Mortal: Dual-Body Transmigration, Proving the Dao in Two Realms

"The [Winged Fire] technique? This building certainly has it, but I wonder what grade you require, fellow Daoist?" The young man looked at Chen Ming with a half-smile.

"Do you... have any third-grade cultivation techniques?"

Chen Ming hesitated slightly, but finally asked the question.

if it is possible.

He still wanted to see more orthodox and advanced cultivation methods that could lead to a longer path.

"Of course there is." The young man nodded. "It's just that the spiritual resources are probably beyond your means. But since you are my first client to have my divination done, I'll give you a preview."

The young man reached out and beckoned.

Three fiery red beams of light flew out from the staircase on one side and landed steadily in his hand.

Those were three thin jade pieces.

Each jade piece is engraved with intricate and mysterious inscriptions, making it look extremely extraordinary.

"Fellow Daoist, you can use your divine sense to see a preview of the internal cultivation technique."

With a flick of his sleeve, the young man sent three jade pieces flying toward Chen Ming.

Chen Ming's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not refuse. He took all three jade pieces into his palm and then slowly explored the inside of the jade pieces with his divine sense.

Just as his divine sense came into contact with the jade piece.

A stream of information immediately flooded into his mind through his divine sense.

"The Jade Fire Immortal's Study of the Dragon Lord's Book is a high-grade, third-rank book suitable for the [Wing Fire] and [Beak Fire] paths. It can also cultivate [Room Fire] and [Tail Fire]..."

"The Precious Platform Furnace Fire Record, Grade 3, Lower Level, suitable for alchemy..."

"The Sovereign Flame Technique, Rank 3, Lower Stage, is a legitimate cultivation path. With a solid foundation, it can lead to the Foundation Establishment stage..."

All three methods are orthodox cultivation paths.

only.....

When Chen Ming saw the final price of the cultivation techniques in the preview, even though he was very envious of these three techniques, his enthusiasm cooled considerably because of the price.

There's no need to elaborate on the Jade Fire Immortal's View of the Dragon Lord's Book; as the only third-grade upper-level cultivation technique, the required spiritual resources are almost astronomical.

This method can be ruled out.

The prices of the remaining two techniques are equally prohibitive.

The complete Treasure Terrace Furnace Record requires a full ten thousand spirit stones to sell, while the Sovereign Flame Technique, though less, still requires nine thousand spirit stones!

"Ten catties of treasure fish only cost one spirit stone, but ten thousand spirit stones would require a hundred thousand catties of treasure fish. I'm afraid the entire mountain and lake region would struggle to catch that many treasure fish every year, right?"

Chen Ming clicked his tongue in amazement.

His plan to exchange the treasure fish for a cultivation technique seems to have fallen through. He'll just have to find a first or second-grade cultivation technique to study first.

At worst, he can return to this world after his mortal cultivation level has improved.

He refused to believe that he wouldn't be able to afford a new cultivation technique by then!

"So, fellow Daoist, would you like to purchase one?"

The young man asked with a smile.

"Alas, I am truly short of funds and fear I cannot afford it," Chen Ming replied with a sigh.

"Actually, fellow Daoist, you don't need to think about buying the whole book. After all, the whole cultivation technique involves three major realms. If you buy it one chapter per realm, the spiritual resources will be much cheaper."

The young man nodded, summoned all the jade pieces back, and said casually.

"One chapter per realm?" Chen Ming was slightly taken aback, then his eyes lit up. "May I ask, fellow Daoist, how much spiritual resources are needed for a cultivation technique at the Nourishing Essence Realm?"

"The Qi Nourishing Realm is cheap, costing only a hundred spirit stones."

The young man replied without hesitation.

The Nourishing Essence Realm is the beginning of all realms. Although it is not as important as the Breath Control Realm, it is still highly valued by many cultivators.

Therefore, even the price of the Nourishing Yuan Realm cultivation method is not something that ordinary cultivators can afford.

They say it's cheap.

This is only in relation to the complete manual.

But Chen Ming was still overjoyed upon hearing this.

He was still very unclear about the cultivation path in this world, so it was impossible for him to immediately switch to the cultivation path of this world.

top priority.

It would be better to acquire a cultivation method to understand the path of cultivation in this world, and then make a choice after you have understood it.

therefore.

Whether it's a third-grade or second-grade cultivation technique, it makes little difference to him!

"What about the Nourishing Essence chapter of the second-grade cultivation technique?" Chen Ming asked hurriedly.

"A second-grade cultivation technique?" The young man was slightly taken aback, not understanding why there was such a sudden shift, but he still gave his answer: "One spirit stone will suffice."

Upon hearing about the spirit stone, Chen Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He also had a semi-spirit fish on his boat, which was worth at least ten times more than an ordinary treasure fish. It should be enough to buy a second-grade cultivation technique, the Nourishing Essence Chapter.

"I would like to trouble you, fellow Daoist, to recommend a second-grade cultivation technique for me."

......

What followed was extremely simple.

On the young man's recommendation, Chen Ming quickly found a second-grade upper-level cultivation technique that caught his eye. After saying goodbye, he hurriedly returned to the boat and retrieved the half-spirit fish.

The price of the semi-spirit fish did not disappoint him.

According to the young man, a true spirit fish can assist cultivators in their practice, and because of its gentle effects, it is very popular, with just one fish being worth five spirit stones.

Although Chen Ming only had a semi-spirit fish in his hand.

But since it was associated with the word "spirit," it was eventually acquired by the young man for the value of a spirit stone.

of course.

Chen Ming definitely didn't take that spirit stone; instead, he exchanged it for a second-grade, high-level cultivation technique called "Earth Lava Fire."

The money and goods were settled.

Having achieved his goal, Chen Ming did not linger in the market.

After saying goodbye,

He returned to the pier and left the Treasure Island Market by boat with Ah Lok.

And not long after he left.

Suddenly, a look of surprise flashed across the young man's eyes. He quickly went up to the third floor of the bamboo building, a floor no one had ever been to before, and poured all his magical power into a certain array node on the third floor.

In an instant.

All the restrictions hidden deep within the shop were activated.

From the outside...

The bamboo house remains the same bamboo house.

On the third floor, a large amount of light emanated, transforming the entire floor into a dazzlingly bright place.

Buzz, buzz.

Amidst the flowing light, a blurry figure slowly materialized. At first, the figure lacked any sense of agility, but as the youth spat out a mouthful of blood and sprinkled it onto the flowing light...

The figure seemed to possess self-awareness, its eyes, gleaming with light, fixed on the youth, and a deep voice emanated from it: "Deyuan? Has something terrible happened that even the light projection array has been activated?"

Chen Deyuan first bowed respectfully, and then said, "Reporting to the Ancestor, the Immortal Jade finally reacted today, but it was on a cultivator of mixed qi."

"What?!"

Upon hearing the words "Immortal Jade," the figure's voice rose several decibels, then quickly regained its composure, though it still trembled slightly: "Tell me in detail, recounting every single thing without omitting a single word or adding a single phrase!"

"yes!"

Chen Deyuan understood what this matter meant and quickly recounted the entire story in detail.

"You did a great job on this matter! It seems that the family made the right decision by having you oversee the Treasure Island Market. Continue to oversee the market in the future, and the family will do its best to provide you with resources. If that person comes again, don't do anything unnecessary; just be on good terms with him."

"As long as you proceed step by step, you have a good chance of reaching the Purple Mansion realm, and your family can produce a True Monarch who has attained Dao!"
