Chapter 87: Wind Abyss Soul-Forging Technique

Song Qingming waved his hand at Old Daoist Chen and did not take the spirit talisman of not low value in his hand. Instead, he took out a small blue formation flag from his storage bag.

After casting a spell on the formation flag in his hand, the blue formation flag flashed with spiritual light and flew rapidly to the door of the room. Afterward, the entire room was suddenly wrapped in a semi-transparent white light, instantly forming a formation that isolated the sounds inside and outside the house.

Seeing this situation, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on Old Daoist Chen's face. He stood up and shouted loudly at Song Qingming: "What does your Excellency mean? Even if the old Daoist was somewhat sorry to you that day, it was not intentional. Today, is it possible that you still want to kill people and seize treasures in the market?"

"Sigh, Old Senior Chen, don't misunderstand. Although I was dragged down by you back then and almost died in the deep mountains, I am not an unreasonable person. Naturally, I know that this matter was not mainly your fault. Old Senior Chen, rest assured, I am absolutely not that kind of narrow-minded person. This is just a magic formation I refined, which can only isolate sound and spiritual sense and has no other function. Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist."

After Old Daoist Chen finished listening, he slowly sat down again. However, he still had not completely let go of his guard against Song Qingming and always had one hand on the storage bag at his waist.

After Old Daoist Chen sat down, Song Qingming continued: "Fellow Daoist came to me this time to sell a second-tier Green Sandalwood Herb, right?"

Before Song Qingming entered the door, he had already learned from Wang Cheng that Old Daoist Chen came to the shop to sell a second-tier spirit herb. Because Wang Cheng did not know much about second-tier spirit herbs, he had to invite Song Qingming to confirm it.

"That's right. I want to use this spirit herb to exchange for some elixirs. I have already looked for two shops, and no one recognized it. I didn't expect Little Friend Song to be able to recognize it." Hearing Song Qingming mention the spirit herb he had just taken out in the front hall, and that he truly wanted to talk business with him, Old Daoist Chen slowly let go of his guard and took out the spirit herb on his body.

Song Qingming took the Green Sandalwood Herb and looked at it carefully, then said: "Qinghe Market is a small market after all, and spirit items above the second tier rarely appear. It is understandable that others did not recognize this second-tier spirit herb of yours immediately.

The medicinal age of this spirit herb has reached two hundred years, and it is indeed a second-tier spirit herb. According to the price of acquiring second-tier spirit herbs in our Qinghe Market, this Green Sandalwood Herb is worth one hundred spirit stones. If Fellow Daoist thinks this price is okay, this shop can accept this spirit herb. Fellow Daoist can also look at what spirit elixirs you need in the shop."

After finishing, Song Qingming took out a bag of spirit stones and placed it on the table between the two.

Old Daoist Chen took the bag and looked at it. Seeing the hundred spirit stones shining with golden light in the bag, he accepted them with a happy face.

"Little Friend Song is truly a straightforward person. Then it is settled. If there is nothing else, the old Daoist will go outside to see if there are any elixirs I need."

Old Daoist Chen had just stood up and wanted to leave here, but Song Qingming reached out and stopped him.

"Old Senior, wait a moment. I still have a business I want to talk about with Fellow Daoist. However, before that, there is one thing I want to ask Fellow Daoist first."

Old Daoist Chen stopped his footsteps and said with a smile: "Little Friend Song, please speak."

After reaching the first transaction, Old Daoist Chen's attitude was much better than just now.

"When I first met Fellow Daoist back then, I was hiding on a big tree twenty zhang away from you. I was confident that I did not reveal any obvious flaws. Fellow Daoist Chen had not broken through to the late stage of Qi Condensation back then either. I don't know how you discovered me."

Old Daoist Chen heard this, narrowed his eyes, recalled it in his heart, and then said with a smile: "Actually, it's not worth mentioning. This is because the old man had a fortuitous encounter and cultivated a technique that can strengthen a cultivator's spiritual sense. My spiritual sense exceeds that of ordinary cultivators of the same tier, which is why I discovered you in advance and found your hiding position."

"Oh, so that's how it is. I have been looking for spiritual sense-type cultivation techniques for these few years. I don't know if Fellow Daoist can sell this cultivation technique to me?"

