Chapter 005 Delivered to Your Door
No need for repairs
Meanwhile, in another part of Qingyun City...
The location of his home is actually quite good; however, over the past decade, the surrounding buildings have gradually changed, and his neighborhood has slowly become desolate and remote. By now, it has essentially turned into a 'commoner area,' where almost all the residents are ordinary people. If we were to mention 'cultivators,' he is the only one left.
Upon learning that Lin Feng was actually alive and even harbored delusions of revenge, Han Tie was immediately filled with murderous intent. The item-receiving ring was something he would never allow the other party to reclaim, and he was determined to silence them for good
Lin Feng did not expect that, before he even went to find them, they would come to him on their own
Lin Feng felt for the first time that there were actually so many low-level cultivators in Qingyun City
Silently reciting "repair," after several breaths, the ore vanished, and the returning arm armor in Lin Feng's right hand was renewed.
However, Lin Feng was no longer in the mood to feel distressed over these spirit stones. After purchasing everything, he hurriedly made his way back home...
Uncertain how much time had passed, Han Tie awoke from his cultivation, exhaling a breath of turbid air, with a hint of joy appearing in his eyes
Carefully sealing the remaining scorpion blood and placing it under the bed, Lin Feng picked up the returning arm armor and a fist-sized first-level wind system crystal.
Just at that moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from outside, startling Lin Feng.
Repair successful
In other words, as long as he does not completely exhaust the power of the talisman until it is destroyed, this scorpion blood can still repair the talisman three to four times more
With the right hand holding the fireball talisman and the left hand grasping a small vial of scorpion blood, Lin Feng pondered for a moment before placing the talisman directly on top of the vial, then silently recited: "Repair..."
Additionally, two other materials and book supplies were also purchased at a single booth, costing one inferior spirit stone.
... ...
Han Tiedun was momentarily taken aback, but after regaining his composure, he immediately sneered, "Heh heh, truly unaware of his own mortality! Since that's the case... we shall 'kill' him once more!"
From the perspective of Earth standards, Lin Feng's home is actually not small: it is a standard two-bedroom apartment with a living room, kitchen, and bathroom, and there is also a small yard in front of the house
He had only a pitiful two low-grade spirit stones, and for many 'good items,' Lin Feng did not even have the qualification to inquire about their prices. Ignoring the enthusiastic greetings from the various stall owners along the way, he wandered through the market like a casual observer, searching for the things he needed
At this point, Lin Feng was truly spotless, having spent all of his two months' salary.
About half an hour later, Lin Feng opened his eyes again, exhaling a stream of white, mist-like vapor. He appeared to have regained his vitality, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes
Grade 1 fine iron and Grade 1 wind system concentrate are not difficult to find; however, Grade 1 fire scorpion blood is somewhat precious. This substance must be obtained by hunting monsters outside the city. Although they are only Grade 1 monsters, it is not something that an ordinary Qi refining practitioner can accomplish.
When Lin Feng arrived at the free market, he was slightly taken aback by the lively atmosphere here. This free market is quite similar to a flea market on Earth, with hardly any specialized shops. It is essentially an area where vendors can set up stalls freely, bustling with crowds and filled with the sounds of people, creating a vibrant scene.
... ...
After browsing for half an hour, Lin Feng finally found Fire Scorpion Blood at a stall. After some haggling, he purchased a small jar the size of a fist with a low-grade spirit stone.
Excitedly flipping the talisman back and forth, Lin Feng checked m.hetushu.com for a while. He could hardly resist the urge to cast a couple of fireballs to test it out. However, he ultimately decided to put the talisman away first. Then he looked at the small jar and discovered that there was still more than half of the fire scorpion blood left inside; it seemed that only about twenty to thirty percent had been consumed.
Lin Feng sensed the dwindling amount of true energy within him, muttered to himself, and then sat cross-legged on the bed to begin his breathing exercises
Han Tie furrowed his brow slightly and said, "Fourth, what are you doing? What happened?"
Bang ! ! !
It is said that after achieving the Great Perfection of Transcendence, one can ascend to immortality after undergoing the Immortal Tribulation and enter the Immortal Realm. However, that is merely a 'legend'—it has been two thousand years since anyone on the Moon Cloud Continent has successfully ascended.
... ...
Han Tie is merely an ordinary loose cultivator, who does not even dare to aspire to attain the Yuan Ying or Jin Dan stages. If he could establish his foundation, it would be a stroke of luck, as that would at least allow him to live for over one hundred years. Now, as he is about to break through to the seventh layer of Qi Refinement, he is in an exceptionally good mood
Lin Feng has worked at the Treasure Pavilion for such a long time that he is quite familiar with the prices of these materials, so he was not deceived—besides, he did not have any surplus spirit stones to be deceived out of.
In a room that appears somewhat chaotic, a figure is sitting cross-legged on the bed, resembling an old monk in meditation, engaged in cultivation
With a firm clench of his fist, Lin Feng gradually felt clarity in his heart, believing that the road ahead was bright and promising
Equipment Damage Level: 0
He also bought medium-grade magical tools and talismans? Hehe... I will not be polite in accepting these! Go, call the second and third brothers, we are going to raid that kid's home
I never expected... I, Han Tie, would actually obtain a Storage Ring. Could this be the so-called 'opportunity'? Haha! Han Tie said to himself with a proud expression, then pondered slightly and said to the book, "However, this Storage Ring has a restriction seal; no wonder that kid couldn't use it... Hehe, but this also indicates that there must be good things inside. As long as I advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, I should be able to open it, right? I really look forward to it..."
