146: Chapter 147: Looting
However, he only dared to grumble internally, maintaining a respectful expression as he explained.
“Your Highness, this person must have used an escape technique that burns Lifespan.
You do not need to act personally; he will surely die once the secret technique ends.
Moreover, that person is a Demonic Path Cultivator, with bizarre methods and ruthless actions.
This old servant is worried he might harm Your Highness!”
“Useless! Have you cultivated your cultivation to the dogs?!”
Although Ji Wuli was scolding, he gradually regained a trace of calm at this moment.
He knew that Cao Chungang’s words were not false.
This person carried too much slaughter and was not someone to be trifled with.
If Cao Chungang wasn’t confident in taking him down, then it was better not to be too aggressive.
He hadn’t enjoyed his good life enough and didn’t want to suffer an unexpected setback.
However, despite saying so, he was still extremely furious in his heart.
In the Imperial City, who wouldn’t respectfully bow to him upon seeing him!
Now, someone dared to curse him!
This made it difficult for him to accept for a while.
“Investigate! Find out this person’s background for me.
If he’s dead, then so be it, but if he’s still alive, find him.
I want him dead!!”
Ji Wuli’s face was grim as he dropped these words, then turned and flew back onto the Spirit Ship.
Immediately, he summoned a group of maids into his courtyard.
He was very angry now!
If he didn’t vent it, he worried he might suffer Qi Deviation!
...Bang!
A small hill shattered with a roar.
A figure, covered in dust, emerged from within.
“Cough, cough!”
Lu Ming coughed twice, looking somewhat helplessly at his masterpiece before him.
The extreme speed of Startling Swan, the air pressure generated, made his Physical Body ache.
At that moment, Lu Ming even felt as if his Physical Body was about to be torn apart.
It was incredibly exhilarating!
Moreover, it was his first time using it, and he didn’t control the direction well, which led to him crashing into the mountain.
He cast a cleansing spell, and the dust on his robes vanished, making them look brand new again.
“Ji Family, well played!”
Lu Ming sneered.
Sure enough, the main body still needed to stay hidden.
Otherwise, encountering such a second-generation rich kid would make one timid.
If his Clone had faced this person, it would have fought without a second thought, at worst, it would just be death!
He didn’t dwell on it anymore.
Everyone can be wise after the event.
Now, Lu Ming only wanted to finish his current tasks quickly and rush back to Immortal City to deal with this person!
Startling Swan’s dash had taken him too far, and Lu Ming had to go in circles to return to the Zheng Family.
Without rushing to send a message to Zheng Qingping, Lu Ming first went to the depths of the back mountain.
Here, a large number of corpses were piled up, some from Loose Cultivators and some from Zheng Family members.
However, the two groups were distinctly separated and not mixed together.
“Heh, garbage classification!”
No... wouldn’t that make him a garbage collector?
But if you insisted on saying so, it wasn’t wrong.
Blood Qi, resentment Qi, and Evil Qi were the impurities of the Cultivation world.
He relied on these to Cultivate, so calling him a scavenger was not an exaggeration.
He didn’t know how Zheng Qingping had convinced his Family members not to bury their dead.
But this was good; it made things convenient for him.
Lu Ming spent some time ‘cleaning up’ this place.
Letting out a satisfied burp, Lu Ming leisurely walked towards the Zheng Family’s treasury.
No one guarded it, because apart from a few individuals, no one knew the location of the Zheng Family’s treasury.
Lu Ming arrived in front of a mountain wall, and according to Zheng Tianming’s memories, he cast a series of complex spell seals.
Water ripples began to appear on the surface of the cave wall.
After a flash of spiritual light, the mountain wall opened with a roar, revealing a long, narrow passage inside.
Lu Ming stepped inside.
Upon entering, the interior suddenly opened up.
Lu Ming’s gaze swept across the treasury, a look of joy on his face.
Various treasures were neatly arranged here, categorized.
There were Medicinal Pills, Spirit Stones, Spiritual Plants, and spiritual ores.
There were even Legacies of the hundred arts of Cultivation.
Spirit planting, alchemy, Talismans, Formations.
Unfortunately, they were all first-tier, and for him now, they were not very useful.
However, learning more wouldn't hurt; having many skills is never a burden.
When he had free time, he could still observe them.
Moreover, as his Cultivation grew higher, his vision also expanded, making it easy to learn with such a broad perspective.
He packed all these Legacies to take with him, then began to examine the Medicinal Pills.
There were very few Medicinal Pills that could be used by Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, but there were a few bottles, which was a good harvest.
Somewhat unexpectedly, Lu Ming found a bottle of ‘Heavenly Heart Pill’ among the Medicinal Pills.
He pulled out the stopper and found that there were still three pills inside.
“Heh, saves me the trouble of refining them!”
He hadn’t forgotten that he still owed Yang Li two ‘Heavenly Heart Pill’.
However, his alchemy skills hadn’t reached the level to refine them, so it had been put aside.
Since the Heart Demon Dao oath had already been transferred, Lu Ming wasn’t in a hurry.
But since he had acquired them, it was better to clear the Karma.
As for the remaining pill, he would give it to Zhou Yang.
After storing these bottles and jars, Lu Ming directly bypassed the Spiritual Plants and spiritual ores and looked at the Spirit Stones.
It must be said that a Foundation Establishment Family’s foundation was indeed abundant.
Spirit Stones the size of thumbs were piled up into small mountains; a rough scan with his Divine Sense revealed tens of thousands.
However, for him now, Spirit Stones didn’t really have much use.
Unless he encountered something he truly desired, Lu Ming truly had nowhere to spend them.
But who would ever complain about having too much money?
Take them away, take them all away!
Lu Ming was like a bandit entering a village; he didn’t care if they were valuable or not, he collected everything he saw.
He used several Storage Pouches to pack all the resources in the treasury.
Finally, he came to the part Lu Ming was looking forward to.
Cultivation Technique secret techniques!
A separate stone room had been opened in the treasury, storing the Cultivation Techniques collected by the Zheng Family over the years.
Lu Ming walked in with anticipation.
He had quite a few secret techniques he could use now, but not many caught his eye.
High-cost, high-reward Cultivation Technique secret techniques were his target.
They could be used for self-Cultivation or for killing enemies.
However, to Lu Ming’s disappointment, there were no Cultivation Technique secret techniques that met his ideal.
“It seems that having the Zheng Family collect Cultivation Technique secret techniques for me needs to be put on the agenda.”
His current secret techniques were somewhat falling behind his pace.
Especially the burst-type secret techniques.
The “Five Viscera Refinement Demon True Art” and “Blood Burning Secret Technique” were both in the first-tier category.
For him now, they were a bit outdated.
However, a few books were quite interesting.
One of them was called “Tail Severing Calamity Substitution Method.”
When encountering a fatal attack, this method could be used to discard a part of the limb, transforming it into a substitute Puppet.
However, the cost was very high; first, it required a large consumption of vital blood.
Secondly, the incomplete limb would have a significant impact on one’s future Dao path.
Lu Ming felt that he wouldn’t need this.
If he truly encountered a life-or-death crisis, it would likely be a dead end.
Severing the tail to survive would only prolong the time of death.
Moreover, Startling Swan was much more effective than this!
However, not needing it didn’t mean it was useless.
He had one more method for tormenting people!
And the other one was even less suitable for him, named “Minor Yin Secret Record.”
It was a female Cultivator Cultivation Technique.
Of course, without discrimination, male Cultivators could also practice it.
However, as long as you could endure the consequences of excessive yang, then you could practice it as you pleased.
