The Legend of Immortality

Chapter 70 Foundation Building Pill

Time passed by minute by minute. The sky gradually brightened. Wu Yan sat cross-legged in the stone valley under the big stone, with his eyes closed, looking as if he had been in meditation for a long time.

The surrounding mountains and forests gradually regained their vitality, and birds began to fly out of the jungle to look for food. The small animals that had been sleeping all night also walked out of their caves and got up to gnaw the roots of the plants around them.

The strange thing was that within a radius of twenty feet around Wu Yan, there was no living creature. Wu Yan seemed to be unaware of all this, still closing his eyes and practicing breathing.

In a dense forest more than fifty feet away from the big stone, there were three sneaky people, looking at Wu Yan who was breathing under the big stone.

These three people were Mo Buchou, Du Chu, and Yu Jin who had tracked him all the way from Tianlang City. The three people were full of resentment at this time. Du Chu and Yu Jin had expected Wu Yan to return to the inn first, so they arrived at the inn first and made all preparations for an ambush, waiting for Wu Yan to fall into their trap and be caught. Unexpectedly, this kid was so slippery. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quietly escaped from the city overnight.

Fortunately, Mo Buchou had kept a backup plan in advance, otherwise the three of them might have really lost this kid. When Wu Yan left the valley, he quietly mixed in with the crowd. He thought he was unnoticed, but he didn't know that he had been spotted by Mo Buchou.

Wu Yan didn't return the white jade token that he had received in the Immortal Valley to enter the quiet room. After Mo Buchou reminded him, Yu Jin, who was guarding the valley entrance, didn't take back the white jade token.

The white jade token has a unique mark of the Loose Cultivator Alliance. Using a special forbidden method, the location of the person holding the white jade token can be quickly found.

Du Chu and Yu Jin waited in the inn for a long time before Mo Buchou arrived. The three wasted a lot of time, and when they caught up here, they happened to see Wu Yan meditating and practicing.

"Master Mo, there seems to be something strange around that kid?" The farmer stared at the environment around Wu Yan with his eyes wide open, and said with a strange look on his face.

"Yes, that kid is surrounded by poisonous things!" The scholar shrugged his nose, and his nostrils suddenly inhaled two pale white dust from the ground, and said after a pause. Suddenly, the scholar's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly took out a small medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a white pill, and swallowed it without thinking.

"What a vicious poison! I almost got poisoned by his "heartbeat"! I didn't expect that someone could actually make this legendary poison. Everyone be careful, this kid's poison technique is really extraordinary. I think, just in case, everyone should swallow a detoxification pill first to be safe." The scholar said, and gave the farmer and Taoist Mo Buchou a detoxification pill he had just taken.

Farmer Du Chu and Taoist Mo Buchou were both shocked, and hurriedly swallowed the detoxification pills. Then they looked at Wu Yan, who was calm and composed under the big rock.

"What should we do?" The farmer and the scholar were dumbfounded, and looked at Mo Buchou. Among the six deacons, Mo Buchou has always been valued by Taoist Duomu, because he is resourceful and can quickly think of solutions when encountering problems.

Mo Buchou stared at Wu Yan, who was more than fifty feet away, frowning and thinking. This range is already the range that the spiritual consciousness of the twelfth-level Qi training cultivator can perceive, but the three still dare not be careless, and their voices are very low.

"I didn't expect this kid to be so cautious after suffering a loss. This won't do. How can we catch him if it goes on like this? Hey, there's something strange. Look at that kid, what level of cultivation is he now?" Mo Buchou suddenly asked in surprise, looking in the direction of Wu Yan.

Farmer Du Chu and scholar Yu Jin were stunned, and used the Sky Eye Technique to look in the direction where Wu Yan was sitting cross-legged.

They saw that the surroundings of Wu Yan turned gray in an instant, and only the direction of his Dantian emitted a very dazzling white light. The white light emitted a full eleven white light threads, which scattered into the eleven meridians of Wu Yan's body.

"This, this, how is this possible!?" The farmer was shocked and couldn't speak clearly.

"He was clearly at the tenth level last night. How, how could he break through the tenth level and become an eleventh level cultivator in just half a night?" The scholar said with a giggle in shock.

The two of them had a look of seeing a ghost on their faces. They rubbed their eyes and observed carefully three or four times. Then they looked at each other and looked at Mo Buchou in disbelief.

The two waited for Mo Buchou to make a decision, but the worry in their eyes was unmistakable. The three of them were all at the ninth level of the Qi training period, and Wu Yan was now a cultivator at the eleventh level of the Qi training period. None of the three dared to say that they could beat Wu Yan. Three ninth-level cultivators, trying to capture an eleventh-level cultivator, just thinking about it makes me feel a little ignorant.

Mo Buchou stared at Wu Yan fiercely, his face becoming more and more ugly, and he glanced at the farmer and the scholar, gritting his teeth and said, "We can't retreat. I have already promised Senior Duoqian and Elder Jiang that I must capture this kid and bring him back to the Immortal Valley. However, things have changed now, and it seems unrealistic to capture him alive. Humph, I believe that the kid must have something that Elder Jiang wants, and taking the thing back will also be enough. With the three of us, it may not be possible to capture him alive, but if we join forces to launch a sneak attack and kill him, it is still very likely. What do you think?"

