Chapter 665: Chapter 665 The Origin of Tai Chi Breathing Technique Chapter 665: Chapter 665 The Origin of Tai Chi Breathing Technique Huang Fu Wuxia was a woman of great decisiveness.
In fact, at this moment, she had no room for indecision–the ancestors had said that the person backing him was definitely beyond Nascent Soul.
What did 'beyond Nascent Soul' mean? There were no Immortals in the Emergence Stage in this realm, not to mention that the ancestor had also mentioned it might even exceed Emergence.
Her investigation showed that Feng Jun's emergence was very abrupt, and he was not very familiar with this realm.
Many speculated that this person was dispatched by some extraordinary power that emerges once in a blue moon.
But at this moment, Chairman Huang Fu could ascertain that the individual was actually from another Higher Realm.
The Higher Realm was something she respected, but not something she feared deeply, for the Tiantong Commercial Alliance existed not only in this realm–Nascent Soul, Emergence Stage, and the like, the Tiantong Commercial Alliance had them all.
But… She couldn't invite those powerful beings, and even inviting the Golden Core Ancestor of her own household was not so easy.
However, she estimated that it wouldn't be easy for the other party to use someone in the Emergence Stage–how many realms are there between Qi Refinement and Emergence?
Even if this Qi Refinement Realm cultivator were the son of someone in Emergence Stage, it wouldn't negate the many levels in between.
If it were a son valued by someone in Emergence Stage, with just a little care, he would have been at least Golden Core already.
In short, she held respect in her heart, but she wasn't afraid.
Seeing that Feng Jun was displeased, she smiled instead, “Since Daoist friend Feng is well-versed in business, you must understand that to expand business, it's necessary to enhance mutual understanding… Actually, when you saw the price I offered, you should have been on guard.”
Hearing this, Feng Jun almost laughed in anger, “So it's my fault now?”
Huang Fu Wuxia replied with a smile, “Alright, it's my fault. What kind of compensation do you want? Oh, and I truly did undercharge you by four hundred.”
“It's just that I'm irritated,” Feng Jun really wanted to know what exactly had happened, but he was worried that asking too much might raise her suspicions, so after some thought, he spoke gravely, “What can you compensate me with?”
“How about a Cultivation Technique?” Huang Fu Wuxia answered seriously, “As long as it's not a fundamental technique.”
Hearing about Cultivation Techniques, Feng Jun thought of Zhang Caixin, who was diligently practicing. Her cultivation speed improved by leaps and bounds, and entering the Qi Refinement Realm was only a matter of time, while he lacked an Water System Immortal Cultivation Technique in his hands.
Nevertheless, he couldn't just ask outright. At the moment, he could say he was collecting various techniques as part of his worldly trials, and no one could say anything about it. But if he asked for a specific technique, others might become suspicious–don't you have a similar technique of your own?
After some thought, he spoke gravely, “Tai Chi Breathing Technique… do you have it?”
“Tai Chi… Breathing?” Huang Fu Wuxia blinked and shook her head slowly, “I truly don't have that. It's known as an Ancient Qi Practitioner's body tempering method; I heard that the authentic technique is lost. Some modified versions exist but are also difficult to cultivate and very likely to lead to cultivation deviation.”
Feng Jun had always been inquiring about the roots of the breathing technique he used during his Martial Cultivation days. Today, he finally got his answer. The Tiantong Commercial Alliance did indeed live up to its reputation as a super business; Huang Fu Wuxia's knowledge was befitting of her position as chairman.
Still, some things puzzled him, “Very likely to lead to cultivation deviation?”
He had originally thought, if such a technique were that good, he could teach it to his disciples with good nature in the future.
“It's said that even the authentic version isn't easy to cultivate,” Chairman Huang Fu spoke leisurely, “The Tiantong Commercial Alliance is also looking for this breathing technique. If we can obtain the authentic one, just the reward from headquarters alone is ten thousand Spirit Stones.”
“Ten thousand Spirit Stones?” Feng Jun grimaced, asking in surprise, “If I'm not mistaken, isn't that just a Martial Cultivation Technique?”
“A good Martial Cultivation Technique can be more expensive than an Immortal Cultivation Technique,” Huang Fu Wuxia answered without hesitation, “The Mystic Element Sword Technique once sold for fifty thousand Spirit Stones.”
With this explanation, Feng Jun couldn't be bothered to inquire further. He thought back to the first secret manual he obtained, which was Tai Chi Breathing Technique and Mystic Element Sword Technique, and felt as if there was some sort of destiny at play.
So he shook his head, “Never mind, just give me a copy of 'Telepathy,' a beast taming technique… Yes, with the imprint, is that alright?”
“Alright,” Huang Fu Wuxia nodded her head. Although she had to give away another secret manual worth five hundred Spirit Stones, it was still good that the issue could be settled. Moreover… frankly speaking, she hadn't acquired that manual for five hundred Spirit Stones.
But there was one point she still had to emphasize, “The one with the imprint isn't kept at the branch; they would need to bring it from the Immortal Market. Such an item certainly requires an escort… it will take about half a month to a month.”
Her words, in theory, were correct–a five hundred Spirit Stone valuable was indeed worth risking one's life over. However, the last Essence Blood Control Technique manual was sent directly using a Teleportation Formation combined with a flying falcon, and it only took two days.
Therefore, she was still delaying, the longer the delay, the more reason she would have to spend extra time on Mount Zhige.
