Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 47: The Summer Insect Cannot Speak of Ice

Upon returning to the Linyue Manor, Su Ping began to reflect on his trip to the Jiuye Mountain Market. He carefully recalled the fragments of memories from the swarm of rats.

He speculated on the general situation: the members of the Punishing Evil Alliance wanted to obtain something or a secret from the Eagle-Faced Cultivator, so they deliberately set up an ambush to kill him.

However, they didn't expect that the Eagle-Faced Cultivator had a technique to escape, forcing the important figures in the dark clouds to personally take action.

As for why all the cultivators around Jiuye Mountain were killed, it could be either because the other party had a strong desire to kill, or perhaps they were worried that the Eagle-Faced Cultivator would reveal the secret in a critical moment and left no one alive.

After all, only the dead can keep secrets.

The fact that the Jiuye Mountain Market was preserved was probably thanks to the Yunyuan Cultivator who decisively activated the barrier to cut off information inside and outside, thus preemptively clearing their relationship.

Of course, the Yun family, as a cultivation family, must have played a crucial role in this.

Otherwise, with just a baseless speculation, Jiuye Mountain would probably have been cleansed...

Having sorted out the cause and effect, Su Ping keenly felt the crisis from the outside world.

"The boundaries of the cultivation world are becoming more chaotic. In chaotic times, it's better to rely on oneself than anyone else!"

"I have the Hidden Realm in the Pot, and this time I also obtained illusion formations and related artifacts from the auction!"

"I can also accelerate the layout in the Water Blue Star."

"At least I can try to obtain more things that can enhance my combat power."

Previously, due to his inherent fear of the technological civilization of his hometown, Su Ping had been cautious and focused on cultivation.

In fact, this was the correct approach.

Based on the information Su Ping had collected so far, a Qi Refining stage cultivator would not be able to withstand modern individual weapons.

Even a tempered body cultivator with steel-like bones would not be able to withstand a steel plate that is only two fingers thick.

Of course, this doesn't mean that cultivators are not opponents for gunmen.

With the Qi Refining cultivator's five senses, although they cannot dodge bullets, they can surpass the visual and physical reaction speed of the gunman, allowing them to simply avoid the muzzle.

Therefore, in Su Ping's opinion, modern individual weapons are actually more suitable for low-level cultivators!

Only with the cultivator's five senses and physical reaction speed can the true potential of these weapons be fully realized.

Thus, it is theoretically feasible to demonstrate the combat power of those seemingly unrealistic sharpshooters in comics and movies!

"Oh, and there's also the Bloodline Stone Tablet!"

Su Ping suddenly remembered the most expensive item he had bought at the auction.

While planning to conduct a blood experiment, he suddenly thought of the origin of this Bloodline Stone Tablet.

After thinking about it, he decided to go to the Pot Realm to conduct the experiment.

Otherwise, if this Bloodline Stone Tablet had any hidden tricks, such as secretly transmitting messages to the creator when detecting certain special spiritual bodies, he would be tying himself up.

In the Pot Realm, Su Ping took out the Bloodline Stone Tablet.

It looked like a palm-sized rhombus-shaped grayish-white stone tablet.

The front and back of the stone tablet were engraved with thousands of mysterious and unfathomable runes.

Su Ping placed a spirit stone in the groove in the middle of the Bloodline Stone Tablet, then lightly cut his fingertip and dripped a drop of blood on the stone tablet.

After a few seconds, the Bloodline Stone Tablet activated and emitted a faint white light.

When the light gradually dissipated, the five golden characters "Tenfold Annihilation Body" appeared in the air above the Bloodline Stone Tablet.

"It really is the Tenfold Annihilation Body!"

Su Ping looked at the name of the spiritual body displayed on the Bloodline Stone Tablet, and even though he had guessed it earlier, he was still delighted:

"A tenth of the Tenfold Annihilation Body is still the Tenfold Annihilation Body!"

