Star Sky Professional-Chapter 661 - 559 Immortality

Fang Xing recalls the druid knowledge he acquired.

Level 2 druid can gain the ability of ’Wilderness Transformation,’ transforming into a small animal!

Of course, only small animals can be transformed, not insects or large categories.

To become an insect or a giant, according to Fang Xing’s inheritance, a special nature ritual must be performed to gain the specialty of [Super Mini Transformation] or [Super Giant Transformation].

But small animals are already sufficient.

Whether it’s a bird, a mouse, or a fish... all can allow him to escape the valley smoothly!

"And beyond the valley is a wilderness dense forest... the forest is the druid’s domain... the unique natural affinity allows me to ’Traceless in the Forest,’ leaving no trace behind..."

"But for the druid to grow to level 2, can I reach it within a month?"

This is the only matter of concern.

With a heavy heart, Fang Xing slowly fell asleep.

The next day, as usual, was breakfast and then to the papermaking workshop...

This level of hard work surprised even Peach Red.

After all, they only need to submit ten sheets of blood paper a month, and many papermen work one day and rest for two, nourishing their body.

But Fang Xing only responded with a bitter smile, making Peach Red think she guessed the answer, that he was afraid of being beaten by the steward’s disciples, so he wanted to complete the quota as soon as possible.

...

Days passed in a flash.

Fang Xing found Peach Red, handing over two sheets of blood paper.

Peach Red took them blankly: "You wouldn’t be working so hard for me, would you? Listen to me, life is your own, if you wear it down, it’s truly gone..."

"No... I just want to visit the market early and stockpile some supplies..."

Fang Xing waved his hand, subconsciously glancing at the attribute panel:

[Age: 16/20]

’Next I mustn’t make any more paper, or I’ll really die young...’

Upon hearing this explanation, Peach Red seemed relieved, patting her chest: "Going to the market is also good..."

She looked around, lowering her voice: "Remember to hide the blood paper well, Xing San’s group loves stealing, and if they can’t steal, they’ll rob..."

Fang Xing furrowed his brow, recalling some unpleasant memories: "Why don’t the steward’s disciples manage this..."

"Heh... Xing San’s major share is surely submitted to the steward’s disciples, who would care?"

Peach Red scoffed: "I’ve seen through it; the blood paper we submit is for the sect... what Xing San offers is his own, if it were you, what would you choose?"

Fang Xing listened and fell silent.

He examined Peach Red carefully; though only a few days passed, druid perception clearly allowed him to feel the woman’s weakness; strands of gray could already be seen in her hair: "Avoiding the first day can’t avoid the fifteenth... we don’t know how many months we can still endure..."

"This world..." Peach Red sighed softly, biting her teeth, her eyes flowing: "You, the tender little master, won’t die a virgin, will you?"

"Of course not."

Fang Xing replied decisively, clearly seeing a trace of disappointment on Peach Red’s face.

...

The Valley Market claims to be opened by itinerant traders, but in reality, it’s owned by Blood Shadow Sect disciples.

At dusk, a layer of mist suddenly rose on an open space, forming into walls of fog.

At the entrance, there were two papermen.

These papermen were made rather crudely, resembling ancient burial dolls.

They appeared as boys and girls, with the boy innocent-looking, the girl adorable, both had double topknots, and face painted with bright red blush.

Currently standing left and right, like gate guardians at the market entrance, each holding a mourning staff.

On the mourning staff, one side reads ’Final payment in cash,’ the other ’No credit granted.’

’There’s a strange, ominous feeling... it seems not like entering a market, but a burial ground.’

Fang Xing passed by the two papermen, his expression suddenly alert.

His keen perception told him that these two papermen were anything but simple; their seemingly fragile bodies might be harder than steel.

If they went berserk, killing a valley full of papermen wouldn’t be much trouble.

’Is this the strength of the guards at the valley entrance?’

He entered the market and saw scattered stalls, set up quite simply.

Erven some papermen had set up stalls, interacting and trading with each other.

Most trades involved blood paper, though bartering was also common.

"Come and see, supreme divine martial arts for mortals, only one sheet of blood paper per book!"

"Blood Nourishing Powder, can bolster blood and qi..."

"Divine weapons, tools, axes, and hooks, needles, and thread... everything is available..."

...

Fang Xing didn’t glance sideways, merely passed by.

’Buying mortal martial arts here is a trap; the people with depleted blood and qi trying to cultivate martial arts must have a death wish.’

’But some elixirs for health can at least replenish some vital essence...’

He walked at a leisurely pace and stopped in front of a stall.

"Hey there, young brother, interested in Qi Sensing Techniques?"

The stall owner saw Fang Xing and immediately got intrigued: "The introductory cultivation techniques we first received only allow sensing of eighteen kinds of blood Qi. If you haven’t been able to cultivate successfully, it might just be a lack of talent for our sect’s techniques, but that doesn’t mean you lack talent for other techniques... I have collected introductory techniques from the ten major sects beyond our world, all-encompassing and cheap..."

"Once you successfully cultivate, you can definitely advance to become an Outer Sect Disciple and shed this slave status..."

He spoke eloquently, oblivious to how many Papermen he’d already fooled.

