Staying In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 62: The Art of Scent and Turtle Breathing Technique

Su Fan left Qionghua City and directly piloted the "Yin Wind Boat" heading north.

According to Jiang Wei, there is a cultivation family's market a few hundred miles away. Su Fan plans to stay there for a couple of days.

Gu Qinghuan should have spread the news. Recently, the Shifting Yin Sect has also dispatched a large number of disciples to search for the Luo Tian Sect throughout Zhao Country.

It seems that the entire Western Wasteland's demonic sects are targeting the Luo Tian Sect's influence.

Indeed, this Luo Tian Sect is quite sinister. In just under two years, it has spread throughout the Western Wasteland.

Moreover, the leaders and masters in various regions were originally mediocre Evil Cultivators and Independent Cultivators. Later, they inexplicably received dream transmissions.

By cultivating the techniques of the Luo Tian Sect, as long as you are willing to worship the evil gods, your cultivation speed will skyrocket.

Many people who were originally in the mid-stage of Qi Refining have broken through to the late stage in just under two years, almost catching up to those with Heavenly Spirit Roots.

Of course, this kind of cultivation method is unreliable and purely counterproductive.

Not only is the foundation unstable, but once cultivation is interrupted, it becomes impossible to break through to the Foundation Building stage in this lifetime.

But for Independent Cultivators with poor aptitude, they don't care about those things.

Because the Luo Tian Sect has developed too quickly, the various branches in different regions don't even recognize each other.

So all the demonic sects can do is sweep through the branches in various places, unable to capture the high-level members of the Luo Tian Sect because no one has ever seen them.

Moreover, the dream transmissions not only transmit techniques but also teach unique rune formations of the Great Principle. This is a bit terrifying.

Now, the demonic sects in the Western Wasteland are searching for the whereabouts of the Luo Tian Sect like madmen. They would rather kill a thousand innocent people than let one go.

At this time, Su Fan doesn't dare to touch this bad luck. It's better to find a place to stay for a few days and see how the situation develops.

Camel Mountain Market was established by a Foundation Building family in Zhao Country.

Relying on the small Spirit Vein of Camel Mountain, they have built a foundation after hundreds of years of cultivation.

When Su Fan arrived here, it was already evening.

Entering a mist-filled forest, the rich spiritual energy that greeted Su Fan made every pore on his body rejoice.

After nearly a year in the mortal world, Su Fan had almost forgotten this feeling.

The market is not big, only a small street that stretches for hundreds of meters.

Although there aren't many sparrows, the street is complete with shops on both sides. Although they are all small shops, they sell a variety of goods.

Although there aren't many Independent Cultivators nearby, the location is still good, and there is usually some popularity.

Camel Mountain is just a small Spirit Vein, but the concentration of spiritual energy in the market is not low at all.

Su Fan rented a room in the market for a monthly rent of five spirit stones.

The room is not big, only about ten square meters.

The furnishings can no longer be described as simple, there is nothing except for a kang bed.

This is already good enough, what more could you ask for.

Su Fan sat cross-legged on the kang bed, took out Jiang Wei's storage bag, which was about the size of five fists.

This old bastard had a secret room in his house. If Su Fan hadn't fused with the "Thunder Law Eye," he wouldn't have been able to find that place.

In the secret room, there were not only two secret techniques but also the spiritual stones and Law Weapons he had plundered from the Luo Tian Sect.

Although there were only over a thousand Low-Grade spirit stones and several Law Weapons that Su Fan didn't care about, beggars can't be choosers.

The Luo Tian Sect was established for a short time, and its followers were all poor.

For Jiang Wei to accumulate this much in such a short time, he was already quite talented.

The other black storage bag with the sect's mark on it belonged to the Shifting Yin Sect disciple in the dungeon.

Jiang Wei had also claimed it for himself and placed it in the secret room.

Although he released the person, he definitely wouldn't return the storage bag.

If it weren't for fear of the Luo Tian Sect in Qionghua City causing trouble for him, Su Fan wouldn't even bother with that Shifting Yin Sect disciple and let him fend for himself.

