Liyang Sect

Cui Ling Market

Surrounded by mountains, the verdant landscape was shrouded in a light mist.

A bustling market stretching ten miles wide, filled with buildings of all kinds, sat amongst these idyllic surroundings.

In the sky, cultivators on magical instruments rode through the air, or practiced skywalking; on the ground, unique beasts roared incessantly. Cultivators bathed in divine light came and went through the market entrance.

A group of six, along with two children, holding a red-eyed white wolf, followed the stream of people into the marketplace.

The other cultivators in the market didn’t react unusually towards their appearance – only occasionally casting a few more glances towards the three women and the two children.

This group of people are none other than Xu Mu and his companions who have arrived in the region of Liyang Sect after a long and arduous journey across mountains and ridges.

After entering the market, Xu Mu first led them to an inn where they decided to take a temporary rest.

They planned to rest for several days before deciding on their next course of actions.

After nearly three months of travel, they were truly exhausted!

Though they had rested every day on their journey, the constant feeling of tension they had experienced couldn’t simply be mitigated through mere rest.

Only after reaching the marketplace in Cui Ling – a stronghold of the orthodox cultivators, did they finally manage to relax completely.

Inside the room, Xu Mu accessed his system to check the progress he had made during this period.

His lifespan is now 160 years since he has reached the Blood Exchange level, progressing a step closer to the life expectancy of 200 years at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

There has been considerable improvement in his cultivation too. In the span of a little over three months, he has raised almost two hundred points.

Such progress occurred because firstly, they had tier three monster beast meat to eat every day in the jungle. It was a very nourishing food.

He also had been continuously consuming pills.

Another factor was his breakthrough in Body Refinement at the Blood Exchange level which greatly improved his talent for cultivation, making his progress much faster than before.

His main cultivation method and various skills had made good progress too, even though he hadn’t deliberately practiced them.

These were the benefits of natural talent!

Truly gifted talents could progress the amount an average person would in years simply by eating and drinking.

Without talent, being an average person would be much more relaxing.

Fortunately, he now belonged to the group of gifted individuals.

At this rate, he feared he would soon be able to advance to the late stage of Qi Cultivation.

At that time, his lifespan and power would significantly elevate.

In terms of skills, the ones that improved the most were undoubtedly the Light Body Skill and the Thunderbolt Sword Skill, both reaching the grandmaster level. And he was just one step away from transcending them.

When the time comes, he fears there would be a significant step in advancement.

Xu Mu’s next upgrade target was still the Thunderbolt Sword Skill.

Apart from enhancing his power, the enhancement of his physique and talent that the Thunderbolt Sword Skill provided was what he genuinely valued.

In a while, he’d be settling down in Liyang City.

The environment there is stable, and a skill purely for power enhancement wouldn’t be very useful, so Thunderbolt Sword Skill, which can enhance both power and talent, was undoubtedly the best choice.

However, the biggest gain during this journey, was the “108 Forms of Yin and Yang Harmony”.

Although it could only be used under specific conditions, it has miraculous effects when utilized effectively.

If it hadn’t been for this strange skill, they might not have survived the Cloud Peak Mountain Range.

With that woman’s methods, killing them would be as easy as squishing ants.

“The major sects likely avoid delving deeper into the Cloud Peak Mountain Range due to that woman!”

Regrettably, the woman did not seem interested in taking him in, or else he wouldn’t have minded becoming a freeloader.

They were all people in the same line of work, so it wouldn’t have hurt him to host them a few more times.

Besides the increase in strength, they had also gained a significant number of resources.

The accumulated spirit stones alone amounted to over 13,000, of which part was earned by selling pills, but most of them were gifts.

The storage bags picked up in the Green Wolf’s nest also contributed a lot.

Those targeted by the Green Wolf were naturally not weaklings.

However, there should be none at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Then there were various magic artifacts and vestment robes whose value alone amounted to over ten thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

The number of talismans and pills was relatively small, almost completely exhausted during the journey.

Besides these, there were also materials from various monster beasts and a large amount of low-tier spiritual medicine.

These were all collected along the way!

Not only did he gather quite a lot, but the storage bags of others were also packed full; if converted to spirit stones, it would significantly increase their savings.

In the following period, Xu Mu went out early and returned late, constantly changing his appearance, investigating the area where Liyang Sect was located, while selling off all the unnecessary magic artifacts, vestment robes, and other materials.

After half a month!

Xu Mu, who sold off everything, received a total of more than 17,000 lower-grade spirit stones.

The price was much lower than he expected!

The reason for this was partly because he was in a hurry to sell, unwilling to waste too much time on this, so the price was relatively low.

The other reason is that Liyang Sect was proficient in the path of refinement, and there were many artifact refiners in the sect, so the price of magic artifacts in the surrounding area was generally low.

The market price was at least 30% lower than in the area of Clear River Sword Sect.

This was because Xu Mu set up the stall to sell it himself—if sold in the shop, the price would have been even lower.

For this reason, he had been eyed several times.

The fact that he was in the late stages of Qi Cultivation was particularly misleading.

Being new here, he didn’t want to cause too much trouble; after discovering someone was following him, he essentially used the Invisibility Technique to shake them off.

During this period, they all swapped their identity cards and became loose cultivators under the jurisdiction of the Liyang Sect.

Identity registration was inevitable. Without this identity card, they wouldn’t be able to rent or buy houses, let alone set up shops.

Most importantly, without it, they wouldn’t be allowed to board the flying boat.

If there were a large raid, they could even be considered spies from enemy forces.

Fortunately, they carried identity cards from White River City.

Both Liyang Sect and Clear River Sword Sect were affiliated to Tianhe Sect, so it was not troublesome to replace them as long as they were willing to spend spirit stones.

The Liyang Sect disciple responsible for registration didn’t seem surprised by their identities, and only through inquiry did Xu Mu know that many loose cultivators from Clear River Sword Sect had been arriving lately.

Not only from White River City but also other cities and marketplaces of the Clear River Sword Sect, as well as loose cultivators from Qinghe City, most of whom were from major Foundation Establishment families.

However, these Foundation Establishment families only made a brief stop, heading straight to Liyang City after registration.

Some loose cultivators stayed in Cui Ling Market and were likely to settle there in future.

After staying for several more days, the flying boat of Liyang Sect arrived.

Xu Mu spent seven medium-grade spirit stones to buy seven tickets. Two children and a white wolf counted as one ticket. Everyone packed up their belongings, boarded the flying boat, and headed towards Liyang City where Liyang Sect was located.

Zhang Shouren had originally intended to stay, but his grandson Zhang Yu was too attached to Xu Mu and wanted to go along with them, leaving Zhang Shouren no choice but to agree helplessly.

As a result, Xu Mu’s group started taking shape as a small clan..
