Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman

Chapter 119: Chapter 99: Body Refining Eighth Layer! (Request for Monthly Tickets)_2

Of course, this was only in terms of physical fitness; skills and experience still needed to be accumulated.

Little Taoist Zhouxuan felt that he had greatly improved his divine skills and, quite happily, he sparred aimlessly by the lakeside for a while.

He even stamped out several small pits in the grass.

It was not until he saw the Spirit Summoning Civet cat and tried to wrestle with it, only to be flipped heels over head by a civet cat smaller than his knee, that Zhouxuan came to his senses and realized he had been bewitched.

“What kind of abilities do I have if I can’t even defeat a civet cat, and I was already becoming smug!” thought Zhouxuan to himself. “Zhouxuan, oh, Zhouxuan, you’re supposed to be cultivating immortality for eternal life.”

How could I allow myself to grow lazy over such a small achievement?

Zhouxuan quickly got up, bowed and thanked the Spirit Summoning Civet cat, and then continued with his farming and alchemy!

Meanwhile, within the Spirit Light Fish Pond, accompanied by the eruption of a savage aura,

the Big Black Fish, which had continuously absorbed the false dragon blood of the Flowing Patterned Fake Dragon Fish and digested it for cultivation, finally broke through a certain limit thanks to the Purification Spirit Medicine that Su Ping had graciously bestowed to eliminate various defects.

In an instant, it jumped three levels and became equivalent to a Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer Black Dragon Fish Beast!

Woosh!

After frantically absorbing spiritual energy and swallowing the massive amounts of high-energy food like fatty meat and white sugar that Su Ping had prepared,

the Big Black Fish’s Chi Wen evolved to over five meters in length!

Combined with its wide back, it was just barely suitable to carry people.

Aided by the boost of the Dragon Species bloodline,

Su Ping felt that it shouldn’t be inferior to a tiger shark if it was in the sea.

“Looks good. Next time I go to Mysterious Turtle Island, I won’t need a fishing boat,” Su Ping said.

“But don’t get arrogant. I’ve given you so many resources,” he added.

“Next time, if you don’t break through to the late stage of Qi Cultivation, and if your size doesn’t double, you’re still going to be my one-fish-nine-meals!” Su Ping said indifferently and as soon as he finished speaking,

the recently self-satisfied Big Black Fish whined and sank back into the Spirit Light Fish Pond to immerse itself in cultivation.

Su Ping looked towards the Spirit Light Fish Pond.

As a small fish pond, it housed three Green Spirit Fish and one Flowing Patterned Fake Dragon Fish.

There was only one quota left for the special fish catch of Pot Cave Heaven.

Fortunately, even if there were extras, it would only be without additional strengthening. It would still be possible to continue stuffing the Spirit Fish into the pond to raise them.

After arranging the production and layout within Pot Cave Heaven,

Su Ping returned to Frost Moon Villa.

The Immortal Sects were becoming chaotic again, but the Mortal Realm’s Golden Sparrow City seemed not to have been affected yet.

Refugees started to settle outside the city and under the generous donations of the wealthy families, preparations for spring plowing were underway.

The monks from Little Golden Light Temple also came once, stating that the prayer effects were excellent and that the Array was operating normally.

It shouldn’t be long before a batch of Sealing Magic Artifacts could be retrieved.

This news excited the high-ranking officials who had remained in the city. Some hoped to use this to gain merits and then apply to their families for a change of personnel.

Su Ping heard all this and was excited himself. He felt that he could soon go back and check out the Sealing Magic Artifacts in his hometown.

Maybe he could retrieve a batch and exchange them for Merits, right?

He hoped that everything would go smoothly without any mishaps!

With that, he could slowly expand the range of his Merit Fields.

After the monks from Little Golden Light Temple left,

Su Ping began another week of fishing.

This time, two sessions of First Tier fishing amounted to 110 refreshes, and he fortuitously caught rare fish on both occasions!

Along with catching the second Flowing Patterned Fake Dragon Fish at the library’s Fishing Point,

he also got a surprise on the last attempt at Frost Moon Lake’s Fishing Point:

[Fishing experience gained +1]

[Red Blood Rainbow Carp +1]

[Current fishing level: 4 (1330/2000)]

“The third Red Blood Rainbow Carp!” Su Ping was elated, as this was even more important to him than the Flowing Patterned Fake Dragon Fish he had obtained earlier.

After all, although the Flowing Patterned Fake Dragon Fish could be utilized continuously, it required time to accumulate.

The Red Blood Rainbow Carp could take effect immediately and had an all-round impact on his Qi Cultivation and Body Refining, enhancing both significantly.

Without hesitation, Su Ping immediately consumed the Red Blood Rainbow Carp.

He now possessed one-third of the Ten Directions Annihilation Body!

With this boost, Su Ping felt a surge of warm blood throughout his body, as his divine sense, strength, and physique were all enhanced, and he stepped into the realm of Body Refining Eighth Layer!

