The news of Wang Xu becoming an Earth-level martial artist spread across a thousand miles.

All the villages were surprised that Qingfeng Village had produced an Earth-level martial artist.

It's well known that as long as one reaches the Fourth Layer as a martial artist, they can enter Flame Fire Main City to secure a good position.

In Flame Fire Main City, martial artists can receive a substantial salary every month, allowing them to purchase all kinds of cultivation materials to become stronger.

However, this is not possible in the villages.

Therefore, most martial artists who reach the Fourth Layer immediately choose to leave the village and head to Flame Fire Main City.

Only those who achieve nothing in Flame Fire Main City, see little improvement in their realm, and lose hope of advancement will return to the village to peacefully live out their lives.

But now, an Earth-level martial artist has been born in Qingfeng Village.

Earth-level martial artist, not a Mortal Level!

An exalted figure like this, even in Flame Fire Main City, would receive a personal audience with the City Lord.

The village chiefs and other people from the surrounding villages drove their carriages and horses to visit Qingfeng Village.

First, to catch a glimpse of the true face of the Earth-level martial artist.

Small martial artists like them have no right to meet such a grand figure, so they were naturally full of curiosity.

Second, to curry favor with the Earth-level martial artist.

Being an Earth-level martial artist is extraordinary, having already crossed into another realm. A figure like this could influence enormous energy with just a word, so they naturally wanted to win his favor.

However, their hopes were dashed.

"What? The Earth-level martial artist has left?"

"When did he leave? Is it still possible to catch up? I specifically brought Centennial Snow Ginseng from the village, worth over a thousand silver taels!"

"Village Chief Zhou, please accept these small gifts as a token of gratitude from Luke Village!"

"Our Shigu Village has come to pay respects, naturally understanding the etiquette, and hope Village Chief Zhou will accept them, for the sake of face."

"..."

Upon hearing the news of Wang Xu's departure, the surrounding villages, hoping not to return empty-handed, gave their gifts to the village chief instead.

Since the Earth-level martial artist was born in Qingfeng Village, his hometown, if they can't win over the Earth-level martial artist, then they'll win over his hometown. In the future, should anything happen, surely they would lend a hand for the sake of hometown ties, right?

The village chief was overwhelmed with work, while the martial artists of Qingfeng Village couldn't stop smiling.

The ordinary villagers were also full of joy.

The birth of an Earth-level martial artist in Qingfeng Village greatly boosted the village's status, making it the most dazzling among nearby villages.

As members of Qingfeng Village, they naturally basked in the glory, being revered by surrounding villages.

Many women from nearby villages even stated they would only marry a martial arts man from Qingfeng Village.

The emergence of an Earth-level martial artist brought about a drastic change in Qingfeng Village's status.

Meanwhile, Wang Xu, the Earth-level martial artist whom everyone worships and reveres, was flying towards Flame Fire Main City.

Flame Fire Main City is over a thousand miles from Qingfeng Village. Under the pressure of heaven and earth, Wang Xu's speed couldn't compare to before. It took nearly a day on the road before he could vaguely see the outline of Flame Fire Main City.

Flame Fire Main City is grand; the city gate over ten meters high makes everyone appear insignificant before the main city.

As Wang Xu neared Flame Fire Main City, to avoid exposing himself directly, he descended into a dense forest, fully concealing his Earth-level martial artist aura, suppressing it to Mortal Level Seventh Layer.

Wang Xu came to Flame Fire Main City with two objectives.

First, to help Ya Sang's father acquire Yang medicines.

The price of such spirit medicines is very expensive, but having defeated so many martial artist experts, Wang Xu had already saved up a lot of silver taels. The hundred thousand silver banknote from Boss Ao alone was enough to buy a large batch of Yang spirit medicines.

The second objective was to purchase a handy 'Primordial Power Weapon'.

Wang Xu learned about Chaos from You Ji. Most Mortal Level martial artists use iron, refined iron, or refined steel to forge Mortal Iron Weapons.

Although Mortal Iron Weapons can cut through iron like mud, they are useless against a true Earth-level martial artist.

What can be useful against an Earth-level martial artist are Primordial Power Weapons.

