Chapter 90: Chapter 90 Dharma Body Chapter 90: Chapter 90 Dharma Body After tucking away the Chi Xiao Technique, Zheng Fa turned to Han Qi and asked, “Senior Brother, how much would it cost to choose another Cultivation Technique?” The Jiushan Ancestor had told him that he also needed to master a Pure Yang Body Refining Skill to cultivate the Green Sun Dao Body. “That’s hard to say,” Han Qi furrowed his brow and replied: “What kind of Cultivation Technique do you need, Junior Brother?” “A Pure Yang Body Refining Skill that I can practice before reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.” “There are quite a few choices for that. Most Body Refinement spells are of the Pure Yang type,” Han Qi nodded and said, “It would cost several dozen Spirit Stones, I guess.” “...That expensive?” This price exceeded Zheng Fa’s estimation; he had thought the price for a Cultivation Technique manual would be low. “That’s actually on the low end! A few hundred years ago, you wouldn’t be able to buy these Cultivation Techniques without spending at least a hundred Spirit Stones!” “What about the one from Zhang...?” “Master Zhang’s Discussion on Talismans? That was Zhang’s intent.” “Ah?” “The texts of the Cultivation Hundred Skills are much cheaper than the Cultivation Technique manuals. One costs Spirit Stones when learned, while the other can earn you Spirit Stones after learning. The difference is huge,” Han Qi explained: “Moreover, Zhang has set the price of Master Zhang’s Discussion on Talismans at only eight taels of Gold.” “What about you guys?” Zheng Fa recalled their original price of ten taels of Gold. “That’s why I am here.” “...” Zheng Fa could somewhat understand why the price of Cultivation Technique texts had dropped drastically — it’s not that there was a lack of techniques, but a scarcity of spiritual materials. It was clear that the Immortal Sect had strict control over Spiritual Energy, spiritual materials, and Spirit Stones, while they were relatively lenient towards Cultivation Techniques — this little building was evidently not highly valued. But he didn’t have several dozen Spirit Stones either! If he didn’t sell his talisman papers and Spirit Ink, he currently only possessed eleven Spirit Stones and thirty taels of Gold. “Is there anything cheaper?” “There are, even cheaper than one Spirit Stone,” Han Qi responded straightforwardly. “Then I...” “I haven’t finished. These Body Refinement techniques are either incomplete or impossible to cultivate.” Han Qi pulled Zheng Fa towards a neglected shelf in a secluded corner. The books on the shelf were all in disarray, with no one bothering to tidy them up. “This one, ‘Earth Fire Refining Golden Body’, is most suitable for someone like you who practices Fire Element Cultivation Techniques, and successfully mastering it could even help you break through bottlenecks—but it requires an earth fire vein, which our Jiushan Sect used to have but has now collapsed.” “This one, ‘Bodhi Dao Body’, can increase wisdom—but it requires Bodhi Fruit, which is said to be extinct throughout the cultivation world.” “...” Zheng Fa was silent for a moment; as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. But these weren’t just expiring goods, they were already expired products. Seeing his somewhat disheartened face, Han Qi jokingly picked up a book, “Actually, I would most recommend this one, ‘Five Thunders Dharma Body’. It’s the most suitable Body Refinement Cultivation Technique for disciples of our Jiushan Sect.” “Why?” “Our Jiushan Sect is most skilled in talismanic magic, and among all talismans, Thunder Talismans are the most powerful—’Five Thunders Dharma Body’ was created by a great predecessor of our sect. It is said that mastering this technique not only makes your Dharma Body difficult to harm but more importantly, it significantly enhances the power of your Thunder Talismans when used.” Han Qi seemed genuinely admiring when he talked about this Cultivation Technique, adding a few more words, “With this Cultivation Technique, Jiushan Sect disciples used to draw Five Thunders Talismans by hand and were considered unparalleled in combat against disciples of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, even earning the reputation as the number one for Thunder Talismans in the Xuanwei realm—that was the