Song Ciwan was imrsed in her Cultivation, completely unaware of the passage of ti.
This was not the first ti she had obtained one of the Thirty-Six Celestial Spirit Techniques. Previously, she had sold [A Divinity Transformation Expert’s Scrutiny] and obtained the First Layer of the Celestial Spirit Daoist Skill, Fetal Transformation and Shape-shifting.
This was now the second ti she had obtained a Celestial Spirit Daoist Skill.
But unlike Fetal Transformation and Shape-shifting, Call Wind and Rain was a true offensive Daoist Technique!
’Just how strong is its Attack Power?’
For the mont, Song Ciwan had no opportunity to test it out.
But as she imrsed herself in her Cultivation, a feeling naturally arose within her. She suspected that even if she cultivated a Low Level Daoist Skill like the Blazing Fla Technique to its ultimate stage, Returning to the Essence, it still wouldn’t be as powerful as the First Layer of Call Wind and Rain.
In a trance, Song Ciwan seed to glimpse a boundless ocean.
Dense clouds gathered over the sea, and a gale suddenly descended.
BOOM!
Lightning flashed and thunder roared as rain poured down in a deluge.
In an instant, what rose up was no longer just wind and rain, but also endless ocean waves.
The waves were high and swift, churning violently.
The endless wind and rain whipped up ferocious waves upon the sea. Countless Sea Demons leaped from the water. So were struck by lightning, their blood spilling on the spot. Others rode the wind and waves upward, instantly breaking through the barrier of thunder and storm to soar Above the Nine Heavens and pierce through the clouds!
Those that broke through the clouds and rain were no longer ordinary Sea Demons, but had beco flood dragons, or had even transford into true dragons.
Amidst the wind and rain, Song Ciwan seed to catch a fleeting glimpse of a scale and a claw—
As the wind blew and the clouds shifted, a vast, desolate aura, like that of the primordial wilderness, rushed toward her from between that scale and claw.
Song Ciwan’s Divine Soul was suddenly pierced with a sharp pain, and she was violently thrown out of the cultivation state.
Her body pitched forward as she opened her eyes.
WHOA!
The mont she did, she felt her True Qi was completely depleted. A perfectly fine Late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, she could now barely maintain her cross-legged ditation posture.
Song Ciwan hurriedly swallowed another handful of Red Sun Pills, rapidly replenishing the True Qi she had consud.
While taking the dicine, she checked her remaining supply of Dragon Blood in the Heaven and Earth Scale.
Currently, she had about fifty to sixty catties of Dragon Blood left. One catty of Dragon Blood could usually be exchanged for ten Red Sun Pills, so it seed she wouldn’t be lacking Elixirs in the short term.
But in truth, Song Ciwan’s Cultivation was fast, and her consumption was enormous. If she used these fifty to sixty catties of Dragon Blood without restraint, they really wouldn’t last her very long.
After all, now that Song Ciwan had broken through to Late-stage Qi Refining and her Cultivation had grown stronger, her demand for Elixirs had also increased dramatically each ti she needed to replenish her energy.
’I need to find a new source of inco!’
Song Ciwan slowly regulated her breathing, then calculated the ti with a pinch of her fingers.
The result was astounding. The process of receiving Call Wind and Rain and completing its initial Beginner Cultivation had actually taken her three full days!
She then opened her Insight Technique panel and looked: Celestial Spirit Daoist Skill: Call Wind and Rain (First Layer, Beginner 12/100).
After three days of Cultivation, she had only gained 12 experience points for Call Wind and Rain.
The lingering echoes of the endless wind and rain seed to still resonate in her chest, giving her the constant urge to drop everything and continue cultivating Call Wind and Rain.
Song Ciwan suppressed the urge. She couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.
’It was a mistake. Receiving Call Wind and Rain took too much ti. With those three days, I could have used the Heaven and Earth Scale to sell things for multiple sessions of dedicated, imrsive cultivation ti for Call Wind and Rain.’
’But now, it was all wasted...’
Song Ciwan could only console herself. ’There was nothing I could do. After all, when an epiphany strikes, you can’t just force yourself to suppress it and not have it, can you?’
