Gold Core Is A Star, You Call This Cultivating Immortality?

Chapter 285: Buyer of Martial Arts Techniques

With a punch, a loud explosion resounded.

This scene was shocking, yet it also felt ordinary.

After all, does this punch have more killing power than a gun?

Can it compare to a truck when it comes to moving goods at a construction site?

Hmm... it can't compare.

It's not even as effective as swallowing a gene potion.

Second Senior Brother was both surprised and felt that it was nothing special.

He's a genius... hmm.

"Now that you've made some progress, it seems that I don't need to teach you anymore. If you have any questions in the future, just come and ask me," Second Senior Brother said. "Xiao Li, take Qi Yuan to get a set of training clothes."

"Okay."

Everything that just happened had no waves of excitement. It was less shocking than a dog getting sick in a celebrity's home.

Qi Yuan followed the staff to get his training clothes.

At this moment, he felt quite unsettled.

Because, in that punch just now, he discovered something different.

This punch was very ordinary, not even comparable to the martial arts in Ash Water World.

But with Qi Yuan's extraordinary observational skills, he felt that there was something hidden in this punch.

"This punch... seems a bit different."

When he threw that punch, Qi Yuan felt a completely different sensation compared to the martial arts in Ash Water World and the Martial Dao on the Moon Watching Continent.

Of course, it was just a feeling.

He couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was.

The main reason was that he was still too weak and lacked "insight."

If he had Yin God cultivation, he would instantly discover the problems within his body.

Even curses would probably be completely resolved instead of suppressed.

After changing into his training clothes, Qi Yuan entered the training room.

The spacious training room was filled with more than twenty men and women.

Most of them were men, and there were significantly fewer women, only about a quarter of the total.

"Hey, handsome?"

As soon as Qi Yuan entered, he attracted the attention of many people.

After all, with Qi Yuan's looks, he had attracted many fangirls back in school.

If he hadn't developed a mental illness, girls like Li Yan wouldn't have pursued him so crazily.

Sometimes, when a man becomes handsome, he realizes how proactive some girls can be.

And those who have the spare money to practice martial arts here definitely come from well-off families.

The personalities of these men and women were generally cheerful, and some of the girls even flirted boldly with Qi Yuan.

"I'm Qi Yuan, nice to meet you all," Qi Yuan casually said, found a corner, and began studying and practicing the "Resonant Fist of Ming Martial Arts."

"Young handsome, I've been here for a month longer than you. Do you want me to teach you?" A girl with a high ponytail approached Qi Yuan, her behavior quite bold.

"Oh?" Qi Yuan looked at the girl with the high ponytail. "Are you skilled?"

"Wang Shi Qiao is a genius with nine meridian lines, her skills are exceptional," her friend said from a distance, smiling.

Wang Shi Qiao looked at Qi Yuan and opened the window. "Look... this is the fourth floor."

Qi Yuan looked down.

Jumping from this height, an ordinary person would probably die.

Could it be...?

He looked at Wang Shi Qiao with anticipation in his eyes.

"Watch me throw a punch!"

At this moment, Wang Shi Qiao shouted loudly and fiercely punched the sandbag next to Qi Yuan.

The sandbag, which was originally under immense pressure, swung violently, appearing quite powerful.

If Qi Yuan, who hadn't joined this game yet and was cursed, were to be hit by such a punch, he would be in trouble.

"Good, not bad!"

"This punch has a year's worth of power!"

The rest of the people applauded as they watched the spectacle.

Wang Shiqiao looked at Qi Yuan and proudly said, "Sister, wasn't that punch powerful?"

Qi Yuan looked at Wang Shiqiao with anticipation and asked, "Powerful, should we perform a jump off the building now?"

"What?" Wang Shiqiao smiled and said, "I was just teasing you. I never said anything about jumping from the fourth floor. Even our senior brother would end up in the hospital if he jumped from there. Do you really think that practicing the 'Mingwu Resonant Fist' will make you a superhero who can defeat genetic warriors?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan murmured, "Is Martial Dao really that weak?"

On the way here, Qi Yuan had already heard that the senior brother of the Mingwu Martial Arts Hall was the second strongest person in the hall, second only to the hall master. This person had already mastered the eighth level of the "Mingwu Resonant Fist," yet he still got injured from jumping off the fourth floor.

No wonder learning martial arts was just a hobby, similar to fishing and fitness on Blue Star.

"Martial Dao is not weak. Our bodies are much stronger than ordinary people... and it's all natural!" Wang Shiqiao said, intentionally puffing out her chest.

Due to the development of technology and the collision of ideas on Cangxing, the cultural atmosphere of the various countries on Gongxing has become much more open than before, especially among the wealthy.

"Where's the natural part?" Qi Yuan glanced at Wang Shiqiao's nose and said, "You've had plastic surgery on your nose."

Wang Shiqiao's face changed slightly. She covered her nose with her hand and said with an unchanged expression, "You can tell?"

"It's so obvious." Qi Yuan answered truthfully.

