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

Chapter 286: Third Level of Qi Refining

The man in the black jacket looked at the Kunqing Grass on the table, his eyes deep.

He finally said, "Can we meet in person?"

When it came to a business deal worth one billion, he couldn't be at ease without meeting the other party.

One Qi Yuan's death was insignificant, but losing one billion was a huge blow.

"Hurry up, I'm busy," Qi Yuan casually said.

Maybe in a while, when his cultivation reached a high level, he wouldn't care about one billion anymore.

"In two days, how about the Haixingya cruise ship in Tianyue City?" the man in the black jacket asked tentatively.

In two days, the luxurious Haixingya cruise ship would dock in Tianyue City for three days. During these three days, the Haixingya would be resupplied and also hold a banquet, inviting some social celebrities to attend.

"Well... you guys will reimburse the cost of the tickets and transportation," Qi Yuan agreed.

Consider it a free meal.

"Tomorrow, the invitation letter will be sent to you, and the day after tomorrow, a dedicated driver will come to pick you up," the man in the black jacket arranged it properly.

In fact, this was also a show of strength.

This was telling Qi Yuan that he knew his information and address.

"Alright, by the way, bring more Kunqing Grass, I'm running low," Qi Yuan looked at the man in the black jacket and thought of something, continuing, "If it's convenient for you, collect some materials for me as well, and deduct the money from our transaction.

Oh, and the amount of the transaction should be after tax."

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he informed the man of the several materials he needed and then hung up the video call.

In a small town near the border, the man in the black jacket's face was uncertain.

The exchange just now yielded too little useful information, and the initiative was in the hands of the other party.

As the saying goes, the customer is God.

But he felt that the person named Qi Yuan was the real God.

That kind of ease and confidence in his words was not something an ordinary person could possess.

As a arms dealer, the man in the black jacket had many guns under his command and had killed people. He had seen all kinds of people, but someone like Qi Yuan was the first.

The man with the short haircut had a dissatisfied look on his face. "This Qi Yuan is too arrogant, he doesn't give any face at all. This is a business deal worth one billion!"

Qi Yuan's attitude made the man with the short haircut quite unhappy.

"Azhi, prepare the materials that Qi Yuan mentioned just now," the man in the black jacket ordered.

The man with the short haircut, Azhi, was taken aback. "Boss, do we really need to collect them?"

"Well... if we successfully meet, this deal... will probably be done," the man in the black jacket understood himself very well.

Since he had already been tempted.

Then this deal would definitely go through.

Unless there was a major flaw when they met.

But in the video chat, the other party was seamless, so it was unlikely that there would be a major flaw when they met.

"Do we really need to do it?" Azhi swallowed hard, as if he understood something.

That was one hundred million Qin Yuan coins!

And it was after tax.

If he had that much money, he would have quit this job long ago and enjoyed life.

"Do it," the man in the black jacket said in a deep voice.

Azhi seemed to understand something. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Should I arrange some people on the Haixingya to... deal with him..."

"What are you thinking? This is a legitimate transaction!

Doing business requires credibility!" The man in the black jacket glared at Azhi.

He understood what Azhi meant, it was probably about doing something illegal.

How could a transaction involving the cultivation of Immortal Laws be done illegally?

What if it was true, wouldn't that mean the other party was a cultivator?

...

"Someone has already made a reservation, private messages are temporarily rejected, don't give any more likes, no refunds." Qi Yuan thought for a moment and left a comment in his video comment section, then pinned it.

After that, Qi Yuan exited the short video app.

"Qi Yuan, this is our Mingwu's member group, I invited you, please accept it." Second Senior Brother sent an invitation, along with a link to join the group.

"Okay, I'll trouble Second Senior Brother."

Qi Yuan entered a group called "Mingwu Gathering Place".

There were over three hundred members in this group.

After joining the group, Qi Yuan lurked and watched the messages in the group.

"Ah, the secret items are too expensive, I can't afford them at all." A female member with the nickname Xiaoyu complained in the group.

"Yu-jie, your husband is about to fart, and you still care about those tens of thousands of secret items?" A member laughed.

"The majority of the inheritance has been left to his sons, and I can only get a small portion?" Xiaoyu's words were filled with dissatisfaction.

"Not bad, inheriting billions of assets in three years, I envy that!"

"@Guild Master, can the secret items be cheaper? They're too expensive, I can't afford them!" Xiaoyu said in the group.

The other students also spoke up.

"Cheaper, I can't afford it!"

"We're so poor that we don't even have underwear to wear!"

Looking at the messages in the group, Qi Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What are secret items?"

Qi Yuan always maintained the good quality of asking when he didn't understand.

"Are you new, brother? When Martial Artists reach a high level of cultivation, they need to use secret items to enhance their strength.

By the way, don't think of secret items as genetic potions, they are completely natural." The kind-hearted student explained again.