Primordial Power Weapons, as the name implies, require the driving of primordial power to use, making them powerful weapons.

Every Primordial Power Weapon originates from the "Giant City," crafted by powerful figures, and is invaluable.

To purchase a Primordial Power Weapon, one must go to a prosperous place like Flame Fire Main City.

Entering Flame Fire Main City.

Wang Xu walked on the bustling streets, his cold gaze slightly restrained, searching for pharmacies, intending to buy Ya Sang's father's Yang medicine first.

Moments later, Wang Xu entered a shop named "Spirit Medicine Pavilion".

"Dear customer, welcome to the Spirit Medicine Pavilion. We have a plethora of rare spirit medicines worth ten thousand silver taels, in a wide variety. What kind of spirit medicine do you need?"

As soon as he entered the store, a man in a long robe quickly approached with a flattering smile.

He is a wealthy master!

The man in the long robe was a martial artist of the Third Layer. When he felt the subtle and deep aura radiating from Wang Xu, his eyes lit up with delight.

Immediately, the man in the long robe stepped forward to carefully introduce the spirit medicines in the Spirit Medicine Pavilion to Wang Xu.

Wang Xu wandered silently in the Spirit Medicine Pavilion. His gaze scanned over various spirit medicines but he couldn't find the ideal Yang medicine he was looking for.

The Spirit Medicine Pavilion had many Yang medicines on display, but most of the rare and valuable kinds were showcased.

These types of Yang medicines often contain extremely concentrated Yang power, which Ya Sang's father, as an ordinary person, definitely couldn't withstand.

"I want 'Fuyang Grass'."

Wang Xu said.

The man in the long robe was taken aback upon hearing this.

Of course, he knew Fuyang Grass; it was just a Ninth Grade spirit medicine, with a price of only fifty taels per plant.

Did he see wrongly?

Though he felt a bit discontent inside, the man in the long robe dared not show it.

"Dear customer, of course, we have Fuyang Grass. How many plants would you like?"

The man in the long robe's smile was very forced. Each plant of Fuyang Grass was only fifty taels, so the commission he could earn was naturally negligible.

"Fifty plants."

Wang Xu said with an expressionless face.

"Fifty plants?!"

The eyes of the man in the long robe suddenly brightened.

Fifty stalks of Fuyang Grass, that's two thousand five hundred silver taels; this time I didn't misjudge, indeed a wealthy patron!

The smile on the long-robed man's face became genuine and radiant, and his voice was full of emotion.

Soon, a white cloth bag containing fifty stalks of Fuyang Grass was clenched in Wang Xu's hand.

Generously taking out two thousand five hundred silver banknotes, the expression on the long-robed man's face became even more radiant.

"Where are there weapons for sale in Flame Fire Main City?"

Wang Xu asked.

"To respond to the guest, at the end of the East City Gate, there is a 'Weapon Pavilion,' the largest weapon shop in Flame Fire Main City; you can go there to purchase weapons."

The long-robed man answered very earnestly.

"Very good."

Wang Xu didn't say much more, waved his hand and threw out a silver banknote, landing in the hand of the long-robed man.

One hundred taels!

One hundred taels may not be much to a Third Layer Martial Artist; just from Wang Xu's transaction earlier, he earned a profit of two hundred fifty taels.

But casually tipping one hundred taels, he truly had never seen before.

The long-robed man was overwhelmed with excitement, repeatedly thanking the departing Wang Xu.

......

"Guest, this is the largest weapon shop in Flame Fire Main City, with all kinds of weapons available. Whatever you need, just give the word!"

As soon as he entered the Weapon Pavilion, a Third Layer Martial Artist similarly approached with a flattering smile, warmly introducing Wang Xu.

"I need a Primordial Power weapon."

"A Primordial Power weapon!"

Upon hearing this, the Third Layer Martial Artist's eyes immediately revealed a look of surprise.

Beside him, lying in a rocking chair, the White Hair elder with closed eyes heard Wang Xu mention a Primordial Power weapon, his eyes suddenly opened, gazing at Wang Xu.

Wang Xu's gaze also flickered over, meeting the White Hair elder's eyes.

"You go attend to the other guests, I will take care of this esteemed guest."

