Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 86: This Divine Skill is Destined for Me!

Jinyunshan Fangshi Market.

It is one of the several large official markets open to the public by the Chiyan Immortal Sect.

This market is backed by a at least second-grade superior spiritual vein, and multiple valuable spiritual mineral veins have been discovered near the spiritual vein.

Therefore, the sect attaches great importance to this place and has set up a set of multiple coordinated pseudo third-grade formations relying on this spiritual vein.

Even if a Gold Core expert comes, they will return empty-handed as long as there are Foundation Building experts stationed here and activated spiritual artifacts as the formation's eyes.

Su Ping transformed into the White Crane Boy and arrived at the foot of Jinyun Mountain.

He found that there were several newly built small towns at the foot of the mountain.

The town mainly consisted of two or three-story wooden buildings.

The residents were at least decently dressed cultivators, and there were also many wandering cultivators.

Su Ping walked to the entrance of a small town and waved his hand. Immediately, a perceptive wandering cultivator ran over and respectfully asked what the immortal master needed.

Su Ping gave him a Qi and Blood Pill and learned about the changes in Jinyunshan Fangshi Market from this wandering cultivator.

Recently, the sect's territory has been unstable, and news of the Foundation Building experts in Jinyunshan Fangshi Market suddenly spread. As long as a certain amount of spiritual stones is offered each month, non-sect members or retired cultivators are allowed to bring a certain number of family members to build a city and live at the foot of the mountain.

After hearing this news, some cultivation families arranged some of their peripheral family members to come to this large market.

The news spread, and many wandering cultivators who sensed danger decisively gave up being local tycoons in the countryside and brought their families to seek refuge with these cultivation families.

As a result, the small towns at the foot of the mountain became more and more populated with high-quality people, gradually showing signs of prosperity.

Although the small town they were in did not receive the protection of Jinyunshan Fangshi Market, they were verbally promised that if something unexpected happened, they could take refuge in Jinyunshan Fangshi Market.

Within the protection of the formation in Jinyunshan Fangshi Market, many small rental caves of different levels have been expanded recently, according to the distinction between insiders and outsiders.

As long as foreign cultivators or wandering cultivators can afford the spiritual stones, they can rent them with their families and enjoy better security under the protection of the formation.

As the escaped demonic beasts appeared more and more frequently in the mortal realm, the business of these caves became more prosperous.

At this point, the wandering cultivator's eyes were full of envy and desire.

He also wanted to live in a cave with his wife and children.

After learning about this news, Su Ping sighed inwardly that the person in charge of Jinyunshan Fangshi Market seemed to be someone who could earn spiritual stones.

However, based on the current situation he had seen along the way, Jinyunshan Fangshi Market was still relatively peaceful, and at least the surrounding order could be guaranteed.

The Foundation Building expert also seemed to be someone who followed the rules, which was important!

There were no ancient relics appearing, or incidents where a city was blood-sacrificed, and other strange events.

Satisfied, Su Ping rewarded the wandering cultivator with another Qi and Blood Pill. Under the grateful compliments of the other person and the envious and admiring gazes of others, he left the foot of the mountain and headed towards the entrance of the market formation.

At the entrance of the formation was a hundred-meter-high stone gate.

The plaque on the gate was written with five characters in immortal text: Jinyunshan Fangshi Market.

A pale light curtain extended from both sides of the stone gate, surrounding the entire mountain.

The sky was filled with immortal energy, seemingly normal but blocking all detection, including divine sense. Once someone tried to fly in directly, they would immediately be attacked by the formation and have no place to bury their body!

"A cultivator I haven't seen before?"

"Hmm?"

"A Qi Refining late stage cultivator who practices both body techniques and cultivation techniques!"

The leader of the gatekeepers was an outer disciple who had just reached the fourth level of Qi Refining. He held a bronze mirror artifact and took on the important task.

At first, he was careless and couldn't tell that the cultivation level here was not uncommon. Many cultivators had artifacts that concealed their cultivation level.

But when he saw the true cultivation level of the young cultivator in front of him through the bronze mirror, who looked like a white-robed Daoist boy, he gasped and quickly put on a sincere smile to greet him.

"Daoist Baihe?"

"Are you the one who listens to the wind and observes the moon with the immortal crane from the depths of the Western Desert?"

The outer disciple personally processed the registration certificate for Su Ping to enter the market.

Although he didn't quite believe that the young cultivator in front of him, who looked like a genius, really came from the Western Desert, a small sect that was not well-known.

After testing the spiritual power imprint and confirming that the person in front of him was not one of the evil cultivators or traitors wanted by the sect.

The outer disciple recited an incantation and cooperated with the bronze mirror artifact to cast a blue light onto a wooden plaque.

