Lin Huang scanned the jade slips with his Divine Telekinesis. The six jade slips recorded cultivation methods, but they were incomplete. The most they could do was elevate one to immortal-level.
The system of the cultivation methods was completely different from the mainstream cultivation system in the outside world. Instead of relying on monsters to elevate one's power, it depended on one's own cultivation.
They belonged to the same system as the Twisted Fate Scripture that Lin Huang had cultivated before. However, the requirements to cultivate these methods were much lower than the Twisted Fate Scripture's.
One must know that Lin Huang had cultivated Army Attack Tactics to level-10 before he stepped into the Twisted Fate Scripture's cultivation threshold. The threshold stopped most of the modern cultivators.
However, the difficulty level of the cultivation methods recorded in the jade slips was only slightly higher than Army Attack Tactics. Basically, those who had achieved holy fire-level had reached the cultivation standard.
Moreover, to Lin Huang, it was not difficult to cultivate to immortal-level with these cultivation methods. However, the contents of the cultivation methods after immortal-level were missing. He could not be sure if these cultivation methods were similar to the Twisted Fate Scripture in that they had a requirement on one's innate talent. He had no idea what level these cultivation methods would allow one to reach.
If they could help one break through to virtual god-level with a lower requirement on talent, it would mean that there would be a large number of powerhouses elevating to virtual god-level in the future.
To a certain extent, it was a good thing. The more powerhouses there were, the more power they would have to fight against the Abyss Brink.
However, it was not good news for Lin Huang and Mr. Fu.
Mr. Fu was the only Virtual God in this land (at least on the surface). Even though he was dying, he could suppress the enemies. His enemies and those who had ulterior motives dared not simply attack him.
As soon as the new cultivation system was popularized, there would be an increase in the number of Virtual Gods in the world. Mr. Fu would be in danger. Meanwhile, Lin Huang had yet to mature. Even if he could fight an imperial-level with all his trump cards, he would not be able to fight a demigod, let alone a Virtual God who was even more powerful.
Lin Huang thought about it a lot while holding the jade slips in his hand. Eventually, he decided to keep the cultivation methods a secret for now. He planned to discuss with Mr. Fu before deciding what to do.
As for whether other people would discover this secret, it was not something that Lin Huang could control. He could only leave it to fate.
Putting away the jade slip, Lin Huang glanced at the black water serpent, his eyes fierce. "Kill it. And those little demons, don't leave them alive. "
In the next second, the huge head of the One-eyed Python exploded, and the headless corpse collapsed to the ground, black blood flowing all over the ground.
More than ten kilometers away, the heads of dozens of small demons also exploded one after another like watermelons falling from a high place, turning into headless corpses.
Lin Huang then brought Bloody back to the inn after putting away the one-eyed boa's headless carcass.
In the inn, several people had already fallen asleep.
Tan Lang was sitting on the sofa, keeping watch. When he saw Lin Huang come in, he lowered his voice and asked, "Is it done?"
"Yes." Lin Huang nodded.
Li Jia was sitting on the bed with his legs crossed. He only opened his eyes when he heard the duo's conversation. He looked at Lin Huang with a rather surprised expression. "So fast?"
Although the Black Dragon Mountain was not far away, it was difficult to look for dozens of monsters in the mountain that stretched up to a hundred kilometers.
"We were lucky. We found the snake monster soon after we got there."
"Isn't it a sky dragon?" Shen Tao, who was sitting aside, asked.
"No, it's a giant boa."
"You guys should sleep early. We don't know what's going to happen in the city tomorrow." Tan Lang stopped the few of them from chatting.
Lin Huang had something on his mind, so he was not in the mood to chat. He took off his jacket and lay down on an empty bed.
Shen Tao and the rest thought he was tired, so they stopped bothering him.
In reality, Lin Huang did not sleep at all that night. Although his eyes were closed, he was thinking about the cultivation methods on the jade slips.
The next day, they headed straight to the city that was closest to them when the sun rose.
What they did not know was that the news of immortals arriving in town had spread early in the morning.
The owner of the inn and the waiter just found out that the ten poor people who stayed in the bungalow last night were immortals.
