Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 88: Master's Perfection (Subscribe for the Third Update)

"Qi Niang, someone is watching the back door of the Zhou family. I have a feeling there might be trouble," Gao Xian said.

"I left a mark on that person. I'll go check the situation later. You wait for my message at home," he continued.

"We can't ignore the Zhou family's situation," Zhu Qi Niang nodded. Gao Xian had been cooperating with Zhou Ye, and now he was asking Zhou Ye for help with a big matter. It was only right for him to lend a hand.

"It's very likely the Red Snake Gang again. It's not surprising that they're targeting Old Zhou. In the past year or so, he has sold countless Deer Horn Powder, and I'm starting to get jealous. Not to mention others..." Zhu Qi Niang said.

Zhou Ye sold the Deer Horn Powder refined by Gao Xian exclusively. It was a unique business in Feima City.

He could sell at least a thousand Deer Horn Powders in a month, and he had been selling for over a year, so he must have sold over ten thousand.

The external selling price of Deer Horn Powder was five spirit stones per pill, which added up to over two thousand spirit stones. That was a large sum of money.

It was easy to calculate. The male cultivators in Feima City knew that Zhou Ye had become wealthy.

In comparison, Huang Ying, who sold Tian Gui Pills, was much more low-key. She knew how to get along with people and often gave small benefits to female cultivators.

Although the female cultivators would discuss this matter privately, few showed any ill will towards Huang Ying.

Zhou Ye had the backing of Lianyun Sect and couldn't be provoked by ordinary wandering cultivators. Even the small factions in Feima City had to consider Lianyun Sect's face and wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

Only the foreign Red Snake Gang acted without any scruples. It was reasonable for them to target Zhou Ye.

Afraid that Qi Niang would be unhappy, Gao Xian forced a smile and said, "Qi Niang, I promised to sell exclusively to Old Zhou, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."

At that time, Changsheng Hall was still under the leadership of Zhu Hong'an. To avoid him, Gao Xian handed the Deer Horn Powder to Zhou Ye.

Although Zhou Ye liked to take advantage, he still followed the rules. They had been cooperating happily all along. Moreover, there was Zhou Yuling's relationship, so Gao Xian couldn't easily terminate the cooperation.

The same went for Huang Ying. They had a good agreement at the beginning, and there was no reason to go back on it.

Qi Niang managed Changsheng Hall and was definitely envious of the Deer Horn Powder and Tian Gui Pills, as they were the best-selling pills. Gao Xian did feel a bit sorry for Qi Niang in this regard.

Seeing Gao Xian's troubled expression, Zhu Qi Niang couldn't help but smile. "I was just saying. Changsheng Hall will be taken back by the Zhu family sooner or later."

"It would be troublesome to keep the Tian Gui Pills and Deer Horn Powder in Changsheng Hall," Gao Xian breathed a sigh of relief. Qi Niang understood this point, and he said, "I'll go prepare first. You wait for my message at home. Don't come with me."

He was just going to take a look. If there was a situation, he could come back and find Qi Niang.

After all, Feima City was not that big. It wouldn't take much effort to go around.

Gao Xian returned to his bedroom and took out the Black Snake's Xuan Water Robe. This robe was black and had a faint water-like glow, indicating its extraordinary quality.

According to Qi Niang, this Xuan Water Robe was a high-grade first-tier item. It was one level higher than the Qingyun Robe, but its price was several times more expensive.

After obtaining it, Gao Xian had tried it on many times in private. Mainly to test the robe's various functions.

The Xuan Water Robe had two inherent spells: Xuan Water Shield and Xuan Ice Ring.

The Xuan Water Shield was like a faint water glow, but its defensive ability surpassed the four-layered overlapping Wood Shield.

Moreover, the Xuan Water Shield was dense and seamless, covering the whole body like a hood. It provided all-around protection and could even defend against poisonous gases like miasma without affecting the casting of spells.

Overall, it was much stronger than the Wood Shield.

The Xuan Ice Ring was an offensive spell. When activated, it released a translucent ice ring that could envelop a space with a diameter of thirty feet.

The freezing cold emitted by the Xuan Ice Ring was enough to freeze a Qi Refining stage cultivator, even experts like Qi Niang would slow down their movements and even experience a delay in the circulation of their spiritual energy within the range of the Xuan Ice Ring.

In addition, the Xuan Water Robe itself was exceptionally flexible and provided excellent protection against swords and spells. It also had a unique ability to separate water and avoid fire.

Once in the water, the Xuan Water Robe could automatically split the water flow and greatly reduce water resistance. This characteristic also allowed the Xuan Water Robe to easily separate air resistance, greatly increasing the user's traveling speed.

This was different from the Wind Riding Technique. The Wind Riding Technique increased speed by harnessing the wind's spiritual energy, similar to how a kite flies with the wind.

The Xuan Water Robe's water separation ability was not a spell and didn't require activation to reduce various resistances. It was more convenient than the Wind Riding Technique.