This seemed like just a small realm at the later stage of body refining, yet it often stalled a great number of people for their entire lives.

How many Outer Sect deacons struggle to advance beyond the seventh layer of the late stage their whole lives?

Accepting the fact of his breakthrough calmly, Su Ping didn’t rush back to his hometown but chose to close his eyes and retrieve the memories of the rodent group within the territory of Golden Sparrow City, as planned.

He continued to maintain the stability of this territory.

During this time, Su Ping had encountered evil cultivators and tribulation cultivators passing through.

He generally wouldn’t take action against those who were just passing by.

But if they intended to hide in the territory of Golden Sparrow City and cause trouble,

then they couldn’t blame Su Ping for declaring that they were on the path to death.

An hour later.

By the bank of a great river.

A bewildered red-clothed female cultivator leaned against a big tree, in disbelief as she looked at the corpses by the riverbank.

The ten or so corpses, at the very least, were those of loose cultivators at the first layer of Qi cultivation.

The three strongest were foreign cultivators in the middle period of Qi cultivation.

Their presence had overwhelmed the red-clothed female Outer Sect disciple on a mission, causing her to lose the battle quickly and be captured while unconscious.

But unexpectedly, upon waking up, she was shocked to find that those tribulation cultivators… had all turned into corpses lying on the riverbank.

It seemed a master had passed by… and saved her?

The red-clothed female cultivator pieced together the cause and effect, and after giving thanks in the direction of the savior from a distance, she left the scene.

In the woods, Su Ping, who easily concealed his presence with divine sense, watched the female cultivator leave and then turned his attention back to the corpses of the tribulation cultivators.

He had already taken their storage bags and any valuable items.

As for the corpses…

After pondering, Su Ping decided to send out rats with burning bottles to incinerate them thoroughly.

Regarding the female cultivator, Su Ping had no intention of playing the hero to save the damsel in distress.

That she hadn’t died before he arrived was merely a stroke of fate smiling upon her.

She deserved the help of such a great benefactor as him.

Planning to head to Water Blue Star soon, Su Ping found a cave and opened his storage bag to check the spoils of this victory.

This time’s tribulation cultivators were clearly not the loose cultivator organization from before.

Upon opening the storage bags, Su Ping unsurprisingly found evidence.

Several bags contained Skill Transmission Jade Scrolls belonging to disciples of another sect, the Water Moon Sect.

And the leader was even an elite Inner Sect disciple!

However, an elite disciple at only the fourth layer of Qi cultivation also matched the scarce resources of a small sect like the Water Moon Sect.

From the letters, Su Ping learned why they had suddenly become tribulation cultivators.

It turned out that their sect in the Southern Desolate had been destroyed by a powerful enemy who had obtained a fortuitous encounter not long after they had responded to the recruitment order.

Becoming drifters without a foundation, they had planned to complete missions well in the hope of finding a new power to attach themselves to.

However, chaos ensued in the Immortal Sect, and a great battle resulted in the strongest members of their sect turning to dust.

Frightened out of their wits, they decided to turn to the life of tribulation cultivators on the spot and ran to the Mortal Realm to gather enough resources before escaping to observe the situation from the safety of the Overseas Islands.

“These guys should have merits, right?”

“Forget it, such merits would only bring trouble if I took them; it’s better to exchange them for pills straightforwardly.”

“Besides, this time, apart from spirit stones, demon beast meat, and spiritual rice and medicines, there was an unexpected surprise.”

Su Ping found a special jade scroll emitting a purple light in one of the storage bags.

This jade scroll could only be read with divine sense.

After reading it, he discovered it was the fundamental cultivation technique of the Water Moon Sect, the Water Moon Invisible Skill.

This technique led directly to Foundation Establishment Perfection.

It had no special requirements for the nature of one’s Spirit Root; naturally, it was best if one had a water series Spiritual Body, but it could be practiced even without one.

The only difference was the speed of cultivation.

As long as one could take pills to speed up cultivation, it wouldn’t be much of a problem for Su Ping.

To Su Ping, this technique was significantly better than his own basic technique.

And most importantly,

After reaching Qi Cultivation Great Perfection, he wouldn’t need to specially find a Foundation Establishment Technique.

Merits could be used to exchange for more useful things,

Like – the Foundation Establishment chapter of North Dipper Greedy Wolf and the remaining two chapters of Breaking Army and Seven Killings from the North Dipper Death Injection Scripture.

Su Ping felt that, possessing a Sacred Body and Purification Spirit Medicine, he deserved to have a such an Ancient Divine Skill like the North Dipper Death Injection Scripture!

Perhaps, in this increasingly peculiar world of Immortal Cultivation, he might already be the only cultivator suitable for practicing the Ancient Divine Skills of the North Dipper Death Injection Scripture and the Southern Dipper Life Injection Technique!
