From Family Fisherman to Water Virtue True Immortal Chapter 206 - 201: Lei Family of the Eight Desolations

"Golden Core Techniques are reserved only for cultivators with a Thunder Spirit Root to practice..."

Master Huang Li frowned slightly and gave a wry smile: "Chi Longzi, you have indeed given a tough problem!"

"It’s just a technique, Master. With your wide connections, surely it won’t be too difficult to find."

Li Quanqing blinked his eyes, deliberately took out two bottles of Taiyin Soul Water, the liquid inside as pure as the moon, sparkling with sacred brilliance, exceptionally tempting.

Upon seeing this, Master Huang Li couldn’t help but give a bitter smile: "Let think, after all, it’s about Golden Core Techniques which aren’t easy to find..."

In fact, Li Kunlun had also visited the Cold Chi Immortal City several tis when he was younger and had established his own connections.

They were a group of Thunder Attribute Spirit Root Cultivators, numbering seven or eight, who gathered together for warmth in the Immortal City and lived a rather decent life.

Unfortunately, with Li Kunlun’s current level of cultivation, he was already the top of this small circle and could not get any help.

Master Huang Li took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and after contacting the Elder stationed in the Scripture Pavilion of the Immortal City, he shook his head slightly: "It’s a sha, the Scripture Pavilion has no such technique."

Li Quanqing was not discouraged. The Wind and Thunder Spirit Root was, after all, a rare Abnormal Spirit Root, making the Golden Core Techniques available for their cultivation even more scarce.

He simply took out another jade bottle gently, within it the Taiyin Soul Water rippled, shedding shimring light, from which emanated a faint and refreshing fragrance.

Master Huang Li could only smile bitterly; this truly hit his weak spot, compelling him to put in every effort.

He closed his eyes in thought for a mont, then suddenly said: "Have you heard of the Thunder Clan in the Eight Desolate Sea Domain, the renowned Golden Core Family whose domain lies extrely close to the outer sea and whose family is filled with powerful individuals?"

"The Eight Desolate Lei Family... is it that Golden Core Clan with three True Masters?"

Li Kunlun raised his eyebrow, having actually heard of the great reputation of this family among Thunder Spirit Root Cultivators.

Just from the na, it was clear that this family had a close affinity with Thunder Spirit Roots, perhaps because their ancestors had profound cultivation and extraordinary lineage, making the occurrence of Thunder Spirit Roots in their family highly likely.

There were even rumors that Lei Family ancestors might have been descendants of a certain Nascent Soul True Monarch and held a high standing among the Human Clan powers in the outer sea.

"Indeed, I just so happen to know a core mber of the Eight Desolate Lei Family. I’m willing to introduce the two fellow cultivators to them; perhaps you might be able to acquire the Lei Family’s ’Eight Desolate Thunder Brilliance Scripture.’"

Master Huang Li spoke with a smile: "It is rumored to be a rare and precious Nascent Soul Inheritance. Even if you only obtain the Golden Core Chapter, it should suffice for the needs of this Heavenly Thunder’s cultivation."

"Thank you, Master!"

Upon hearing this, Li Quanqing and his companion were overjoyed, promptly handing over the Taiyin Soul Water they had been holding.

Master Huang Li stroked the jade bottle, unable to hide a truly heartfelt smile.

Such Spirit Water, capable of nourishing one’s Divine Sense and soul, has an astonishing effect on Alchemists and naturally, the more the better.

Having received the treasure, Master Huang Li naturally took it to heart, assuring them with a slap on his chest that the matter would be accomplished and only a few days’ wait was needed for the contact.

Li Quanqing had no doubts, taking Li Kunlun to bid farewell and leave.

During the waiting period, they were not idle but managed to obtain two invitations to a major auction.

This auction was highly prestigious, only held once every few decades, and there would definitely be Foundation Establishnt Pills for sale.

Besides, there would be many Foundation Establishnt Spiritual Objects available, enough for the two to complete the goals set by their Clan.

Li Quanqing had even made a thorough visit to the shops throughout the entire Immortal City and successfully acquired the skeletons of four Second-tier top-grade Fire Fla Flood Dragons, as well as dozens of Qi Refining Flood Python remains.

With this, the materials for the Nine-Nine Fla Dragon Array flags were finally complete, and this Second-tier top-grade array was about to reveal its peerless elegance in his hands.

Just as Li Quanqing buried himself into his Cave Mansion to close up and study the Fla Dragon Array, news finally ca from Master Huang Li.

The Lei Family’s cultivators had agreed to the visit and set up a eting in a high-end tea house which seed very sincere.

