215 The Secret of Martial Arts (2)

Soon, the old man finished packing up his stall. He loaded all his belongings into a wooden cart and pushed it away from the street, heading to a remote place in the city.

Jiang Ming followed the old man slowly. They exchanged names. The old man’s name was Lu Qingfeng. His only family was his young granddaughter, and they depended on each other. His granddaughter was working in a shop in the city.

Jiang Ming introduced himself as Yan Chixia.

Soon, the two of them arrived at a remote alley and came to an unremarkable courtyard made of blue bricks.

“It’s a little shabby. I hope you don’t mind!” Lu Qingfeng walked into the courtyard first, his face slightly red.

Obviously. Lu Qingfeng was a little embarrassed to bring a young man from another city to stay in his humble home. If he did not urgently need money, he would not have offered.

“As long as it’s quiet, I’m happy with it!” Jiang Ming looked around and was quite satisfied.

The courtyard was simple and empty. However, it was not small. There were four or five rooms, and the space in the courtyard was enough to accommodate more than a dozen people.

“What?” Jiang Ming walked around and felt the potholes on the surface of the bricks. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he carefully observed the courtyard.

“It should have been a small martial arts school in the past.” Jiang Ming quickly tried to assess the area.

The marks on the blue bricks were not made by ordinary people. It was obvious that several people had practiced martial arts here for years. Jiang Ming had been in the martial arts world for hundreds of years. Therefore, it was easy for him to deduce these things.

It seemed that Lu Qingfeng had some stories to tell. However, he did not say much. Therefore, Jiang Ming did not ask. He was just looking for an ordinary place to stay and did not want to be a busybody.

“Please take a seat in the living room first, I’ll clean up the room for you.” Lu Qingfeng pushed the wooden cart into the courtyard and started to get busy.

A moment later, Jiang Ming moved into the room that Lu Qingfeng had tidied up. He was even more sure of his assumptions earlier. This big room that could accommodate four or five people was obviously a former dormitory.

“Since we’re here, we’ll take things as they come.”

Jiang Ming did not care. For him, living in this place was more reassuring than Xiaoqian Mountain. At least he did not have to worry about any late-stage Qi Refinement Realm criminals rushing in to kill him for money.

Just after noon, Jiang Ming ate a large bowl of noodles made by Lu Qingfeng and saw him hurriedly leaving with a teapot, saying that he was going to help in a workshop.

“He works so hard just for a few taels of silver.”

Jiang Ming shook his head and returned to his room. After a short rest, he took out a few storage rings from Luo Yanyue and the other cultivators of the Divine Eye Sect.

“I had spent almost all my money. However, I didn’t expect another wave of generous people to come. The Divine Eye Sect should be more powerful than those individual cultivators.”

Jiang Ming played with a few storage rings and could not help but smile. Then he began to check them one by one.

“There are quite a lot of spirit stones here. It’ll be enough to sustain me for a while.”

Jiang Ming’s eyes lit up and he smiled when he opened the first storage ring.

“Explosive Qi Pill? This pill increases a person’s cultivation by a small amount. However, it damages the meridians. It’s a temporary fix. In the future, I can use this in a pinch instead of wasting my mystic fire. This medicinal pill is very popular. It’s a pity that it’s a middle-grade medicinal pill. Moreover, I heard that only the head alchemist of the Fire Lotus Valley has this recipe. The small medicinal cauldron that I bought back then can’t be used anymore as my cultivation level increases. Huh? Wait a minute… This cauldron…”

Jiang Ming was suddenly stunned. He began to observe the cauldron carefully with some suspicion.

“Is this something from the Fire Lotus Valley?”

He soon found an intermediate alchemy technique in a pile of Jade Slips. It was recorded that this alchemy technique was compiled by the elders of the Fire Lotus Valley.

“Wow! These guys from the Divine Eye Sect are really bold!”

While Jiang Ming was surprised, he was also a little speechless. He did not expect to obtain an intermediate alchemy technique this way.

Jiang Ming browsed through it and smiled in satisfaction.

A moment later, Jiang Ming found a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation technique in another storage ring.

“The Mysterious Green Technique… It’s a wood attribute technique.”

Jiang Ming was not surprised at all. There were several ninth-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivators in that group. It was naturally not surprising to find a Foundation Establishment Realm technique on them.

However, Jiang Ming was not in a hurry to cultivate. He was not really a cultivator at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm. He just used the Mystic Flame Spirit Sacrifice Spell to increase his cultivation level. It would not be too late to try to build a foundation after a few more years of cultivation and entering the Black Rock Ruins.

Jiang Ming took a few glances at the technique, and to be honest, he did not really like it. Back in the mortal world, he was weak and had no choice but to use everything he received. Now that he was stronger and more established, he naturally wanted to pick the best of the best.

After that, Jiang Ming took out two more Foundation Establishment Realm cultivation techniques from Luo Yanyue’s and another person’s storage rings.

They were both alternative cultivation techniques. If he still could not find any top-notch cultivation techniques after entering the Black Rock Ruins, he would choose one of these to cultivate.
