Chapter 523: Chapter 523 Each Has Their Own Desires
For Pan Renjie, the cultivation level of this Divine Doctor Feng was exceptionally enigmatic.
He had heard of this person’s existence long ago, initially everyone thought this was an expert above the Qi Refinement Realm.
His master believed this person had a great heritage, but a great heritage often meant “super tricky to deal with.”
That’s exactly why the Wuyou Platform had disciples in the seventh layer of the Qi Refinement Realm as candidates, holding a Gathering Spirit Array Plate while walking in the mortal world.
Without this reason, it would be a dream for candidates to take a Gathering Spirit Array Plate into the Mortal World—disciples in the initial stage of Qi Refining weren’t qualified, at least not until the intermediate level.
...
Otherwise, why would the Gathering Spirit Array Plate be able to accommodate the cultivation of two disciples in the mid-stage Qi Refining? There’s a rationale behind it.
About a month ago, an inspector came to investigate; Wuyou Platform really hadn’t done anything out of line, but they had candidate disciples walking in the mortal world and it was fine to inquire about the situation.
Knowing that the other party was just a cultivator at the third level of Qi Refinement, Wuyou Platform didn’t particularly believe it, but they didn’t make it known—since their own disciple had already made contact with the other party, why let others share in this opportunity?
Of course, if the other party was truly just in the initial stage of Qi Refining, there was no need to provide others with a laugh at their own misunderstanding.
Pan Renjie was also very curious about Feng Jun’s cultivation level. When he came to see—it turns out to be the sixth layer of Qi Refinement?

The last time an inspector came was about two months ago. Can one jump from the third level of Qi Refinement to the sixth in two months?
Anything is possible in the Cultivation World, such a probability objectively exists, but Pan Renjie didn’t think he would encounter it.
So this Feng Jun certainly concealed his cultivation level.
Pan Renjie had means to test the true cultivation level of others. If the late Divine Doctor Yu Meiren could do it, so could he, but to do so would not only be impolite, it would show distrust or even hostility.
After chatting casually for a few moments, Elder Brother Pan had reason to believe that this mysterious cultivator was likely not just in the sixth layer of Qi Refinement—eight or nine times out of ten, he still hid his true cultivation level.
Considering the other party’s understanding of the mortal world experience, it’s very possible he’s at the ninth layer of Qi Refinement.
Pan Renjie’s misjudgment is quite understandable; in this realm, cultivators are revered, naturally standing above mortals. Many cultivators travel the mortal world to seek enlightenment and breakthroughs, with a very purposeful mission and not because they truly believe in the equality of immortals and mortals.
While Feng Jun comes from Earth, where everyone is considered equal—at least in Huaxia culture, the saying goes “Even kings and chancellors can be born from humble beginnings,” with no one inherently superior. Under this cultural context, the insights of mortals tend to be more down-to-earth.
Moreover, the Earth Realm has entered an era of information explosion; do not underestimate this fact. Even for cultivators, without breaking through this information shackles, without an accessible and shareable information platform, their knowledge greatly falls short of Earth Realm mortals.
—Except for those old monsters who have lived for over a thousand years.
In summary, Pan Renjie could not comprehend why Feng Jun had so many exquisite insights, so naturally, he speculated about the other’s cultivation level.
Then, seeing Feng Jun use his Divine Sense to check the Storage Talisman, he was even more convinced: This cultivator surnamed Feng, could it be that he’s not merely in the Qi Refinement Realm?
Of course, as it goes in the Cultivation World, any possibility exists—a mid-stage Qi Refiner being able to project their Divine Sense—perhaps someone really can do it.
But where in the world are there so many fortuitous encounters? Although Pan Renjie is young, he’s not inexperienced.
However, he only opened his eyes for a moment, then closed them again: what do I care about his cultivation level? If our fellow Daoist wishes to conduct business with the cultivation of a mid-stage Qi Refiner, then let’s consider him as such.
He’s been cultivating his heart through his travels in the mortal world for four or five years, and though he can’t completely settle down to become a true mortal, he still understands the principle of “going with the flow.” Many things can’t be forced.
Wang Botai’s perceptual abilities are quite inferior to Elder Brother Pan’s, but as soon as the Elder Brother opened his eyes, he too realized: My goodness, is this… Divine Sense projection?
Shangguan Yunjin, holding the Storage Talisman, was the most sensitive to the power of Divine Sense, and couldn’t help but brighten her eyes, “This is…”
Feng Jun slightly smiled and gave Mi Yunshan a slight nod of his chin.
Sister Lin, carrying a tray, walked forward with care, bowing as she presented it.
Shangguan Yunjin placed the Storage Talisman on the tray, smiling at Feng Jun, “Has our fellow Daoist prepared his Spirit Stones?”
Feng Jun gestured towards Yu Changqing, “I’ve already handed the Spirit Stones to Daoist Changqing.”
Though Shangguan Yunjin knew this, she simply used the topic of “Spirit Stones” to continue the conversation, “If our Daoist friend needs anything else, Wuyou Platform can also provide it.”
“Oh?” Feng Jun looked at her curiously, “Don’t take offense, Daoist Shangguan, but I have a question that baffles me: among the three Daoists, are you the one in charge?”
“Among the three of us siblings, you indeed have the lowest cultivation level.”
Shangguan Yunjin did not really get angry. She answered with a smile, “Each of us siblings has our own strengths. Fellow Daoist need not worry about these details.”
