Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Li Mo Has Quite a Reputation

Li Mo immediately realized that the sudden appearance of Multiple Limb Syndrome was not as simple as it seemed—it likely hid a deeper mystery.

"Fuxing Town..."

It was said that the meat mountain in Fuxing Town, comprised of countless limbs, had already exceeded a kilometer in size.

Li Mo observed the reactions of the other cultivators, and the result was telling—only Han Cai wore a gloomy expression, while the rest displayed undisguised eagerness.

They were staring intently at the auction items, their breathing quickened.

Li Mo sighed softly.

For most cultivators, there was no point in overthinking; extracting tangible benefits was what truly mattered.

"The cultivation technique pertains to Multiple Limb Syndrome and is under the custodianship of Rong Town."

Manager Tian directly proclaimed ownership of the technique, sweeping his gaze over the other cultivators, gradually calming the out-of-control auction.

From the information revealed through his skull, Li Mo found that the cultivation method was highly refined, sufficient to cultivate up to the Golden Core Formation stage in the Thirty Years Old Stage.

Indeed, it was a superior cultivation method.

Manager Tian, wearing a smile, used Divine Thought to contact the Weak Crown Stage practitioners of the pawn shop. Han Cai and Hu Wen immediately departed for the outside world.

As a Loose Cultivator, Futu Hermit had no qualifications to touch the cultivation method.

However, relying on Han Cai and Hu Wen, he undoubtedly stood a chance of breaking through the bottleneck of Weak Crown Perfection in the future, and his repressed joy was written all over his face.

Not long after, the auction items were divided among the Weak Crown Stage practitioners of Rong Town.

The conditions they paid for the auction were merely cultivation insights, showing that the Great Power clearly intended to disseminate the peculiar and enigmatic multi-limb cultivation techniques.

The Loose Cultivators did not participate, but they showed no signs of resentment.

Because under the tacit approval of Rong Town’s manager, several techniques sufficient for Foundation Establishment were deliberately released, with bidding prices even Loose Cultivators could afford.

Li Mo had just wanted to see if any cultivation methods suited him when Han Cai and Hu Wen, looking exhilarated, returned to the brothel.

He heard Han Cai murmuring something about the Taishang Thousand Feet Technique.

Futu Hermit quickly inquired, "Han Cai, is there hope for breaking through to a Thirty Years Old Stage Golden Core?"

"Taking a Little Human Head during the Core Formation is required. I certainly can’t reach the Thirty Years Old Stage in a short time, but I’m confident in advancing to the Fake Core Stage first."

The so-called Fake Core Stage refers to when the Spiritual Power in the Middle Dantian is continuously compressed, surpassing the realm of the Weak Crown Stage but not yet condensed into a Golden Core.

Spiritual Power in this stage is half-illusory and half-tangible, commonly referred to as the Fake Core Stage among cultivators.

"Ah, the Little Human Head, capable of stimulating Spiritual Power to transform from illusory to tangible, is truly rare."

Futu Hermit shook his head in frustration. The Little Human Head was a spiritual material specialized for Core Formation, and Rong Town only released a limited quota once every hundred years.

Hu Wen chimed in, "I probably won’t cultivate the multi-limb techniques released at the auction. They simply don’t align with the spells I’ve mastered."

Magic is the pursuit of survival skills, while spells are methods of self-preservation.

The two are complementary to each other, and Hu Wen’s reservations were understandable. Besides, they all knew deep down that the multi-limb techniques undoubtedly held some concealed secrets.

Han Cai suddenly remarked, "By the way, Li Mo, you are Manager Tian’s appointed Daoist; you can cultivate the Taishang Thousand Feet Technique alongside me."

Li Mo quickly declined, "Master Han, allow me to first browse the available cultivation techniques. After all, the Universal Skillful Hand is not my primary focus in Magic."

"Fair enough."

"If you can’t find a suitable technique, I will personally secure one for you."

Han Cai’s mood visibly brightened when Li Mo addressed him as "Master Han."

Having Li Mo as his convenient disciple really boosted Han Cai’s sense of pride. He then stuffed three hundred Mid-grade Spirit Stones into Li Mo’s hands.

After thanking him, Li Mo climbed out through a window.

During this time, the Great Power released two more rounds of auction items, still consisting of magic techniques.

