Why is my Hundred Lifetimes Book different?

into the night.

Ren Qingshan sat cross-legged, lost in thought.

Unconsciously, this has become an essential daily task: summarizing the day's gains and losses and reviewing one's words and actions.

Now, the Ren family has three Qi Refining Techniques!

Ren Jiangtao is in Zhenbeicheng.

My father lives in Shanyang County.

Each should develop independently and accumulate strength.

For the two of them alone, it will take at least another year to fully condense their spiritual energy into liquid and fill their dantian.

Before heading to the Heavenly Ruins, it would be best to first cultivate a Qi Refining Level 2 cultivator. If he could also secure a position in a Celestial Sect, that would be even better.

In this way, even if the family is absent, with Jin Wujiu's name and the sixth-grade array talisman, they can still stand firm.

That's settled!

……

After considering the family, then consider yourself.

Currently, I still have four opponents in the battle of visualization.

Two members of the Zheng family, one from Juque City, and one from overseas.

If it were a regular visualization method, it would be much easier, requiring less thought, but Pangu's great power...

There were a few moments when Ren Qingshan couldn't help but feel anxious, but he always managed to hold back.

Where did Pang Feihong die?

Die from the thought of restlessness arising from stillness!

Driven by a thirst for revenge!

He chose the Pangu Great Strength Visualization Method, but worried about something going wrong when breaking through the incomplete seal, so he went to the Immortal Sect to seek an opportunity.

This line of thinking is actually exactly the same.

That's what I think too.

But he still died.

If I hadn't possessed the Book of a Hundred Deaths, I would surely have met my end.

The path of cultivation is fraught with unpredictable fortune and misfortune, fraught with danger at every turn.

divination?

Suddenly, Ren Qingshan thought of something and someone.

Zhuge Sheng!

As a rogue cultivator, he was able to predict good and bad fortune through divination and spiritual seeds, and thus cultivated all the way to the Foundation Establishment stage. Although he was later betrayed, it can still be considered a miracle.

Could you please obtain a divination seed for my father or cousin?

With that thought in mind, Ren Qingshan immediately entered the Qi Refining Talisman and the Immortal Sect Merchant Guild.

They proceeded with great enthusiasm.

He emerged with a head full of black lines.

The Divination Spirit Seed, ranked ninety-ninth on the Spirit Seed Ranking, is currently priced at a staggering 190,000 spirit stones!

It should be noted that when I chose this spirit seed more than ten years ago, it only cost 80,000 spirit stones.

and……

Even if it were 80,000, it wouldn't be there now.

He did make a fortune off the dead, but he only had a total of 50,000 yuan on him.

We have to find a way to make money.

Whether it's the family or oneself.

After all, the key to breaking through from the fourth level of Qi Refining to the fifth level also lies in wealth.

……

"Qingshan, the gold contract has been consigned and is about to be auctioned, with a starting price of 800,000 spirit stones. We're rich!"

The next morning.

Ren Qingshan received a message from Li Yao via his waist tag.

Ren Qingshan frowned slightly upon glancing at it.

If this kind of thing is discussed through a waist token, and it gets discovered by the Immortal Sect or Jin Wujiu's equal opponents... Brother Yao might already be courting death.

This person is truly not meticulous enough in his work.

"No private matters discussed with this badge!"

Remind him of something.

Li Yao immediately fell silent and stopped sending messages.

Ren Qingshan pondered: This spirit stone... was agreed upon with Jin Wujiu as part of the team's needs. He agreed, and since the team usually consists of three people, it shouldn't be a problem for him to take a portion of it as a member.

I just wanted to inform Jin Wujiu as a sign of respect.

But to handle this matter smoothly, I might need to first make a small contribution, and then bring it up when he's in a good mood.

My father and cousin aren't in a hurry for the Spirit Seed; there's plenty of time.

The divination seed... perhaps... has someone willing to pay the price!

The Immortal Sect will foot the bill for the family's development!

Besides, this gold contract was originally my spoils of war!

It was only to be on the safe side that the medicine was processed by Jin Wujiu once.

Without this experience, it would be extremely difficult to pass the test of killing teammates without permission, and one would never be considered a confidant by him.

just now……

Having the right to manage a slush fund is essentially no different from owning one.

If there is a deficit in the future, then we can simply make up for it!

……

He left a copy of the Jinshi Guiyuan Method with his father and let Qingshan leave home.

First, he sent a message to Jin Wujiu using his waist token, saying that the family affairs had been settled, that the master had bestowed a calligraphy upon the whole family, and that he could return to his post at any time.

Jin Wujiu was probably busy and did not reply in time.

Ren Qingshan was not in a hurry and set off from Shanyang County, slowly flying towards Tiandu City.

Passing through Zhuolu County, I stopped and chatted with Liang Dingqian for a while, drank some tea, and asked him if there was anything I could help with, as I was going back to Tiandu on business.

