Chapter 10: Ascending to the Spiritual Realm
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone at the table was shocked, some even dropped their chopsticks in surprise.

Mr. Cui Sanye is not just any ordinary person.

He has been rooted in Tianan Village for many years, and his cultivation has long entered the realm of sealing the furnace, and he may break out of the furnace at any time.

Rumor has it that he has already broken through and sealed the furnace, but has not made it public yet!

Not to mention that, the Tian'an Hall under his command is fully equipped with all the necessary equipment and is a strong force.

Asking him for a seal of office is simply courting death!
"Hahaha, it seems that Brother Long has lost his tolerance for alcohol and is talking nonsense while drunk! Mancang, quickly help Brother Long go down to rest!"

Gu Yunli glanced at everyone at the table calmly, and seeing that no one responded, he laughed and smoothed over the matter without leaving a trace.

Zhao Mancang, who was serving nearby, hurried over to support Chi Longwang.

The landlord, who was already feeling very uneasy, also took advantage of the situation and went away in large numbers, either supporting or caring about the people.

Not long after, the banquet that was lively and bustling one moment became a mess and the guests dispersed the next moment.

Seeing this, Gu Yunli shook his head, stood up and left.

When he returned to the main hall of the underground palace, he immediately summoned Bu Shansheng and said frankly, "I just received news that the seal of Songshou Hall has been sold. My people were still a step too late."

Bu Shansheng looked regretful upon hearing this, and said with a cupped hand, "Don't worry, Lord Gu. The order for conferring a hall is rare to begin with, and Song Shou Tang is in a hurry to sell, so it's not surprising that someone got there first."

Gu Yunli nodded: "What do you plan to do next?"

Bu Shansheng said: "Everything is up to Gu Bogong to arrange!"

Gu Yunli pondered for a moment and said, "I have just arrived here to take charge of this place, and I am still unfamiliar with many matters. You can practice here for the time being, and help me take care of things. As for Feng Xiulan's matter, let Zhao Mancang take over for the time being."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and sent out twenty incense sticks.

Bu Shansheng took it and said gratefully: "Bu will definitely live up to my uncle's trust!"

After saying this, he said goodbye and left.

Looking at Bu Shansheng's departing back, Gu Yunli let out a sigh of relief.

I thought, now I don’t have to worry about incense.

He then returned to his monastery, inhaled incense, and began to practice.

After this period of hard training, his progress in the realm of Lianyang Riyou has reached 94.1%, and he is only one step away from spiritual communication.

But for some reason, the demand for incense is increasing.

Perhaps this is why it is so difficult to make progress.

Now that there is plenty of incense, he naturally wants to try to make an impact.

As wisps of incense were inhaled and exhaled into the abdomen, the Six Voids of Ji Earth began to circulate immediately.

Ji Earth is the Dao meaning of Ji Earth;
The six voids are the four directions and the up and down!

This is the meaning of Tao that connects the four directions and the upper and lower earth. With one's own magic power, one can combine the creation of heaven and earth, consolidate one's life with the jade talisman, and make one's soul and body happy.

"Crash..."

Suddenly, a sound like gurgling water came from Gu Yunli's body, as if hundreds of rivers converge into the sea, which was pleasing to the ear.

"It's done!"

Gu Yunli raised his eyebrows, not daring to be too distracted. He practiced for a while, and only opened his eyes after his state of mind was stabilized.

“Is this the spiritual realm?”

He felt it for himself and immediately felt delighted.

If you say that you will not be afraid of the sunlight when you travel in Lianyang Day;
The spiritual realm is to be able to observe subtle details and avoid disasters.

In other words, as a spiritual being, his perception of the Tao will be taken to a higher level. This means that he will not only be able to see the outside world clearly, but will also have a deeper insight into his own Tao.

In comparison, the doubling of mana seems insignificant.

【Data Meaning】

Gu Yunli's heart moved, and he once again observed his innate magical powers with the spiritual state. In an instant, many Taoist ideas that he had never perceived before were reflected in his consciousness.

When the Tao began to operate, his body seemed to turn into a series of data.

He actually saw his own health bar.

No, it should be said that with the blessing of data Taoism, his body has been digitized.

It can be said that: the blood bar is endless and the peak is always there.

“No wonder this realm is called the Spiritual Realm. It is indeed extraordinary!”

