However," Lu Xiaitian nodded in agreement and then said, "but for the questions I ask, you better answer truthfully. If I ever find out that your answers differ from the facts, the previous person's fate will be yours."

Through Lü Bifeng's words, it turned out that the Situ family had been a cultivating family in Liangzhou for over a hundred years. The Situ family has five members in total. His leader is Situ Yong, who cultivates at four tenths of Qi Refinement, the highest cultivation level among the Situ family. Another member is the deceased Situ Jing's uncle, whose cultivation is unknown but wouldn't exceed three layers of Qi Refinement. There is also a young disciple, Situ Ming, who is only at the first layer of Qi Refinement.

Later, the Situ family moved their entire clan to a distant fairy city called Moon-Gazing City. There were countless cultivators there, with numbers of those at the middle, late, and great perfection stages of Qi Refinement being uncountable.

He was also learning for the first time that above the Qi Refining Stage, there was the Foundation Establishment Stage. At this stage, one could fly with a sword, cleave mountains and split stones, and travel through the skies and underground. Cultivators who reached the Foundation Establishment Stage had lifespans of two or three hundred years.

Lu Xiaoxian was filled with longing. He had never been approached by anyone before. Now he learned that cultivators also had their own gathering places, the Moonlit Immortal City! Besides Moonlit City, there were other large immortal sects in other places. Those sects were the rulers of the immortal world.

Families like the Situ clan, entrenched in a single province of the mortal realm, are merely insignificant fringe forces in the cultivation world, countless in number.

Lu Xia Tian asked again, "These people from the Situ family are cultivators. Why would they interfere with the affairs of ordinary people What benefit do they gain"

“This mortal realm is where few spiritual creatures are born. If it weren't for angering the wrong people in Moon Viewing City, the Si Tu family wouldn't have been forced to flee back to their Liangzhou stronghold. Their numbers were limited, and they simply didn't have time to search for spiritual creatures. Therefore, they controlled these underworld gangs to find spiritual herbs and stones, to be used in their cultivation.” Lü Bìfèng said.

"So this deceased Situ Jing learned that I bought three sprigs of Zijin grass from Miaozhi Hall, and he came over immediately"

Lu Xiaitian suddenly realized, this made sense. The Situ family controlled the power in the Jianghu and had numerous informants. If he appeared in Pingwuxian City, it would be easy for him to be discovered.

Lu Bifeng nodded and said, "Exactly!"

"The spirit stones you're talking about, are these the ones What use do they have" Lu Xia Tian thought of the spirit-infused stones in his storage pouch, and took out a red one to ask.

>

"That's right, this is a low-grade fire spirit stone. When fighting with people, mana consumption is too fast. You can hold it in your hand to absorb its spiritual energy and replenish mana. In addition, some artifacts and formations also require spirit stones."

Lü Bifeng smiled bitterly and said, she could now be sure that the young man in front of her was just an ordinary casual cultivator. He didn't even understand the most basic spirit stones. She really didn't know how he became a cultivator. What was even more bizarre was that he had actually subdued a powerful leopard spirit beast. It was truly unbelievable.

“Energy Pill!” What followed was even more unbelievable. Her jaw hung open, unable to close for a long time.

Lu Xia Tian touched his nose, at this time he figured out what some things on his body were. Yuan Qi Dan was a medicinal pill used by cultivators in the later stages of refining qi and when they reached the peak of refining qi. Cultivators in the early stage of refining qi usually didn't have many Gathering Qi Pills on them. He could take out medicinal pills that could only be used in the later stages of refining qi, which was naturally shocking to Lü Bi Feng. If this woman knew there were two more bottles of Yuan Qi Dan in his storage bag, she wouldn't know what expression she would have.

Last question, how do I get to the Moonlit Fairy City

The woman in red said, "From Liangzhou, all the way west, you'll have to pass through over ten secular countries such as Wei, Wu, and Beizhou. The journey is long, spanning tens of thousands of miles. But I must warn you, not everyone can reach the Moonlit Immortal City."

"Why, is the Moon Gazing Immortal City dangerous" Lu Xia Tian asked in puzzlement.

"Moonviewing Immortal City is a gathering place for casual cultivators, and there are also some immortal sects stationed there. Tens of thousands of casual cultivators live there, while the number of cultivators who enter and leave the city is several times that. Like you, a cultivator at the first level of Qi refining, you can only do the most menial jobs in the city. Your status is only slightly higher than that of secular martial artists. If you are not outstandingly talented and noticed by a major sect to be taken in, it is likely that you will spend your entire life doing hard labor to earn spirit stones, and you will probably not be able to cultivate to a high level."

"There are so many wandering cultivators in Wangu City, haven't they all joined a sect Is it that wandering cultivators can only do menial work and can't become successful" Lu Xiaodao said.

The woman in the red dress sneered, “There are certainly powerful cultivators among the scattered immortals. Many scattered cultivators gather in Moon Viewing Immortal City because the Moon Viewing Mountain Range near it is full of countless spiritual creatures. Many scattered cultivators seek out these spiritual creatures within the mountain range to cultivate. However, there are countless demon beasts in the mountains, and other treasure-seeking cultivators often engage in treachery. A cultivator like you, only at the first level of Qi Refinement, will probably become a pile of bones in just a few days.”

