In the next morning, a knock came into the transformed shed.

After noticing there was no reply from the inside, Da Yang and Da Zui opened the door to have a look but noticed their young master is unconscious on the ground with his hand on the ruler.

After a while, the two servants took their young master back to his room, and tidy him up for a moment until they young master wake up from his state.

The first word he mentioned when he wakes up is;

"When did I come back to my room?"

"Young master, you were unconscious on the floor yesterday, are you feeling well? If you're sick, we can call off the expedition and make it later." Zhang Da Yang answered and check his young master's condition before he agreed to anything else.

"I'm fine. I must be too tired at all the works yesterday. Where is the ruler from my hand?" he asked as he did not see the Iron Ruler all around the corner of his room.

"That ruler? We put it outside of the entrance. Da Zui, go take it into the room." Da Yang replied and ordered Da Zui to bring it in.

"This ruler is quite heavy, young master, are you thinking to use it as a weapon?" Da Zui took the ruler into the room.

Although it looks like a normal Iron Ruler, it was still crafted using one and half ingots of Pure Iron in their High-Grade quality.

The weight alone is 18.6 kilograms.

In the eyes of people using a weapon in their daily life, a normal sword should only weight 1.4kilograms to heaviest 2.5 kilograms, which labeled as a claymore.

But the ruler alone weight heavier than ten swords.

If it were used for normal purposes, it's weight can be ignored, but when in a battle, a close to 20 kilograms weapon is a burden, no matter how strong is the cultivator using the weapon.

What they don't know is the Iron Ruler, when used by Zhang Wu Ji, it will be as light as a feather.

Without waiting for his servants to question him anymore, Zhang Wu Ji stands up from the bed and changed a different set of clothing before he took the Iron Ruler in his hand. Like playing with a wooden stick in his hand, he swings the Iron Ruler using only one hand and walks over to the entrance of the Manor.

Outside of the Manor stands ten servants, each of them possessing a strength of at least a 6th Stage Inner Qi Fighter, and the strongest among them are two 9th Stage Inner Qi Fighter.

Among the ten of them, one is carrying thirty sturdy baskets cramped together, while another guy is walking along with different tools behind it.

Each of them has a weapon sling on their waist, with Zhang Wu Ji himself holding a heavy ruler at his back.

"Look at the Zhang Family, why are they heading to the Qing Spirit Woods with so many people?" the people walking along the shopping street was notified with their movement and the numbers of their team, but very fast found the reason they did it.

"It must because of their useless young master again."

"That Zhang Wu Ji?"

"Yes, that trash. Something must come into his stupid brain for his father to order ten Inner Qi Fighters to follow him into an empty woods."

"Yeah, let us see how they will come back since they were taking so many baskets with them."

"Did they go to the forest to pick rubbish?"

"Hahaha! I think so too!"

The resident of Li Jiang Town were full of negative comments as the team went out of the town.

Since the Qing Spirit Woods is not located too far from the town, added with their lack of resources, beast, and treasures, it soon became a place for adulteries and cheating to happen.

On their way deeper into the woods, torn pants, unwanted undergarments, are all thrown everywhere, indicating these places are completely fine for people to cheat against their partner here.

In fact, not too far from their party, a soft moaning sound can be heard.

"Screwing in the early of the morning, what a pair of adulteries!" one of the servant complaints.

But without notice, the others call him to shut his mouth, in case they cause an ire of their young master.

"The former Zhang Wu Ji's achievement again..." he can only keep quiet instead of adding in any words along their way.

Who can win against the Young Master Zhang's conquest of enjoying five days of sex nonstop in the VIP room of Deity Pavilion? In those five days, he almost enjoyed all the ladies available in the pavilion and demanded more before he collapsed and was sent home with the reason of overexerting his sexual health.

"If I got a sexual disease, I will kill you again when I'm dead!" the current Zhang Wu Ji cursed him in the heart.

Soon, they finally entered the inner part of the Qing Spirit Woods.

