The Mortal's Path to Immortality

The scattered cultivators around cried out in surprise, and asked themselves, if it were them, they would probably not be able to escape being attacked and killed.

Cao Rui and Ye Yunyin repeatedly observed this scene several times and concluded that the scattered cultivator's cultivation level should be at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage.

Ordinary people in the late Qi Refining Stage cannot practice the first-level sword control technique to this level.

Only those in the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage can barely start to learn the sword control technique.

After the scattered cultivator was killed, a man in a black robe with his head and face covered appeared in the bushes.

He flashed to the corpse of the scattered cultivator, touched the corpse, and took away the storage bag.

Other scattered cultivators nearby saw this scene and began to shout loudly.

The black-robed man used the magic sword, flew up with a somewhat unskilled sword, and flew away into the distance, and soon disappeared at the limit of the formation's vision.

"It shouldn't be a demon cultivator."

"It's a casual cultivator who got tempted by the profit." Cao Rui said softly.

As soon as these words came out, the casual cultivators around breathed a sigh of relief.

The demon cultivators were really too terrifying.

Ye Yunyin took out a bead, which was called the 'Air-Intercepting Bead'. It looked like a black transparent bead with a pointer inside.

This was a 0-level disposable magic weapon, and it was worth several spirit stones on the market.

The Air-Intercepting Bead could intercept a part of the residual mana of the environment and the cultivators for tracking.

Ye Yunyin found the scene of the replay, where the thief cultivator hid in the bushes, and intercepted a part of the residual mana through the Air-Intercepting Bead.

The Air-Intercepting Bead quickly reacted, and the pointer inside pointed out the direction.

Cao Rui invited Ye Yunyin to get on the back of the black feather together.

Black Feather took off again, the wind under his wings surged, bursting out with a terrifying instantaneous speed, and under the gaze of many casual cultivators, he chased in the direction pointed out in the Qi-intercepting bead.

Black Feather's instantaneous speed was more than ten times slower than that of the thief cultivator's sword-controlling speed.

In just half a quarter of an hour, Cao Rui and Ye Yunyin saw the thief cultivator.

The thief cultivator also sensed Black Feather's existence, turned around and fell into the forest, trying to escape him.

Black Feather directly burst out his demonic power to accelerate and fly up, grabbing him with one claw.

The thief cultivator was also quite unwilling to control a magic shield to block in front of him, but in front of the second-level spiritual bird, it was just a show of skill before an expert, and the magic shield was directly knocked away by Black Feather's claw.

Hei Yu grabbed the thief cultivator with his claws and easily lifted him off the magic sword. Hei Yu's demonic power flowed into his body and blocked his magic power.

"Master Cao, this beast provoked my Spirit Beast Sect. What's the point of keeping him alive if we don't kill him?" Ye Yunyin asked.

Cao Rui shook his head: "This is the first time that a murder and treasure-stealing incident has occurred in our market. This beast came to our door, which is a good opportunity to establish our authority."

"Take him back to the market and behead him in the street."

"In the future, if other bad and unscrupulous cultivators have the idea again, they will also consider whether they can withstand the pursuit of our Spirit Beast Sect."

Ye Yunyin nodded after hearing this: "This is a good idea."

Immediately, Cao Rui asked Hei Yu to return.

At the same time, he notified Zhang Mo to prepare for the execution.

There is no need to behead cultivators after autumn. Killing them now is the kingly way. Otherwise, with the cultivator's level, it is easy to change if it is delayed.

It was noon.

The sun was high in the sky, and the sunlight shone hotly on the streets and buildings of the market, making the whole market bathed in bright light.

In the center of the market, a temporary execution platform was particularly eye-catching.

Many casual cultivators gathered under the stage, and they looked at this special scene curiously.

On the stage, a thief cultivator was tied to a wooden pillar, his face was pale, and his eyes revealed fear and despair.

Cao Rui stood in front of the execution platform. This time, he would be responsible for the execution himself!

Cao Rui looked at the thief cultivator in front of him with cold and firm eyes.

Suddenly, Cao Rui raised the magic sword, which shot out like lightning, crossed the air, and cut the thief cultivator in two from head to toe with one sword.

Blood gushed out and splashed on the execution platform, and the bloody smell filled the air.

"This is the fate of killing people and stealing treasures in Qingling Market, and challenging the dignity of our Spirit Beast Sect!" Cao Rui used his magic power to transmit his voice, and the sound reached the ears of every casual cultivator present.

Cao Rui's words were a warning, allowing the casual cultivators present to feel his determination.

Then, Cao Rui took out the storage bag from the thief and held it high in front of everyone to show it.

"This is the storage bag of the thief. The market will not swallow it up, and it will be handed over to the victim's family." Cao Rui announced.

This move caused a commotion among the casual cultivators present.

Some people began to discuss and expressed their appreciation for Cao Rui's approach, believing that such a fair handling method could maintain the order and fairness of the market.

Cao Rui's actions not only showed his dignity as a disciple of the Spirit Beast Sect, but also showed everyone that Qingling Market had a zero-tolerance attitude towards killing and stealing treasures.

At the same time, returning the stolen storage bag to the victim's family also showed that the market was fair and responsible.

Zhang Mo led the family of the casual cultivator who had just been called - his Taoist partner's wife to the stage, and Cao Rui handed the storage bag to the female cultivator.

"Thank you, Master!" The female cultivator thanked him and took the storage bag, but the next moment she couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry.

She and her Taoist partner have been making a living by planting spiritual fields, working diligently. Now it's hard to expand the area of ​​spiritual fields, and the increase in output can be exchanged for more cultivation resources, and it is possible for their own cultivation to go further.

I can see hope on the road of cultivation.

I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen.

Cao Rui also sighed slightly. Such murders and treasure-stealing incidents often happen in the world of immortal cultivation and cannot be avoided.

This Taoist couple is indeed pitiful, but giving them a storage bag for stealing cultivation is the greatest help.

Cao Rui had seen the things in the storage bag before. As expected of a stealing cultivator, it is worth thousands of spirit stones.

If used properly, it is enough to greatly improve the cultivation of the female cultivator in front of him.

Cao Rui's move won the favor of the casual cultivators in the market.

After the incident, the stealing cultivator was caught in less than half an hour; in addition, he was responsible for the family of the victim.

Once the incident was spread, the popularity of Qingling Xiuxian Market rose again.

......

This day.

The alchemy room on the seventh floor of the cultivation tower.

Cao Rui opened the alchemy furnace, and there were 20 freshly baked lotus pills inside.

Cao Rui waved his hand gently, and all 20 Lotus Pills flew towards him.

Cao Rui opened his mouth slightly, and all 20 Refining Pills entered his mouth.

The medicinal power turned into a torrent, and was absorbed by the experience beads in Cao Rui's mind.

Mingyu Gong experience beads finally reached one tenth!

"Experience beads, give me a breakthrough!"

Cao Rui spoke softly.

Buzz.

The experience beads turned into a purple torrent, pouring into Cao Rui's deep consciousness, body and limbs...

This is a breakthrough from the ninth level of Qi Refining to the tenth level of Qi Refining.

A breakthrough from the late stage of Qi Refining to the Great Perfection Realm, a great realm breakthrough.

It has a great change on the cultivator's body.

A moment later, Cao Rui opened his eyes after the promotion, and a flash of spiritual light flashed in his eyes.

"The range of spiritual awareness has increased from 30 meters to 50 meters."

"The magic power has increased by half, and it is more refined."

"With the cultivation level of the tenth level of Qi Refining, the cultivation speed should be greatly improved when practicing first-level spells."
