I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 403: Xiangyang City

Half an hour later, the cultivator opened his eyes and looked at Lin Qing with surprise and gratitude.

"Thank you, senior, thank you, senior."

Lin Qing just smiled. At this moment, the cultivator had already broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining. Moreover, with Lin Qing's spiritual power, it would be of great help to his cultivation in the later stage of Qi Refining.

"Alright, I have fulfilled my promise. Don't tell anyone about today's events. If you do, I'm afraid you won't meet a senior as kind as me again," Lin Qing said.

Upon hearing this, the cultivator's heart chilled. "I understand. I will never tell anyone."

"Alright, you may go now," Lin Qing said.

The cultivator's face brightened at this moment, and then he slowly left Qingyun Shop.

Watching his figure, Lin Qing's expression changed, and he couldn't help but think of something, but he ultimately held back.

In fact, it wasn't that troublesome. He could have just searched the cultivator's soul directly, but that would have a great impact on the cultivator. Lin Qing ultimately chose not to do so. Let things happen naturally, being too demanding might backfire.

At this point, knowing that the descendant was in Xiangyang City, Lin Qing didn't rush to go. He was still thinking about restoring his own cultivation first.

This was Cangzhou, where there were more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators and countless Gold Core cultivators. His cultivation at the peak of Gold Core was not very secure, let alone being only in the mid-stage of Purple Mansion. It would be better to restore his cultivation first.

During his time in Xiaorong Lane, he had noticed Gold Core cultivators passing by more than once.

Another year and a half passed in a hurry.

On this day, Lin Qing came back to his senses from cultivation and felt the replenished spiritual power in his body, revealing a smile on his face.

As he expected, in just a year and a half, he had restored his cultivation from the mid-stage of Purple Mansion to the peak of Gold Core. At this point, he could use various treasures without any restrictions and had a bit more confidence in facing danger.

Counting from the recovery of his memory, it only took him three years to restore his strength from the early stage of Qi Refining to the peak of Gold Core.

This was partly due to the contribution of pills and spiritual veins, but more importantly, it was because his cultivation had been lowered. It was only a temporary overspending of spiritual power that prevented him from maintaining his original realm. It was not a true damage to his foundation. If his foundation was damaged, even thirty years would not be enough.

After restoring his cultivation, he was about to leave Xiaorong Lane and head to Xiangyang City.

Originally, he was going to go directly to Zhongzhou, but after obtaining the clue to this cultivation technique, he was not in a hurry for the time being.

After packing up the things he had accumulated over the past few years and taking a final look at Qingyun Shop, Lin Qing directly left. Some familiar shops nearby asked him questions, but Lin Qing only said he was going out for a walk and didn't say much.

These shops didn't pay much attention to it, but after half a year passed without Lin Qing's return, they realized that Lin Qing had left Xiaorong Lane.

Some were happy, while others were disappointed. Without Lin Qing, the other formation shops sold better, of course, they were happy. But those material shops that Lin Qing often visited were disappointed. Lin Qing rarely haggled and bought a lot, but he was a rare hospitable person who was not easy to come across.

The cultivators who wanted to buy Lin Qing's formations were also extremely disappointed, and many cultivators were looking forward to Lin Qing's return.

But after waiting for a long time and not seeing Lin Qing return, these cultivators stopped waiting as well. Lin Qing's Qingyun Shop was rented out by other cultivators, and its name was changed. In the past few years, Lin Qing's traces completely disappeared, as if he had never been to Xiaorong Lane.

"Xiangyang City!"

Looking at the plaque hanging high above the city, Lin Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression calm.

It had been two days since he left Xiaorong Lane. He had been delayed a bit on the road due to his familiarity with magical treasures, so it took him two days to arrive.

But looking at Xiangyang City in front of him, Lin Qing felt no joy, but rather a sense of helplessness.

According to his understanding, Xiangyang City was one of the top mortal cities in Cangzhou. It was located on a major transportation route in Cangzhou, with a canal passing through it. There were constant merchants and traders, and the number of mortals in the city exceeded one million.

With so many mortals gathered, the descendant of the Huang family might have already left. Even if he hadn't left, he wouldn't be easy to find.

"It seems that I can only quietly search with my divine sense, hoping that he hasn't left."

This was what Lin Qing thought in his heart. In such a large mortal city, he didn't dare to search openly with his divine sense. As far as he knew, the cultivation world in Cangzhou had a deeper control over the mortal world. There were no national boundaries, only various cities. Basically, behind each city, there was the shadow of a cultivation force. Lin Qing didn't want to attract hostility so recklessly.

Speaking of this mortal world, it was divided by countries in Yunzhou, by various cities in Cangzhou, and according to Lin Qing's understanding, it was divided into thirty-six counties of different sizes in Zhongzhou. Each county had a large area, and even the smallest one was larger than Yunzhou. Just from this, one could see the difference between Yunzhou and Zhongzhou.

At this moment, looking at Xiangyang City, Lin Qing entered it dressed as a Confucian scholar.

There was no need to say much about the prosperity inside. With a city of one million mortals, all industries were thriving. Mortals crowded together, and the air became somewhat hot.

"Hmm?"

Lin Qing hadn't walked a few steps when he was surprised. There were three cultivators in front of him, and their cultivation levels were not weak. They all seemed to be Foundation Building cultivators, casually strolling around. With their cultivation levels, they couldn't detect Lin Qing, but Lin Qing could detect them.

"It seems that I can't be high-profile. Xiangyang City looks like a mortal city, but it's not simple at all." Lin Qing thought to himself, concealing his cultivation level even deeper.

After discovering these three Foundation Building cultivators, Lin Qing took a simple walk around the city and found the aura of over a hundred cultivators.

Although the number of cultivators was not many compared to the one million mortals, it was still not insignificant. Lin Qing had never seen a mortal city in Yunzhou that could gather so many cultivators.

Of course, among these cultivators, the highest cultivation level was only Foundation Building. There were no cultivators far surpassing Lin Qing. Although Lin Qing was at the Gold Core stage, he had the Goldfinger and his divine sense was not weaker than the early Nascent Soul stage. To deceive him, only cultivators at the mid Nascent Soul stage or above would be able to do so. Lin Qing didn't believe that there were any cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage in Xiangyang City.

After all, the higher the cultivation level, the greater the demand for spiritual energy. Qi Refining and Foundation Building cultivators could stay in a mortal city unharmed with the help of spiritual stones, but when it came to Nascent Soul, they had to be on an excellent spiritual vein to supply their cultivation.

As for the descendant of the Huang family, whom Lin Qing had not discovered for a while, there were already over thirty Qi Refining cultivators, and it was even possible that the person had broken through to the late Qi Refining stage, which would increase the number even more.

After roughly surveying the city, Lin Qing took out a portrait and looked at it.

This portrait was the appearance of the descendant of the Huang family left behind by that cultivator. Lin Qing had to rely on it to find him. Although two years had passed, his strength might have changed, but his appearance would not have changed much.