The farmer and the scholar were surprised and looked at the Taoist priest hesitantly. Previously, Taoist Duomu had ordered them to assist Mo Buchou to "persuade" the ignorant cultivator to join the Loose Cultivation Alliance. If it doesn't work, force can be used, which is what Taoist Duomu meant. Although he didn't understand why Taoist Duomu wanted this person to join the Loose Cultivation Alliance, his meaning was very clear, that he wanted to capture this person alive and bring him back to the Immortal Valley. Now Mo Buchou plans to kill this person. If he does so, it will violate the wishes of Taoist Duomu. If Taoist Duomu blames them for this, they will not be able to explain.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Mo Buchou thought for a while, and understood their thoughts. He sneered and said, "You two can rest assured. I have consulted Elder Jiang on this matter. Elder Jiang and I will take care of everything. You just need to execute it."

"Okay, then we will listen to you, Deacon Mo. But how to sneak attack him, we still have to think about it carefully." The farmer and the scholar looked at each other and nodded in agreement with the Taoist priest's proposal.

The three of them huddled together, whispering about how to sneak attack Wu Yan. After a while, the Taoist priest sneaked out of the woods and quietly turned south.

The farmer muttered something in a low voice, and a little yellow light flashed on his body. He thrust his hands into the ground, and his body burrowed into the soil and disappeared.

The scholar slapped the storage bag on his waist, and a green feather coat as thin as a cicada's wing appeared in his hand. The scholar put the feather coat on his body, and the whole person turned into a bush in an instant. The degree of realism was that even if you stood in front of him, you might not be able to distinguish it clearly.

A gust of wind blew, and the whole forest was quiet and motionless. Everything seemed to be the same as before entering the state of meditation.

Wu Yan suddenly opened his eyes and glanced around indifferently. Just breaking through the tenth level and successfully entering the eleventh level brought him not only an increase in cultivation, but also more of a spiritual connection and increased self-confidence.

Satisfied, he stood up and stretched his hands and feet. Wu Yan touched his chin and thought for a while. Suddenly, he slapped the storage bag on his waist. A white light spurted out of the storage bag, and three little iron men about a foot tall appeared in his hands.

Wu Yan threw the three little iron men to the east, south, and north with an expressionless face. The little iron men fell to the ground, burrowed into the soil, and disappeared.

Wu Yan clapped his hands and was about to take some more defensive measures. Suddenly, his face changed slightly and he looked at the road down the mountain in the south. One hand was clasped on the storage bag on his waist, and the other hand quietly took out something and clasped it in the palm of his hand.

After making all preparations, Wu Yan sneered at the oncoming person.

"Ah, Taoist Wu is really here? Haha, it's great to find Taoist friends!" Hearing a familiar smooth voice, Wu Yan couldn't help but sneer secretly.

The person who came was a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest carried an eight-diagram sword on his back, with a friendly smile on his face, looking at Wu Yan and greeting him warmly as if he had met an old friend for many years.

"Haha, it's Taoist Priest Mo. I wonder why Taoist Priest Wu is looking for me so hard? Is he here to arrest me?" Wu Yan smiled calmly, but his eyes were always fixed on Mo Buchou's face and hands.

Mo Buchou was stunned, then made an unhappy expression and said: "What does Fellow Daoist Wu mean by this? Do you think I want to harm you? Humph, what you said really hurts me. Do you know how much Senior Duoqian cares about you? He heard from Elder Yun Hezi and Elder Lu Cangli that you are proficient in alchemy, and I don't know how much he hopes to meet you and discuss this alchemy. Fellow Daoist Wu, Senior Duoqian is a very famous alchemist in our Tianlang Country. It is a good thing for all alchemy practitioners to get his guidance. I have been looking for you these days, hoping that you can go back to the Immortal Valley with me to meet Senior Duoqian. I wonder what Fellow Daoist Wu thinks?"

Mo Buchou used his eloquence to brag to Wu Yan about the achievements of Taoist Duomu in alchemy. As he spoke, he quietly walked towards Wu Yan, but finally stopped ten feet away.

Wu Yan frowned and looked at Mo Buchou, without answering, with a trace of suspicion on his face.

Seeing that Wu Yan was unmoved, Mo Buchou continued: "Don't you believe what I said? Senior Wu has no ill will towards you. You will know it after you meet him. Wu, you will be tempted by such a great opportunity to meet an alchemist and a master of the foundation-building stage. You should know that if we casual cultivators want to break through the Qi training stage and successfully build our foundation, it is almost impossible to succeed without a great opportunity and swallowing a spiritual pill that can break through the foundation. Even those sect cultivators have to rely on swallowing spiritual pills that can assist in building their foundation to have a hope of successfully building their foundation. I see Senior Duoqian was just tempted for a moment, so he showed some interest in you. If you are not interested, then I will have to go back and report. You know, Senior Duoqian can even refine the foundation-building pill that has caused a sensation in the world of cultivation. Hehe, fellow Taoist Wu, if you don't want to go, then I will have to go back now?" Hearing the name of the foundation-building pill, Wu Yan's guarded face finally showed a moving expression, and he said in surprise: "Foundation-building pill? Is it the legendary elixir that can increase the chance of success in foundation-building by 30% after being taken by a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage?"
