Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 63

[Chapter 63 Qingzhu Follow-up (Congratulations to Hanyu Jiangxiangluan Alliance Leader!)]

Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World.

The stream gurgles and the trees are lush.

Boom!

A piece of bluestone was suddenly moved away, revealing a cellar underneath.

Fang Xi held the Golden Dragon Sword in one hand and a talisman in the other, and cautiously stuck his head out.

Seeing that everything outside was normal and there were not many changes compared to before he left, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

“Finally I’m back here again.”

He took a deep breath and was intoxicated by the spiritual energy of the Southern Wilderness’s immortal cultivation world.

“That’s me… If it were another fourth-step martial artist, even if he could break through successfully under the siege of the entire Sanyuan City masters and the army, he would probably be surrounded and killed in the end.”

“Fortunately, I got everything I wanted.”

“Breaking through the True Gang Martial Saint, converted into the Immortal Path, is the third level of Body Refining cultivator, comparable to a great master in the late stage of Qi Refining!”

“Even if the chaos near Qingzhu Mountain Market has not ended, it is enough to protect ourselves.”

Fang Xi fled from Qingzhu Mountain Market because he was afraid of chaos.

Now I am eager to try it, after all, chaos is the best ladder.

“No, you still have to be careful.”

“Now, the most important thing is to find people and understand the latest situation!”

Fang Xi looked up at the sky, identified a direction, and used his physical skills to leave quickly.

…

Yue State.

Jiahe City.

This is the closest mortal city to Qingzhu Mountain.

In the best restaurant in the city – Tianxianlou.

Tianxian Tower is located in the center of the city, where every inch of land is valuable and is built very elegantly.

Especially the top floor, which has always been open only to distinguished guests.

As for who the distinguished guest is, even the waiters in the building may not know clearly.

“Grandpa, it is said that the owner behind the Tianxian Building is someone that even the city lord has to treat with respect. I wonder who he is?”

On the second floor of Tianxian Building, in a private room, the door was open and a gentle girl in luxurious clothes could be seen curiously asking about her grandfather next to her.

“Hehe, you’ve asked the right person…” The old man stroked his beard with a smile, and after the girl’s repeated requests, he finally lowered his voice: “The only people who can make the city lord bow down to them are naturally the immortal masters…”

“It’s the Immortal Master?” The girl’s eyes immediately lit up when she heard this. She looked around and seemed to be trying to find the entrance to the stairs.

Unfortunately, the entrance to the top floor does not seem to be here.

At this time, accompanied by the sound of footsteps, a young man in blue came to this floor and looked around.

Then, as if it had found the direction, it came to a wooden wall.

On the wooden wall hangs a picture of a lady in ancient costume.

“This is it…”

Fang Xi murmured and walked in.

Bo!
A burst of light appeared, and he was completely immersed in the light and disappeared.

Fang Xi, who had studied “The Elementary Explanation of Formations”, naturally recognized that this was just a small restriction used to stop mortals, but it was completely ineffective against immortal cultivators.

“grandfather……”

Looking at his disappearing back, the girl tugged at her grandfather next to her.

The old man’s eyes were a little straight, and he didn’t even notice that the wine was spilled on him. After a long time, he turned around and said to his granddaughter: “Yunyun, you are very lucky. The young man in green is probably an immortal master…”

“Master…”

After hearing this, the girl’s eyes were filled with envy!
…

Behind the ban, there is a flight of wooden stairs.

Fang Xi walked up the stairs step by step and arrived at the top floor of Tianxian Building.

The layout here is elegant and exquisite, and every item may be hard to find in ordinary times. The view is also extremely broad, and you can overlook the scenery of the entire Jiahe City.

The only thing is that there are very few seats, and only a few people are sitting there at this moment.

“Hehe… My fellow Taoist, I am Ge Hongdan, and I am honored to be the owner of Tianxian Tower!”

A fat man dressed like an ordinary person smiled and said, “This building is open to all immortal cultivators. You can live here and enjoy it as you like. All the mundane things are free.”

“Daoyou is generous!”

Fang Xi bowed.

Ge Hongdan laughed: “I just like to make friends… To be honest, it is the Eighth Prince of Yue who supports me. I don’t know where the Friendship Immortal Land is. Are you willing to be a worshiper in the secular world? As long as you are willing to come to the palace, I can’t say for sure about spiritual stones, but all worldly enjoyments, whether it is gold, silver, jewelry, beautiful women, luxury houses, BMWs, antiques… everything you want!”

“Thank you for your kindness, Brother Ge. Unfortunately, I am still young and would like to continue to struggle on the path of Taoism.”

Fang Xi politely declined, but promised: “When I am old or discouraged, I will definitely come here to take a look. Then I hope you will take me in.”

“Haha, of course.” Ge Hongdan did not force it. He had seen many young monks like this, and they were all very arrogant. Those old monks who were past the age of sixty were his target.

For an old cultivator who has no hope of building a foundation and wants to establish a family or continue his bloodline in the mortal world, the best way is to rely on the powerful and wealthy, then he will have all the wealth and glory.

“Very good, just like the rumors say, they are all weaklings.”

Fang Xi took a quick look and found that except for Ge Hongdan who was in the middle stage of Qi Refining, most of the other guests were in the early stage of Qi Refining.

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

In other words, he could slaughter everyone here by himself. It was safe and he couldn’t help but feel relieved.

After thinking for a while, he found a seat by the window and began to appreciate the scenery outside.

Some of the monks on this level were holding a gourd of spiritual wine and drinking by themselves, some were tasting delicious food, and some were chatting.

