Chapter 96: Am I a rogue cultivator who has never seen the world?
If Yang Jiuli's divine sense reaches the second level, he will not only possess a vast divine sense power comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
It can also use the "Past Life Talisman" to continue controlling the "Immortal Body" (corpse) of Foundation Establishment experts.
Furthermore, if he were to use a secret technique and burn his divine sense, he might even have a chance to unleash a trace of the Core Formation power from his previous life.
But the cost would be too high.
Yang Jiuli would not easily use such a foundational secret technique unless absolutely necessary.
However, the three medicinal herbs that Yang Jiuli needed were extremely rare!
Even after he approached three different organizations, none of them had any stock.
Yang Jiuli was not in a hurry about this.
Yunmeng Lake will at least remain peaceful for a few more years.
After leaving the pill shop, Yang Jiuli arrived at the weapon pavilion of the Azure Flame Immortal Sect.
He was quite satisfied with the top-grade first-tier magic sword he had selected.
The sword is made of cold iron refined with purple copper and gold. It has a cold aura, but it also has a slight purple glow.
This sword cost Yang Jiuli a full 1,200 low-grade spirit stones.
The price difference between a top-tier first-class magic sword and a low-tier first-class magic sword is enormous.
In addition, Yang Jiuli spent nine hundred low-grade spirit stones to purchase a top-grade defensive magic artifact, a bronze bell.
This bronze bell not only has defensive capabilities but also offensive sound waves that can shake people's minds.
Caught off guard, even cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining would suffer mental and physical damage.
However, it had little effect on Foundation Establishment cultivators.
In addition to defensive magical artifacts, he also spent eight hundred low-grade spiritual time to purchase a top-grade flying magical artifact, the Green Wood Boat.
As for the spirit boat from before, he sold it.
Although Yang Jiuli could fly on a sword, it consumed a lot of his magical power.
This flying boat can be powered by spirit stones to extend its range, which is much more convenient.
As a result, Yang Jiuli had spent almost all of the spirit stones he had earned.
He had less than eighty low-grade spirit stones left in his storage bag.
"A top-grade magical artifact, so expensive!"
Yang Jiuli walked out of the artifact pavilion of the Azure Flame Immortal Sect, and upon sensing the empty storage bag, he couldn't help but sigh.
"That is..." Just then, Yang Jiuli raised an eyebrow.
His consciousness had just sensed a familiar figure in the gap between a nearby shop.
This person was Xu Jiang.
However, Xu Jiang did not come out this time. Instead, he walked casually towards the passersby.
"Oh? You're not going to keep bothering me?" Yang Jiuli touched the bridge of his nose, seemingly lost in thought.
He did not continue to buy treasures, but after wandering around the stalls on both sides of the street for a while, he left the Ozeyama Market.
outside the city.
Yang Jiuli summoned the top-grade flying magic artifact, the Green Wood Boat, leaped onto it, and flew rapidly into the distance.
This green wooden boat is 56 feet long. Although it is made of green wood, it looks like it was made of green jade and has a metallic luster.
In addition, the flying boat also has a pavilion.
It can be used for people to rest and cultivate while traveling.
Seeing the exquisite craftsmanship of the flying boat, Yang Jiuli bought it.
……
Just then, a burly man with a scar on his forehead flew out from inside the city.
Beside the scarred giant was a monk with a large mole and hair on his chin.
It was Xu Jiang who seduced Yang Jiuli.
As for the scarred man, he was at the ninth level of Qi Refining and was the man who followed Yang Jiuli into the city.
He is known as Lin Zheng.
His real name is Zheng Cha.
In just a few breaths, they flew over the swamp a kilometer outside the city.
"Where is he?" Zheng Cha looked around, his eyes flashing with a cold, fierce light.
"They've already flown away!" At that moment, another shifty-eyed cultivator flew out from outside the city.
This cultivator was none other than the one in hemp robes who had accidentally bumped into Yang Jiuli at the Chen family's Pill Pavilion.
This person's name is Zheng Shu, and he is at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
"That little brat, it flies so fast!" Zheng Cha said coldly, staring at the distant sky.
