Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 25: Illusionary Demon Transformation Technique, Treasure from the Rogue Cultivator

After listening to these gossip, Zhou Sui walked into his own quiet room and took out three storage bags from his body, all of which were obtained from Mi Yun San Sha.

After spending some time completely erasing the imprints on the three storage bags, he swept his spiritual awareness and instantly sensed the many items inside the bags.

"There are actually so many treasures?"

Zhou Sui widened his eyes, secretly surprised.

First of all, there were the cultivation techniques obtained by Mi Yun San Sha, such as the Evergreen Art, Golden Yuan Art, Wind Spirit Art, Thick Earth Art, Water Source Art, and so on, all of which were relatively basic Qi Refining stage cultivation techniques.

At most, they could cultivate up to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

But if sold, each technique would be worth two to three hundred low-grade spirit stones.

In addition to these cultivation techniques, there were also many spells, such as body protection spells, ice spells, spring rain spells, fireball spells, wind blade spells, flying sword spells, and so on.

In short, the combination of these cultivation techniques and spells amounted to at least over a hundred.

There was no doubt that these things couldn't have been bought by Mi Yun San Sha. They should have been obtained from other cultivators they killed during their robberies.

Because they had killed so many cultivators, over time, they had acquired many cultivation techniques and spells.

To some extent, they had obtained the heritage of an ordinary cultivator family.

If these cultivation techniques and spells were sold, they would be worth at least several thousand low-grade spirit stones, or even tens of thousands of them. They were quite valuable.

With these basic cultivation techniques, one could even establish an ordinary cultivator family.

"There are actually so many pills and spirit stones."

Zhou Sui continued to investigate.

He found that there were eighteen bottles of Yellow Dragon Pills in the storage bags, and each bottle was worth five hundred low-grade spirit stones. It could be imagined that the Yellow Dragon Pills alone were worth nine thousand low-grade spirit stones.

In addition, there were Qi-boosting pills, detoxification pills, true essence pills, and other pills, all worth several thousand low-grade spirit stones.

However, there weren't many spirit stones, at most only a few hundred low-grade ones.

Most likely, they had converted most of the spirit stones into various pills.

But even so, from these things, one could see how wealthy Mi Yun San Sha was.

Clearly, they were only cultivators at the seventh level of Qi Refining, so normally, it would be impossible for them to obtain so many spirit stones and pills. Their wealth would be at most several thousand low-grade spirit stones.

But these three cultivators together possessed the wealth of twenty to thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

It could be imagined how many independent cultivators they had killed and how many treacherous acts they had committed to amass such wealth.

Even if their bodies were torn to pieces, it wouldn't be excessive.

"No wonder so many people become Rogue Cultivators. The money comes in too quickly."

Zhou Sui also marveled secretly.

But being a Rogue Cultivator also came with great risks. If one accidentally kicked the iron plate, they would be killed by the other party.

Years of accumulation would be destroyed in an instant.

Mi Yun San Sha was such an example. They had been rampant for more than ten years, but it was just unfortunate that they encountered him and ended up dead. This was the fate of a Rogue Cultivator.

Perhaps they would win a few times, but sooner or later, they would die.

It was similar to a gambler. They might win in the middle, but the result would always be losing.

"They are well-prepared to become Rogue Cultivators."

Zhou Sui's mouth twitched.

He also saw in the storage bags the corpse-disposing powder used to cover up their tracks, the soul-breaking smoke that could confuse other cultivators, and even the five-poison water that would poison upon contact.

In short, they would go to any lengths to kill their enemies.

Fortunately, I was able to kill the three rogues from Misty Cloud from a distance.

If I had gotten close to them, I might have been killed by their various means.

"It seems that long-range attacks are reliable after all. Who would engage in close combat with you?"

Seeing these malicious methods, Zhou Sui was also terrified. Indeed, every Rogue Cultivator was extraordinary. No one knew how many hidden tricks they still had.

But no matter how many tricks they had, they were still no match for the power of the Dream Soul Gu.

Before they could use these methods, they were instantly killed.

From this perspective, it could be considered one thing defeating another.

"But the most valuable thing should be this secret manual."

At this moment, Zhou Sui noticed one of the manuals.

His gaze fell on one of the manuals, and the cover read "Illusion Demon Transformation Technique." There was no doubt that this was a top-level demonic auxiliary technique.

He carefully studied it and found that this technique could change both his body shape and appearance into something else.

If cultivated to a high level, it could even conceal his cultivation level and change his aura, completely transforming him into someone else.

Why were the Misty Cloud rogues able to rampage for over a decade without being killed by other cultivators?

In addition to their cautious actions, the most important thing was this demonic technique.

The Misty Cloud rogues were originally just insignificant independent cultivators. Later, by chance, they found the remains of a demonic cultivator's Cave Mansion, which had existed for at least a few hundred years.

As a result, they found this demonic technique, the "Illusion Demon Transformation Technique," in that Cave Mansion.

With this technique, they could change into the appearance of different people and alter their aura.

So even though Misty Cloud City had once issued a wanted order for them, they could still enter Misty Cloud City without anyone knowing their true identities.

If it weren't for Zhou Sui personally taking action and killing them instantly, they would probably have continued to rampage for decades.

"If I can successfully cultivate this technique and combine it with my clone gu, wouldn't it be like adding wings to a tiger?"

"By then, my clone can change into the appearance of another person and sell spirit wine, and no one will be able to catch me."

Zhou Sui's eyes lit up, feeling excited in his heart.

He felt that obtaining this technique was truly a gift from heaven. His luck was simply too good.

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate and immediately tried to cultivate this technique.

...

Three hours later.

"Damn it, what kind of bullshit technique is this? Why can't I learn it no matter what?!"

Zhou Sui clenched his fist, gritting his teeth.

Although he obtained this technique, he found that he couldn't even get started no matter what he did.

Obviously, learning this technique was not as simple as he thought.

Even the Misty Cloud rogues had spent ten years before barely getting a grasp of this technique.

And he, wanting to learn this technique in a short period of time, was simply wishful thinking.

"It turns out I'm not a genius after all, just an ordinary person."

Zhou Sui felt very frustrated.

Originally, he thought that after possessing an eighth-grade spiritual root, his comprehension and cultivation aptitude would improve a lot, and perhaps he would be able to learn various techniques and arts on his own.

But now, it seemed that he had overestimated his spiritual root aptitude. Even with an eighth-grade spiritual root, he was still just a low-grade spiritual root, belonging to the bottom-tier cultivators, not worth mentioning.
