Mythical Cultivation

He had a very deep impression of Wu Ming. After all, his store was not doing well and sometimes there might not be a single customer coming in the whole day.

So, when Wu Ming walked into the store, he recognized the person who had been there more than ten days ago at a glance.

"I came to your store today to sell some unused magical instruments, and also to ask for some information from you, fellow Taoist." Wu Ming said straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, the shop owner quickly responded, "Send out a magical weapon? Of course, that's no problem. I wonder what the quality of the magical weapon you have is?"

As he spoke, he gestured to Wu Ming to take out the magic weapon for him to examine.

Wu Ming didn't waste any words and immediately took out the magic weapons that he didn't need from his storage bag.

Upon seeing this, the shop owner immediately took the instruments and examined them carefully.

After a long while, he raised his head and said to Wu Ming, "Well, the quality of these magic tools is quite good. Let me give you a price, and see if you are satisfied."

After that, he quoted a price.

Wu Ming thought about it for a moment and felt that the price was reasonable, so he did not bargain with the other party and nodded in agreement.

Thus, the transaction was successfully completed and both parties were satisfied with the result.

After the transaction was completed, the shop owner looked at Wu Ming with a smile and asked, "Okay, now the issue of the magic weapon has been resolved. So, fellow Daoist, what information do you want to know? As long as I know something, I will tell you everything I know."

The shopkeeper has been in a particularly good mood recently because he successfully purchased several high-quality magical instruments for the store.

This meant that the store would make a lot of money from spirit stones! As a result, he naturally became more attentive to Wu Ming, a big customer, and wanted to establish a good relationship with him.

At this moment, Wu Ming suddenly asked, "Boss, I've heard recently that there have been incidents of young men being sucked of their blood nearby. Have you heard anything about this?"

Hearing this question, the shopkeeper was obviously stunned for a moment, and his face turned pale in an instant.

However, he quickly came to his senses and waved his hands, saying, "Ah, about this, I'm really sorry, I'm ignorant and have never heard of this."

Wu Ming stared closely at the shopkeeper's expression, thinking secretly in his heart.

He felt that the shopkeeper's reaction was a little unusual, as if he was hiding something.

So, he bluntly pressed the issue again, "Boss, are you truly clueless about this? Aren't you in league with the cultivators from the Blood Demon Sect?"

"Fellow Daoist, please don't talk nonsense!"

The shopkeeper's face instantly turned into one of extreme fear. He widened his eyes and retorted with a slightly trembling voice:

"I am a true cultivator of the righteous path. How could I possibly be colluding with the demonic sect, the Blood Demon Sect?"

Seeing this, Wu Ming frowned slightly, obviously doubting the shopkeeper's statement.

He looked directly into the shopkeeper's eyes and pressed the issue, "Shopkeeper, since you said you weren't an accomplice of the Blood Demon Sect monks, then why did you conceal their whereabouts?"

The shopkeeper's heart tightened, and he secretly complained, thinking that this young man was really difficult to deal with.

He calmed himself down and explained, "Fellow Daoist, you don't know that the cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect are not to be trifled with. They are ruthless and cruel. Once you are targeted by them, the consequences will be disastrous!"

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Wu Ming's doubts did not diminish, but became even more intense.

He pressed on, "Boss, I still don't quite understand. Since you know how terrifying the Blood Demon Sect is, why are you still trying to hide their whereabouts? Aren't you afraid of being implicated by them?"

Seeing Wu Ming being so persistent, the shopkeeper sighed inwardly, knowing that if he didn't make things clear today, he would probably have a hard time getting out of this situation.

He took a deep breath and said to Wu Ming in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist, you are new here and may not understand the interests involved.

The Blood Demon Sect is a huge force with many informants. If I reveal their whereabouts, not only will my life be in danger, but my family and friends will also suffer the same fate!"

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Wu Ming couldn't help but feel moved.

He began to realize that the water was probably deeper than he had imagined.

However, he was not frightened by the shopkeeper's words. Instead, he became more determined to track down the whereabouts of the Blood Demon Sect monk.

"Boss, you are too timid!" Wu Ming said with a look of disapproval.

"With so many righteous sects around, and the Qingyun Sect in charge, the Xuesha Sect is basically just a rat hiding underground in Qingjiang County. How could they have the courage to show up? What are you afraid of?"

After hearing what Wu Ming said, the shopkeeper felt a little aggrieved, but he still carefully observed the outside of the door, then lowered his voice and explained to Wu Ming:

"Fellow Daoist, you may not understand the situation very well. The Blood Demon Sect is indeed as insignificant as a foot fungus to a force like the Qingyun Sect.

But for ordinary cultivators like us, they are terrifying beings that can destroy our families! We don’t have the strength of the Qingyun Sect, so how could we dare to provoke them? "

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Wu Ming realized that he might have taken things for granted.

Although he is a disciple of the top sect Qingyun Sect, he doesn't know much about the situation of other independent cultivators and small sects.

In his opinion, the cultivators of the Blood Evil Sect were nothing more than a group of rats crossing the street that everyone wanted to kill. As long as they dared to show up, they would definitely be easily eliminated by their fellow disciples of the Qingyun Sect and become the heroes of their fellow disciples.

However, he overlooked an important fact: for ordinary cultivators without strong backgrounds and abilities, the Blood Demon Sect was an existence that absolutely could not be provoked. No one wanted to bring catastrophic disaster upon themselves and their families due to a momentary impulse.

It was not until he heard the shopkeeper's explanation that Wu Ming suddenly realized that he had always viewed the Blood Evil Sect only from his own perspective.

However, they completely failed to take into account that in the entire cultivation world, most cultivators and forces were actually wary of the Blood Evil Sect and did not dare to provoke them easily.

"Boss, I'm really inconsiderate!"

Wu Ming looked ashamed and looked at the shopkeeper with guilt, and said sincerely.

Then, he quickly took out a jade token from his storage bag and held it in front of the shopkeeper, motioning him to check it.

"But, boss, you don't need to worry."

Wu Ming took a breath and continued.

"I am a disciple of the Qingyun Sect. I have come here specifically to eliminate this cultivator from the Blood Evil Sect. However, fellow Daoist, please do not reveal my whereabouts, lest you alarm the cultivator from the Blood Evil Sect."