"This is a spiritual body that can become the holy child of the Tenfold Sect! I just need to eat nine Crimson Blood Rainbow Carps and I can get it one hundred percent!"

"The future is promising, and immortality is within reach!"

The joy seemed to dispel the troubles Su Ping had from the Nine Leaf Mountain, making him feel relieved.

Afterward, Su Ping made some preparations and activated the teleportation talisman to return to the Water Blue Star.

Dongwang Observatory.

Zhou Xuan, the young Taoist priest, rode his bicycle back to the temple.

He had just finished a discussion meeting.

He was disdainful of participating in these debates with Zhen Xiu.

After all, no matter how much they argued, they couldn't cultivate supernatural powers or become immortals.

But his mentor would also be present at this meeting, so Zhou Xuan couldn't not go.

Otherwise, his mentor might suspect that he had gone astray in his cultivation and was planning to give up alchemy...

"Sigh, the summer insect cannot speak of ice. How did I not realize before that I had such a huge communication barrier with them?"

Zhou Xuan complained in his heart, parked his bicycle, and returned to the backyard.

His footsteps suddenly stopped, and his body involuntarily straightened.

Then, he bowed deeply towards the figure in front of the statue in the back hall and lowered his voice.

"Master, you're back."

"Mm, how has your cultivation been recently?"

Su Ping responded, turning to look at Zhou Xuan. His eyes were bright, making Zhou Xuan feel a little flustered. He lowered his head and quietly spoke about the changes and doubts in his cultivation during this period.

"Interesting."

After listening, Su Ping gave his evaluation.

Zhou Xuan was able to cultivate the Five Elements Technique that Su Ping had taught him in this spiritless environment and gain so many insights. His talent was still unknown, but at least his comprehension should be top-notch!

"Extend your hand."

Su Ping took out the bloodline stone tablet and said softly to Zhou Xuan.

When Zhou Xuan saw Su Ping take out the stone tablet, he couldn't take his eyes off it.

He obediently extended his hand.

Then, with a light scratch of Su Ping's nail, Zhou Xuan dripped blood onto the stone tablet.

However, the bloodline stone tablet showed no reaction.

Su Ping shook his head gently, knowing that this was unexpected but within reason.

How could a spiritual body appear so easily?

Even among the immortal sects where geniuses gathered, there were not many who had spiritual bodies.

Even though his hometown had no spiritual energy, there were still plenty of plants and animals that seemed to have spirituality, not fewer than in the cultivation world.

To find someone with a spiritual body, it would also take some time and external help.

"Master... Does this mean I have no chance of becoming an immortal?"

Zhou Xuan looked at the unresponsive bloodline stone tablet, filled with sadness and unwillingness.

Before tears could well up in his eyes...

Su Ping took back the bloodline stone tablet and said:

"It's not that you have no chance. You just don't have a Dao body. But don't worry too much, there are many cultivators with talent but no Dao body."

"Even I only have a certain kind of Dao body."

"If you want to know if you can cultivate immortality, you'll find out when you can absorb spiritual energy after entering the hidden realm."

After Su Ping finished speaking, he lightly waved his right hand in the air.

A translucent, somewhat illusory jade pendant, filled with an unreal feeling, was pressed into Zhou Xuan's hand.

This was an invitation to the Hidden Realm in a Pot.

The style of the invitation card could be set by Su Ping, the owner.

Guests who wanted to enter the Hidden Realm in a Pot had to come into contact with the invitation card and mentally agree to enter when they received the invitation.

Zhou Xuan was excited and wanted to hold the jade pendant tightly, but found that it seemed like a projection and had no physical sensation at all.

But soon he stopped worrying about this question.

As a mysterious inquiry came to his mind.

Although he couldn't understand the inquiry, he sensed from the depths of his heart that this voice was asking if he was willing to enter a world outside of this world!

"I... I'm willing!"

Zhou Xuan shouted in his heart.

Then, in the next moment!

Everything in front of Zhou Xuan turned upside down in an instant and transformed into... the Immortal Realm!