"At what stage should secret items be taken?" Qi Yuan asked again.

"When practicing the 'Mingwu Resonance Fist' to the seventh level, you need to start taking secret items, otherwise you won't be able to progress at all.

Generally, it's us senior students who have been practicing the 'Mingwu Resonance Fist' for three or four years who will take secret items to enhance our strength." The kind-hearted big brother said a lot.

"Big brother, you've been practicing for so long, you must be very strong, right? Can you catch bullets with your hands?" Qi Yuan curiously asked.

"Cough... brother, you're joking..." The big brother couldn't say anything.

"It seems that even senior members are not strong." Qi Yuan thought to himself.

He naturally wouldn't post these words in the group, that would be too low in emotional intelligence.

He lurked in the group for a while and saw that most of the messages were complaining about the high price of secret items.

According to the information Qi Yuan obtained in the group, it would cost tens of thousands of dollars to practice martial arts normally for a month.

In this case, it would be several million dollars a year.

No wonder only rich people practice martial arts.

How can ordinary people afford to spend several million dollars a year on martial arts?

"I have to quickly reach the seventh level and see what the secret items are all about."

Qi Yuan was quite curious.

At present, he had already reached the first level of the "Mingwu Resonance Fist", and he was still far from the seventh level.

Moreover, Martial Dao and Immortal Dao were also quite different.

For example, the more difficult Immortal Dao, Qi Yuan had already reached the third level of Qi Refining.

If he had enough resources, Qi Yuan could immediately start Foundation Building.

But Martial Dao was different, it had to be practiced.

Really practiced.

Every time Qi Yuan performed the "Mingwu Resonance Fist", he felt a slight improvement.

This improvement was not an improvement in proficiency, but an improvement in Martial Dao cultivation.

"But ordinary people... I guess they can't persist in practicing several times a day... but I'm different, I can practice continuously!"

In the living room, Qi Yuan practiced the "Mingwu Resonance Fist" for a while.

After practicing, he began to cultivate the Immortal Law Decision.

"I guess I can only summon the projection of the Stellar Gold Core after reaching the Primal Core stage.

Right now, I'm... too weak, I have to keep a low profile."

Qi Yuan felt that he was very low-key now.

For example, selling martial arts techniques through videos.

There were many comments below... Well, if he were in the Ash Water World, Qi Yuan would go over through the internet.

But now, he was just a newbie at the third level of Qi Refining.

Go over through the internet?

Too troublesome.

Not in the mood to go.

At least after Primal Core, then consider purging the social atmosphere, right?

Otherwise, I have no confidence to say that I don't eat beef.

On the second night, Qi Yuan returned again, after taking a shower.

He lay on the sofa, watching the news on TV.

"In recent days, criminals have been infiltrating the city. Citizens are advised to pay attention to personal safety."

"Qin Yuan's precious pearl, the sixth princess of Tiancheng, celebrates her coming-of-age ceremony today. Congratulations to the princess!"

"Canxing has become the annual hot word, and more and more citizens are eager to immigrate to Canxing!"

"The Yue Lang Cabinet imposes a 'rain tax', and protesting citizens gather in the streets."

The news introduced various events happening in the world.

"If I remember correctly, in a few days, the sixth princess will be assassinated and there will be a political upheaval in the Yue Lang Kingdom."

Qi Yuan pondered.

He still had memories of the next year, although he was unaware of most things.

But for such a hot search and headline news, the Innate Seed still knew.

"With those rebooters around, the sixth princess probably won't be assassinated this time."

Although Qi Yuan had not yet contacted the Gongyi family, there must be someone among the rebooters who had already contacted the Seven Martial Stars family.

To prevent the death of the sixth princess, such a great achievement, someone would definitely do it.

At this moment, Qi Yuan's phone rang.

He glanced at it and saw that it was a call from Wang Xu.

"Qi Yuan, how was the blind date? Is the person Cui Fan introduced reliable?"

"No luck." Qi Yuan remembered the woman in the tight-fitting clothes, and he had borrowed a lot of money from her.

"It's okay, there will be better ones in the future. The job I recommended... do you want to consider it?"

"No, thanks, Old Squad Leader. I have found something to do for now, something that can make money."

"Can make money?"

"Yeah, it's impossible to just work. I want to do business. See you tomorrow, I won't chat anymore."

Qi Yuan hung up the phone.

He was too lazy to say anything more, and he had to practice for a while longer.

On the other end of the phone, Wang Xu was a little confused.

"Do business?"

Qi Yuan doing business?

This was quite unexpected.

After all, everyone knew that Qi Yuan was mentally ill.

Can a mentally ill person do business?

What would he sell?

His body?

But the call had already been hung up, and he couldn't say anything more.

"Ah, Qi Yuan is right. Being a worker is too tiring. Tomorrow I have to work hard to investigate the sea monster. Damn Sea Star Gorge!"

