Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 133

Chapter 133: Foundation Building Killing Intent

“How could he fail?”

Huang Liang was puzzled.

Even he couldn’t necessarily be Lu Yuanji’s match. It was simply

because Lu Yuanji’s cultivation talent surpassed his, and his accumulated knowledge was so profound that he was only one step away from Foundation Establishment! There was a

reason why Lu Yuanji had remained firmly at the helm of Black Wind Mountain, unfazed for so many years.

“Well, since he failed, we’ll have to find another way.”

“Brother, what’s that?”

Huang Feng asked hurriedly.

He had received news

that Su Yuyan would be visiting Huanghe Immortal City again soon.

He didn’t want Li Changan to get in his way then.

Huang Liang slowly approached, sat down before him, and said in a deep voice, “Junior Brother, with our status, dealing with a casual cultivator like Li Changan is actually quite easy.”

“Brother, you don’t want me to use the power of an enforcer again, do you?”

Huang Feng shook his head repeatedly. He was truly frightened by Pei Yingyao’s defeat.

Facing the fear of a Foundation Establishment cultivator directly

was something not many people could understand.

Huang Feng felt a little frustrated at the thought.

Huanghe Immortal City was, after all, the territory of the Huanghe Mountain lineage, his home turf, yet he couldn’t even control a mere casual cultivator like Li Changan.

“Junior Brother, you’re still too timid after all,”

Huang Liang sighed softly.

Then, he slapped his storage bag.

A lifelike human skin immediately appeared on the stone table before them.

“This is…”

Huang Liang’s face was filled with shock.

Because…

This human skin was the image of Li Changan!

Huang Liang explained, “Although I had previously believed that Lu Yuanji wouldn’t fail, just in case, I had him create a replica of Li Changan’s skin. This skin was hastily crafted, imperfect, and can only be used once.”

At this point, he chuckled softly ,

looking confident .

“Even if it’s just once, it’s enough!”

“Senior Brother, what do you want to do with this human skin?”

Huang Feng asked hurriedly.

He had a vague feeling that Huang Liang might be planning something big.

Huang Liang laughed and said, “Junior Brother, this is your own business. I won’t help you. Just do as I say. As long as you’re brave enough, Li Changan will surely die!”

“Junior Brother, what if Uncle Pei…”

“Junior Brother!”

Huang Liang interrupted him.

“I told you, Uncle Pei doesn’t value Li Changan. At most, he’s earned a favor from him, but it’s gone once he uses it!”

…

A month later.

At night,

Li Changan was bathing in a medicinal bath, tempering his body.

Meanwhile, he held a jade slip, continuously studying the contents of the Spiritual Medicine Heritage.

“This Spiritual Medicine Heritage is only a first-grade, superior talisman, but it contains more than a second-grade, lower-grade talisman. It’s so detailed, it even records how to treat injuries caused by every type of demonic beast.”

Li Changan sighed inwardly. Being a Spiritual Medicine Healer is not easy. There’s so much to remember.

Fortunately, cultivators have a far superior memory than mortals.

If a mortal were to learn it, they’d probably never be able to finish!

He was absorbed in his study.

Suddenly…

A golden light flashed before his eyes.

[The hexagram has been refreshed]

[Today’s hexagram: Flat]

[Chu Xiong, a foundation-building master from the Huanghe Mountain lineage, suddenly came to your door and said that you killed his disciple and wanted to arrest you and put you in the dark prison for interrogation. Fortunately, Pei Yingyao intervened on your behalf, allowing the matter to end without any danger.]

“Chu Xiong?”

Li Changan frowned and read the contents of the hexagram again.

He knew this person. He

was the twelfth disciple accepted by Master Huang He, and he was at the initial stage of foundation building.

It was rumored that this person had good talent, but a simple mind, a bad temper, and often offended people.

Therefore, he had a relatively bad reputation among the foundation-building masters of the Huanghe Mountain lineage.

“I have devoted myself to self-cultivation and have never even left the house. When did I kill his disciple?”

Li Changan was puzzled.

He didn’t even know Chu Xiong’s disciples, and had no connection with them.

“It’s said that this person is simple-minded and is likely being used by someone.”

Li Changan pondered for a moment, and quickly thought of Huang Feng.

He knew very well that

Huang Feng must be resentful after the last incident at the restaurant.

“He was severely injured by Senior Pei, so he probably wouldn’t dare to use the power of a law enforcer to openly deal with me again, so he can only use other forces.”

Chu Xiong, with his simple mind and foundation-building strength, was the perfect target for exploitation.

However,

Li Changan was temporarily confused.

How could Huang Feng deceive Chu Xiong?

“Could it be that he has learned a sophisticated disguise technique and can disguise himself as me? Or perhaps he has fake skins of mine?”

Li Changan thought of the human skins in Lu Yuanji’s storage bag.

Logically,

with his portrait, creating fake skins would not be difficult.

However, according to the records in the inherited art of painting skins, creating a reusable fake skin is extremely time-consuming.

This is precisely why.

Lu Yuanji’s storage bag contained only one reusable fake leather; the rest were genuine leather.

Judging by the time available,

he simply didn’t have enough time to create a perfect fake Li Changan for Huang Feng and his fellow apprentices.

“Perhaps Huang Feng has a few disposable fake leathers.”

Li Changan pondered for a long time, gradually approaching the truth of the matter.

Even disposable fake leather looked incredibly realistic and difficult to distinguish.

As long as it was used properly,

it wouldn’t be difficult to deceive someone as simple-minded as Chu Xiong.

…

The next day, early in the morning,

outside the courtyard,

a man approached.

He was a burly figure, with a broad back and broad waist, clad in heavy armor, like a standing bear demon, incredibly sturdy.

It was none other than Chu Xiong, the twelfth disciple of Master Huang He!

At this moment,

his face was filled with anger, his eyes blazing as he stared intently at Li Changan’s house.

“Formation?”

Chu Xiong could tell that Li Changan’s house was protected by a formation.

According to common sense in the world of immortal cultivation,

one should not enter a formation lightly.

But he was so enraged that he didn’t care. He kicked the gate open and strode in.

“Li Chang’an, get out!”

he roared at the house with a thunderous voice.

A moment later,

the door slowly opened.

Li Chang’an, condensing his body through illusion, remained hidden deep within the formation.

Then, with a puzzled look on his face, he emerged from the room and bowed to Chu Xiong.

“Senior, do you need anything from me?”

Before he spoke, he had already crushed the jade token Pei Yingyao had given him.

Meanwhile, the Black Water Turtle was already poised in his spirit beast bag.

“With the Black Water Turtle’s current strength, it’s no problem for it to take on Chu Xiong,”

Li Chang’an thought to himself, taking a closer look at Chu Xiong.

He noticed

something strange about this man’s appearance.

His body was particularly muscular, yet his head was pointed, making him look unlike a normal person.

Li Chang’an couldn’t help but recall some rumors he had heard.

It was said that

this man, in his youth, focused on physical training, but took the wrong path. To strengthen his physique, he resorted to various methods, including consuming numerous elixirs with severe side effects.

As a result, although he had grown stronger, his mental state was affected. He

became simple-minded and easily angered.

At this time, Chu Xiong was heard to say angrily: “Li Changan, you killed my disciple. Your crime is unforgivable. Come with me to the black prison for interrogation!”