However, by the time the news spread, Lin Huang and the rest had already arrived at the city.
The city charged ordinary people and martial artists, but it was free for immortals.
Immortals belonged to the privileged class in this world. They were treated well almost everywhere.
Lin Huang and the rest found out about that from the town's government last night.
The ten of them landed from the sky intentionally when they arrived at the city gate. They attracted the attention of a crowd. The guards at the gate smiled as they watched the ten of them enter the city.
The reason they did that was because they did not have any local currency with them. They had borrowed money from the government to stay in the inn last night, and they stayed in the cheapest bungalow. If they did not reveal their identity as immortals, they would have to pay a huge sum of money to enter the city.
"Hey, can we go to the Chamber of Commerce or the auction house first? Let's at least get some local currency. It's terrible to be penniless, "Shen Tao was the first to suggest as soon as they entered the city.
"I agree. One night's experience of being poor is enough," Li Jia agreed immediately. "Also, I'd like to stay in a single room tonight. Your feet stink."
"That doesn't include me. My feet don't stink," Shen Tao clarified himself immediately.
"I'm talking about you. Your feet smell like pickles that have been pickled for 18 years," Li Jia said while glaring at Shen Tao.
"Alright, stop arguing. Let's go to the Chamber of Commerce and sell some monster carcasses for money. "Tan Lang finally could not help but end the topic.
Soon, they found the Chamber of Commerce that belonged to immortals. Each of them took out a couple of monster carcasses that they had killed in the ruins to exchange for money.
The first monster carcass that Lin Huang took out was the one-eyed boa whose head had been exploded by Bloody. He then took out two high-level immortal-level monster carcasses that had their heads destroyed and could not be parasitized by Bloody.
Tan Lang and the rest had a strange expression on their faces when they saw the few monster carcasses that Lin Huang took out.
"I can't tell that you're a monster who explodes heads," Shen Tao said softly while rubbing his nose.
Lin Huang did not bother to explain anything. He had always been a psychic when he was on the Stairway Tree. Indeed, it was easy for a psychic to explode a monster's head with flying daggers.
The currency that the Chamber of Commerce used to purchase monster carcasses was the common currency used by immortals — spirit stones.
It was the gray crystal that Lin Huang had found in his storage ring earlier.
A high-level immortal-level monster carcass could be exchanged for one million to ten million spirit stones.
Lin Huang and the rest had only sold a few monster carcasses and they had turned from penniless to millionaires.
After getting the spirit stones, Tan Lang stayed at the Chamber of Commerce for a while. He asked around and brought them to an inn called the Hidden Dragon Inn.
It was said that the owner of the Hidden Dragon Inn was a powerful immortal. It was also the place with the most immortals in the entire city. They only accepted spirit stones when they checked in. They did not accept ordinary people's currency.
As soon as they stepped into the inn, Lin Huang and the rest sensed the auras of cultivators. There were holy fire-level and immortal-level cultivators.
However, the most powerful ones were only on mid-level immortal-level. They were far weaker than immortal-level rank-9s like Tan Lang and the rest.
Noticing that many of the cultivators were sizing them up, Tan Lang signaled Shen Tao with his eyes.
Shen Tao took a step forward. His terrifying immortal-level rank-9 aura spread in the inn immediately, causing the entire inn to fall into silence.
His gaze, which was originally filled with malicious intent, instantly turned into fear.
After releasing the message for a moment and giving a signal, Shen Tao recalled his aura and turned his head to look at the counter. "Waiter, I'd like ten premium rooms!"
The waiter actually had the combat strength of a gold flame-level, but it was nothing to Lin Huang and the rest.
He was shocked when he sensed Shen Tao's aura. He only snapped back to his senses when he heard Shen Tao talking to him. He then greeted Shen Tao enthusiastically.
After checking in Lin Huang and the rest, he immediately brought them to visit the rooms on the third floor.
After Lin Huang and the rest had picked ten rooms that they were satisfied with, he then returned to the counter on the first floor to work on other matters.
"What should we do next?" The ten of them gathered in Tan Lang's room.
