early morning.
After a simple breakfast, Jiang Yan wasted no time and went to the backyard of the inn, where he found the "black-hearted" shopkeeper who was directing several waiters to work.
"You...what are you going to do?"
Seeing Jiang Yan, before he could express his purpose, the brawny shopkeeper spoke first, with a fearful expression on his face. He unconsciously wiped his nose that was crooked last night and was still bruised and swollen with the back of his hand.
It's not me who beat you, why are you so scared... Jiang Yan was angry and funny when he saw the shopkeeper behaving like this, so he simply adjusted his expression to make himself look cold and ruthless.
His eyes then became "indifferent" and his voice said without any fluctuation:
"follow me.
"I have something to ask you!"
The two came to the ground floor of the inn. Jiang Yan maintained his "style" and did not make any pleasantries. He asked in a condescending tone:
"How can I obtain high-level skills in Nanyan City?"
At this point, he added:
"I'm a foreigner. I just arrived in Nanyan City. I don't know much about the situation here. Please tell me all the information you know. Well, try to be as detailed as possible."
Of course I know you are a foreigner, otherwise you wouldn’t have done that last night. The brawny shopkeeper muttered in his heart, while maintaining the necessary humility on the surface:
"Guest, I want to know which level of high-level skills you are referring to?"
He smiled bitterly and explained:
"You know, high-level skills are just a general term, and they don't just represent a certain stage. To me, a Dan realm skill, even if it is high-level, is hard to come by. It takes a long time to save money to buy it, and maybe The grade is not high, and there is no potential for advancement.”
"That's it..."
Jiang Yan nodded in confusion, understanding what the shopkeeper wanted to express. He pursed his lips and responded simply:
"I need Talisman Realm Skills."
Talisman Realm Kung Fu... Hearing Jiang Yan's calm answer, the strong man's pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly, and his body became stiff. Talisman Realm Kung Fu was needed, which meant that Jiang Yan was most likely a Golden Core Realm warrior.
"Oh my god, I'm really seeking death. I'm actually blackmailing a master of the Golden Core Realm... If that aunt hadn't stopped me, would I have become a cold corpse now, sinking deep in the whirlpool of the Minngling River? , eaten by fish and beasts..."
The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead without concealing it. When he looked at Jiang Yan again, his eyes had become humble, and he was humble from the bottom of his heart:
"Guest, although I am a native of Nanyanzhou, your level is much higher than mine. I have never really participated in or witnessed things at the level of golden elixir and talisman realm. I can only tell you what I have collected, but I cannot It must be right, but it may not be complete.”
At this time, he paused and glanced at Jiang Yan. He saw that this master who was suspected of being in the "Golden Core Realm" just kept listening without any expression. He felt a little weak, but he could only continue:
"In Nanyan, there are many forces that can obtain Talisman Realm skills, but they basically fall into three categories: official families, sects, and aristocratic families..."
Listening to the "Strong Man" shopkeeper's more detailed account, Jiang Yan remained calm on the surface, but a little irritable on the inside.
Although what this guy said is not as detailed as the information Ouyang Xiuya told him, the general meaning is consistent. Joining these forces requires making a lot of contributions and accepting varying degrees of control.
"Is there no choice? Do you have to choose such a force, or wait for an opportunity to go to the wild at a certain time to explore a cave, ancient tomb, etc. where there may be a cultivation method?"
"Or looking for some evil forces, criminal thieves, etc., to fulfill their own needs while doing justice for heaven?"
An idea jumped out of Jiang Yan's mind, and then was replaced by another more manipulative idea, one after another.
I don't know how long it took before he forced himself to settle these thoughts and continued to ask:
"Do you know which force in Southern Yanzhou has the Fire Department cultivation method at the Talisman Realm level?"
"As for the fire technique..." The shopkeeper did not answer immediately. He lowered his head and thought for a moment before considering it and said:
"Among the forces in Nanyanzhou City, there are quite a few who master the fire-based exercises. After all, this is the type of exercises with the most schools. However, due to different emphasis and different concepts, the power of the fire-based exercises mastered by these forces is also different. Are not the same."
After a pause, the shopkeeper dealt with the question asked by a waiter and continued:
"In general, in Nanyan City, the most powerful fire skills are recognized as being in the hands of two families. One is the 'Haori True Skill' from Lord Zhou Mu's lineage, and the other is the 'Three Disasters and Three Disasters' from the Juling Society lineage. Of course, due to historical reasons, the Giant Spirit Society has split several times and weakened several times. There are still less than half of the three disasters and three difficult methods. Only the 'Great Sun Natural Disaster' has been inherited intact..."
Having said this, the brawny shopkeeper stopped, raised his head, and showed his emotions with some anxious eyes:
He has told all the information he has.
"There are still some gains." Jiang Yan nodded lightly and did not embarrass him any more. Facing the shopkeeper's probing gaze, he pondered for a moment and asked the last question:
"As a warrior with a low level of cultivation, the information you possess is beyond the limit of what you can achieve.
"Why?"
"This..." When the shopkeeper heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly:
“Everything but the last ones.
"It's all common sense."
…
…
"State Shepherd Lineage or Giant Spirit Society, which one do you need to choose?"
After waving the shopkeeper to leave, Jiang Yan found a chair in the lobby and sat down, looking away at the flow of people on the street, planning the feasibility of joining a certain force.
"Guest, please use it slowly."
The waiter in the store came over lightly, holding a plate of braised pork slices of unknown type in one hand and a pot of tea in the other.
After filling Jiang Yan's first cup of tea, the waiter bowed and left.
"Little people also have their own way of survival."
After sighing with emotion at the "black-hearted" shopkeeper's little thoughts, Jiang Yan continued to think about the previous question and made an analysis:
"Choosing Zhou Mu's lineage is equivalent to joining the official force. As a Jindan realm warrior who joins halfway and only desires Talisman realm skills, the official family will inevitably do some research on my past. They must at least have a general idea and know who I am. He's not a cultist, he's not a bad person with many evil deeds, he doesn't need too much precaution, he can be trusted..."
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan lowered his eyes and shook his head slightly:
"But, here's the problem. Although I am not a disciple of the evil forces and there is no problem with my identity, I cannot withstand scrutiny.
"Haha, I have been studying martial arts for less than two years, and I have grown from an ordinary person who has not mastered the basic cultivation methods to a half-step talisman state. There is no use in covering up such a situation with any excuse. I don't believe it myself."
With a gentle breath, Jiang Yan drank the last bit of tea, put down the cup, stood up, and slowly outlined an incomprehensible smile at the corner of his mouth:
"The Giant Spirit Society, the Three Disasters and Three Difficulties Law, seems to be the source of the True Form Law of the Great Sun. I didn't expect that in the end, I would have to interact with it.
"Is this fate?"
