Chapter 82 Gathering

Danyuan Pavilion.

It is the largest medicine pavilion in West City. It seems to have the shadow of Wuquan Mountain Dantang behind it. It is said that it was founded by an alchemist from Dantang.

As soon as the foundation-building pill appeared.

It usually appeared in a shop with a strong background like Danyuan Pavilion.

When Wu Tao heard the news, he was indeed shocked at first, but after the shock, he was relieved quickly. He is still at the fifth level of Qi Refining and has a long way to go before he can build his foundation.

This foundation-building pill is destined to be out of his reach.

If he forces it, it will be a disaster for him.

No matter how big the opportunity is, it must be supported by one's own strength, otherwise it is not an opportunity, but a source of disaster.

Thinking of this, Wu Tao asked: "The foundation-building pill that appeared in Danyuan Pavilion should have flowed out from the inside of Wuquan Mountain, right?"

Gu Mingsheng laughed and said: "The foundation-building pill is only mastered by the seven righteous sects such as Wuquan Mountain. It is not from the Dantang of Wuquan Mountain. Can it be purchased from the hands of casual cultivators?"

This is a rhetorical question.

Wu Tao also knew how precious the foundation-building pill was.

It can be said that the foundation-building pill was monopolized by large sects such as Wuquan Mountain. It was impossible for a casual cultivator to refine the foundation-building pill. There was not even a first-level ninth-level alchemist, so how could a casual cultivator refine a second-level foundation-building pill?

The pill formula was also top secret.

Wu Tao understood this, and saw a trace of helplessness on Gu Mingsheng's face. He sighed and said, "Hey, this foundation-building pill appeared too quickly. I haven't reached the ninth level of Qi Refining yet, but I have no chance to get this foundation-building pill."

"I don't know when the foundation-building pill will appear again next time."

"By then, maybe I will have died... casual cultivators... casual cultivators... too difficult!"

Origin determines everything.

Wu Tao naturally understood Gu Mingsheng's self-pity. Gu Mingsheng is now in the middle stage of the eighth level of Qi Refining. According to his age, if there is no accident when hunting monsters, he will definitely reach the ninth level of Qi Refining in this life.

But the foundation-building pill that appeared at this time made Gu Mingsheng feel powerless. For someone like him who had the hope of breaking through the ninth level of Qi Refining, how could he not want to get the foundation-building pill and become a foundation-building cultivator? From then on, he could join Wuquan Mountain and no longer be a casual cultivator, oppressed by Wuquan Mountain everywhere.

Even if he stopped at the foundation-building stage in the future, if his descendants were more motivated, they could stay in Wuquan Mountain to practice and break away from the fate of casual cultivators.

The foundation-building pill appeared too early for Gu Mingsheng.

Danyuan Pavilion released the news of the foundation-building pill in order to attract the ninth-level casual cultivators of Qi Refining from various Xiuxian cities and auction the price high.

There are so many ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators, and Gu Mingsheng is fighting for them with his life?

Therefore, Gu Mingsheng started to complain about himself.

Wu Tao couldn't help but sighed, "Fellow Daoist Gu, you can't choose your birth. If you force it, your Dao heart will be covered with dust."

Gu Mingsheng forced a smile and said, "Well, Master Li Qi, don't comfort me. I just sighed like this. What else can we, as casual cultivators, do except accept our fate? We can't do anything."

"However, according to the previous rules, a foundation-building pill will flow out every fifty years."

"At that time, Master Li Qi will be over seventy years old. With Master Li Qi's talent, he can also cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining. Maybe he can also compete for the foundation-building pill and achieve foundation building."

"By then, you can join Wuquan Mountain and get rid of the fate of being a casual cultivator."

At this point, Gu Mingsheng showed a trace of envy.

Wu Tao shook his head and said, "Who knows what will happen in fifty years."

Gu Mingsheng said, "Yes."

With a sigh, he said, "It's just that this feeling of being manipulated by others is really unpleasant!"

Wu Tao knew what he meant.

Pills like the Foundation Building Pill are also scarce in a large sect like Wuquan Mountain. I don't know how many disciples have fought for it. Logically, there will be no surplus for the independent cultivators.

