294: Washing Spring
Chapter 294: Washing the Filth Spring
"Of course." Wu Xian was noncommittal.
Then, accompanied by Kun Youniang, he arrived outside the Pansi Cave's territory. Seeing that Jing Shen Xiao Huo, the centipede demon, hadn't followed, Wu Xian couldn't help but remind her earnestly, "I always feel that centipede demon is not right. Second Sister-in-law, you must be wary of him, lest you fall into his trap."
"What are you talking about? Xiao Wugong respects this Empress greatly." Kun Youniang was stunned.
"No, no, no," Wu Xian shook his head and said, "What I'm worried about isn't Xiao Wugong, but the strange power in that area."
Kun Youniang's face was startled. "Are you saying that Xiao Wugong might have been tainted by an evil power?"
"In any case, Second Sister-in-law, it's better to be careful. I hope I'm just overthinking it." Wu Xian said meaningfully, "Oh right, deep within the Pansi Cave, there's a pool of water, a natural hot spring that gathers Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, named Washing the Filth Spring. Second Sister-in-law, just enjoy it yourself, and try not to let outsiders use it."
"Hot spring?" Kun Youniang's expression was peculiar.
It's just a hot spring, is it really that precious?
She watched Wu Xian and the other depart.
Back in the Pansi Cave, Kun Youniang couldn't help but secretly observe Xiao Wugong's situation.
He was currently cultivating with great enthusiasm, sitting cross-legged on a mountaintop, and nothing abnormal could be seen for now.
Going deep into the Pansi Cave, she indeed found a steaming underground hot spring. The rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi rushed towards her, making Kun Youniang feel genuinely comfortable from the bottom of her heart.
"This, this, this..." Kun Youniang was secretly shocked. "Are human Domain outposts this good?"
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi within the Pansi Cave had already surprised her greatly; she hadn't expected there to be an even richer place hidden inside.
No wonder the great demons of the Central Fertile Land all liked to occupy human outposts.
Slowly walking into the pool and bathing in the warm spring water, Kun Youniang's beautiful eyes sparkled. "It seems it's not just Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi; it can also perfectly conceal the aura of her Insect World power."
What made it even more unbelievable was that there was a mysterious power in the spring water that was helping her temper her spider silk and Physical Body.
Among them, the tempering effect on the spider silk was the most obvious.
Additionally, when comprehending Wu Xian's scroll concept, the tempering effect would also significantly improve.
Time flowed, and several hours had passed in a blink of an eye.
"Hmm? Why is it gone?"
The nourishment of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was still there, but the mysterious tempering power had been exhausted.
Clearly, this mysterious tempering power was limited and required the Pansi Cave Domain Scroll to absorb power from other worlds and slowly convert it... Yaoyang City, Underworld Club.
When Wu Xian and Zhou Qi returned, they began contacting the association and the Alliance to open the portal to the insect race outpost.
Zhou Qi got a large amount of high-quality insect race materials and happily ran back to research his scroll.
After Wu Xian settled the matter of the outpost passage, he first went to the network department to take a look.
Because the Super Hub was to be set up, the Club's official website and gacha System had to be temporarily maintained, which led to a lot of complaints online.
Of course, it was mainly those netizens addicted to gacha.
He then went to guide his two obedient disciples.
Chen Xu's Asura series and Yao Xueer's Yaksha series had also entered the right track, and some Club members had even taken Asura and Yaksha to the Netherworld Outpost to experience them.
As for the Four Seas Dragon Palace, both of them were doing a decent job now.
Especially Yao Xueer, her drawing of the Third Prince of the East Sea Dragon Palace was quite impressive, and she had even sought suggestions for improvement from Huang Lili and her two sisters.
Female Scroll Masters are good at drawing handsome men.
Although Wu Xian didn't quite understand that kind of female aesthetic, as long as female consumers liked it, that was fine.