"It seems this kid has traded in for a top-grade flying magic artifact," Zheng Shu said. "But don't worry, boss, this kid has the 'Moonlight Fragrance' I left behind. Second Brother is already lying in ambush outside; once he finds the scent, he can ambush him beforehand!"
"Yes!" Zheng Cha nodded.
At that moment, he summoned a crimson jade flying boat.
Xu Jiang and Zheng Shu flew into the flying boat together.
At this moment, Zheng Shu moved his hand, and a small white sable appeared in his palm.
The little sable twitched its nose and locked onto a location, which was precisely the direction Yang Jiuli was flying.
"Over there..." Zheng Shu said.
Zheng Cha immediately poured spirit stones into the flying boat, using the power to activate the array patterns on the boat, and flew forward at high speed.
call out!
The flying boat flashed and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.
Outside the market town of Ozeyama is a swamp.
Beyond the vast swamp, towering peaks begin to appear.
Just as Yang Jiuli was piloting his flying boat through a mountain peak, two emerald fireballs suddenly flew towards him from the front.
He immediately steered his flying boat to escape.
Just as I dodged, several more golden blades slashed towards me from the side.
The flying boat immediately flashed with light patterns, evolving into a defensive light shield.
Clang!
Several golden blades struck Yang Jiuli's flying boat's protective shield, the powerful impact causing the flying boat to fly backwards for more than ten meters.
It was tossed and turned in the air, almost tipping over.
Yang Jiuli forcefully stabilized the flying boat.
But then he saw figures flickering in front of him, and two middle-aged men dressed in black robes appeared.
Two men, one on the left and one on the right, blocked Yang Jiuli's path.
Moreover, one of the men holding a golden knife had a blue-eyed fire ferret on his shoulder.
The fireball just now was spat out by this blue-eyed fire ferret.
"Eighth level of Qi Refining!" On the flying boat, Yang Jiuli's eyes flickered as he looked at the man holding the golden knife.
Then, he looked at another man in black next to him.
A black and gold moon wheel-shaped magical artifact floated beside another man in black.
Black flames flickered on the artifact, making it clearly a top-grade first-tier artifact.
The man in black was also at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
The one wielding the golden knife is named Zheng Jin, Zheng Cha's younger brother.
The black flame moon wheel floating in front of him is named Xu Can, Xu Jiang's elder brother.
At this moment, Zheng Jin and Xu Can also sized up Yang Jiuli.
"Tsk tsk, it's actually a top-grade flying boat. It seems this sheep is even fatter than I imagined!" Zheng Jin grinned menacingly.
"A mere Qi Refining Level 5 cultivator can actually buy top-grade magic artifacts?" Xu Can frowned and looked at Zheng Jin, saying, "Second Brother, could this person be a direct descendant of a Foundation Establishment family? Otherwise, how could he be so wealthy?" He was somewhat wary.
As cultivators who had undergone tribulation, they were quite sensible and only robbed small families or rogue cultivators.
Those from Foundation Establishment families would absolutely not dare to provoke.
Besides, this place is more than 100 li away from Dazeshan Market, and belongs to the territory outside the market.
Robbing people here is considered giving face to the Dazeshan Market.
The iron guards patrolling those markets and towns only cover an area of eighty li.
If the child were to appear a hundred miles away, the Iron Guards of Dazeshan Market would not interfere too much.
After all, the market has limited manpower, and the cultivation world is full of chaos, which they cannot manage.
Only when the sons of powerful families are kidnapped do they attract attention.
Zheng Jin shook his head and said, "My spirit beast, the Azure-Eyed Sable, can not only search for treasures and track them... its eyes can also see a person's age. This person is over thirty-five years old... yet he is only at the fifth level of Qi Refining. If he is truly a descendant of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even if he only has a low-grade spiritual root and is cultivating on a second-tier spiritual vein, his cultivation level would be much higher than this... If he is truly a waste, why would he be given so many resources? After all, even a Foundation Establishment ancestor wouldn't just casually bestow top-grade magic weapons upon his descendants."
Xu Can nodded repeatedly.