"Damn it, it hasn't even been a year since I had it done, and someone can already tell. How can that damn hospital promise me that it would look natural and not noticeable? I have to go find them!" Wang Shiqiao angrily left, seemingly wanting to cause trouble for the cosmetic hospital.

Qi Yuan turned his head and ignored her, continuing to study the "Mingwu Resonant Fist."

This set of martial arts had techniques that were coordinated with the fist moves. If it were the martial arts and fist moves of the Ash Water World, Qi Yuan could fully grasp them with just one look and perform them perfectly. However, the Martial Dao techniques in this world were different.

Qi Yuan could indeed perform the "Mingwu Resonant Fist" in its entirety. However, he needed to practice it regularly. He found that practicing this technique was also a form of progress.

For others, progress might be improving their proficiency in the fist moves, but for Qi Yuan, it was not the case. He discovered that there was something deeper within it, but he couldn't figure it out yet.

"Punch out like a soul, resonate in all directions... push up, circle to the right..." Qi Yuan silently recited, continuing to perform the "Mingwu Resonant Fist."

The fist techniques were executed by Qi Yuan with full concentration. Time flew by quickly. Sweat rolled down his forehead, but Qi Yuan paid no attention and continued to practice this set of martial arts.

In the training room, the other students were chatting, sparring, or talking nonsense. Occasionally, someone would glance at Qi Yuan, but they wouldn't linger for too long.

Not far away, Qiao Wu looked through the glass door, scanning the entire training room. Finally, his gaze fell on Qi Yuan, revealing a trace of admiration in his eyes.

"In this era, being obsessed with martial arts is quite rare," Qiao Wu couldn't help but sigh.

He was the hall master of the Mingwu Martial Arts Hall, over fifty years old, but due to taking genetic drugs, he now stood in place like a wall, giving people a strong sense of impact.

The second senior brother stood beside Qiao Wu, looking at Qi Yuan and couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that he was born in the wrong era. If he were placed in ancient times, with his diligence and talent, he might have become a formidable general who could dominate a region."

Qiao Wu nodded in agreement. Indeed, society today is very different from ancient times. Martial Dao has become nothing more than an embellishment and a small circle. Qiao Wu himself came from a Martial Dao family. His ancestors even produced martial arts champions and generals. But what about now? After decades of practicing the "Mingwu Resonant Fist," the improvement it brought him was not even comparable to a single genetic drug.

"He wants to participate in the Martial Dao Conference? He's a good seedling. Our Mingwu Martial Arts Hall hasn't had any students participate in a long time. If he participates, it might attract many people to join our martial arts hall," Qiao Wu smiled and casually mentioned.

The Martial Dao circle is a closed small circle. People like Qiao Wu, who have taken genetic drugs, are not allowed to participate in the Martial Dao Conference competitions.

Otherwise, it would be unfair to the other contestants.

"Well, with his looks, participating in the Martial Dao Conference, as long as he can make it to the top 100, and have a nationwide live broadcast, he will definitely gain a lot of fans," Second Senior Brother calculated.

After all, there are very few people like Qi Yuan who have both good looks and a serious dedication to martial arts.

"Top 100?" Qiao Wu shook his head, "His physical fitness is too poor, I doubt he can even make it to the city level, let alone... nationwide."

Upon hearing this, Second Senior Brother also laughed, feeling that he had indeed been a bit unrealistic.

The improvement of Martial Dao on the human body is limited, and it is more effective to eat more and gain strength.

...

"No matter the Immortal Law, my current strength... has indeed improved a little bit."

After returning home, Qi Yuan enjoyed a hot bath.

In the training room, he had sweated a lot and his whole body was hot.

"This kind of cultivation... seems to be related to blood."

Qi Yuan's eyes seemed to see through his own body.

While cultivating Martial Dao, he received some hidden information in his eyes, and it seemed that there had been some changes in his blood.

However, he didn't know exactly what changes had occurred from the information he saw.

"I need to quickly improve my cultivation strength..."

Qi Yuan sighed.

His current strength is too weak, and there are many things he cannot do.

But if he wants to accelerate his cultivation, he needs to spend money to buy materials.

"Should I set up a stall outside and become a doctor?" Qi Yuan thought.

With his eyes and various accomplishments, being a doctor would definitely work.

Although he doesn't understand the illnesses of this world, he can simply use Daoist methods to treat kidney deficiency, and there would be no problem.

"Or should I first see if my cultivation technique has been sold?"

Thinking this way, Qi Yuan logged into his account.

"Oh... someone has rewarded me?"

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up.

He had set it up so that if someone wanted to private message him, they had to reward him ten thousand yuan.

Unexpectedly, someone actually rewarded him.

"It seems that this world is still full of fools... there are so many rich people!"

Qi Yuan was happy.

Isn't this just opening a business?

Looking at his account balance, which had increased by five thousand yuan, Qi Yuan felt a toothache.

"They still take half of the reward money, this app is too greedy."

He complained, then opened the chat interface of Heavenly World and immediately saw a message.

"Oh... someone wants to buy my cultivation technique for ten thousand yuan?"

