The Bai Clan doesn't have a good reputation in Heaven and Earth City, which is related to Bai Yunjiang's father, Bai Qingtian.
It's not that Bai Qingtian is a bandit; quite the opposite, Bai Qingtian's a person bursting with a sense of justice.
The real bandits are the other four families in Heaven and Earth City.
Bai Qingtian looked down on those four families and was unwilling to associate with them, which led to the Bai Clan being isolated in Heaven and Earth City.
However, the Bai Clan happens to be the strongest among the four families. Bai Qingtian is at the Foundation Establishment Stage and also has some connection with the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Even though the other four major families were dissatisfied with the Bai Clan, they dared not provoke them easily.
As a result, the four major families began to smear the Bai Clan in various ways, using online trolls to stir up public opinion and forcefully "transform" the Bai Clan into a den of bandits.
His reputation among outsiders is very bad.
Bai Qingtian didn't care about this. He valued personal strength and didn't care about those trivial matters online. As long as it didn't affect his cultivation, he didn't care how much trouble people caused online.
Ling Yi didn't want to get involved in the messy affairs of the Bai Clan, nor did he need to. His thoughts were similar to Bai Qingtian's: as long as it didn't affect his important business, he didn't care what happened.
Although the Nine Spirits Fishing Village presents an exceptionally great opportunity, that will be a year from now.
There's still plenty of time.
Ling Yi's purpose in making arrangements in advance was not to monopolize this opportunity; he wasn't that greedy.
Even Wang Chen wouldn't dare take everything from the ancient secret realm.
Some people will always eat the meat, and some will only drink the soup!
Otherwise, that would be a path to death.
Moreover, even if Ling Yi wanted to keep it all for himself, it would be impossible. The appearance of the mirage caused such a huge commotion that it couldn't be hidden at all.
Ling Yi's main purpose in doing this was to gain a right to participate.
These so-called families in Heaven and Earth City are all insignificant and insignificant families; they have no chance of encountering such an opportunity as the Ancient Secret Realm.
Without prior planning, a nobody like Bai Yunjiang wouldn't even have the chance to participate.
In the original storyline, Bai Yunjiang's story ended in chapter 49, before the mirage plot even appeared!
Xiao Longtao can't create much emotional value, then naturally their role should be terminated early.
Jiubin Road is actually a general merchandise market.
It's roughly equivalent to the cultivation markets in cultivation novels.
Most of the items traded here are for cultivators, but they are not entirely isolated from ordinary people.
Some of these items are specifically sold to ordinary people.
For example, there are talismans specifically made for ordinary people, such as talismans for exorcising ghosts, talismans for suppressing evil spirits, and talismans for defense.
For example, Defense Array can be used as security doors, temperature-regulating Formation as air conditioners, and Illusion Formation as a full-fledged movie theater. In short, there's nothing these formation Mage can't do, only things you can't imagine.
The same Formation applies to formations, alchemy, and weapon crafting.
Human ingenuity is on full display here.
In this world, technology and cultivation of immortality are combined quite well.
Take, for example, the SUV that Uncle Jiang drives. It looks similar to an ordinary SUV, but its power system is driven by Formation.
Genuine green cesium, naturally pollution-free.
After running two thousand kilometers, you only need to stop and let the Formation automatically replenish your Spiritual Qi for half an hour.
If you brought this thing into the real world... it wouldn't work either.
Putting aside the fact that the real world is already Zombie Apocalypse, the main point is that there is no Spiritual Qi in the real world!
However, the sale of highly dangerous talismans, Formation, or magical artifacts is strictly prohibited here.
Moreover, every transaction involving the buying and selling of goods requires special registration.
If someone were to use this to cause trouble, the Demon Suppression Division would be knocking on their door in no time.
The Demon Suppression Division and the Demon Suppression Bureau are different. The Demon Suppression Division is equivalent to an inspectorate, while the Demon Suppression Bureau is equivalent to the military.
Their functions are different.
People fear the Demon Suppression Division, and demons and monsters fear the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Ling Yi traveled and observed along the way, gaining considerable knowledge and experience.
Although he replaced Bai Yunjiang, he was not Bai Yunjiang, and he did not have Bai Yunjiang's memories.
My understanding of Bai Yunjiang comes entirely from the storyline.
These things might be ordinary to Bai Yunjiang, but for Ling Yi, they were like Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.
However, Ling Yi didn't forget his main task: to find a stall selling Demonic Beast meat.
Ling Yi quickly locked onto his target.
The stall owner was a woman wearing a mask and a hat, but with long hair and an extremely tall figure.
This woman is named Lin Ran. She is a supporting female character who appears later in the story, and her role is second only to the female lead, Yuan Mei.
This is the first and only appearance of Lin Ran in the first 150 chapters.
He won't reappear until after chapter 150.
It was Lin Ran's appearance that completely revealed the Karma entanglement between Zhao Peng and Yuan Mei, and also pushed Zhao Peng and Wang Chen to the brink of life and death.
It's a fight to the death.
The relationships between Lin Ran, Yuan Mei, Zhao Peng, Wang Chen are quite complicated!
