The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

This mission is to deal with the monsters.

Specifically, it is a small village called Qingyun Village, located on the very edge of the Taique Sect's territory. Next to the village is an endless forest, where demonic beasts roam freely, and some of them often break into the village and harm the villagers.

Originally, the Taique Sect had stationed disciples in the village to protect the villagers' safety. However, recently a powerful tiger demon beast has been frequently attacking the village, and even the stationed disciples are having difficulty dealing with it, which is why they sent a request for help to the sect.

This mission was originally assigned by the sect, but Fan Niannian volunteered to take it. It's said that the mission is worth over a thousand points, and if successfully completed, everyone will receive at least a thousand points!

Such a high reward greatly tempted the four people, including Lin Yitang. Senior Brother Wei and Senior Brother Liu exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming with eagerness. Even the usually composed Senior Brother Liu could not hide his excitement at this moment.

Although Song Hang still harbored resentment towards Lin Yitang, he was also drawn to the generous reward. He pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "This mission is dangerous; that tiger monster is not easy to deal with. I hope some people won't hold us back."

Lin Yitang ignored Song Hang's sarcasm and turned to ask Fan Niannian, "Senior sister, is this the total number of points for this mission, or is this the minimum number everyone can get?"

Fan Niannian thought for a moment and replied, "It should be calculated per person, this much for each person. What, Junior Sister, do you have some plans?"

Lin Yitang considered for a moment and tentatively asked, "Then can I invite a few people? They are all sword cultivators and are very strong."

Fan Niannian was overjoyed upon hearing this: "Junior Sister actually knows sword cultivators? That's wonderful! Sword cultivators are invincible among their peers. With their help, this mission is a sure thing!"

Lin Yitang immediately took out his communication jade slip and sent messages to Senior Brother Qin and Junior Brother Zhao, asking them if they were willing to join.

However, shortly after the message was sent, replies were received from both of them. It turned out that they were currently challenging the outer disciples of the main peak, and the scene was so intense that they simply couldn't spare the time.

Lin Yitang could even hear the clanging of swords and the cries of pain from the injured disciples; it sounded quite lively.

She felt a little regretful, but she could understand their choice. After all, for those planning to participate in the disciple competition, fighting against other people was the only way to improve their combat skills, while fighting demonic beasts might not be the best approach.

Lin Yitang told Fan Niannian about the situation. Although Fan Niannian was a little disappointed, she didn't say much. The group packed their things quickly and set off.

According to their plan, they intended to first go to the affiliated Immortal Cultivation City at the foot of Mount Taique to prepare some things at the Immortal Cultivation Market.

The Immortal Cultivation Market is located in the center of Immortal Cultivation City and is shrouded in a powerful barrier. There are dedicated city guards patrolling the city, making it extremely safe.

As the group stepped into the Immortal Cultivation Market, they were immediately captivated by the bustling scene before them. All sorts of shops lined both sides of the street, selling magical treasures, elixirs, and spirit beasts—everything imaginable was available.

The sounds of hawking and bargaining rose and fell, never ceasing. The streets were teeming with pedestrians, while monks gathered in small groups, some stopping to admire the sights, others walking briskly, and still others conversing in hushed tones.

Lin Yitang saw a stall filled with all kinds of spirit rice, some purple, some golden, and some green, all exuding a rich spiritual energy.

Not far away, a crowd had gathered in front of a medicine shop. An elderly man with a white beard sat on a futon, explaining the grades and effects of the medicines to customers. Behind him, a disciple was sweating profusely as he operated the furnace, refining the medicines.

In front of a spirit beast shop, a small, fiery red fox attracted the attention of many female passersby. Before long, it was bought by a wealthy female cultivator dressed in high-class robes.

Lin Yitang couldn't help but feel that this cultivation city was indeed very safe. According to typical novels, such a flamboyant female cultivator would easily be targeted by cultivators who wanted to rob her.

Seeing that the four were watching with great interest, Fan Niannian knew they were all Qi Refining stage disciples who couldn't leave their sect and were genuinely interested in visiting the Immortal Cultivation Market for the first time. She said, "Everyone, let's go to the pill shop and talisman shop first to buy some items we need for battle. Safety first. We can talk about shopping after we've bought what we need. Let's make sure we have enough spirit stones to buy supplies first. If we have extra spirit stones later, we can buy whatever we want."

Upon hearing this, Song Hang snorted disdainfully: "I can make pills and talismans myself, there's no need to buy them."

Lin Yitang had read the original novel and knew that this person still couldn't refine high-grade pills even in the later stages, so she ruthlessly exposed him, saying, "What use are those low-grade pills you refine in battle?"

Song Hang blushed, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes: "What right do you have to talk to me when you can't even refine low-grade pills? You've been cultivating at Danfu Peak for nine years and haven't even mastered the Four Arts. It's laughable."

Lin Yitang shrugged, indifferent. Well, she really didn't know any of the four arts, nor did she have time to learn them.

In the end, Fan Niannian and the other three bought some Rejuvenation Pills and Healing Pills from the alchemy shop. Fan Niannian also specifically said, "You can buy fewer Healing Pills. I have plenty of healing liquid, and I have already mastered the basics of healing techniques."

When it came time to pay, Fan Niannian asked Lin Yitang why she didn't buy anything. Lin Yitang didn't dare say that she only had one hundred low-grade spirit stones and couldn't afford it, and that the Five Cauldrons Cane could restore spiritual energy, so she could only say that she had extra and didn't need them.

Song Hang then said sarcastically, "It's definitely because they don't have spirit stones. When Junior Sister Lin was at Danfu Peak, she was always the one who didn't have any resources and was dirt poor."

Fan Niannian's impression of Song Hang immediately plummeted. She reprimanded him with a stern face, "Senior Brother Song, when we're out and about, we should all look out for each other. What's the point of saying such cold things?"

Song Hang smacked his lips, and seeing that Fan Niannian was truly angry, he had no choice but to quiet down.

At the talisman shop, the group replenished their supplies with some low-grade talismans, such as fireball talismans, thunder talismans, vajra talismans, and swift movement talismans, for use in attack and defense.

This time, Fan Niannian, Senior Brother Wei, and Senior Brother Liu, who knew that Lin Yitang had no spirit stones, all took the initiative to share some of the talismans they had bought with Lin Yitang, so that she could repay them later.

Lin Yitang was touched, knowing that these low-grade pills and talismans were not cheap for a Qi Refining cultivator; a bottle of pills or a single talisman cost dozens of spirit stones. But she also understood that now was not the time to be sentimental, so she simply accepted the talisman and said thank you.

After finishing their shopping, everyone agreed to meet at the market entrance in 15 minutes. Then they dispersed and went to browse the shops that interested them.

Lin Yitang was somewhat interested in spirit rice, so she went to the shop that sold it first.

She picked up a grain of golden spirit rice, examined it closely, and then asked the stall owner, "Why are these spirit rice grains of different colors? And why is the concentration of spiritual energy different?"