This time, however, the Rong Town manager did not restrict Loose Cultivators from participating; the auction items were incomplete techniques, at best suitable for cultivation only up to the Weak Crown Stage.

Li Mo became even more interested in incomplete cultivation methods. With the Primordial Dao Seed in his possession, perfecting a cultivation technique was not a difficult task.

The key lay in the characteristics exhibited by each cultivation method, such as the pure Spiritual Power of the Yang Yuan Ben Jing technique.

Li Mo looked up at the clouds.

Two figures had already vanished—clearly, the auction had concluded.

Without hesitation, Li Mo joined the bidding for the magic techniques. Beneath his feet surfaced a small Kun Whale, over two meters long, which carried him flying at low altitudes.

Loose Cultivators quickly stepped back several meters, wary of offending Li Mo.

The impression Li Mo left on them was of someone cold and ruthless, a cultivator who would kill without even a frown.

The moniker of Golden Sand Taoist had long since faded, replaced by "Four-legged True Man."

"Four-legged True Man" derived from the saying, "Four legs and fur define a beast," likening Li Mo to a ferocious four-legged creature—a compliment in the context of Heart Beasts.

Even fellow cultivators from Rong Town regarded Li Mo with trepidation.

A prodigy with such a steady Tao Heart and astonishing talents in all areas was nearly guaranteed to ascend to the Weak Crown Stage.

With Han Cai’s support, Li Mo purchased several incomplete cultivation techniques in succession, as the Primordial Dao Seed ravenously absorbed their essence and rapidly grew stronger.

He noticed that most of the magic techniques released by the Great Power were extreme in nature, and many involved additional limbs, requiring transplantation of arms and legs.

Li Mo skimmed over these and quickly dismissed them.

A few techniques, however, struck him as particularly unique: the **Five Poison Scripture**, which involved raising Gu Worms; the **Nine Yin Iron Bone Skill**, which hardened bones; and the **Life-Bending Skill**, which allowed skin to mimic beast hides.

But none of them aligned with his Mist Fog Spiritual Power, so he had to forgo them.

"Li Mo."

Li Mo’s brow furrowed as he heard someone calling his name in the distance. Turning his head, he saw a familiar female cultivator in a black robe.

"Qingqiu, what do you want from me?"

"Take this."

Qingqiu Taoist tossed a human slip to Li Mo before indifferently stating, "Help me refine a Mid-grade Magic Artifact Embryo, and this magic technique will be yours."

Li Mo glanced at the information on the human slip.

"Oh?"

The human slip recorded a magic technique called the Multi-legged Soul Spider Spell, containing content for both childhood and the Weak Crown Stage—considered remarkably complete.

Upon mastering the Multi-legged Soul Spider Spell, one could manifest the ethereal limbs of soul spiders through the skill.

Soul spiders were spiritual materials residing in shadows, with bodies composed of Yin Spiritual Power. Timid and cautious by nature, they were exceedingly difficult to capture.

From the Multi-legged Soul Spider Spell, Li Mo glimpsed a potential way to elevate the Universal Skillful Hand by substituting the "Multi-hand" modification step with it.

He took a brief look at Qingqiu Taoist and then spoke, "Once I’m capable of refining a Mid-grade Magic Artifact Embryo, how should I contact you?"

"If alive, I’ll frequent the Heart Beast Black Market."

After these words, Qingqiu Taoist disappeared aboard a small magic vessel, leaving without a trace—a testament to her exceptional skills in concealing herself.

"Four-legged True Man, I also have techniques on hand; come take a look!"

"Brother Li Mo, would you be interested in eye-related magic?"

"Li Mo, this cultivation method is absolutely one of a kind..."

Thanks to Qingqiu Taoist’s association, the Loose Cultivators saw an opening to connect with Li Mo, presenting their magic techniques as tokens of goodwill.

Securing Li Mo’s promise to refine artifacts, even if only verbally, carried significant weight.

Li Mo was happy to oblige—he examined one technique after another from the Loose Cultivators’ auction acquisitions and soon made some significant discoveries, perhaps even too delightful to believe.

This technique lacked a third of its content, but its core cultivation principles remained intact, benefiting both the Hui Qingyi skill and the Five Internal Organs Divine Abilities.

As Li Mo carefully read through it, he realized that with the help of the Primordial Dao Seed, completing the technique would be no challenge at all.
