Mortal: I'm in Tianxing City, intelligence updates daily.

midsummer.

Inside a simply furnished little house.

"Sea of ​​Chaotic Stars..."

"Tianxing City..."

"The Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars..."

"..."

Li Shizhou sat cross-legged on the bed, countless images flashing through his mind, gradually merging with his memories of his past life.

"I've been transported to the mortal world."

This was the conclusion he reached after sorting out his thoughts.

The original owner shared the same name as him, was nineteen years old, and had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining cultivation. He was a low-level rogue cultivator in Tianxing City.

His mother died early, and his father had reached the tenth level of Qi Refining, but his path to immortality had been severed. He poured all his heart and soul into his only son.

With her father's care in the past, the original owner's life was quite comfortable. She didn't need to worry about spirit stones and elixirs; she could simply focus on cultivation.

Little did they know that his father had gone to sea to hunt monsters a year earlier and never returned.

As a result, the original owner lost both protection and a source of spirit stones, and had no idea how to pay the rent for the cave dwelling next year.

Recently, the original owner encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation, and he was extremely anxious every day. During his cultivation, he accidentally went into a state of demonic possession and died.

The modern-day migrant worker Li Shizhou, who traveled from another time, usurped his place.

At this moment, Li Shizhou's face showed a mixture of joy and worry.

The good thing is that there is a slight possibility of longevity.

The worry is that this body has mediocre talent; although it has three spiritual roots, it is a "thick earth Dao body".

Simply put, after cultivation, the magical power in one's dantian is twice that of an ordinary person, but the price is that cultivation time is doubled.

"Do your best and leave the rest to fate. At least you can experience the dream of cultivating immortality once."

After pondering for a moment, Li Shizhou stopped worrying about it. After all, talent is determined by fate, and dwelling on it would only cause unnecessary distress.

He stretched his limbs, got out of bed, and pushed open the door. What came into view was a towering ancient tree with intertwined roots.

The original owner's residence was a small courtyard at the foot of the sacred mountain in Tianxing City, where eight rogue cultivators lived, separated by a simple defensive array, with an annual rent of five spirit stones.

It was dusk, and the setting sun was like blood. Before we could even appreciate the sunset over the cultivation world, a deep voice resounded throughout Tianxing City.

The volume wasn't loud, but it was extremely authoritative, instilling a sense of awe in people.

"The two celestial saints are blessed with a daughter, named Ling Yuling. All rogue cultivators in Tianxing City will be exempt from rent for six months."

Li Shizhou was taken aback at first, but then his expression turned to surprise and delight.

It wasn't because of the rent exemption, but because of the name "Ling Yuling".

As a devoted reader of "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality," he has read this book no less than five times.

The name "Ling Yuling" is very familiar.

This woman and Old Demon Han, one possessed a Heavenly Spiritual Root and the endless resources of the Star Palace, the other possessed a rare treasure.

When the two first met, they were both at the Core Formation stage, so their ages should be similar.

Ling Yuling has just been born, and Old Demon Han should still be in Tiannan.

When Han Laomo first arrived at the Chaotic Star Sea, his cultivation had just been drained by Nangong Wan, causing his cultivation level to drop to the Qi Refining stage, leaving him in a weakened state.

To be on the safe side, if he can cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage, he can wait at the teleportation array and perhaps the heaven-defying treasure, the little green bottle, will be his.

But when he thought about his own qualifications, Li Shizhou couldn't help but shake his head.

"The chances of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage are slim, so it's best not to provoke that evil star. Besides, Han Paopao is cunning and has many hidden cards. Even if he reaches the Foundation Establishment stage, he may not be able to get what he wants. It's best not to have anything to do with him."

After a brief moment of excitement, Li Shizhou calmed down, walked and thought, and left the small courtyard, crossing the bustling streets.

A majestic mountain came into view, with streaks of light rising and falling from it from time to time. This was the "Holy Mountain," the center of the entire Chaotic Star Sea cultivation world.

Just as he was awestruck by the spectacular sight in the distance, a golden, semi-transparent panel suddenly appeared before him, on which several lines of small black characters were clearly written.

[Daily Opportunity Information]

[Area: One li]

[An: The widowed cultivator next door is currently burning with desire. A day of dual cultivation with her might give you a chance to break through your current bottleneck.]

[Danger: Ding Jue, a rogue cultivator from Nine-Foot Lane, recently robbed and killed a Star Palace cultivator, obtaining over a hundred spirit stones and a hundred-year-old Black Spirit Grass. He is now using these as leverage to blackmail for several dozen more spirit stones.]

"Daily opportunity alert, is this the arrival of a cheat code?"

Upon seeing the small print that suddenly appeared before him, Li Shizhou was overjoyed. After carefully reading the contents, his heart began to beat faster.

