Cultivation: Start From Upgrading My Computer-Chapter 5

The Trade Fair (1)

This wasn’t a convention at all. It was clearly an immortal manor that occupied a large area.

In the middle of the manor was a strange-looking tower, with spiritual lights flashing.

The stalls scattered all over the manor were also unique. The stall owners were basically all at the Foundation Establishment stage. Occasionally, there were a few stall owners at the peak of the Qi Refining stage, and they all had extraordinary backgrounds.

Cheng Xu shuttled back and forth among the crowd, his eyes sizing up the stalls.

As he had expected, the goods in the high-end bureau were indeed extraordinary.

He tried to walk to a stall. The stall owner was a middle-aged man in the foundation building stage. When he saw that Cheng Xu was only in the late-stage of Qi Refining and what he was wearing, he immediately lost interest. you can take a look, but don’t touch anything.

“Junior understands.” Cheng Xu nodded nervously, but he was secretly happy.

Seeing that Cheng Xu was tactful, the stall owner didn’t say anything more and silently closed his eyes to rest.

After the graphics card was upgraded to Level 2, the reading speed had doubled from 1MB per second to 2MB per second.

In the blink of an eye, he had finished reading the two ancient scrolls on formations and the ancient scroll on alchemy.

It was worth mentioning that the data size of the ancient alchemy scroll was as large as 7.4MB. Although some of the data in it overlapped with the previous data, after the installation, the [ alchemy ] application was increased by 5.1MB.

Looking at the level of the [ medicine refining ] program, his pharmacology level had been directly raised to Level 3, and his refining ability had been raised from basic to intermediate.

His understanding of medicinal theory had also increased by a level.

“Is this the value of a high-end alchemy manual?”

While Cheng Xu was secretly amazed, his eyes wandered to the other goods. All kinds of high-quality talismans and magic weapons made him drool.

Unfortunately, he was short on money and definitely couldn’t afford it.

After looking at life and sighing, he silently walked to another stall.

This stall owner had a more irascible temper. As soon as he saw that Cheng Xu was not the target customer, he immediately drove Cheng Xu far away.

Helplessly, he could only head to the other stalls.

“Eh? Earth escape technique!”

A tattered old scroll at a stall in the corner attracted Cheng Xu’s attention.

Coincidentally, there were a few cultivators choosing other goods in front of the stall, so Cheng Xu went up and joined in the fun.

After a few seconds of reading, Cheng Xu took a deep breath.

Good Lord, an escape technique was actually 22.4 MB in size. It was obviously not simple.

After confirming the download, he installed it.

The speed of installation made Cheng Xu’s scalp tingle. The customers had already left, but the earth escape technique had not been installed successfully.

Fortunately, the data had already been loaded into the cultivation computer, so there was no need to wait in front of the stall for the installation process.

After turning the corner, there were a few brand new stalls in front of them.

Before Cheng Xu could start looking for Bai Ling’s target, he heard a familiar voice coming from the side. When he looked over, he saw that it was the bald young man from the Medicine Immortal Valley.

At this moment, the bald youth was haggling with the stall next door. He seemed to have taken a fancy to a few medicinal herbs on the stall.

“Fellow Daoist, you’re here too?” Cheng Xu stepped forward and greeted him.

“Yo ~ fellow Daoist has also come to the trade fair?” The bald youth said in surprise.

“I’m here to see the world,” Cheng Xu gave a simple perfunctory reply, then pretended to browse the goods on display.

The bald youth continued to haggle with the stall owner.

“The theoretical outline of martial arts and spell techniques?” An ancient book in the corner caught Cheng Xu’s attention.

The loading and loading process was completed in one go.

Just as he was about to install it, a [awaiting Installation] prompt popped up.

Damn ~ the [earth escape technique] just now had not been installed yet.

At the same time, the bald young man had also successfully obtained the medicinal herbs. He chatted with Cheng Xu with satisfaction, “I didn’t expect to see blood marrow grass and a type 3 black water snake’s gallbladder at the trade fair. This trip was worth it.”

