The pursuit of murder has arrived! (Third update, seeking votes!)

  He walked out of the small inn in the cold, took a deep breath, and felt the joy of becoming an immortal cultivator, but he quickly regained his composure.

  "After becoming a cultivator, I can no longer do the hard labor in the artifact workshop. Using Tiger Leaps Triple Slash to mine Xuan Iron ore for a month only earns two or three pieces of spirit stone, just enough to buy a few stalks of medicine to refine my body's qi and blood, barely scraping by."

  "I've become a cultivator now, buying spiritual pills and techniques requires even more spirit stones, at least 10 to 20 pieces per month just barely enough."

  The bitter cold quickly arrived on the streets.

  During this time, he was busy earning spirit stones, but also spent a lot of time inquiring about the situation with cultivation. The information he obtained made him feel even more pressure. After becoming a cultivator, one still needs to work harder to earn spirit stones.

  "Calculate your fate, measure your spiritual roots!! Come and calculate your destiny, see if your fate is deep enough to become an immortal one day! I am Zhou Xian Shi, in the Immortal Fate City, I have been calculating fates for 30 years, every calculation is accurate. Warriors calculate their fate, only 100 taels of gold! Cultivators measure their spiritual roots, starting from one piece of spiritual stone."

  An old man with a celestial appearance walked on the small streets south of Xian City, carrying a divination book basket on his back, shouting loudly, with three big characters "Zhou Xianshi" hanging on the basket.

  This place is where warriors often appear, and only here does Zhou Xian have business.

  Yan Han and Zhou Xian Shi passed each other shoulder to shoulder, when he suddenly thought of something and stopped, asking, "Can you measure the spiritual root?" He had heard people mention spiritual roots while working in the workshop, which were quite important for cultivation.

  Zhou Xianshi was wandering on the street when he was stopped by a young cultivator in the first layer of the Refining Qi period. He smiled and said, "Of course! Young man, I see that you have an unusual bone structure and a deep spiritual aura. Let me help you measure it, it will be very beneficial for your future! If your spiritual root is ordinary, give me one piece of spirit stone. If your spiritual root is high, then you'll have to give me several pieces."

  Zhou Xianshi took out a somewhat damaged magic stone from the book basket, missing one corner, about one-third less. "Hold it and infuse your magical power into it!"

  "This stone is broken! Can it be used?"

  Bitter cold doubt.

  "It's nothing, I accidentally dropped it and shattered it earlier. But it doesn't matter, as long as the spiritual root potential is below 70 points, it can be measured accurately. I've been fortune-telling in the Immortal City for 30 years and have never seen anyone exceed 80 points!"

  Zhou Xianshi said with his mouth full.

  The severe cold grasped the law stone, and the law stone began to emit golden light, getting brighter and brighter. Suddenly, a burst of golden light flashed out, "crack", and the law stone split into several pieces of broken stones.

  "Golden...! ......shattered, shattered?!"

  Zhou Xianshi was stunned.

  "What a broken stone, it cracked at once! Scared me!"

  He cast a cold glance at Zhou Xian Shi, shook his head, and tossed the magic stone before clapping his hands. He looked around briefly, but there were no other cultivators who had noticed the scene just now, so he quickly left, disappearing into the crowd.

  "More than seventy points of Golden Soul Root Potential Points shouldn't be wrong!"

  Frost quickly left, but his heart was excited.

  The result shocked him, completely beyond his expectation. However, no matter what spiritual root he had, he would go all out to cultivate it.

  "Impossible, how can it shatter! ... A single Golden Spirit Root, definitely exceeds seventy! Exceeding sixty is already a genius-level cultivator. A single Spirit Root exceeding seventy is an even more talented cultivator than Tian Chang! The entire Yunzhou rarely sees such a person!"

  Zhou Xianshi was shocked for half a moment, and suddenly shivered. A genius-level cultivator like this, how many can there be in the nine major sects? Probably only one or two can be counted on one's fingers. Such a person, with just one stomp of their foot, is enough to shock the entire Tianyun Xianyuan City.