Chen Xu, on the other hand, was conceptualizing the First Prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Mo'ang.
Unlike Yao Xueer's soft style, Chen Xu's art style was much more robust, looking full of vigor and spirit.
"Not bad, not bad."
After praising and encouraging the two, he went to find Shifu-jie and Sister Tiao.
On the way, he heard many new members complaining about the recent price increases of various Cultivation materials.
Especially various Spiritual Qi-assisting spiritual liquids, Spirit Medicine, and various spiritual meals.
"Have prices risen sharply?" Wu Xian asked curiously.
"It's not just sharp, the black market prices have almost doubled," a new member complained, "The key is that there's often a shortage. Vice President, why don't you get involved in the Spirit Medicine Domain and improve the lives of our vast number of low-level Cultivators?"
Several new members were excited, their eyes shining with anticipation.
"Yes, Vice President, you are so powerful, you can definitely do it!"
For Wu Xian, Club members always had a strange sense of worship and trust, feeling that nothing could stump Wu Xian.
"I can try to research it." Wu Xian smiled thoughtfully.
"Really?" The members were overjoyed. "Vice President is mighty!"
Wu Xian chuckled and turned to leave.
To be honest, he had always been quite interested in spiritual pharmacology, but he never had the opportunity to delve into it.
And spiritual pharmacology was definitely a big money-making business.
As for the reason for the recent price increase of spiritual medicines, it was obviously also due to the closure of intercity space lines.
In fact, not only spiritual medicines were rising in price, but various goods and materials were also increasing in price. Only food was relatively stable due to the Earth God Temple Farm.
Arriving at Shifu-jie's palace, he heard the two women's laughter from afar.
"What are you two talking about that's so happy?" Wu Xian teased as he entered.
Seeing Wu Xian, the two women's laughter abruptly stopped, and their gazes darted about, probably not saying anything good.
"Well, I'm going home to stay for a few days. If you need anything, just find Sister Qingxuan." Tang Tiaotiao calmly walked out of the palace. "Little Xianzi, do you want to come along?"
Wu Xian asked Shifu-jie with his eyes, and after confirming it was fine, he followed along.
"It's also been a while since I've seen Aunt and Uncle."
Coming out of the Club, he was about to fly on his sword when he saw Sister Tiao dramatically pull out a cool-looking flying machine, comparable to the vehicles in some pay-to-win online games of his previous life, extraordinarily flashy.
On the way to the Tang residence, they inevitably chatted about their recent situations.
Wu Xian's side naturally needed no elaboration; it was mainly Sister Tiao's side.
While the Twelve Heavenly Riders were assembled, they had all been upgraded to gold scrolls, and their combat power was fiercer than the last.
In addition, other series of mechanical creations had also been derived.
"Do you want me to equip you with a set of Twelve Heavenly Riders?" Tang Tiaotiao asked proudly.
"No need." Wu Xian politely declined.
He had so many scrolls he couldn't even use them all. As for the mechanical aspect, having the Super Pillar Bro was enough.
Moreover, as a Scroll Master, it was always more respectable to use one's own works.
"Alright," Tang Tiaotiao pouted, "After we go back this time, it'll be time to prepare for the invitational tournament. Later, I'll have Sister Qingxuan send you all a special invitation. Bring your sisters-in-law and younger sisters with you then.
For this invitational tournament, our Mechanical Dojo has been fully geared up, just waiting for this wave to wipe away our past shame!"
"Sister Tiao's event, I must support it." Wu Xian patted his chest in assurance.
Tang Tiaotiao was satisfied, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly thought of something. "I didn't realize it, but you look so honest and simple on the surface, yet you're actually a little expert at picking up girls?"
...Wu Xian couldn't help but feel awkward.
"I think Sister Lingling's Manjusaka is pretty good," Tang Tiaotiao asked with a smile, "As your most respected and most wise and mighty Sister Tiao, didn't I inspire any scroll ideas in you?"