If there are many descendants of Foundation Establishment cultivators, those with low talent will mostly be abandoned.
If they hadn't given up, they could have used pills to help a 35-year-old junior reach the seventh level of Qi Refining.
Yang Jiuli at the moment clearly does not appear to be a descendant of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
"Then how come he's so rich?" Xu Can asked.
"It seems this person, by some twist of fate, obtained the cave dwelling of an ancient great cultivator and acquired some treasures!" Zheng Jin said.
"I suppose that's how it is!" Xu Can nodded, and the apprehension in his eyes when he looked at Yang Jiuli finally began to fade away.
"Gentlemen, what is the meaning of your sudden attack on me?" At this moment, Yang Jiuli asked with clear eyes from the airship.
His appearance made Zheng Jin burst into laughter.
"Haha, truly a naive rogue cultivator who's never seen the world!" Zheng Jin flicked the back of his sword and said, "Listen up, your grandfather is a Tribulation Cultivator! Quickly hand over the treasure in your hand, or this Great Swamp Mountain Range will be your burial ground today!"
"Jie... Jie Xiu..." Yang Jiuli looked utterly shocked.
This makes him seem even more like a naive, inexperienced cultivator who has never seen the world!
"Why say so much? Just kill him! It wouldn't be good if someone passed by later!" Xu Can said.
After dispelling his concerns, Xu Can became sinister and ruthless.
"Hmm!" Zheng Jin's gaze also turned cold.
Immediately, the two exchanged a glance and flew directly towards Yang Jiuli.
At the same time, Zheng Jin, wielding a golden knife, slashed fiercely.
Golden light burst forth from the blade, instantly slashing in front of Yang Jiuli's flying boat.
His golden knife was also a top-grade magical artifact.
This Golden Light Slash is a top-grade first-rank martial art that Zheng Jin has cultivated for many years.
Xu Can also made a hand gesture, and the black flame wheel in front of him flashed, carrying raging black flames, and slashed towards Yang Jiuli's flying boat.
However, just as they were going all out, a sudden change occurred.
The wooden boat in front of them flashed and disappeared into thin air.
Zheng Jin's golden light slash missed its target entirely.
Xu Can's black flame moon wheel also streaked across the void, striking nothing in its path.
But Yang Jiuli, who was ahead, had disappeared at some point.
The next instant, a streak of light flashed past them.
But Yang Jiuli flew over at lightning speed.
That's incredibly fast.
Like lightning.
It turned out that after Yang Jiuli put the flying boat into his storage bag, he affixed a first-grade high-quality 'Swiftness Talisman' to his body.
"This is..." Upon seeing this, Zheng Jin and Xu Can's pupils both contracted.
However, before they could react, Yang Jiuli's body flashed and transformed into two figures.
Both figures drew a cold iron sword.
With a swift stroke of the longsword, a cold light flashed, and sword energy crisscrossed, transforming into a sword arc that slashed towards Zheng Jin and Xu Can's necks.
Zheng Jin and Xu Can moved their hands, and a talisman appeared in each of their palms in an attempt to defend themselves.
In addition, they patted their robes with their other hand, activating the array patterns within them.
The robe was radiant with light patterns, which were about to form a protective shield.
Unfortunately, the sword arc was too fast.
Before the robe could fully materialize the light shield, a flash of sword light severed their heads in an instant.
"Tsk!" The emerald-eyed sable was terrified and immediately tried to retreat.
However, a cold light flashed in the air, and a small snake appeared. It opened its mouth and spewed out a web of cold air that bound the blue-eyed sable.
Instantly, the emerald-eyed sable's body stiffened and was frozen in mid-air. Then, the little snake opened its mouth and sucked, and the cold net pulled the sable to its front.
Immediately, the little snake, with a silly grin on its face, flew to Yang Jiuli's side in the air.
At this moment, Yang Jiuli grabbed Zheng Jin and Xu Can, and a storage bag flew over from their bodies.
A spirit beast pouch flew over from Zheng Jin's body.
At the same time, he also captured the two uncontrolled magical artifacts in his palm and put them into his storage bag.
