Translator: 549690339
Apart from the distribution of power around the Thick Earth Sect, He Song also learned about the sales of skills and cultivation techniques.
In the Cultivation World.
Cultivation techniques are not actually worth much.
High-level cultivators can create techniques at will, leading to a myriad of attributes in methods and their widespread availability.
Additionally, the general price of such techniques is usually around one hundred spirit stones, which isn’t particularly expensive.
However, within the sphere of influence of major sects and aristocratic families.
The methods of their sect or family become incredibly affordable, almost to a point where it’s hard to believe.
For example, the Thick Earth Formulas that He Song himself cultivated were created by a powerful member of the Thick Earth Sect and could be cultivated to Golden Elixir Perfection.contemporary romance
But within the sphere of influence of the Thick Earth Sect, a Thick Earth Formula that could be cultivated to the ninth-tier Qi Refining only required one spirit stone.
This situation is not uncommon.
Almost all the sects will act in this manner within their sphere of influence.
Mainly because there are many benefits to it.
First, almost all sects or aristocratic families will have back-up plans within their methods once cultivated to the Qi-refining late stage, requiring the purchase of unique resources within their sect in order to progress quickly.
Not buying them? Then watch as others advance rapidly while your own cultivation speed remains incredibly slow.
In this way, they can constantly extract spirit stones from loose cultivators.
Second, after cultivating the methods of their sect, if a loose cultivator happens to break through to Foundation Establishment, joining the sect becomes their best option.
No need to change their cultivation method, no need to abandon their hometown, and the sect even provides higher-tier methods as gifts.
In this way, the temptation for loose cultivators to build a foundation is enormous.
Third…
It is precisely because of these benefits that the Thick Earth Formulas become so cheap within the sphere of influence of the Thick Earth Sect.
Other techniques in the Spirit Skill Pavilion, however, require a hundred spirit stones per technique, which is relatively expensive in comparison.
As for skills.
Most skills are monopolized by sects and aristocratic families.
The skills that are put up for sale to loose cultivators naturally won’t be too profound.
Qi Refining stage skills are relatively complete in number because their power isn’t significant.
But once Foundation Establishment is reached, the chances of obtaining Foundation Establishment skills drop drastically.
Only by joining a sect or an aristocratic family can one have access to a complete set of Foundation Establishment skills.
However, even so, there are restrictions within the Transmission Jade Slip for Qi Refining stage skills that prevent the transfer of learned skills to others.
That’s why Ping’er didn’t instruct anything previously and just left.
Skills purchased can only be used by oneself.
As He Song read, he became deeply engrossed in the books before him.
Various common knowledge about the Cultivation World flooded into He Song’s mind, giving him a deeper understanding of the Cultivation World.
For several days in a row, He Song would come to the Spirit Skill Pavilion to read the books, other than performing the Spirit Rain Skill in the spirit field every day.
Naturally, he also became more familiar with this Cultivation World he was in.
…
This situation continued until a few days later.
On this day, a row of bright lights appeared beside He Song.
Like dancing yellow bean-sized lamps, they illuminated He Song’s surroundings.
Putting down the book in his hand, He Song contentedly turned his head and looked around.
At this moment.
The outside world was growing dim.
In the Spirit Skill Pavilion, numerous lamps lit up the large room, making it almost indistinguishable from daylight.
Seeing this scene, He Song didn’t bother to think; he immediately went towards the exit of the Spirit Skill Pavilion.
After a few days of reading, He Song had already finished examining all the books about the common knowledge of the Cultivation World inside the Spirit Skill Pavilion.
It could be said that He Song’s knowledge about the Cultivation World was now on par with family cultivators or even sect disciples.
Leaving the Spirit Skill Pavilion.
The stall section outside was already empty, with most of the stall cultivators having left.
Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion did not have a curfew at night, but who knew what kind of dangerous people were lurking in the darkness?
Although the Law Enforcement Team patrolled at night, there would always be blind spots.
Not going out at night had almost become an unspoken rule among cultivators.
Passing through the stall section.
Since the stall section was not far from He Song’s residence.
As a result, He Song hurried back and made it to the front door of his house before it was completely dark.
However, just as He Song was about to open the door and return to his room, a sudden rush of footsteps sounded from behind him.
“Tap tap tap!”
The rapid footsteps closed in quickly.
Hearing the sound, He Song’s expression changed drastically.
For several days in a row, He Song had been returning home at this time without encountering any danger.
Initially, he was cautious every day, but today he inevitably became careless.
He felt regretful in his heart— he should have been more vigilant at all times!
The sudden appearance of footsteps, and considering their direction, seemed to be heading straight for He Song.
Although He Song was in a rush, he managed to take out two crumpled Thick Earth Amulets from his sleeve, but before he could activate them, the sound had already reached his side.
In an instant, a gust of wind blew by, and He Song detected a pungent smell of blood coming from the tip of his nose.
A feeling of being preyed upon by a ferocious beast caused He Song’s eyelids to twitch.
The faint spiritual pressure coming from this person beside him made He Song shudder.
This person was not someone he could resist!
However.
Just as He Song subconsciously wanted to activate the Thick Earth Amulet in an attempt to buy some time to wait for the Law Enforcement Team to rescue him, a voice suddenly sounded from beside him.
“Mr. He, don’t worry, it’s me, Lin Cong.” Lin Cong’s voice was somewhat weak, not as deep and strong as it had been during their previous encounter.
But at this moment, He Song showed no signs of relief.
With the spirit power gathered within his body, a surge of spirit power quickly flowed into the Thick Earth Amulet in his hand.
Almost in the blink of an eye, an earthy-yellow barrier enveloped He Song entirely.
This was the defensive barrier that would appear after activating the Thick Earth Amulet.
Although the barrier seemed fragile, its defensive power was strong, and even a Qi-refining mid stage cultivator would need some time to break it.
For a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator to break this barrier, it might not be so simple.
Having done all this, and being assured of his own safety, He Song finally relaxed and turned his gaze to the person in front of him.
It was indeed Lin Cong.
He was the powerful loose cultivator who lived next door to He Song and had previously greeted him, making a living by hunting demonic beasts.
Right now, although Lin Cong’s stature remained as burly and robust as ever, his expression seemed a bit dispirited.
Upon closer inspection, He Song noticed that Lin Cong appeared to be seriously injured.
There were bloodstains, like splashes of raindrops, across Lin Cong’s chest, which was the source of the pungent smell of blood that He Song had detected earlier.
Apart from that, He Song also found that there seemed to be a sunken part on Lin Cong’s chest. There were no signs of bleeding from the wound, but it seemed to have hurt his internal organs.
Seeing Lin Cong’s weakened state, He Song’s heart finally settled.
Thankfully, the danger was not directed at him.
