Cultivating Immortality: Starting from Ferrying Passengers

Chapter 114 Sixth Level Perfection
It exudes a captivating aura.

As Fang Jingxuan looked at the various spiritual materials and items poured out on the table, this was the only thought that popped into his mind.

As expected of someone who makes money through shady means, Fang Jingxuan, as the leader, estimated that he could get at least half of what these people got every time they succeeded.

Fang Jingxuan checked the items one by one and finally found that there were three magical artifacts among them, as well as four other items.

Aside from the most valuable item, there were also quite a few other pills, talismans, spirit stones, and spiritual materials. All in all, this leader actually had a stockpile of seven thousand low-grade spirit stones.

If we add the assets of the previous individuals, Fang Jingxuan acquired 11,000 low-grade spirit stones in one go this time.

A bumper harvest, an absolutely bumper harvest.

After Fang Jingxuan figured it out, he was overjoyed. Only then did he truly understand what it meant to be a murderer and arsonist who would wear a golden belt.

The four cultivators' savings accumulated over more than a decade were all transformed into their own resources in less than a quarter of an hour.

Looking at the wealth on the table, Fang Jingxuan decided on his next course of action: if he had money, he would stay home and cultivate, accumulating various trump cards.

If it weren't for Liu Gu's Flying Head Soul-Suppressing Technique, Fang Jingxuan wouldn't have been able to kill them all so easily, one by one with his mace.

The Zhenyue Mace is powerful, but it's not exaggerated to the point that it can break through the opponent's protective magic shield, protective talisman, and protective magic artifact in a single strike.

Fang Jingxuan relied on the supernatural power of the Six Bones. Without the help of the Six Bones, Fang Jingxuan would have had to tell Tuoyuan to run away quickly.

After all, his own cultivation level had only reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Having figured all this out, Fang Jingxuan began to plan how to sell these supplies.

Some pills and spiritual materials could be sold by Wang Xinyu; these were common items that wouldn't attract attention.

I don't need any pills to aid my cultivation at the moment, and five pills a day is already quite a lot, so it's more worthwhile to exchange them for spirit stones.

However, these magical artifacts and their companions are somewhat sensitive. After all, Red Leaf Workshop is not that big, and very few magical artifacts and their companions are the same. If they were to be released into the market and recognized, the fact that he had killed five people in a row might be exposed.

Fang Jingxuan was unsure whether the four cultivators Wu Laosan had summoned were local residents from the Red Leaf Workshop area.

If they were just wanderers, that would be fine. But the real problem is that these four people have legitimate identities on the surface, but are secretly engaged in robbery and cultivation. This would mean that these four people have friends, relatives, and partners.

If they recognize this magical artifact and their fellow practitioners and then come after me, that will be a disaster.

Fang Jingxuan thought about this situation and felt it was necessary to plan ahead. These magical artifacts and related items could no longer be sold to magical artifact shops in the market as casually as before.

Let's wait a bit, avoid this period, and at the same time, improve our cultivation level.

The expenses during this period can be covered by the pills and spiritual materials that have been sold.

After taking inventory of all the supplies, Fang Jingxuan used magic to burn all the useless items to ashes, and then scattered the ashes into the pool to completely destroy all traces of the bodies.

Over the next two weeks, Fang Jingxuan entrusted Wang Xinyu to slowly sell all the pills and spiritual materials, which brought back nearly three thousand low-grade spirit stones.

With this money, Fang Jingxuan returned to his previous life, meditating and cultivating every day, drawing talismans to refine his body. His biggest worry was what to eat the next day.

Spring has passed and winter has come; more than a year has gone by in the blink of an eye.

The days of peaceful cultivation always seem to pass by quickly. Fang Jingxuan recalled that he seemed to have spent the same time last year.

The fish in the pond in the courtyard have grown plump and strong after being fed for several years; they probably can't all be stewed in one pot.

As he casually scattered some cheap spirit rice, Fang Jingxuan's mind wandered to other things. For over a year, he had been diligently cultivating every day, accumulating five cultivation points daily without fail.

Today, after more than four hundred days of cultivation, I have finally reached the perfect state of the sixth level of Qi Refining.

However, the bottleneck between the sixth and seventh levels of Qi Refining is not easy to overcome.

Fang Jingxuan sighed and looked at the attribute panel.

[Real name: Fang Jingxuan]

Age: 27

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 6 (2100/2100)]

[Innate Divine Abilities: [Moonlight and Jade Dew], [A Sudden Inspiration], [Cicada's Hidden Form for Replenishment]]

[Talisman crafting: Guiding Talisman, Cleansing Talisman, Silence Talisman, Evil-repelling Talisman, Arrow-avoiding Talisman, Lightness Talisman, Explosion Talisman (Perfect), Protective Talisman: 58/100]

[Body Refinement Technique: "Green Wood Nourishing Body Technique", Green Wood Bark, Vine Meridians, Cloud Pine Strength (Completed), Earth Vein Body: 9/100]

The current panel data is impressive compared to the previous two years.

Regarding talismans, I currently focus on protective amulets, which sell very well on the market and are in high demand.

What is commendable is that his body refinement progress has also skipped over the vine meridians and cloud pine strength, and reached the earth vein body stage.

Once the bark of the greenwood is perfected, it can provide a constant layer of protection to the skin, with an effect equivalent to a hard vine shield.

The vine meridians slightly expanded his own meridians, increasing the speed of his internal energy circulation.

This reduced his cultivation speed from three hours a night to two and a half hours.

Although it's somewhat useless, it can still provide some incense and candles needed for cultivation, which is better than nothing.

Yun Songjin can imbue his magical power with an inexhaustible flow; although the total amount remains the same, the speed at which his energy returns increases.

The grade of "Green Wood Nourishing Exercise" is not high, and Fang Jingxuan had anticipated that the first few stages would be somewhat useless.

He mainly valued its last effect, which was the Green Wood Longevity Body!

The Green Wood Longevity Body technique can extend one's lifespan by ten years. As Fang Jingxuan grew older, he became more and more eager for these life-extending techniques.

I'm already twenty-seven in the blink of an eye. Thinking back to when I was ferrying passengers, I was only twenty-three. These past four years have flown by.

After a few sighs, Fang Jingxuan stared intently at the numerical values ​​after reaching the sixth level of Qi Refining. Without breaking through this bottleneck, his cultivation could not increase, and he could only watch helplessly as he grew older and wasted his time.

If you can't break through this bottleneck before the age of thirty, then...
Countless cultivators have regretted their entire lives because of this bottleneck between the mid-stage and late-stage Qi Refining realms.

Fang Jingxuan himself wasn't entirely confident about passing the test; he had little faith in himself if it came down to luck.

No, we need to proactively solve this problem. We can't just sit and wait for a natural breakthrough; who knows how many years that will take?

Thinking of this, Fang Jingxuan's gaze hardened. It seemed he had no choice but to make a trip to this long-rumored black market.