Except being surrounded with withering trees and useless foliage and vegetation, the group has no idea why their young master want them to come here with so many baskets and tools.

"Are we seriously going to collect rubbish here?" they thought.

"What are you guys standing there, take a basket and come to collect all of these herbs." Zhang Wu Ji pointed at a patch of wild grasses on the ground and ordered his people to collect them.

"We're really come here to collect rubbish!" the ten servants already started to cry in their heart.

"Come here, Take the sledgehammer to shatters this piece of rocks. I will choose a few of them after it was done."

"Do we have a container to collect Liquids? If yes, bring it here and collect the sap from these four trees, only this four and not the others."

"Can you see there are some fruits on the taller part of the trees? Only take those with a red color on their skin, leave those without there."

"Come here, quick. Carefully capture the wild beast inside of the burrows, if you need help, get two more guys to help you."

"This... That... Come here... Get that..." Zhang Wu Ji continues to have his servant collecting the item they thought to be rubbish until eighteen of the basket is filled.

"Alright, I will stay here for the night, one guy stays here to accompany me, while the other nine guys take the item back to the Manor. Place all of the rocks near the shed I'm using, and for the grasses, flowers, and fruits put them inside the Pill Making Room."

"Come back before tomorrow morning, and bring more baskets here." Zhang Wu Ji ordered. Some of the servants hesitated, but the other nine still dare not to reject the order of their young master.

Having no choices at all, they brought the rubbish back, only to be laughed at by the residents as they walk past the street until they reach the Zhang's Manor.

It was a shame, a despicable act their young master had them do, but without any choice to reject, the servants stored the trash in the places their young master mentioned before taking new baskets and return to the Qing Spirit Woods.

Although it only took them three hours to enter the inner woods, it took them over five hours to return to the Manor, took a short rest, before coming back to the inner woods in the morning.

Meanwhile, at the night, Zhang Wu Ji and a 9th Stage Inner Qi Fighter are sharing a skewered rabbit as their dinner.

The servant did not expect Zhang Wu Ji to complete the culinary preparation himself, but when he shared the meal with the servant, it further questioned him.

"When did our young master reach maturity? He was still a spoiled brat half a month ago!"

It was too bad that none of them knew the truth behind his sudden change of his attitude and personality, but since the change is nothing bad, the servant can only appreciate it.

But still, he dares himself to ask a question he thought it will bring up his young master's fury.

"Young Master, can this servant know why did you collect so many trash and have the servants bring them back to the Manor? If I'm not mistaken, the others must be the laughing stock now, when they entered the town," he asked out of curiosity.

"You really believe they were trash?" Zhang Wu Ji asked while smiling at the young master.

"This servant is uneducated, but since so many people say only trash grows here, then what could it be?" the servant answered.

"My answer to your question is; a person's poison is another man's meat." Zhang Wu Ji replied in a mysterious way, but his abbreviation is not wrong.

It may look like trash for others, but will that be the same to Zhang Wu Ji who have the ability to upgrade?

What is the problem if the treasures quality was low? Treasure still a treasure, and since the people all treat them as a trash, why shouldn't I collect all of them? You guys don't want it anyway!" Zhang Wu Ji smiled as the sentence appeared in his mind.

On the following day, Zhang Wu Ji repeated his antique again.

Pointing at all kind of trash and waste, he had is people collecting them gently like handling a treasure.

Each of them were collected and brought back to the Manor, where it turned the Manor into a garbage collection area.

No matter how much Zhang Qing Feng can control his temper, it all gone on the third day. Because in the time of three days, the just changed child of his actually collected so many garbage back to the home!

Worst of all, at the end of their third day, they collected four batches of garbage before all of them returned for good.

Looking at the Manor filled with garbage all over from the courtyard to the backyard, and covering the shed completely, stink and hard to tolerate, his father went to question what his child wanted to do.

"Brat! Come here and receive your penance! What are you doing by bringing so many trash home!" he went over to where the youth is taking his shower and pulled him out from the bathtub.