This Shifting Yin Sect disciple was an outer sect disciple, and the storage bag only had two compartments.

Inside, there were more than 500 spirit stones, three Law Weapons, as well as talismans and elixirs, but Su Fan didn't care about them.

However, there were two spell jade slips and several books that Su Fan was quite satisfied with.

One jade slip contained the records of several low-grade spells, although most of them were not currently useful, they were still valuable as they were part of the sect's heritage.

The other jade slip contained a cultivation technique called the "Yin Ming Jue," only the first three levels of which were recorded. It was the introductory cultivation technique for disciples of the Shifting Yin Sect.

This cultivation technique was of no use to Su Fan, and it only had the first three levels. However, if there was an opportunity to sell it, it could fetch a high price.

The books were borrowed from the sect's hidden library by that disciple.

There were cultivation insights and experiences left by senior predecessors of the sect, information about the customs of the cultivation world, and a book introducing the common knowledge of the cultivation world in the Western Wasteland.

For Su Fan, these were definitely priceless treasures.

It was impressive that even as an outer disciple, he could borrow so many precious books from the hidden library of the sect.

The most surprising book for him was the Shifting Yin Sect's talisman inheritance.

Although the book only contained the inheritance of a dozen or so low-grade talismans, it was enough for Su Fan.

He was worried about making a living in the demonic territory, so this book was a timely help.

These external items were not important to Su Fan. The key was the two secret techniques.

One was called the "Fragrance Sensing Technique," which belonged to a very obscure secret technique. It was relatively easy to learn, but difficult to master.

The other was called the "Turtle Breath Technique," a very simple secret technique, but it took some time to activate and deactivate.

Once the secret technique was activated, it would truly cut off one's own spiritual energy. If one were to be ambushed, they might not have time to deactivate the secret technique and would be in danger.

However, Su Fan was not worried about this. He practiced body cultivation, so even without spiritual energy temporarily, he could withstand a few ambushes.

Su Fan was very satisfied with these two secret techniques and eagerly began practicing the "Fragrance Sensing Technique."

The entry level was indeed fast, but after successfully using the technique, various smells overwhelmed Su Fan, causing him to frown.

This secret technique was indeed powerful, but it had one drawback: when the technique was used, all smells would be amplified several times, not just fragrances. Who could bear that?

Fortunately, deactivating the secret technique was quick, so it was tolerable.

As for the "Turtle Breath Technique," besides the slow activation and deactivation, it had no drawbacks for Su Fan.

If he had this secret technique before, Gu Qinghuan would never have been able to find his trace.

In the following days, Su Fan settled down in the Camel Mountain District.

He returned to his previous state, busy and fulfilled, spending every day in intense cultivation.

He practiced the Primordial Origin Technique twice in the morning and evening, the "Heavenly Demon Sacred Body Technique" second level in the morning, and the "Ghost Demon Spirit Forging Technique" in the afternoon.

The rest of the time was spent practicing swordsmanship, boxing, drawing talismans, and improving his proficiency in spells.

Every few days, Su Fan would set up a stall in the market to sell talismans.

It wasn't to earn a few spirit stones, but to gather information about various places in the Western Wasteland.

Cultivators coming and going would bring the latest news to the market.

Half a month later, Su Fan was selling talismans in the market.

He saw more than a dozen disciples dressed in Shifting Yin Sect robes entering the market.

Dozens of family members followed them and began to block all the exits of the market.

They even drove the independent cultivators out onto the streets.

The disciples of the Shifting Yin Sect began to use their Law Weapons to test the aura of each person one by one.

After so many days, Su Fan no longer had the aura of the demonic puppet, so he easily passed the test.

"Capture him, don't let them escape..."

Just as Su Fan finished the aura test, he heard a commotion in the distance.

Two cultivators dressed as independent cultivators were desperately running towards the outskirts of the market, but they didn't get far before they were engulfed in attacks from Law Weapons and talismans.
