Caspian knew that with Hadley’s realm, there was no point in playing tricks. Conversely, Hadley might even think Caspian was a dishonest person. Hence, Caspian nodded truthfully.
“This technique might be useless for others, but it may be a miracle for me when the time comes.”
Hadley knew that Caspian would not do anything useless, so after a bit of pondering, favonovel.com agreed.
According to the Heavenly Stars Sect’s sect rules, the disciples were not allowed to change the rewards of the sect at will. After all, if someone were to pursue it, the disciple’s behavior would be a challenge to the sect’s authority. Nonetheless, Caspian has already obtained Hadley’s permission, and favonovel.com also paid an additional price of 1,000 sect contribution points. Moreover, the technique favonovel.com wanted to exchange was also an unpopular technique, which would not be as good to improve his strength as a Heaven Grade martial art. Thus, there was no objection.
Consequently, Caspian smoothly received the jade slip that recorded the “Eye of Insight” technique from the Stargazing Platform. Caspian’s current spells included the God of Thunder, the Water Shade, and the Godly Finger of Cruor motivated by his blood and Qi.
As the Godly Finger of Cruor was not motivated by spiritual 0i, it was not restricted by the rule that the cultivator of the Pulse Control Realm could only learn three spells. With the Eye of Insight, Caspian was equivalent to mastering four magic skills. Cultivators during the Pulse Control Realm period who could master the four spells were extremely rare. At least in the South Earlington area, Caspian never heard of the second one.
The notion that Pulse Control Realm cultivators could master at most three techniques based only on the experience accumulated by generations of cultivators was time-tested. Nevertheless, who would have thought Caspian could break the layer of shackles by accident. Of course, Caspian did not tell anyone else about that. At least the God of Thunder’s mastery was currently unknown to anyone other than him, Handsome, and Daisy.
After obtaining the jade slip, it did not mean that Caspian could learn it immediately. The reconnaissance technique was unpopular because, on the one hand, it would not improve the cultivator’s combat power, and on the other hand, it was more challenging to learn that spell than the others.
Other techniques were nothing more than running the spiritual Qi in the body to achieve the purpose of activating the technique. The more troublesome ones would be like the God of Thunder, which required a lightning conductor. As for the Eye of Insight, it needed the assistance of some materials before it could be mastered.
These materials were not too rare, but the requirements for the year or other aspects were rather peculiar. Hence, after Caspian searched them at the Astrea Pavilion, there were still two missing items.
“Ganoderma lucidum that’s more than seventy-five years old, and the hemlock that has been quenched by fire.”
These two scarce materials made Caspian frown. The Ganoderma lucidum was a type of polypore fungus. The one Caspian looked for had something similar to an eyeball pattern on it, which would only appear when it reached 50 years. When it grew until 60 years old, the eyeball pattern would become three-dimensional like a real eye, and when it was 70 years old, the eyeball in the eye could roll around. If the medicinal material were taken or refined into medicinal pills, it would be helpful for practicing some eye-related spells and magical powers. However, these spells and magical powers were too unpopular, so that type of Ganoderma lucidum was not paid much attention.
Caspian searched the Astrea Pavilion and finally found that although Heavenly Stars Sect had that kind of material, the highest year was only forty years and was still planted in the ground. Moreover, Caspian would need it next month, so it would be too late even if it were moved to the Time Warp Zone to grow.
As for the hemlock that has been quenched by fire, it was also a headache for Caspian. That kind of thing could only be obtained by chance. After thinking about it for a while, Caspian felt that it would be a waste of time if favonovel.com waited for these two materials to appear in the Astrea Pavilion, so favonovel.com planned to visit some exchanges in the city, just like the Oceans Chamber of Commerce in Evergreen Town back then.
The Oceans Chamber of Commerce established in Evergreen Town was only one of the branches. It was a behemoth that spanned almost the entire Earlington of Efrax. Visiting an exchange such as the Oceans Chamber of Commerce would be helpful as even if the branch Caspian was at did not have the materials favonovel.com needed, they would actively help favonovel.com find it. If there were goods in other branches, they would help favonovel.com transfer them over. If they could not find the products required, they would source for Caspian on the spot with their financial and material resources. Then, within a few days, Caspian would be able to collect them.
Although the price may be higher, what Caspian lacked now was not money but time. Therefore, after making up his mind, Caspian told Hadley that favonovel.com planned to leave early and not follow everyone. Not long after, Caspian met Omar and others, and when favonovel.com talked about his idea, favonovel.com suddenly realized that there were many people with similar plans.
After asking, Caspian realized that everyone planned to take the opportunity to go out and practice. If they fastened their pace, they would arrive in the capital of Earlington of Efrax in North Earlington about 20 days from the Heavenly Stars Sect property. After all, they were not mortals who could only take the official route, and not to mention the cultivator’s walking speed was much faster than that of ordinary people. Even if there was a delay, they could reach the capital using the spirit boat or the teleportation array in the city.
Since there was ample time, they might as well go outside and experience the world.
When Caspian heard it, favonovel.com felt that what everyone said was reasonable. Moreover, they would pass through the territories of several other sects while walking from South Earlington to North Earlington, and they could learn about their future opponents on the way and prepare early. However, there was one thing that Caspian did not expect, Maya offered to travel with Caspian. Not only that, but Caspian also felt that it was difficult to refuse Maya’s excuse. Caspian lacked two materials, and Maya also needed to buy some items that the Astrea Pavilion did not have. Coincidentally, Maya knew that in the place where Middle Earlington was close to South Earlington, a floating market would be opened in ten days.
According to Maya, the floating market had a certain reputation in Middle Earlington and South Earlington as it was a kind of market where cultivators spontaneously gathered and bartered. The number of sect cultivators was far less than that of individual cultivators, and the individual cultivators might not be not as strong as sect cultivators. Still, many bizarre materials that the sects lacked, such as the secret books in the tombs or the ores in the hidden realms, could be obtained from them due to their large number and mixture of bad and good people.
