Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 29: Don't Disturb My Dao Heart!

Fifth Level of Qi Refining!

Before leaving the mountain, Su Ping yearned for a cultivation realm that was unattainable.

Unexpectedly, he smoothly stepped into it.

This made Su Ping recall his memories of when he was diligently cultivating, and he felt the beauty of his current realm. It felt somewhat unreal.

However, this sense of unreality couldn't suppress the excitement welling up in his heart. It made Su Ping stand up and open the door to the training room.

He wanted to announce his breakthrough to the outside world.

To make everyone, especially his fellow outer disciples and those high-ranking elders, take notice of him!

But just as this thought emerged, a night breeze blew in with the opening of the door.

Su Ping's body trembled as he remembered those Foundation Building cultivators who were high and mighty.

He thought of the rumors about those ruthless demonic cultivators who killed without blinking.

The rationality that Su Ping temporarily lost due to his breakthrough regained its dominance.

"Heh, it's just the fifth level of Qi Refining. How did it make me so complacent?"

"Twenty years of arduous cultivation have indeed tempered my ambitions. Just reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining has made me so satisfied and joyful!"

"What's the point of announcing it? I've already broken through. It's been a long time since I've slept. I should get a good night's sleep tonight!"

After Su Ping figured it out, drowsiness came over him, and he quickly returned to his bedroom and fell into a deep sleep.

Meditation during cultivation could also replace sleep.

But without a short rest, one would always feel something missing when awake.

After breaking through in cultivation and having a good night's rest, Su Ping summoned the spirit mice, Little White and Little Grey.

He left Little Grey in charge of the other elite mice and let these controlled mice, who had adapted to the local environment, scatter and gather information in the territory of Golden Sparrow City.

Su Ping didn't promote these elite mice brought from the Blue Water Star to spirit mice.

On the one hand, they were, in a sense, reserves for the extraordinary self-destructive mice. If they were promoted to spirit mice in advance, they might develop self-awareness and cause variables.

On the other hand, as scouts, they had a subtle connection with Little White and Little Grey, directly communicating through their minds.

The fluctuations of spiritual power generated during this process were almost imperceptible.

When investigating individuals with extraordinary powers, the fact that they were just ordinary mice actually made it easier to conduct covert investigations.

After leaving some enhanced food for Little Grey to facilitate its control over these mice, Su Ping carried Little White and headed towards a more distant market according to the map.

Su Ping didn't fly on a sword. With the use of his object manipulation technique, it appeared as if he was controlling a wooden sword flying in the air.

In fact, if he didn't consider the subsequent consumption of mana, his speed was no faster than running.

So Su Ping chose the most simple and unadorned method of travel... running.

Su Ping changed into a tight-fitting swordsman outfit, carrying a sword scabbard and wearing the Cloud-Soaring Boots. He raced along the official road.

At first, his body felt a bit awkward, but as he ran, it became more and more coordinated.

Gradually, Su Ping found that as he ran faster, it seemed that he didn't consume much stamina.

The stamina consumed in a few tens of seconds would recover in just one breath.

This made Su Ping even more delighted, and he secretly speculated that this should also be the effect of the third layer of tempering from the one-tenth Saint Body.

It seemed that becoming a body cultivator by relying on the Red Blood Rainbow Carp had a promising future?

After running for half a day, he passed several post stations.

He even left the territory of Golden Sparrow City and arrived at another large city, which was under the jurisdiction of Golden Spring City.

When Su Ping was close to his destination, he suddenly stopped and looked towards a village on the left.

It was a village near the official road, close to a small stream, with about thirty to forty tiled houses.

It was already noon, which was generally the time for work to stop and rest.

As for cooking at noon, they didn't do that. Having three meals a day was the standard for wealthy households.

Ordinary landlords and self-sufficient farmers only ate two meals a day.

However... even so, this village was unusually quiet!

Su Ping didn't plan to enter the village, but instead jumped up into the air about fifty to sixty meters high.

Using the vision of his spirit mouse, Xiao Bai, he carefully observed the layout and specific situation of the village in the distance.

Through Xiao Bai, Su Ping saw bloodstains everywhere in the village.

What was strange was that there were no bodies or living creatures to be seen, as if the entire village had become lifeless...

"This feeling, either it's caused by evil spirits or they encountered evil cultivators."

"If it were demons, the village should have already been destroyed."

Su Ping landed slowly and took out a candle from his storage bag, lighting it and inserting it into the ground.

After the candle was lit, it emitted a red smoke that hung in the air.

This candle was a warning candle distributed by the immortal sect to various city lord mansions, capable of producing red clouds and issuing warnings for a long time.

Naturally, Su Ping had brought some with him in case of emergencies.

If the visibility was good, this red cloud could be seen from either the post station or nearby towns, indicating that something had happened in this place and it was related to cultivators.

According to the normal procedure, if it was fast, independent cultivators would come to investigate within an hour.

Then they would notify the local city lord mansion and the inspectorate to handle the situation.

If the inspectorate was lazy enough and combined with the recent reminder from the immortal sect, there was a high probability that they would send people to seal off the area and wait for the arrival of the immortal sect.

After Su Ping finished his actions, he turned around and left the village.

Just as he was about to leave, Su Ping suddenly felt as if there was some kind of treasure appearing in the village.

When he turned around, he saw a faint halo emerging from the village, sacred and magnificent.

Seeing this, Su Ping took a deep breath and ran even faster!

Regardless of whether it was a real treasure or the work of evil spirits, he, Su Ping, didn't need these external things to disturb his Dao heart!

It was only when he couldn't see the red smoke he had released that Su Ping slowly adjusted his pace and breathed a sigh of relief.

He tidied himself up and took out a silver-white mask, putting it on his face.

At the same time, his body slightly changed using the shrinking bone technique from the mortal martial arts, altering his appearance slightly.

Then Su Ping entered a large market located in a canyon on the outskirts of Jinquan City called Baibao Market.

The scale of Baibao Market was slightly smaller than the official markets that Su Ping and other outer disciples would often visit, such as Yunshan Market.

The spiritual veins and array formations were also one level lower.

However, many members of immortal cultivation families did business in this market.

There were even rumors of a black market selling some inconvenient items.

As a result, there were no fewer cultivators coming and going here compared to Yunshan Market.

Su Ping had come a long way this time because he was attracted to the fact that this place was a mix of snakes and rats, and didn't inquire about the identities of the cultivators coming and going.

The layout of Baibao Market looked more like a mortal town.

After paying the entrance fee, which was worth a Qi and Blood Pill, Su Ping entered the market and immediately saw a row of shops at the city gate, all brightly lit, with beautiful female cultivators sitting at the door smiling at him.