When Ling Yi watched this part of the story before, he didn't say a word.
Goodness, this author has laid foreshadowing for over 150 chapters! That's incredibly impressive.
There were a total of ten low-level Demonic Beast in front of Lin Ran's stall.
These ten Demonic Beast were all of the same species, and they looked somewhat like rats magnified ten times.
However, its neck is a bit longer than a rat's, making it look somewhat disproportionate.
And this thing's scientific name is the Long-Necked Rat, which is quite fitting.
This kind of Demonic Beast is actually worthless. It's inedible, its flesh is sour and astringent, and it has no Spiritual Qi or nutritional value.
The only thing of value is their claws.
However, lower-grade Long-Necked Rat don't have very sharp claws, making them even less valuable.
Therefore, these ten Long-Necked Rat were basically ignored.
Lin Ran's purpose was not to sell the long- Long-Necked Rat Long-Necked Rat, but to obtain the secret technique contained within it.
Each of the ten Long-Necked Rat contains it, meaning that Ling Yi can obtain this secret technique by buying any one of them.
This secret technique was one of the small opportunities that led to the Protagonist Wang Chen in the early stages of his life, but later became a huge problem for him.
To outsiders, this concealment technique is of a very low level. Even if one learns it, it's practically useless, as it can only hide one's cultivation level from those no more than two minor realms above oneself.
Only the person Lin Ran is looking for can recognize this secret technique and complete it.
Wang Chen wasn't the person Lin Ran was looking for, but Wang Chen had a special ability: by manipulating Yuan Mei Yuan Mei, he made her fill in the blanks in her mind, successfully completing the concealment technique.
This very fact sowed the seeds of future trouble for Wang Chen.
Ling Yi stood in front of Lin Ran's stall, stroking his chin as he pondered something: should he give Lin Ran a spoiler?
Spoilers, is that inappropriate?
By the way, if I were to give away spoilers, would I be able to get to the Origin Points?
Why don't you give it a try?
Spoilers ahead, but not all. Let's see what we've learned first, and then we'll talk about the rest.
As for the consequences of spoilers, Lin Ran is currently only at the First Layer of Qi Refining, and his aptitude is only average. Even if he has Divine Ability -level cultivation technique, when he reappears six years later, he will only be at the Golden Core Stage.
Ling Yi believed that by six years later, his cultivation level would have far surpassed the Golden Core Stage, or... he would have already left the world of the novel and returned to reality.
"I'll take these ten Long-Necked Rat. How much?" Ling Yi asked Lin Ran.
Lin Ran shook her head and said in a light, melodious voice, "Sorry, these ten Long-Necked Rat have already been reserved."
"Sell me ten Long-Necked Rat, and I can tell you a secret, a secret about the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerable."
Upon hearing the words "Reincarnation Heavenly Venerable," Lin Ran's aura instantly changed. Her eyes were fixed on Ling Yi, filled with a palpable killing intent.
Ling Yi didn't take it seriously; he had already considered the consequences after deciding to spoil the plot.
"Oh, and while you're at it, give me a storage ring too."
"Just a reminder, you're only at the First Layer of Qi Refining. No matter how many tricks you have, you can't use them. The world has changed, and you're not the only one who woke up early."
"Besides, we are not enemies."
"Who else? Who are you?" Lin Ran asked in a deep voice.
Ling Yi then extended his hand to Lin Ran.
Lin Ran narrowed her eyes slightly, reached around her waist, and a ring appeared in her hand. She then tossed it to Ling Yi without hesitation.
After discovering that there was no Spiritual Sense imprint on the ring, Ling Yi nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, storing the ten Long-Necked Rat on the stall into Ling Yi storage ring.
Tsk tsk, this thing is really useful. As long as you have Spiritual Sense, you can control it freely.
If only this could be brought into the real world! Speaking of which, cultivation levels can't be taken out of the novel's world, but there's no rule saying this item can't be taken out, right?
Although Ling Yi knew he was being a bit delusional, what if it worked?
Seeing Ling Yi fiddling with his storage ring, Lin Ran couldn't help but say, "Speak!"
" The Reincarnation Heavenly Venerable also woke up ahead of schedule and had already regained his memories."
After a pause, Ling Yi added, "For the sake of the storage ring, I'll give you another piece of information: the person you're looking for is in Heaven and Earth City."
After saying that, Ling Yi turned and left.
Lin Ran watched Ling Yi Ling Yi's departing the Back until he disappeared from sight before turning her gaze away.
Around 3 p. m., Ling Yi returned to his place.
That is, the house that Uncle Jiang bought for him yesterday.
It didn't seem to be a villa, but rather the top floor of an apartment building, which was Ling Yi's specific request.
Although Bai Yunjiang had a lot of pocket money, buying a villa was still a bit of a struggle.
I had a very fruitful day.
Not only did he gamble away a cultivation technique and a secret art from Zhao Peng, but he also obtained a storage ring and the concealment technique from Lin Ran.
However, that wasn't the biggest takeaway.
With a thought, Ling Yi opened his system interface.
