Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 134 Benefits delivered to your door?

The material of the pages of the mysterious jade book is a bit strange. It feels slightly warm and rough to the touch.

Rather than saying it looks like spiritual jade, it is more like it is made from the skin of some high-level spiritual beast.

Ling Changqing slowly turned the pages of the jade book. This thing was thin and tough, and had great capacity for accommodating the magic power of cultivators. It had a total of sixty-four pages.

On the last two pages of the jade book, there are two third-order space-shifting talismans, emitting a faint spiritual pressure.

“…I see. I understand!”

Considering the methods that the female cultivator named Ma used to fight her enemies when she was alive, Ling Changqing has already deduced the purpose of this special magical weapon.

Using all kinds of talismans and magical powers to fight the enemy is a common method used by middle and lower-level cultivators. After all, they generally do not have powerful spiritual weapons or magic weapons to use.

However, the activation of the talisman requires a certain reaction time, although this time is extremely short.

However, the fighting between monks was extremely dangerous, and the difference between life and death could be a matter of a split second. Being even a little faster could bring a decisive advantage.

Moreover, casting talismans also consumes a certain amount of mana. If too much is used in a short period of time, cultivators below the Golden Core stage will find it difficult to cope with it.

The function of this mysterious jade book is to contain all kinds of talismans and magical powers. When it is used against the enemy, it can activate and pour out dozens of talismans in an instant!
The immortal version of Metal Storm...

Of course, Ling Changqing is still only in the middle stage of foundation building and cannot fully unleash the power of this mysterious jade book. He can only allow it to accommodate various second-grade top-quality talismans.

But even so, it is enough to establish Ling Changqing's absolute advantage in the foundation-building stage, and he can defeat even a fake Dan Zhenren.

That female cultivator was a fake Dan Zhenren, so she could make the mysterious jade book accommodate various quasi-third-level and third-level talismans.

Even for a True Dan cultivator, it would be extremely difficult, or even impossible, to withstand the bombardment of dozens of third-level magical spells when caught off guard.

But it is still a little difficult to face a Jindan Zhenren who possesses defensive magic weapons. At most, the female cultivator can protect herself.

No wonder this Poison Widow robbery gang is so notorious and has been running rampant for many years without any incident.

With this special magical weapon, the female cultivator surnamed Ma has far greater combat power than ordinary Zhendan cultivators. In addition, she has a group of subordinates to help her. It is rumored that even one or two Jindan real people have been killed by her by means of sneak attacks.

Thinking of this, Ling Changqing couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Fortunately, I didn't plan to fight her head-on, otherwise I wouldn't know how I was killed.

If she had not been provoked and insisted on hunting down Ling Changqing in such a dangerous and unpredictable environment as the deep sea, resulting in her being besieged and killed by many ferocious creatures, she should have been able to live freely for many more years.

Of course, this should be the interference and suppression of the mysterious destiny, which blinded her mind for a moment and made her make such a regretful decision.

After playing with it in his hand for a while, Ling Changqing put the mysterious jade book away with great care. This thing could be used as his trump card, a means to turn the tables and save his life at the critical moment.

Then, Ling Changqing picked up the female cultivator's flying sword again. The sword body covered with fish scale patterns was slender and graceful, shining with a faint purple light, and the sharp sword intent was implicit.

This is a first-grade magic weapon, named "Purple Maple". Ling Changqing took great pains to erase the soul imprint restriction inside and put it away.

With his current level of cultivation, he is not able to use magic weapons, and even top-grade spiritual weapons are a bit difficult for him, so he can only put it aside for now and try it at least until the later stage of foundation building.

There were more than ten well-preserved magical weapons and spiritual artifacts left, ranging from the initial grade to the upper-middle grade and the best grade. After Ling Changqing looked at them, he also put them into the storage bag.

The next step was to deal with these storage artifacts. Ling Changqing naturally did not dare to be careless. He first took the storage bag of the fake female alchemist and asked Jiyuan Xinggong to check it. After confirming that there were no hidden dangers, he began to erase the restriction mark on it.

A moment later, with a slight explosion, the storage bag was filled with brilliant light and shadow, and the last mark of the restriction finally disappeared.

