Chapter 71

After Liu Fan finished speaking, countless illusions appeared before Luo Li, including various divine weapons, magical treasures, various heavenly spiritual items, various divine beasts and magical pets, which left Luo Li dazzled. In an instant, all those things disappeared, leaving only one thing behind!

A completely ordinary water droplet, about the size of a fist, floated in the air! This was very similar to the innate spiritual item that Fairy Ruo Tong had given him to consume at that time.

Luo Li hesitated and asked, "What about those treasures?"

Liu Fan said, "Those treasures, you can only look at them. Whether they are flying swords, magical treasures, or spiritual pets and elixirs, do you think you can keep them?

Tomorrow, when something happens at Konyuan Peak, the Lingdie Sect will certainly investigate in detail. Once they check your storage bag, all the treasures will belong to them. After taking the elixir and your realm surges, even a fool would know there's something wrong with you!

Therefore, those treasures are not for you. This is the only one that has a connection with you, a Yellow-grade mid-rank heavenly spiritual item, the Cloud Pine Heart Liquid!

This is a miraculous spiritual liquid produced by the heart of a ten-thousand-year-old Cloud Pine tree. The Cloud Pine stands tall and straight, reaching into the clouds, and after a thousand years, it can produce a tree heart. After another thousand years, a drop of spiritual liquid can be born in the tree heart. This clump of spiritual liquid is the accumulation of thirty thousand years, with the power to repair the spirit. It is a special spiritual medicine for repairing the spirit sea!

Do you think you came out of the battle with Xi Yi unscathed? Wrong. Although Xi Yi dissipated, your spirit sea is riddled with flaws and countless hidden injuries, on the verge of collapse.

If this continues, although you won't die, your path to immortality will be cut off, and you will forever remain a Disciple of the Fourth Level of Qi Cultivation!

Therefore, I have specially prepared this Yellow-grade mid-rank heavenly spiritual item, the Cloud Pine Heart Liquid, for you. After you return, immediately refine it, leaving no trace, to repair your spirit sea, so you can continue to advance without any worries about future cultivation. This way, watching your life will be more interesting!

This Cloud Pine Heart Liquid is worth a medium-sized spirit vein! Do you want to buy it?"

Luo Li, hearing this, nodded and said, "I'll buy it!"

Regardless of whether what this guy said was true or false, even if there was just a slight possibility, this treasure had to be bought, as he wouldn't lose anything!

Liu Fan said, "Thank you for your purchase!"

Instantly, the clump of spiritual liquid disappeared, and a row of secret manuals appeared on the counter!

Liu Fan continued, "Flying swords, magical treasures, spiritual pets, and elixirs, these cannot be sold to you. Selling them would harm you. Only these secret manuals can be bought freely!

Wealth, Dharma, Companion, and Place, Dharma ranks second in cultivation. Dharma should not be passed to six ears, and it is the most valuable!"

Luo Li looked at the secret manuals: *Thirty-Three Cloud Talisman True Scripture*, *Ancient Hebrew True Spirit Text*, *Seven Methods of Devil-Devouring Medicine*, *Fire Luo Steel Refining Technique*, *Twelve Key Points of Immortal Plant Pest Control*, *Flying Heaven Concealment and Ore Seeking Technique*, *Cloud Mist Armor Refining Technique*, *Nine Degrees True Text*, *Heavenly Mansion Subtle Refining Technique*, *Heaven and Earth Interaction Divine Response Beast Taming Great Technique*, *Upper True Nine Heavens Water Refining True Elixir Scripture*, *Mixed Yuan Mixed One Spirit Mirror Technique*, *Divine Star Traveling and Guiding Technique*...

There were thousands of secret manuals, and each one had a brief introduction. Luo Li flipped through them, picking up *Thirty-Three Cloud Talisman True Scripture*. This was a secret manual written by True Lord Qixia of the Cloud Mist Sect, introducing the method of talisman refinement. He then picked up *Fire Luo Steel Refining Technique*, written by True Master Sanwei of the Fire Luo Sect, teaching the method of refining various ores.

