"Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Chen?"
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Lian gently waved his hand in front of Chen Changsheng's eyes...
"Ah? Oh, I remembered some past events... Fellow Daoist Shen, please forgive me. I have had a sudden inspiration recently and have a premonition that I am about to break through to the eighth level of Qi training. So I will not go to explore the cave. If you are interested, you can go to find Fellow Daoist Tao, Fellow Daoist Ma and others. Each of them is more powerful than me!" Chen Changsheng said with a trace of guilt on his face. He had hidden a layer of cultivation and told others that he was at the seventh level of Qi training.
Want to take me to Ganyaozi in northern Myanmar?
Your rhetoric is really bad.
How could someone take others on a treasure hunt after only knowing each other for half a month, and the treasure is so big?
To be fair, wouldn't it be nice for one person to enjoy such a great treasure all to himself?
Even if one person may not be able to break into the cave, he still has to find a fellow Taoist who knows him well. Is it possible to just pull anyone over and go?
"Fellow Daoist, your cultivation is about to break through? Congratulations!" Shen Lian's face froze when he heard that, and then he clasped his fists awkwardly.
In the world of cultivating immortals, cultivation is the top priority, and everything else has to take a back seat!
In the five major sects, if a disciple is about to break through to the Golden Core stage, the sect will even activate a mountain protection formation to prevent anyone from disturbing him.
"It's just a feeling, but whether I can break through or not is still uncertain. It's really difficult to break through the realm!" Chen Changsheng said casually.
"Cultivating immortals is against the will of heaven, it's not easy. Fellow Daoist, please practice on your own, I won't disturb you!" Shen Lian bowed.
"Goodbye, Fellow Daoist Shen!" Chen Changsheng also returned the greeting.
Seeing Shen Lian walk out of his cave, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but reveal a disdainful expression...
"This guy doesn't know my exact bone age. He probably thinks I don't have much experience because I look young, so he's trying to trick me!"
"If I really go with him to explore the cave of Master Mingliang, I estimate that there is a high probability that I won't be able to come back!"
"This person has evil intentions. He actually broke up and plotted against me. This must be recorded in my notebook. If I get the chance, I'll kill him!"
Shen Lian, who had left the cave, frowned...
"I can't believe this kid is about to break through to the eighth level of Qi training. He was lucky not to be able to trick him out. But this kid looks like he's only in his twenties, and he's about to advance to the eighth level. Isn't his training speed too fast?"
"Could it be that he has the talent of a top-grade spiritual root?"
"Or maybe it's drugs..."
"No matter which one it is, this person is a talisman maker and can live in Qingyang Palace. He must be wealthy. If he has the talent of a top-grade spiritual root, then doesn't he have the opportunity to build a foundation?"
Thinking of this, Shen Lian couldn't help but feel jealous...
Think about Shen Lian, he also has the aptitude of middle-grade spiritual roots. When he was young, his family called him a genius and placed high hopes on him. But now he is nearly fifty years old and has only barely cultivated to the eighth level of Qi training. It is not known whether he can break through to the ninth level of Qi training before the age of sixty. And this boy is only in his twenties, and he is about to catch up with him?
If I am considered a genius, then what is he?
No, we must find a way to get him out of the city. Once he’s out of the city, humph!
Shen Lian was completely unaware that Chen Changsheng was actually fifty-three years old this year, a bit older than him, but because of his long life span, he didn't look the least bit old...
"Old Shen, how is it? How did that kid respond?" Tao Ming waved at Shen Lian.
"It failed!" Shen Lian shook his head.
"Failed? This kid is young, but he's very smart. Did he see through our purpose?" Tao Ming frowned.
"Probably not. It's just too unfortunate this time. He said that he had a sudden inspiration and showed signs of a breakthrough, so he wanted to stay in Taohuaju for retreat." Shen Lian said.
"Is he about to break through? This guy is really lucky!" Tao Ming said jealously.
Compared with Shen Lian, Tao Ming's cultivation level is even lower. He is only at the seventh level of Qi training. Although he is called a talisman maker, he is actually only a first-grade low-grade talisman maker. He cannot be compared with a first-grade high-grade talisman maker like Chen Changsheng.
A first-grade, low-quality talisman maker is quite popular in the early and middle stages of Qi training, but he is no longer useful in the later stages of Qi training. After all, the price of a first-grade, low-quality talisman is too low, and one cannot earn much even if he spends a lot of effort on drawing talismans.
"Yes, he is lucky and talented. Do you think he will have a chance to break through the foundation-building stage in the future?" Shen Lian sighed.
Build the foundation!
It is almost a hurdle in the hearts of all Qigong practitioners...
"That... is hard to say. If it were somewhere else, the possibility of building a foundation would be very small, but here in Sanyang City, the chances are much greater..."
"Have you heard? Half a month ago, that fellow Li Kui, along with a group of cultivators in the late Qi training stage, surrounded and killed a thunder beast. They unexpectedly found a small demon pill in the beast's head!"
"Now, this little demon pill has been delivered to Master Qi. I estimate that it won't be long before the furnace is ready for alchemy. Sanyang City may have one, or even several, Foundation Establishment Masters!" Tao Ming said, his eyes gleaming with envy...
There is more than one recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill. In addition to using the three main ingredients, there is another method of refining it, which is to use the demon pill!
Demonic pill, the pill formed in the body of a demon beast.
Normally, only third-level demons have demon pills in their bodies. However, a few second-level demon beasts with extraordinary talents also have demon pills in their bodies. Such demon pills are also called small demon pills.
Using the Little Demon Pill as the main ingredient, you can also refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The reason why Sanyang City is so prosperous is also related to its proximity to the Demon Mountain, which makes it convenient for cultivators to hunt monsters.
After all, the three main medicines for foundation building are hard to find, so many people choose to enter the Monster Mountain to find the second-level monsters, surround and kill them to get the pills...
Every birth of a Little Demon Pill is accompanied by bloodshed.
The strength of the second-level demon race is equivalent to that of the foundation-building stage. Fortunately, their intelligence is low and they have not yet escaped from their animal nature. By using some tricks, there is still a chance to surround and kill them.
Of course, the monster's counterattack before death will also cause considerable casualties.
For example, Li Kui led more than ten Qi-cultivating cultivators, and although he successfully hunted down Lei Mang and obtained the Little Demon Pill, he also suffered more than half of his own casualties...
He was still lucky. Most of the time, he had spent a huge price to kill a second-level monster, but in the end, its head was empty...
"Building the foundation... If one day, you and I can also build the foundation..." Shen Lian said in a trembling voice.
"Brother Shen, there are still eight years until the next big auction. As long as we can accumulate enough spirit stones, even if we can't get the foundation-building pill, we still have a chance to buy the foundation-building spiritual objects..."
"At worst, I can test the law myself!" Tao Ming said calmly.
Of course, it’s still a little early to say this...
His magic power has not even reached the ninth level of Qi training, so he is not qualified to challenge the foundation building stage!
The most urgent task is to get more spirit stones, buy pills, and improve cultivation.
As long as I can advance to the ninth level of Qi training at the age of sixty, at least I can still give it a try!
But how can we trick Chen Chong, this big fat sheep, out of the city?