...

"Please have a seat, sir."

Inside the residential area, a well-dressed man opened the car door, and Qi Yuan sat in the car, closing his eyes to nurture his spirit.

This car was arranged by the man in the black jacket to pick up Qi Yuan.

Although he was wearing a suit, Qi Yuan still smelled a faint smell of blood.

This man had taken lives before.

Such a person, placed in a civilized city, could scare ordinary people, but for Qi Yuan... well, it was just like that.

"Does your boss have a lot of money?" Qi Yuan casually asked.

The driver was stunned for a moment and replied in a flat Qin Yuan dialect, "A lot."

"That's good. After all, with strong power, it's convenient to cooperate."

Qi Yuan couldn't be bothered to find more partners.

Finding one partner was enough.

Especially since he has gathered all kinds of materials, all he needs to do is cultivate, which is the best option.

The driver remained silent and did not speak.

After about two hours, the car stopped at a port.

"Mr. Qi, please follow me. The boss is waiting for you on the cruise ship."

Qi Yuan nodded and followed the man in a suit onto the cruise ship.

The Starfish Cliff cruise ship is a medium-sized cruise ship on the Arched Star. It is nearly 500 meters long and can accommodate nearly ten thousand tourists.

At this moment, the cruise ship was docked at the port, and there were people in uniform guarding the entrance.

Groups of men and women entered from time to time, with smiles on their faces.

Not far away, there were also some young men and women taking photos with their phones and cameras.

Some were live streaming, some were checking in.

Some conversations also reached Qi Yuan's ears.

"I heard that this cruise ship belongs to Prince Tyr. I wonder if I have a chance to have a beautiful encounter with this prince."

"Stop dreaming. You have to have money to pay for the ticket. I heard the tickets cost over ten thousand!"

"Well, there are ways to get in without paying. My sister and her friends went!"

"Special entrance?"

"Yeah... Unfortunately, I didn't pass the physical examination, otherwise I would have had a chance to go in too!"

Inside the cruise ship, there were many influential figures, attracting many young boys and girls.

After all, entering such an upper-class society could change their life trajectory.

Qi Yuan followed the man in a suit and walked through the VIP channel, boarding the cruise ship under the envious gazes of the young men and women.

The cruise ship was large, and there were many respectable people inside.

Occasionally, one could see guards patrolling with firearms.

"The security on the ship is very good. Ordinary guests are not allowed to carry weapons, so Mr. Qi doesn't need to worry about his safety," the man in a suit emphasized.

"Don't worry, I'm not concerned."

Although Qi Yuan was only at the third level of Qi Refining, his Qi Refining was different from others'.

There was nothing on this ship that threatened him.

The man in a suit remained silent and did not speak again.

"Where is your boss? Hurry up, I'm anxious to go back and practice martial arts."

Qi Yuan followed the man in a suit, weaving through the cruise ship for about twenty minutes.

"Almost there, just one more minute, the boss is waiting for you in the hall ahead," the man in a suit said hurriedly.

He deliberately led Qi Yuan around to give the boss more time to observe Qi Yuan.

"Okay." Qi Yuan nodded and didn't say anything else.

At the same time, not far from the cruise ship, a young girl in a dress blinked her eyes, seemingly doubting whether she had seen correctly.

"What's wrong, Uqi?"

"Nothing, I think I saw a high school classmate, but I must have mistaken him."

Seriously, my high school classmate should be my junior... He's really handsome. There were a few girls in our class who followed him every day.

If I hadn't been training regularly, I might have wanted to have a romantic relationship with him. What a pity... Now that he has become a public figure, he has to be cautious about dating." Uqi had a delicate and pretty face under her air bangs and her makeup was slightly glamorous. Her black dress perfectly showcased her figure.

"Although you can't openly date, you're still a successful alumna of your school, aren't you? When people see you, they have to call you a big star."

"Nonsense, I'm just a high-level service staff. Later, I have to go in and accompany the guests..." Uqi rolled her eyes.

Upon hearing this, her agent couldn't help but say, "If you don't want to socialize, we can arrange for it to be canceled."

Of course, she was just saying it casually. It was impossible to cancel.

"No, I have to seize this opportunity. Maybe it's a big resource. I don't want to be an unknown idol for the rest of my life!" Uqi said snobbishly. As she spoke, she pulled her dress down a bit, revealing more of her fair skin.

She had volunteered for this social event.

She also understood that when necessary, she might even have to sacrifice herself, but she still agreed to come.

Such things were common in various circles, both for men and women.

"I hope he's not a fat old man." Uqi thought to herself.

On the other side, Qi Yuan entered a grand reception room.

The reception room was large and luxuriously decorated, with no hint of low-key.

A man in a black jacket stood up and looked at Qi Yuan, a smile appearing in his eyes. "Qi Yuan, I am Kuanghuan."
