Chapter 391: Chapter 392: This Bathhouse Can Enhance Cultivation Level

All the cultivators soaked in the bathhouse, their eyes half-closed, savoring the warmth emanating from the bathhouse while enjoying the sight of the busy, large, and white figures that made them exceptionally comfortable.

However, it didn’t take long for them to realize something was amiss. When they had first entered the bathhouse, their attention was entirely on Yang Huan.

But as their minds settled down, they suddenly noticed an increase in the Spiritual Power within their Dantian.

This slight increase was not to be underestimated—if it had been during regular cultivation, it would have taken several days at least, but now it had increased just by soaking in the bathhouse for a while.

“I suddenly discovered that the Spiritual Power in my Dantian has increased. Is this an illusion?”

“Why do I feel stronger than before?”

“Brother, you’re not mistaken, I also feel that my cultivation level has grown stronger!”

“It is… it’s because of this bathhouse. Soaking here can actually improve our cultivation levels!”

“Young Master Li really didn’t deceive us. This bathhouse truly can increase cultivation levels!”

“Good heavens, what kind of Heaven and Earth Treasures were used to create this? That bigwig is actually willing to let us lowlives use such a thing. That’s too generous!”

“The efficacy of this is many times stronger than those Great Sect’s Spiritual Springs. Not to mention ten top-grade Spirit Stones, even a hundred or a thousand would not be considered expensive!”

“Young Master Li is trying to benefit the frontier. Such breadth of mind and vision are beyond our comprehension. Let’s earnestly cultivate and not let down Young Master Li’s kindness!”

The cultivators were exhilarated, each concentrating and earnestly experiencing the benefits within the bathhouse.

This thing was too beneficial; just soaking in it could rapidly enhance one’s strength. The effect was indeed startling to hear, and most importantly, from the outside, it just looked like an ordinary bathhouse pool, with no sign of any Heaven and Earth Treasures having been added.

Watching a group of cultivators sincerely entering a meditative state with their eyes closed, Yang Huan couldn’t help but smile slightly. When no one was around just now, she had been truly amazed.

The effects of the bathhouse were too good. If one lay down in it, even without cultivating, their Spiritual Power would keep rising.

Meanwhile, from the third floor of the bathhouse suddenly came ear-piercing shrieks of varying decibels.

Those were cries of excitement upon discovering a treasure. It seemed that the female cultivators upstairs had also awakened from their fantasies about handsome men and realized the bathhouse’s unique qualities.

Downstairs in the quality goods shop, Li Xiaobai’s mouth curved into a smile.

From the exclamations upstairs, it wasn’t hard to deduce that this group of cultivators had been deeply captivated by the bathhouse. There was no doubt that once they’d experienced the taste of soaking in the bathhouse, they would be unable to separate themselves from Huazi from then on.

The quality goods shop complemented Tangneng First-class perfectly – taking a bath would surely mean smoking Huazi, a clever binding sales strategy.

The other cultivators, hearing the exclamations from upstairs, also became curious and went upstairs one after another to discover what was going on.

Needless to say, the outcome was expected. Yang Huan and the handsome young men provided excellent service, bewildering the cultivators until they unknowingly soaked in the bathhouse and were deeply conquered by its powerful effects.

“One at a time, no need to rush – there’s enough for everyone.”

With a casual wave of his hand, Li Xiaobai refilled the empty shelves with Huazi in an instant.

The somewhat crowded crowd settled down in moments, as they had been anxiously watching the dwindling supply of Huazi on the shelves, fearing they wouldn’t be able to get any when their turn came.

Everyone was desperately squeezing their way in, never expecting that Young Master Li would replenish with such large amounts just like that.

Looking at the situation, there was no longer any need to worry about the stock of Huazi.

The queue was orderly, and the cultivators left satisfied with their purchases of Huazi, eager to puff away.

The smile on Li Xiaobai’s face never fell. In just a short time, he had earned at least hundreds of thousands of top-grade Spirit Stones, and this was just the first batch of cultivators transported from the battlefield.

By the time they returned, there would be a second and third batch of cultivators being replaced, and combined with the earnings from Tangneng First-class, just this fourth battlefield alone would probably let me rake in millions of top-grade Spirit Stones.

Afterward, by monopolizing the market of the third battlefield, the revenue would skyrocket in minutes.

“Woof, kid, get your Lord Ergouzi a pack of Huazi too!”

Ergouzi, green with envy, reached for the Huazi on the shelf with one stealthy paw.

Li Xiaobai slapped it away with a smack.

“One top-grade Spirit Stone per pack, fair deal for young and old.”

“Woof, kid, you dare charge Lord Ergouzi’s Spirit Stones!”

“Lord Ergouzi is a supreme existence!”

Ergouzi flew into a rage, and right behind him, Jiang Yi immediately tossed over a small heap of top-grade Spirit Stones.

“Get me and the Saint Heir of my house a hundred packs each!”

Li Xiaobai nodded, thinking this old man was pretty sensible, knowing that buying things costs money, unlike that dumb dog, Ergouzi.

“Woof, Xiaojing, you’re pretty good, Lord Ergouzi will remember you. Once Lord Ergouzi wins this trial, I’ll appoint you as the Chief Protector under Lord Ergouzi!”

Ergouzi’s eyes gleamed as it randomly stuffed the Huazi in front of it into its bag— a hundred packs would be enough for a long time.

It must be said, its Protector really knew how to handle things.

Jiang Yi felt helpless. To be honest, Ergouzi had exceptional talent, but just relying on its intelligence, it clearly wasn’t enough to win this trial.

He saw very clearly that the odds of victory for his Saint Heir all rested on the mysterious and unpredictable Li Xiaobai.

With this powerful god leading the way, Ergouzi might be able to defeat the other Saint Heirs; on its own, it probably couldn’t even make it out of the fourth battlefield.

He had to treat Li Xiaobai like a god, making sure he was comfortable. This was an investment; as long as Ergouzi could win in the end, his position as Ergouzi’s Protector within Fire Qilin Cave would surely soar.

It’s possible that those higher-ups he had to treat with utmost respect before might end up groveling before him.

This was an opportunity that had to be seized.

“Cackle, kid, get me a pack too!”

Ji Wuqing was far from content, with only a pitiful two packs of Huazi in its pocket, which seemed quite meager compared to Jiang Yi’s generous throw.

“One top-grade Spirit Stone per pack, fair deal for young and old.”

Li Xiaobai said indifferently.

“Cackle, kid, this is extortion. I, Wuqing, have never had the habit of paying Spirit Stones for Huazi!”

Ji Wuqing protested discontentedly.

“Woof, what does a busted chicken like you need Huazi for? Giving it to you is a waste of resources; all the Huazi belongs to Lord Ergouzi.”

Ergouzi curled its lips and with another slap of its paw, flipped Ji Wuqing over, pinning and rubbing it against the ground.

For a moment, the small shop was once again a scene of chickens clashing and dogs leaping about.
