Chapter 317: Chapter 0317: Easy Suppression

Qian Youdao’s talisman was named Yin Malevolence Talisman, and it was the trump card of his sect.

Refined within a tarn filled with noxious miasma, as soon as it was activated, the room suddenly turned cold.

A surge of white Yin Malevolence Qi gathered in the air, turning into a hundred venomous snakes that swiftly darted towards the young servant.

The young servant was immediately startled, not expecting Qian Youdao to have such a technique up his sleeve.

He hurriedly cried out to his master for help.

"Such trifling techniques, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

Cai Jiu sneered coldly, unsealing his hands, rapidly drawing Taihua’s Power from all around.

Then, with a fierce clap of his hands, a booming sound erupted, much like distant thunder, as streams of golden light burst forth from his palms.

The light collided with the nefarious Qi, instantly shattering the venomous miasma snakes into pieces.

The two, one on the offense and one on the defense, left all the wealthy onlookers utterly shocked.

This was no movie, but a real battle of spells.

The light just now, that temperature, that exploding sound—all manifested out of thin air, as if by magic.

This was true spellcasting, truly an eye-opener for everyone.

Qian Youdao’s forehead broke out in sweat, and he said to Cai Jiu incredulously, "Void Seal Technique, have you become a Practitioner?"

Cai Jiu snorted lightly, "At least you have some insight. Using the Yin Malevolence Qi to harm my disciple, what punishment do you deserve?"

Qian Youdao’s legs instantly turned to jelly, his previous momentum gone, shrinking like a sheep before a wolf, and he immediately knelt before Cai Jiu to beg for forgiveness, "Mage, please forgive me, your disciple had no intention to offend, please spare me this once!"

All the rich onlookers furrowed their brows; Qian Youdao was quite a prominent figure in Binhai City.

Yet, in front of Cai Jiu, he was groveling like a dog.

Being well into his sixties, his kneeling before Cai Jiu was rather comical.

Shen Yan’er looked at Long Fei with a meaningful gaze as if to say, "See, this is the Cultivation World."

A world where the strong prey upon the weak, and strength is the only rule.

Only if your cultivation level is high can you make an older man who entered the path sooner grovel at your feet and beg for mercy.

Long Fei was also surprised as he glanced at Cai Jiu; a so-called Practitioner was actually the later stage designation within the Foundation Establishment Realm.

He had already touched the spiritual realm, which was entirely different from the usual Essential Qi and True Qi.

Essential Qi and True Qi are the bursting forces of the physical body, more aligned with body cultivators.

By cultivation level, his current stage at the early phase of the Foundation Establishment Realm was two levels behind Cai Jiu.

What made him special was that his body had been transformed by the Dragon Blood within the jade pendant.

Before he successfully established his foundation, he had already been in touch with the spiritual realm.

Abilities such as x-ray vision and telekinesis were techniques from this realm.

With this advantage, his cultivation level was on par with Cai Jiu’s.

Being a Practitioner, one can be called "Mage"!

In the Buddhist Sect, they are addressed as "Master"!

That is to say, those with mana are usually the masters presiding over rituals and fasting within the Daoist sect.

Long Fei touched the Fire Thunder Talisman in his pocket, thinking how lucky he was to have prepared it ahead of time.

Otherwise, relying on just physical strength, it would indeed have been challenging to deal with this mage from Xianggang.

Qian Youdao, being one of Fourth Master Shen’s men, was on the floor kowtowing and begging for mercy, which upset Fourth Master Shen greatly.

He Hongtao noticed this and hastily intervened, saying to Cai Jiu, "Master Cai, let’s talk about the compass first, shall we? Master Qian didn’t mean any harm; let’s not stoop to his level."

The others followed suit, echoing, "Yes, Master Cai. Please show us the mysteries of the compass; we can hardly wait."

"Master Cai, harmony is most valuable; let’s not disturb the peace here!"

