Mortal-Made: Cheap and Durable!

"Big Sister really had thought everything through."

Staring at the Crystal Gourd inside the rosewood box, Fang Yu could not help but sigh in admiration.

He then picked up the Crystal Gourd, intending to fill it with Nine Yang Sacred Water.

However, Fang Yu truly could not say whether the Nine Yang Sacred Water was more valuable, or whether the Green Liquid was more valuable in the Mortal World.

After all, they each had their own uses. Nine Yang Sacred Water could enlighten spirit herbs and treasures, and it could dispel all negative substances such as filth, demonic qi, and monster qi.

The Green Liquid, meanwhile, could accelerate the maturation of spirit herbs. It contained the immortal spirit qi of the Mortal Immortal Realm, as well as the power of time.

Thinking it over carefully, the Green Liquid seemed more valuable, especially because it contained the power of time. It would be of great benefit to cultivating the fourth level of the Longevity Secret Realm, the Space-Time Light Realm, and might even help one comprehend the laws of time.

The fourth level of the Longevity Secret Realm! That was still far too distant for him. He should first break through to the Divine Ability Secret Realm and cultivate divine abilities.

Over the next few days, Fang Yu did not go to the Mortal World. Instead, he remained in his room collecting Nine Yang Sacred Water and storing it in the Crystal Gourd. Once he felt he had gathered enough, he took the Heaven-Palm Bottle and entered the Mortal World again.

Lan Prefecture was the eighth-largest of Yue Kingdom's thirteen prefectures by area, yet in terms of prosperity, it ranked second only to Xin Prefecture.

Located in the southern part of Yue Kingdom, it had fertile land, countless waterways, lakes, and canals within its jurisdiction, and favorable weather year-round. It was exceptionally suited for growing grain and rice, making it one of the nation's foremost grain-producing regions.

Auspicious Origin City, located in the center of Lan Prefecture, was not the prefectural capital, but it was unquestionably Lan Prefecture's largest city.

The Xianglu Grand Canal, which ran from north to south through Yue Kingdom, passed straight through the city center. Together with several other major land and water routes converging here, transportation was extremely developed. It could be called a hub of water transport and a vital commercial thoroughfare.

Every year, countless merchants and travelers passed through this place, greatly driving local trade and commerce. Thus, it was hardly strange that Auspicious Origin City had become the largest city in the prefecture.

Auspicious Origin City

On the second floor of the Xiang Family Restaurant, beside a window, a handsome young man sat with his gaze fixed on the Mo Residence across the street.

The young man was naturally Fang Yu. He had not expected that this time, he would enter the Mortal World in Auspicious Origin City rather than at the Seven Mysteries Sect. It seemed to be random.

But it made no difference to him whatsoever.

At that moment, beneath the plaque bearing the words "Mo Residence," eight burly men in tight-fitting uniforms stood divided on either side. Each held his head high and stared straight ahead, their disciplined and capable appearance making them seem far from ordinary at a glance.

But to Fang Yu, they were beneath notice—people he could kill with a single slap.

In truth, he was not particularly interested in the Mo Residence right now. He was only thinking about how to become an immortal cultivator in the Mortal World.

After all, although Fang Qingxue had already given him a Foundation Establishment Pill, one could never have too many resources. Spirit stones in particular would absolutely be of great help to cultivation.

The The Great Primordial World had similar Magic Crystal Jade. Although the spiritual qi in spirit stones could not compare to the mana within Magic Crystal Jade, which those in the Divine Ability Secret Realm could directly absorb, refine, and transform into mana, spirit stones should still be quite useful.

More importantly, Fang Yu had taken a fancy to something else from the Mortal World: storage bags.

That was right, storage bags.

One had to know that even among the true disciples of the ten great immortal sects in the The Great Primordial World, only one-tenth possessed a storage treasure like a Void Hundred-Treasure Bag.

Those who did not have one could only rely on a Dao artifact's own internal space.

Yet among true disciples in the Divine Ability Secret Realm, those who possessed Dao artifacts were not one in ten, but closer to one in a hundred.

For example, within the Eclosion Sect, only Hua Tiandu and Fang Qingxue were publicly known to possess Dao artifacts.

The other true disciples merely possessed treasure artifacts of varying grades.

In the Mortal World, however, even ordinary independent cultivators had storage bags. They might not compare to Void Hundred-Treasure Bags, but they were plentiful, cheap, and durable. One could have as many as one wanted.

If he could acquire a large pile of storage bags, he could absolutely do business within the Eclosion Sect.

And if he improved them slightly so that outer and inner disciples in the Physical Body Realm could use them as well—

Hehe, he would make a fortune. The impact might not be any less than Fang Han's Nascent Soul Pills.

Nor did he need to worry about a lack of buyers. Even if every immortal cultivator in the Human Realm were dragged over to refine storage bags, there probably still would not be enough for every cultivator in the The Great Primordial World to have one. The disparity was simply that enormous.

Therefore, he had to enter an immortal cultivation sect if he wanted to obtain a method for refining storage bags.

If he remained an independent cultivator, he would likely find it difficult to obtain such a method.

But becoming an immortal cultivator was no easy matter. One needed spirit roots.

He had no idea whether he possessed them.

If he wanted to know whether he had spirit roots, he could only have another immortal cultivator examine him.

If he did not have them, obtaining them would likely be troublesome. He did not know whether he could currently contend against immortal cultivators of the Mortal World.

After all, immortal cultivators in the Mortal World could generally use spells by the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refinement.

In the Eternal World, one had to reach the Divine Ability Secret Realm and transform spiritual power into mana.

Of course, talismans, magic artifacts, spirit artifacts, treasure artifacts, and Dao artifacts could all be used in the Physical Body Realm as well, though their effects and power would be greatly reduced.

He had come to the Xiang Family Restaurant not because of the Mo Residence, but because he remembered that a blue-robed immortal cultivator who had badly frightened Han Li would appear here. He seemed to be one of the Friends of Mount Meng later on.

If luck was on his side, perhaps he could have the man examine him. As for immortal cultivation techniques, those were indeed quite troublesome.

Perhaps he could only first find a way to subdue the forces of a martial arts gang and have them help him gather information.

Of course, he could also return to the Seven Mysteries Sect and obtain them from Golden Light Venerable, Han Li, or Mo Juren.

These were all possible methods. It was not as though he had no options at all.

Perhaps it was luck, or perhaps it was truly a case of speaking of Cao Cao and Cao Cao appearing.

Just as Fang Yu was preparing to leave, a blue-robed man he had long been waiting for appeared. His aura was restrained and steady, while sharp light flickered in his eyes. He was clearly no ordinary mortal.

"What incredible luck!"

This blue-robed young man had well-defined features, thick brows, large eyes, and a distinctly heroic air between his brows.

After sitting down, he swept his gaze around the room and happened to meet Fang Yu's eyes.

In an instant, an inexplicable suction force emerged from his eyes, as though it intended to pull Fang Yu's soul away.

However, Fang Yu merely circulated the qi and blood within his body slightly before regaining clarity.

"Interesting. You actually managed to break free on your own."

The blue-robed man was briefly surprised. He sized Fang Yu up and down, then shook his head, seemingly disappointed.

Seeing this, Fang Yu's gaze sharpened, but he did not approach him on his own initiative.

The blue-robed man had no intention of paying him any further attention. He ordered the waiter to bring up a table full of dishes and began eating heartily, as though he had completely forgotten what had just happened.

Before long, he had eaten every last morsel and rose to leave. Fang Yu also stood at the right moment and followed closely behind.
