Fairy bestows immortality

Nearby, vendors were hawking their wares.

"Topographic map?"

Su Yun turned around and looked at the vendor.

The stalls were filled with a dense array of blueprint-like products.

He asked, "How much is one serving?"

Upon hearing this, the vendor immediately smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, ten spirit stones a share, a cheap and honest price, no deception of the young or old."

"Give me one."

Su Yun gave the other party ten spirit stones.

"okay!"

After accepting the spirit stones, the merchant immediately handed Su Yun a topographical map with a smile.

After taking it, he examined it and found that it was indeed a fairly detailed topographic map.

The locations and distances of roads where mountain ranges meet are all marked.

"good."

Su Yun nodded in satisfaction. Ten spirit stones was indeed not expensive for this kind of thing, and it allowed him to get a clear understanding of the situation.

As the vendor saw Su Yun turn to leave, he immediately whispered, "Fellow Daoist, I have some good treasures here. Would you like to take a look?"

Su Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "What wonderful treasure?"

"Shh!"

The vendor fell silent, then said mysteriously, "This thing is very precious. If it weren't for the fact that we have a connection, young man, I definitely wouldn't have shown it to you."

Upon seeing this, Su Yun gave the other party a strange look.

This merchant, at the third level of the Qi Sea realm, looked incredibly shrewd.

He stroked his chin and said, "Tell me what it is, and show it to me."

The vendor lowered his voice and said, "I accidentally obtained a supreme Buddhist treasure near the ancient gorge. It's said to be a dzi bead used by an ancient Buddha. Do you want it?"

As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized, earth-yellow bead and placed it in his hand.

Su Yun looked down and immediately scanned the area with his divine sense.

A moment of silence ensued.

"get out."

A mere spirit-gathering bead used to collect nearby spiritual energy dares to impersonate a dzi bead used by an ancient Buddha; it's quite audacious.

If Su Yun weren't a tyrannical person, he would have slapped him across the face!

With that, he turned and left.

The vendor could only stand there awkwardly scratching his head. This young cultivator's spiritual perception was quite extraordinary.

After walking along the street for a while, Su Yun arrived at an inn called Baimu and booked a room.

After entering the room and settling in, Su Yun sat cross-legged in the room.

I took out the topographic map that I had just purchased.

The annotations above are indeed very detailed.

"Tianyuan Rift, Ancient Gorge, Tianyuan Mountain Range..."

Su Yun looked at them one by one and found several marked locations where Daoist relics might emerge.

"I don't know if it's true or not."

He shook his head. That cunning merchant seemed unreliable and couldn't be trusted entirely.

Currently, the complete remains of Taoist traditions have not yet been revealed to the world.

Su Yun wasn't in a hurry; once settled, he could wait quietly.

He settled down in the Whitewood Inn and continued his cultivation.

The fat monk and Xiangwu had already learned of his arrival.

Moreover, Su Yun observed that Ding Qian'er was not far from here.

This female cultivator from the Desire Sect had gone to Mingyuan Ancient City long ago, and they hadn't met for so long. They wondered where she had risen to prominence.

The other party is quite cunning, but since she cultivates the Spirit Nourishing Technique, she will need his help sooner or later.

……

Inside the inn, Su Yun cultivated for about two days, merging the sixth True Meridian Spring with his Qi Sea, thus reaching the peak of the fifth level of the Qi Sea realm.

After escaping the pursuit of the white-haired old man, Su Yun began to pick up the long-dormant Breaking Illusion Technique and continue cultivating it.

"This technique is still very important. Although it is not very useful in normal times, if one masters it, it may even save one from a fatal crisis."

The Art of Deception can expose falsehoods; all concealment and illusions are exposed, revealing their true nature at a glance.

If he had practiced diligently before, even if the white-ash old man had a concealment bead, he would not have been able to hide within a hundred meters of him and would have been easily detected.

……

"Is this the entrance to a remnant of a Daoist lineage?"

At this moment, Su Yun was in the ancient gorge.
