Morning arrived and Raven welcomed it with his usual smile completely unaware of the fact that a lady was waiting for him to accept her love and she was actually the daughter of all familiar Elder Mark .
Raven had the habit to carefully plan before acting on every situation . So he considered the pros and cons for hours yesterday night but in the end the most basic solution was only one available . That is to wear a cloak which would hide his body and face and go himself to buy the cores . Actually this idea was the only one possible as Raven had no background anyway which he could use to imply some other methods . But he still did not regret wasting some hours on compiling his thoughts because he could not deny his own extremely careful personality .
In fact Raven had seen many disciples usually walking on the roads wearing hoods to cover their faces so it would not look suspicious even if he wear one while visiting the market because many others did so too . Raven thus wire black attire and departed for the Sect Market in a good mood .
He was still careful to not leave any tracks so he used his Divine Sense to find the most desolate routes and deliberately choose them ignoring the fact that it took him more than ten minutes to complete the walk which would have taken only about two minutes if he had taken the normal route .
The Sect was huge and extremely huge but coincidently Raven's residence area was located in the best area after the Elders Court which was converted to various busy areas inside the Sect like the Pill Hall , Forging Hall , Fragrance Restaurant and of course the Sect Market . Maybe the Sect put great importance on his talent to actually assign him to the residence area where only the most outstanding Inner Disciples could live . Anyway Raven could not care less about them as he was still angry at the Sect Authorities for actually trying to use him .
The Market was actually a huge plaza because Raven could only see innumerable stalls selling different items . There was not even one actual shop , only stalls which took the least space. Raven guessed that the reason of all those stalls must be to ensure enough space for all and most importantly the fact that shops would be more eye catching so they were forbidden. Well it was the truth as people naturally preferred to shop from shops even if they were somewhat more expensive than things which could be bought from stalls . Raven just shrugged these useless thoughts off and stepped inside the Plaza .
Countless loud voices like that of Hawkers greeted him which were annoying to the core. Raven just casually looked at the items displayed on various stalls on the way as he continued walking . There were too many customers like him who were hoods to cover their faces so nobody bothered to take a second look at him .
Raven was disappointed because he spotted countless herbs and some were even spiritual herbs but all of them were noticeably damaged somewhere reducing their value by a lot . Raven gradually understood the reason as he thought that all the disciples must exchange their loot for sect points in the General Pavilion while selling the remaining stuff here . Herbs even damaged were of some value so it would be a waste to just throw them like trash . So this Sect Market was actually a nice to place to earn some good amount of points which getting rid of the useless items .
Raven was glad though because all the beast cores were in good shape and with his acute senses , Raven could feel pure and chaotic energy radiating from them . Practically all the stalls sold some cores but Raven bypassed them because he wanted to find a stall which sold them in bulk especially Level 3 beast cores because Level 2 cores were useless to him and he had more than 40 of them inside his space ring remaining.
Raven planned to not cultivate further for a period of time but it was always better to purchase the cores as soon as possible . They would be safe inside his space ring and not lessen in number with time .
" Hey brother , how many Level 3 cores do you have ? Pill hall will purchase all of them . "
Raven approached a guy who was selling more than 50 Level 3 cores . From his strenght which was only 8th Level of Martial Master Realm , Raven knew that he must have not hunted them himself and was selling them on the behalf of someone else .
" Hehe.. brother actually we are a group of disciples under Senior Long Tian who is a core disciple . You are from Pill Hall ? "
" Yes , I was tasked with purchasing Level 3 cores in bulk . Relax and tell me the actual number . I wont disappoint you because I was personally handed essential funds for the task by Elder . "
Raven managed to borrow the reputation of Pill Hall and even threatened the guy with saying that he was completing mission assigned by Elder . It was common fact that disciples who were personally assigned missions by the Elders , have huge backing and must not be provoked . So Raven decided to fully taken advantage of this unwritten rule and avoid some trouble like disciples assaulting him for the purpose of forcefully threatening him to transpire his sect points. Of course Raven was not afraid of trouble and would even threaten them back but Raven was not willing to reveal his strenght to others for such a small matter which could be solved by a bluff .
" Ahem brother, exactly how many cores do you want to buy ? I have only slightly more than 100 Level 3 cores in stock and would have to ask my brothers to deliver more . "
The stall owner was a natural businessman and discarded all the thoughts of robbing Raven . Raven was glad that his bluff worked and this fact proved to Raven that Elders had more influence inside the Sect then he had imagined before .
Raven had more than 20000 sect points with him and from his knowledge, the Pill Hall could easily come up with this number . So he decided to use all of them up because he had nothing important other than beast cores to buy with them .
" Brother , I was introduced your stall by another Elder of my Pill Hall who talked about your generosity. So I wont try to lie . I was assigned with 20000 points so you decide how many cores you can provide me with them . I wont take others as my task is to buy only Level 3 Beast cores . " Raven smiled and his casual words sparked the light inside the stall owner's eyes .
The Stall owner was extremely quick as he used a communication bead to tell others about Raven's request .
" Brother Long Tian said we can sell you 450 Level 3 cores with 20000 points as the price."
" Hmm.. Okay " Raven casually replied and the transaction was completed in the matter of minutes . Just as Raven had suspected, others from their group had opened more stalls in the same area so they quickly arrived with the extra beast cores .
After looking at the pile of fist sized cores on the table , Raven's eyes shined for an instant but he quickly managed to hide his excitement before others noticed it . Raven was glad that he managed to encounter so many Level 3 cores at once because he knew that unlike Level 2 and below beasts , Level 3 beasts were rarely hunted by the disciples as they were considerably powerful .
Raven casually stored all the cores inside his space ring and left the area . He noticed eight disciples trailing him with his Divine Sense so Raven immediately used his Fountain Steps to disappear from there . His speed was too fast for his pursuers to follow so they were left dumbfounded as they discovered the power of their target . Their backs were drenched in cold sweat because they knew that with this speed , they would have been slaughtered in seconds by the powerful Disciple who claimed to be member of the Pill Hall .
