Chapter 4938

Therefore, unless it was a matter of life and death, the owners of these black markets would not dare to act rashly.
They could only obediently hand over the immortal coins and accept defeat.

That day, Bai Yi led Kai in sweeping through every black market in Rhino City, winning countless immortal coins and resources.
When they returned to Linghufang, Bai Yi was so happy he almost hugged and kissed Kai.

“My dear son-in-law, from now on, don’t bother staying at any inn. Linghufang is your home! I’ll arrange a luxurious and comfortable room for you,” Bai Yi said warmly to Kai.

Kai nodded, then pointed at Hu Mazi and Xiu Rui and said, “My two friends here…”

“They’re your friends, so they’re honored guests of Linghufang! They’ll live here too,” Bai Yi replied generously.

“But their identities…” Kai hesitated, worried that Hu Mazi and Xiu Rui’s human identities might be exposed and cause trouble for Linghufang.

“It’s fine. As long as they don’t wander around, there won’t be any issues,” Bai Yi reassured him.

“Master Hu, Fellow Daoist Xiu, what do you two think?” Kai asked the pair.

“I’ll follow Fellow Daoist Chen’s arrangements,” Xiu Rui said casually.
After all, Kai had saved his life, and with his human identity, he had no way to survive in Rhino City without Kai’s protection.

Hu Mazi, however, scratched his head awkwardly and said, “There are two women at the inn. Can we bring them too?”

“Of course! I’ll arrange separate rooms for you,” Bai Yi said enthusiastically before Kai could even respond.

“Great! I’ll go pick them up right away!” Hu Mazi said happily as he rushed off.

In the days that followed, Kai and his companions stayed within Linghufang.
After all, Linghufang had everything they needed—it was practically a small city of its own.

Kai trained diligently inside the Demon Suppression Tower. With the steady supply of immortal coins and abundant resources, his cultivation speed advanced by leaps and bounds.

In just half a month, Kai’s realm had astonishingly reached the eighth level of the Immortal Realm!

It’s important to note that half a month in the outside world equaled fifty months inside the Demon Suppression Tower—equivalent to several years of cultivation.

When Kai emerged from the Demon Suppression Tower, everyone was stunned. He had risen from the first level to the eighth level of the Immortal Realm in just half a month, an unbelievable achievement.

“My dear son-in-law, your cultivation speed is incredible, but the rate at which you consume resources is just as shocking. The resources we won through competition are almost depleted,” Bai Yi said helplessly.

Without such a rich supply of resources, Kai would not have been able to stay so long in the Demon Suppression Tower.

“Father-in-law, this is already amazing. It’s just a pity that all those resources were consumed by me alone,” Kai said, somewhat embarrassed.

“My dear son-in-law, you’re being too modest! From now on, all of Linghufang is yours—naturally, the resources are yours too!” Bai Yi said with a hearty laugh, patting Kai on the shoulder.

Kai was genuinely touched and felt even more connected to Bai Yi.

“Father-in-law, is there a trial ground in Rhino City? Now that my cultivation has improved so much, I need real combat experience to master it,” Kai asked seriously.

Although his realm had advanced to the eighth level, the rapid growth meant he needed actual battle practice to consolidate his foundation.

However, in Rhino City, he couldn’t just pick random people to spar with and beat them up.

“There’s a Purgatory Field in Rhino City,” Bai Yi said, “but it’s extremely dangerous. I’m afraid it might not suit you just yet.”

“Also, entering the Purgatory Field costs 500,000 immortal coins each time. Most people can’t afford that price.”

Bai Yi explained patiently as he walked with Kai.

“Purgatory Field? Why is there an entry fee? Where do the fees go? And what’s inside the Purgatory Field?” Kai asked, puzzled.
