Han Feng became distraught after hearing this, unable to accept the reality for a long time.
Finally, Han Feng left, seemingly lost in thought, slowly walking out of the coffin shop and disappearing into the crowd.
Han Moyu sat in the coffin shop, staring blankly outside.
Xu Ning came out at this moment. "Stop looking. Come here. I have some tasks to assign you!"
Han Moyu quickly got up and followed Xu Ning to the backyard.
Xu Ning handed Han Moyu a thick stack of documents. "This is information on all the sects in the various mountain ranges of the cultivation world."
"The information you gain during your cultivation cannot be wasted. From today onwards, you will familiarize yourself with the information of all the sects in each mountain range. Then, during your cultivation, you will probe into all the secrets and future fortunes of these sects!"
Han Moyu asked, puzzled, "Master, why do I need to probe into the secrets of these sects?"
Xu Ning replied matter-of-factly, "What else can I do with it? Sell it for money!"
Han Moyu was completely dumbfounded. "Sell it for money?"
Xu Ning said, "What else? Let me ask you, do you have spirit stones? Do you have spirit herbs? Do you have pills? Do you have refining materials?"
Han Moyu was stunned, then shook his head. "No!"
Xu Ning said, "That settles it. Cultivation emphasizes wealth, companions, methods, and location, with wealth being the most important. Without money, you can't cultivate anything!"
Han Moyu nodded as if understanding. "I understand, Master. But do we have any channels?"
Xu Ning said, "Yes! I've joined a faction that's quite well-known in the cultivation world. We can sell the information you've gathered through this faction!"
Han Moyu nodded. "Some information can indeed fetch a high price!"
Xu Ning said, "Take a look first. I'll give you something later!"
Han Moyu nodded and began to carefully read the information about the mountain sects that Xu Ning had given him.
Xu Ning then returned to his thatched hut and began setting up a pot to refine a teleportation array.
Currently, all branches of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion contacted Commander Luo Xiu through teleportation arrays, and they needed to replenish them during this period.
Xu Ning planned to refine ten sets this time, just in case.
In the future, Xu Ning also planned to upgrade them to the level that could teleport living beings and people.
In this way, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion could support each other at any time through the teleportation array.
After refining it, Xu Ning took out a set and asked softly, "What grade of teleportation array do I need to be to teleport living beings?"
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
The teleportation array immediately replied, "Legendary Yuan-level, or Top-grade Treasure-level."
Xu Ning frowned and sighed. "If I replace all the teleportation arrays in the entire Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, the materials needed will be enormous!"
When will we be able to upgrade the continent? Resources are running out!
Oh well, let's take it slow! There's plenty of time anyway.
Taking out the array materials, Xu Ning upgraded the teleportation array in his hand to Top-grade Yuan-level, reducing the spirit stone consumption each time by about seventy to eighty percent.
He gave twelve array flags to Luo Xiu and explained the situation.
The other twelve teleportation arrays were handed to Han Moyu upon leaving the house. "These are teleportation arrays I applied for from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion headquarters. From now on, any sect secrets you discover should be submitted to headquarters through this teleportation array for unified processing!"
Han Moyu accepted the teleportation arrays, somewhat confused, and nodded vigorously. "Okay, Master."
Xu Ning then took out a few Snow Crystal Fruits. "Eat them when you have time to digest them. Don't slack off on your martial arts training either!"
Han Moyu felt a warmth in his heart upon seeing the Snow Crystal Fruits in Xu Ning's hand but immediately shook his head. "Master, you've already been very kind to me. I can't accept this!"
Xu Ning directly stuffed them into Han Moyu's hands. "Just take them. Stop being so indecisive!"
Xu Ning had many Snow Crystal Fruits. Apart from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion sometimes requesting some, Xu Ning couldn't eat many of them, so he had saved up a lot.
In addition to requesting Snow Crystal Fruits, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion would occasionally request some high-quality items, but these required contribution points to exchange for, and Xu Ning was responsible for distributing these items.
Holding a pile of Snow Crystal Fruits, Han Moyu's eyes reddened. "Master, you're so good to me!"
Xu Ning said, "You're being so girly. Your cultivation regression is actually easy to solve. As long as your foundation is strong, one strike won't cause your cultivation to regress!"
Han Moyu nodded vigorously. "I know, Master!"
Xu Ning said, "I'll prepare two talismans for you later, as life-saving items!"
Han Moyu said, "I'll listen to Master!"
In the following period, Xu Ning had Luo Xiu purchase a batch of Spirit-grade talisman materials, then upgraded a Thunderfire Talisman and a Defense Talisman to Spirit-grade Divine Rank, and found an opportunity to undergo tribulation.
Xu Ning valued Han Moyu highly, always intending to cultivate him as a core member of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, a future source of wealth.
Xu Ning had also considered the issue of his cultivation regressing and not being able to act freely.
Spirit-grade Divine Rank talismans with no usage limit were the first thing Xu Ning thought of.
With these talismans, only a small amount of spiritual power is needed for unlimited release, making them perfect for Han Moyu.
After returning from his tribulation, Xu Ning didn't rush to upgrade the two talismans to the Yuan level, otherwise Han Moyu would have great difficulty using them. He'd find an opportunity to upgrade them later.
Upon returning to the coffin shop, Xu Ning saw Han Moyu introducing coffins to a customer. Xu Ning glanced up and immediately recognized the customer as a heretical cultivator, specifically a Foundation Establishment stage one.
Without saying much, Xu Ning walked to the table and sat down.
Han Moyu was initially very happy to see his master return, but with a customer present, he didn't have time to talk to Xu Ning.
As they chatted, Han Moyu unconsciously led the customer to the table and sat down.
Han Moyu said, "Sir, may I ask who this coffin is for?"
The customer glanced at Xu Ning, then smiled sinisterly. "It's custom-made for my enemy!"
Han Moyu was taken aback, then forced a smile. "Sir, isn't that inappropriate?"
The customer didn't speak but patted his storage bag, took out a low-grade spirit stone, and placed it on the table. "This should be enough, right?"
Han Moyu dared not speak, subconsciously turning to look at his master with a questioning expression.
Xu Ning, however, remained very calm, nodding gently. "It's enough. Whichever one you like, please take it!"
The evil cultivator, however, wasn't in a hurry but looked at Xu Ning. "I bought this coffin, how can I not put anything inside? Isn't that too insincere?"
Xu Ning's eyes narrowed slightly. "Put something inside? What do you want to put inside?"
The evil cultivator said, "I think it should hold your two corpses!"
Xu Ning laughed upon hearing this. "Couldn't stay in the cultivation world anymore? You actually dare to come to the mortal realm to cause trouble!"
The evil cultivator said, "Aren't you the same?"
Xu Ning shook his head. "We're not!"
The evil cultivator said, "How about this, you tell me the secret to how you can stay in the mortal realm for so long without your cultivation collapsing, and I won't make things difficult for you."
