Chapter 87: Breath-Restraining Spirit Technique
On the way back to the inner city, people were coming and going.
Two bodyguards followed behind, step by step, protecting Luo Chen's safety with all their might.
That meeting earlier had truly made them hold their breath, all the way to their throats.
Little did they know, Luo Chen, who was walking with dragon-like steps in front, was the one who had finally let out a huge sigh of relief in his heart.
The sword hanging over his head had finally loosened by an inch today!
Today's meeting with Gao Tingyuan was unexpected, yet reasonable.
Ever since Luo Chen planned to see off Fu Xiuxiu, Old Man Chen, and the others, he had already foreseen this matter and had secretly made several contingency plans for it.
From his demeanor to his tone of voice, and when to be soft and when to be hard.
Everything appeared full of loopholes, yet reasonable!
Back when he learned from Wang Yuan that Gao Tingyuan's Dantian was injured and his Qi sea was broken, he knew that this day would come sooner or later.
But he didn't want the two to meet when he was forced into a corner.
Therefore, he had this bold move of "going towards the tiger mountain."
It looked like he was invited up, but wasn't it Luo Chen who walked there actively?
Of course, Luo Chen had never communicated directly with Gao Tingyuan, so he didn't know what kind of personality the other party had.
Even though he had inquired about it from others from time to time.
But now that the other party's Dao path was cut off, it was hard to say if his personality would become more extreme.
Therefore, for today's trip, he had made several backups.
First, before coming to Lancang Wharf, he had pretended to report to Elder Sikong Shoujia casually.
If Elder Sikong Shoujia knew, it meant that the Foundation Establishment cultivator Hearing Mi Shuhua knew.
With his current precious status in Hearing Mi Shuhua's heart, the other party absolutely wouldn't allow him to make a mistake.
Even if Gao Tingyuan wanted to forcibly grab him down, Hearing Mi Shuhua would definitely come forward immediately to protect him.
Second, he went to see Wang Yuan the first time he arrived here.
If Gao Tingyuan started to attack regardless of anything at the Qingjiang Restaurant, Wang Yuan would also arrive very quickly.
Luo Chen had a relatively "blind" trust in his big brother.
Without Foundation Establishment, there should be no one in the Dahe Market who could be Wang Yuan's opponent in both magic and body cultivation.
On the Dao Discussion Platform's Heaven's Pride List, the name of the number one Qi Refining cultivator in the Dahe Market was still Wang Yuan.
Of course, Luo Chen didn't pin all his hopes on others.
Having fought Qin Liangchen so many times, he was already very familiar with the attack methods of late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.
If he was on guard at all times, even if the other party suddenly attacked, he had the confidence to survive temporarily.
In terms of attack, he might be lacking, with only a Great Perfection Fireball Technique to serve as a facade.
However, when it came to running away?
Luo Chen dared to say he was number one; other Qi Refining cultivators wouldn't dare to say they were number two.
Grandmaster-level Carefree Travel, Grandmaster-level Wind-Riding Technique, plus the high-grade magic artifact Cloud-Stepping Boots.
If he wanted to leave, Gao Tingyuan absolutely couldn't keep him.
With all these considerations, he dared to keep the appointment.
As for whether Gao Tingyuan would really believe it, Luo Chen didn't care anymore.
To put it bluntly, he was different now; he was no longer a loose cultivator with no one to rely on.
He was the Hall Master of the Poshan Gang Alchemy Hall.
In the future, he would bring a steady stream of profits to the Poshan Gang.
As far as the present was concerned, the Poshan Gang had also invested a lot of resources in him.
Before those resource costs were recovered, whoever dared to touch him would be an enemy of Hearing Mi Shuhua and an enemy of the Poshan Gang!
"With an organization, I walk with the wind now!"
At the city gate, Luo Chen smiled and waved goodbye to the two bodyguards.
They should be in a hurry to see Hearing Mi Shuhua and report today's events one by one!
Go early!
This kind of thing still needed a big shot to handle the tail for him to truly feel at ease.
"The Gao brothers?"