"Ninety-nine million, no bargaining, if you want to bargain, I won't do this business." Qi Yuan casually replied.

He created this cultivation technique, so this price was not a loss.

In Ash Water World, if the Transcendent Level Invincible Exploding Power technique was completed, it would be enough to be considered a treasure of a powerful force.

Ordinary Heaven Level High Grade techniques couldn't compare to it at all.

"Can we have a video call?"

Soon, a message came from the other side.

"Video call means adding me as a contact, you have to reward me one hundred thousand yuan first." Qi Yuan replied.

He couldn't be bothered to randomly video chat with others.

At the same time, in the border town of Yue Lang Country, a man in a black jacket squinted his eyes, pondering something.

Beside him, a young man in a short-sleeved shirt showed an angry expression on his face: "This person is definitely a scammer, asking for ten thousand yuan? Does he think we're idiots?

There must be no other cultivation techniques behind it.

And cultivating immortality... is also nonsense."

The young man secretly glanced at the boss, seeing the boss lost in thought, he didn't dare to say anything else.

The black-jacketed man tapped his fingers on the table, pondering something.

"All his personal information is with me, if he dares to deceive me... we can just go to Qin Yuan and bring him back." The black-jacketed man had a confident expression on his face.

His identity was not ordinary, but a military arms dealer.

The thing I do is to hang my head on my belt, so I'm not afraid of being deceived.

And... just a hundred thousand yuan.

"It's done."

He didn't hesitate at all and continued to praise the hundred thousand yuan.

After praising, he glanced at the man in shorts, and the man in shorts immediately understood the boss's meaning and quickly moved a sniper rifle onto the table.

The man in the black jacket obviously wanted to use these to intimidate the seller.

After about ten breaths, the video call connected.

The man in the black jacket looked at Qi Yuan, who was wearing a shirt, and was about to speak when he heard the lazy voice of the other party.

"Five minutes. If you don't decide to buy within five minutes, the deal is off."

Qi Yuan's voice made the man in the black jacket slightly stunned, and any words he wanted to say were blocked.

The man in the black jacket was not angry, but instead touched the sniper rifle on the table. "A hundred thousand yuan for five minutes, Mr. Qi's time is really precious."

Qi Yuan was not surprised that his identity information had been leaked.

After all, the information on the Internet is like a sieve. Even a small official can give someone away, not to mention the wealthy and powerful people.

A few months ago, a small official in Qin Yuanguo used his privileges to threaten others online in order to chase after a star, and it became a hot topic.

"You made a big profit," Qi Yuan answered truthfully.

If in the Ash Water World, any cultivator who received Qi Yuan's guidance for five minutes would not only advance to a higher realm, but also benefit greatly.

The man in the black jacket looked at Qi Yuan's young face, his face showing a complex expression.

He had never encountered such a difficult person to deal with before.

Although the information he found showed that the other party had a mental illness, it was obvious that this information was fake.

The confidence and laziness in Qi Yuan's eyes were not something a mentally ill person could have.

"Can I see more of the sequel to 'Transcendent Level Invincible Explosion Technique'? After all, this is a deal worth a billion, such a big deal should be taken seriously." The man in the black jacket put down the sniper rifle and stopped touching it.

He found that in Qi Yuan's eyes, the sniper rifle seemed to not exist at all.

Facing Qi Yuan, an ordinary person, for some reason, he felt more terrified than facing the leaders of those small countries.

"Is a billion yuan a big deal? I heard that some people set a small goal of just a billion."

"If you don't buy this technique, then forget it. I might not sell it again in the future."

"This opportunity only comes once, so you better seize it." Qi Yuan said casually.

He needed money, but he wanted to do things on his own terms.

If it's too troublesome, he'd rather not sell it.

For cultivators, making money is easy.

And he still had a year's worth of memories.

If all else fails, why not buy some lottery tickets?

The man in the black jacket looked at Qi Yuan, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

A billion yuan is not a small amount of money, even if he takes it, it will still hurt a bit.

What if... it's a trap?

He hesitated and was conflicted.

Should he... take him down?

The man in shorts stood aside, his gaze anxious.

He felt that Qi Yuan was a scammer.

But since the boss didn't speak, he didn't know how to speak up either.

At this moment, Qi Yuan suddenly spoke, "You guys must be in the Yuelang Kingdom, right? I'm also in need of the unique Yuelang Kingdom plant called Kunqing Grass. If you buy my technique, I can consider a second round of cooperation with you."

"There are some special plants in the Yuelang Kingdom that I need, which Qin Yuanguo doesn't have. If you help me transport them here, as a reward, I can give you money, as well as some elixirs and pills... Hmm, they will be helpful for cultivation."

Kunqing Grass?

The man in the black jacket was slightly stunned as he looked at the potted plant on the table.

How did Qi Yuan know about it?

According to the information he investigated, Qi Yuan was just an ordinary citizen of Qin Yuanguo.

This Kunqing Grass is only known to a handful of people in the Yuelang Kingdom. How does he know about such a rare thing?
