Chapter 79: Younger Brother Chu, What Are You Eating?

Another Blood Robe Warrior at the Seventh Level of True Qi Realm, upon seeing this scene, was instantly terrified. His strength was not much greater than that of the previous Blood Robe Warrior, who had been so easily killed by Chu Jianqiu. If he were to fight Chu Jianqiu, his fate would not be much better.

This Seventh Level True Qi Realm Blood Robe Warrior had no heart for further combat. He forced back the Xuanjian Sect disciple who was fighting him, left the battlefield, and quickly fled.

Chu Jianqiu did not pursue the fleeing Blood Robe Warrior. In front of Yan Junbi and the others, he did not want to reveal too much of his strength.

The other Blood Robe Warriors, seeing this, knew that they could not gain an advantage today. If they continued to fight, they might even risk their lives. They also quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

Yan Junbi and the others, seeing the Blood Robe Warriors flee, did not intend to pursue them. They looked at Chu Jianqiu with complex expressions. If it weren't for Chu Jianqiu, they would have lost at least half of their group today. Even if Yan Junbi and Tan Youxin could escape, they would have to pay a significant price.

No one could have imagined that their lives would ultimately be saved by this waste that everyone looked down upon.

Zhao Gaochi's gaze toward Chu Jianqiu was no longer condescending and arrogant; it now contained a hint of wariness.

Being able to so easily defeat a Seventh Level True Qi Realm Blood Robe Warrior proved that Chu Jianqiu was at least at the peak of the Seventh Level True Qi Realm, or possibly even at the Eighth Level. Zhao Gaochi admitted to himself that he did not have a hundred percent confidence in defeating Chu Jianqiu.

For a Third Level True Qi Realm Warrior to possess such formidable strength was truly a monstrous talent.

The way everyone looked at Chu Jianqiu had subtly changed, not just because of the strength he displayed, but also because of what lay behind that strength.

From the astonishing combat power Chu Jianqiu demonstrated, it was clear that he was not an ordinary Warrior but definitely a Bloodline Warrior. The bloodline he had awakened was certainly no ordinary one, possibly even a Heaven-grade bloodline. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to display such astonishing combat power.

With such remarkable talent, the Xuanjian Sect's higher-ups would not let him go easily. There had been no news of such a new disciple in the Inner Sect recently, so it was likely that Chu Jianqiu was a direct disciple of one of the seven peaks of Xuanjian Sect.

After this intense battle, everyone was greatly exhausted. After the Blood Robe Warriors fled, they did not continue forward but stopped to rest on the spot.

Huang Yisu walked over to Chu Jianqiu and thanked him. If it weren't for Chu Jianqiu's timely assistance, she would have been killed by the Blood Robe Warrior.

Chu Jianqiu waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing, and then found a large rock to sit on.

Huang Yisu followed him, curious about this mysterious young man. She sat next to Chu Jianqiu, wanting to learn more about him.

"May I ask the name of this younger brother? Thank you for your help earlier!" Tan Youxin also walked over, smiling. Chu Jianqiu's potential was worth her friendship.

"Chu Jianqiu," Chu Jianqiu replied coolly. He did not intend to get too involved with these people; there was no significant benefit in befriending them. He answered Tan Youxin because she had not treated him with the same contempt as the others, and he had some goodwill toward her.

Tan Youxin, seeing Chu Jianqiu's cold attitude, did not take it to heart. After all, she had not shown much respect to Chu Jianqiu at first, treating him as a non-entity. His coldness was understandable.

Tan Youxin, seeing Chu Jianqiu's indifferent demeanor, did not continue the conversation. Although Chu Jianqiu had shown remarkable combat power, he still had a gap compared to the top disciples of the Inner Sect. Her willingness to befriend him was already an exception.

With her status in the Xuanjian Sect, everyone actively sought her favor; she did not need to curry favor with anyone.

Yan Junbi, seeing Tan Youxin being friendly to Chu Jianqiu, a shadow of resentment flashed in his eyes, and his gaze toward Chu Jianqiu turned cold.

Chu Jianqiu paid no attention to this, sitting leisurely and eating Qi-Gathering Pills one after another.

Huang Yisu, seeing Chu Jianqiu eating continuously, could not help but ask out of curiosity, "Younger Brother Chu, what are you eating?"

Chu Jianqiu opened his palm, revealing the bag full of Qi-Gathering Pills, and said calmly, "Qi-Gathering Pills!"

Since entering the New Ze Secret Realm, he had been eating Qi-Gathering Pills while traveling. Before entering the secret realm, he had already prepared a large quantity of Qi-Gathering Pills, so he did not have to worry about running out.

After eating Qi-Gathering Pills for several days, he had reached the peak of the Third Level True Qi Realm. In another day or two, he would break through to the Fourth Level.

Huang Yisu, seeing the bag full of Qi-Gathering Pills and Chu Jianqiu eating them as if they were roasted soybeans, was speechless.

This guy must be incredibly wealthy to treat Qi-Gathering Pills like roasted soybeans. Even the top ten disciples of the Xuanjian Sect's Inner Sect could not afford to eat them like this.

Their conversation immediately drew the attention of those resting nearby. Their gazes were filled with envy and jealousy.

They had seen Chu Jianqiu eating continuously on the journey, assuming it was some kind of snack like roasted soybeans. They had looked down on him, thinking that as a Warrior, he was still as gluttonous as a commoner, which was a sign of mediocrity.

Now, knowing that Chu Jianqiu had been eating Qi-Gathering Pills all along, they felt a sense of collapse. Even they, the pride of the Inner Sect, could not afford such extravagance. When did Qi-Gathering Pills become so cheap?

Although Qi-Gathering Pills were not considered extremely valuable resources to them, they were certainly not as cheap as roasted soybeans.

They received only three hundred Qi-Gathering Pills per month, even at the Ninth Level True Qi Realm. Of course, they did not rely solely on the resources allocated by the sect. Each of them took on missions to earn contribution points and obtain cultivation resources.

Otherwise, relying solely on the monthly resources allocated by the sect, it would be impossible to advance in cultivation. The higher the cultivation, the more resources were needed. For them, three hundred Qi-Gathering Pills per month were far from enough.
