Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 470

Chapter 470 Skills Astound Everyone, Two Different Flames (Seeking Subscriptions)

The monster formed by the Black Fiend Pill is about the same strength as a fourth-tier Yellow Spring Blood Corpse, but not as strong as a normal Nascent Soul True Monarch, and can only be maintained for a short time, at most a few breaths.

If Li Chang’an were to use his Nascent Soul power, he could destroy all the Black Fiend Pills here in an instant.

But he did not intend to reveal his strength.

“Let’s see if this test is effective first.”

Li Chang’an glanced at the test content, which was exactly the same as what Jin Linghe had said before, and immediately felt relieved.

It was just pure pill refining, with no other requirements. At

this moment.

The eyes of everyone present were focused on him.

Most of their eyes were filled with doubt and confusion, unable to understand why Li Chang’an would rush in to his death.

Ning Cailian frowned and asked, “Li Chang’an, why did you come here?”

“Envoy, I received a request for help from Fellow Daoist Jin, so I came to take a look.”

“Do you know that there are fourth-tier monsters here?”

“I know.”

Li Chang’an smiled, his tone calm.

He actually came for the treasure, but he couldn’t say it out loud.

“I have a good relationship with the Jin family, and we’ve had many dealings since our Qi Refining days. Fellow Daoist Jin is in danger, so naturally I can’t stand idly by.”

Hearing this,

Ning Cailian and the others’ expressions changed to varying degrees.

They never expected that Li Chang’an, known for his cowardice, would actually risk his life for his friend.

Jin Linghe was deeply moved, his eyes reddening.

“Brother Chang’an, if we can escape this calamity, I will definitely become sworn brothers with you!”

“That’s not necessary. My ancestors and yours are of the same generation; we can’t mess up the generations. If you call me brother, how will your ancestor address me?”

“This…”

Jin Linghe hesitated.

He couldn’t understand it for a moment, so he put the matter aside, a look of worry appearing on his face.

“Fellow Daoist Li, you came here alone?”

“That’s right.”

“Do you have any fourth-tier techniques?”

“Some, but not many.”

“So, you’re trapped here just like me. You shouldn’t have acted impulsively!”

Jin Linghe sighed deeply, somewhat regretting asking Li Chang’an for help.

He had originally intended for Li Chang’an to fetch a Nascent Soul True Monarch, but unexpectedly, Li Chang’an came alone.

Even with fourth-tier trump cards, it would be useless; at most, it would only help them hold out for a little longer.

Once their trump cards were exhausted, Li Chang’an would die here with them.

The others present shared the same thought.

“Fellow Daoist Li, you were really impulsive.”

“You’re ultimately just a Golden Core cultivator, not a Nascent Soul True Monarch. You shouldn’t have entered this place.”

Everyone spoke up, most with a hint of admiration.

They had previously thought Li Chang’an was just a coward, but his actions at this moment had changed all their opinions.

Honestly, they themselves couldn’t bring themselves to risk their lives for a friend.

Even Ning Cailian re-evaluated Li Chang’an.

She spoke softly, “Li Chang’an, are you really here alone?”

“Yes,”

Li Chang’an replied immediately.

“However, I’m not being reckless. I heard there’s an alchemy assessment here, and I intend to give it a try.”

Hearing this, Ning Cailian was somewhat surprised.

“You’re also a fourth-tier alchemist?”

“Yes, I have a slight talent for alchemy. Not long ago, I was fortunate enough to cross the fourth-tier threshold and become a low-grade fourth-tier alchemist.”

Upon hearing this,

everyone present changed their expressions again, each one showing astonishment.

Before this, no one had expected that Li Chang’an, this seemingly ordinary Golden Core cultivator, would actually possess a fourth-tier skill!

Ning Cailian asked solemnly, “Li Chang’an, you’re not lying to me?”

Li Chang’an said, “Your Excellency, I’ve been able to establish myself in the Zhao Kingdom’s cultivation world because of my integrity. Since embarking on the path of cultivation, I have never lied to anyone.”

“In that case, give it a try.”

“Yes!”

