Chapter 164: The Human Emperor’s Cultivation Technique
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At that moment, Zhou Feng actually felt a sense of tranquility.
His originally restless heart had calmed down quite a bit.
‘There seems to be something wrong around here!’
Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and then saw an incense burner placed under the shade of a tree.
The passive Appraising Eye was triggered.
[Heart-Calming Incense Burner: A special top-grade soul artifact that assists in burning the Mind Concentration Incense.]
‘Top-grade soul artifact? This incense burner is a top-grade soul artifact? And it only helps the Mind Concentration Incense burn!?’
Zhou Feng instantly felt the difference in the world. This Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was way too generous!
He entered the courtyard and noticed incense burners almost every once in a while.
From the looks of it, Zhou Feng felt that having a soul artifact was just that.
Zhou Feng was brought to a small room, where an old man was already waiting for him. “Please take out the Hive Stone and have a look!”
He took out the Hive Stone without hesitation.
After the appraisal, it was confirmed that this was indeed a Hive Stone.
“Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion is willing to purchase this Hive Stone for 150,000 Spirit Stones. What do you think?”
‘150,000 Spirit Stones? That much!?’
It seemed that he had only spent a few hundred Spirit Stones to purchase this Hive Stone!
How many times had this price increased?
“I have no objections!” Zhou Feng immediately nodded in agreement, but he didn’t lose his composure too much.
Compared to Spirit Stones, he valued more Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.
“Right! I wonder if there are any Purple Mansion cultivation techniques for sale here?” Zhou Feng directly raised the question in his heart.
The old man in front of him seemed to be somewhat surprised.
“Purple Mansion cultivation techniques? Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion naturally has them…
“But are you sure you want them? Cultivation techniques that involve the Purple Mansion realm are practically the secrets of every clan. Thus, our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion only has ancient cultivation techniques.”
This old man warned Zhou Feng.
“Ancient times?”
Zhou Feng frowned because he was extremely lacking in this aspect of knowledge. He didn’t know what ancient cultivation techniques signified.
It was as if the old man could see the puzzlement in his heart, so he began to explain with extreme patience.
The Purple Mansion cultivation techniques were fundamental to each clan.
This was because the path of cultivation would be established from the point of condensing one’s soul. Once it was established, it would be challenging to change it.
Thus, it was imperative for ordinary people to choose the cultivation technique of the Purple Mansion realm.
The various sects and clans would not allow their own Purple Mansion cultivation techniques to be leaked.
As for vagabond cultivators, they could only set their sights on the ancient cultivation techniques if they wanted to continue improving.
The ancient cultivation techniques were synonymous with brutality and violence.
This world was different from most fantasy worlds. It wasn’t just the ancient cultivation techniques that were powerful.
On the contrary, the more ancient the cultivation technique was, the more flaws it had. Its power was far inferior to the current cultivation techniques.
Countless generations of ancestors had perfected the current cultivation techniques.
And with the development of various formations and techniques, the Spiritual Qi of the current era was also becoming more and more abundant.
The cultivation techniques of the ancient era were already outdated.
The cultivation techniques of the former Human Emperor might not even be as good as the core cultivation techniques of a large-scale sect.
This was the progress of the entire cultivation civilization. This kind of progress was paved by countless sages as stepping stones.
However, it was precisely because of this that Zhou Feng had the opportunity to obtain Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.
“So it’s like this?”
After understanding all of this, Zhou Feng sank into deep thought.
“Even if one successfully cultivates the ancient cultivation techniques, it is very likely to cause damage to the body because of their crudeness and many flaws.
“After all, these cultivation techniques were originally created to fight against the Demon race, so they are all simple and crude.”
The old man was still talking about the shortcomings of the ancient cultivation techniques.
It seemed like he was trying to persuade Zhou Feng to give up.
Unexpectedly, he changed the topic in the next second.
“However, the ancient cultivation techniques are not completely useless.
“On the contrary, because they originated from the ancient times, the ancestors of the human race did not have so many restrictions. Those cultivation techniques were very ambitious…”
The old man began to talk endlessly about the benefits of cultivation techniques from the ancient times.
He even brought up the legendary Human Emperor.
Human Emperor! This title was not something that an ordinary person could bear.
Only the strongest person in the entire human race was qualified to be called a Human Emperor.
Unfortunately, the title of Human Emperor had not been used by anyone for a long time.
‘The cultivation technique of the Human Emperor?’
Just this sentence had struck a chord in Zhou Feng’s heart.
‘The Human Emperor’s cultivation technique, huh? I don’t seem to be able to obtain any other cultivation techniques in my current situation!’
Zhou Feng began to think about it.
Given his circumstances, if he wanted to obtain the Purple Mansion cultivation techniques, other than this ancient cultivation technique, he didn’t seem to have any other choice.
That was unless he joined a sect. Still, joining a sect didn’t mean that he would obtain a Purple Mansion cultivation technique.
This meant that he would have to work for the sect for at least 10 years before having a chance.
Asking him to work for someone else for more than 10 years? What a joke!
‘I can still earn Spirit Stones! I still have a lot of time anyway!’ Zhou Feng gradually made up his mind.
He was only 20 years old right now, and he had 20 years more lifespan than an ordinary person due to his passive Longevity.
He still had a lot of time to waste. Things like Spirit Stones could still be earned.
It seemed like Zhou Feng had already made up his mind, so the old man said with a smile on his face, “The Human Emperor Scripture only costs 1,000,000 Spirit Stones, and this is only a 50% discount because of the Hive Stone you just sold!”
‘1,000,000 Spirit Stones? And a 50% discount!?’
“After all, this is the cultivation technique of the former Human Emperor. Although the concept is no longer in line with our times, the word ‘Human Emperor’ has proven its value!”
The old man opened his mouth in advance, silencing Zhou Feng.
That’s right! The word ‘Human Emperor’ alone was enough to prove its value.
“I don’t have enough Spirit Stones now. Do you accept pills?”
“Pills? Of course! After all, pills are rare items. Our Heavenly Treasure Pavilion will evaluate them!”
The old man still had a smile on his face.
“Cough, cough… I haven’t refined the pills yet. I don’t know what kind of pills are more valuable! I’m talking about Grade-1 pills!”
Zhou Feng coughed lightly and began to ask what was the most valuable among Grade-1 pills.
“Oh? Your esteemed self is also a Pill Master! If that’s the case, perhaps this price can still be negotiated!”
When the old man heard that Zhou Feng was a Pill Master, his attitude instantly changed.
The Pill Master profession was indeed the most sought-after. He received preferential treatment here!
This was something that Zhou Feng hadn’t thought of before.