Ling Changqing carefully opened the storage bag and began to check the items inside.

"...As expected of a robbery cultivator, he is truly too rich!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Ling Changqing couldn't help but sigh after seeing the valuables inside.

The storage bag has a huge space. Not to mention other things, there are hundreds of large golden nanmu boxes filled with low-grade and medium-grade spirit stones.

In addition, there were nearly a hundred bottles of various first- and second-level elixirs, almost a mountain of spiritual medicines and herbs, rare spiritual gold, talismans and magical instruments, some jewelry and women's clothing, a large pile of scattered jade books and slips, etc.

Not to mention other people, he felt that even Ling Qiyue now might not have such an exaggerated wealth.

It can be seen that being a robbery cultivator is really a lucrative profession, provided that one can live long enough and succeed enough times.

After sorting out the things in the storage bag, Ling Changqing indeed found the jade slip that recorded the mysterious jade book's ritual method.

The rest of the jade slips record dozens of skills and magical powers, with different grades. Some of the contents are incomplete, and they should have been contributed by the monks who died in the past.

Although most of the skills and magical powers were not of high grade, Ling Changqing looked down on them. However, after returning, handing them over to the family treasury would enrich the Ling family's foundation, and he would also receive a large amount of meritorious contributions.

After dealing with the wealth left by the female cultivator named Ma, Ling Changqing continued to deal with the remaining storage bags.

It took him almost a whole day to break open all the storage instruments and count the valuable items inside.

"...If I didn't have so many concerns, I would have wanted to change my career and become a robbery cultivator!"

Ling Changqing muttered that it was mainly because these guys had too much money, so even he, who was not short of money, couldn't help but feel jealous.

After cleverly utilizing the terrain and relying on those deep-sea monsters to wipe out an entire gang of robbers, Ling Changqing's wallet, which was almost empty, became full again.

This place is not too far from Fu Yuezhou Market. Ling Changqing once wondered whether he should turn back and purchase another batch of resources, and at the same time sell some of the stolen goods that he could not use.

But after thinking about it, I decided to give up. The gains from this trip are already great enough, and there is no need to create more trouble.

Those robbery cultivators might have friends and old acquaintances in the market. If they were to find out, the consequences would be extremely troublesome. Ling Changqing put aside his thoughts and controlled the flying boat at full speed. Half a month later, he successfully arrived at the sea off Hanyuezhou.

This was the second stop of his trip, mainly to complete some intelligence transactions for Ling Qiyue and to understand the changes in the situation within Hanyue Sect.

After all, this is the Jindan force closest to the Feiyu Sea. Any movement of it may affect the future development plans of the Ling family in Changqingzhou.

When approaching the outer area of ​​Hanyuezhou City, Ling Changqing put away the flying boat and landed on the ground, walking towards the gate of the huge city that was shining with spiritual light and protected by a large formation.

Thinking back, the last time he came here, he was only at the sixth level of Qi training. Now, after many years, he is back to visit the old place and has become a foundation-building cultivator.

At the city gate, the Hanyue Sect cultivator on duty felt the foundation-building spiritual pressure from Ling Changqing, and his expression suddenly became more respectful. He took the spiritual sand and let him pass.

After entering the market town, Ling Changqing followed his past memories and came to Fu Yinxue's mansion.

The guard on duty at the door actually remembered what he looked like. He was surprised and immediately went in to report to his master.

So after a moment, Ling Changqing was happily welcomed into the study by this female cultivator in a green dress with a cold temperament and a face as delicate as snow.

"...Fellow Daoist Ling is indeed a very intelligent person, with a lot of luck and fortune far beyond that of an ordinary person. He has already reached the middle stage of foundation building in such a short time."

Sitting in the main seat, the beautiful lady opened her red lips slightly, her voice was mellow and pleasant, and her graceful figure under her thin skirt was full of curves.

"Thank you for the compliment, fellow Taoist. Actually, I just got some luck while traveling. It's not a big achievement!"

Ling Changqing said with a smile.

The true level of cultivation of this beauty should have reached the Golden Core stage. Her whole body is enveloped in spiritual light, and there are more than ten obscure fluctuations of magic power.

