Within Overturning Sea City, I Am an Origin Core True Person! Fishing Enforcement! (Mass Release Complete)
Compared to his cautiousness when he first Overturning Sea City, Jiang Shu's strength has increased many times over.
He could even kill a regular Origin Core Realm Master directly.
Therefore, from the very beginning, he had no intention of showing himself as a cultivator at the Furnace Fire Realm.
Instead, he first killed an Inner Core Realm Demon Beast in the Endless Sea Domain and successfully disguised himself as a Origin Core Realm Master.
People with different strengths will naturally receive different treatment when they enter Overturning Sea City.
Just like now, although he is only cultivating in seclusion in his cave abode, his reputation has spread far and wide. Many forces know that a Rogue Cultivator at the Essence Core Realm, known as the Hun Yuan True Person, has appeared in the Endless Sea Domain.
Everyone is trying to win him over.
Invitations poured in, including a ticket to the Wan Hai Treasure Pavilion Auction.
The Essence Core Realm seems to be only one realm higher than the Furnace Fire Realm.
But their social standing is worlds apart.
Just from the title, you can tell that no matter how much a cultivator in the Furnace Fire Realm cultivates, he is still just an ordinary cultivator who has just entered the Dao through martial arts.
Even the weakest Essence Core Realm Essence Core Realm, who has condensed ten divine abilities, is still Origin Core True Person.
In a typical city, he would undoubtedly be a high and mighty figure, someone even the city lord would have to curry favor with.
At the Essence Core Realm, one's supernatural powers are unified, and one can enjoy a lifespan of a thousand years!
Not to mention, Jiang Shu returned this time after slaying Inner Core Realm Demon Beast, which proves that he is no ordinary early-stage Essence Core Realm cultivator.
"Here you go."
He casually removed the Inner Core and tossed it to the Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile.
This time, the Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile, who accompanied me to Xuanxing, has performed reasonably well. Despite knowing full well the wondrous power of that world, it has remained completely oblivious, as if it were blind, deaf, and mute, seeing nothing, hearing nothing, and asking nothing.
"Owner..."
Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile gave Jiang Shu a deep look, his eyes filled with a fear he had never shown before when facing Profound Water True Person.
In that vast ocean, completely different from the Endless Sea Domain, it witnessed Jiang Shu unleashing his full power, single-handedly fighting four powerful figures across realms. It originally thought this was Jiang Shu's peak, and that it was impossible for him to improve so quickly in just a few years.
But just a few days ago, it watched as Jiang Shu's almost unparalleled spiritual power swept up and completely killed an Inner Core Realm Demon Beast in an instant.
There was absolutely no resistance.
Jiang Shu... has become even stronger!
And this has only been a short time.
"We have signed a contract, and our interests are intertwined. I will help you Shape Shifting, and I hope you will not disappoint me."
Jiang Shu didn't understand the art of beast taming, but he knew that the method of using both a big stick and a sweet treat would never go out of style.
Faced with overwhelming power, as long as sufficient benefits are offered, the Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile will gradually and willingly follow him.
With the protection of the Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile, he was able to confidently leave his body and go to the Star Ruins Realm.
"Thank you, Master."
With its inner Inner Core in its mouth, the Cloud Winged Flying Crocodile devoured and cultivated in a corner.
In Jiang Shu's hand, True Fire burned, and all the invitations turned to ashes.
Demonstrating his Essence Core Realm cultivation level was ostensibly to allow him to enjoy treatment in Overturning Sea City that Furnace Fire Realm cultivators couldn't receive, but more importantly, he wanted to set a trap for law enforcement.
Within a sect, there may be sect rules that bind members, so there won't be much competition for fortuitous opportunity among fellow disciples.
But it's a different story outside the sect. Origin Core Realm Master with the background of a major sect and Rogue Cultivator are two different kinds of beings.
If Rogue Cultivator like him is not recruited by a major power for a long time, he may be intercepted and killed in the Endless Sea Domain.
The path of cultivation has always been one where the strong rule and the weak are preyed upon!
There is no such thing as a peaceful and tranquil life.
Sure enough, after Jiang Shu had wandered around Overturning Sea City a few times, some Origin Core Realm Master began inviting Jiang Shu to a trading gathering that only cultivators of the same realm could participate in.
"I wonder which Hun Yuan True Person was cultivating in seclusion with before?"
Multitreasures True Person asked Jiang Shu with a smile.
Throughout the entire Overturning Sea City, Multitreasures True Person was a figure of some renown. He had condensed fifteen divine abilities into a pill, and although his combat strength was average, he possessed an extremely strong ability to forge magical Treasure Artifact.
Even Wan Hai Treasure Pavilion had cooperated with him and acquired Earth Rank Treasure Artifact crafted by Multitreasures True Person.
"Oh, no, I was a retainer of a dynasty before. In search of fortuitous opportunity, I left the dynasty and not only reached the Furnace Fire Realm by fortuitous opportunity, but also obtained a part of the inheritance of Profound Water True Person."
