Vampire Cultivation Notes

Scorpion Lady, Yu Er, and Old Liu sighed inwardly for a while, but they had no choice but to face the situation squarely.

"Let's go..."

"Aren't you worried that this guy surnamed Zhao might leak information to the remnants of Wanbaoge?"

"Don't worry, we haven't told him where those remnants of the Wanbaoge are. Besides, with that treacherous and infuriating look, no one will believe him. The people of Wanbaoge will only keep their treasures under tighter control."

"That's right—pfft!"

There was nothing they could do, and the group walked away muttering curses under their breath.

……

……

After the three people had gone far away...

The cave door opened, and Li Jieqing, having changed his clothes, stepped out again with his hands behind his back. Gazing in the direction the three had left, he used his Blood-Seeking Technique to track their movements.

To be honest, he really wanted the things in that Wanbao Pavilion.

For example, one of the three top-grade magical artifacts that used to hang on the top of the red beam pillar, the Thousand Illusions and Ever-Changing Mask.

That magical artifact perfectly fulfilled Li Jieqing's need to conceal his face, and it was more than enough. Once he possessed it, he could easily abandon his identity as Zhao Zhengqing and live a clean and innocent third life.

According to Li Jieqing, because the Thousand Illusions Mask is such a top-grade magic artifact that it is too expensive for Qi Refining and not useful for Foundation Establishment, it has not been sold yet and should still be in the hands of the remnants of Wanbaoge that Old Liu mentioned.

Besides that top-grade magic weapon, there is also the more important complete version of "Blood Heart Freedom Secret Record".

In the past few days, Li Jieqing has watched Jiang Ping'er's "Heart Sutra" many times, but he still can't make up his mind to switch to practicing it.

The time wasted on switching to other techniques is secondary; the main issue is that although the "Heart Sutra of Reincarnation" is excellent and its true energy is of the highest quality, it is ultimately the signature technique of the Ruyi Sect. Exposing its magical power could easily lead to trouble.

Li Jieqing had been practicing the book "Blood Heart Freedom Secret Record" for many years and always felt that it was extremely suitable for him. Moreover, not to mention the accompanying Blood Heart Freedom Technique, the Blood Seeking Technique alone, combined with the physique of the vampires, produced a qualitative change.

At this moment, Scorpion Lady, Yu Er, and Old Liu had already quietly walked out of half of the market, but their blood energy still hadn't left the blood-seeking network that Li Jieqing had actively used, which showed how practical this blood-seeking technique was.

"...I am a high-end craftsman, how could I fight to the death like you rough men? There is really no skill involved at all."

"Naturally, you all go first. I, your ancestor, will follow and seize the treasure when the opportunity arises, so as to prevent both sides from ruining the atmosphere and killing too much over a few treasures, which would be against the harmony of heaven and earth."

Sensing that the blood energy of Scorpion Lady, Old Liu, and Yu Er had stopped moving, and that there were more familiar faces in that direction, including the blood energy of Yu Da, Li Jieqing nodded slightly.

Judging from the situation, everyone's plan to rob Wanbaoge must be real, and they are not here to deceive me. Otherwise, those blood energy should be lying in ambush in the surrounding area.

Looking out at the secluded corner of the market where old acquaintances gathered, beyond the cave dwelling area, Li Jieqing had already made up his mind.

The complete "Blood Heart Freedom Secret Record" is in the hands of Wanbaoge, as are the three top-grade magic artifacts of the Thousand Illusions and Hundred Changes Mask.

Now that we've found the place, we can't miss it.

Collaborating with the Yu brothers, Scorpion Lady, and others to raid and kill them would be too risky for Li Jieqing to do, nor would he do it.

Since I have little experience, I'm afraid I'll have to be wary of my teammates.

However, by using the naturally concealing black jade hairpin, he could secretly follow them and take advantage of their misfortune.

Li Jieqing was quite familiar with this matter.

