Immortality: Starting with Plundering the Talents of Monsters

A cultivator at the Tribulation stage wouldn't dare to make a move against someone at the third level of Qi Refining?

After listening to the cultivator who came to buy talismans, a hint of doubt flashed in Xu Mo's eyes.

They quickly connected.

There is no other reason.

It's nothing more than Xu Mo and Luo Lingyue posing as cultivators at the third level of Qi Refining a few days ago, and they went too far in catching people.

They wiped out many Tribulation Cultivators in one fell swoop, making the remaining Tribulation Cultivators hesitant to act.

"Oh, that's quite strange."

Xu Mo raised an eyebrow, feigning confusion, his face showing a thoughtful expression, as if he couldn't figure it out no matter what.

"Yes, I also find this very strange."

"Why would those cultivators bother robbing someone with only the third level of Qi Refining, instead of someone with higher cultivation?"

The cultivator who came to buy the talisman was also completely baffled.

After thinking for a while, the cultivator who came to buy talismans still couldn't figure it out, so he had to put the question aside and guessed casually:

"Could it be that those cultivators who have undergone tribulation no longer lack spirit stones and have already robbed enough?"

No, that's impossible. Those cultivators who have undergone tribulations are insatiable; they wouldn't let spirit stones go unclaimed.

Besides, it would be foolish not to make money from spirit stones.

Even we cultivators would take spirit stones without hesitation if they could obtain them so easily.

"These bandits who specialize in robbing will inevitably come to steal."

The cultivator who came to buy talismans blurted out his guess, but quickly shook his head and rejected the idea.

"Could it be that these cultivators, who have just reached the third level of Qi Refining, are really looking down on my meager amount of spirit stones?"

Xu Mo looked at the puzzled expression on the face of the cultivator who had come to buy talismans and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

"Of course you wouldn't guess. Under normal circumstances, no one would think that a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining disguised himself as a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining to fish for and rob cultivators."

However, my actions saved the cultivator who came to buy talismans from disaster, so I can consider it a good deed.

"Moreover, with my actions, many cultivators might be less willing to attack other cultivators."

Xu Mo's act of disguising himself as a Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator to lure a group of Tribulation Cultivators ashore was a clever tactic.

This has made the area around Liuyun Market a bit safer, causing those cultivators to think twice before making a move.

Just as the cultivator who came to buy talismans said, those Tribulation Cultivators heard that a high-level cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining was concealing his cultivation aura.

After the story of his fishing trip, because he had never met Xu Mo, he was faced with a cultivator who was also at the third level of Qi Refining.

They were less likely to dare to rob it.

They were afraid that some high-level cultivator was deliberately pretending to be a Qi Refining Level 3 cultivator to lure them in.

Out of concern for their own safety, the cultivators dared not act rashly.

However, this is not a long-term solution.

Xu Mo's method of disguising himself as a Qi Refining Triple Strike to kill a Tribulation Cultivator is only a temporary solution.

This will keep the cultivators in the Liuyunfang area in check for a while, but they will inevitably become rampant again after this period.

"I wonder if the Zhou family of Liuyun has taken any action or any corresponding measures to deal with it."

Liuyun Market is owned by the Liuyun Zhou family. If the goal is to suppress the Jiexiu, only the Liuyun Zhou family can take action.

Ordinary rogue cultivators would be too busy running away to even try to eliminate a Tribulation Cultivator.

Only the Liuyun Zhou family and the Yushou Luo family can do this.

Although the Luo family, the Beast Tamer, has two shops in Liuyun Market, there is a late-stage Qi Refining steward sent by the Zhou family of Liuyun to oversee the market.

No cultivator dared to come.

Therefore, the Luo family, who had been competing with the Liuyun Zhou family for so many years, was the one to rely on for the Beast Taming.

Not only will they not care, they actually hope that the Liuyun Zhou family's Liuyun Market will be ruined.

"The Zhou family of Liuyun has also opened many shops in Liuyun Market. If the Jiexiu continues to be allowed to do so, it will damage the various industries of the Zhou family of Liuyun."

With the rampant activities of the Robber Cultivator, fewer people are coming to Liuyun Market, and naturally, the profits earned by the Liuyun Zhou family also decrease.

It can be said that allowing the Jiexiu to continue like this would be detrimental to the Liuyun Zhou family market.

As Xu Mo listened to the cultivator who had come to buy talismans continue to speculate, he pondered on his own.

"Of course, the Zhou family of Liuyun must have known something about the rampant Tribulation Cultivators."

However, the Liuyun Zhou family might wait until the prices of talismans and pills rise, making a fortune by exploiting these rogue cultivators, before taking action to suppress and eliminate the tribulation cultivators.

"This way, the Liuyun Zhou family can maximize their own interests."

When Xu Mo thought of this possibility, his eyes lit up slightly.

Given the nature of the Liu Yun Zhou family, it's highly likely they will do just that.

"Today, I came to your talisman shop to buy talismans, also to guard against those treacherous cultivators."

"Although those cultivators didn't attack me easily, it's not uncommon for this to happen every time. I'll feel more at ease if I buy some talismans for self-defense."

The cultivator who came to buy talismans shook his head and took his leave:

"Alright, thank you for today, Master Xu. I'll be going now. I wish you great success in your business."

After saying that, the cultivator who came to buy talismans casually reminded Xu Mo of something else.

"Master Xu, although you are a high-level cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, you still need to be cautious."

Xu Mo nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

It seems unlikely that I'll be able to profit from fishing again.

They can only honestly sell talismans.

The next day, Xu Mo ran his talisman shop as usual.

It was midday, and the sunlight, no longer as intense and scorching as before, had turned into a gentle warmth, heralding the arrival of autumn.

On the smooth stone-paved streets of Liuyunfang Market, people come and go.

The open spaces, large and small, were occupied by vendors selling all sorts of things, who were enthusiastically hawking their wares.

Every time this spot is opened, it's when the flow of people is at its peak.

Whether it's street vendors or shop owners, everyone greets customers with a smile.

The same was true for Xu Mo's talisman shop; three or five customers had already entered the shop.

Seeing so many cultivators coming to buy talismans, Xu Mo was naturally overjoyed and served his customers wholeheartedly.

"Master Xu, the quality of your talismans is far too poor!"

Just then, an angry roar entered the talisman shop, breaking the atmosphere inside.

"I just bought some talismans from your talisman shop a few days ago, and I came here today to take a look at them."

Hey, I can tell at a glance that the talismans you sold me are all defective!