Liang Dingqian thanked him, but had no further requests.

Ren Qingshan then drifted away.

Then we went to Baiyang County.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he saw Fang Shouyi.

Ren Qingshan disapproved of this person's behavior in the previous battle, but he understood that one should not advise others to be kind without having experienced their suffering.

They had known each other for many years, and now ten years had passed in a flash. Fang Shouyi had a good memory and still remembered Ren Qingshan.

Chatting at home.

"It's been so many years, I never imagined you'd achieved such success in your cultivation."

"admire!"

Fang Shouyi was a man of few words, aloof and unenthusiastic.

The "sword cultivator" persona remains firmly established.

I just saw you a few months ago, and I even witnessed your shameful deeds… Ren Qingshan’s heart stirred, but he smiled and said, “It was just luck. Brother Fang, is the contest of visualization techniques successful? Are you preparing to enter the Heavenly Ruins?”

"It's done."

"He will soon reach the fourth level of Qi Refining."

"I will not enter the Heavenly Ruins for now. My cultivation is not yet stable, and I need another five years."

The current guardian immortal master is a highly sought-after position. A guardian immortal master serves for twenty years, and his term should still have five years left... Ren Qingshan guessed.

The sword cultivators who were once resolute and decisive are now not only adept at scheming and plotting, but also at stockpiling provisions.

"That's more like it. These days, the Guardian Immortal Masters are extremely sought after. Countless young masters from prominent families in Tiandu City are fighting tooth and nail to get one."

"The guardian immortal master of my Shanyang County is a member of the Hua family, while the Liang family is from Zhulu County. Alas... if I hadn't latched onto the Jin family, I wouldn't be in this situation now."

Ren Qingshan said that on purpose.

Fang Shouyi was slightly moved, and his pupils contracted slightly.

The Jin family?

But is it the Jin family of Tiandu City?

Looking at the coarse tea on the table, he considered changing the tea.

But I felt it was too explicit, so I held back for the time being.

We chatted for a while.

Ren Qingshan got to the point.

"Brother Fang, you and I are old friends. As the saying goes, new clothes are worse than old ones, but old friends are worse than new ones. So many years have passed, and I have seen too many people and things. I miss my childhood self and our friendship more and more."

"To be honest, Brother Fang, the reason I've come to you is because I have something to ask you. I wonder if you have any extra Qi Refining Talismans?"

"I am willing to purchase it for 3,500 spirit stones."

Upon hearing this...

Fang Shouyi looked troubled and immediately gave a wry smile.

"No, they've all been bought. All my extra Qi-refining talismans were taken by the Qian family. The price wasn't 3,500, they gave me 3,000."

"If I had known, I would have saved some for you."

"Don't even mention me. In the Northern Region, any extra Qi Refining Talismans, if they're not in the hands of the Liang family, have been bought up by various aristocratic families. There are very few left."

Ren Qingshan remained silent.

Also.

Even if the Immortal Sect loosens its grip and increases the supply of Qi Refining Talismans...

But how can the wealthy families of the Northern Region compare to the cultivation families?

The Liang family is a Foundation Establishment family in the Northern Region. They still have extra Qi Refining Talismans to auction off, which will expand the family's influence and probably attract customers to the gambling den.

Liang Dingqian was a member of the Liang family, so he would have one or a few extra bills on hand.

But for a rogue cultivator like Fang Shouyi with no connections, if a powerful family comes to buy him, he probably won't be able to refuse!

A prestigious family!

"Brother Ren, you have nothing to worry about. The Earthly Mechanism is recovering, and there will be a supply of Qi-refining talismans every year from now on. I will definitely reserve one for you next year."

"I recently acquired a bottle of fine wine. We haven't seen each other for years, how about we have a good drink?"

Fang Shouyi extended a warm invitation.

Ren Qingshan smiled and declined, saying that he still had to do things for the Jin family and time was tight. He promised to wait until next time to drink and have a good time, and not leave until they were drunk.

Both of them were reluctant to leave.

Only then did he leave.

Once they were high in the sky, Ren Qingshan shook his head and smiled.

The Jin family's brand name is still effective.

Fang Shouyi was arrogant at first but became respectful later.

The sword cultivator's back was bent over!

……

Having failed to purchase the Qi-refining talisman from Fang Shouyi, Ren Qingshan ceased inquiring about the remaining counties.

Head straight to Zhenbeicheng.

Find out that the Liang family has six more auctions scheduled.

So he gave Ren Jiangtao 10,000 spirit stones, asking him to buy at least one more ticket, and preferably two.

Ren Jiangtao solemnly agreed.

……

After finishing these tasks, Ren Qingshan left and headed straight for Tiandu.

On the road.

News of Jin Wujiu has arrived.

"The guardian immortal of Huan Guang County in the Northern Region has died. It is suspected that the earth's mechanism has been revived and demons are causing trouble. Since you are in the Northern Region, you might as well go and investigate."

……