Lin Feng was filled with excitement, his heart leaping with joy. His cultivation speed had always been much slower than others, and he felt that his aptitude for cultivation was likely quite poor, perhaps not even qualifying as 'ordinary.' He had always been troubled by this, but now discovering that the restoration technique could actually aid in his cultivation was, of course, a delightful surprise.
Lin Feng's expression suddenly became serious, as if he had thought of something, and he immediately stood up and walked out
This person is none other than the muscular man who robbed Lin Feng yesterday. His name is Han Tie, and he is the 'boss' of the group of four from yesterday. He is somewhat well-known in the southern part of the city and is referred to as 'Boss Tie'.
Upon returning home, closing the door securely, and entering his own bedroom, Lin Feng could hardly wait to take out everything that had happened.
Finally, when the true energy within him ceased to dissipate, the red glow before him vanished in the blink of an eye, and at the same time, a stream of information appeared in his mind
When Lin Feng returned, it was already past noon. He casually bought a few buns to make do and went straight back to his home
A flash of joy appeared in Lin Feng's eyes as he focused again on the talisman in his hand. He discovered that the entire talisman was emanating a warm glow, and the originally dim runes had become solid and clear as if newly crafted. The talisman looked as though it had just been made!
Indeed, when he opened the door to his home, he immediately saw four additional people in the yard. The moment Lin Feng laid eyes on these four individuals, his pupils constricted, and a surge of uncontrollable anger and hatred flashed in his eyes
Sigh... After repairing three pieces of equipment, my internal energy has almost been depleted, just like in the illustrations and texts. It seems that my strength is still too low...
It is truly incredible
What? He actually didn't die? He still wants revenge
The free trading market in the eastern part of the city was a place Lin Feng had never visited before. Although it mainly attracted low-level cultivators in the Qi Refining stage, selling primarily low-tier materials, magical artifacts, and techniques, it was not a place for someone like him, a 'poor boy.' His spirit stones were barely enough for cultivation, let alone having any surplus to buy things.
Is there actually a slight increase in cultivation? Could it be that using the restoration technique has the same effect as cultivation? If that is the case, then as long as I frequently use the restoration technique, my cultivation growth should be much faster than before
Hearing the sound, it seemed that the main gate of the courtyard outside had been kicked open by someone! Subsequently, a series of footsteps came in.
Finally, that short sword was also repaired
The tall and thin man, with a slightly gloomy expression, said: "Brother, just now that kid Cao Yang came to report that the guy from yesterday is not dead! This morning, he appeared at the Treasure Pavilion as if nothing had happened. Moreover, he secretly purchased a medium-grade magical artifact and a talisman, and then headed towards the eastern part of the city to the free market. It seems he is preparing for something, and it is very likely that he intends to cause us trouble!"
Lin Feng could not help but exclaim. Although he did not know how to create talismans, he at least understood that making a talisman required special talisman paper, talisman brushes, the ability to outline runes, and the capability to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to draw it into the talisman. The process was extremely complex and difficult. However, when it came to him...! ... he surprisingly did not need to do anything at all; he only needed to prepare the materials and then use his skills.
While Han Tie was secretly pleased, a sudden sound of hurried footsteps came from outside. Then, the door was pushed open, and a tall, thin man entered quickly, accompanied by a librarian.
First, find a way to retrieve the ring, and then I can focus on planning to earn some spirit stones through restoration techniques. It seems that at least the resources for cultivation in the future will not be lacking, which is very good
After finishing the task, Han Tie did not rise but instead took out a black ring from his bosom, his eyes filled with even greater joy
Without saying anything, the ones who came naturally were Han Tie and the other three.
... ...
Regarding the seal within this artifact, Han Tie did not consider seeking help from others to unlock it—he was not foolish. Such things should naturally be kept to oneself. If he were to seek assistance from a more powerful cultivator to lift the restrictions, what if that person claimed it for themselves?
The moment the command was issued, Lin Feng felt the true energy within his body begin to slowly dissipate, while a peculiar force seemed to gather in front of him, forming a ball of red light that enveloped the talisman and small jar in his hand
The realms of cultivators are divided into nine major stages: Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Integration, Great Ascension, and Tribulation Crossing. Each major realm is further subdivided into nine levels, with the first three levels representing the early stage, the middle three levels representing the mid-stage, and the last three levels representing the late stage. Upon reaching the pinnacle of a realm after the nine levels, it is referred to as 'Great Perfection.' A breakthrough beyond this allows for advancement to the next realm
Hehe, looking at this situation... I will soon break through to the seventh level of Qi Refinement and enter the later stage of Qi Refinement, very good...
In what seemed like a few seconds to Lin Feng, time felt unusually long. Whether it was merely his illusion, he sensed that the talisman he held in his right hand seemed to be slightly warming up, as if it were beginning to burn.
He fastened the arm armor back onto his right arm, sheathed the short sword and hung it at his waist, a look of satisfaction appearing in Lin Feng's eyes
The resources required for cultivation are indeed considerable, and ordinary mortals can hardly afford them. Moreover, some individuals lack spiritual roots altogether, making cultivation impossible.
