Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman-Chapter 106 - 93: Ridiculousness, Qi Cultivation Late Period!_2
Chapter 106: Chapter 93: Ridiculousness, Qi Cultivation Late Period!_2
“Hmm?”
“This must be the newcomer benefits for opening the Travel Shop!”
As Su Ping browsed through the booklet, he swiftly found a product that made his heart race after skipping over most of the decorative items that held no actual use:
[Universal Upgrade Scroll, consumable item, quality: rare, can instantly enhance any upgradable object produced by the Pot Cave Heaven]
[Required for exchange: 100 Fishing Coins]
...
“It can be bought with just 100 Fishing Coins, this is definitely a non-recurring benefit for newbies.”
Having had ample experience with the fishing card draw, Su Ping almost understood the pattern of this fishing game, which was to first offer some sweets to lure you into the pit and then employ a well-established killing strategy.
“Newcomer benefits, the sooner I get them, the sooner I enjoy them. And the only things I have to upgrade are the rare Memory Wand and the precious apprentice Fox-faced Witch.”
“As for which one to upgrade, I would need to think about it if it were a game, but right now, of course, the rarer and harder-to-come-by takes priority.”
Su Ping directly exchanged for the Universal Upgrade Scroll and then took out the Memory Wand to use it.
Suddenly, one of the imperceptibly tiny holes on the Memory Wand was filled with a dark blue gemstone.
[Memory Wand of Ancient Mysterious Existence +1 star, can be upgraded further]
As the prompt message scrolled past, Su Ping felt the changes in the Memory Wand after it was upgraded.
That is, when the player acts as a human-shaped Memory Illusion, they go from being non-attackable to attackable.
However, they still do not inherit the attributes and special abilities of the original memory entity.
It has to rely solely on Su Ping’s own ability to make a move.
But the aura of memory does not change, it is still the scent characteristic of the memory subject.
This allowed Su Ping to do more after donning a mantle in the future without worrying about a slight chance of exposing his real identity should he instinctively strike back when ambushed!
In addition, with the upgrade, the duration of casting skills increased from 4 hours to 6 hours, and the cooldown time decreased from 12 hours to 8 hours.
Su Ping was quite satisfied with this enhancement, as it could be used in reality to help himself, which was most important for him at the moment.
Then Su Ping used the ability of the Memory Wand and transformed into the White Crane Child.
This time, Su Ping, taking on the shape of the White Crane Child, began practicing Body Refinement and fist-fighting in the Pot Cave Heaven.
He quickly got accustomed to the differences in height and weight between the White Crane Child and his original body, successfully executing the North Dipper Greedy Wolf Fist.
Su Ping, who was in the late Body Refining period, was feeling a bit inflated.
He summoned the original White Crane Child and ordered it to spar with him.
To Su Ping, since he was in the late Body Refining period and the White Crane Child seemed to have the combat power of the late Body Refining period as well.
Sparring with each other… should significantly increase his practical experience!
A minute later.
Su Ping, transformed into a fleeting shadow, crashed through the blue-tiled wall of the Moonlight Listening Wind Pavilion, plunged into it, breaking a small wooden bridge, and destroying two artificial hills.
Only then did he cough and gasp for air as he climbed out of the rubble, turning to look at the White Crane Child hovering in mid-air.
“How come I’m still being outmatched by a puppet when we’re both in the late period of Body Refining, and I have the blessing of a Sacred Body?”
“But compared to before, when I didn’t even dare to spar with the opponent, I have already made a lot of progress.”
“And it’s just a bit painful, my skin isn’t broken, no big deal.”

Su Ping climbed out a bit awkwardly, dissolving the illusion on him.
Afterward, the White Crane Child slowly approached Su Ping, waiting for new instructions.
“Continue!”
Su Ping took a deep breath and with a thought, ordered from a distance for the apprentice Fox-faced Witch, who was snacking on melon seeds while reading a novel, to bless him.
Once again he ordered to spar with the White Crane Child!
With the blessing, Su Ping was able to keep up with the White Crane Child’s movements.
And no longer did the fight have a quick outcome.
It turned out that the Moonlight Listening Wind Pavilion suffered from the devastation of their battle, the well-structured pavilions laid to waste.
Fortunately, the main structure had the ability to recover and could gradually be restored to its original state.
Otherwise, Su Ping would not have chosen to fight there to adapt to complex environments in advance.
After a whole day of fierce fighting.
Only in the deep of the night did Su Ping feel content, letting go of the White Crane Child and starting to feast on the full banquet of Dragon Species Strange Fish.
Eating copiously of fish meat and Spirit Rice, drinking Spiritual Wine, and stuffing his mouth with a handful of Nourishing Yuan Pills before meditation.
After one night.
Sensing something, Su Ping suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a golden light pierce through the mystic membrane before his eyes, propelling his vision into a new realm.
