I forgot the title of a story I have read before. It was over 500 chapters but lower than 1000 chapters. This story is set in the modern world. MC has an eye ability that can verify the authenicity of antiques. There are lots of fake antiques in the modern market but MC can see the qi/gas of old antiques. He later gets involved with an organization called the six doors/paths, I remember one of them is thievery. It's dying out in modern times. MC later begins on the road of cultivation in the modern world. At the refining gas stage, MC intrudes on a nuclear shelter where the top leaders of China (normal people) are meeting. He threatens them. MC has a influential government official elder that MC extended life for 10-20 years with an elixir. He ends at about the refining gas stage / building base at the end of the story. MC also kills some sort of python during the story. There's less than 10 cultivators in the world but it's hinted at the end of the story that more cultivators exist in blessed lands, sort of like pocket dimensions. Anybody know/remember?
Have you tried looking up the tag antique shop or just type antique into the search? Or is the novel not tl'ed yet