Then, respectfully, he handed the wooden plaque to Su Ping.

"Daoist Baihe, please keep this. This is a temporary inscription for entering Jinyunshan Fangshi Market, valid for 24 hours. Please leave before the time is up or extend the time..."

Su Ping quickly thanked the other party and, after paying the entrance fee, stepped into the stone gate.

Shua!

Once inside the stone gate, Su Ping was able to see the true face of the Jin Yunshan Fangshi Market!

This Jin Yunshan Fangshi Market truly lived up to its reputation as a large-scale market open to the outside world for the immortal sects.

It was more like a mountain city, a fairy city, built against the mountainside.

Compared to the layout here, the Nine Leaf Mountain could only be considered a shabby place!

Looking towards the mountaintop, Su Ping could still see an elliptical floating platform occupying an area of over tens of thousands of square meters, connected to the mountaintop buildings by several wooden walkways.

On the platform, there were various fairy boats from the Central Domain and even farther away.

From time to time, fairy boats tens or even hundreds of meters long would rise into the air, breaking through a golden light film and disappearing into the sea of clouds.

Along the mountain road, the worst were scattered cultivators passing by.

Those who opened shops and did business were mostly cultivators from immortal families.

However, Su Ping still noticed that the White Crane Boy he was playing as still stood out among them.

At the late stage of Qi Refining and body tempering, as soon as his cultivation was noticed, he would immediately receive the other party's awe and even fearful gaze.

Su Ping also encountered, for the first time, a female cultivator who walked on the road and was actively called up to play by a female cultivator on the floor of the Immortal Mysterious Tower, without needing spirit stones...

It was just that after a few calls from the female cultivator who looked innocent and gentle like a neighbor's older sister, she was pulled back by another female cultivator.

With the blessing of the Holy Body, Su Ping had good hearing and could faintly hear a female cultivator's reprimand from the tower:

"You're courting death! Don't be fooled by that appearance. That male cultivator's cultivation is at the late stage of both Qi Refining and body tempering. He's either an elite disciple of the inner sect or a true transmission disciple from another sect!"

"This kind of arrogant person who deliberately looks harmless while walking on the street is most likely to have an unpredictable temper. With your skills, if you're drained dry, the tower master won't stand up for you!"

Su Ping's body paused for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

He couldn't help but complain in his heart: Is it wrong to look a little younger and harmless in the cultivation world?

But Su Ping also understood that if he encountered a cultivator like the White Crane Boy on the street, he would probably be equally cautious and on guard while being shocked by the other party's youth.

Fortunately, after entering the mountainside, Su Ping quickly found the residence of the Great Golden Light Temple.

It was a single courtyard with good incense.

Considering that this was the Jin Yunshan Fangshi Market, the treatment here was not bad.

Su Ping walked in and paid a jin of spirit rice as an offering.

Su Ping declined the sales pitch of the knowledgeable monk for protective talismans.

These talismans were good, but they were too expensive. The cheapest ones cost fifteen spirit stones!

Su Ping remembered that when he was still in the immortal sect, talismans of similar quality could be bought for only seven or eight spirit stones.

It seemed that the Great Golden Light Temple also understood the laws of the market.

After stating his reason, Su Ping was led to the backyard of the temple and saw a three-meter-high stone stele standing there.

On this stone stele, golden scriptures continuously fell like waterfalls.

Su Ping recognized a few of them and found that they were Buddhist scriptures containing profound principles.

He wasn't interested in them, but went to the stele to check the specific rewards on the merit list.

The knowledgeable monk was not surprised by Su Ping's request.

Since the sealing artifacts were distributed one after another, various elite members from external sects and even the major families of the immortal sects had come to check.

The knowledgeable monk welcomed them.

Of course, if they could also donate some incense money and buy some consecrated treasures, that would be even better.

Su Ping immersed himself in the merit stele.

As soon as he touched the stele, Su Ping felt as if he had put on a virtual reality helmet. A large number of exchangeable items pages appeared before his eyes, categorized in great detail.

Su Ping quickly browsed through the items that could be directly exchanged on the merit stele.

The items here were varied, ranging from small spirit rice and spirit stones to spiritual weapons, divine techniques, and even ownership of certain spiritual veins.

As long as the merit was sufficient, the Great Golden Light Temple was willing to reward those who had made contributions.

"It seems that everyone is bleeding. Even if they attach great importance to it, most of the resources they bring out should be able to recover a lot for themselves!"

"The remaining resources are a great opportunity for countless low-level cultivators!"

"It's also my chance!"

Su Ping quickly found several items that were suitable for him.

