Three days later.

Wang Ba sits in a tree hollow with the help of the Lifespan Panel, and the last bit of the Golden Magnetic Sand in front of him is also completely used up.

And his “Golden Wind Arrow” has also successfully cultivated to a peak state.

The so-called peak does not mean that the power is constant, but under the equivalent quality and quantity of Mana, it is difficult for the power to change again.

If it is carried out with the Cultivation Base of Golden Core, it is naturally much stronger than the Qi Refining stage.

But this is brought about by the change in Mana, not by the spell itself.

“Next, I have to transform the gold-style Mana, which contains Golden Magnetic Sand, into the Class II water-style ‘Jade Dew Mana’ under the guidance of The Manual of Golden Wind and Jade Dew.”

Wang Ba took out The Manual of Golden Wind and Jade Dew and read it carefully several times.

Soon, the corresponding items appeared on the Lifespan Panel.

[Consumable Items: The Mana conversion of “The Manual of Golden Wind and Jade Dew”, combined with qualification, root bone, and Cultivation Base, requires a conversion of 27 years.]

“As expected of a Class II powerful spell… with my current qualification and Cultivation Base, it will actually take 27 years for successful Cultivation.” Wang Ba is slightly surprised.

Although 27 years is not much for him, a normal Foundation Establishment Competitor actually only has about 200 years of lifespan.

Two hundred years seems like a lot, but for most cultivators, it is actually very tight.

Most Cultivators, if they can enter the Foundation Establishment at the age of eighty, even if it is a joyful progress, then the early, middle and late stages of the Foundation Establishment, if successful, each segment will take at least twenty years.

In this way, most of the lifespan is gone.

Combine it with the bottleneck period between each level; the 200-year lifespan suddenly seems extremely tight.

And these are all ideal states. In fact, the vast majority of low-level cultivators can hardly ensure their Cultivation resources, the time is yet longer.

This also means that to cultivate a Class II powerful spell, either they are extraordinarily gifted or they have a substantial family background.

Wang Ba has neither.

Just about to use his lifespan to practice this spell, suddenly a Sound Transmission Talisman flew in.

“Liu Yaodong asked for a meeting?”

After Wang Ba glanced at the content of the Sound Transmission Talisman, his face showed a puzzled expression.

After feeling the Power of the Yin God, and finding that he was still in effect, after slight hesitation, he finally chose to meet.

Soon, he saw Liu Yaodong walking in respectfully.

“Senior, I have something important to report to you.”

“Say it, what’s the matter.”

“Yes, just a while ago, the Lord of Jinhe City personally came here…”

On hearing Jinhe City, Wang Ba’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he couldn’t help but think of Zhu Jianyi, who was killed by him.

There was a trace of guilty conscience in his heart.

However, Liu Yaodong continued: “He gave me a portrait and a few Sound Transmission Talismans, asking me to inform him immediately if I ever saw the person in the picture.”

“After looking at it, only then did I discover that the person in the portrait is a senior, and I felt something was abnormal. Hence, I specifically came to inform you.”

Saying this, he withdrew a portrait from his sleeve. Wang Ba had a look, it was undoubtedly his face.

His heart sank. He didn’t know where he had exposed his identity, but it was clear that this was most likely the work of Master Lin, who was Zhu Jianyi’s master.

Thinking about this, he furrowed his eyebrows.

While dealing with a Qi Refining stage cultivator, Wang Ba did not feel any pressure, but when it came to a Foundation Establishment Competitor, he was somewhat apprehensive.

After all, since his breakthrough, other than briefly clashing with Song Buping before stopping, he had no experience in fighting against cultivators of the same level.

In his mind, he was not clear whether his Spirit Beasts could compete with this Master Lin.

“However… a regular early-stage Foundation Establishment should not be a problem, right?”

Wang Ba measured in his mind.