Gu Yunli looked surprised.

Then he stretched out his hand, took out a bent wooden staff from his body, lightly touched the ground, and with the earth spirit's intention secretly activated, the scene of Tian'an Village suddenly came into view.

Compared with the day tour, not only the area that can be observed has become larger, but the observation accuracy has also been greatly improved.

"It seems that we can save the effort of patrolling in the future."

Gu Yunli thought to himself, and then he carefully experienced and experimented with it until he was completely familiar with the power, and then he withdrew his magical power. He checked the incense again and found that there were still more than 400 sticks left.

"I didn't expect there would be so many left. It seems my previous estimate was far off! This is a pleasant surprise. Tomorrow the ghost market in Yong County happens to be open. I can go and see if there are any five-element spiritual objects for sale."

After thinking about it, Gu Yunli stopped thinking about it and continued to practice to consolidate his realm.

A day without incident.

The next evening, after arranging matters at the land temple, Gu Yunli went to the ghost market in Yong County.

The Ghost Market of Yong County is located 20 miles west of Yong County. It was originally a village. In the early years, the river embankment burst and the whole village was flooded. When the flood receded, the village had turned into a ghost town.

Of course, to mortals, this place is ominous and terrifying.

But for ghosts, this place is a Feng Shui treasure land.

As more and more ghosts gathered, it became a ghost market.

The ghost market is similar to a rural town.

Usually there are fixed shops open for business, and the ghost market opens on the days of the yang numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. Ghosts and demons living in the surrounding areas will take this opportunity to come and do business.

When Gu Yunli arrived at the Ghost Market, it had already started.

The streets are lined with people, like a busy human city, with many wronged souls and evil spirits wandering around.

There are also street stalls on both sides of the street.

Paper-made funeral objects embodying telekinetic power, red spider lilies grown in the underworld, precious medicinal herbs collected by demons from the world of the living, and even all kinds of miscellaneous hand-made ritual instruments.

Gu Yunli strolled in the middle, looking carefully at the stalls on both sides.

Now he has reached the realm of spiritual communication. With his spiritual communication, he can tell the quality of a product at a glance.

Suddenly, he stopped in front of a stall selling bone tools.

There are quite a few bone tools scattered around on this stall.

Gu Yunli squatted down, picked up a shoulder bone and asked, "How much?"

The stall owner was a wandering ghost who could not see through Gu Yunli's cultivation level, so he quickly smiled and said, "Young Master, you have a good eye. This is made of top-grade, incorruptible bones. It contains a fierce ghost. It is perfect for guarding the house. You only need one hundred and twenty incense sticks."

Gu Yunli shook his head, turned the bone tool casually, and said, "This bone is of good quality, but unfortunately it lacks Yin Sha and has cracks. Isn't one hundred and twenty incense sticks too expensive?"

The stall owner's expression froze. He didn't expect that Gu Yunli had discovered the problem before he even took a closer look.

"Well... let's round it up to a hundred incense sticks, how about that?"

"sixty!"

"Young Master, relax. Ninety!"

"sixty-five!"

"eighty!"

"make a deal!"

Gu Yunli flicked his finger and a wisp of incense popped out, then he put away his shoulder bone and turned away.

The stall owner stood there in a daze.

After a while, he muttered, "Did I sell it at a low price?"

Little did he know that if it were a year ago, Gu Yunli would have been able to bargain so hard that he lost his temper.

My pockets are just full now, so I don't want to waste my breath on it.

The quality of this shoulder bone is actually very good.

A mere tear is of no consequence.

If there is not enough Yin Sha, it can be easily cultivated.

An irrational ghost is sealed inside. Its cultivation seems to be only at the level of night wandering, and it is almost impossible to improve it. But as the stall owner said, it is perfect for guarding the house.

Release it when you are in seclusion for training in the future, at least you can have an early warning.

Afterwards, Gu Yunli walked around the ghost market for several rounds and saw many small items that excited him, but there were almost no top-grade five-element spiritual objects that he wanted.

"It seems that there is no chance of finding any loopholes."

Gu Yunli shook his head and was about to turn into the shop next door when an old ghost with a goatee approached him stealthily.

"Young man, do you want some skills?"

"You have?"

Gu Yunli stopped and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Could it be that he encountered a down-and-out ghost and was willing to sell his skills to raise funds?
