Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 129

[Chapter 128 Alchemy Furnace (Subscription Request)]

“Where is the island owner?”

Fang Xi put away the Qinghe Sword, but suddenly asked a question.

Given his relationship with Ruan Xingling, the other party would definitely come in person to congratulate him on his birthday instead of letting a little disciple do it for him.

“Master is entertaining an important guest and asked me to come and inform her that she will be here later…”

Ruan Dan bowed slightly and expressed her apology on behalf of Ruan Xingling.

“I see……”

Fang Xiyun was calm and didn’t seem to mind it at all. He smiled and said, “Young Island Master, please have a few more drinks…”

“good……”

Ruan Dan looked at the elegant and indifferent Fang Xi and couldn’t help but regret it inwardly.

I was young and hot-headed at the time, and indeed offended many people. I paid a heavy price later on. Now I want to make amends, but I wonder if it is too late?

The twenty-year-old peach blossom wine is mellow and fragrant, with a long-lasting aftertaste, and you will get drunk if you are not careful.

Especially the little girl Wei Yixi, her face flushed unconsciously, she lay on the table, drunkenly, and kept mumbling something.

Ruan Dan drank a few glasses and her face also became rosy and her eyes moved.

“Haha, everyone should have a great time today…”

Fang Xi also drank a few cups, feeling like an old man reminiscing about his youth: “Wait, I’ll go and invite the island owner to drink with us…”

After saying that, he directly steered the Black Feather Boat and flew towards Mirror Moon Lake.

The strong wind was blowing, and his eyes were clear, without a trace of drunkenness.

He was really interested in Ruan Xingling’s important guest.

Inside the villa.

“Fang Daoyou…”

The two monks saw Fang Xi and hurried over to greet him.

“Where is the island owner? I am celebrating my birthday today, so I am here to invite you to have a drink.”

Fang Xi said with a smile.

A cultivator did not dare to neglect the second most skilled person on the island and answered directly: “The island owner is receiving a guest in the Zui Nuan Pavilion. Fellow Daoist Fang may as well wait for a while.”

“Well, then I’ll go to the ‘Tingyu Tower’ next door and wait.”

Fang Xi was carefree and asked someone to accompany him to Tingyu Tower.

He was very familiar with the layout of this place. Tingyu Tower was adjacent to Zui Nuan Pavilion, only a few dozen meters away!
After breaking through the Great Perfection, his spiritual awareness range could reach ten feet, which was about thirty-three meters!

After arriving at Tingyu Tower, Fang Xi tasted the spiritual tea while secretly releasing his spiritual sense.

Although he was worried that there might be restrictions inside Zui Nuan Pavilion, such as “amulets”, Fang Xi did not dare to rashly spread his spiritual consciousness into it.

But just in the outside world, vague words were heard.

“…My Zhong family ancestor…”

“The destruction of the Thirty-Six Islands is not far away…”

“Yu Lingzi is dead…Fellow Daoist, please think carefully…”

…

A stick of incense later, a middle-aged monk flew out from Zui Nuan Pavilion.

His temples were gray, but his face gave Fang Xi a vague sense of familiarity.

“It’s the former concierge of Longmen Pavilion—Zhong Wangu!”

“Are they really from the Zhong family, coming to win over Peach Blossom Island?”

“If what he said is true, the foundation-building cultivator in Lingkongfang City, Yu Lingzi, is dead?”

“The Thirty-Six Islands Alliance was trying hard to overshadow the Zhong family, but they didn’t expect to suffer a heavy blow right at the start!”

…

After Zhong Wangu left with a gloomy look, Ruan Xingling came to Tingyu Tower.

“Island Master, I have three jars of twenty-year-old wine. Why don’t you go have a drink?”

Fang Xi extended the invitation with a smile.

“Just right!”

Ruan Xingling waved her hand gently, and a petal surrounded her. The two of them connected in light and soared into the sky together.