“Alright,” Feng Jun nodded, “A storage talisman isn’t really a big deal. I just don’t know what else you sell?”
“There is much we can sell,” Shangguan Yunjin wasn’t ashamed to discuss business. “The key is what you want, and… primarily, what is needed for which stage of cultivation?”
“I collect cultivation techniques,” Feng Jun replied crisply, “Martial cultivation techniques are fine too. As long as I don’t have them, you can sell them to me.”
“What about pills, talismans, formations, spirit weapons, and magic artifacts?” Shangguan Yunjin looked at him with a teasing smile.
She had heard that this fellow Daoist was frantically collecting cultivation techniques, and she couldn’t figure out why a cultivator would be so interested in martial arts techniques. Nonetheless, she wanted to probe him further in other areas.
“Of course, those can be considered too,” Feng Jun wasn’t worried about her probing. After all, his reaction was that of a normal cultivator, “But it has to be something I need. It would be best if you could provide a list.”
“Um, that… I will need to make some arrangements,” Shangguan Yunjin nodded, then blinked, “We wish to stay here for a few days, if it’s not too much trouble?”
“Feel free to stay,” Feng Jun smiled and waved casually, “But this Huashi Courtyard is a bit small. If you wish to stay elsewhere, let me know and I’ll arrange it.”
This courtyard was clearly meant for his residence. The parking lot in the back was his private property. A mile away was where the Tian Family, Yu Family, and others lived.
However, even if he wanted to reallocate those residences, it would be a simple matter for him. Heaven and Earth are inherently different. He could allow others to build houses on his land, but if he wished to borrow it for a couple of days, no one could stop him.
Shangguan Yunjin replied with a laugh, “As for living, it doesn’t matter where. We’d like to explore this place first.”
“You’re free to do as you wish,” Feng Jun said with a laugh and a wave of his hand, “If you want to stay longer, it’s not a problem either.”
“Staying long-term might not be possible,” Shangguan Yunjin laughed and replied, but didn’t say why.
Pan Renjie picked up the kung fu tea, drank it all at once, closed his eyes to savor the taste, and then breathed out lightly, “Good tea.”
At the Wuyou Platform, he normally drank spiritual tea. Now that he had tasted mortal tea and uttered “good tea,” it was obvious he wasn’t enjoying the spiritual energy but the charm within the tea itself.
Seeing him speak, Wang Botai pointed to an object in the corner and asked, “This object can produce cold air without the dampness of profound ice, can fellow Daoist explain a thing or two?”
It’s just air conditioning, Feng Jun answered with a smile, “This is also a mundane item. It provides heating in the winter and cooling in the summer, that’s all.”
Upon hearing his words, Shangguan Yunjin couldn’t help but speak up, “Fellow Daoist, being a cultivator, why is the place you live filled with mundane items?”
“Alright, Sister Shangguan,” Wang Botai couldn’t help but glance at her, “We all have our strengths. Now it’s my turn to speak, don’t make Feng Daoist laugh at Wuyou Platform for lacking manners.”
Shangguan Yunjin just smiled unconcernedly and stopped talking.
“There’s nothing that can’t be discussed,” Feng Jun replied with a smile, “Although Heaven and Earth are distinct, the existence of mundane things has its own wonders. If you carve out the enchantment within mundane objects, it’s possible to gain insight into the Great Dao.”
Upon hearing this, Pan Renjie couldn’t help nodding and said, “What you’ve said is very true. It’s known that ordinary martial artists have developed Mantis Fist by watching mantis fights, becoming invincible in combat – who would have thought it originated from a small insect? The Great Dao is everywhere in the world.”
“Brother is right,” Wang Botai voiced his agreement and then looked at Feng Jun with a fervent gaze, “Producing ice in summer must have a reason. We cultivators do not fear heat because of the flow of spiritual energy in our bodies… I wonder if fellow Daoist could enlighten me?”
Isn’t this questioning without end? Feng Jun couldn’t help but complain inwardly: Don’t you know that knowledge is priceless?
However, since the other party wanted to know, and he felt there was nothing to keep secret, he answered, “To produce ice in the summer, of course, you need a power source… which is the electricity I use.”
“Electricity… thunderous power?” Wang Botai’s eyes narrowed as he asked thoughtfully, “Is it the energy contained in that walkie-talkie?”
Yu Changqing had once taken walkie-talkies back for trial sales, not selling a single one and being mocked for their impracticality, but these brothers and sister had promoted them. They knew a little about the principles of walkie-talkies.
In fact, Wang Botai enjoyed artifact crafting and loved to ponder on various devices. His assessment of walkie-talkies wasn’t that high – because he found them not very practical – but he believed the principles within them were profound.
He insisted on accompanying the group on this trip. If it was just for a transaction, Shangguan Yunjin’s presence would have sufficed as a mid-level Qi Refiner of Wuyou Platform who carried forty storage talismans wasn’t likely to encounter much danger.
But her trading partner was somewhat peculiar, and Wuyou Platform thought there might be an opportunity here, so they informed Pan Renjie to escort – if you’re experiencing the mortal world, perhaps a trip alongside might prove fruitful.
It was supposed to be two disciples coming together, but when Wang Botai heard about it, he insisted on coming along as well. His aim wasn’t to ensure the trade, but the legendary generator.