On this day, in the early morning, the rising sun was dazzling, coating everything with a layer of golden morning light, full of vitality.

Li Quanqing and company set off for the agreed location and finally t the so-called mber of the Lei Family.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a female cultivator, elegantly clad in green, with a face like a painting, her every move exuding an indescribable nobility, as if she was born superior.

"Are you Heavenly Thunder?"

Lei Jinzhu toyed with the teacup, scrutinizing Li Kunlun with great care. Although seated, her gaze seed to loom over the two as if from above.

"Vibrant with the breath of life, seemingly young in age, yet a Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection cultivator, and bestowed with considerable Spirit Root talent—the likes of you are indeed rare among Loose Cultivators."

Lei Jinzhu sipped the Spiritual Tea. The fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth, her manner lofty as she sat there judging and comnting.

Her cultivation might only be at Foundation Establishnt Middle Stage, but she didn’t show the slightest fear when facing a Great Perfection cultivator, looking down with an air of superiority.

There was no helping it, this was the confidence that ca from belonging to a Golden Core Family.

What’s more, the Lei Family boasted three Golden Core True Masters, commanding influence far and wide, their reputation currently at its peak—surpassing that of ordinary Golden Core Sects.

"This Immortal, I dare not ask for a Nascent Soul Scripture of the noble clans, just an ordinary Golden Core Technique would suffice."

Li Kunlun bowed respectfully, his attitude earnest: "Could you please na a price?"

"Let’s follow the rules then. Serve my clan for a hundred years. Should you break through to Golden Core, an additional hundred years must be pledged."

Lei Jinzhu’s bright eyes stared at him, a smile appearing: "I’ve seen plenty of Loose Cultivators like yourself. This is a very profitable deal for you, trading a hundred years for a chance to reach Golden Core."

"And the oath we will make is bound by the great Dao of Heaven—do not think of taking any shortcuts, as it would be impossible."

As she said, indeed, it was a sowhat favorable trade.

A lifespan of five hundred years for a Golden Core, plus various Life Extension Elixirs, living nearly six hundred years wouldn’t be an issue.

Two hundred years might seem like a long ti, yet it wasn’t entirely unacceptable.

After all, for a Loose Cultivator, being under the wing of a Golden Core Family could certainly be considered a solid backing.

Regrettably, Li Kunlun was no Loose Cultivator; his heart was with his clan, and thus he could not agree.

If not for his concern for his clan, with his Earth Spirit Root talent, he could have even joined a Nascent Soul Sect in the past, though it would require traveling tens of millions of miles from ho.

Eventually, their negotiations failed, and they parted on less than friendly terms.

"Another cultivator who values freedom above all—seemingly wise, but in the end, it’s all for naught, turning into nothing but a handful of dust, scattered by the wind."

Lei Jinzhu shook her head slightly, showing no deep regret as she departed with a flick of her sleeve.

Li Quanqing sighed inwardly, having anticipated as much; dealing with a Golden Core Family was never easy.

Li Kunlun, however, took it in stride: "No matter, it’s rely a technique. We’ll find a way, isn’t there still the black market?"

Indeed, the black market, the ignoble black market—they also placed so of their hopes there.

A few days passed, and it was ti for the black market of Cold Chi Immortal City to open, once again at the old spot.

Thick, black mists erged from the ice mountains, obscuring the senses and confounding Divine Sense, as streaks of light cautiously entered.

Li Quanqing and the other arrived shoulder to shoulder, draped in Hidden Spirit Clothes, each wearing a hat with a drooping black cloth that masked all prying eyes.

Naturally, ordinary stalls didn’t carry Golden Core Techniques. They had a target in mind, heading straight for an individual.

Mu Daoist.

This fellow was also a Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection cultivator, originating from the Demon Hunting Hall. He favored fishing, slaughtering those treacherous Human Clan cultivators who turned their backs on their own kind.

"My fellow Daoists, have you co for the Foundation Establishnt Pill in this old man’s possession?"

Mu Daoist smiled slightly, his face covered with wood-like rings of age, deeply wrinkled and sowhat unsettling to look at.

His gaze on the two mysterious cultivators before him tightened, a forewarning from his Divine Sense, sensing a dangerous aura from them.

"Old man, stop pretending. We’ve co to you on serious business," said Li Quanqing, revealing a hint of his aura, exposing his identity.

Foundation Establishnt cultivators have photographic mories, and Mu Daoist, after a brief mont of recollection, realized: "Ah, it’s Chi Longzi, the young friend. And this is..."

"Heavenly Thunder."

Li Kunlun spoke in a deep tone: "I wish to break through to Golden Core; with your background in the Demon Hunting Hall, could you offer so guidance?"