"Dad, I'm naked." Zhang Wu Ji answered.

"I DON’T CARE!!. Tell me what is the reason to collect all this garbage, if it is not convincing, I will have you personally remove them all by yourself!" Zhang Qing Feng warns him to give him a good explanation.

But when he noticed that his brat actually possess 13 Strands of Inner Qi already, it gave him a small shock!

"You! How did you get 13 strands of Inner Qi from 5 previously, just half a month had passed after you go for the lesson!" he exclaimed.

"I learned the two Manual you brought me. Aren't the manual is to strengthen our body and increase our ability to control more strands of Inner Qi?" he explained, but only himself know that it wasn't the real case.

"That's true... But... How did you cultivate? I remembered your Martial Body is not capable to control the absorption of Qi. Unless you have assistance from the pills, it would be extremely difficult for you to do so." Zhang Qing Feng said.

His words are true, from the time Zhang Wu Ji was five, he was being fed with unaccountable numbers of Qi Sensing Pill that will allow him to feel and absorb more Qi at his surrounding, but no matter how hard he tried, the results were disappointing.

One strand every three years is the best he could do until he was fifteen with five strands of Inner Qi.

But within half a month, this child actually increased his strands of Inner Qi from 5 into 13? That is an amazing feat.

It was almost one strand of Inner Qi every two days. But his guess is almost correct nevertheless because Zhang Wu Ji did increase his strands of Inner Qi two strands in every three days.

"Anyway... Back to the point! What are you doing by gathering all the rubbish in our place!" his attention was turned into somewhere else for a moment, but return to the track after he finishes thinking about it.

"Father, since the treasure was neglected over there in the woods, why shouldn’t the Zhang Family take them back?" Zhang Wu Ji explained, insisting that the item he brought back is a treasure and not trash.

"Then tell me, what are the grasses used for? I don't believe you that they can be concocted into pills!" Zhang Qing Feng pointed at the stack of grasses piled in the basket. Each of them carries a dirty and purplish hue on their tip, and when they were crushed, the grasses released fumes smell so bad, like a rotten egg.

In fact, his room smells slightly bad because few of the grasses were crushed during their transfer into the manor.

"Father, these grasses? Let me make something for you. When you know what you were looking at, you might send more people to pluck them all." Zhang Wu Ji laughed as he took five stalks of the grasses to the well near to his room, and begin to clean them.

After all, cleanliness is important before the begin of a concoction.

"Five trash blades of grass to concoct pill? I will see what you're trying to do." Zhang Qing Feng harrumph and took a seat on the extremely comfortable beddings used by his child.

Secretly, when he washes the stalks of grasses by the well, he proceeds to secretly upgrade them so their quality is better before he starts to prepare the concoction.

Although this stalk of grass was less fertile and lower quality herbs, they were in fact, the unbudded Violet Tip Spirit Grass.

A well taken care Violet Tip Spirit Grass released calming fragrances that could relax a person during his meditation, furthermore, the pill concocted from a proper Violet Tip Spirit Grass has a ten times stronger calming effect.

It was due to the unsuitable soil and nutrition caused the lower quality Violet Tip Spirit Grass fail to grow, but after so long surviving in the wild, their method to protect themselves from predator grows, turning their fragrance to stinging smells that make people them from eating.

But after the concoction, they will still carry the same properties, and this is why Zhang Wu Ji collected them back.

It was for the sake of concocting the Violet Calming Pill.

Normally, it only required two stalk of the Violet Tip Spirit Grass to concoct one pill, but due to the lack of extracts inside of the wild grown grasses, Zhang Wu Ji used five instead of two.

He fired the cauldron to get it ready for the concoction.

With all the ingredients placed within, Zhang Wu Ji prepared the concoction, and control the amount of heat was used to form the pill.

After twenty minutes, he extinguished the fire, before he completely removed them from the cauldron.

Since the cauldron was out of flame at a sudden, the cooling process has begun. In not even ten minutes, it lost all the heat completely, this was the time Zhang Wu Ji went to open the cauldron's lid and released the fragrance of a medicinal pill completely opposite of the smelly grasses.