Li Chang’an immediately walked to the alchemy furnace, pretending not to recognize the formula, and picked it up to examine it carefully.

Ning Cailian and the others all focused their gazes on him, most carrying a glimmer of hope, but also prepared for disappointment.

Even Tang Hao, the young master of a pill-refining sect, couldn’t succeed.

Li Chang’an’s chances of success were extremely low.

At this moment,

Tang Hao sighed.

“Fellow Daoist Li, the difficulty of refining this pill far exceeds that of ordinary fourth-grade low-rank pills. Those who set up this test back then were probably just deliberately making things difficult for the candidates. You don’t need to feel pressured.”

He also believed that Li Chang’an couldn’t succeed, hence his words.

Li Chang’an nodded: “I know, but I have to try.”

A moment later,

under everyone’s gaze,

Li Chang’an sat cross-legged, took out a set of materials, and calmly began refining the Demon-Slaying Pill.

“Go!”

With a thought, he sent the materials flying into the furnace one by one, transforming into clumps of medicinal liquid.

Among them, a few materials required special treatment, otherwise impurities could not be completely removed, leading to the final failure of the pill.

Li Chang’an concentrated intently, carefully processing the materials according to the pill formula, and successfully completed this step.

Seeing this,

Tang Hao’s eyes widened.

He had failed at this step twice before.

Yet Li Chang’an succeeded on his first try!

“Could his alchemy skills be superior to mine?”

The thought filled Tang Hao with mixed emotions.

He both hoped for Li Chang’an’s success and wanted to see him fail.

If he succeeded, they would pass the test, and the fourth-tier monsters surrounding them would disappear.

But Li Chang’an would become the most dazzling person on this trip, overshadowing him.

With these complex feelings, he watched helplessly as Li Chang’an fused numerous medicinal liquids, getting closer and closer to success.

Unbeknownst to them ,

half an hour had passed.

The entire alchemy process remained smooth, showing no signs of failure.

The hope in everyone’s hearts grew stronger, and they gradually tensed up, holding their breath and concentrating, afraid of affecting Li Chang’an.

Before long, a peculiar fragrance wafted from the furnace.

“Come!”

Li Chang’an raised his hand, and a perfectly round pill flew out.

Almost simultaneously,

a cold voice rang in everyone’s ears.

“The test is passed; the pill’s quality is excellent!” As

soon as the words fell,

the surrounding monsters exploded, turning into black smoke and dissipating.

The remaining Black Fiend Pills flew back, no longer transforming into fiendish monsters.

This meant that everyone had successfully survived this ordeal!

They all breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing the joy of surviving a calamity.

“Haha, Fellow Daoist Li, I truly underestimated you before. I never imagined you possessed such skill!”

“To refine a fourth-grade pill with the cultivation of a Golden Core cultivator, Fellow Daoist Li, you are truly a genius in alchemy!”

“We have no way to repay your life-saving grace. If you need any help in the future, Fellow Daoist Li, please just tell me…”

Everyone spoke up, expressing their gratitude to Li Chang’an.

Ning Cailian’s beautiful eyes shone with a strange light, and a rare smile appeared on her pretty face as she praised Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, you did well!”

Hearing this, everyone was both surprised and envious.

Before this,

Ning Cailian addressed everyone by their given names, never calling anyone “fellow Daoist.

” Her sudden use of “fellow Daoist” indicated that she acknowledged Li Chang’an and would most likely mention this to Yao Lanqin.

Because of this address, Tang Hao’s expression darkened even more.

Just then,

a recording stone suddenly flew out from behind the alchemy furnace and landed in Li Chang’an’s hand.

Li Chang’an understood; this was the reward for passing the test.

He immediately checked the image on the recording stone.

The scene

depicted a female cultivator refining an elixir.

A token hung from her waist, identical to the one Li Chang’an had received.

“Senior Mu?”

Li Chang’an mused. This female cultivator must be Mu Yixin.

The elixir she was refining was none other than the Yixin Pill!

“This reward is quite good. It’s actually the process of refining the Yixin Pill; it will be helpful for my future refining of this elixir.”

Li Chang’an was in high spirits and accepted the recording stone.