When Old Daoist Chen found his hiding position back then, Song Qingming was somewhat puzzled, but he had always been thinking about why this old man found his hiding position. It was not until he went to Guiyun Market and came into contact with puppet techniques that he remembered that there were some cultivation techniques in the cultivation world that could strengthen a cultivator's spiritual sense, and he slowly guessed the reason why this old man found his hiding position back then.

The reason he opened his mouth to ask about this matter just now was to confirm his guess. Sure enough, this old man, as he thought, had cultivated spiritual sense-type cultivation techniques.

"Can I ask first, Little Friend, why you want to cultivate this kind of cultivation technique?" Old Daoist Chen heard that Song Qingming was interested in the cultivation techniques of this type on him, and he was also somewhat surprised, asking somewhat cautiously.

It is not simple to cultivate spiritual sense-type cultivation techniques. After cultivation, it only has some auxiliary effects in battle and is of no use for a cultivator to improve their own cultivation.

The reason Old Daoist Chen cultivated this technique was also because he had reached this age, and his cultivation had no room for progress, so he had time to study this technique. It is a bit strange that a young cultivator like Song Qingming wants to cultivate spiritual sense techniques wholeheartedly.

Song Qingming seemed to have expected that Old Daoist Chen would ask this question, so he raised his hand and released the Thunder Tiger puppet beast on his body.

"So it turns out that Fellow Daoist wants to strengthen the puppet technique on your body. No wonder you want to cultivate spiritual sense cultivation techniques."

Seeing this puppet beast, Old Daoist Chen, who had cultivated for many years, soon understood it all at once, revealed an "I see" expression, and nodded at Song Qingming with a smile.

"A few years ago, I was lucky enough to obtain a puppet beast outside. After refining it, I discovered that my spiritual sense was not enough, and I have been unable to control this puppet beast well in battle for a long time. That is why I wanted to find a spiritual sense cultivation technique for myself." After Song Qingming finished speaking, he put the puppet beast away again.

Old Daoist Chen stroked his long beard slightly and said slowly: "The cultivation technique in my hand is called 'Wind Abyss Soul-Forging Technique'. However, this is a cultivation technique that is already incomplete. It was discovered by the old man when I was with someone in a cave dwelling of a senior cultivator back then. Fellow Daoist can also be considered a person with a predestined relationship with the old man. If you don't dislike it, then take it. The old Daoist doesn't need spirit stones, just give me two more bottles of mid-grade elixirs that increase cultivation." Afterward, Old Daoist Chen rummaged through his storage bag, took out a jade slip, and handed it to Song Qingming.

Song Qingming picked up the jade slip and stuck it to his forehead. His spiritual sense soon entered the jade slip. This cultivation technique was indeed somewhat incomplete as Old Daoist Chen said. The cultivation technique seemed to only have the first part, but for him now, cultivation was still enough. He was not trying to specialize in this kind of spiritual sense-type cultivation technique. As long as it could barely be used, it would allow him to exert the full power of the puppet beast in his hand.

After checking that the cultivation technique Old Daoist Chen took out was correct, Song Qingming put away the jade slip, then withdrew the formation he had arranged in the room, and called a shop assistant to take two bottles of elixirs for Old Daoist Chen.

The reason Song Qingming wasted time arranging this formation just now was naturally not to deal with Old Daoist Chen, but just because he did not want too many people to know that he wanted to cultivate spiritual sense cultivation techniques, and he brought a deterrent to Old Daoist Chen so that he could successfully talk about the next transaction.

"Little Friend Song, this cultivation technique is somewhat incomplete. Fellow Daoist must also be cautious in cultivation and must not be impatient for success. Here are some insights from the old Daoist when I was cultivating, and I will give them to you together." Old Daoist Chen put away the elixirs with satisfaction, handed a manual to Song Qingming, and did not forget to remind him before leaving.

After Song Qingming put away this manual, he bowed to Old Daoist Chen to express his gratitude. Finally, he personally sent him to the door and told him that if he had any spirit items in the future, he could directly bring them here to find him, and he guaranteed that he would not let him suffer a loss.
