Chapter 622: Chapter 312 City Lord’s Audience_2
While these people were waiting for the Market Elder, Lin Yi arrived at a store that sold Cultivation Technique Manuals on Sword Control, with Nie Xiaoling in tow. This place contained the detailed map of the entire Human race.
The name of the store was quite domineering, called the Myriad Laws Tower, suggesting that it sold all possible laws of the world.
Lin Yi walked in slowly with Nie Xiaoling, noticing that the counter was lined with Jade Slips. There were no techniques recorded on paper to be seen, which also highlighted the convenience of information transmission via Jade Slips.
By pressing it against one’s forehead, all the knowledge within a Jade Slip could enter one’s mind, both convenient and fast, whereas paper techniques required manual reading.
On the counter, the Jade Slips were labeled with the names of various Techniques, and Lin Yi even spotted a Jade Slip for the Creation Method, tucked away in the corner.
The reason Lin Yi had come to this Technique shop was to see if the Creation Method was available because, in the Lower Realm, he had only found the initial-stage Huashen technique of the Creation Method.
As for a complete Cultivation Technique of the Huashen realm, he hadn’t found it neither in the Heng Yuan World nor in the Xuan Tian Realm.
Although his cultivation levels rose mainly through exploiting loopholes, and the time he spent cultivating himself was incredibly short, all of his cultivation levels were built upon the foundation of the Creation Method.
Without the support of a Cultivation Method, it’s possible that exploiting loopholes wouldn’t have increased his cultivation levels at all, not to mention creating and evolving the Tenth Layer Realm.
His creations and evolutions were based on the Tenth Layer Realm’s Creation Method, which he comprehended. If he couldn’t obtain it, evolving this realm Creation Method by himself would likely be extremely difficult.
Now that the Creation Method was on sale in the Spirit Profound Realm, things were much more relaxed.
Of course, the number of Cultivators who would buy the Creation Method should be very few because the Creation Method was too mediocre. Given a choice, no Cultivator would continue practicing Creation Method after reaching the Foundation Establishment.
The techniques sold in the shop might just be bait; as soon as a high-realm Cultivator made a purchase, they would certainly be monitored by that organization.
However, since the shops sold it, there were many means to make a purchase.
Lin Yi felt that the Creation Method must have an end and it shouldn’t just be a matter of following the Creation Technique others had comprehended. Everyone’s ‘creation’ was different, just like his own experience when Making Golden Cores; he became different from ordinary Creation Cultivators.
Upon reaching Nascent Soul, he even had three Nascent Souls, and as he entered higher and deeper realms, the changes in ‘creation’ would become more significant. Sooner or later, he would need to create and evolve his own Creation Method.
The changes in the Creation Method at the Refining Void Realm were not significant; it was just the fusion of three Nascent Souls creating one Primordial Spirit. Perhaps in the Refining Void, there would be new ‘creation’ to uncover.
He didn’t spend too much attention to the Creation Method and when a shop assistant approached asking, Nie Xiaoling quickly spoke up, “This senior is looking for a detailed map of the Human race.”
The Nascent Soul shopkeeper heard this and, glancing at Lin Yi’s enchanting appearance, showed a hint of surprise on his face. He stepped out from behind the counter and bowed fist-in-hand, “I heard that today a senior ascender shattered the Fox Demon Leader’s Dao Heart with words alone, causing them to retreat with their Monster Beasts. It is rumored that this senior wore red robes, are you perhaps that ascender senior?”
Under normal circumstances, most Cultivators of Qinglian Spirit City would already know the geography of the Human race, only those who had just ascended would be unfamiliar with it.
“Indeed it was me, a mere twist of fate,” Lin Yi replied indifferently, not denying it.
Nie Xiaoling’s eyes immediately lit up, and she excitedly said, “I, I also heard about the rumor, I can’t believe that the senior who drove the Monster Beasts away is right beside me.”
“The senior’s coincidence has allowed Qinglian Spirit City to be at peace for twenty years, there won’t be any more worries about Monster Beast attacks from now on,” the Nascent Soul shopkeeper said happily.
Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively, “Whether the Demon Tribe will keep their promise is still unknown. Don’t rush to be happy. Give me my map first.”
“Yes, yes, I will get the map for the senior right away,” The Nascent Soul shopkeeper personally brought several maps, telling Lin Yi, “Senior, this is the detailed map of the Human Clan of the Spirit Profound Realm, it includes every city and Secret Realm danger zones. These two are the Demon Tribe and Demon race maps; however, they are not detailed, only some important locations are recorded.”
Lin Yi nodded lightly, “How many Spirit Stones?”
“The senior is the savior of Qinglian Spirit City, please just take them,” the Nascent Soul shopkeeper shook his head.
Lin Yi looked at him impassively and said, “Savior, the real saviors of Qinglian Spirit City are those Guards who have always defended the city, not me. Besides, Qinglian Spirit City is far from being occupied, so where does ‘saving’ come into play? Tell me, how many Spirit Stones?”
The Nascent Soul shopkeeper showed a hint of embarrassment. It was no wonder that the senior had shattered the Fox Demon Leader’s Dao Heart with words; with just a few sentences, he had left him speechless, “The map of the Human race is Ten Spirit Stones, while the Demon Tribe and Demon race maps are each Thirty Spirit Stones.”
“Senior, this price is reasonable,” Nie Xiaoling whispered from the side.
Lin Yi nodded and took out a Medium Grade Spirit Stone from his Storage Ring. He received the change of thirty Spirit Stones back, then bought several spells that could be cultivated in the Deification Realm, along with some famous Cultivation Techniques, before leaving the store.