She slowly cald her emotions and carefully calculated the exact hour.
Outside the cave residence, the vast starry sky was exceptionally brilliant, seemingly no different from any other night.
But it was actually the end of the Hour of the Pig on the third day of the first lunar month, nearing Midnight.
Since it wasn’t yet Midnight, Song Ciwan seized the opportunity to quickly use up all ten of her daily trading chances.
She didn’t plan to sell human desires again. Instead, she tried selling a corpse.
The first she sold were the pair who had once blocked her path: the Blade Master and the Swordsman.
The two had been friends but had turned on each other over a Divine Dao Magical Artifact.
It might have seed like they died because of her, but in Song Ciwan’s view, they had really died because of their own greed.
[You have sold the damaged corpse of an Innate Second Transformation Martial Artist. You have obtained five Three-star Jade Blood Stones.]
Jade Blood Stone: This item can be used by soaking it in water. Bathing in water infused with Jade Blood Stone helps to temper the body, strengthen the bones and muscles, and is suitable for all kinds of Body Refining thods.
Note: Jade Blood Stone is a consumable item. Its rate of consumption depends on the specific circumstances.
Song Ciwan was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected to get sothing like Jade Blood Stone from selling the corpse of an ordinary Innate Second Transformation Martial Artist.
Unlike before, when she had sold Master Wu’s flesh and blood, she had received a Healing Elixir.
To be honest, both items were a bit sinister, but Song Ciwan felt no psychological burden after obtaining them.
She still held to the sa principle: those who kill will themselves be killed.
If people didn’t try to kill her, she wouldn’t kill them without reason. She wasn’t so homicidal maniac, after all.
But if soone offended her first, she wouldn’t hesitate to be ruthless. rcy to an enemy was cruelty to oneself—of this, there was no doubt, and no need to overthink it.
Song Ciwan put away the five Jade Blood Stones and then sold the Swordsman’s corpse as well.
She received another five Jade Blood Stones. At that, Song Ciwan understood that selling the corpses of ordinary Martial Artists would most likely yield Jade Blood Stones.
Now with ten Jade Blood Stones in total, Song Ciwan decided not to sell any more Martial Artist corpses. Instead, she sold the Divine Dao Magical Artifact she had originally taken from the Blade Master and Swordsman: the Soul Cleansing Lamp.
[You have sold the Two-star Level Divine Dao Magical Artifact, the Soul Cleansing Lamp. You have obtained ten Qin Talismanic Seals of the Bodhisattva Spell.]
Bodhisattva Spell: This Talisman is special and can be used even by mortals. Tearing this Talisman can purify Resentnt, pacify spirits of the dead, allow the deceased to find release, and bring clarity to the living.
Song Ciwan was secretly surprised. She had assud that selling a Divine Dao Magical Artifact would inevitably yield a new Divine Dao Magical Artifact.
Her God-Binding Whip, for instance, had been acquired in just that way.
She had never expected that selling a Divine Dao Magical Artifact could also result in obtaining a Qin Talisman.
One Divine Dao Magical Artifact in exchange for ten Bodhisattva Spells.
It was hard to say whether this was a gain or a loss. After all, the Bodhisattva Spell had its unique properties, while the Soul Cleansing Lamp was only a Two-star Level artifact.
Song Ciwan put away the ten Bodhisattva Spells and continued her trading.
This ti, she sold the saber and sword she had taken from the Blade Master and Swordsman.
[You have sold the Lower Grade Magical Artifact, the Bright Light Saber. You have obtained ten catties of Celestial teorite Iron and one tael of Beichen Pure Gold.]
[You have sold the Lower Grade Magical Artifact, the Gentleman’s Sword. You have obtained the Lower Grade Magical Artifact, the Flying Heaven Rope.]
Flying Heaven Rope: A Lower Grade Flying Magical Artifact with a degree of both flight and attack capabilities. The two are balanced, with neither being particularly outstanding.
In other words, this Magical Artifact was a jack-of-all-trades with no special features.
But being a jack-of-all-trades was also its strength. For Song Ciwan, this was, after all, her very first Flying Magical Artifact!