Strong winds blew in her face, but Ruan Xingling looked at Fang Xi with a half-smile: “Does Brother Fang have anything to ask?”

“Since the island master has recast the Qinghe Sword, I understand what he means, but…”

Fang Xi showed hesitation on his face: “In this life, I only wish to turn swords into plowshares. I don’t want to fight and kill anymore…”

“Unfortunately, in the world of immortal cultivation, if you don’t kill someone, someone will kill you. The three upper families are eyeing us covetously, wanting to completely integrate the alliance, turn it into a sect, and even dominate Wandao Lake…”

Ruan Xingling said angrily: “For this reason, they even joined forces with outsiders to sabotage my foundation-building…”

“This time, are we going to have a heart-to-heart talk?”

Fang Xi asked tentatively: “Which one does the island owner prefer, the Zhong family?”

“The Zhong family is a tiger and a wolf!”

Ruan Xingling even shook her head: “Don’t you know that the Silver Armored Demon seven years ago must have the support of the Zhong family! How could I join them…”

Fang Xi couldn’t help but remain silent.

He had seen Zhong Wangu coming as a lobbyist before!

The other party even revealed important information. From this point of view, the Zhong family should have the advantage.

Under such circumstances, Ruan Xingling didn’t seem to choose them.

Could it be that… there is a third party intervening in Wandao Lake?
This is not impossible!
‘I just don’t know… which party it is? And how did Ruan Xingling get in touch with them and trust them? ‘

Fang Xi suppressed the desire to explore in his heart.

In fact, he doesn’t care who rules Wandao Lake, as long as they don’t disturb him from planting trees.

At that moment, I went to Emerald Cliff with Ruan Xingling, and drank fine wine together, and both the host and the guest were very happy…

…

Nightfall.

Everyone at Emerald Cliff left, leaving Fang Xi alone sitting quietly under the peach tree.

The big black carps in the pond huddled at the bottom, not even daring to show their heads.

Even though it has become the king of fish and a fish rapist, it is still filled with genuine fear every time when facing its master who never shows his emotions.

“Even if the Sanshang family wanted to conceal the death of Yu Lingzi, it would be impossible to conceal it sooner or later…”

“It is unwise for the Thirty-Six Island Alliance to take the initiative to stir up trouble this time!”

“The Zhong family has shown its strength, and I don’t know how it will end… But it is foreseeable that the foundation-building cultivators will definitely take action.”

“By then, the intensity of the war will be completely different!”

Although Fang Xi had reached the perfect level in both Qi Refining and Body Refining, he thought that he did not have many rivals in the Qi Refining stage.

Even standing under the demon tree, he could be said to be invincible in Qi Refining, and even those in Foundation Establishment dared to fight… but it was just a fight…

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

He has always advocated using his realm to suppress others, rather than being suppressed by others!

Even if one has the strength of a Foundation Establishment warrior, one must be extremely cautious when fighting against a Foundation Establishment warrior of the same level, not to mention that one is not even in the Foundation Establishment stage yet!

It would be very foolish to fight against such a powerful enemy just for Ruan Xingling.

“If we really encounter a powerful enemy and a foundation-building cultivator attacks Peach Blossom Island… we must escape even if we have to give up the Demon Tree!”

“After all, I still have more than a hundred years of life left. I can go to Daliang to find some more seeds from the demon tree and continue planting trees in another place!”

“It’s exciting to fight against the foundation building with Qi refining, but it’s not my style!”

‘To live a long and healthy life, you need to be cautious, so that you can live long!’

Life is unique. When it is gone, everything is truly gone.

Apart from that, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned!
Fang Xi has always been very firm in his original intention.

“However, you can also try to increase your strength first!”

He thought of the demon tree and looked at his fist.

Now Fang Xi can already feel how terrifying the energy and blood is hidden beneath his own soul!

This is the profit gained from planting trees for nearly thirty years and continuously increasing qi and blood every day!