……

……

"Why haven't you left yet? Haven't you discussed it yet?"

"If I were to take pity on you and immediately run to inform them while you're all dragging your feet like this, wouldn't you all explode?"

Li Jieqing continued to use the Blood-Seeking Technique, staring at that corner of the market until he was exhausted. However, as dawn approached, Yu Dayu, Yu Erxie, Old Liu, and the others still did not move. He couldn't help but curse them as a rabble.

If it were him, since he hadn't recruited any members here and had even leaked the information, he would have to make a decision immediately upon returning.

Either a group of people act immediately and rush over ahead of time to complete the objective.

Either a group of people would act immediately, secretly heading this way to silence him, the one who knew the truth but refused to cooperate.

"These days, even robbers don't know how to rob anymore. The cultivators in Taipingfang are scattered like stars in the sky when scattered, and a mob when gathered together. They're hardly of any use, hmph!"

At this moment, Li Jieqing was truly glad he hadn't joined the group. He shook his head, pressed his brow, and stopped casting the blood-seeking spell.

It seems this group isn't planning to make any moves during the day.

That's fine. Let him have some free time to tidy up the underground of the cave, so that it won't be funny if someone breaks in when he goes out.

As dawn breaks through the eastern clouds, the sunlight shines down.

What good is Japan to me?

Li Jieqing relaxed his brow, a smile playing on his lips, and calmly basked in the sunlight before turning around with a sense of satisfaction to go inside.

Just then.

At the foot of the cave slope, a moon-gazing eel that had emerged from underground to sunbathe suddenly raised its head and looked in this direction.

"Um?"

The man and the eel exchanged a glance, each filled with doubt.

Li Jieqing raised his hand and touched the black jade hairpin, then immediately realized that the black jade hairpin only concealed one's aura, but did not have the effect of making one invisible.

"What a formidable yellow worm! Judging by its size, could it be over ten zhang tall? Is it a rare late-stage first-tier monster?"

After looking around, Li Jieqing immediately closed the cave and moved to the side, preparing to lure the moon-gazing eel away.

Just then, the yellow worm on the opposite side opened its mouth and exhaled, breaking through the slope and whipping its tail towards them.

Upon being struck by the demonic energy, Li Jieqing confirmed that this was merely a mid-stage first-tier yellow worm.

However, he's probably about to break through. Once he reaches the late stage of the first tier, he can compete for the position of leader of the Moon Gazing Eel Demon Group in Taipingfang City.

However, we're only at the mid-stage of Tier 1 right now, so we're safe.

"Hahaha—follow me!"

"Considering my glorious record, even that peerless demon, the sacred beast of the West, the White Tiger, and the Lord of the Seas have all fought against me and been injured by me. Today, your good fortune has come, you yellow worm! Become my servant, a guardian spirit beast of the mountain, and it will not be an insult to you!"

After reaching the late stage of Qi Refining and having spiritual energy flowing through the body, cultivators can fly at low altitudes. At this moment, Li Jieqing stepped on the ground and floated away into the distance, luring the Moon Gazing Eel over.

The monster has discovered the existence of the cave and must be dealt with.

Even though the demon beast was physically powerful and always used its strength to easily defeat cultivators of the same level, Li Jieqing, a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator with an impressive combat record, was confident that he could use his sword to quickly kill the Moon Gazing Eel.

However, that would make too much noise and attract other moon-gazing eels, which would be one thing, but I'm afraid the white tiger might be bored and come here to stroll around today.

Secondly, Li Jieqing had recently taken the storage bag from the old Taoist priest with a unicorn, from which he obtained a method for blood sacrifice to control beasts.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the words "blood sacrifice," Li Jieqing knew he was destined to be associated with them.

There are quite a few treasures inside the cave, so I need a pet to guard it when I go out.

This moon-gazing eel was truly blessed with good fortune.

You should be secretly happy to have caught my eye.