Unexpectedly, the White Hair elder spoke, deciding to personally receive the guest.

The Third Layer Martial Artist was stunned; he knew the background of the White Hair elder - Mortal Level Eighth Layer, a veteran who had guarded the Weapon Pavilion for many years, rarely meeting an equal among the Mortal Level Eighth Layer.

Elder Qiu usually spent most of his days idling in the Weapon Pavilion, lying in the rocking chair for a whole day.

Several Mortal Level Eighth Layer martial artists had come before, and Elder Qiu had not personally attended to them.

Never expected that today, this seemingly unremarkable guest could surprise Elder Qiu, truly astonishing.

"How should I address this guest?"

Elder Qiu was very courteous; he saw Wang Xu's extraordinariness and understood that Wang Xu was by no means as simple as a Mortal Level Seventh Layer appeared to be.

"Wang Xu."

Wang Xu said blandly.

"Young Wang, please follow me upstairs."

Elder Qiu led, taking Wang Xu up to the second floor of the Weapon Pavilion.

Wang Xu was unbothered, unafraid of the other party playing any tricks; strength speaks for itself.

Arriving on the second floor of the Weapon Pavilion, it was noticeably quieter than the first floor.

With a glance, Wang Xu saw orderly rows of iron boxes placed on the open floor in front of him.

The iron boxes shimmered with a cold glow, clearly forged from top-quality steel and cold iron; the boxes alone were worth tens of thousands of taels.

"Young Wang, those are Primordial Power weapons."

Elder Qiu pointed to precisely those iron boxes.

Taking a key from his bosom, Elder Qiu opened the first iron box.

Instantly, a surge of dense Primordial Power burst forth; a Condensing Bow with faint fluorescence lay quietly in the iron box.

"This is a Junior Level Primordial Power weapon, the Condensing Bow. Using it allows the arrows and bow to be simultaneously infused with Primordial Power; if struck, martial artists of the same level of Earth Level will bleed continuously."

Elder Qiu explained.

Afterward, Elder Qiu opened another iron box, inside which lay a longsword breathing white light.

"White Jade Sword, Junior Level Primordial Power weapon, able to refine Primordial Power sword beams, injuring from a distance; even at a range of ten meters, Earth Level martial artists struck by the sword beam would be severely wounded."

Elder Qiu opened each iron box with Wang Xu, introducing the Primordial Power weapons within.

Primordial Power weapons are categorized into Junior Level, Intermediate, Advanced, and Top Level.

The iron boxes contained an entire array of Junior Level Primordial Power weapons.

However, among these Primordial Power weapons, not a single one was suitable for Wang Xu.

Wang Xu practiced the Sword Technique, naturally needing a sword-type Primordial Power weapon; using a sword variant wouldn't allow Wang Xu to fully utilize his true power.

"Young Wang, all the Primordial Power weapons in the Weapon Pavilion are here."

Elder Qiu said, "Today is your good fortune, Young Wang. For the upcoming 'Wind God Hall' auction, we specially transported these Primordial Power weapons from Giant City; if you need, I can sell them to you at the original price."

"You should understand that once these Primordial Power weapons go on auction, their prices will differ from now like heaven and earth."

Wang Xu shook his head.

"These Primordial Power weapons are nice, but none are suitable for me."

"Then what kind of Primordial Power weapon does Young Wang desire?"

Elder Qiu seemed quite interested in Wang Xu, earnestly trying to help him.

"A sword-type Primordial Power weapon."

"Sword-type?"

Elder Qiu pondered briefly, "Yes, of course, we wouldn't be without sword-type Primordial Power weapons at the Weapon Pavilion, but to be frank, Young Wang, the sword-type Primordial Power weapons have already been allocated to the first batch, delivered to Wind God Hall's auction; I'm afraid you'll have to bid at the auction."

"Where is Wind God Hall's auction held?" Wang Xu asked.

"This time, Wind God Hall is hosting the auction at my Flame Fire Main City, naturally holding it in the City Lord's Mansion for formality. If Young Wang doesn't mind, I can take you there."

Elder Qiu smiled.

"Alright, thank you."

Wang Xu's expression remained unchanged, but his tone had softened. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations, monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