“It’s a good item, but unfortunately, I can only watch from the side.” Cheng Xu sighed.

He was not trying to get close to the bald young man, but walking with the bald young man would greatly reduce the probability of being driven away by the stall owner.

“With fellow Daoist’s talent in alchemy, you won’t have to worry about not having spirit stone flowers in the future.” The bald young man laughed. by the way, I’m Miao Changsheng. May I know your name? ”

“Cheng Xu.”

brother Cheng, ” Miao Changsheng cupped his fists and said, ” “My master is still participating in the gathering of golden cores in the tower. I’m afraid we’ll have to wait a little longer to help you ask about him.”

“No rush,” Cheng Xu waved his hand and smiled.

While they were chatting, the earth escape technique was finally installed, and the theoretical outline of martial arts techniques was also installed.

The moment the installation began, Cheng Xu felt his brain go blank and entered a state of headache and fever.

“Eh? What’s wrong with you, Brother Cheng? Are you uncomfortable?”

Obviously, Miao Changsheng had noticed Cheng Xu’s unusual behavior.

“Nothing,” Cheng Xu said awkwardly, “Maybe it’s because refining medicine last night was too exhausting. My head feels a little unwell.”

Miao Changsheng, who was also an alchemist, expressed his understanding. Refining medicine is extremely taxing on the mind. It’s better to take it slowly.

Cheng Xu laughed dryly and nodded. He continued to follow Miao Changsheng around listlessly.

Ding! Ding!

“Martial arts spell data detected. Integrate martial arts application? ”

A new option popped up halfway through the installation progress bar.

The dizzy Cheng Xu didn’t even think and directly chose to confirm.

A moment later, the installation was completed.

An application labeled [ martial arts ] appeared on the cultivation computer’s desktop. He clicked on it to check:

[ martial arts skill (35.3) ]

[ martial arts theory: elementary ]

[ spell theory: elementary ]

[ martial arts skills installed: Tiger subduing fist (7MB), setting sun finger (3.5MB), cloud steps (6MB), earth escape technique (22.4), protective energy (4.8MB) ]

At the same time that his headache and fever disappeared, Cheng Xu’s entire body jolted.

His own martial arts technique had actually been integrated into something like a system with pre-installed applications.

In other words, with the expansion of the data of [ martial arts spells ], he might be able to optimize his own martial arts spells in the future?

“Ya ya ya… Quick, take a look at this!”

Miao Changsheng’s surprised voice pulled Cheng Xu back to reality.

There was a strange plant that was constantly squirming on the stall in front of him, emitting a faint black gas around it. With Cheng Xu’s current alchemy level, he could easily identify this herb.

[ Magic Cordyceps ]

[ Rarity: low ]

[ Year: 175 ]

It was no wonder that Miao Changsheng had such a big reaction. The Magic Cordyceps was rare. Although it was often used in various poisons, it could also be used as a drug primer for many high-level elixirs after the dosage was lowered. It could greatly enhance the efficacy of the elixir.

However, Miao Changsheng was not the only one who was interested in the Magic Cordyceps. There were two other Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Miao Changsheng had a medallion hanging from his waist. Naturally, he was not afraid of the two Foundation Establishment cultivators. He showed them what a true tycoon of the medicine immortal Valley was.

While Cheng Xu was secretly envious, his gaze was attracted by a bronze fragment on the stall.

At first glance, it looked like a fragment of some kind of magic treasure. However, in Cheng Xu’s eyes, the option [ read data ] flashed.

‘Could it be that there is some kind of awesome cultivation technique hidden in this fragment?’

Cheng Xu was secretly overjoyed and hurriedly began to read.

It took him more than ten seconds to successfully read it. The result was just as he had expected. It was an ancient Immortal Technique called the Evil Eye of 10,000 Spells.

Yes, you didn’t see it wrong, it’s a real Immortal Technique!

However, it was severely damaged. Even the first layer of the technique was incomplete.

But even so, it was enough to make Cheng Xu excited.

