Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 6: Respecting the Fate of Others

"Although spirit beasts are more expensive, it's clear that these spirit snakes are not wild or raised from a young age."

"There's too much spiritual energy, it's too dangerous to make a move."

Su Ping looked at the three spirit snakes, which had grown to nearly one meter long after devouring the meat pile he had prepared after successfully advancing.

He quickly realized that his plan to sell spirit beasts was a bit risky.

The wandering cultivators might not be able to tell, but they couldn't afford to buy them either!

Cultivators from prestigious sects who could afford them would definitely notice the problem with these spirit snakes and realize that they had advanced through external means.

Although it was indeed possible to advance successfully using waste pills, Su Ping was also using this method.

But in reality, Su Ping was worried that others might not believe this fact.

Compared to waste pills, they would probably suspect that he had some special opportunity, right?

Of course, Su Ping also understood that if he only sold them once or twice, the chances of being suspected and encountering problems were very small.

But!

For Su Ping, who already had the Fishing System and could have a bright future as a behind-the-scenes fisherman.

The risk... was still not worth taking!

"Selling spirit beasts is too dangerous!"

"It's better to sell materials directly. Although the profit is less, it's much safer!"

Su Ping made up his mind. He reached into his storage bag with his left hand and took out the Crimson Flame Wood Sword.

Swish!

With a flick of his wrist, the wooden sword emitted a dazzling red light.

Su Ping, at the fourth level of Qi Refining, instantly beheaded the snake heads of the three spirit snakes that had just finished eating and were facing away from him!

Immediately, Su Ping took out a wooden barrel for storing blood and a wooden box for storing fur and bones, skillfully dismantling the spoils.

Squeak squeak squeak!

Two small mice were startled by this sudden change and jumped off Su Ping's shoulder onto the desk.

When they saw that it was the spirit snakes that had been killed, they didn't feel any sadness. Instead, they instinctively showed a look of longing and asked Su Ping for blood food.

An emperor doesn't lack hungry soldiers, and a fisherman doesn't lack hungry mice.

Su Ping took out a small bowl and gave the two mice snake blood, as well as some snake meat.

Only then did he continue to dismantle the spoils.

In fact, the three spirit snakes didn't have any demon cores, and the quality of the materials was also lower-grade first rank, similar to that of a first rank young beast.

But this was to be expected, after all, they were ordinary beasts that had advanced. If you wanted to improve the quality, you would have to raise them for many years.

Hmm... maybe I can continue to feed them waste pills and purify them with spiritual herbs to shorten the cultivation time?

Su Ping thought of this and looked at the mice enjoying their food. He kept this idea in mind.

When there are more fishing spots in the future and fishing coins are not so scarce, he could give it a try and see if he could improve the quality of the spirit pets by stacking medicine.

For now... after earning spirit stones, it's still more important to improve my own cultivation!

After all, if I reach the Foundation Building stage, I can take over a market. By then, I won't have to worry and be afraid like I am now when selling spirit beasts!

Three days later...

Inside a bamboo forest surrounded by mist.

Su Ping took out a token to dispel the fog and had just entered the small path that appeared.

He immediately came face to face with a familiar person.

It was Yun Jiu, Su Ping's junior brother who had sold him the Beast Taming Talisman.

Although Yun Jiu came from a peasant family and appeared dull and small-framed, he had already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining early on. Coupled with his talent in beast taming, he was highly regarded by the outer sect elder.

However, at this moment, Yun Jiu's steps were unsteady and his face was pale.

He was in stark contrast to Su Ping, who had successfully advanced.

"Senior Brother Su! Why did you come to Yunshan Market?" Yun Jiu was somewhat surprised. He had heard about his senior brother, who had the lowest cultivation level, being stationed here.

"Junior Brother Yun!" Su Ping smiled and greeted him before directly stating the prepared excuse:

"Fortunately, when I went hunting outside the city, I encountered a few low-level demon snakes. Although I couldn't catch the big snake, I managed to capture a few snake offspring."

"I don't know how to use the materials from the demon beasts I've obtained, so I can only exchange them for some spirit stones."

