river water.

Seeing Yun Xiao’s puzzled expression, Song Tian by his side explained: "That is the Mysterious Artifact Hall of the Jade Pot Sect’s Outer Sect. The first floor contains ordinary Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or ingredients for refining Elixirs; while the second floor mainly consists of toxic items, and even touching some things could cause a person to be poisoned to death."

Song Tian’s initial tone was rather calm, but as he continued, his voice contained a note of solemnity and fear, apparently quite unnerved by the rumors of the deadly toxins on the second floor of the Mysterious Artifact Hall.

"So that’s how it is!"

Hearing Song Tian’s explanation, Yun Xiao also understood, inwardly remarking that the rivalry between the Medical Pulse and Poison Vein within the Jade Pot Sect was indeed ubiquitous.

The Mysterious Artifact Hall was clearly an important location for the Jade Pot Sect. It seemed that neither the Medical nor the Poison departments wanted to relent, resulting in the hall’s peculiar appearance, indicating that neither side got the upper hand.

However, for Yun Xiao, these were not issues. He quickly stepped forward, and within moments, arrived at the front of the Mysterious Artifact Hall.

At the entrance of the hall was a soft chair, on which sat an elder with eyes opening and closing faintly. Yin Xiao focused slightly when seeing the elder, as he had sensed that the elder’s strength was likely not much less than that of Task Hall’s Steward Qin Wang.

Faced with such a powerful figure, Yun Xiao did not dare to be negligent. On seeing him and Song Tian quickly approaching the hall’s entrance, the elder was clearly also alerted by the noise and opened his somewhat cloudy old eyes.

"You want to enter the Mysterious Artifact Hall? Each person must pay an entry fee of ten points!"

The elder seemed experienced in such matters. After making his statement, he reached out his hand. This rule caught Yun Xiao by surprise. He had not even entered the Mysterious Artifact Hall and obtained anything, yet he was already going to lose ten points. Was there really such a regulation?
