Mortal Cultivation to Immortality: I Have 108,000 Techniques

The harbor on Kuixing Island was as bustling as ever.

Numerous ships of various sizes come and go in and out of the port, shuttling back and forth.

Various colored lights flashed from time to time; these were the escape lights of cultivators, which mortals were used to.

This day.

A long white streak flew swiftly through the air, swept past the port, and headed straight for the vast sea.

Within the white rainbow was a flying boat, upon which stood two figures.

It was Zhang Yi and Yan Ruyan who came from Tiannan.

After Zhang Yi seized Yan Ruyan, he left behind the spiritual herbs and pills he had obtained from the Yan family.

The remaining materials and spirit stones, though valuable, were not of any interest to him, so he simply handed them all over to Liu Jing.

Liu Jing handed it over to Li Huayuan, hoping to distract the attention of those Core Formation cultivators and prevent them from targeting Zhang Yi.

"Junior Sister Chen and Xin Ruyin should have already obtained the Gold-Eating Insects."

With these thoughts in mind, Zhang Yi's flying boat arrived outside a city surrounded by tall walls.

He felt the flying boat sink and slowly descend involuntarily.

In places where cultivators gather, there are usually anti-flight restrictions.

Zhang Yi put away the flying boat, and he and Yan Ruyan each used a lightness spell to head towards Kui Xing City.

The two headed straight for "Tiandu Street," the most bustling street in the city.

The so-called "Tiandu Street" is actually the northern area of ​​Kuixing City, which is shrouded in a huge barrier, distinguishing it from shops run by ordinary mortals.

The shops in this area are more financially powerful, and the items they sell are more valuable.

It can be said to be the largest market town in the southwestern part of the Chaotic Star Sea!

Tiandu Street has more than a hundred streets of varying sizes, with square stone houses of roughly the same size on both sides, each with a plaque.

Numerous cultivators were coming and going from the various shops, creating a lively atmosphere.

Zhang Yi had anticipated this and was not surprised.

Yan Ruyan kept looking around.

Her doubts grew stronger, and she couldn't figure out what Zhang Yi's purpose was.

Zhang Yi quickly walked into a secluded street and stopped in front of a shop.

The shop was closed at the moment, and it seemed that it had not yet opened for business.

"Mingwen Pavilion, this is the place."

He pushed the door open and went straight in.

There was only one female cultivator in the Qi Refining stage in the hall, who was holding a scroll and reading it with great interest.

"Sirs, our shop is temporarily closed to customers. We apologize for the inconvenience."

As she spoke, the woman looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "Senior Zhang?"

She didn't ask any further questions about Yan Ruyan, who was standing next to Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi looked around the shop. "Where is Junior Sister Chen? We should leave."

Xin Ruyin smiled and said, "Sister Qiaoqian is going to buy materials and inquire about the situation of the surrounding talisman shops."

"We'll be selling talismans here, so we'll inevitably have to compete with other shops."

She seemed quite close to Chen Qiaoqian in her conversation.

Not long after.

Footsteps could be heard outside the shop.

Chen Qiaoqian finally returned and was overjoyed to see Zhang Yi. However, when she saw Yan Ruyan, her expression changed.

"Senior brother, who is this fellow Daoist?"

Chen Qiaoqian asked warily.

Chen Qiaoqian did not know Yan Ruyan, but Yan Ruyan had heard of Chen Qiaoqian.

Yan Ruyan was secretly surprised, "This is the beloved daughter of the Chen family patriarch!"

What are you doing here? What is this woman's relationship with Zhang Yi?

Yan Ruyan was filled with doubts.

"Junior sister, you don't need to worry about her."

Zhang Yi casually said, "Let's pack up and head to Tianxing City."

"Are the nautical charts for the southwestern sea area all ready?"

Chen Qiaoqian took out a jade slip. "What should we do with this shop?"

Zhang Yi casually took it and probed it with his divine sense.

Before returning to Tiannan, he instructed Chen Qiaoqian and Xin Ruyin to stay on Kuixing Island and capture the Gold-Eating Insects.

This Mingwen Pavilion was also opened by the two women at his instruction.