  "This news is worth a fortune, selling it to the Great Immortal Families would be enough to get at least 1,000 Spirit Stones... no, 10,000 Spirit Stones, or even more! I'm going to sell this news to the Great Immortal Families in the Immortal City. Whoever offers the highest price will get it from me. Ha ha, I've made it, I've finally become rich!"

  "What a pity, the mountain gate of the Nine Great Immortal Sect is not something that this old man can enter. If I could sell the news to the Nine Great Immortal Sect, a genius-level disciple would be worth far more than just 10,000 spirit stones. Now I can only settle for second best and sell it to the great cultivation families of the Immortal City."

  Zhou Xianshi was so excited that he trembled with emotion, waving his hands and feet, and rushed away in big strides.

  As for the Xian City's wealthy families being willing to spend a fortune on this news, there are naturally many wonderful reasons. Win over a talented cultivator! Recruit him as a son-in-law! Make an early investment in a genius cultivator! In the future, once they achieve something, it will be a profitable deal worth ten thousand times the investment.

  The Xiancheng's Great Xian Family is very willing to invest in talented Xian practitioners.

  Sunset on the grassland.

  Three Qi-refining stage one and two layer cultivators were walking in the wilderness.

  "It's been almost five days since he left the city, and still no sign of him on this sunset prairie! Could that kid have already returned to Xian City?"

  Zheng Zicheng's young and handsome face showed some anxiety.

  "No. One of my brothers has been guarding the city gate of Xiancheng all along, and you have drawn a portrait of that kid. He should be able to recognize him. If that kid returns to Xiancheng, he will notify us in time!"

  A burly man said in a low voice, "Besides, in my estimation, that kid left the Immortal City for the Setting Sun Wilderness, and he's probably trying to kill some demon beasts to earn spirit stones. It's only been four or five days, how many demon beasts could he have killed? I doubt he even got much of the demon mouse skin, no way he'd be back so soon."

  "That's right! That kid is just a nobody from the Wu country, even if he got lucky and became a cultivator, in the Immortal City he wouldn't know any cultivators, poor as can be, definitely eager to earn spirit stones. Without spirit stones, even if he became a first-level Qi Refining cultivator, he'd still be useless."

  Zheng Zicheng thought for a moment and forced himself to calm down.

  Last time at Heishuiyuan, he was too careless and suffered a crushing defeat, having his arm cut off by this kid. But this time, he was extremely cautious.

  He had one thousand pieces of spirit stone, bought a spirit sword and a manual of magic spells.

  To be on the safe side, they even found two accomplices who were familiar with the Xian City area, the sons of their master's old friends.

  "This time, we have a sure thing. Two Qi Refining second-layer cultivators, one Qi Refining first-layer cultivator. We have three people on our side! He's just a newcomer to cultivation, in this immortal city without any relatives or friends, no reliable helpers! Once we find him, it'll be his death sentence!"

  Zheng Zicheng's face turned sinister.

  A young man who was walking behind the Great Han Dynasty looked at him with a silent glance.

  The young man walking behind nodded and blew a strange whistle towards the sky, and a spiritual sparrow fell from the sky.

  The young man used simple bird language to communicate with the spirit sparrow, and then said to Zheng Zicheng and Da Han, "It just flew around for more than ten miles. It found groups of cultivators, as well as individual cultivators. However, it can't recognize people and can't find out which one is your enemy. We have to search one by one, and it will take some effort to find."

  "No harm in that, let's keep searching! I've been chasing him from Wuguo to Zhao Yueguo for three whole months. Spending a few more days searching won't hurt."

  Zheng Zicheng said with a hateful tone, "That little brat is not timid or afraid of trouble, he's cunning and ruthless! I have a strong premonition that this time he left the city, perhaps to wait for me to come to him, and ambush me on the grasslands. He should be somewhere in this sunset wilderness, and we'll meet soon! This time, let's see how he escapes with his life. After killing this little brat, I'll go back and deal with Yan Han and Wei Xuan Yu, those two annoying guys will also be eliminated."