After a dozen seconds of loading, he tried to confirm the installation. He did not expect it to really work, but the installation speed was frighteningly slow, and once again, Cheng Xu fell into a state of headache and fever.

Of course, when Miao Changsheng spent a lot of money to get the Magic Cordyceps, Cheng Xu was still immersed in the excitement of obtaining the immortal Technique.

haha, I only spent three thousand spiritual stones and successfully got this Magic Cordyceps. If master finds out, won’t he praise me?” Miao Changsheng was secretly pleased.

Cheng Xu, however, was stunned. “How much did you spend?”

“3,000 spirit stones! What’s wrong? ”

“Given the color of this Magic Cordyceps, it shouldn’t be worth this price, right?” Cheng Xu had a strange expression on his face. He had been so excited that he had completely ignored Miao Changsheng’s bid.

the mid-grade Magic Cordyceps is almost two hundred years old. It should be worth at least three thousand spiritual stones, right? ” Miao Changsheng expressed his doubts.

“Are you sure it’s not a low-grade one?” Cheng Xu asked weakly.

brother Cheng, I’m afraid you’re mistaken, ” Miao Changsheng explained to Cheng Xu confidently.”The more active the magic Magic Cordyceps is, the higher the quality. How can low grade magic Magic Cordyceps be so active? And the demonic Qi in the surroundings has clearly reached the middle grade.”

Cheng Xu smiled without saying anything.

“Although brother Cheng’s talent in alchemy is not bad, there is still room for improvement in your basic knowledge!” Miao Changsheng said as he patted Cheng Xu’s shoulder in encouragement.

“Good-for-nothing!”

Before Miao Changsheng could show off for more than three seconds, his head was smacked hard from behind.

The person who came was an old man with white hair and a beard. He was slightly plump, had kind eyes, and a ruddy face.

“Master?” Miao Changsheng was shocked at first. Then, he said in an aggrieved tone, “Why did you hit me?”

“Hmph! Low-grade Magic Cordyceps can be regarded as mid-grade,” the old man said grumpily. “Why do you think I hit you?”

“Low-grade?”

Miao Changsheng looked at the Magic Cordyceps in his hand and began to doubt himself.

The old man looked at Cheng Xu with interest. little friend, you have good eyes. May I know which fellow Daoist is your master? ”

“Senior, I have no master.”

“Oh?” The old man’s eyes lit up.

Miao Changsheng was still doubting his life. “It’s really low-grade? That’s impossible…”

“Since you’ve seen through the mystery, why don’t you explain it to my good-for-nothing disciple?”

Cheng Xu smiled humbly and explained, “The reason why this Magic Cordyceps is so active is probably because it just ate and is in its best condition.”

“Not bad, not bad. You’re much better than that idiot, Changsheng.” The old man nodded in appreciation.

After listening to Cheng Xu’s explanation, Miao Changsheng finally came to his senses. He looked at Cheng Xu in shock. “Brother Cheng, how did you know?”

“The wriggling of the magic Magic Cordyceps after it is full is slightly different from its normal state.”

Miao Changsheng scratched his head in embarrassment and said angrily, “Meow, I’ll go find that person and reason with him!”

“Enough, don’t you think you’ve embarrassed yourself enough?” the old man stopped him in a bad mood.

“Alright,” he said. “I’ve embarrassed you again,” Miao Changsheng said helplessly.

“How many times have I told you to be more careful? more careful? you just won’t listen.” The old man sighed to himself, then turned to Cheng Xu with a smile. “However, this little friend of yours is not bad.”

“Oh right, this disciple was just about to tell you.”

Miao Changsheng explained Cheng Xu’s situation to him.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then fell into deep thought with a strange expression.

“Brother Cheng, this is my master, Perfected Chi Yao, the second-in-command of the Medicine Immortal Valley.” Miao Changsheng said proudly.

“Junior Cheng Xu greets Perfected Chi Yao.”

Cheng Xu hurriedly paid his respects again. He did not expect Miao Changsheng to be Perfected Chi Yao’s disciple.

He had only heard of Perfected Chi Yao’s name before, but had never seen him in person.