But a large sect like Wuquan Mountain built an immortal cultivation city and harvested independent cultivators. First, it was in the name of protection. Second, every fifty or sixty years, a Foundation Building Pill would flow out, giving independent cultivators a hope of building a foundation and crossing classes.

The means are upright, but independent cultivators have no choice but to fall into their trap voluntarily.

Gu Mingsheng drank a pot of spiritual tea in the Xuanyuan Magical Instrument Shop and left. Wu Tao knew that he had received the news of the Foundation Building Pill and was depressed. This person came to him to relieve his boredom.

But why didn't he go to Li Feiyao or other friends to relieve his boredom, but only to Wu Tao to relieve his boredom? It was because Wu Tao was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining and didn't feel much about the Foundation Building Pill.

But he would only waste his energy if he went to Li Feiyao to relieve his boredom. If he went to his friends to relieve his boredom, they were all in the late stage of Qi Refining and were obsessed with the Foundation Building Pill, which would only make him more depressed.

After Gu Mingsheng left, Wu Tao said for a long time: "Foundation Building Pill!"

To say that he didn't want it, that would be a lie.

Gu Mingsheng's visit this time also made him feel not very good. He couldn't help but think that Wuquan Mountain controlled the way for all casual cultivators to be promoted, not only controlling the number of casual cultivators to build foundations with the Foundation Building Pill.

It also controlled the weapon refiners with the earth fire.

Wuquan Mountain wanted you to be promoted, so it would be promoted. If it didn't want you to be promoted, you couldn't be promoted.

This feeling of helplessness can be deeply felt by any casual cultivator.

To dispel this negative energy, Wu Tao came to the weapon refining room to see his master Chen Shan.

The most important thing for him now is to take steady steps and improve his overall strength. There will always be opportunities.

On the second day, the news that Danyuan Pavilion would auction the Foundation Building Pill in two months was indeed flying all over the sky.

Wu Tao noticed that there were more and more casual cultivators in the inner city, and the immortal inns in the inner city seemed to be full.

These extra casual cultivators were undoubtedly the ninth-level Qi Refining casual cultivators who came from the other six sects’ immortal cultivation cities after hearing the news of the Foundation Establishment Pill auction.

The seven sects of the righteous way each released one Foundation Establishment Pill every fifty or sixty years, so there were only seven Foundation Establishment Pills. The number of casual cultivators was large, and the number of casual cultivators in one city was more than the total number of immortal cultivators in the seven sects, so there were naturally more ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators.

Seven Foundation Establishment Pills were not enough.

Therefore, as soon as the Foundation Establishment Pill was released, the ninth-level Qi Refining casual cultivators gathered in the immortal cultivation city under Wuquan Mountain.

However, these ninth-level Qi Refining casual cultivators were very low-key and did not cause any trouble. Instead, the low-level casual cultivators knew that many ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators had come, so they became polite when speaking and watched the road when walking. What if the one they met was the ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator?

The ninth level of Qi Refining kept a low profile, just for the foundation-building pill, and the casual cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining were also polite, and the patrol team's work suddenly became easier.

In this situation, Wu Tao rarely went out, either in the store or at home.

The matter of the foundation-building pill had nothing to do with him.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another month and a half had passed.

In the wilderness.

A figure came over, with an unconcealable joy on his face. His aura was a little unrestrained because he had just broken through the ninth level of Qi Refining. He thought to himself: "Sure enough, I have enough experience in exploring caves. This time, there was no danger. With the spiritual medicine in the cave, I stepped into the ninth level of Qi Refining."

"Now go back to West City, sell the harvest this time, and then go to Xuanyuan Magical Instrument Shop to redeem the jade slip."

This person is Chen Quanshou. He gradually became familiar with the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refining. It seems that he has thought of something and sighed again: "At the ninth level of Qi Refining, it is time to plan for the foundation-building pill."

"The last time the foundation-building pill appeared in West City was more than 50 years ago..."

"Not only West City, other Xiuxian cities should also be explored."

Speaking of this, Chen Quanshou walked towards the direction of the West City of Wuling Xiuxian City.
