Starting From A Fisherman To Cultivate Immortality And Live Forever

Chapter 60: Qi Refining Sixth Layer, Black Locust Tree!

Seeing Zhou Xuan, the young Daoist, so energetic and actively participating in alchemy, Su Ping felt quite pleased.

In the following round of cultivation, it seemed that because of the recent pleasant mood, Su Ping felt a surge of spiritual energy in his body. In his mind, there seemed to be many insights that were both true and false.

"Is it time for a breakthrough so soon?"

"But this is within expectations. The spiritual energy concentration in the Pot Realm is no less than that of the outer sect's cave mansion. I replenish with so many pills and monster meat every day... Even inner sect disciples don't receive such treatment."

Taking a deep breath, Su Ping calmed his mind, and the speed of his spiritual energy circulation increased slightly.

Since it was a spontaneous breakthrough rather than something forced, it meant that Su Ping had reached the limit of the fifth layer of Qi Refining.

There was no need to continue suppressing the breakthrough!

Boom!

Su Ping continuously circulated his spiritual energy, not knowing how long had passed, but he suddenly felt a barrier in his body break.

In an instant, Su Ping felt that his maximum spiritual energy had increased by fifty percent compared to before.

With a wave of his hand, he used his object manipulation technique, and the potted plant weighing tens of kilograms in the room floated directly in mid-air.

"The sixth layer of Qi Refining not only means a profound spiritual energy, but also makes spellcasting much more convenient."

"Among the outer sect disciples, reaching the sixth layer of Qi Refining surpasses most of them. It's only one small realm away from being able to serve as an outer sect steward!"

"Today is worth celebrating!"

"Well... let's start with a ten consecutive draw!"

Su Ping lay on the bed, took a sip of tiger bone wine, and exchanged twenty large blue fish for 100 fishing coins.

Then, he started the ten consecutive draw that he hadn't been willing to do last time!

Swish, swish, swish!

This time, out of the ten consecutive draws, eight were common and two were rare, slightly better than the previous draw that only had one guaranteed rare.

[Black Locust Tree, special building, quality: rare, exclusive to the Pot Realm, after being arranged, it will slightly change the surrounding terrain, can be offered fish once every seven days in exchange for unknown rewards]

[Dreamlike Temple, main building, quality: rare, exclusive to the Pot Realm, after being arranged, it can slightly increase the production of spiritual energy]

"A main building? So it's temporarily useless?"

"This Black Locust Tree seems to have the same style as the Buried Bone Ground, so they can keep each other company."

Su Ping summoned the Black Locust Tree and found that it was a giant tree at least a hundred meters tall, with large faces of old ladies with pained expressions appearing on the bark in all directions.

This made Su Ping strongly suspect that the prototype of this special building was the tree demon granny from the Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio.

He didn't know what the unknown reward would be... Could it be a bone ash jar that can summon various ghosts?

If it's a bone ash jar that can summon powerful ghosts, Su Ping wouldn't mind.

Swish!

The hundred-meter-tall Black Locust Tree appeared beside the Buried Bone Ground, its tall and lush canopy covering most of the slope.

At this moment, if one stood on the slope of the Buried Bone Ground, they would see a gloomy graveyard and behind it, the almost obstructed view of the giant locust tree with faces.

Combined with the surrounding mist and the wailing ghost fires, this place had a completely sinister and terrifying villain's lair atmosphere.

Fortunately, Su Ping already had a corresponding disguise for this kind of atmosphere in his mind.

An evil cultivator disguise, the Rat Daoist!

Compared to the fortuitous encounter with Dong Wangguan, this Zhexian person is clearly a righteous character.

Su Ping privately believed that an image of a villainous cultivator would make it easier for those wealthy individuals he would interact with in the future to understand the rules, know when to advance and retreat, and have a sense of reason.

After all, there will always be people who can't help but think that gentlemen can be deceived, and they will point their guns at honest people.

But when faced with those truly wicked individuals who dare to act without regard for right or wrong and physically harm others, he chooses to take the initiative to show goodwill and learn to argue for them from their perspective.

Su Ping put on a white mask with a black ink-drawn rat pattern, activated the illusion jade pendant around his waist, and changed his appearance.

In the blink of an eye, an old and feeble figure, wearing a rat-patterned mask that covered his entire face, leaning on a cane, appeared. He seemed to be on the verge of death, but exuded a chilling and intimidating aura. This Rat Daoist, who made people feel fearful, was born in the master bedroom of the Chao Yue Ting Feng Pavilion.

Su Ping examined his new appearance and made some modifications before nodding slightly.

"The grade of the illusion jade pendant is a bit low. It can only deceive Qi Refining cultivators and ordinary people. Those with higher cultivation will discover my disguise."

"But it's enough on the Water Blue Star. Even if I'm captured on surveillance videos or by satellites, they won't recognize my true identity."

"They will only look for a villainous Rat Daoist who appears to be on the verge of death and is urgently seeking a successor!"

"Hehehe!"

After Su Ping transformed into the Rat Daoist and tried the signature villainous smile, he satisfactorily went to the burial ground.

The energy accumulated in the burial ground was already sufficient to summon ghosts.

Curiously, Su Ping chose to summon, and then saw a blue ghost fire slowly emerge from the black soil beneath his feet.

This ghost fire continued to expand and transform, eventually turning into a translucent blue ghost resembling a lamp deity.

This ghost looked like a hanging ghost with a long tongue, with indistinct facial features. Its upper body was dressed in funeral clothes, while its lower body was a constantly rolling and burning ghost fire.

"It has strength similar to an ordinary person, and apart from its appearance, it doesn't have any special abilities. It can even be dispersed by physical attacks..."

"So, besides being a handyman, it can only be used as an ornament?"

"But after all, it's just a bonus item for a rare building, and the price is so low, so it's understandable."

Su Ping turned his gaze to the Black Locust Tree.

Compared to the bonus item from the burial ground, the gift from this special building was more worth looking forward to.

However... he didn't cherish the fish he caught now, and even if he had it, he wasn't extravagant enough to take it out in exchange for a gift.

So, can he only hope that the Great Blue Fish can exchange for something good?

After his level increased, the output of the Great Blue Fish had significantly increased, so Su Ping wouldn't feel heartache for one or two.

The Black Locust Tree only needed one each time.

Unable to rely on quantity, Su Ping could only take out a Great Blue Fish and throw it to the Black Locust Tree.

Splat!

The face in the center of the Black Locust Tree slightly opened its mouth, and a few black branches emerged, swiftly wrapping around the suspended Great Blue Fish before quickly pulling it back into its mouth.

After a sour sound was heard, a seed was spit out and flew slowly in front of Su Ping.

[Strange tree seed, disposable item, range: ten meters. After use, it ignores the protection of targets below the third rank, instantly generating bizarre vines inside the target's body. The vines randomly produce three negative effects: poison, bloodsucking, and paralysis, which last until they are cleared or the target's life is reduced to zero.]

"This thing is interesting!"

After reading the description, Su Ping's eyes lit up.

With his strength as a physical cultivator, if he approached his opponent, even if this tree seed was weak, it could still disrupt the opponent's rhythm in the first moment.

In a life-or-death battle, this momentary mistake would be enough for a physical cultivator to land dozens of punches or make a dozen cuts.

Not to mention, if he encountered certain special situations, such as when a big shot was controlling an array to unleash a powerful attack.

If he were to use this on the opponent at that time, wouldn't the opponent immediately suffer a backlash from the attack?
