I can gather experience beads

"Is this the sword that I infused with my full power? Did you defeat him in one blow?"

Cao Rui was holding the Youquan Sword and was quite surprised to see the giant octopus monster kneeling down.

Cao Rui anticipated that this little demon was no match for him.

But I didn't expect that this guy would be scared with just one move.

Perhaps it was because he saw that Cao Rui was still holding the Youquan sword in his hand.

The giant octopus monster suddenly opened its mouth a crack.

A black bag was vomited out.

The giant octopus monster used one of its uncut tentacle to hold the bag and slowly brought it to Cao Rui.

"This is......"

Cao Rui's heart moved.

With a light flick of the Youquan Sword, the black bag fell into Cao Rui's hands.

As soon as he touched the black bag, its texture gave Cao Rui a strange feeling.

Subconsciously using magic power to explore.

The next moment, a one-cubic-sized space appeared in Cao Rui's consciousness.

"Sure enough, this is a cultivator's storage bag..."

“I didn’t expect it to be in the mouth of this monster.”

“We came to the right cave this time.”

Cao Rui looked surprised.

Cao Rui took a look at the giant octopus monster in front of him, and its ugly appearance seemed much more pleasing to the eye.

Cao Rui did not kill it for the time being.

But we must always be vigilant.

Cao Rui left the cave and came to the pile of bones at the exit. Only then did he use his consciousness to carefully explore the contents of the storage bag.

There is very little in the storage bag.

I guess the owner of the storage bag had reached the end of his rope before he died.

Cao Rui tried to take out the things in the storage bag.

After slightly consuming some magic power, a booklet appeared in Cao Rui's hand.

"Master Guangyuan's Notes."

This thing that looked like a diary was the first thing Cao Rui noticed in the storage bag.

Cao Rui opened the 'Notes of Master Guangyuan'.

The first sentence was: Master Guangyuan came from our ordinary martial arts sect. It is shameful for a mere Qi-refining casual cultivator to call himself a master...

These humble words made Cao Rui smile faintly, and he couldn't help but continue watching.

Soon, Cao Rui realized the importance of this notebook to him.

"The Notes of Immortal Guangyuan" records the deeds of Guangyuan, a casual cultivator, who stepped from the world of martial arts into the world of immortal cultivation.

Record it from a personal perspective in the form of a diary.

Of course, Guangyuan doesn't write Japanese dramas every day.

Instead, record down things that you think are interesting and bizarre.

Basically, Guangyuan would record it when he encountered new knowledge in the world of immortal cultivation.

For example, the first page records the first acquaintance with the efficacy of the Spirit Stone:

[Guangyuan Zhenren's Notes: First Entry into the Immortal Path]

Today is the day when I, Guangyuan, step into this vast world of cultivating immortals. I feel both nervous and full of anticipation.

All the worldly things of the past have disappeared like clouds and smoke, leaving only a heart that is devoted to the Tao, burning and resolute.

When I stepped into the Xiuxian Market, I realized that everything in this world of Xiuxian can be used by me.

And spiritual stones are the foundation of spiritual practice, containing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. For those of us who have just embarked on the path of immortality, they are like nectar to a dead tree.

"Xiuxianfang City?"

"Spiritual stone?"

Cao Rui carefully read the contents of the notes at the back.

Finally found the location of Xiuxian Market.

On the west side of Changyuan Mountain in Xiao State, if you jump down the cliff, you will reach the "Changyuan Xiuxian Market".

This 'Changyuan Xiuxian Market' is also the only market for immortal practitioners in Xiao State.

Built on a micro spiritual vein.

Initially, it was a place for several independent practitioners to gather and practice.

After becoming famous, it gradually attracted many independent cultivators and became the Changyuan Immortal Cultivation Market.

This Xiuxian market is very free and is controlled by three people.

You only need to pay one spirit stone every year to become an official member of the market.