Su Ping did not lie. Before coming here, he did organize the servants of the manor to go hunting and staged a scene of chasing demon beasts.

"Demon snakes?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jiu's eyes lit up.

He rubbed his slightly sore old waist and immediately asked Su Ping to buy snake blood.

Naturally, Su Ping would not refuse and subtly reminded Yun Jiu that excessive involvement between male and female cultivators was not advisable.

The female cultivators in this Immortal Mysterious Tower were all extraordinary. Even if they didn't deliberately exploit their clients, they couldn't stop male cultivators from feeling frustrated due to their own lack of foundation.

Moreover, judging from Yun Jiu's current appearance, he didn't seem to be able to withstand it.

However, Su Ping wouldn't say anything more than that.

These matters were not the concern of the elders of the Immortal Sect. How could he be bothered by them?

Yun Jiu immediately drank a mouthful of snake blood, and his complexion immediately became slightly rosier.

However, his body was still extremely weak.

He paused with some regret and said, "It's somewhat effective, but not much. The quality of these demon snakes is a bit low."

"Sigh, I really need to cultivate for a while before I can come again."

"Thank you, Senior Brother. Please rest assured, Luo Xianzi has me in her heart, and she has taught me the art of nurturing and accumulating energy. I know my limits."

Yun Jiu put away the remaining snake blood, bid farewell to Su Ping with a cupped fist, and hurriedly walked into the mist, disappearing from sight.

Su Ping withdrew his gaze, but memories related to Yun Jiu flashed through his mind.

He vaguely remembered that this junior disciple seemed to have been noticed by a steward from the outer sect and joined a small group, which led to his infatuation with a female cultivator in the market.

Su Ping keenly felt that things might not be as simple as they seemed, but he didn't delve into it.

As long as it didn't interfere with his fishing, cultivating, and seeking immortality, it was fine.

Setting aside the desire to help others and respecting the fate of others, Su Ping followed a small path and walked deep into the bamboo forest, officially entering the Yunshan Market.

After the mist dispersed, a prosperous town appeared before his eyes.

The previous Jiuye Market couldn't be compared to it at all.

As one of the official markets of the Red Kite Immortal Sect, the Yunshan Market possessed a second-grade lower-grade spiritual vein and had further increased the concentration of spiritual energy through the use of formations.

In addition, there were several Foundation Building cultivators stationed here to guard the market.

With these factors, many cultivator families in the surrounding area were attracted to settle here permanently.

Various industries related to cultivation were also established here, making it an extremely important trading hub in this region.

If Su Ping wanted to sell demon beast meat, this was naturally the most convenient place to do so.

He didn't even need to set up a stall. He simply found the most famous restaurant in the market and exchanged all the spirit snake materials in his storage bag for spirit stones in one go.

The chefs in the restaurant had some complaints about the snake meat Su Ping sold, thinking it was the lowest quality snake meat they had ever seen.

However, no one suspected that this snake meat had evolved from ordinary beasts.

After all, no one in this region had ever done such a foolish business of selling demon beast meat that could be controlled.

"Adding up my previous savings, I finally have a three-digit number of spirit stones."

Su Ping felt the number of spirit stones in his storage bag and couldn't help but relax, feeling much more at ease.

Since he had come to the Yunshan Market, Su Ping naturally didn't plan to leave just like that.

Considering the possibility of the only item in the Fishing Shop, the Return to City Talisman, bringing some surprises, Su Ping made a decision and headed towards the main street of the market, entering a shopping mode.

Even if he couldn't afford good magical tools or high-level talismans, he could at least buy a batch of concealment talismans that could hide from mortals!

He also exchanged his previously cherished robe for a new one that had the Mist Technique added to it.

He also bought a set of formation plates and flags that could be used to set up simple formations.

In addition, he purchased some low-level spirit fruits and spirit wines that were beneficial to both cultivators and mortals, as well as calming incense that could help with meditation.

Although he spent all his spirit stones, Su Ping felt much more relaxed and gained more confidence in the future.