Hearing Mi Shuhua muttered and asked casually: "In your opinion, was it done by Luo Chen?"
Thinking of the mouthful of wine Luo Chen spat out, Liu Qiang hesitated.
Zhou Yuanli had already opened his mouth, "That doesn't matter."
"Heh, yes, that doesn't matter; it's just the life or death of a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator," Hearing Mi Shuhua smiled slightly, slowly sipping the hot tea in his cup.
After swallowing the spirit tea, he frowned again.
"However, it's better not to have this kind of thing happen again."
He had already made a decision to give Wang Hai-chao a greeting and let him manage his subordinates well.
The two gangs had made such a scene before, and now the relationship had finally eased.
He had obtained a waterway, but he wasn't just eating without spitting out; he had reached some other cooperation with Wang Hai-chao.
In the future, the two gangs would only get sweeter and sweeter.
If the financial path was cut off because of Gao Tingyuan, then no one would look good.
"You two, be careful with your protection work in the future."
"This is a sound transmission jade pendant, which contains a strand of my spirit sense. If you encounter an irresistible enemy, activate it immediately to notify me."
"Luo Chen must not be lost!"
Zhou Yuanli nodded heavily and received the jade pendant carefully.
Closing the door, boiling spring water, and brewing a pot of bitter tea.
Luo Chen sat at the desk with ease and took out the thing Old Man Chen had stuffed into his hand before leaving.
A piece of gauze, light gray and transparent, light as nothing.
If you don't look closely, it even makes people ignore its existence.
"That old man is stingy all his life, but he rarely gave me a gift before leaving."
"I have to see what it is."
Luo Chen smiled and spread out the gauze; it was plain, with only some strange patterns.
Some looked like runes on a talisman, but they were similar yet different.
"A talisman drawn on cloth?"
Luo Chen was strange and subconsciously injected a strand of spirit power.
Under the stimulation of spirit power, those strange patterns squirmed like earthworms.
At the same time, a formula for spirit power operation came into view.
Luo Chen was surprised and read it carefully.
About half an incense stick later, Luo Chen put down the gray gauze with a complex expression.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you have given me your means of making a living."
On the cloth, a spell called the Breath-Restraining Spirit Technique was recorded.
After learning it, when cast, it can allow a cultivator to restrain their own aura.
This aura is not just human body odor, but also thick blood energy, spirit power fluctuations, etc.
If the spell is mastered, one can even adjust spirit power fluctuations at will and conceal one's own realm.
The degree of this concealment can only be seen through by someone who is a whole major realm higher.
Cultivators of the same level, even if they cast the Spirit Eye Technique, cannot detect his specific realm based on spirit power fluctuations.
It can be said that if the Breath-Restraining Spirit Technique is mastered, it is extremely convenient whether getting along with people or going up the mountain and down the river.
Luo Chen was actually no stranger to this spell.
Because the Breath-Restraining Talismans that Old Man Chen usually sold were derived from this spell.
It was just that Old Man Chen's spell talent was average, and after many years of hard practice, he only reached the small success level.
Precisely because of this, the Breath-Restraining Talismans he drew could only reach the level of concealing blood energy, odor, and a small amount of spirit power fluctuations.
If Old Man Chen had mastered the Breath-Restraining Spirit Technique, the selling price of the Breath-Restraining Talismans he drew could at least double!
His talent was not good, but Luo Chen's spell talent was very good.
He had entered the entry level of several first-tier spells purely by himself, without any help from achievement points.
Moreover, with the system's blessing.
Luo Chen could completely cultivate this Breath-Restraining Spirit Technique to the mastery level, or even be better than the master.
"It's a big gift, and it wasn't in vain that I invited you to that meal at the Zhong Ding family."
Luo Chen smiled slightly and spread out the gray gauze again.
The formulas on it were recited silently in his mind over and over again.
After he was familiar with it, he tried to get started.
"First, outside the Dantian, conclude a spirit power seed..." ===== CHAPTER 88 =====
"First, outside of the dantian, condense a seed of spiritual power..."
