Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

After saying that, she turned and left in a hurry, as if she still had many things to deal with.

Qian Duo breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest: "That scared me to death. Brother Yan, you're really my savior."

He activated his identity badge, and a light screen projected out, displaying a 3D map of the outpost.

"Area A is over here, hey, it's pretty close to the central trading area. Come on, Yan-ge, let's go check out our mansion!"

The two walked through the bustling corridor and arrived at Area A.

The environment here is significantly better than in other areas, with spacious and bright passageways.

The alchemists who occasionally passed by didn't seem as panicked as the people outside.

He possesses a strong spiritual energy.

Clearly, this place is inhabited by experts.

The door to room A-07 was a heavy metal door. Qian Duo swiped the nameplate, and the door slid open silently.

Inside is a small suite with two bedrooms and a living room, along with a separate cultivation room and washroom.

The furnishings were simple, but complete and very clean.

"Not bad, not bad," Qian Duo said, sitting down on the sofa with satisfaction.

"It's much better than I expected. Brother Yan, you rest first, I'm going out for a walk to gather some information."

Lin Bai controlled "Rock" to enter the cultivation room and sat down cross-legged.

Although Qian Duo is timid and cowardly, he still has some sense.

Upon arrival, supplies and intelligence... these became the foundation for his subsequent actions.

......

More than an hour later, Qian Duo came running back excitedly.

"Brother Yan! Brother Yan! I've found a great place!"

He started yelling as soon as he walked in.

"explain."

Qian Duo said to himself:

"There is a huge trading market right at the intersection of Zone B and Zone C."

"They sell everything there! All sorts of alchemy materials, potions, and even stuff they've stripped from cultivators in the Xuanming Realm!"

By the end, Qian Duo's eyes were shining.

"Flying sword, robe, storage bag, and cultivation manual!"

"Cultivation techniques for cultivators—these are extremely rare!"

Kung Fu!

Lin Bai's heart stirred.

This is exactly what he needs most.

Although the Power Body is already at the ninth level, it was built up by relying on the flesh and blood of the Crimson Beast and the Fire Element Fruit, and its foundation is not actually very solid.

Moreover, his fighting style remains the most brutal form of punching and kicking.

If one could learn the body-refining techniques of the Xuanming Realm cultivators and systematically organize and utilize this brute strength, one's combat power would definitely reach a new level.

This is also one of the reasons why he chose to send his power-based body here.

"Let's go take a look."

"Yan" stood up and spoke succinctly.

"Okay!"

Qian Duo eagerly led the way.

Just as Qian Duo had predicted, the market was bustling with activity.

This place is more "human" than other parts of the outpost, but it's also more chaotic.

Simple stalls lined both sides of the passageway, with a cloth spread on the ground and filled with all sorts of things.

There are minerals that shimmer with an energy-like luster, and plant roots whose names I don't know.

There were fragments of flying swords, broken but with runes still glowing, as well as some animal hides and bones that reeked of blood.

The sounds of hawking and bargaining filled the air.

"A protective mirror just stripped from a disciple of the Netherworld Sect! Completely intact! Only five thousand gold coins!"

"The crystal core of the seventh-tier magical beast, the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf, can be exchanged for a bottle of high-level mental recovery potion."

"Buying all kinds of talismans from the Xuanming Realm, bulk discounts available!"

Lin Bai controlled "Rock" as he moved through the crowd, his gaze sweeping over each stall.

Qian Duo followed beside him, constantly introducing things like a tour guide.

"Brother Yan, look, that's a cultivator's storage bag. But I heard it's covered in restrictions, which are hard for us alchemists to open. We have to find someone to break the restrictions, and they charge ridiculously high fees."

"And that's a cultivator's robe, it comes with a built-in defensive array, it's much better than our combat uniforms."

Lin Bai's attention, however, was completely elsewhere.

His gaze was searching for something—a martial arts manual.

Soon, he stopped in front of a stall in a corner.

The stall owner was a one-armed man with a weathered face, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, resting.

His stall didn't have many items, just a few broken religious artifacts and an old-fashioned book.

On the book's cover, three characters were written in the script of the Xuanming Realm.

"The Power of a Wild Bull".

This thing...

"Boss, how much is this?"

Qian Duo was very perceptive. Seeing Lin Bai looking at the cultivation manual, he immediately stepped forward and asked.

The one-armed man opened one eye, looked at them, and then closed it again.

"Ten thousand gold coins, no bargaining."

"I bought it." Qian Duo said almost without hesitation.

For him, there is a lack of everything, but there is no lack of money!

Upon receiving "The Mighty Bull," Qian Duo immediately and respectfully handed it to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai made no attempt to hide anything and simply flipped it open.

The pages are rough, as if they have undergone some special treatment, and the paper is extremely tough.

The text above is not the common language of the alchemy world, but the ancient seal script of the Xuanming world.

However, this is not a problem for alchemists.

With a mental scan, the translation and analysis were completed quickly.

"The Power of a Wild Bull".

The opening doesn't present any mysterious or profound techniques, but rather the most direct method for body refinement.

How to mobilize qi and blood, how to strengthen muscles and bones, and how to use specific power generation techniques to accumulate power layer by layer, ultimately unleashing a force far exceeding one's own limits.

The book also includes illustrations of oddly shaped little figures, with the routes of qi and blood circulation marked.

It's very basic, even rudimentary.

But... it works.

Lin Bai immediately made a judgment in his mind.

His current power is like a huge reservoir, full of water, but with only a simple outlet.

The power is immense, but its application is extremely crude, relying entirely on brute force.

Although this book, "The Power of the Bull," is simple, it provides a method for the application of strength.

Indeed, the Power Body Technique is the most suitable for the path of physical cultivation!

Lin Bai's heart stirred slightly, and he put away the cultivation technique.

Qian Duo, observing the situation from the side, saw that this big shot seemed quite satisfied with the item, and was pleased as well, so he quickly said:

"Brother Yan, shall we wander around some more? See if there's anything else?"

"Yan" nodded.

The two continued to walk through the noisy market.

Ores, herbs, fragments of magical artifacts, monster materials...

These things were not to his liking.

He then saw several more similar cultivation techniques.

There is a book called "Turtle Breathing Technique" that teaches people how to control their breath, making their heartbeat and breathing extremely slow, and entering a state similar to suspended animation.

There is a book called "The Spirit Gathering Technique," which is a very basic breathing method that absorbs free-floating energy from the world to gradually strengthen oneself.

These are all cultivation techniques for refining Qi, not the body-refining techniques he truly needs.

The market was quite large, with over a hundred stalls, but there were very few martial arts techniques available.

And without exception, they were all these low-quality, basic items.