He knew both Widow Jin and Ding Jue.

Widow Jin lived in the same courtyard as him. She was in her twenties, had the cultivation level of the eighth level of Qi Refining, and was quite beautiful.

Ding Jue lived in a lane less than twenty feet away. He was a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, around thirty years old, and looked like an honest and simple person.

To verify the authenticity of the information, Li Shizhou pulled his robes tighter and returned to the courtyard without stopping.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw a thinly dressed female cultivator in a red dress swaying as she walked out of the door; it was none other than Widow Jin.

"Oh, Shizhou, you've come at the perfect time! There are mice in someone's house. Could you help them catch them?"

The female cultivator in the red dress looked pitiful, and as she spoke, she patted her chest lightly, causing a ripple, as if she had been frightened.

"I'm busy."

Li Shizhou glanced at the female cultivator, then walked swiftly to his room, took out the restriction token, activated the formation, and quickly went inside.

It wasn't that he was indifferent to women, but rather that Widow Jin had a terrible reputation.

Every male in this courtyard has been seduced by her.

The female cultivator in the red dress watched Li Shizhou's retreating figure, her delicate brows furrowing as she chided him, "Hmph, so clueless about romance."

After she finished speaking, she stomped her foot, turned around, went back into the house, and slammed the wooden door shut.

Of these two pieces of information, the first one can be basically confirmed to be true; now it's time for the second one.

Li Shizhou took out a writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone from inside the room.

It read: "Fellow Daoist, you ambushed and killed a Star Palace cultivator, obtaining over a hundred spirit stones and a hundred-year-old Black Ling Grass. If you do not wish for your deeds to be exposed, meet me at the Gathering Immortals Pavilion at 1:15 PM tonight. No waiting for those who are late."

After he finished writing, he sealed it with a talisman and went out.

Tianxing City is a place where immortals and mortals live together, with a large number of mortals residing within its walls.

Li Shizhou went out and found a secluded place to change his clothes and cover his face. He then found an eleven or twelve-year-old mortal boy, gave him some silver, and asked him to deliver the note to Ding Jue's cave.

After doing everything, he changed back into his usual attire, found a tea stall near Juxianlou, sat down, and waited quietly.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, a young male cultivator with a gloomy face hurriedly walked past the tea stall where Li Shizhou was and entered Juxianlou.

This person was Ding Jue.

Li Shizhou, with his seventh level of Qi Refining cultivation, wouldn't be so foolish as to try to extort a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

Spirit stones are wonderful, but you need to be alive to enjoy them.

His purpose in extorting Ding Jue was not to fabricate a story, but to verify the authenticity of the intelligence.

Having obtained the result, he drank the tea in his cup in one gulp and walked back satisfied.

Now that he has the cheat code, Li Shizhou's desire for the little green bottle has faded considerably.

He planned to find the ancient teleportation array and destroy it once he reached the Foundation Establishment stage, so that the many opportunities in the Chaotic Star Sea would be his.

"Han Paopao, you should just stay in Tiannan."

Meanwhile, in the distant southern Yue Kingdom, countless miles away...

Beside the corpse of the black dragon inside the stone palace of the Crimson Forbidden Land.

A young man with slightly dark skin and an average appearance sneezed.

The girl in white next to him took a soft, round ball from his hand and gently stroked it a few times.

Suddenly, with a "poof," the sphere exploded on its own, and a cloud of pink smoke enveloped the two of them.

......

It was already night when Li Shizhou returned to the courtyard, and he slept soundly.

The next morning, he sat up and stretched comfortably.

Although he figured out the truth of the information on the panel yesterday, he didn't gain any real benefit from it.

The panel says the range is one mile, so it seems that opportunities can only be obtained nearby.

If you want to maximize your profits, you should go to the market.

Tianxing City Market is located on the first level of the Holy Mountain, only ten miles away from his residence.

At noon, Li Shizhou left the courtyard.

When we arrived at the market, it was already bustling with people, and the sounds of vendors calling out their wares filled the air.

He didn't go to the shops that sold cultivation resources, but went straight to the stall area.

After all, every shop has experienced cultivators overseeing the process, so the probability of obtaining an opportunity is extremely low.

The stalls, however, are different. Although they are a mixed bag, most of the people there are independent cultivators with limited knowledge, and they often make mistakes.

Based on yesterday's experience, the intelligence will be updated at 4:45 PM, which is what was referred to as 6:00 PM in the previous life.

The Tianxing City Market was enormous, occupying more than half of the first level of the Holy Mountain, with twelve stalls in total. He chose to stroll around the nearest area, the Ninth District.

Although he was just strolling around, Li Shizhou was not distracted. Instead, he carefully memorized the items he recognized at each stall.

As the sun set, the small black characters on the golden panel indeed changed abruptly.