With a casual glance through the window, he could see the fine details on the blue tiles of the distant walls.
Intuition once again grew, and with eyes closed, he could now see the different colors and approximate shapes of the objects around him.
It very much felt like the thermal radar sensing mode in a game.
“Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer!”
“I actually became a late period Qi Cultivation cultivator after just one night of training!”
Su Ping had not expected that after a fight with the White Crane Child and indulging in a hearty meal and drinks, he would break through to the late period of Qi Cultivation!
He had thought he would encounter a bottleneck.
After all, among the outer sect disciples, those who could enter the late period of Qi Cultivation were extremely rare.
In Su Ping’s batch, only that senior brother who had been cultivating for twenty years had become a deacon!
And because of that, he had been praised by the Immortal Sect and used as an example to inspire the outer sect disciples to work hard!
Once at the late period of Qi Cultivation in the outer sect, one is considered to have officially entered the lower levels of the Immortal Sect and counted as one of their own.
Outer sect deacons, ore vein guards, and managers of ordinary workshop cave mansions are mostly filled by late period Qi Cultivation disciples.
A few regarded as promising, such as that inner sect disciple with three swords on his back, could even command Immortal Boats and become inspection envoys.
And this is also why the late period of Qi Cultivation is so sought after, and why there is such a big treatment gap from the previous realms.
In the late period of Qi Cultivation, the five senses are greatly enhanced, and the Divine Soul is barely considered strong.
One can command vehicles used by cultivators such as Immortal Boats and Immortal Armor, are seen as skilled workers in the eyes of those above, even if they are still working for others.
“Qi Cultivation and Body Refinement, both at the late period!”
“I’ve finally reached this realm.”
“Just… I’ve got to keep an even lower profile with my status as an inspector of Golden Sparrow City.”
“Those with a lower cultivation than mine can only sense that I’m strong, but they can’t tell exactly how strong.”
“If I meet someone whose realm is not beneath mine, my realm cannot be hidden.”
“This is not conducive to my plan of low-profile development.”
Su Ping sighed, but he had no better solution.
He could only ensure that he would let the White Crane Child, such a puppet, take the lead when necessary.
His own true identity would avoid contact with the cultivator community as much as possible.
Luckily, these were troubled times.
As long as no earth-shattering events happened in Golden Sparrow City.
No one would come looking for a semi-retired nobody like himself.
Especially within large Immortal Sect organizations like the Merit and Demerit Hall, Punishment Alliance, if there are any updates during this time, then he is just a small fry at the Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation.
If there are no updates… even worse, he would seem like a failure who, after twenty years of hard cultivation, was still at the Third Layer of Qi Cultivation!
To be an effective inspector would be to use him to the fullest extent.
“To prevent those above from noticing me, I must ensure that Golden Sparrow City does not experience any mysterious major incidents.”
“For this, I still need to take preventive measures as much as I can.”
Su Ping returned to the Frost Moon Villa and immediately summoned the Spiritual Rats Grey and White, closing his eyes to contact the swarm of rats.
Soon, Su Ping discovered that after reaching the late period of Qi Cultivation and with another increase in his Divine Soul,
the speed at which he reviewed memory fragments sped up significantly, and many details which he previously ignored came to light.
In just a few minutes, Su Ping had finished this contact and found some strange places he hadn’t noticed before.
The downpour had lessened somewhat, but it was still raining.
In a small town that didn’t have many residents left.
Inside a standalone courtyard within the town,
a male and a female evil cultivator lay dead in the courtyard, their eyes wide open in death, as blood flowed from their large head wounds, pooling on the ground, almost forming a small pond.
Squeak squeak squeak!
A grey-furred Spiritual Rat quietly emerged from the sleeve of the female cultivator, trying to escape despite the rain,
but was blocked by a swift white figure and ruthlessly pinned against the corner of the courtyard wall, trembling in fear.
Su Ping waited for quite a while, confirming there were no anomalies, before maintaining the Memory Illusion of the White Crane Child and, wearing a mask, stepped into the courtyard.
These two evil cultivators were the ones hiding in the Mortal World that Su Ping had discovered by focusing on the details.
They were a bit lucky, having obtained a Spiritual Rat and then, with the help of this rat, committed multiple crimes that just happened to escape the patrol teams.
Several times, even the people from the City Lord Mansion or outer sect disciples passed by without discovering their tracks.
Unfortunately, as they say, walk the night often enough and you will eventually meet a ghost.
After so many crimes, traces were found and they were tracked down by Su Ping in a single night to be dispatched.
Su Ping looked at the Spiritual Rat controlled by Grey and White and found little interest in it.
Such inherently transcendent spiritual beasts, even if cultivators form contracts to control them, can never be as responsive as Grey and White are to him now, with a psychic connection.
There will always be hindrances, and at most they can be used as a substitute for early warning or scouting magic artifacts.