"Violet Calming Pill!"

"This grass is actually Violet Tip Spirit Grass? How can they look so different from the one mentioned in the Compendium of Herbal Records!" Zhang Qing Feng stands up as he quickly steps to the side of the cauldron.

As an owner of an apothecary, he was well educated and rich with knowledge related to herbs and the pills, including how they look and smell.

But the one his child concocted was not even out of the ordinary through using trash ingredients, it was even more effective than usual!

"How could this be! The ingredient had a lower quality, a different strain, but how can their end results be better than the one I smelled and tasted before?" Zhang Qing Feng still can’t believe what he saw.

Previously, he received an order to provides five Violet Calming Pills to an elder from the Chen's, and it worth 100 gold coins each for a basic quality one.

Holding the concocted pill in his hand, Zhang Wu Ji inspects the quality of the pill he concocted.

Violet Calming Pill +1

Usage: Reduce the anxiety of cultivator by 11.6% on consumption.

Quality: Basic

"I assume the none upgraded version should be around 10% - 11% strength?" Zhang Wu Ji calculates the rough amount of increase it received from the upgrades.

Although the prices of this pill can try to yield 100 gold coins to 130 gold coins each, it was a profit for him who did not spend a single penny to obtain all the ingredients.

"Son, are you planning to sell this pills?" Zhang Qing Feng questioned, he anticipates his son to sell this in their apothecary, but this time, he will have to take a small profit from him, because he cannot keep selling things for his child and still pay for the fee.

"No, I'm not interested in profiting from this. Father, you can sell everything through the shop. It will only last until all the ingredient are used up." Zhang Wu Ji replied.

"Father can send people to dig more of them back, then we can... Oh..." Zhang Wu Ji almost finished his word before he realized that he really did what his child said before. "If you know what is this, you will want to pluck them all."

"Damn kid, although you collected one good ingredient from the Qing Spirit Woods, it doesn't mean that the other thing might be trash. You better reveal what are all of them before I had you throw them back to the woods." Zhang Qing Feng continues to scold him but leaving with a smile thereafter.

"Father, oh father, your acting is a little too bad." Zhang Wu Ji smiled as he continued to handle the ingredients. Since his total of Inner Qi is still limited, Zhang Wu Ji continued with his procedural steps of ringing the bell, three servants come.

The cleaned Violet Tip Spirit Grass is finally all upgraded to+1 after three days.

He was transmigrated into this world for 24 days already. As of now, his total of strands of Inner Qi reached 15, enough for him to process quite an amount of item before rest.

In the eyes of the servants, their weird young master was practicing with something different again, until he suddenly appears with 150 Violet Calming Pills in hand.

The suddenly available Violet Calming Pills was hiked into 140 Gold coins each, and three days later, It was all sold out.

The demand is still there, but the Zhang apothecary promised that new stocks will come in soon when they're available.

As for the other products, most of them were either Meridian Soothing Pills and Wound Mending Pills, which was sold for 25 gold coins each.

Because the quality of pills has increased consistently, the residents and visitors chose the Zhang's Apothecary as their main reason to visit when they entered the town.

On the 33rd day, his Inner Qi strands finally reach 21, four times more than what he used to be one month ago.

Now, the part of the medicinal ingredients he harvested were completely used.

Only the tree saps, rocks, and some other seem to be useless item remained in the courtyard, where his temporary forge was located.

Although it was pointless for him to keep thing as a secret, it was still a safe bet to not telling anyone in the family that the trash remain here is the reason he entered the woods at the first place.

For a normal cultivator or blacksmith, they were useless junk, but for him, one with the ability to inspect the item and upgrading them, this stack of an item were treasures!

Real treasures that were neglected, discarded, and failed to be discerned by those shallow people living in this world!

"Today onwards, you will regain your freedom to view the world again. Although you will no longer retain your previous appearance, with you in my hand, I will bring you all to the peak of the world!"
