Chapter 1144 Always Prepare for the Worst
Bai Pu approached Li Yan, the Venerable Envoy, hoping to obtain cultivation books on techniques similar to Qi Refining from the upper echelons of the Gaia Group.

The Gaia Group's Silver Heart branch is now giving Bai Pu the green light, offering him a wide selection of advanced energy cultivation books from its inventory.

However, having heard that Bai Pu had already cultivated the Qi-based skills of the Wilderness World, Venerable Li Yan shook his head regretfully and said:

“Steel Heart, energy advancement cultivation books from different worlds cannot be fused together. Since you have already chosen the Qi cultivation skill book from the Wilderness World, if you want to fuse it and create a stronger Qi cultivation skill, you can only obtain it from the Wilderness World. Energy advancement skill books from other spirit realm planes are not compatible with your current Qi cultivation skill.”

Bai Pu glanced at the skill books that Envoy Li Yan had displayed.

True Essence Cultivation Scroll, Saintly Battle Qi Cultivation Book, Super Demonic Codex...

It's not that it's weak, but the art style feels completely out of place in this wild and untamed world.

"It seems we still need to go to the Wilderness World to find more Qi cultivation manuals. For example, Dongfang Hong, the city lord of Huai Xi City, should have a collection of Qi cultivation manuals. Also, there should be some family forces similar to Huai Xi City in Bei Mang City, who might be involved in some murder and robbery business..."

Bai Pu didn't resort to murder and robbery in Huai Xi City because Huai Xi City was one of his bases; a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow.

As for Beiman City, which is thousands of miles away, there are not so many concerns.

Moreover, with the gathering of geniuses and the selection of Prince Gaia, such important matters are urgent. Bai Pu can choose a few unruly and wicked leaders from the major families of Beiman City to find books on Qi cultivation skills!

To this end, Bai Pu specifically requested from Envoy Li Yan to exchange for some items used to draw intermediate lord treasure chests, increasing his chances of winning.

Envoy Li Yan readily agreed. She didn't even ask Bai Pu to pay any price. She directly used her Gaia Group merit points to exchange for a batch of gacha items and gave them to Bai Pu.

In the words of Envoy Li Yanzun, this is called investment.

……

Time passed day by day, and two months flew by.

Bai Pu has returned from the desolate world and appeared at the Heavenly Court headquarters.

Upon hearing that Bai Pu had arrived, Li Ling hurried to find him.

"You're finally back... How come you were gone for two months?"

Bai Pu smiled and said, "I triggered two main quests, so I stayed a little longer."

For the past two months, Bai Pu has mainly been active in Beiman City. In the Beiman City area, he has been staking out and killing many members of the powerful families in Beiman City.

According to Han Cun's intelligence, Bai Pu mainly killed members of powerful and wicked families in Beiman City. This way, he felt no guilt when killing them and it did not affect Bai Pu's Dao heart.

Using the gacha items provided by Envoy Li Yan, Bai Pu successfully drew three books of Qi-based skills and also obtained a piece of dark gold leg armor.

Beiman City was thrown into chaos, with all the major families living in fear, especially the scions of those families who were known for their evil deeds, who dared not even leave their homes.

The atmosphere in Beiman City has improved significantly. Not only is it that people no longer pick up lost items on the road and leave their doors unlocked at night, but the oppression of the good and kind has almost disappeared.

Just as the major and minor families of Beiman City joined forces to investigate the frequent disappearances of their members, Bai Pu had already returned to Huaixi City with a full haul.

He cultivated his relationship with the Lord of Dongfang City, raising his reputation in Huaixi City to the Revered level and his personal favorability with the Lord of Dongfang City to the Friend level. Finally, he obtained two more Qi-based skill books from the Lord of Dongfang City's private collection.

Both of these Qi cultivation skill books are of a high quality, on par with the Qi cultivation skill books that the Ye and Lin clans exchange for.

The only pity is that Bai Pu did not obtain the Qi-based skills that the City Lord of the East cultivated himself.

He didn't have any wicked intentions, nor did he target the city lord's sons and nephews.

On one hand, the city lord is not someone to be trifled with; on the other hand, Bai Pu cannot get past his own hurdle.

Bai Pu acquired five more Qi cultivation skill books, bringing the total to eight, including the three he already had. These eight Qi cultivation skill books covered different attributes, including earth, water, fire, and wind, as well as other attributes such as lightning, ice, wood, and metal, and even some relatively rare light and dark attributes.

During his two months in the Wilderness World, Bai Pu had already successfully cultivated three books.

The more advanced the Qi cultivation skill book becomes, the more difficult it is to master.

Fortunately, Bai Pu had originally cultivated Prism-Colored Demonic Battle Qi and was quite experienced in cultivating energy of different attributes. The Battle Qi Seed could also provide some help, which enabled Bai Pu to maintain a relatively fast cultivation speed.

"What happened?"

Bai Pu noticed that Li Ling's expression was somewhat unusual.

"It's about the Heavenly Court Evolvers being bullied in the Dark Land, which I told you about before."

Li Ling said, "Initially, Wen Jiu and his team went to help, but the people who appeared this time were unusually strong, including a mid-level evolved being. Under the overwhelming pressure, Wen Jiu and his team were no match for them and were even injured. Mingyue and Qingyun have already gone."

"A mid-level evolved being has actually appeared in a low-level area of ​​the Black Land?"

Bai Pu frowned.

"It's possible that the other side was also calling for reinforcements, and those intermediate-level evolved beings were the thugs they were called over to," Li Ling guessed.

"That possibility certainly exists. However, we must always be prepared for the worst."

Bai Pu stood up and said, "I need to go there myself. Where is it?"

"In the Mogao Plateau northwest of Lingshu City."

Li Ling looked at Bai Pu with some concern, "What do you mean by the worst-case scenario?"

"I suspect that someone is using the provocation against the Heavenly Court organization as a pretext to actually target me," Bai Pu said as he sent a message to Envoy Li Yan.

He developed paranoia a long time ago.

Although the signs were not obvious, Bai Pu still wanted to play it safe as much as possible.

Having obtained the coordinates of Mogao Mountain Plain, Bai Pu rode the Spirit Road and quickly arrived at the outer city of Ling Shu City. Starting from the northwest city, he stepped into the Black Land and sped towards Mogao Mountain Plain.

……

Mogao Mountain Plain.

The two groups faced off, the atmosphere tense and ready to clash.

In the center of the field, Wu Qingyun stood alone.

When not in Bai Pu's presence, Wu Qingyun reverted to her aloof demeanor, coldly laughing, "A bunch of cowardly cowards, too afraid to even announce their own names. Aren't you targeting the Heavenly Court? Who else wants to come out and fight me again?"

Three intermediate-level evolved beings lay dead in front of Wu Qingyun, each with arrows embedded in their bodies and weak breaths, clearly seriously injured.

The people opposite were filled with envy when they saw the magnificent purple bow in Wu Qingyun's hand.

"You woman, you dare to be so arrogant just because you have a King-level Purple Weapon..."

Just then, an inconspicuous man emerged from the crowd, shouting, "I, 'Songxiang,' have come to meet you!"

 I've been busy lately, so updates have been a bit inconsistent. Today's second update is only 2k words long, sorry about that. I'll try my best to restore consistent updates starting next week.
