New world

"Finally dead!"

Ye Chen panted and let out heavy breaths barely able to restrain his racing heartbeat.

The battle just now was actually not long, only ten breaths, but the battle between cultivators was truly decisive. If it wasn't for the effect of the soul bell being weaker the third time it was used, Ye Chen probably wouldn't have been able to dodge the last fireball.

Luckily, Guo Biyun had let her guard down when he saw the small sword in own hand, otherwise, it might have been himself who would have died.

But it was all over, and Ye Chen gained some insight into the battle. Looking back at the lifeless Guo Biyun with widened eyes, Ye Chen clicked his tongue, and couldn't help but recall a proverb: Beasts die because of food, while humans die because of greed.

That proverb really suited Guo Biyun's characteristics. If he had not been too greedy, and was satisfied with one storage pouch, Ye Chen would not have tried so desperately to kill him. Sadly....

Ye Chen could only shake his head and search Guo Biyun's corpse. One golden bell, and some talisman paper finally became his harvest.

Judging from the four paper talismans, the one paper talisman that had already been split was probably the shield talisman that he had cut previously.

As for the third one, it must be a fireball talisman, because all three of them have the same aura and chinabar streaks. Unfortunately, one of the fire talismans no longer had any spiritual aura, and even the brilliance of the calligraphy had faded. It definitely can't be used anymore.

Ye Chen wasn't greedy either, he was satisfied with the two talismans that could still be used, especially when he took the small golden bell that had a soul attack.

After confirming that there was no longer anything useful on Guo Biyun's body, Ye Chen immediately left the place without bothering to bury him.

Don't be kidding, even though Ye Chen knew Guo Biyun for a while, he would never care about a cunning monk like him. Moreover, he was also seriously injured and had to immediately seek shelter, so he could heal his wounds.

Several days later, in a small cave, Ye Chen who had already fully recovered from the fight with Guo Biyun, held a golden bell in his hand, and thought.

"Unlike talismans that seem to have a certain usage limit, this soul bell seems limitless." Ye Chen had already checked the three things he obtained from Guo Biyun and knew how to use them.

Those three things weren't as troublesome as a small sword or storage pouch, Ye Chen only needed to send a certain amount of mana into the three things, and it would automatically issue an attack.

Especially for golden bells, Ye Chen really liked them. Apart from there being no special technique to use it, it was a hidden attack that attacked his opponent's soul. Although the duration of soul confusion was only two breaths at most, and the effect would be weaker when continuously used on the same person, it was undoubtedly a loophole.

In an intense fight, if his opponent was suddenly confused for even just one breath, it would truly determine the outcome of the fight.

"Well, it's time to go."

Ye Chen stood up and started storing the bell, two talismans and of course his two storage pouches.

Learning from the previous incident, Ye Chen no longer dared to show his wealth implicitly. He no longer wanted to meet and deal with people like Guo Biyun. Moreover the first level qi refinement cultivation he had now was truly like a fat sheep.

On the way, Ye Chen also became more careful. For the first time since becoming an immortal cultivator, he became unwilling to meet other cultivators. No way, with his current strength, Ye Chen has no confidence in continuing to keep his life.

A month later, when Ye Chen finally arrived in front of Commonwealth City, he also started to act humble. Because even though he had not entered the city, he had already seen many other cultivators going in and out of the city.

Although not many, these cultivators were also the largest number he had encountered so far. Moreover, the breath they exuded was also much stronger than his own.

There is no guarantee that they don't want the things they have. So, Ye Chen started to think about remaining careful and not attracting attention as much as possible.

Looking back at the extremely tall and strong looking city walls, Ye Chen finally realized that it seemed like he was very, very weak.

Putting aside the other cultivators, just when Ye Chen was about to enter the gate after finishing queuing, he felt a sharp gaze that was always examining him. He didn't know who did it, but Ye Chen couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.

"Ten gold coins to enter the city." A city guard suddenly said to him.

Ye Chen, who saw that the city guards were actually mortals couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This was the first time an ordinary human had spoken in such an indifferent tone to him.

But he knew, that he couldn't take it lightly and dutifully gave ten gold coins before entering the city.

Commonwealth City, it was truly a prosperous city. After Ye Chen entered, he discovered that waking up, people could be seen walking around without caring about status. Whether cultivators or ordinary people, they all looked the same.

Looking left and right, and seeing the buildings and people selling along the street, Ye Chen, who came from the village, couldn't help but feel amazed.

Going deeper into the city, Ye Chen finally saw strange items that he had never encountered before. Not just goods, he also felt that the people selling in the inner city were not just ordinary people. From one of the people selling, Ye Chen discovered that he was actually an immortal cultivator, and what he sold were also things that were useful for immortal cultivators.

From there Ye Chen finally found out that the talisman paper he had now turned out to have the name Low level small fire talisman. Apart from small fire talismans, black stone shield talismans, water, wind and even lightning talismans were also available.

Upon witnessing such a novelty, Ye Chen was completely fascinated and couldn't bear to buy it, but unfortunately, they didn't accept silver or gold coins, they only wanted spiritual stones.

Spiritual stone, Ye Chen saw someone taking it out, and finally discovered that it was like a milky white crystal with pure spiritual aura hanging inside. It seemed like spiritual stones were also the main currency for cultivators.

At this time, when Ye Chen suddenly at one of the sellers opening a leather mat, he found a fruit that was familiar to him.

"Friend Daoist, do you want this Temper fruit?" The seller, who was a skinny young man said when he found Ye Chen looking at one of the fruits.

"What is Temper fruit?" Ye Chen didn't answer, but asked curiously.

"Don't you know?" The salesperson looked Ye Chen up and down before finally understanding and replying, "It seems like you are a loose cultivator who has just entered the world of cultivationI understand, how about it this way. Just ask what you want to know, and I'll answer it all with ten spiritual stones."

Hearing the seller's suggestion, Ye Chen immediately left without thinking about it.

Ten spiritual stones? Although Ye Chen could be said to be a country bumpkin, he knew how precious spiritual stones were. Giving ten spiritual stones just for a piece of information, Ye Chen would prefer to buy a low grade water element training formula, allowing him to get to the third qi refining.

Unfortunately he also had no spiritual stones at all. There may be some in the storage bag.

Thinking about the storage pouch, Ye Chen immediately looked for the person who sold it and asked a few things.