Afterwards, the group left the blood-soaked lake and returned to the flying boat to rest.

About an hour later,

Li Chang’an glanced discreetly at the horizon and sensed a familiar Nascent Soul aura.

A short while later,

a streak of light pierced the sky, landing on the flying boat and transforming into Yao Lanqin’s figure.

Everyone rose and bowed to her.

“Greetings, Envoy!”

“Hmm.”

Yao Lanqin nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Ning Cailian.

“Are you alright?”

Her tone was less cold than usual, softening considerably.

Ning Cailian replied, “It’s alright. Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Li possesses fourth-tier alchemy skills and passed the alchemy assessment; otherwise, we would probably be dead in the lake.”

She knew that with just that fourth-tier trump card, they wouldn’t last an hour.

Yao Lanqin asked her, “Which Fellow Daoist Li?”

“It’s Fellow Daoist Li Chang’an from Changqing Mountain in Zhao Kingdom.”

Ning Cailian walked to Li Chang’an’s side and recounted the events to Yao Lanqin.

After listening, a subtle glint flashed in Yao Lanqin’s eyes, and she re-examined Li Chang’an.

“To be able to refine a fourth-tier pill with Golden Core cultivation does indeed demonstrate some alchemy talent, but don’t be arrogant. Within the Wanzhen Sect, there are countless geniuses like you.”

“This junior understands.”

Li Chang’an bowed respectfully, his tone humble.

Yao Lanqin added, “You’ve rendered meritorious service this time. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to the Wanzhen Sect to find me.”

“Thank you, Senior!”

Li Chang’an immediately expressed his gratitude.

The others were filled with envy.

They had gone to great lengths to earn those words from Yao Lanqin, but ultimately, it was the previously unremarkable Li Chang’an who received them.

However, they were all convinced of Li Chang’an’s worthiness of the words.

Afterwards,

Yao Lanqin announced that

due to the heavy casualties, the mission was ending early, and everyone could exchange their accumulated contributions for the treasures they needed.

No one objected.

And so ,

the flying boat carried everyone on their return journey.

Halfway there, the sect leader of the Baiyun Dan Sect, True Monarch Baiyun, arrived and took Tang Hao away.

Several hours later,

the flying boat arrived at Changqing Mountain.

Li Chang’an bid farewell to everyone.

Before leaving, Ning Cailian gave him a communication jade pendant.

He naturally accepted it and returned to the courtyard, watching the flying boat disappear into the distance.

After the flying boat vanished on the horizon

, Li Chang’an entered his cave, closed the door, and took out the formula for the One Heart Pill to examine it again.

Most of the ingredients in the formula could be exchanged for high-grade spirit stones.

A few required top-grade spirit stones or barter.

However,

Li Chang’an lacked trading channels.

Most of these materials had appeared after the upheaval in the cultivation world, rendering his previous connections and trading channels useless.

“I need to make more acquaintances with cultivators from the nine major immortal sects to expand my network.”

“The funding from Luo Qiantong can’t stop; I need to get him to expand to the nine domains as soon as possible.”

“The black market is a good channel. I’ve heard that the black market has already flourished throughout the nine domains and hasn’t been stopped by any immortal sect. I need to visit the black market more often…”

Many thoughts flashed through Li Chang’an’s mind.

Finally,

his gaze settled on the main ingredient of the One Heart Pill.

“The Refining Heart Jade is extremely valuable and seems to be very rare, even among the Nine Great Immortal Sects.”

“Furthermore, the two types of strange fire needed to refine the One Heart Pill are also difficult to obtain.”

Li Chang’an frowned slightly.

This was the first time he had encountered a pill that required the use of strange fire.

These two strange fires were the “Burning Heart Fire” and the “Seven Emotions Fire.”

Li Chang’an had never heard of them before.

“Qingqing is focused on the path of strange fires; perhaps she has heard of these two.”

Thinking of this, Li Chang’an immediately used his communication jade pendant to inquire about this matter with Zheng Qingqing.

Sure enough,

Zheng Qingqing had heard of the fame of these two strange fires.

“Chang’an, I have a scroll of ‘Strange Fire Records,’ which records hundreds of strange fires. Do you need it?”