Jiang Shu, half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Sincerest Path can lead to foresight.
The moment Multitreasures True Person appeared, despite his excellent disguise, he sensed a trace of malice within him.
The purpose of deliberately throwing out Profound Water True Person was to attract the attention of Multitreasures True Person.
In Overturning Sea City, it's completely impossible to truly portray oneself as a Rogue Cultivator with nothing.
Every person has an origin, let alone Origin Core Realm Master.
The more one conceals oneself, the more cautious the other party will become. They fear that some disciple of a major sect may be hiding their identity to gain experience here.
"Oh? Profound Water True Person, is that the Profound Water True Person who has the Three-Legged Profound Water Star Refining Cauldron? Fellow Daoist, you are truly lucky."
Multitreasures True Person offered his congratulations with a sigh, his eyes slightly narrowed as if judging the truthfulness of the words.
"It was good luck, but I only inherited a portion of the legacy. At that time, Profound Water True Person divided the legacy into two places. One place was guarded by his mount and contained his various treasures. The other place contained the physical body I obtained, as well as the Mystical Power Great Elixir."
"It took me twenty years to refine a portion of its supernatural powers before I reached my current level."
When Jiang Shu said this, his face was full of regret, but there was an irrepressible smile on his lips.
It's just like an ordinary person who, after suddenly acquiring a lot of wealth, puts on a clumsy act.
"It's all because that Profound Water True Person divided the inheritance into two sets. Otherwise, why would I need any Earth Rank Treasure Artifact? His Three-Legged Profound Water Star Refining Cauldron is much better. It can be used for refining pills, crafting weapons, and even Body Refining. It's such a pity."
"To obtain even one of them would be an immense fortuitous opportunity of luck!"
Multitreasures True Person sighed, his tone full of blessings, as if he had no intention of Three-Legged Profound Water Star Refining Cauldron.
The two chatted for a while and soon arrived at a large courtyard.
It appears ordinary from the outside, but once inside the forbidden area, it is magnificent and far surpasses any earthly Imperial Palace.
Many slender, well-proportioned maids danced gracefully.
Some of the more favored ones even sat beside Origin Core Realm Master, enjoying drinks with them.
These Origin Core Realm Master clearly seemed to have known each other for a long time.
The conversation revolved around the various fortuitous opportunity they had encountered in the past.
"See? This is the trade fair I mentioned before. Everyone here is Rogue Cultivator, and each of us is thinking about reaching a higher realm. What seems like fortuitous opportunity is actually about how to handle fortuitous opportunity."
"Wait a moment, you can also share with the Hun Yuan True Person. Even just a part of the inheritance of the Profound Water True Person would probably be enough to make these guys extremely envious."
Multitreasures True Person said in a low voice.
As the two of them entered, some Origin Core Realm Master turned their gazes toward Jiang Shu.
Upon learning that the person was Hun Yuan True Person who had recently slain Inner Core Realm Demon Beast, they continued drinking and chatting, occasionally revealing what they wanted and what they lacked, thus exchanging resources.
"We Rogue Cultivator can't compare to the disciples of major sects, so we need to support each other even more. For us, the more cultivation fortuitous opportunity each person has, the better, and the more resources we share, the better. Hun Yuan True Person, you can also exchange resources with one or two friends you meet here after you get to know each other. But for now, we don't need to, since we are just an unformed and loose Xiao Tuan."
"No one can guarantee what kind of people will go inside."
These words were transmitted through spiritual power by Multitreasures True Person, as if he were deeply considering Jiang Shu's feelings.
Jiang Shu nodded repeatedly, found a seat, and casually pointed to two of the dancing maids in the middle. He drank wine while groping them, occasionally listening to the conversation of the other True Person.
Time passed.
Soon, some of the True Person who had achieved their goals began to leave.
The hall, which originally housed a dozen or so people, dwindled in number until only seven or eight remained. Jiang Shu then made an excuse to leave.
As the night deepened, only three Essence Core Realm cultivators remained in the entire hall: Multitreasures True Person, Ning Guang True Person, and Wan Jian True Person.
"What do you think of the Hun Yuan True Person you brought today?"
Multitreasures True Person spoke first, his face cold and icy, completely unlike his previous kind and gentle self.
In this world, there is no such thing as someone offering help for no reason.
If Jiang Shu were stronger, their future meetings would be mutually beneficial.
But right now, on the surface, Jiang Shu's strength is still too weak.
Not only is he weak, but he also possesses the inheritance of the Profound Water True Person. Judging from the meaning of his words, it is highly likely that he also knows the location of another inheritance.
That's Earth Rank Treasure Artifact!
Among Treasure Artifact, those like the precious cauldron are extremely valuable because they have various effects such as Body Refining, alchemy, and artifact crafting.
For example, Wan Jian True Person can actually control ten thousand flying swords, but the value of his ten top-ranked Earth Rank flying swords is completely inferior to that of the Three-Legged Profound Water Star Refining Cauldron.