period when our Jiushan Sect was at its strongest.” His expression carried a hint of longing as he said this. “...Is it impossible to cultivate?” “It’s easy to end up charred! The final step of this technique requires Heavenly Thunder Body Refining.” Han Qi tossed the book back onto the shelf and said, “Only by relying on the Xuanlei Stone and using its Thunder Power to refine the flesh, gradually acclimating the body to withstand thunder, and preparing for the final Heavenly Thunder Body Refining...” Wait a minute! “Xuanlei Stone?” “A type of Spirit Ore containing the power of thunder, the thunderous might within Xuanlei Stone is not one ten-thousandth of that of real Heavenly Thunder—yet it perfectly suits those in the Qi Refinement Realm for cultivation, allowing the body to strengthen step by step until it can withstand the power of Heavenly Thunder.” “The vein of this ore is also exhausted?” “Not exactly, but it is extremely rare.” Han Qi sighed. “The function of Xuanlei Stone is not limited to cultivating the ‘Five Thunders Dharma Body,’ and in the workshops, it fetches an exorbitantly high price; for disciples in the Qi Refinement phase, it might as well be non-existent.” Zheng Fa nodded. Suddenly, he asked: “How much for this set of Cultivation Techniques?” “Before, this thing was a secret technique of the Sect, you couldn’t even look at it for five hundred Spirit Stones, now though— one Spirit Stone.” “I’ll take it!” “No, Junior Brother, wait... What I said was about before, it was formidable in the past, but now you can’t possibly succeed in cultivating it!” Han Qi grabbed Zheng Fa’s hand as it reached towards the bookshelf. Zheng Fa paused and looked at Han Qi. He could feel that this person hadn’t liked him much before. Has he changed his mind just for ten taels of Gold? Is goodwill that cheaply bought? Nevertheless, Han Qi meant well, so he still explained: “I want to try.” “Does your family just happen to have a Xuanlei Stone mine?” “No!” “Listen to your Senior Brother, don’t try. If you really find Spirit Stones an eyesore, you could give them to me!” Zheng Fa still firmly took the book on the ‘Five Thunders Body.’ His family might not have a mine, but Senior Brother Han hasn’t studied history, unaware of a term called the electricity revolution. ... Han Qi, frowning, returned home. He lived in a single-story house that looked quite old. “Senior Brother!” Two subordinates were waiting for him inside the house, getting somewhat irritable at his appearance. “Did that kid give you trouble?” Han Qi stayed silent, waved his hand towards the two, and sat down, seemingly deep in thought. “Why don’t we just leave in a few days? We’ve saved enough money over these years, I think it’s enough! We can buy three big houses, each of us marry a few wives, and live happily ever after!” said one of his tall and skinny henchmen. “That’s right! We don’t have to take this crap! We’re swindling money, but doesn’t the big share go to Senior Brother Yuan anyway? We offended a new disciple and he treated us like trash, just tossed us aside!” The shorter henchman added. Still silent, Han Qi’s failure to respond made the two anxious. “Senior Brother?” “He hasn’t caused me trouble.” Han Qi slowly said, “He even gave me ten taels of Gold.” “What’s ten taels of Gold worth?” The tall and skinny one snorted. “All those geniuses we’ve encountered before, they easily part with money, but when have they ever given anything back?” Han Qi let out a cold laugh, “We need to cultivate, these geniuses need to cultivate even more... they wouldn’t even share a sip of soup with us!” “Then what’s bothering you, Senior Brother? Didn’t we agree that we’ll leave the Jiushan Sect together in a few days?” “This Zheng Fa, he chose ‘Five Thunders Dharma Body’.” Han Qi suddenly said. “That thing hasn’t been practiced for a thousand years, right? Is he stupid?” The skinny henchman was also startled, but then he said dismissively, “Whatever, whether he’s stupid or not, what does it have to do with us?” Han Qi looked at the Gold in his hand, suddenly stood up, and strode towards the door. “Senior Brother, where are you going?” “I’m going to pay a visit to Zhang.” Behind him, the two disciples looked at each other in confusion, and the skinny one couldn’t help muttering, “Just for ten taels of Gold, really?”