As expected of a figure from that mysterious organization, he is not only wealthy, but also possesses certain special resources far beyond those of ordinary cultivators.

Fu Yinxue looked at the beautiful young man in purple with a smile on her face. When they first met, she had sensed that he was extraordinary.

At that time, she wanted to poach Ling Qiyue, even if it would affect her relationship with Ling Qiyue.

But Ling Qiyue was not fooled, and she had no chance to be alone with Ling Changqing, so she had to give up.

But now, since the other party came here alone, this is a rare opportunity. Maybe I can try again?
"Ling Qiyue and I have been close friends for many years,"

Fu Yinxue smiled and said, "There is no one else here, so you and I might as well call each other senior sister and junior brother."

Ling Changqing nodded: "I came here this time to discuss the purchase of a new issue of intelligence with you on behalf of the family, and to repay some of the previous loans."

When you come to visit someone, of course you have to deal with business first.

"Well, that's easy. I've been cooperating with the Ling family for many years, so there's no problem in this regard."

Fu Yinxue nodded slightly, took out two jade slips with bright light from the storage bracelet on her fair wrist, and asked the maid beside her to present them to her.

Ling Changqing took it and glanced at it quickly. The content was mainly information about the Hanyue Sect and the situations of many small forces in the Feiyu Sea.

Especially the movements of the Bai family, the Yuan family and Yulong Island.

Of course, due to the rapid rise of the Ling family, these forces, including the Hanyue Sect, can no longer threaten the survival of the Ling family.

"...The eruption of the underwater super volcano group, the emergence of the new land Changqingzhou, and Ling Qiyue's successful entry into the Jindan realm were all far beyond my expectations,"

Fu Yinxue sighed with emotion: "It seems that even God is really blessing your Ling family. Perhaps after hundreds of years, the nine great families in Yuzhou will become ten, right?"

In her opinion, Feiyu Sea will sooner or later become the territory of the Ling family, and even Hanyuezhou and Fuyuezhou will probably not escape the fate of being annexed by the Ling family in the future.

Ling Changqing smiled and said: "Senior Sister, your words are a bit exaggerated. The top families in Yuzhou all have Yuanying Zhenjun in charge, and maybe even old monsters in the Shenhua period. How can the Ling family compare?
By the way, it’s rare for me to come here, Senior Sister, why don’t you sell me some of the internal intelligence of those major forces in Yuzhou?"

As Changqingzhou continues to grow and develop, it will sooner or later attract the attention of the top leaders of the major forces in Yuzhou, so it is necessary to prepare for the future.

Anyway, he had just made a windfall, so Ling Changqing could afford the price.

Fu Yinxue was slightly startled, then nodded: "Since Junior Brother Ling wants this kind of information, then let's follow the rules!"

The nine great families that occupy the top of the food chain in Yuzhou's immortal cultivation world, their every move is naturally closely watched by the outside world, and the information related to them has never had trouble selling.

According to Fu Yinxue, the intelligence is divided into seven levels from high to low, depending on the level of detail and confidentiality, with corresponding prices.

"...With the current level of the Ling family, there is actually no need to purchase high-level intelligence data, because it is not very meaningful!"

Fu Yinxue said gently: "I think that if you choose the fourth-level intelligence data, it will meet your needs at this stage."

The fourth level of intelligence already includes the sphere of influence of the nine major families, the composition of internal factions, the list of important members, past historical origins, the clan’s important artifacts, the distribution of key industries, etc.

As for going further up, it involves strong people at the level of Yuanying Zhenjun, which makes the value of intelligence data soar.

Ling Changqing had no objection: "Senior Sister, your opinion is very good, so let's make it like this, right?"

Fu Yinxue took out nine jade scrolls from her storage bracelet and placed them one by one on the table in front of her. She looked at Ling Changqing with her beautiful eyes:

"Even if it is fourth-grade intelligence data, its value is not cheap. You, Junior Brother, will have to pay the price of 600 middle-grade spirit stones.

However, if you are willing, I can give you this information for free, as long as you..."

Ling Changqing's expression changed slightly and he shook his head: "I'd better pay the spirit stones!"

Is it so easy to get this kind of benefit that comes right to your door? You will probably lose yourself in it!