Among them were fragments related to Foundation Building from the North Star Death Scripture Greedy Wolf Chapter.

There was a Qi Refining technique that could be cultivated from Qi Refining all the way to the peak of Foundation Building and then break through to Gold Core.

There were also thousands of templates for divine abilities to choose from.

It was only then that Su Ping realized that supernatural abilities couldn't be learned just by reading books.

Each set of supernatural abilities requires specific conditions, auxiliary formations, and most importantly, the seed of the supernatural ability, in order to have a high probability of mastery.

In addition, there are some strict conditions for certain supernatural abilities, which have special requirements for physical constitution, bloodline, and even the environment in which one grew up.

The Great Golden Light Temple was relatively fair and didn't separate and sell these things.

They would also provide a red warning when introducing them.

After Su Ping finished reading all the exchangeable supernatural abilities, he pondered for a moment and looked at the third most meritorious supernatural ability on the supernatural ability list:

[Thousand Arms and Ten Thousand Arms Great Freedom Divine Soul Manifestation Supernatural Ability]

This is one of the supernatural abilities from the Great Golden Light Temple's heritage. Those who cultivate it can condense the Buddha's manifestation of the Tathagata, and the disciplinary monks can condense the Asura's manifestation. It has a great reputation in the Western Desert.

After reading the description of this supernatural ability, Su Ping felt that it was very suitable for his combat style.

The thousand arms and ten thousand arms are all condensed by psychic power, and with proficiency, one can manipulate them like their own arms, with many wonderful uses!

Under the completion of Qi Refining, this supernatural ability can condense nearly a hundred psychic hands.

As long as Su Ping thinks about being able to look down on his enemies with disdain in the future, he can simply say "trash" and hundreds of psychic hands of different sizes will appear in the void, holding weapons ranging from automatic rifles to Gatling machine guns, from rocket launchers to rapid-fire cannons, aiming at the opponent.

Su Ping understood.

This supernatural ability is destined for me!

"This supernatural ability definitely has a promising future!"

"After Foundation Building, I will be able to manifest thousands of arms as described, and with Gold Core, I can reach ten thousand arms, and even form a divine soul manifestation according to my state of mind!"

"I may not be able to manifest the Tathagata's manifestation and the Asura's manifestation, but manifesting the Bodhisattva's manifestation of Great Compassion and Great Mercy at a rate of 36,000 times per second is not bad, right?"

"The weapons I can use can also become bigger and bigger. I can even borrow the main guns of battleships or even artillery from trains!"

"And because it is a supernatural ability, the speed of the psychic arms is related to my cultivation level, so it can keep up with the speed of cultivators of the same realm!"

"Firing at close range against the opponent's physical body, I don't believe that it can be dodged!"

Su Ping was very excited in his heart, until he looked at the price and was quieted down by the several zeros.

"Good things are always more expensive, even if they only provide the template and introductory assistance for the supernatural ability, and don't take care of anything afterwards, it still requires a lot of merit."

"Fortunately, I have a whole world supporting me, and no one shares the merit with me. I can slowly accumulate enough merit."

Su Ping took a few deep breaths in excitement, left the merit monument, and left the temple satisfied.

After the guest monk saw Su Ping off, he returned to his room.

A few minutes later, an exquisitely drawn portrait of a white crane boy was drawn by the monk and handed it to the abbot.

The old abbot looked at the portrait and furrowed his brows slightly.

"We have never seen such a genius in this realm."

"If we had seen him, we would definitely not forget!"

"If it's a disguise, the merit monument should have reacted... So, is it really the disciple who listens to the wind and observes the moon while the immortal crane is in flight?"

"It's strange. How come I haven't heard of a place that can cultivate such a young cultivator?"

"Alas, I must be getting old. Maybe my channels for obtaining information have been blocked?"

The old abbot fell into self-reflection.

Su Ping, on the other hand, played the role of the White Crane Boy and, relying on this identity, began to sell the five demonic beasts he had hunted last time!

These demonic beasts were not weaklings activated by waste pills. Even if they were taken to a restaurant, they could only be sold as discounted special dishes.

Whether it was the Mountain Sprite or the Demon Wolf, they were loved by the wealthy merchants of the Golden Cloud Mountain Market.

Especially the imaginative Giant Ape, it was sold for a price higher than the other four combined!

Su Ping wasn't afraid of being discovered, as these demonic beasts had been neatly cut and prepared.

Buyers could only tell that certain parts of the demonic beasts had been struck by tremendous force.

There were also a few similar magical artifacts, such as flying swords and hammers, although not many.

As for secret techniques and secret arts, there were even more.

Everyone bought them to make money, and no one suddenly went crazy and wanted to study how these demonic beasts died.