The crowd gave Cai Jiu enough face, and he finally hummed softly and put on an air of grandeur, flicking his hand dismissively at Qian Youdao, "Stand up! From now on, do not rely on your tricks too much, lest you embarrass yourself again."

Qian Youdao nodded repeatedly, scared into sweating profusely.

Cai Jiu, as a Practitioner, had now completely transcended the mundane rules of society.

If Mage Cai killed him, then so be it.

The secular authorities could investigate, but with the use of mana, he could escape and be fine.

It’s these kinds of unruly people who are the most terrifying.

After sitting down, he dared not offend Mage Cai any further.

Mage Cai had complete control over the situation, exuding a superior’s presence that made Fourth Master Shen quite uncomfortable.

For the first time, Fourth Master Shen realized that no matter how prominent the secular elites were,

they were powerless in front of these cultivators.

Without befriending a few powerful figures, it would be really difficult to deal with these people in the future.

Mage Cai picked up the compass and began to instruct everyone, "This magical treasure was refined by me when I was thirty, and it has been with me for more than a decade. Please look, the material of this compass is the rare golden silk phoebe. This wood is of a yang nature, and combined with the array I’ve inscribed on it, it has the effect of suppressing malevolent yin and protecting one’s home. However, that’s not the unique feature of this treasure. Its greatest function is to attract spiritual energy, which can extend one’s lifespan."

As he spoke, he covered the compass with both hands, adjusting the direction of the heavenly stems and earthly branches.

The compass was divided into two parts, with the middle disk rotating according to the direction indicated by the pointer.

This altered the magnetic field, pulling the surrounding spiritual energy into the compass.

The Shen residence was located in a wetland park, where spiritual energy was already abundant.

As the magnetic field of the compass changed, threads and strands of spiritual energy surged into the house from outside.

All the people present suddenly breathed more easily, their pores expanding as if they were showering under a waterfall.

Their entire bodies felt an indescribable sense of relaxation.

"Divine artifact, it indeed is a divine artifact!"

"To live in such an environment would surely add hundreds of years to one’s life."

"This compass is so magical, even more effective than the air purifiers at home. What’s going on? Why has the air in the room suddenly become so comfortable?"

"..."

A group of wealthy individuals all expressed their admiration, being ordinary people who had never before felt the nourishment of spiritual energy.

Long Fei paid special attention to Shen Yan’er, who did not show any surprise.

Lin Yingying was the same, having already experienced it with Long Fei at Dongyang Mountain.

Spiritual energy is similar to purified oxygen.

Without any impurities, one breath could make a person feel completely relaxed and ready to ascend.

This was a type of pleasure that no other thing could provide.

Mage Cai turned the compass, adjusted the direction, and the spiritual energy in the room dissipated, quickly returning to how it was before.

The people took another breath and immediately started coughing.

It was as if they had suddenly moved from a dust-free space to a foul-smelling latrine, causing them all to frown instantly.

Mage Cai, full of pride, knew that they were hooked.

He opened his mouth and said, "I’ve come to the north this time to make a good connection with you all. This compass will be given to someone with destiny. My dear friends, which one of you is the person with destiny?"

The implication in his words couldn’t be clearer – it was a call for them to put their money forward.

Someone was already impatient, saying, "Master Cai, I am willing to offer five million in donations to forge a good relationship with you."

"Old Zhou, you’re being too stingy. I’m willing to offer ten million to establish this bond with Master Cai."

"Ten million for a magical treasure? You’re all insulting Master Cai. My Tan Family will offer twenty million," said Tan Lei, Tan Yaozong’s father, known as the Sea Dragon King for his monopoly on seafood wholesaling and quite famous in the circles where everyone greeted him as ’Ninth Master’."

It was the first time Long Fei had seen him and looked on with interest.

He bore some resemblance to Sixth Master Tan, but he was fatter and had the air of a nouveau riche.

In the heat of summer, he wore a plain black tank top without any regard for propriety.

The embroidery of the Azure Dragon on his arm was exposed, making him look like some street thug, nothing like a businessman.