Only according to the previous Zhu Jianyi’s description of his mentor, the other party was clearly a middle-stage Foundation Establishment competitor. Just on the basis of Mana cultivation, he might be far superior to Wang Ba.

After thinking for a moment, he finally made a decision.

In two days, after participating in the Luofu Ghost Market and Nichang Ghost Market, he would immediately withdraw to Tianmen Cult.

Back to Jiantao Station, he first hid from this wave.

Anyway, he had made quite a gain this time, there was no need to wait for trouble to come.

Although he could change his face temporarily with Mana to achieve the effect of disguise, but who knows if there is some unusual spell that could find him.

Being in unfamiliar territory, it is better to leave.

After dismissing Liu Yaodong, He immediately started the transformation of Mana using his lifespan.

Half a day passed.

Feeling that half of the water-style Mana in his body has been transformed into a more substantial and heavy, water-style ‘Jade Dew Mana’ with a hint of gold- style Mana’s sharpness, Wang Ba slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he had an idea.

He walked out of the tree hollow.

In the half-air outside the tree hollow, droplets of Jade Dew floated up immediately, and in a blink of an eye, they came down whistling like meteors.

A small part went deeper and deeper, and when it touched the ground, it left bottomless holes on the ground!

And a part of the Jade-Dew shaped droplets, under Wang Ba’s control, sometimes concentrated and sometimes scattered. When concentrated, it was merely a puddle of water droplets, but it seemed as heavy as Mount Tai, weighing thousands of pounds, falling on the ground, immediately caused a thunderous roar, and even the ground vibrated.

When scattered, it is like a sharp blade, capable of splitting gold and jade, easily cutting everything tall within a radius of a hundred miles into two halves!

The power of this Class II powerful spell made Wang Ba nod with satisfaction.

Although due to the early-stage Foundation Establishment-Mana, this Class II powerful spell cannot display its full power, but in terms of power alone, it is only slightly worse than the Iris Invisible Needle.

This is already a very high level.

After all, the power of a Magic Tool is generally much higher than a Spell.

But compared with the Magic Tool, the control of the spell is more flexible and follows one’s heart.

“If the Iris Invisible Needle is hidden in the Dew, and then attack those unsuspecting cultivators…”

Wang Ba came up with an idea.

He started his experiment immediately.

At first, it’s difficult. After all, though Magic Tools have great power, they’re not as handy as Spells when in operation.

However, since he was using his Lifespan to transform the Spells, his grasp over Mana was extremely quick.

With his multitasking, he gradually mastered the Jade Dew Needle Concealment tactics.

Generally, unsuspecting Cultivators would only notice the powerful force of Jade Dew and after fending it off with great effort, they would then be hit by the Iris Invisible Needle.

“Pity that poisons which take effect on cultivators are extremely rare. Even Tianmen Cult doesn’t have them; otherwise, I could have poisoned the Iris Invisible Needle.”

Wang Ba expressed a touch of regret.

Taking advantage of the little time left, he practiced the ‘God-trusting Torch’ Sutra a bit more.

Perhaps because it involves the Soul, the time needed for this spell was no less than that of the ‘Golden Wind Jade Dew Tactics’.

However, with the help of the Lifespan expenditure, he quickly mastered this Spell.

But after mastering the spell, there came a slightly troublesome issue.

“The candles used for the God-trusting Torch are made from the wax of the ‘Fragrance Bee’. This Fragrance Bee, although merely a Class I Spirit Insect, is not easy to find.”

At that moment, without a proper solution, he could only wait for the two big Ghost Markets to open.

Soon enough, two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The time for Luofu Ghost Market and Nichang Ghost Market to open has finally arrived.

Luofu Ghost Market.

Other than Nichang Ghost Market, this was the largest Ghost Market in the northwest part of Yan State.

Even the nearby Linglong Ghost Market couldn’t compare to it.

It was situated atop a mountain peak.

There was no difference between it and the many other peaks in the north of Yan State.