But he never thought of running a talisman shop on Kui Xing Island.

Mingwen Pavilion was merely a place to stay, used to conceal their true intentions.

Even Chen Qiaoqian didn't know that the intermediate-level talismans sold by the Chen family were made by Zhang Yi!

If Zhang Yi really wants to sell talismans in exchange for cultivation resources, he has to go to Tianxing City.

Zhang Yi had planned this all along.

To rapidly improve his cultivation level by practicing the "Three Elements Balance Chapter," he not only needs to consume elixirs but also requires many other materials.

He could only obtain these things in Tianxing City.

As for going out to sea to slay demonic beasts and using their cores to refine elixirs.

Zhang Yi will not do that for the time being.

Although the pills for Foundation Establishment stage are precious, they can still be bought with spirit stones.

Especially in Tianxing City, there are many cultivators, the commerce is prosperous, and resources from the inner and outer seas are gathered.

Zhang Yi doesn't need to worry about attracting attention when buying pills.

In ten to thirty years, he will be able to cultivate to the point of obtaining a false core!

Then he can cultivate the "Manifest True Essence Pill" supernatural power, condense the power of the three lights, and successfully form the Golden Core!

Six months later.

A white rainbow streaked across the sky above a certain sea area.

As Yan Ruyan urged the flying boat forward, she gazed listlessly at the sea.

She tried to communicate with Chen Qiaoqian and Xin Ruyin more than once to find out about the situation in Luan Xinghai.

but.

No matter what Yan Ruyan said, Chen Qiaoqian ignored her and even showed hostility towards her.

Xin Ruyin remained completely silent.

"For now, we can only take it one step at a time."

Yan Ruyan thought helplessly, "If I run away, Zhang Yi will definitely not let my family off the hook!"

If she could abandon her clansmen far away in the south, she might be able to find an opportunity to escape.

However, she had been nurtured by her family since childhood and was loved by her teachers and elders. She could no longer sever her ties with her family.

Furthermore, she couldn't figure out Zhang Yi's intentions, nor did she know what he would do to her.

Without any danger to her life, she naturally dared not make any rash moves.

Zhang Yi saw this point, which is why he has kept Yan Ruyan alive until now.

Otherwise, he would have killed the woman with a single sword stroke long ago. Although the effect of refining pills with a corpse would be somewhat reduced, it would still be better than letting her escape and ending up with nothing.

According to the recipe for the "Rejuvenation Pill," the better the spiritual root aptitude and the higher the cultivation level of the cultivator used to refine the pill, the stronger the effect of the resulting pill.

therefore.

As long as Yan Ruyan doesn't resist, Zhang Yi won't take the initiative to attack.

He would even provide this woman with elixirs to help her improve her cultivation!

Zhang Yi slowly finished his practice and looked at the horizon where the sea and sky met.

With Yan Ruyan piloting the flying boat, he could concentrate on cultivating his skills while traveling.

His magical power didn't increase much, but he used the "Mysterious Spirit Refining Soul Technique" to temper his own divine sense.

Now his sea of ​​consciousness is more stable, and he can operate his divine sense more easily.

A blurry black dot suddenly appeared on the sea surface.

As the airship moved forward, the black dot grew larger and larger, gradually revealing the shape of an island.

This island is not only vast in area, but also has a giant mountain on it, which is like a pillar supporting the sky and soaring into the clouds, with a magnificent presence!

Tianxing City, the largest city in the Chaotic Star Sea, occupies almost the entire island. It is built around the central giant mountain in concentric circles.

There are also rows of buildings at the foot of the mountain, stretching all the way to the edge of the island.

Besides Zhang Yi and his group, many other cultivators, some riding in their escape lights and others riding spirit beasts, were also heading towards Tianxing City.

Zhang Yi gave Yan Ruyan a command, and the flying boat landed at the edge of the island.

A cultivator in white robes stepped forward and said with a smile, "Is this your first time visiting Tianxing City, fellow Daoists?"

A temporary stay costs only three spirit stones, while a long-term stay requires eight hundred spirit stones.

Zhang Yi raised his hand and tossed out a leather bag full of spirit stones. "We're all staying here for a while."
