Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

Although this pill recipe and refining technique are useless to Chen Yunhao himself, they can bring him some wealth.

Especially the method recorded on this jade slip, it can be copied indefinitely.

Whether you take it to the Medicine King Pavilion to exchange for elixirs, or sell it at an auction, you will gain a lot.

Of course, the premise is that the recipe cannot be everywhere. If it is everywhere, the recipe will be worthless.

Chen Yunhao picked up the second jade slip and placed it on his forehead.

Then I saw that his face looked strange. The jade slip recorded a direction map.

This is what monks commonly call a treasure map, but the location is far away, overseas.

Chen Yunhao had a strange look on his face, mainly because he was a little confused.

Because the second jade slip in his hand looked very new, it was obviously newly copied.

Although Chen Yunhao had never come across a treasure map, he had heard many versions of the story in the mixed market of West City.

Someone deliberately spread the information about the treasure map, and many casual cultivators secretly obtained the so-called treasure map.

When everyone went to look for treasure without any prior arrangement, they found out that it was a trap and basically no one who went there would come back.

This kind of thing is common in the world of immortal cultivation and is no longer a rare thing. So Chen Yunhao has heard it so many times that he naturally thinks that this is probably another trap.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, he will put it away first. This thing is the same as the dark thorn. He will not copy it, let alone sell it.

He casually put the jade slip away and picked up the third jade slip and placed it on his forehead.

Judging from its shape and luster, this jade slip is quite old.

This records a method of raising insects and how to control them.

Chen Yunhao had also heard that some cultivators on the mainland focused on refining insects.

This is a special group of practitioners who mainly practice refining insects. They live in harmony with the insects' nature and life, rely on insects to increase their cultivation, and also rely on insects to fight.

Chen Yunhao had never seen this special type of cultivator before, had no intuitive impression of him, and could not imagine what kind of existence he was.

The third jade slip records the breeding method of a spiritual insect called the Spirit-eating Cicada, as well as the techniques for practicing it.

Not to mention the breeding methods and training techniques, this was the first time he had heard the name of this spiritual insect.

There's no way, and we can't say that he is ignorant. There are just too many strange and bizarre methods of cultivation in this world!

If he really had the chance to encounter a soul-eating cicada in the future, he wouldn't mind getting a few and raising them.

After all, these spiritual insects of heaven and earth are of great help to practitioners, but ordinary practitioners simply cannot afford to raise them.

This is all the spoils of this battle. It is said that killing and arson are the fastest ways to make a fortune!

Not to mention the hundreds of spirit stones, just look at these jade slips and the two secret books. These are truly things that cannot be bought with money.

These are all intangible assets, so Chen Yunhao was very satisfied, and the smile on his lips never stopped.

As expected, risks come with opportunities. However, he couldn't take the initiative to kill people and steal treasures. If he was forced to fight back, he could do it with a clear conscience.

He reorganized his belongings and put some important items, especially the antique mirror, into a separate storage bag, hung it around his neck, and kept it close to his body.

Unimportant things were placed in the storage bags around his waist, with one storage bag hanging on each side.

The flying sword, talismans and other magical tools used for fighting were all placed in the storage bag on the right so that he could use them at any time.

Chen Yunhao practiced breathing exercises for a day and restored his physical condition to its best.

In the next few days, he will study the two new secret techniques he has acquired.

The art of concealment is easy to learn. It has no restrictions on spiritual root attributes and any cultivator can practice it.

This secret method is mainly to gather the cultivator's breath into the body, without leaking out at all.

Strictly speaking, this is a technique for reversing the circulation of true Qi in the body.

It seems simple, but in fact the monk who invented this spell is absolutely a man of extraordinary talent.

Because this secret method is applicable to any cultivator and matches any technique, it is truly heaven-defying.

The formula is very short and can be learned in three to five days, but if you want to practice it to perfection, it will not be achieved overnight.

When this concealment technique is practiced to a high level, the caster can completely blend in with the surrounding environment. Unless seen with the naked eye, it can definitely hide from any spiritual sense.

In Chen Yunhao's view, this is the secret method to save life and must be practiced well.

There is also the sword-controlling technique of An Ci, which he believes is the best way to launch a sneak attack and the key to victory, so he must practice it well.

So Chen Yunhao put down everything he was doing and, of course, injected his true energy into the ancient mirror without fail.

This period of secluded training lasted for half a year. It can be said that his cultivation level did not improve at all, but he did master the two secret techniques.

When the Dark Thorn was used at full strength, its flying speed was sometimes so fast that he couldn't even catch it with his naked eyes.

The key feature of the Dark Thorn is that its spiritual power fluctuations are very small, and it is very easy to be ignored by the opponent when fighting with others.

Therefore, the Dark Thorn is one of the most valued magic weapons in Chen Yunhao's hand, and the Fire Crow Sword has to take a back seat.

If he could find good materials and a good weapon refiner in the future, he would be willing to spend a lot of money to upgrade the Dark Thorn into a magic weapon.

This is something for later, let’s not mention it for now.

Although he had been in seclusion for half a year and his cultivation level was still at the eighth level of Qi Refining, there was no doubt that Chen Yunhao's overall strength had improved a lot.

Two good friends he made in the West City Market in the past six months sent him several sound transmission notes, inviting him to a gathering.

After leaving the courtyard, Chen Yunhao first took a walk around the West City Market.

In the last battle, the tortoise shell shield in his hand shattered.

Although he still had a spare tortoise shell shield in his hand, Chen Yunhao realized that the level of this tortoise shell shield was still too low and its defensive ability was too poor.

So he wanted to find a defensive magic weapon of better quality than the tortoise shell shield in the West City Market.

But it was all in vain. If you want a better mid-grade defensive magic weapon, the price would be over a thousand. No one is selling it at this stall, mainly because there is no buyer's market.

After walking around the West City Market, Chen Yunhao didn't buy anything, nor did he sell any magic weapons.

He still had the elixir he had bought before, and the Tang brothers and sisters who sold the elixir had long since disappeared. Chen Yunhao didn't like the elixirs sold at other stalls.

As his cultivation level improved and his net worth skyrocketed, the street goods in the West City Market could no longer satisfy him, and he had no choice but to move to another location.

Before going to the shops along the street, Chen Yunhao came to Lai Fu Teahouse again.

It was still the familiar seat by the window on the second floor. Ma Han and Wang Qian had been waiting for him for a long time.

Chen Yunhao hasn't shown up for half a year, but Ma and Wang didn't ask any more questions. Everyone has their own secrets, so don't try to find out, otherwise you won't even be able to be friends.
