"All these years... have you been looking for me?"

The old beggar was originally filled with shock, but hearing his words, he became speechless.

Rolling his eyes, he said, "I just cheated you out of ten bucks back then... is it really necessary to look for me all these years? Now you’re so capable, can’t you be a bit more forgiving... In my time as a beggar, I’ve cheated at least eighty to a hundred thousand people, but I’ve never met anyone as petty as you. Hold on, I’ll repay your ten bucks right now."

As he said this, he opened his snakeskin bag.

And pulled out a huge pile of red bills.

He rummaged through it for quite a while...

He said, "Sorry, no change. Give me a moment, I’ll buy something to break it."

"I’m looking for you, and it has nothing to do with those ten bucks."

Xu Lingjun said, "Zhou Tong, do you know who I am?"

That’s right, the beggar in front of him was the grandmaster-uncle of the Cuowu Sect, Zhou Tong!

Also, when Xu Lingjun joined the Cuowu Sect, he was nominally his master...

Although everyone knew it was fake at the time, they all thought he was dead.

But who would have thought...

He was actually alive and not just alive, but living quite comfortably.

In fact, even in the information given to him by Han Xu Yang, only the name Zhou Tong was recorded.

But the secret of his identity had long been hidden...

This was the Empire’s respect for a powerful being at the pinnacle of human strength!

It seems for this reason, Sun Bumie and the others presumed their grandmaster-uncle was dead.

The old beggar said, "Who are you? Sorry, but I have no interest in the leeks I’ve cut."

Xu Lingjun said, "My surname is Xu, Xu Lingjun."

The old beggar exclaimed, "Commander in Chief of the Nine Major Military Regions of the Polar Star Battlefield? The one who stole my disciple’s identity?"

He remembered very clearly.

Commander in Chief of the Nine Major Military Regions, Xu Lingjun, was also a Supreme Elder of the Cuowu Sect.

Zhou Tong’s personally closed-door disciple.

Although he couldn’t remember when he ever took on a disciple...

Xu Lingjun amusingly said, "Look at what you said, didn’t you sell me a cultivation technique? Doesn’t that count as the grace of imparting skills?"

"But that was fake, you brat paid ten bucks to buy a title of Supreme Elder from me, and now you have the nerve to settle accounts?"

"Was it really fake?"

Xu Lingjun raised his hand and clenched his fist.

A punch aimed directly at Zhou Tong.

With this punch thrown...

The force was restrained, but internally, boundless Qi blood surged. Though it was only one punch, it carried the momentum of Mount Tai collapsing.

Zhou Tong’s expression changed, just as he was about to dodge, he found himself instantly entangled by countless strands of spiritual energy... In the brief moment he was stunned, he lost the opportunity.

He could only raise his palm and meet Xu Lingjun’s fist head-on with all his might.

A dull thunderous sound.

Not particularly deafening, but it spread like the rumble of an earth dragon turning over, causing the large town to tremble.

Damn, this kid has some strength!

Zhou Tong felt as if he had been hit by an ancient Titan. He flew quite far before finally coming to a stop, shouting in surprise, "Xu Lingjun, this is a bustling market, do you really want to settle old scores with me here?"

He felt a little wronged.

I only cheated you out of ten bucks, and you used my name to take an elder position in this sect. Who’s getting the better deal here? Do you have to hold onto this so tightly?

Xu Lingjun said, "I just wanted to ask if you found this fist force familiar?"

"This..."

Zhou Tong was suddenly stunned, looking at Xu Lingjun in shock. The boundless swirling Qi blood was clearly similar to what he had created in the "Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique"...

He exclaimed, "How is that possible, you actually mastered it from a fake cultivation technique?"

"Since it’s a God Demon Level Technique, it’s reasonable for the progress speed to be faster, right? As for the many problems within the technique, wouldn’t a bit of modification solve them..."

Xu Lingjun spoke with cool composure.

Hearing this almost made Zhou Tong crush the snakeskin bag in his hand.

He said in astonishment, "So you’ve actually cultivated... the ’Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique’?"

Xu Lingjun nodded.

"The ’Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique’ is actually so miraculous?"

"The technique I’m cultivating now only shares the name with yours, I have altered all its contents."

Xu Lingjun asked, "By the way, do you have any more cultivation techniques? Fifty bucks each, I’ll take them all."

"You just called me a swindler... and said I was price-gouging..."

"I’m just sacrificing myself for the greater good!"

Xu Lingjun thought clearly.

Although these techniques, even after acquiring a Talent Source, he might not be able to cultivate again.

But considering it’s the painstaking effort of a Creation Realm grandmaster, at least it’s affordable. In time, he could choose the best among them to learn, and modify those that aren’t suitable.

Incidentally, he could also comprehend several different attributes of Immortal Techniques as a side task, all without spending much Source Value.

After all, although the "Infinite Immortal Technique" is miraculous, not everyone can cultivate the same technique... even games have warriors, mages, and priests.

"You said it!"

Zhou Tong directly presented a large stack of cultivation techniques.

He said, "Brat, fifty each... no haggling, no regrets..."

Xu Lingjun took the top two books, surprised, "Golden Bottle Plum? The Wolf of the West Chamber?"

"These don’t count."