“Of course!”

Li Chang’an immediately left Changqing Mountain and headed to the Zheng family’s territory.

Not long after,

he entered the depths of the Zheng family’s territory and met Zheng Qingqing.

Zheng Qingqing smiled gently, bright and beautiful, wearing her familiar fiery red dress, and handed the scroll of strange fire records to Li Chang’an.

“Chang’an, the Burning Heart Flame and the Seven Emotions Flame are both included. Take a look.”

“Alright!”

Li Chang’an took the Record of Strange Flames and carefully flipped through it. Descriptions of various strange flames floated before his eyes.

There were countless strange flames in the world.

Some were not scorching hot, but extremely cold.

Others were born with intelligence and could even devour other strange flames for cultivation.

Among them,

the Burning Heart Flame was rather special.

This flame affected one’s state of mind; if one came into close contact, one would experience torment and unconsciously recall countless painful memories from the past.

The Seven Emotions Flame was also very special.

This flame was not a strange flame of heaven and earth, but an artificial strange flame cultivated through a special method.

To obtain this flame, one needed to cultivate the “Seven Emotions Profound Art” and use the special magical power cultivated to ignite the flame.

“No wonder the One Heart Pill is so effective against the Heart Demon Tribulation.”

“Its refining conditions are so demanding. The Burning Heart Fire and the Seven Emotions Fire, even taken individually, are top-tier treasures for overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation.”

“Its main ingredient, the Heart Refining Jade, and several special auxiliary ingredients are also top-tier treasures for overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation.”

Li Chang’an understood.

The One Heart Pill cleverly integrates multiple top-tier tribulation-crossing treasures, undergoing a transformation on this basis, making its effects even better.

“Senior Mu is truly a genius, able to conceive of such an exquisite pill formula. Why can’t I come up with one?”

Li Chang’an sighed inwardly, his talent indeed far inferior.

He put away the Strange Fire Record and looked at Zheng Qingqing, his expression becoming more gentle.

“Qingqing, thank you very much this time. This Strange Fire Record has been of great help to me.”

“It’s good that you find it useful.”

Zheng Qingqing spoke softly, her jade-like fingers gently tugging at his sleeve.

“Chang’an, since you’re already here, why not stay a few more days?”

“Alright!”

Li Chang’an readily agreed.

With a wave of his hand, Zheng Qingqing’s cave entrance slammed shut, and layers of arrays rose up, isolating the cave from the outside world…

…

A few days later.

Li Chang’an emerged from the cave, his expression showing some weariness.

He swallowed a few pills to replenish his energy and looked back at Zheng Qingqing, who had just put on her clothes.

“Qingqing, the cultivation world is undergoing great changes. Many forces in the Yuan and Zhao kingdoms are facing difficulties. Has the Zheng family encountered any trouble?”

“Yes.”

“Oh? Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I didn’t want to disturb your cultivation…”

Zheng Qingqing sighed softly and told Li Chang’an about the Zheng family’s troubles.

After the upheaval in the world,

the Zheng family’s third-tier spiritual vein also improved.

Although it didn’t directly improve to the fourth tier, it had exceeded the limit of the third tier, and the spiritual energy within the vein was very abundant.

The entire Zheng family only had one Golden Core cultivator, Zheng Qingqing, so this spiritual vein naturally attracted covetousness.

Not long ago,

people from the Golden Core Wang family came and forced Zheng Qingqing to sell the spiritual vein.

The Wang family is an affiliated family of the Wan Zhen Sect, having returned with the sect. The family has five Golden Core cultivators, the strongest being at the late Golden Core stage.

These five had previously descended upon the Zheng family’s territory to intimidate them.

Fortunately,

the Zheng family’s array formation had been modified by Li Chang’an, making it a near-fourth-tier formation.

With Zheng Qingqing personally overseeing it, it was sufficient to repel the five.

However, many of the Zheng family’s properties outside the territory lacked such protection and were successively captured by the Wang family.

Currently,

most of the Zheng family members are confined within their territory, afraid to venture outside the protective array.