After flipping through them, Luo Li confirmed that these secret techniques were all basic methods for refining talismans, elixirs, and artifacts. He even saw the Lingdie Sect's method of raising spirit butterflies, which he had seen in the scripture hall at Konyuan Peak. He didn't expect to find it here!

Luo Li shook his head. There was nothing like *Heart of Freedom Scripture* or *Dust Accumulation Technique*, those powerful cultivation classics! There were no divine techniques with the power to destroy heaven and earth!

Luo Li said, "Senior, you're underestimating me. These secret manuals are just filling the ranks. If you want to sell, bring out something real!"

Liu Fan shook his head and said, "You don't understand. These are the essence of the sixteen arts of cultivation. Mastering these secret manuals will give you the means to earn spirit stones. With one skill in hand, cultivation will be worry-free. Old Luo became a Golden Core True Person because he mastered the cultivation of Immortal Dragon Fruit. This is a lesson from the past!

Moreover, you have cultivated the *Heart of Freedom Scripture* of the Ten Thousand Beasts Transformation Sect and the *Dust Accumulation Technique* of the Tianxingjian Sect, which are the best entry-level techniques of these sects. Other cultivation techniques of true qi are not very useful to you now.

Furthermore, although Old Luo failed, he has made you succeed. Soon, your Butterfly Dragon Transformation will be complete, and it can be said that this technique is one of the strongest in the Qi Cultivation realm. Therefore, selling you those magical techniques and divine powers is meaningless!

These are what you need the most!"

Hearing this, Luo Li couldn't help but nod. Indeed, he had gone to great lengths to obtain the secret manual for talisman refinement. Grandmaster Xi Yi even sold his favorite senior sister for the Immortal Dragon Fruit.

Moreover, the supreme inheritance of the Divine Might Sect was waiting for him to inherit, which was far better than the other magical techniques and divine powers that Liu Fan was selling. What he lacked now was the spirit stone for travel, so these secret manuals were the most valuable to him at the moment!

Luo Li said, "Alright, I'll buy the secret manuals of the sixteen arts of cultivation, but these are not good enough. Give me something substantial, something truly valuable, something worth a medium-sized spirit vein!"

Liu Fan laughed and said, "You know good stuff! Here comes the good stuff!"

He waved his hand, and many secret manuals disappeared, leaving only thirty-seven!

Liu Fan continued, "The sixteen arts of cultivation: mining, artifact refining, sword refining, spirit slaughter, medicinal cuisine, planting, elixir refining, beast taming, spirit raising, soul refining, talisman refining, armor refining, spirit text, spirit appraisal, array setting, and law attachment!

Each art is significant. I tell you, every successful cultivator masters several of these arts, which allows them to progress further on the path of immortality!

Otherwise, when you kill demons, if you don't know spirit slaughter, you'll lose at least half the spirit stones; if you don't know soul refining, you'll lose the soul of a powerful enemy and a large amount of spirit stones; if you don't know spirit appraisal, you'll treat treasures as stones, being blind to their value; if you don't know mining, even if you find a spirit stone mine, you'll lose a large amount of spirit stones.

If you don't know artifact refining, sword refining, or armor refining, you'll have to buy from others, who will rip you off; if you don't know elixir refining, you'll be at the mercy of others; if you don't understand spirit text, you won't be able to read the Ten Great Holy Scriptures; if you don't know array setting, you'll be trapped to death in ruins!

Therefore, the sixteen arts of cultivation are the most valuable, and many professional spirit masters have emerged from them, such as mining experts, mine builders, and miners, and spirit plant experts.

Even the major sects place great importance on this. Among them, Kunlun is the most prominent!"

Instantly, a secret manual appeared before Luo Li, with a very ordinary name: *Kunlun Ten Thousand Questions on the Arts of Cultivation*.

Liu Fan started promoting it, saying, "Two Ghosts, Three Witches, Seventeen Dao, Five Demons, Four Annihilations, Thirty Devils! Eight Qi, Six Tricks, Sixteen Swords! Seven Wonders, Nine Evils, Ten Venerable Buddhas! All the major sects are included in this poem!

