The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

A roar drew all the onlookers' attention.

A man dressed in a yellow robe, who bore a striking resemblance to the girl, strode forward.

"elder brother!"

As soon as the girl saw the man, she cried out in grievance.

"Don't be afraid, little sister, your brother is here."

The man first comforted the girl, then glared angrily at the burly man in black robes.

Say what you just said again!

The man's expression was fierce, and his Qi Refining eleventh level cultivation level erupted directly.

"Ahem! Fellow Daoist, you've misunderstood. I was mistaken. This magic sword wasn't bought here. Farewell!"

The burly man in black broke out in a cold sweat, quickly bowed and apologized, then turned and left.

"You know what's going on!"

The man snorted coldly. He couldn't make a move in the market, so he could only let the man leave. Otherwise, he would have definitely taught him a lesson.

The man then turned around and comforted his sister, while the onlookers, seeing that there was no more excitement to be had, dispersed.

After a short while, only Lu Yao remained in the same spot.

"Haotian Pearl! Investigate!"

Name: Han Yunzhi

Spiritual roots: Water, Earth

Cultivation level: Qi Refining Level 8

Technique: Water Element Technique

……

Name: Han Yunshan

Spiritual roots: Metal, Water, Earth

Cultivation level: Qi Refining Level 11

Exercise: Jinshan Gong

……

These two are the Han siblings, who came to participate in the Ascension Ceremony.

"Is there something you need, fellow Daoist?"

Han Yun looked wary when she saw that Lu Yao hadn't left.

"I'm here to buy something."

Lu Yao pointed to the stall in front of Han Yunzhi and said calmly.

Now that he had come across it, Lu Yao naturally wouldn't miss out on the exquisite talisman-drawing brush.

"Oh? I see. Sorry."

"Hey little sister, we've got a customer!"

Han Yunshan was taken aback, scratched his head awkwardly, and called out to someone behind him.

"What would you like to buy, fellow Daoist?"

Han Yunzhi walked over, looked at Lu Yao with her big eyes, and asked softly.

Do you have a talisman brush for drawing talismans?

Lu Yao glanced at the stall in front of Han Yunzhi. There were no talisman brushes on it, only low-level magic tools and basic materials.

"A talisman pen? Yes, we do, but it's in the cave we've rented. Could you come again tomorrow morning, fellow Daoist?"

Han Yunzhi nodded quickly. Coincidentally, she had a talisman pen that she planned to sell, but she just didn't bring it with her today.

"Okay, I'll come again tomorrow morning."

Lu Yao nodded and turned to leave without hesitation.

After Lu Yao left, Han Yunshan went to her younger sister's side.

"He wants to buy a talisman pen? Is he a talisman master?"

Han Yun thought for a moment and couldn't help but guess.

Although talisman masters are not as sought after as alchemists, it is still a very lucrative profession, but talent is still required.

"Maybe so, otherwise why would they specifically buy a talisman pen?"

Han Yunzhi tilted her head and thought for a moment, her tone somewhat uncertain.

"We should make a good acquaintance with this person, so that we can get a better price when buying talismans."

"I went to Tianfu Tower to buy talismans today, and they actually charged me eight spirit stones for each one! Why don't they just rob me!"

Han Yun let out a groan and touched her storage bag with heartache.

"It's probably because the Ascension Ceremony is approaching that prices in Tai Nan Market have risen."

Han Yunzhi also looked helpless. Every time the Ascension Ceremony was held, Tai Nan Market would become lively. With more people, disputes would naturally arise, and the consumption of these consumables would also increase significantly, making price increases inevitable.

However, Han Yunzhi wanted to sell the talisman brush for the sake of her elder brother. Han Yunshan's cultivation level had been stuck at the eleventh level of Qi Refining, and he desperately needed pills to enhance his magical power.

With the Ascension Ceremony just around the corner, elixirs that enhance magical power are in high demand but not readily available.

If Lu Yao were to sell the Qi Condensation Pills among independent cultivators, the price would increase by 20% to 30%, so there would be no shortage of buyers.

Han Yunzhi wanted to sell the Golden Bamboo Brush to buy pills to enhance her brother's magical power, hoping to break through his cultivation level before the Ascension Conference and increase his chances of winning.

After returning to his cave, Lu Yao immediately started refining pills again, continuing until the next morning.

Refining pills takes time, averaging half an hour to refine one batch. So when Lu Yao stopped, he had only refined about twenty bottles of pills.

Fifteen of the bottles contained high-quality Qi Condensation Pills, enough for Lu Yao to cultivate to the thirteenth level of Qi Refining.

Lu Yao was able to improve his cultivation so quickly not only because of the condensation of the pill's magical power, but more importantly because he was already at the thirteenth level of Qi Refining, so he didn't need to break through level by level like other cultivators, saving a lot of time.

After tidying up the mess left behind after refining the pills, Lu Yao did not rush to leave the cave. Instead, he took out the complete set of spells he had purchased from the Myriad Laws Pavilion.

After carefully reviewing the spells and gaining a basic understanding of their casting techniques, the Haotian Pearl emitted a fluctuation, indicating that Lu Yao could directly use the world's origin to enhance himself.

The spells learned during the Qi Refining stage are not very difficult and can be learned quickly. However, learning them does not mean that one can use them proficiently. For example, Lu Yao needs more than twenty breaths to activate the Fireball spell, which is obviously not suitable for actual combat.

By the time Lu Yao used the fireball technique, the corpse was already cold.

But if you ask whether you've learned the Fireball Technique, then you definitely have.

So Lu Yao spent half an hour memorizing the spellcasting techniques of these thirty-six spells, and was able to use the World Origin to improve his spell proficiency.

The same applies to the Huang family's alchemy method; once one has grasped the basics, one can use the world's origin to rapidly improve.

"Haotian Pearl! Upgrade!"

Lu Yao silently shouted in his heart, and a milky white light enveloped him, but it slowly dissipated after only a few breaths.

Origin of the World: →2516

Lu Yao opened his eyes, comprehending the perfect mysteries of the thirty-six spells.

Perfected-level Qi Refining spells are extremely powerful. With Lu Yao's current cultivation level of the eighth level of Qi Refining, even ordinary Qi Refining level thirteen practitioners would not dare to take the hit head-on.

Lu Yao nodded, quite satisfied with the thirty-six spells he had purchased.

"Cleaning Technique!"

As Lu Yao activated his magic power, a gentle breeze appeared out of thin air and enveloped him. After a dozen breaths, Lu Yao was completely transformed. His long hair became smooth and natural, and the dust on his body was swept away.

Lu Yao walked straight out of the cave and headed towards the place he had arranged to meet Han Yunzhi.

In the trading area for independent cultivators, Han Yunzhi was squatting in front of her stall, watching the passing cultivators with boredom.

When Lu Yao walked over, Han Yunzhi also saw him.

You're late!

Han Yunzhi stood up abruptly, hands on her hips, and haughtily snorted.

Lu Yao was taken aback when he heard this. He looked up at the sky and saw that the sun was already overhead, it was noon.

"Um, it was I who was delayed for a while, please forgive me, young lady."

Lu Yao touched his nose somewhat awkwardly and said helplessly.

The agreed time was the morning of the following day, so Lu Yao was indeed late.