Upon hearing this, Li Chang’an asked, “Is it only the Wang family? Are there any other Golden Core or Nascent Soul forces?”

“No.”

“That makes things easier.”

Li Chang’an immediately summoned all the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Zheng family.

After years of development, the Zheng family now had over thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators, three of whom had reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.

If it weren’t for the lack of Core Formation treasures, they would have already attempted Core Formation.

Over the next ten days,

Li Chang’an used enough Core Formation treasures to help the three break through to the Golden Core realm.

Li Chang’an now had abundant resources; he could cultivate not just three Golden Core cultivators, but even three hundred.

These treasures were nothing to him; consider them his reward for receiving the Strange Fire Record.

Thus,

the Zheng family had four Golden Core cultivators, making them a formidable force among the Golden Core families in the entire Zhao Kingdom.

In addition,

Li Chang’an left behind more than ten puppets, including five near-fourth-tier puppets.

Any one of these puppets could easily overpower the strongest Golden Core cultivator in the Wang family.

After doing all this

, he calculated the future of the Zheng family and obtained a very favorable divination.

“The mere Wang family shouldn’t be considered troublesome.”

Li Chang’an immediately left.

It was late at night when he returned to Changqing Mountain. Just

past midnight.

A golden light appeared before him as usual.

[The divination has been updated]

[Today’s Divination: Neutral]

[Changqing Mountain has been attacked by an external enemy. You used an array to block the enemy, discovering that the opponent is Mu Wei, the son of Mu Teng, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Ancient Wood Sect.]

“Mu Teng’s son?”

Li Chang’an frowned slightly.

If Mu Teng still wanted to fight, he could have come to Changqing Mountain himself. Why send his son?

“Could it be that he’s worried Du Yi is still guarding Changqing Mountain?”

“Or perhaps, this was just Mu Wei’s unauthorized action, and Mu Teng himself was unaware?”

Various thoughts flashed through Li Chang’an’s mind.

Regardless,

this involved a Nascent Soul cultivator, making the matter somewhat troublesome.

“Only a Nascent Soul cultivator can deal with another Nascent Soul cultivator. This matter will require the Myriad Array Sect’s intervention, and it just so happens that Mu Wei is from an outsider.”

Li Chang’an didn’t intend to directly confront Mu Wei.

He was a vassal of the Myriad Arrays Sect, and if he were killed by Mu Wei, the sect would suffer a loss.

Therefore,

the Myriad Arrays Sect had a rule:

if someone from another region attacked without cause, the sect would help block them.

Li Chang’an immediately took out a colorful jade pendant and contacted Ning Cailian.

“Fellow Daoist Ning, I have a request.”

“What is it?”

Ning Cailian’s voice quickly rang out.

Li Chang’an told her, “A friend of mine told me that Mu Wei, a cultivator from the Ancient Wood Sect, is going to attack me. Please convey this to Senior Yao.”

“Mu Wei? Could he be the offspring of that Mu Tengtianjun?”

“Yes.”

“This matter is somewhat troublesome. Fellow Daoist Li, please wait a moment.”

Ning Cailian’s voice disappeared and didn’t return for a long time.

Li Chang’an waited patiently, casually performing a divination, which yielded a stable result.

He was about to perform a few more divinations

when suddenly,

a streak of light pierced the sky, landing on Changqing Mountain and transforming into the appearance of Yao Lanqin.

Li Chang’an was somewhat surprised, not expecting this person to come in person, and so quickly, most likely using a teleportation array.

“Greetings, Senior Yao!”

he immediately bowed.

Yao Lanqin used her magic to help him up.

“Li Chang’an, you received news that Mu Wei is going to attack you?”

“Yes, please save me, Senior.” “

Your information isn’t accurate enough. Mu Wei did indeed intend to attack you, but he has already returned.”

Yao Lanqin explained that Mu Wei had approached her about this matter several days ago.

However, she resolutely refused and did not accept any benefits from Mu Wei.

Mu Wei had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving,

he promised Yao Lanqin that he would not violate the rules of the sects and act rashly. “You can rest assured, he is a Nascent Soul cultivator with a good reputation; he wouldn’t break

his word.”