Fang Xi waited for half an hour before hearing the newcomer next door talking about the news he wanted:
“Alas… Another refined corpse appeared near Jiahe City. Old Song and I teamed up to kill it, but Old Song accidentally got poisoned by the corpse… He had to buy elixirs to remove the poison, and he still lost half a spiritual stone. This damn refined corpse!”

A young man at the third level of Qi Refining took a sip of wine, full of resentment: “Even if the Situ family is destroyed, it will still cause great harm to people!”

“This fellow Taoist is invited.”

Fang Xi was moved when he heard this and walked over.

“You are too polite, fellow Taoist. My name is Chen Mo. I wonder if you have any advice for me?” When the young man saw Fang Xi coming towards him, he suddenly became a little nervous.

After all, he was only at the third level of Qi Refining, and his friend next to him was even worse, only at the second level, so he couldn’t help but tense up all over.

Most of the cultivators who mingle among the mortal world are of this character, with low cultivation and are very cautious.

“I have been concentrating on cultivation for the past two years. I just happened to hear you say that the Situ family was destroyed. I wonder what the situation is?”

Fang Xi sat down carelessly and started to ask.

“So that’s it.”

Chen Mo’s expression relaxed: “The Situ family and Red Leaf Valley committed many injustices and were strangled by the order of the upper sect Xuantian… It happened only two years ago.”

“Oh? I wonder what the specific situation is? What forces are involved?” Fang Xi continued to ask.

Chen Mo was a little surprised, but this was all public information and no one cared. “The ones who took action were the Baiqiao Qi family, the Qingye Xu family, the Tianfu Shen family, the Huangfenglong family, and the Song family… When they destroyed the Red Leaf Valley and the Qingzhu Mountain Market, everything went smoothly until they attacked the Situ family’s base camp, the Black Water Pond, and suffered heavy losses!”

“How serious is the injury?” Fang Xi showed an interested expression.

“Alas… The Situ family was originally known for being strong, fierce and tyrannical. Later, we learned that it was a demonic force. Their ancestor was the demon cultivator ‘Situ Jiu’ who was rampant in the neighboring country. He was an expert in the art of refining corpses… The Black Water Pond’s spiritual veins are not abundant, and there is poisonous miasma. The only thing worth mentioning is that there is a Yin vein that can be used to raise corpses… The Situ family chose this place as their clan land. They really thought it through!”

“That day, the army of monks attacked the Situ family. The Situ family carried coffins to fight. Thousands of coffins came out of the door, and countless buried corpses of ancestors rose up, killing the monks and making the blood flow like a river… Tsk tsk, it is said that the Situ family has an ancestral precept that all monks must be buried in the corpse-raising ground after death and become the family’s heritage. This time, the zombies jumped out and really scared the attacking monks. It is said that there are five or six flying zombies in the foundation-building stage alone, and the leading one has even reached the late foundation-building stage!”

“However, Xuantian Sect sent cultivators to supervise the battle, and finally the cultivators of the family set up the ‘Heavenly Fire Divine Flame Formation’ and attacked for several months before they managed to break through the Situ family. However, some of the most elite members of the Situ family had already fled and turned into demon cultivators, causing great harm to the people… and the attacking foundation-building immortal cultivation families also suffered heavy losses. The Baiqiao Qi family lost a foundation-building ancestor, and the Tianfu Shen family lost all its foundation-building cultivators, and was downgraded to a Qi-refining family. Later, they were also wiped out by the remnants of the Situ family. The losses were indeed heavy…”

“On the contrary, the Black Water Pond where the Situ family is located, although there are still some scattered Qi Refining-level corpses lurking there, and it has been plundered once, it has also become the favorite place for Yue Country’s independent cultivators to explore in recent times…”

Chen Mo finished speaking in one breath, feeling a little dry in the mouth, and couldn’t help but take a sip of tea.

“It’s so tortuous!”

Fang Xi was also a little shocked when he heard this.

I didn’t expect that the Situ family’s dying struggle and counterattack would be so resolute and tragic!

“However, the Situ family is not completely wiped out. Are there any members who have escaped? I wonder if Situ Qingqing is still alive? Even if she is, I’m afraid she has been beaten into a demon cultivator…”

Fang Xi always felt that there was something wrong with the final battle. It was most likely the Xuantian Sect’s trick, which resulted in both sides suffering losses and the third party gaining the upper hand in the end.

However, there are many smart people in the world of immortal cultivation, and everyone can see it, but cannot say it.

Who let Xuantian Sect have a Jindan ancestor?
“I wonder what happened to Qingzhu Mountain Market later?” Fang Xi thought about it and asked the question that concerned him the most.

“I know that.”

Ge Hongdan walked over and said with a smile: “The Qingzhu Mountain Market was originally controlled by the Situ family, but was later conquered by the ancestor of the Long family… But the Long family suffered heavy losses in the subsequent attack on the Black Water Pond, and had to give up most of their profits. Qingzhu Mountain changed hands several times and really went through a period of chaos. There were robbers everywhere who killed people and robbed treasures, and most of the items sold were adulterated… As a result, most of the nearby cultivators ran away.”

“Later, several independent cultivators who had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining could not stand it anymore, so they formed an alliance called ‘Green Bamboo Society’, which took over the management of the market. After several rectifications and crackdowns on the robbers, they managed to stabilize the market. But the improvement was limited. They could only ensure that there would be no fighting within the market, and they would not care about anything outside the market… However, in this way, it became a rare place for selling stolen goods in the Yue Kingdom’s immortal cultivation world, and its reputation spread.”

“The black market in the world of immortal cultivation?” Fang Xi muttered to himself, already understanding what was going on.
