Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 61 Goodbye Black Wind (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

A swampy area along the Longze River.

The airship landed under a swamp tree.

Zhao Chunsheng walked out from the fog outside.

"Master Shen, everything is ready."

Just now, he set up a mid-grade illusion array near the swamp tree.

It can prevent sudden attacks from monsters and cultivators.

This is also a basic skill for demon hunters.

Shen Xuan and the others sat cross-legged in the shade of a tree.

A faint, fishy smell permeated the swamp mist.

The sky gradually darkened.

A small campfire flickered and burned softly.

It felt especially warm in the wilderness.

Shen Xuan opened the beast bag and threw all thirty-odd storage bags and twenty-odd magical artifacts on the ground.

"Da Hu, Er Hu, you two come and help organize the contents of these storage bags!"

The storage bag and the magical artifact both contained the divine aura of their original owners, which Shen Xuan ruthlessly erased.

Zhao Chunsheng and his family spent a long time organizing these things.

Magical artifacts, spirit stones, elixirs, talismans, and refining materials were all available, piled up like small mountains in front of everyone.

Thirty-two storage bags.

Shen Xuan first chose the best storage bag, which had a volume of six cubic meters, twice the size of his current one.

"Each of you choose a storage bag first!"

Zhao Chunsheng, without hesitation, was the first to choose someone similar to Shen Xuan.

Jiang Xueqi, Zhao Dahu, and Zhao Erhu each chose a two-cubic-meter unit.

Shen Xuan nodded.

Jiang Xueqi and the others were self-aware.

There are twenty-four ritual implements.

Some mid-grade magic weapons were damaged by Shen Xuan in the battle, leaving only these intact ones.

"Let's pick out a magical artifact too!"

Jiang Xueqi and the others did not stand on ceremony and each chose a mid-grade magic weapon that matched their own attributes.

Zhao Chunsheng, on the other hand, immediately took a liking to Guo Boling's yellow spirit shield and quickly snatched it.

Shen Xuan laughed and scolded, "Fellow Daoist Zhao, you have a good eye indeed! You've taken the best magic weapon!"

The yellow spirit shield was of excellent quality, and it managed to block Shen Xuan's heavy water seal without breaking it.

Guo Boling was crushed to death by the weight of the heavy watermark.

"Hehe. This is my livelihood skill. I hope Master Shen will forgive my poor performance!"

There are approximately ten thousand spirit stones.

Shen Xuan thought for a moment and then made a payment.

"We'll split the spirit stones 30/70, you get 30% and I get 70%, no objections, right?"

"No comment!"

Zhao Chunsheng quickly opened his storage bag and put the spirit stones piled in front of him into it.

As for the elixirs, talismans, and refining materials, Shen Xuan thought about it.

"Pick whatever you like from here!"

Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu happily picked some out.

Lian Jiang Xueqi also picked out some spiritual items for cultivation with great interest.

Shen Xuan then selected some high-quality elixirs and talismans from the remaining items, and repackaged the rest into his storage bag.

Shen Xuan carefully put away the nine high-grade magic artifacts.

Looking at the remaining mid-grade magic artifacts, he thought for a moment.

"When we arrive in the Immortal City, Fellow Daoist Zhao, please find a way to sell these eleven mid-grade magic artifacts."

"Be careful not to attract attention. Same as always, 15% commission."

Zhao Chunsheng replied with a smile, "No problem. Don't worry, I'm always reliable in my work."

It's just a mid-grade magic weapon, and given Zhao Chunsheng's status as a demon hunter at the eighth level of Qi Refining, it's not very dangerous.

Shen Xuan plans to sell the high-grade magic artifacts himself or exchange them for the spiritual items he needs for cultivation.

"Oh, right, and this airship too."

"Even if it's a thousand spirit stones, we'll split it fifty-fifty. You give me five hundred spirit stones!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chunsheng was overjoyed.

"It should."

Zhao Chunsheng got a good deal by buying a flying boat for only five hundred spirit stones.

"Alright. The spoils have been divided. Everyone get some rest, and we'll continue our journey tomorrow."

Shen Xuan asked Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu to help him tidy up again.

late at night.

Ding Yuyao nestled in Shen Xuan's warm embrace.

