Zong Yan, Kong Xuan, and Xie Yushu had left, and Alkaid's life once again entered its normal course.
He had no relatives or close friends here, and his only acquaintance, the Hundred Refinements Sect, had not provided pleasant interactions, mainly due to Huang Yunqi.
As for social interactions...
He suddenly found himself in circles too lofty, frequented by great cultivators.
And in the Nine Cauldrons Sect, which was teeming with initiatives, wasn't every great cultivator holding a significant position?
None came to him for casual conversation.
Therefore, he focused on Artifact Refining, aiming to earn enough spirit stones and gather enough experience first.
...
"The Nine Cauldrons Sect is very efficient with payments."
Alkaid smiled slightly.
He briefly perceived the gold foil in his storage bag that represented his account balance...
"Total assets have exceeded three hundred thousand."
Alkaid thought to himself.
Three hundred thousand spirit stones!
