“Okay, and how much for these six books?” Zhang Chen pointed to the six books.

These were the introductory books to the Six Arts of Immortal Cultivation, ‘Introduction to Alchemy’, ‘Introduction to Weapons Refinement’, ‘Introduction to Formations’, ‘Introduction to Talisman Crafting’, ‘Introduction to Spiritual Plants’, and ‘Introduction to Puppet Creation’.

Anyone who was proficient in any one of them could thrive in the world of cultivation.

Zhang Chen wasn’t sure which one suited him best, so he decided to buy all of them to see if he had any talent in these areas.

Even if he didn’t have any talent, he could still expand his knowledge. The vendor glanced at them and said, “100 spirit stones per book.”

“I’ll take all six. Can you give me a discount?” Zhang Chen asked.

The vendor was taken aback but thought for a moment and said, “If you buy all six, it’s 50 spirit stones per book.”

These were just the most basic introductory knowledge and not particularly valuable; most cultivators knew something about them.

“That’s a total of seven books for 560 spirit stones.” Zhang Chen handed over the spirit stones, which he had almost emptied from killing people during this period.

Seeing so many spirit stones, the stall owner became enthusiastic. “Fellow Daoist, these are the spells and introductory books you want. Please take them.”

“Thank you.” Zhang Chen took it and placed it in his storage bag. He turned around and walked towards the inn, no longer strolling around the market.

It was not that he did not want to shop anymore, but he did not have many spirit stones left. This was not the market of the Blood God Sect and did not accept blood essence.

‘When I return to the sect, I have to exchange for some spirit stones.’

Blood essence was only circulated within the Blood God Sect. The real currency in the cultivation world was still spirit stones.

As he thought about it, Zhang Chen arrived at the inn. According to his Blood God Sense, the target of this mission was inside the inn.

“Senior, do you want to stay in the inn?” The innkeeper immediately welcomed him.

“Well, how much is it per day here?” Zhang Chen asked.

“A normal room is one spirit stone per day, a mid-range room is five spirit stones per day, and a top-level room is ten spirit stones per day.

The mid-range room included three meals, which were all made of demon beast meat. The top-level room had a gathering spirit array, which not only had abundant spiritual energy but also has spirit fruit medicinal baths and maidservants to serve.

“If you like the maidservant, you can just reward her with two spirit stones…

Hehehe-”

“Just give me a normal room.” Since consuming and refining demon blood was equivalent to absorbing spirit stones for cultivation, he didn’t have a great demand for spiritual energy in his surroundings.

“Okay, senior. This is your room number array card. You just need to inject some mana to open the door.” The innkeeper was a bit disappointed since most Foundation Establishment cultivators would choose the top-level room.

Arriving at his room and hanging the “Do Not Disturb” sign, Zhang Chen took out the newly bought ‘Formless Demon Scripture’.

[Detected that the cultivation technique, Formless Demon Scripture, can transform into another person’s appearance, without revealing any flaws in appearance.]

[Side effect: After using it, you will gradually lose your memory over time and forget your original identity, turning into a completely different person.]

[Please wait a moment, system modification is in progress…]

[Ding! Modification complete. Side effects canceled.]

Zhang Chen’s heart was already calm as he began to cultivate this spell.

The Formless Demon Scripture could be said to be a necessary spell for killing, arson, framing, and evading pursuit.

Of course, simply changing one’s appearance was useless, as the cultivators had too many detection methods.

For example, blood curses and other marking spells, no matter how the target changed their appearance or hid their aura, were useless.

Blood bodies were originally condensed from blood, and changing their appearance was very easy. Therefore, Zhang Chen only took 10 days to master it.

Getting started only meant being able to change one’s face. If one wanted to be exactly like the person they were changing into, they still needed to practice until they reached mastery.

However, it was enough for now. Zhang Chen took out the ‘Introduction to Alchemy’ and flipped through it.

Since it was an introduction, it naturally covered the most basic things.

It roughly introduced several methods of alchemy, what was needed, what to pay attention to, and the steps, etc.

However, to truly practice alchemy, it was far from enough. At the very least, one needed a pill formula.

The other five entry-level books were roughly the same.

Only the book on spiritual plants mainly talked about how to view the properties of spiritual plants, what environment they should be grown in, and how to take care of them.

After reading all six books, Zhang Chen felt that he might have some talent in alchemy, arrays, and talisman-making because these three techniques required powerful spiritual will.

With the Divine Forging Technique and the Soul Devouring Technique, his divine thoughts were naturally powerful.

Among them, talisman-making was the easiest to master. One only needed a talisman brush, talisman paper, and demon blood to try making talismans.

Hence, Zhang Chen prepared to go out and buy a talisman brush and talisman paper to practice.

Previously, he had obtained several storage bags. The things inside could be sold for some spirit stones.

“Eh! One of them left the inn.” At this moment, Zhang Chen sensed a blood curse starting to move and leaving the inn.

After thinking about it, he decided to follow and take a look.

Changing his clothes, Zhang Chen’s face wriggled and turned into the appearance of Wen Xiaosu.

Then he used the Yin Energy Isolating Technique to hide his aura.

After leaving the inn, Zhang Chen quickly found his target according to his senses. He was a middle-aged man with the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

This was the older of the twins.

He came to a stall and cupped his hands. “Fellow Daoist Su, have you found anything about the matter I asked you to find out?”

The stall owner shook his head. “If the Blood God Sect’s blood curse is so easy to remove, what’s the point of this blood curse?”

His brother nodded in disappointment. “Then I’ll have to trouble Fellow Daoist

Su to continue investigating for me.”

“Fellow Daoist, don’t worry. I’ll try my best to find out.”

“Then I won’t delay Fellow Daoist Su’s business.”

After his brother left, Zhang Chen came to the stall.

“Fellow Daoist, what do you need?” The stall owner greeted him warmly.

Zhang Chen took out two spirit stones and placed them on the table. He asked calmly, “What did that person say to you just now?”

The stall owner looked at the spirit stones and then at Zhang Chen, showing a hesitant expression. “I always keep my customers’ secrets, and besides, he’s been my good friend for many years. We’re like brothers…”

Without waiting for the stall owner to ask for more money, Zhang Chen revealed his Foundation Establishment stage aura and said, “If you don’t want to stay in this market forever, tell me what that person said.”

In truth, it wasn’t that Zhang Chen didn’t want to pay more, but he was short on money and had to resort to threats.

The stall owner was sweating profusely and quickly said, “Sir, he asked me to help him find a way to break the Blood Curse.”

A way to break the blood curse?

Zhang Chen thought of a way to get the man out of the market. Although they would have to leave sooner or later, he didn’t want to waste time.

“I have something I need you to do. After it’s done, I’ll give you 20 spirit stones.”

“Sir, just tell me what you need. I’ll do it for you,” the stall owner replied, not daring to raise the price this time.

“In a couple of days, tell him you’ve found a way to break the Blood Curse and bring him out of the market.”

“I’m afraid he won’t believe me.”

“Tell him that the method is…

After giving his instructions, Zhang Chen went to several other shops and sold everything he didn’t need, earning a total of 270 spirit stones.

Then he went to a shop that sold talismans to ask about the price of the materials..