"Husband, you are so kind!"

"I thought..." "Thought what?"

Ding Yuyao smiled mischievously.

"Don't tell you!"

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

He could guess what Ding Yuyao was thinking.

Husbands and wives are birds of the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately.

Besides, she was just an ordinary woman.

"The Ding family treated me well. What a pity!"

"Yes, I don't know how many people in the clan will survive."

"Some people will always survive."

"My parents..."

"Don't worry. The war in the cultivation world won't affect the mortal world. At most, you'll be dismissed from your post, but your life will be spared."

"hope so."

Ding Yuyao sighed softly.

"Once we've established ourselves in Yunyuan Immortal City, I'll ask someone to inquire about it."

"Thank you, husband."

"How can you thank me? Just a verbal thank you isn't sincere!"

"Once things have settled down, I will be at your disposal, my husband!"

"Go to sleep. No matter what, tomorrow is another day."

The next morning.

Zhao Chunsheng put away the array flags, started the flying boat, and carried everyone eastward along the Longze River.

Before fleeing Qinglong Bay Market, Shen Xuan did his homework and made plans for his future development.

For water-based cultivators of the Song Kingdom, the best place to establish their foundation is Yunyuan Immortal City.

This celestial city is located in Changyi County, Weiwu Prefecture, and is directly under the jurisdiction of Bishui Sect. It is adjacent to the islands of the East China Sea.

The most important ingredient for the Foundation Establishment Pill, the inner core, can be obtained from second-tier demonic beasts in the East Sea.

It is considered a holy land for water-based cultivators, and water-attribute spiritual items are extremely cheap.

Directly under the jurisdiction of the sect, with good public security, various forces have settled here, and the population is large, with 100,000 cultivators residing here, making it a prosperous and thriving place.

The Immortal City is overseen by a Core Formation True Person from the Azure Water Sect, and is built on a third-tier spiritual vein. Many water-based cultivators go there to establish their foundations.

Although Zhao Chunsheng was a fire magic cultivator.

But he was determined to cling to Shen Xuan's coattails.

Yesterday alone, he received four or five thousand spirit stones as a benefit.

This doesn't even include the gains for the wife and two sons.

"Becoming acquainted with Master Shen is the greatest opportunity of my life!"

Zhao Chunsheng piloted the flying boat, flying at a moderate speed along the river.

A month later.

In Shen Xuan's line of sight, he could see the river flowing into the sea, where the two rivers were clearly distinct and the scenery was magnificent.

According to the geographical markers on the jade slip, they are now only a little over a thousand miles away from Yunyuan Immortal City.

The flying boat travels in just two or three hours.

Zhao Chunsheng slowed down.

Piloting a flying boat consumes a significant amount of spiritual energy and mental power.

The closer you get to the Immortal City, the more you need to get your body into the best condition to prevent any accidents.

By this time, they were already encountering some cultivators on the road.

Scattered here and there, in small groups of three or five, most of them were in the middle or late stages of Qi Refining, with wary expressions and sharp eyes.

Shen Xuan could sense that most of the cultivators exuded a murderous aura, clearly indicating that they had blood on their hands and had fought and killed.

"As expected, the cultivation level of the cultivators in Yunyuan Immortal City is a significant level higher than that in Qinglong Bay Market."

Shen Xuan thought to himself.

At this moment, Shen Xuan sensed that someone had set up a concealment formation a hundred feet ahead.

There were fluctuations of magical combat within.

One of the auras felt somewhat familiar.

"There are cultivators fighting over there, and there are some old acquaintances of ours among them. I'll go take a look!"

"An old acquaintance? Who is it?"

"It should be Black Wind, the leader of the Tribulation Cultivators! You wait here!"

Zhao Chunsheng quickly stopped the flying boat.

Shen Xuan transformed into a streak of green and sped away.

Sure enough, under the cover of a simple array, several cultivators were fighting fiercely.

If Shen Xuan hadn't used his [Insight Technique], it would have been difficult to detect.

On one side were three male cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining, the one in the middle wearing a black mist mask, exuding a chilling killing intent.

The other side also consisted of three cultivators, seemingly a couple with a young boy.