"Look, this is the ’Golden Body Qi Sensing Technique’ from the Corpse Chasing Sect..."

"And there’s the ’Sword Control Technique’ from the Feijian Sect..."

"A multitude of choices, there’s bound to be one that suits you, young brother."

Fang Xing looked through them one by one and picked up a paper book with a green cover.

"Oh? Young brother, you truly have a discerning eye, that’s the secret of Qingmu Ridge — ’Green Wood Skill’!"

The stall owner, a youth in his thirties with remarkable eloquence, was spinning an ordinary wood-elemental introductory technique as if it were something unparalleled.

"How much?"

Fang Xing could only flip through the first two pages, and after a careful look, asked.

"Six blood papers!"

The stall owner laughed: "Not expensive at all..."

"That’s not expensive?"

Fang Xing widened his eyes: "Moreover... it’s just a First Level Qi Sensing technique."

"Hehe!"

The young stall owner suddenly let out a cold laugh, his expression turning stern: "Qi Sensing has nine levels, each a lofty challenge, Qi Sensing, Qi Refinement, Qi Transformation... every level is a great pass. You Papermen, breaking through the first level and truly sensing ’Qi’ is already remarkable, what more could you wish for?"

Fang Xing’s expression remained unchanged.

If it were an ordinary Paperman, they would probably shrink back and agree at this point.

But he obviously wouldn’t be frightened, what’s more... he’s savvy enough to know there are rules in this market.

And this stall owner evidently holds a slightly higher position than him in the Blood Shadow Sect, yet lacks the strength and qualifications to overturn the chessboard.

"But I only have four blood papers."

"I don’t believe you, well, I’ll take a step back... five blood papers, nothing less." As expected, the stall youth’s resolve broke in the next second, transforming from a high-and-mighty devil cultivator to a shrewd merchant, haggling with Fang Xing.

After a moment.

An expression of helplessness appeared on his face: "Fine, fine... five blood papers it is. I’ll also give you a set of ’Paper Folding Secret Techniques’, which are real spells! As long as you can make the most basic ’Paper Crane’, I’ll buy it back for two blood papers here, what do you think?"

Fang Xing nodded, took out five blood papers, and exchanged them for two secret books, carefully tucking them into his bosom before swiftly leaving.

"Hehe..."

The youth watched his departing back, but let out a cold laugh, muttering to himself: ’This Paper Folding Secret Technique is one of the rare secret techniques that mortals can practice, but if any mortal wishes to learn a Daoist Technique, they naturally need to pay a price... next time, I probably won’t see this guy again, if I do, then isn’t it even better? I can make a big profit again...’

As for him breaking through First Level of Qi Sensing?

That’s almost impossible, after all, the world of Daoist Techniques is unified, someone who can’t master the Blood Shadow Sect techniques likely doesn’t have much talent in other areas either.

Even if he actually succeeds in cultivation, a cultivator who’s not from the direct lineage would only become a more valuable slave...

...

Late at night.

Fang Xing habitually fed a few sparrows and mice... letting them keep watch outside.

He sat cross-legged in the wooden house, with the books ’Green Wood Skill’ and ’Paper Folding Secret Techniques’ placed in front of him.

He first put aside the Paper Folding Secret Techniques and opened ’Green Wood Skill’.

"Nine levels of Qi Sensing, the First Level ’Qi Sensing’, is of utmost importance!"

"In the world, there are 129,600 kinds of Qi, but only very few can be sensed, absorbed, and cultivated by cultivators ..."

"Green Wood Skill primarily senses nine kinds of ’Qi’, the highest quality is ’Green Radiance Qi’, following is ’Nine Heavens Qi’, then ’Clear Spirit Qi’ ... the ninth kind is ’Plant Essence Qi’..."

Fang Xing looked at the introductory visualization and hand seal... this is actually a series of auxiliary means to enhance one’s sensing ability.

If he had enough talent, he could actually skip it.

He slightly closed his eyes, he could feel the green light dots swirling around him, seemingly inexhaustible and endless.

"It’s Plant Essence Qi... after all, I’m a Druid with a Natural Affinity... it’s equivalent to directly increasing my Wood Element talent."

He discerningly categorized these green light dots into nine types.

"I can sense all nine kinds of Qi... this should count as pretty good talent, right?"

"Then the second step is absorption... whenever cultivation is Perfect, I can break through to the Second Level ’Qi Refinement’, entering the second level of Qi Sensing, but alas, I don’t have the cultivation technique..."

Fang Xing carefully sensed the nine different green light dots: "Although I can sense Green Radiance Qi, in terms of compatibility, it seems Plant Essence Qi is still the best... Qi Sensing, Qi Sensing, it’s mainly about finding the Qi with the best compatibility. It seems I have a perfect fit with Plant Essence Qi, is this because Druids have a plant domain?"

Upon this thought, he stopped hesitating and absorbed the Plant Essence Qi from the Void.

Rumble!

Countless Plant Essence Qi, carrying a sense of closeness and reliance, clustered around him and were continuously absorbed by his skin.

[You have conducted a cultivation session and received the ’Natural Baptism’! You gain some ’Natural Knowledge’!]

A prompt emerged on the attribute bar.

Fang Xing knew that his Druid experience had increased...