It is already equivalent to taking one or even multiple second-level Qi and blood elixirs!

‘Soon… no, you can put aside the daily life-extending vitality and Yimu Dharmakaya training, and focus on increasing your own Qi and blood to sprint to the realm of ‘True Qi Transformation’! ‘

This legendary martial arts realm of Daliang is comparable to the fourth level of cultivation of the immortal body-refining technique “Body of Ten Thousand Beasts”, which is equivalent to the physical cultivation in the initial stage of foundation building!

Even though their methods may be inferior to those of foundation-building cultivators, they can still barely have a certain degree of self-protection.

Thinking of this, Fang Xi came to the underground cave and saw the demon tree that had grown downwards to more than six feet. He couldn’t help but take a deep breath: “Jia Yi!”

The wooden puppet wearing a vine mask immediately walked out of the darkness and came in front of Fang Xi.

“Go to the vicinity of Jingyue Lake and monitor Ruan Xingling’s every move. If she leaves the village, report to me immediately!”

Fang Xi gave an order and Jia Yi immediately set off towards Jingyue Lake.

Not long after.

By the lake, in the peach forest.

Jiayi came to the edge of an ordinary peach tree, stretched out his palm, and countless tentacles emerged from his palm and merged with the peach tree.

The next moment, his entire body mysteriously sank into the tree trunk, his face hidden inside the tree hole, his eyes staring blankly in the direction of the villa.

This was also a small discovery made by Fang Xi. This kind of wooden puppet had a strange wood escape magic that could blend with the trees, and its aura was almost invisible.

Very suitable as a spy!

Fang Xi’s action was not because he suspected Ruan Xingling, but because he was a little curious about the third-party force.

After all, those who dare to interfere in Wandao Lake must at least be foundation-building forces! In
case a wolf enters the house, I can be prepared by then!

…

One year later.

Dan indoors.

Fang Xi started to make the elixir while flipping through the book on alchemy.

What he was refining now was a pill recipe that he had recently obtained from an exchange fair – the Qi-replenishing Pill!

This pill is quite interesting and is divided into three grades: low, medium and high.

Among them, the inferior Qi-replenishing pills can only restore 60% to 70% of the mana of a cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining in a short period of time.

As for the first-grade superior Qi-replenishing pill, even if a cultivator who has reached the peak of Qi training has exhausted his magic power, it can still restore about 40% to 50% in a short period of time!

“After reaching the first-grade upper grade, it becomes difficult to collect both the recipe and the medicinal materials…”

Fang Xi released his spiritual consciousness and felt the changes in the medicinal properties of the translucent elixir liquid in the alchemy furnace. Surprisingly, he felt like he was at ease.

The next moment, he tapped the alchemy furnace lightly and uttered a series of magical spells.

Buzz!

The alchemy furnace was opened wide, and a refreshing fragrance filled the air.

A ball of medicinal liquid solidified and flew out, and many impurities in it were actually peeled off on their own and sank into the alchemy furnace.

Five pure and flawless pills like pearls appeared in Fang Xi’s hand. They were all top-grade Qi-boosting pills!
“More!”

Fang Xi put the pill away and continued to use the pill-collecting technique towards the alchemy furnace.

In an instant, the aroma of medicine filled the air.

Smaller pills emerged and landed on the jade plate. They were eight mid-grade Qi-replenishing pills!

At this time, the flame at the bottom of the furnace was still not extinguished!

When Fang Xi performed the third pill collection technique, another sixteen low-grade Qi-boosting pills flew out!
“The impurities of the top-grade elixir may be the main ingredients of the mid-grade elixir… My set of ‘Three Waves’ pill collection technique can be used to refine the residual materials of the top-grade elixir repeatedly. In this way, the utilization rate of the medicinal materials in a furnace of elixir is close to 90%…”

Fang Xi glanced at the purple copper furnace with some regret: “If it weren’t for the poor quality of this furnace, I could have produced a few more mid- and low-grade pills…”