After hearing the red-clothed woman's words, Lu Xiaoteng felt a sense of calculation in his heart. From the tone of the black-robed elder and the red-clothed woman, as well as his experiences along the way, everything showed that the cultivation world was a place of survival of the fittest. The competition was even more intense than among ordinary mortals. However, this did not affect his determination to pursue the path of cultivation.

"Before, your spirit beast seemed to come out from the storage pouch on your body. That bag belongs to me now."

Lu Xia Tian reached out and took the red pouch from the woman in the red dress. The last two times he had entered Pingwu County, he had left his flower leopard waiting in the wilderness because it was inconvenient to bring it with him. However, after his fight with the young man in gold, he realized that his own strength was insufficient. If he didn't have the flower leopard, if he encountered the young man in gold within the city, he would only be forced to flee in desperation. He probably wouldn't be able to escape the other party's grasp. Besides, without magic, he couldn't escape the other party's clutches either.

Seeing that Lu Xiaitian only took her spirit beast pouch, the woman in red let out a sigh of relief. If she had met someone more ruthless, she probably wouldn't have lived to see this day. Although the young man before her was also decisive and ruthless, he at least kept his word and didn't act treacherously. The sniffing demon rat was nowhere to be found now, besides occasionally looking for people, it wasn't much of a fighting force. The spirit beast pouch being taken by the young man in front of her didn't cause her much loss.

“When do you plan to let me go” the woman in red asked, voicing her most pressing concern.

"When I think I am safe enough, I will naturally let you go. For now, just bear with me and stay in the cave for a while."

>

Lu Xia Tian smiled faintly. According to the woman, since Si Tu Jing had died, the Si Tu family would definitely search the world for the culprit. Her father was a master of the Qi Refining Mid stage, and even with Hua Pao, they weren't his opponents. For now, he should stay in the mountains for a while, waiting for the wind to die down before making any further plans. At this moment, he had received the information he wanted. The Wulin Grand Assembly, which he originally planned to attend, was no longer important to him. As for this woman releasing his whereabouts, it wasn't impossible. In any case, one should always be wary of others.

Throwing the girl inside, Lu Xia Tian excitedly walked out of the cave, carefully taking out the Low-Rank Spell Treatise and studying it intently. Ever since he started practicing the Hun Yuan Jing, he had been longing to learn spells, but it wasn't until now, nearly a year and a half later, that he got his chance.

According to the introduction in the Art of Spells, as long as one is a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage, they can practice low-level spells. However, cultivating corresponding spells according to one's own attributes will be relatively faster. It's just that Lu Xiaoteng doesn't understand which branch of the Five Elements he belongs to.

Since the spells in the Spellbook are cultivated faster than those from other sources, learning them separately should make it clear which one is correct. Lu Xiaotian pondered for a moment and thought this way.

Moments later, a golden short spear appeared before Lu Xia Tian. It moved slowly and erratically towards a large tree several dozen meters away.

This speed, not to mention hitting the enemy, it would be difficult even to hit a target. Lu Xia Tian frowned and discovered that his Golden Spear technique was far inferior to the techniques displayed by the young man in golden robes and the old man in black robes.

Puzzled, he ran back to the cave and asked Lü Bifen. He learned that even spells needed practice and familiarity before they could be used against an enemy. Lu Xiaoteng's face flushed red as he thought to himself, "I didn't even consider this most basic truth just now. Even martial artists have to hone a single martial technique hundreds or thousands of times before they become familiar with it. Spells are naturally the same."

Lu Xiaotian repeatedly used the Jin Mao Shu, although his aim was still not accurate enough, and it took a long time to accumulate mana. However, compared to the first time, he had made great progress. He was eager to learn and prepare to try another spell, but he found that the yuan qi in his dantian had almost run out.

The consumption of mana by the spell was surprisingly large. Lu Xiaoteng was taken aback. Thinking of Lv Bifeng's words that spirit stones could help recover mana, Lu Xiaoteng took out a gold spirit stone from his storage bag and held it in his hand. A steady stream of pure golden spiritual energy indeed flowed from the spirit stone into his body.

Lu Xiaoteng's spirit lifted, he couldn't control himself for a moment, repeatedly using the powerful gold spear technique.

With a click! A low sound came from his left hand. He looked down, and the previously glittering spirit stone had now become dull powder, spilling out from between his fingers. A piece of inferior gold spirit stone was already used up. Lu Xiaoteng felt a pang of pain. It seemed that in the future, he would still have to rely on meditation to restore his energy, otherwise, if he kept using spirit stones like this, they would run out soon. Spirit stones were so powerful; it was best to save them for more important times.

Over the next few days, Lu Xia Tian was practicing magic spells with great enthusiasm. However, what puzzled him was that his cultivation speed for the five elements (gold, wood, water, fire, earth) was the same, only ice, wind, and thunder were slower. When he told Lü Bifen this result, she was astonished and sympathetically looked at him, saying that this kind of aptitude was the worst-quality five-element mixed spiritual root. It was probably that even with all his efforts for a lifetime, reaching the late stage of Qi Refining would already be considered very good.

At this moment, Lu Xia Tian finally remembered what the old man in black had said about his poor aptitude. It turned out that the old guy had known all along, but he just didn't tell him.

Lu XiaTian felt a little disheartened, but he didn't give up. His passion for cultivation remained as high as ever. He practiced various spells every day. When the zhenqi in his dantian was almost depleted, he would sit down to recover. Day after day.