Full members are eligible to vote for the principal and are also allowed to run for the principal by the rules.

The most important function of the market town is to provide a safe trading environment for cultivators.

Besides, Changyuan Xiuxian Market is built on the micro-spiritual vein after all.

Practicing in the market town is three times faster than in the outside world.

Half an hour.

Cao Rui finished reading the entire notebook.

Because Guangyuan was already over sixty years old when he entered the world of immortal cultivation.

He switched to practicing the immortal cultivation method as a master of innate skills, but his own talent for cultivating immortals was weak.

Therefore, Guangyuan’s time in the world of immortal cultivation was actually not very long.

Even so, it was enough to benefit Cao Rui, who knew nothing about it.

Cao Rui knew the levels of spirit stones.

Inferior Spirit Stone: The most common spirit stone, with dull color and thin spiritual energy, suitable for low-level cultivators to use for basic training and to supplement daily consumption.

Medium-grade spirit stone: Compared with low-grade spirit stones, medium-grade spirit stones are brighter in color and have a higher concentration of spiritual energy, which can more effectively promote the cultivation of cultivators and accelerate the accumulation of spiritual power.

Top-grade spiritual stone: It is of superior quality, with pure and abundant spiritual energy. It is the preferred material for high-level cultivators to practice, refine magic weapons or set up formations, and is very valuable.

It is said that there are top-grade spirit stones and spirit crystals above them.

But Guangyuan has never seen it with his own eyes.

Spiritual veins also have levels.

Micro Spiritual Vein: This is the lowest level of spiritual vein, with thin spiritual energy, which can only be used by a very small number of basic practitioners to barely maintain their daily practice needs.

Shallow Spiritual Vein: The spiritual energy is slightly denser than that of the Weak Spiritual Vein, but still insufficient to support high-level cultivation. It is suitable for low-level cultivators as a place for initial cultivation.

Clear Spiritual Veins: The spiritual energy is clear and stable, suitable for cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage and below. It can accelerate the cultivation process and improve the efficiency of cultivation.

Orchid Spiritual Vein: Famous for its orchid color, the spiritual energy contains a faint fragrance, which helps to calm the mind and is suitable for monks who cultivate their mind and inner alchemy.

Mysterious Crystal Spirit Veins: The spiritual energy is mixed with tiny spiritual crystals, which can be directly absorbed and refined. It is of great benefit to Jindan stage cultivators and is an important resource for advanced cultivation.

Below the Changyuan Xiuxian Market is a micro spiritual vein.

It can be seen from Guangyuan's notes that the spiritual veins in Xiao State and even the entire Yunzhou are extremely rare.

If you can find a spiritual vein, then be happy, no matter what level it is.

Cao Rui also knew the most important thing, the level of cultivation.

Although there are twelve levels in the Qi Refining Stage, it is only the lowest level of cultivators.

The levels of cultivators can be specifically divided into Qi Refining Stage, Foundation Building Stage, Golden Elixir Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, and Spirit Transformation Stage.

Qi Refining Stage: The starting point of the road to immortality, during which cultivators absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, refine it into their bodies, gradually cleansing their marrow and strengthening their bones, thereby enhancing their physique and magical powers.

At this stage, the cultivator is not yet able to fly and needs to rely on magical instruments or spiritual beasts for transportation.

Foundation-building stage: After completing Qi refining, the cultivator needs to go through the calamity of foundation-building to condense the spiritual energy in the body into a foundation and consolidate his cultivation.

After successfully building the foundation, the cultivator will truly have stepped into the door of cultivating immortals. He can fly in the air, his lifespan and strength are improved, and he can initially cast spells and perform magical powers.

Golden Elixir Stage: After building the foundation, the cultivator needs to further compress the spiritual power and condense it into a golden elixir.

Jindan stage cultivators not only greatly increase their strength, but can also fly and travel around the world.

The quality of the golden elixir will directly affect the future achievements of the cultivator.