The affairs of the Tiantong Commercial Alliance Eastern Branch weren't numerous; most tasks could be completed by mere mortal martial cultivators. As the chairman, she didn't have much to do either, her existence primarily served to deal with unexpected incidents.
Feng Jun didn't know these details. Hearing it would take half a month to a month, his eyebrows furrowed, “That long?”
Huang Fu Flawless cast a curious glance at him, “Why, are you in a hurry to get it?”
“Not really in a hurry,” Feng Jun shook his head, he just had his own plans, “I was thinking, once things are stable here, I'd like to take a trip to the Immortal Market. It might take some time… How about you don't have them bring it along and I'll collect it from your Tiantong after I visit the Immortal Market?”
Huang Fu Flawless blinked, her questioning clear, “Aren't you practicing Worldly Trials? What do you want in the Immortal Market?”
Practicing Worldly Trials doesn't mean I won't go to the Immortal Market,” Feng Jun looked at her with a hint of surprise, “I need to replenish supplies, and I have some things to sell as well. As you know, I'm quite poor.”
But Huang Fu Flawless didn't want him to go to the Immortal Market. In her mind, she had painstakingly uncovered clues and finally discovered a potential major power – why should she let others take a share?
Fortune is not just about encountering an opportunity, but also about being able to seize it.
So she was quick to volunteer, “Leave such matters to me. What you want, give me a list; what you want to sell, hand it over to me. I guarantee you'll get a better deal than if you went and negotiated yourself.”
Feng Jun looked at her with suspicion, “Why do I always feel like you might be up to something?”
“Fellow Daoist Feng, you're mistaken,” Huang Fu Flawless retorted, her expression serious, “In the Immortal Market, anyone could harbor ill intentions towards you, but I would never do such a thing. Wasn't one test enough for you?”
Feng Jun couldn't help but laugh in silence, inwardly admiring the woman. Not only was she exceptionally shrewd, but she was also unafraid to acknowledge her mistakes – truly someone who could take responsibility and let go.
In all honesty, he wasn't in a hurry to visit the Immortal Market. After all, his identity wouldn't withstand scrutiny – like a child holding gold in a bustling market, it was too easy to attract envy. It was best to cultivate quietly and lay low until advancing to the Emergence Stage.
What was that saying again? Sleazy development.
Right now, he had quite a few martial cultivation and immortal cultivation techniques at hand. Although far from sufficient, he didn't have many spirit stones.
If the price of cultivation techniques was anything like what Tiantong Commercial Alliance charged, then even if he went to the Immortal Market, he wouldn't be able to afford more than two; worse, he would run out of spirit stones needed for cultivation. Rather than that, it might be better to find another Wonderful Hand Pavilion branch to take down.
However, he was well aware that entrusting both his selling and purchasing rights to the Tiantong Commercial Alliance wasn't a prudent move. No matter how appealing Huang Fu Flawless made it sound, the Earth Realm had too many examples of the peril in letting others control one's economic lifeline.
The “Plane Barrier Force” behind him could certainly make others hesitate to underestimate him, but the issue was that he couldn't use that kind of power at will.
It was like the Earth Realm's Bei Xinluo – even if they had mushrooms, if someone choked their economic throat, their life was still miserable, wasn't it?
In fact, putting oneself in the other's shoes, if he were Huang Fu Flawless and came across someone with a significant background willing to entrust selling and buying rights, he would also wonder: Is this person too naive, or is there an unspeakable secret?
Most importantly, there were things he simply had to go to the Immortal Market to accomplish.
So he replied with a smile, “I have a friend who's looking to advance, and after all, the spiritual energy in this mortal world is somewhat scarce. There should be Spirit Lands for rent in the Immortal Market, right? I just need to inquire on his behalf.”
Huang Fu Flawless clapped her hands, simply stating, “This is fortunate, for my Tiantong Commercial Alliance provides just such a service. Practicing in our Tiantong's Spirit Land would be best, and the price is negotiable.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jun's smile faded, and he spoke firmly, “Chairman Huang Fu, besides your establishment, there are other businesses in the Immortal Market. Do you really want to monopolize the deal with me?”
“Fellow Daoist Feng, you worry too much,” Chairman Huang Fu replied earnestly, “I may have been presumptuous before, but now, I simply wish to forge a good relationship with you while saving you from unnecessary troubles. As for my long-term plans…”
“We can support each other; surely becoming a Golden Core Master shouldn't be our ultimate goal. I wonder, are you willing to believe that?”
“Straightforward!” Feng Jun gave a thumbs up, “But I will still visit the Immortal Market. As this place is the mortal world, it's natural that the spiritual energy is scarce and unsuitable for setting up a large Spirit Gathering Array… Even if your Tiantong Commercial Alliance is here, you can't disrupt the rules, right?”
Huang Fu Flawless pondered for a moment, then spoke, “What is the cultivation level of your friend?”
“Intermediate Level of the Emergence Stage, seeking to advance,” Feng Jun had no fear of telling such a lie; if it came down to it, he could just say he couldn't get in touch.
Huang Fu Flawless asked gravely, “If I have another method that can help your friend advance, would you be willing to let me handle the business for you?”
Feng Jun blinked, perplexed, “Why are you so intent on managing my affairs for me?”
“Because the items you have brought forth form a system,” Huang Fu Flawless revealed another surprise, “My Tiantong Commercial Alliance would not claim to monopolize it, but we have already gotten a head start, and naturally, we do not wish to fall behind others.”
