Chapter 949 The Martial Arts Forum
"Mr. Chen, are the medicinal ingredients out?"
Seeing Chen Xuan's urgency, Old Master Bai couldn't help but show a hint of worry.
"Not exactly," Chen Xuan shook his head.
Old Master Bai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good!"
He was eager to obtain the elixir. With the elixir, the Bai family would also have a dual inner strength Grandmaster and would no longer be looked down upon by the Murong family and the Gao family!
"Mr. Chen, why don't I send someone to look for that expert again? He shouldn't have gone far," Old Master Bai said immediately.
"Forget it, we'll meet again if we're fated."
Chen Xuan sighed and waved his hand.
It was difficult to find such a peculiar person if you tried. Perhaps the fortune-telling old man deliberately waited for them here today.
He believed that one day, this old man would come to find him.
"Alright," Old Master Bai could only nod.
Chen Xuan said in a deep voice, "Now that the Jade Ginseng has been found, the last medicinal ingredient, the Fire Spirit Fruit, is still missing. Do you have any leads?"
"Mr. Chen, I was just about to tell you this good news. We have found a lead for the Fire Spirit Fruit."
"Oh? You found a lead for the Fire Spirit Fruit?"
Chen Xuan was stunned and looked at Old Master Bai with surprise.
The Fire Spirit Fruit grew in areas near volcanoes, and it was rare for even one to be nurtured in a century. Compared to the Jade Ginseng, the Fire Spirit Fruit was even rarer. He didn't expect Old Master Bai to find it so quickly.
Old Master Bai said, "This is thanks to the development of the internet!"
"I not only sent people to search in Jiangnan Province, but I also posted about the Fire Spirit Fruit online. I finally found a lead in a martial arts forum."
"That Fire Spirit Fruit will be auctioned at an auction house abroad. I've already sent someone with funds to participate in the auction. There should be news soon!"
"That's really great!"
Chen Xuan was also very happy.
If the Fire Spirit Fruit was obtained, all the medicinal ingredients would be gathered. At that time, the influence of the forces in the provincial capital of Jiangnan Province would reach a new peak, and even Su Ning would not dare to underestimate them in the future.
Old Master Bai also looked forward to it. If the Fire Spirit Fruit was found and refined into a high-grade barrier-breaking elixir, the Bai family's strength would also greatly increase!
Suddenly, Chen Xuan frowned and said, "Old Master Bai, what is a martial arts forum?"
Old Master Bai stammered, seemingly unsure how to explain. He then pointed to Young Master Bai and said, "I don't really understand. Xiaofei mentioned it. Xiaofei, quickly tell Mr. Chen what the martial arts forum is all about?"
Young Master Bai quickly smiled and introduced, "Mr. Chen, the martial arts forum is an online forum where many martial artists discuss martial arts news, how to cultivate, and buy medicinal ingredients. However, in this circle, those who post on the forum are generally beginners who have just started learning martial arts."
As he spoke, Young Master Bai took out his phone and opened an app called Martial Arts Forum.
Chen Xuan looked down and saw that many people were posting on this martial arts forum.
For example, Chen Xuan saw someone posting: "I am practicing the Iron Sand Palm, why do my palms get injured easily when I practice it?"
There were already a lot of comments below, most of them were teasing. Some said they smelled roasted pig trotters, while others suggested trying stones first, and sand would be much better next time.
As expected, most people on this martial arts forum were beginners, and they didn't even know how to practice the Iron Sand Palm.
Just as he was thinking, Chen Xuan suddenly saw a comment and his gaze immediately focused.
"Before practicing the Iron Sand Palm, one must first practice the acupoint lubrication. By lubricating the acupoints, the injured qi and blood can be unblocked, the muscles and bones can be harmonized, and the qi and strength can be united, thus avoiding injuries. As for how to lubricate the acupoints, it's on my homepage. You can take a look..."
This answer was very professional.
He also agreed and said faintly, "Young Master Bai, it seems that this martial arts forum is not what you said. There are still martial arts masters in this martial arts forum."
Young Master Bai was stunned and looked down. The next moment, his face became extremely excited, and he shouted, "Wow, it's Dragon God! Dragon God actually answered this question! My heavens, why don't I have such good luck to have Dragon God answer my question?"
"My heavens, if Dragon God answers, there must be a lot of rewards."
Young Master Bai clicked on the comment below, and as expected, the poster had rewarded Dragon God with one million martial arts coins. Below this comment, there were also tens of thousands of comments. Generally, those who could reach this number of comments were all popular figures on the martial arts forum.
"Dragon God? Who is Dragon God?" Chen Xuan asked with a frown.
Young Master Bai took a deep breath, controlled his emotions, and said, "Mr. Chen, you may not know this, but most people on the Martial Alliance Forum are beginners, but there are also many masters who are lurking. However, there are not many who are willing to condescend to teach beginners. Dragon God is one of them!"
"It is said that this Dragon God is a ninth-grade inner strength Grandmaster or a Martial Arts Venerable from the capital!"
"Martial Arts Venerable? How do you know? Have you seen his videos?" Chen Xuan frowned.
Martial Arts Venerable, that was a rare existence. At least in Jiangnan Province, there had not been any masters of this level.
"I haven't seen him, but Dragon God has answered how to advance from an inner strength Grandmaster to a Martial Arts Venerable!"
Young Master Bai said, "At that time, a beginner couldn't sleep and was bored in the middle of the night, so he posted a thread."
"But unexpectedly, Dragon God jumped out and answered the question very seriously. Then a large number of ninth-grade inner strength Grandmasters emerged, expressing their gratitude and rewarding Dragon God with over one billion martial arts coins, setting a new record for rewards in the martial arts forum! Dragon God also gained a large number of fans!"
"Afterward, after verification by interested parties, Dragon God's answer on how to advance to a Martial Arts Venerable was completely correct. Therefore, everyone believed that this Dragon God was a Martial Arts Venerable or a ninth-grade inner strength Grandmaster who was about to break through!"
"How do you know that those who were lurking were ninth-grade inner strength Grandmasters?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.
"The founder of the martial arts forum, in order to expand his influence, heavily invited some ninth-grade inner strength Grandmasters to join. They were all real-name verified. This is like inviting big stars to settle in on Douyin or Kuaishou."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly and said, "So that's how it is."
Young Master Bai continued, "There is a black market in the martial arts forum where you can buy all sorts of medicinal ingredients, antiques, and things that can be used for cultivation. I previously posted a request for the Fire Spirit Fruit in the black market. If we can't get the Fire Spirit Fruit abroad, we can continue to search for it on the martial arts forum."
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up with interest upon hearing this. He opened the black market section and indeed saw many people posting requests for items. There were all sorts of requests.
He needed not just one Fire Spirit Fruit, but many, and also many other medicinal ingredients. Therefore, this black market was very important to Chen Xuan.
Old Master Bai smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, we won't disturb you any further. If we find the Fire Spirit Fruit, we will contact you immediately."
"Okay, that's all for now then." Chen Xuan smiled.
After Young Master Bai and the others left, Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi also returned to their residence.
Chen Xuan held his phone and began to study the forum.
This forum was indeed quite practical. Although many people were just posting casually, it had to be said that there were some simple and practical cultivation methods that could help beginners in martial arts avoid detours.
