Under Jun Changxiao’s leadership, the disciples entered the gloomy valley interior.

Spider webs could be seen everywhere inside, and there were even many things resembling eggs standing upright.

These were spider eggs, gestating Small Poison Spiders that hadn’t hatched yet.

“Shasha!”

In the darkness, a dark green Large Poison Spider crawled out from the spider web built among the trees.

This fellow’s physique was a full seven to eight meters. Crawling out from inside, it was like a moving small mountain, especially its eight eyes—each one as big as a soccer ball!

“This should be the Large Poison Spider King.” Jun Changxiao said, “Zuiji, hand me the gun.”

“Swish!”

Xiao Zuiji passed over the Type 88 sniper rifle.

Jun Changxiao received the gun and raised it, his eye against the eight-times scope, the auto-aim directly locking onto those ball-sized eyes.

“Already a lone commander, yet you still dare come out!”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh—

Eight consecutive shots fired, and all eight eyes of the Large Poison Spider King were completely blown out.

“Hiss!”

A painful and eerie strange cry rang out.

“Bang! Bang!”

Jun Changxiao fired one more shot, using up the last bullet, directly penetrating through the Large Poison Spider King’s head.

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Before dying, this Mid Fifth-Rank fierce beast opened its large mouth, spraying out poison liquid like rain.

The Iron Bones Clanging Sect disciples had long since gathered together. Xiao Zuiji, Li Yuhua, and the others raised their defensive barriers, blocking all the green poison liquid.

“Boom!”

The Large Poison Spider King fell from the spider web, completely annihilated before it could display its special characteristics and formidability.

Sect Master Jun was in a hurry—how could he possibly give it a chance to show itself? Moreover, if the poison liquid sprayed everywhere and accidentally poisoned disciples, that would be no fun.

Directly killing it was the most reliable!

“Ding! Side quest completed. Host obtains 400 contribution points.”

“Ding! Contribution points: 1025/1000.”

“Ding! Sect contribution points overflow. Host must spend within 24 hours, otherwise the overflow contribution points will be automatically deducted.”

It had to be said, as various quests were successively completed and sect construction improved, subsequent quest rewards were easily several hundred contribution points.

Jun Changxiao rubbed his hands together and said, “1000 contribution points—I can buy goods from the mid-tier shop now!”

The system threw cold water: “Sect construction hasn’t reached Level 4. Even if the host purchases goods from the mid-tier shop, they cannot be used.”

“Damn!”

Sect Master Jun dismissed the thought of opening the mid-tier shop and ordered, “Take the beast core and go to the next valley entrance.”

Li Qingyang carefully dug out the Large Poison Spider King’s beast core. The other disciples collected some spider silk, then began searching for another entrance.

The valley interior of the spider nest had no other passages, so Jun Changxiao led everyone back the way they came.

…

“They’re coming out!”

“Holy crap, they’re so clean?”

The rogue cultivators waiting outside saw Jun Changxiao leading twenty-five disciples out, and the expressions on their faces immediately became spectacular.

Weren’t there many poison spiders inside?

Not only did the Iron Bones Clanging Sect people come out safely, they didn’t even have a drop of poison liquid on them. This was simply incredible!

Jun Changxiao chose a relatively clean place, had the disciples rest in place, then opened the system data panel.

1025 contribution points—he could spend freely now!

Refresh!

After deducting 10 contribution points, the goods in the low-tier shop changed. Jun Changxiao carefully began browsing and soon saw a martial technique book called “Mountain-Opening Palm.”

The description said this was a palm technique created by a martial arts grandmaster. Cultivating it to great completion could split mountains with one palm.

Quality: Mid-Grade High-Tier. Price: 50 contribution points.

What the Iron Bones Clanging Sect most lacked right now were various martial techniques, so Jun Changxiao unhesitatingly bought it and directly copied 1000 books.

“Ding! Sect contribution points: 955/1000.”

“Ding! Detecting host purchased palm technique from shop. Automatically matching as sect cultivation method.”

After Jun Changxiao glanced at the sect cultivation methods now including Mountain-Opening Palm, he continued viewing goods.

There were no valuable goods after that, so he continued refreshing. The result was that what newly appeared wasn’t as good as the last time.

He casually bought the cheapest item and continued refreshing. The result was tragic—after consecutively spending 100 contribution points, he didn’t see a single martial dao-related product, instead gaining several daily use items.

“I don’t believe it!” Jun Changxiao scrolled down again.

Refreshing the shop was just like drawing lottery tickets—very easy to become addicted to, and it also depended on luck. With bad luck, even using up all contribution points might not refresh something satisfactory.

This time, refreshing again and again, tragedy again and again.

The resting disciples saw the sect master alternating between despair and frenzy, his facial expressions changing very richly.

“Senior Brother, what’s wrong with the sect master?”

“He looks like he’s suffering. Did he get poisoned?”

Everyone was completely confused.

Jun Changxiao spent another 100 contribution points and gained several more daily use items.

Although they all had functions, they were also very bizarre. For example, the umbrella he just bought—the description said that jumping down from a cliff, it could be used as a parachute!

Damn it, who would jump off a cliff when they had nothing better to do!

If it weren’t the cheapest item, Sect Master Jun definitely wouldn’t consider purchasing it.

In a short time, he spent 200 contribution points, making him very pained and regretful. If he had known earlier, he might as well have bought 4 bottles of aptitude transformation liquid.

Calm down, calm down.

Can’t refresh anymore… mm, refresh one last time!

Jun Changxiao very calmly scrolled down the shop again. When he scanned past useless goods one by one, he was about to despairingly grab his hair.

“Hm?”

Just when he thought he had wasted contribution points in vain again, in the shop’s last slot was a product called “Low-Grade Sect Master Ball.”

Sect Master Ball? What does that mean?

Click details—

Item: Low-Grade Sect Master Ball.

Function: Throw at locked fierce beast for direct capture.

Advantage: Captured fierce beast becomes a contracted beast and can be immediately summoned after being thrown out.

Disadvantage: Only usable by the sect master, and can only capture low-level fierce beasts.

Price: 100 contribution points.

“Holy crap!”

Jun Changxiao said in surprise, “Isn’t this a Master Ball?”

The system said, “On the Xingyun Continent, wanting to sign a contract with fierce beasts is very troublesome. The Sect Master Ball can directly capture them. Recommended purchase index: five stars.”

“Ding! Host spent 100 contribution points. Obtained Low-Grade Sect Master Ball ×1. Already delivered to spatial ring.”

“Ding! Sect contribution points: 755/1000.”

“Swish!”

Jun Changxiao waved his hand and retrieved the Sect Master Ball from his spatial ring.

This item was about the size of an apple with patterns resembling the Taiji diagram carved on it, emanating a heavy aura.

Alas.

If he had refreshed this earlier, he could have captured the Blazing Flame Wolf King and ridden it around the world—that would definitely be awesome!

Never mind, never mind.

Death Valley definitely still had fierce beasts more handsome than the Blazing Flame Wolf. As soon as he encountered one, he’d capture it immediately!

Moreover, wolves were a bit low-class. Catching something with a bigger physique like a tiger or lion and riding it out would be more prestigious!

Getting more and more excited as he thought about it, Jun Changxiao stood up and said, “Depart!”

With that, he led the disciples toward the windless tunnel entrance. However, just as he was about to enter, he turned around and smiled, “Everyone, if you still want to scavenge, please continue paying.”

“…”

The rogue cultivators were collectively in despair.