If there were those with such research spirit, they shouldn't be here, but either locked up at home or in the Immortal Sect's Daoist Academy.

After selling the five demonic beasts in the later stage of Qi Refining, Su Ping's spiritual stones reached an unprecedented height.

It was fortunate that it was a large market like the Golden Cloud Mountain Market.

Otherwise, if it were placed in the Nine Leaf Mountain Market, a single demonic beast in the later stage of Qi Refining would probably drain the circulating funds of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower.

Su Ping entered a beautifully decorated and grand market restaurant for the first time.

However, he did not dine there, but chose to pack various foods and spirit liquor.

The spirit liquor mainly consisted of different types of spirit rice wine.

Perhaps it was also related to the fact that spirit rice was a rare crop that had been improved without pollution.

The wealthy customers who could afford to come to such a place probably knew a thing or two about its secrets.

Su Ping left the restaurant and went to other shops to continue his large-scale purchases.

In the distance, several young men and women from the same cultivation clan were hesitating as they watched the figure of the White Crane Boy.

"Brother, I found out that he is an outsider cultivator."

"But I heard from Junior Brother that this cultivator seems to have both physical and magical cultivation, and he has reached the later stage of cultivation!"

A young boy with a flushed face, like a monkey, quickly ran over to inform the leading male cultivator.

The male cultivator dressed as a swordsman was momentarily stunned, then immediately shook his head and gestured for his subordinates to disperse.

Those who had both physical and magical cultivation were monsters, and their small clan couldn't afford to provoke them!

Similar to this young male cultivator.

The merchants who bought the materials of the White Crane Boy's demonic beast might not have ill intentions, but the people below them were a bit envious.

It was only after they inquired about the true abilities of this seemingly harmless Daoist that they suddenly realized why they couldn't sense the specific cultivation level of this Daoist.

At that time, they thought it was a disguise spell or a magical tool.

But they didn't expect that he was actually a master!

And such a young master!

Can't afford to provoke! Really can't afford to provoke!

Su Ping, who had money, also bought a large amount of alchemy, refining, and talisman-making books and materials.

But he didn't buy any waste pills along the way.

With the help of Little Daoist Zhou Xuan, who was dedicated to seeking the Dao, Su Ping believed that he could completely sustain himself with waste pills.

After that, Su Ping specifically found a medicine shop and found that they no longer sold body tempering medicine packs.

However, they had a better body tempering auxiliary medicine called Body Tempering Spirit Liquid.

Unlike the body tempering medicine packs available in the mortal world, this specially made Body Tempering Spirit Liquid could only be bought with spirit stones.

And the effect was worth the money. As long as the physical cultivator could bear it, a bottle of Body Tempering Spirit Liquid was equivalent to the effect of ten packs of body tempering medicine packs in the early stages of body tempering.

The key was that unlike the body tempering medicine packs, which became weaker as the body tempering cultivation level increased, the effect of the Body Tempering Spirit Liquid could still be felt even at the peak of body tempering!

Su Ping was always generous when it came to enhancing his own strength.

He took out a large number of spirit stones that were still warm from his storage bag and exchanged them for all the Body Tempering Spirit Liquid in the shop, leaving the pharmacist in astonishment, finally encountering a wealthy customer!

After the large-scale purchase, Su Ping left the mountain gate of the Golden Cloud Mountain market.

After summoning the Spirit Rats Little White and Little Grey, Su Ping frowned slightly.

He had been so generous and open-handed, so why were there fewer and fewer people tracking his gaze?

Sigh, it seemed that he wouldn't encounter a way back home and then take the opportunity to turn the tables.

But it didn't matter. After selling the materials of the demonic beasts, this large-scale purchase had already allowed him to buy a large amount of cultivation resources and related materials.

Even if he obtained some things from robbing cultivators, it would just be an extra gain.

Su Ping began to return along the same path and, after entering a dense forest, circled around a few times.

From the other side of the mountain forest, Su Ping emerged and finally restored his disguised true form, rushing towards the direction of the Golden Sparrow City.

Meanwhile, in the Golden Cloud Mountain market.

The influence brought by Su Ping gradually disappeared.

It was only in the evening that the Foundation Building cultivator stationed here casually glanced at the briefing handed to him by the people below after finishing his meditation.

After pausing on the words "White Crane" for a moment, he marked it as interesting and let it go.

As a Foundation Building cultivator and a respectable member of the immortal sect, he wouldn't take action for just a few materials.

Moreover, in his opinion, a sect that could cultivate such disciples, no matter how small, should have a Foundation Building cultivator backing them up.

It was a time when there were many troubles, so it was better not to cause a rift between fellow cultivators!
