Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman

Chapter 147: Chapter 114: That Eastern person must have the help of a Ghostly God!

Nier, on the outskirts of Gad City’s factory district.

This area benefitted from investors from the East setting up factories here.

Where it was once nearly a deserted ghost town, it gradually became lively again, and several vendors spontaneously created a market outside the industrial area.

The number of people in Gad City whose lives improved due to the Eastern investments gradually increased as well.

At noon, on the top floor of an office building in the factory district.

Registered Disciple, President Huang, sat in his office chair, staring blankly at the large screen in front of him.

It seemed… like he was daydreaming.

But in fact, President Huang had a sudden stroke of insight and entered a state of introspection, contemplating the pathways of his own Qi.

Through a mysterious, indescribable sensation, he continuously fine-tuned these pathways to better suit his physique.

This is a major feature of the Martial Path Divine Skill Health Care Skill; after all, every individual is different in terms of health detail.

The areas and intensity of training needed naturally differed as well.

However, reaching this state of alignment is something many martial artists in the Immortal Cultivation World who practice this skill rarely achieve.

For President Huang and others to enter this realm so quickly can only mean they caught a big break, and the Pot Cave Heaven upgraded too rapidly, providing an exceptionally conducive environment.

With such a concentration of Spiritual Energy, even the weakest body, if practicing martial arts, could advance by leaps and bounds!

Suddenly, the cell phone vibrated mildly, interrupting President Huang’s insight.

He frowned slightly, then saw it was a call from a friend who was quite familiar within his circle, and he answered the call.

After exchanging greetings, the other party got to the point:

“Huang, I heard you’ve been learning a lot of good stuff with the master recently!”

“I’ve seen those videos and pictures in your social media, and we’re all really envious of your vibrant energy.”

“So here’s the thing… I have a friend who lately has been having some trouble with his kidneys and back, and the hospital visits haven’t helped much.”

“I was wondering about that master of yours…”

The caller paused, waiting for President Huang’s response.

Having navigated the business world for many years and knowing this person inside out, President Huang was well aware that the so-called friend was actually the caller himself!

But concerning real mysteries, President Huang wouldn’t just casually agree like those deceptive masters would, instead he subtly shook his head and said:

“You still don’t understand, do you? Do you think this is about offering a red envelope and receiving a placebo under the guise of some charlatan’s blessing?”

“If you’re really interested, you should come to Nier and see for yourself. There’s a lot I can’t talk about, but as an old friend, I suggest you come in person.”

“You’ll thank me once you’re here!”

After saying this, President Huang’s following words turned into an array of cryptic sayings and did not provide any clear information.

After hanging up, the other businessman on the line, whose wealth rivaled that of President Huang, rubbed his thinning hair, opened a world map, and located the unremarkable Nier.

He asked his smart assistant to search for recent news involving the area, and soon enough, his gaze sharpened as he noted the local temple reports.

First, there was the sudden appearance of a large tree illusion.

Second, there were the continuous magic meetings in Gad City, which drew many renowned mages who even paid out of their own pockets to join a specific temple.

There were also rumors about a local temple’s ghostly god who found a saintess and then vanished into the void right in front of everyone…

“This is where Huang and his people have gone…”

“Could it be that some of those mysterious online rumors are actually true?”

The businessman instinctively still didn’t believe it.

More than mysterious appearances or supernatural manifestations.

He even believed more that President Huang and the others had been kidnapped.

And now they wanted to lure him into a trap as well!

However, he was not just an ordinary person without connections; he could easily verify through his network the lifestyle of President Huang and others during this period.

Aside from attending mysterious gatherings, President Huang and others were still visibly interacting outside, and they frequently managed local businesses before heading back.

The indecisive businessman looked at the Medicine Bag in his insulated cup.

These Medicine Bags, which can be brewed and drunk, had become the most attractive business that Huang and his people had set up in Nier for those locally wealthy with limited resources.

Although they were only samples, after drinking them, he truly felt as if his essence, qi, and spirit were replenished.

He also owned shares in some medical companies and had them try to produce Medicine Bags with the exact same mixture.

But drinking those felt as if he hadn’t consumed anything.

Even worse, drinking too much caused diarrhea!

Thump, thump, thump!

He gulped down the hot water from the insulated cup.

Once again, he felt the illusion of a barely perceptible warmth flowing through his body.