The higher the cultivator's cultivation level, the more useful the Xuan Water Robe's water separation ability became.

Gao Xian usually didn't dare to wear it, fearing that someone from the Red Snake Gang would see it.

Feima City was a mix of dragons and snakes, and anyone could be a member of the Red Snake Gang.

Today was different. There might be a fight, so he had to bring out all the good things.

In this low-level battle, the margin for error was very low. A single detail could determine victory or defeat.

Originally, the black snake was slightly taller than him, and the Xuan Water Dao Robe was a bit big. Now that he has grown more than an inch, it fits perfectly, as if it were tailor-made.

Gao Xian looked at himself in the bronze mirror and was very satisfied. He took out the elixirs and talismans, categorizing them and putting them into his sleeve pockets.

He checked the Crimson Flame Sword, making sure it was in its proper position. With a thought, the Crimson Flame Sword responded, indicating that everything was fine.

He tied his shoes tightly and adjusted the Qing Frost Sword. He tested drawing the sword and found no obstacles or discomfort.

Gao Xian was ready to leave when suddenly he stopped.

He didn't plan to take action, but what if, what if he encountered a situation where he had to fight?

The world is unpredictable!

He didn't know what he would encounter, so he could only do his best to be prepared for any situation.

Gao Xian thought about it and took out the Wind and Moon Mirror, as well as over 7,600 points of Human Dao Spiritual Light.

After some contemplation, Gao Xian decided to upgrade the Electric Light Dragon Palm.

To upgrade the Great Occult Divine Technique would take at least half a year, and during such a long time, who knows what unexpected events might occur.

After consuming over 5,700 points of Human Dao Spiritual Light, the Electric Light Dragon Palm reached the Grandmaster level.

Lan Jie emerged from the Wind and Moon Mirror, her whole body radiating electric light. Her organs, bones, muscles, and tendons were faintly visible in the electric light.

At the same time, electric light flowed within Gao Xian's body, refining his bones, organs, muscles, and tendons...

After a while, the electric light on Gao Xian's body gradually dissipated.

He looked at the Wind and Moon Mirror again, and the description of the Electric Light Dragon Palm had changed.

Electric Light Dragon Palm: Able to control the power of electric light as desired. (6000/6000, Grandmaster Perfection)

The upgraded Electric Light Dragon Palm had a shorter description.

Gao Xian couldn't quite explain what had changed. When he looked at the front of the Wind and Moon Mirror, he saw that his lifespan had become 125 years.

The Grandmaster Perfection level of the Electric Light Dragon Palm had increased his lifespan by thirty years.

This was not just a matter of lifespan increase; it represented a comprehensive evolution of his body.

In terms of effects, this upgrade was even more significant than advancing to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Gao Xian found it difficult to describe his current state. It felt like everything had changed, yet nothing had changed.

He held the Qing Frost Sword in his hand, and the exquisite lotus patterns on the hilt appeared in his mind, including the length of the hilt, the weight of the sword, and the angle at which the sword was sheathed, all details were vividly presented in his mind.

Even after having the Qing Frost Sword for so long, this was the first time Gao Xian had such precise control over its state.

He drew the sword with a casual slash, and the green sword edge flashed through the air. The green sword light moved like a long snake, wandering and undulating in the dim room, circling several times in an instant.

When the sword chant dissipated and the wandering sword light disappeared, Gao Xian returned to his original position.

In an instant, he had circled the room, moving effortlessly on the walls and ceiling as if they were level ground. This was because he was too fast and had the support of the magnetic wheel, allowing him to move freely through barriers.

While moving, he continuously struck with his sword a hundred times, causing the sword light to spread throughout the room.

Gao Xian sheathed his sword and stood still, calm and relaxed.

The Grandmaster Perfection level of the Electric Light Dragon Palm had doubled his speed and reaction.

Moreover, this was only the limit of his body, not the limit of the Electric Light Dragon Palm.

Faster speed required a strong body to support it. He also had to control the twenty-seven-pound Qing Frost Sword, which was an even more severe test for his body.

To coordinate his body, strength, technique, and speed, he could truly unleash the advantage of extreme speed.

Gao Xian had achieved this step, where he could control the Qing Frost Sword with precision, advancing and retreating naturally, adapting to various changes in lightness, heaviness, slowness, and urgency.

There was even a hint of the unity of mind and sword.

When controlling the magnetic wheel spell, Gao Xian could perceive the subtle changes in the invisible mana and geomagnetic aura, feeling the flowing geomagnetic aura rotating and undulating. He could naturally make various adjustments accordingly.

Because of such precise control, he could move freely and draw his sword calmly in the training room.

Next door, Zhu Qiniang heard the low and deep sword chant. She asked through the closed door with concern, "Ah Xian, what's wrong?"

Gao Xian laughed and opened the door, leaving Zhu Qiniang puzzled as to why he suddenly seemed so happy.

Gao Xian didn't explain, he just hugged Zhu Qiniang tightly and kissed her deeply. "My beauty, go and relax, I'll be back soon..."