If Multitreasures True Person were to receive this inheritance, his ability to forge weapons would undoubtedly rise to a new level.
"He has some cleverness, but not much."
Ning Guang True Person sneered. Those who orchestrated this scheme would naturally keep a close eye on things. He could clearly sense that after entering the trade fair, Hunyuan Hun Yuan True Person deliberately embraced two women, giving the impression of being lecherous.
In reality, most of my attention was focused on the exchanges between the various True Person at the trade fair.
"He was indeed quite cautious. If I hadn't said that we needed to determine whether he was a disciple of a major sect, he probably wouldn't have said that he had received the inheritance of Profound Water True Person. However, in my opinion, what he said was only half true."
"The inheritance may be real, but whether we receive a part or the whole is hard to say."
Multitreasures True Person added, "After all, if it were just an ordinary early-stage Essence Core Realm cultivator, it would still be quite difficult for him to kill Inner Core Realm Demon Beast with his abilities."
Ning Guang True Person and Wan Jian True Person nodded repeatedly as they listened to the analysis.
The three of them worked together for a century, and acted with extreme caution.
All the stolen goods obtained will be refined and laundered by Multitreasures True Person, which will not only allow him to sell them at a higher price, but also thoroughly establish Multitreasures True Person's reputation in Overturning Sea City.
It's a win-win situation.
"Regardless of whether he has the Three-Legged Profound Water Star Refining Cauldron or not, we must be extra careful. He still possesses at least one of the Profound Water True Person's Mystical Power Great Elixir."
Wan Jian True Person's voice was somewhat hoarse. In the Xiao Tuan, he was only responsible for killing, while the overall planning was basically decided by Multitreasures True Person and Ning Guang True Person.
"Try probing him again, lower his guard, and get some more information out of him."
Ning Guang True Person nodded, deciding to play it safe.
In the following period, Multitreasures True Person seemed to have forgotten about Jiang Shu, and basically did not communicate with Jiang Shu, only sending him the invitation to the start of the trade fair.
"I never expected that you, Ning Guang True Person, would possess such a treasure!"
A trade fair held once a month.
In the third month, Jiang Shu finally made his appearance and obtained a Grade Earth Rank Precious Medicine from Ning Guang True Person in one fell swoop.
If this Precious Medicine is refined into a pill, it will be comparable to the cultivation of Origin Core Realm Master over several months of arduous practice.
All he gave up were a few supernatural cultivation methods from Profound Water True Person.
"See? I told you, you would definitely benefit from the trade fair, right?"
Multitreasures True Person laughed heartily, "The purpose of my holding this trade fair is precisely this. Overturning Sea City is located near the Endless Sea Domain, and sometimes Tide of Beasts come. If we, the Rogue Cultivator, do not unite, share fortuitous opportunity, and exchange our gains..."
"When the crisis strikes, they will definitely be the first to perish."
Jiang Shu nodded in agreement.
But as always, when there were seven or eight people around, he left to say goodbye.
"This time, it's basically confirmed."
The trade fair was still ongoing. But Multitreasures True Person, Ning Guang True Person, and Wan Jian True Person had already begun their spiritual exchange.
"Yes, these are indeed some of the divine abilities of Profound Water True Person. It seems that Hun Yuan True Person has truly had extraordinary fortuitous opportunity and has obtained the inheritance of Profound Water True Person. Moreover, judging from his reaction when he saw the Earth Rank Precious Medicine, it doesn't seem like he was faking it. Profound Water True Person's inheritance should only be enough for him to cultivate up to the Essence Core Realm. If he wants to advance further, given his background, it will be extremely difficult."
"Right now, the Hun Yuan True Person is in dire need of resources. We can use resources to trick him into leaving Overturning Sea City."
Ning Guang True Person narrowed his eyes.
After waiting for so long, the fish is finally about to take the bait.
"Yes, someone with such fortuitous fortuitous opportunity is actually not good at joining a major power; he can only become Rogue Cultivator. After all, the three sets of Xuan Shui Refining Cauldrons are quite famous among Earth Rank Treasure Artifact. Major powers would definitely ask him to offer them up for use by some Origin Core Realm Master Persons who can refine pills and artifacts."
"Unfortunately, he didn't know that Treasure Artifact have always been possessed by the strong."
"If he can escape by not joining the major powers, can he do the same here?"
While greeting the various True Person, Multitreasures True Person's words, transmitted through his mind, were full of sarcasm.
What good is getting fortuitous opportunity?
Duo Duo people receive fortuitous opportunity, only to eventually give fortuitous opportunity.
Insufficient ability and insufficient mentality.
Everything is just a favor done for someone else!
"The current Hun Yuan True Person probably doesn't trust us enough, but things might be different when I throw out another Earth Rank Precious Medicine next time. If he wants to improve his strength, he will have to rely on us."
"Dependence leads to trust."
"Ordinary people are most easily blinded by money."
"We cultivators are no exception."