Enveloped by clouds and mist, outsiders couldn’t find the entrance without guidance.

Today was the day it opened.

An old, slightly chubby figure arrived at the site early. It was Li Qu.

After doing some actions, a Foundation Establishment Competitor dressed in gray quickly arrived in response; he walked step by step out from the clouds and mist.

Seeing Li Qu, the cultivator dressed in gray showed some surprise:

“It’s Fellow Cultivator Li, why are you here so early today?”

“Ha ha, I’m just fulfilling another’s request, so I have something I need to bother fellow Daoist Zhang with.”

Li Qu slightly raised his hand, chuckling.

Upon hearing Li Qu, The grey-robed Cultivator did not immediately nod his head, but politely said:

“With Fellow Daoist Li’s extraordinary abilities, if there is something even you can’t solve, I’m afraid I… ”

“This isn’t a hard task and it won’t trouble you either. Fellow Lin Xiwen from Jinhe City has entrusted me with this. His disciple was killed by a Foundation Establishment Competitor and now Fellow Lin wants to capture the killer to avenge his dead disciple.”

Li Qu quickly explained.

Hearing this, the gray-robed cultivator frowned and responded: “I don’t see how this is my concern. Besides, Fellow Li should know that we at Luofu Ghost Market have always refrained from getting involved in conflicts among cultivators. Even as a manager here, I wouldn’t dare violate this rule. Hence, you’ll have to understand.”

“No, no, no.”

Li Qu had a plan up his sleeve and said: “You don’t need to worry. Lin Xiwen just means that if the killer happens to come to Luofu Ghost Market, when you see him, you only need to relay the news to him. We most certainly won’t initiate a conflict within the Ghost Market, and you won’t be affected either.” “And as a reward, Lin Xiwen recently crafted a new batch of the ‘Stone Fire True Yuan Pills’ and is willing to share a bottle with you.”

“Stone Fire True Yuan Pills?!”

The grayly dressed cultivator surnamed Zhang was shocked for a moment, and then couldn’t help but feel tempted.

The Stone Fire True Yuan Pill was a Class II Elixir, extremely effective for breaking through the bottleneck from the early-stage to the middle-stage of Foundation Establishment.

He had been stuck at the bottleneck of the early-stage of Foundation Establishment for too long. If he had the Stone Fire True Yuan Pill, he might be able to make further progress.

And all he had to do in return was to send a Sound Transmission Talisman to the others.

At present, it’s provided that the person would indeed come to Luofu Ghost Market.

After a moment’s thought, in the end, he could not resist the temptation of the elixir and asked: “What does the person look like, and what is his Cultivation Base?”

Hearing that, Li Qu couldn’t help but laugh secretly.

He knew the cultivator wouldn’t be able to resist this kind of temptation.

He then presented the sketch of Wang Ba and the information they had collected based on some situations and told it to the gray-robed Cultivator. The gray-robed Cultivator took these materials, glanced at them, and then immediately nodded his head. Without uttering a word, he directly turned around and step by step walked back into the clouds and mist.

Seeing this, Li Qu didn’t mind. He waved his robe and quickly vanished from the spot.

Meanwhile.

Near Canglan City.

In front of the tree hollow.

“Senior, shall we go to Luofu Ghost Market first or…?”

Liu Yaodong asked respectfully, bending over.

“Let’s go to Luofu Ghost Market first.”

Wang Ba opened his mouth without much thought.

Liu Yaodong immediately nodded, and just as he was about to leave to make preparations, Wang Ba stopped him.

“Which of these two Ghost Markets is nearer?”

“This… Naturally it’s Nichang Ghost Market.”

Liu Yaodong thought briefly before saying, “Nichang Ghost Market is to our north, at the junction of Yan and Song Dynasties. And Luofu Ghost Market is in the southeast, very far from us.”

“Then let’s go to Nichang Ghost Market first.”

After thinking for a while, Wang Ba finally spoke.
