In the process of burning, the Disciples of Law Enforcement Hall sprinkled some medicinal powder on the bodies, spiraling the flames further. At the same time, a pungent smell wafted through the air. Most of the surrounding crowd had dispersed, but Lin Yi stood watching until they were reduced to ashes. A gust of wind scattered the ashes, rendering them to nothing.

In the smell of burning, Lin Yi detected a familiar scent – that of poison powders he had previously encountered. Even though he had been busy earning Spirit Stones after learning to create the talisman, he never ceased his research on poison. Now his title, [Fearless of Poison], had been upgraded to the second tier, doubling all its effects, including poison resistance, poison sensing, and poison manufacturing difficulty.

Thanks to the effect of his poison detection, he could discern some of the medicinal powder that the Law Enforcement Hall Disciples had used just by the scent.

However, despite his long practice of creating poisons and the upgrade of his title, this skill wasn’t displayed on his panel like the talisman crafting.

That led him to contemplate that traditional medicine and poison were two sides of the same coin. A skilled poison maker would certainly be equally skilful in medicine. If he wanted this skill to appear on his panel, probably he must learn the art of alchemy.

“Old Huang, let’s go, let’s celebrate with some drinks at the tavern,” Lin Yi gently patted Old Huang on the shoulder.

“Hahaha, indeed, it’s worth celebrating Zhang Yuan Cheng’s end,” Old Huang laughed out loudly. He laid his hand on Lin Yi’s shoulder, and they walked together towards Qing Yun City.

They arrived at a tavern near the market. Old Huang originally planned to go to another place, the Drunken Immortal Residence, but Lin Yi dragged him here instead.

That’s because he remembered that the place he had frequented for movies a few days ago was the Drunken Immortal Residence. It is closely associated with Intertwined Pleasure Pavilion, known for showing movies exclusively on the third floor.

It was evident from the name. One is Being Drunk and Happy, the other is the Drunken Immortal Residence. The objective is clear – they first make cultivators happy, then lure them into spending all their wealth.

Upon entering the tavern, Old Huang expertly placed an order, “Boss, first bring us two pots of Immortal Drunkenness, for dishes…” When he was about to place an order for food, he hesitated, “Little Lin, you invited me out for the drinks. So, the bill…”

“It’s on me. One pot of Immortal Drunkenness, one pot of Cloud Clear Tea, and whatever else you recommend.” Lin Yi said generously. The moment Zhang Yuan Cheng turned into ashes meant the start of his stable cultivation, and naturally it was something to celebrate.

“Ordering tea in a tavern…” Old Huang asked, puzzled.

“It’s for you, with the condition of your body that’s coughing all day, you should avoid drinking alcohol. I fear you may not last until I enter the Inner Sect,” Lin Yi said with a smile, then passed the Cloud Clear Tea that had just been served.

Whether it’s the Immortal Drunkenness or Cloud Clear Tea, both were from Liu Yun Sect’s Outer Sect. Besides planting Spirit Rice, there are also Outer Sect disciples responsible for brewing alcohol and making tea. They are all sold to any tavern or teahouse that opens in Qing Yun City.

“With my current health, even going to Intertwined Pleasures Pavilion is not a problem. Even Miss Xiao Qing complimented me on my stamina. A pot of alcohol won’t make a difference,” Old Huang slapped his chest, sounding a bit upset.

“Pfft, I know you are fit. But if you want to drink alcohol, this meal is on you,” Lin Yi burst into laughter and pointed at the dishes and alcohol on the table.

“Well, then let’s forget it…” Old Huang quickly waved his hands.

After finishing their meals and drinks, with a smile gracing his face, Old Huang intended to go to Intertwined Pleasure Pavilion along with Lin Yi, but Lin Yi refused without any hesitation. Joking aside, being a young man himself, he would be the prime target for spending at such places.

“As for you, you should stop visiting those common places. Xun Fang Pavilion has been seized by the Law Enforcement Hall, are you still attached to the past? Well, I’m leaving,” Old Huang said pointing at Lin Yi, before leaving the tavern.

Soon after Old Huang had left, a muscular man came over and sat opposite Lin Yi, “Immortal Master, sorry for the delay a few days ago. Everything has been taken care of, but Miss Xiao He constantly expresses her longing for you and will return once things settle down.”

Lin Yi smiled politely. He was, at most, thankful towards Xiao He and didn’t harbour any special feelings towards her. If she hadn’t been attacked because of him, he wouldn’t have come to the aid of any other woman in a similar situation.

“Let her live peacefully for the rest of her life. Brother Xu, you’ve worked hard. Now that certain people are dead, there’s no need for you to hide. What are your plans for the future?” Lin Yi asked. Now that Xun Fang Pavilion had been seized, there wouldn’t be more trouble coming his way.

“I wish to continue working for you, Immortal Master,” Xu Zhi Wu said with a bow.

“Very well, then continue selling the talismans,” Lin Yi agreed, nodding his head. Though his attack talismans had been approached by Li Yuan Qing, he could manufacture and sell supplementary talismans.

Afterward, the two of them left the tavern. In a secluded place, he handed Xu Zhi Wu ten Spirit Stones as a token of gratitude.

“Immortal Master, I don’t deserve this. I’m fully satisfied being able to serve you. Besides, you have saved my life,” Xu Zhi Wu quickly refused with a bow.

“You can use it to enhance your abilities. That is how you can be more useful to me,” Lin Yi insisted and proceeded to stuff the Spirit Stones into his hand. After that, he went to a nearby Talisman store, purchased some talisman crafting materials, and returned to Qing Yun City.

Despite earning another 150-plus Spirit Stones from Li Yuan Qing, it’s not enough to purchase a Body Refinement Technique. Therefore, he needs to continue his endeavor in making talismans.

On his way back to Qing Yun City, he consistently performed Wind Law and Gale Stepping, using both Spiritual Power and vitality to spur his speed.

Just as he reached his doorway in a mad rush, a pop-up window showed in front of him, “The host walks daily, covering a remarkable distance and has earned the title [The Path Lies Beneath Your Feet].”

Skimming the contents of the pop-up window, Lin Yi’s face brightened with joy. Finally, he acquired the running title, quite a challenge to acquire! He eagerly checked its effects, “Speed +10%, Evasion +10%, and a 5% chance of triggering a Sprint (this title’s speed can be increased up to 30%, lasting for 5 seconds and cooldown of 5 minutes).”

The effects of the title pleased him tremendously. Now, adding to [Meaningless Fight and Kill], he got two titles that could enhance his speed, with one having a sprint effect and the other with instant translocation, which was excellent.

The title seemed quite good, but considering the name, he couldn’t help but want to burst into a song. Now the path lies beneath his feet, but what about when he learns to fly with a sword in the future? Would the title turn into [The Path Lies in the Sky]?

Lin Yi looked at his title panel; his biggest problem was the number of titles he could simultaneously display was three. When he first started awakening titles, it seemed enough. However, as the number of titles had increased and multiple titles having the same effects, three was clearly inadequate.

However, he speculated that with the increase in his cultivation level, he should be able to unlock more title slots. Otherwise, only having three slots would be too shabby for his title Golden Finger.

Alongside, there was no backup title slot. If emergencies occurred, he wouldn’t be able to swap titles at a moment’s notice. If he had a backup title slot, that would be convenient. All his titles would be better organized – a set for running, a set for cultivation, and killing or committing arson…well, that’s unlikely.

He reckoned that this problem should also be resolved with the advancement in his cultivation levels, unlocking related functions..