But there is one sect that is not included in this poem! That is Kunlun! Kunlun possesses one of the Ten Great Holy Scriptures of cultivation, the Jade Book of Gold Register. Since the birth of humans, the Kunlun Sect has existed in the Central World. Through the ancient chaotic era, the ancient era of gods and demons, the ancient era of divine might, the recent era of immortals, to the modern era of sects, it has lasted for countless tens of thousands of years, and its tradition continues to this day, never ceasing!

Therefore, it is said that the great way of the world comes from Kunlun!

This is the *Kunlun Ten Thousand Questions on the Arts of Cultivation* that Kunlun disciples must cultivate. This scripture, in the form of questions and answers, covers all the sixteen arts of cultivation, encompassing all aspects of a cultivator's life.

From mining and refining treasures to refining spirits and slaughtering demons, even to dressing and speaking, appearance and demeanor, it provides incredibly detailed introductions and explanations, supported by secret techniques. With this scripture in hand, you will master all the arts of cultivation! The thousands of secret manuals mentioned earlier are all included here!

This scripture has been named the Holy Scripture of the Arts of Cultivation by the Broad and Profound Sect, and has been adopted as the foundational scripture for the disciples of thirty-eight major sects, including the Boundless Sect, the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Vastly Righteous Sect, the Shadow Demon Sect, the Filthy Demon Sect, the Illusion Demon Sect, the Great Luo Golden Immortal Sect, the Sun God Palace, the Traction Sect, the Ten Thousand Images Sect, the Creation Sect, the Blood Sea Sect, and the Seven Injuries Sect. It can be said to be the most basic, comprehensive, perfect, and valuable secret manual of the sixteen arts of cultivation!

How about it, is it substantial? Is it worth a medium-sized spirit vein?"

After he finished speaking, the secret manual automatically opened, revealing its contents, showing several aspects of talisman refinement.

"Question: What is the bone of a talisman, what is the heart of a talisman, and what is the eye of a talisman?"

"Answer: The bone of a talisman is the framework formed by the brush strokes when the talisman is drawn. The bone of a talisman, like the bones of a person, must be strong and firm to perfectly manifest the power of the talisman. As the saying goes, 'A talisman with bone is true, and its strength is fierce!'

The heart of a talisman is its spirit. Without spirit, a talisman cannot be formed. If it has spirit, it will be intelligent and divine, with a natural beauty. This is the heart of a talisman. As the saying goes, 'A talisman with a heart pattern, the gods and spirits are amazed!'

The eye of a talisman is its essence. Once the eye is formed, the heart and bone are connected, and the talisman becomes spiritual and complete. As the saying goes, 'A talisman opens its heavenly eye, and the world is contained in a single talisman!'

A talisman with bone, heart, and eye is a golden talisman, immediately forming a wondrous and profound meaning, complex and varied, fully displaying the profound mysteries, integrating the twelve qi of the sun, moon, yin, yang, light, thunder, darkness, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Within the small talisman, the various qi interact, forming a world, and no matter how fierce the lightning outside, the inside remains ever-lasting and unceasing.

..."

Luo Li casually glanced over, and he was immediately stunned. His face alternated between joy, distress, enlightenment, and deep thought. The content was obscure and difficult to understand, and it was vast and scattered.

But in Luo Li's mind, it felt like a sudden enlightenment. The many problems he had encountered in talisman refinement were easily solved, and his understanding became clear.

The secret manual suddenly closed, and Luo Li came to his senses, wishing he could take another look. He took a deep breath and said:

"Buy, buy, I'll buy it, I must buy it!"

Liu Fan said, "I will inject this secret manual into your spirit sea in the form of divine consciousness, lasting for a thousand years. You can read it at will, and no one else will discover it. However, the old rule applies: Dharma should not be passed to six ears. This secret manual can only be mastered by you and must not be passed to others!"

This means that the scripture itself cannot be taught to others, but it doesn't say that the techniques Luo Li masters cannot be taught!

Luo Li nodded, indicating that he understood!

Liu Fan said, "Thank you for your purchase!"

The secret manual disappeared, leaving thirty-six secret manuals floating before Luo Li!
