Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Although Chen Tian's words were phrased as an inquiry, his tone carried an undeniable air of authority, as if reminding Xiao Feng that he had to answer this question!

Xiao Feng was a clever man, and he naturally understood the meaning behind Chen Tian's words. Even though he felt frustrated, he hurriedly and respectfully said, "Fellow Daoist, please feel free to ask. I will definitely answer everything I know."

Chen Tian was very satisfied with Xiao Feng's attitude. He nodded and then frowned, saying, "Let me ask you, who is the alchemist who refines these Mysterious-grade spiritual pills for you? Are they trustworthy?"

To be honest, although Chen Tian was satisfied with this exchange, there was one thing that made him quite concerned. That was because he couldn't be sure whether the alchemist Xiao Feng had found was reliable or not.

After all, this involved refining Mysterious-grade pills!

The value of a single Mysterious-grade pill was equivalent to the total assets of a middle-sized sect. And every month from now on, Xiao Feng would be asking that person to refine one. Wouldn't this unusual behavior arouse suspicion in that person?

Ordinary alchemists were nothing to a large sect like the Brahma Sect. However, that person was a grandmaster capable of refining Mysterious-grade pills! This made their status completely different. Even if the Brahma Sect was the overlord of the cultivation world, they would still have to show some respect to such talent.

And if that person were to tell the Brahma Sect about Xiao Feng's anomaly, it would inevitably attract the sect's attention, leading to a thorough investigation.

Of course, Chen Tian didn't care about Xiao Feng's life or death at all. What he was really worried about was whether Xiao Feng would be unable to withstand the pressure and expose him.

The Brahma Sect was different from ordinary small sects. The reason it could run rampant in the cultivation world was because it possessed more than a dozen Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and there were even rumors that an old monster whose cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment stage was living in seclusion on an unknown mountain within the Brahma Sect.

Of course, this was just a rumor, after all, no one had ever seen a Foundation Establishment stage old monster appear in the cultivation world.

However, even so, the Brahma Sect, with more than a dozen Nascent Soul stage cultivators, could definitely be considered a behemoth in the entire cultivation world.

Therefore, if this matter were to alarm them, then Chen Tian's good days in the Brahma Sect would be interrupted, or even worse, Chen Tian would be hunted down by the Brahma Sect.

This was not the situation Chen Tian wanted to see, so he had to investigate this matter thoroughly.

Xiao Feng's title as 'Brahma Sect's Number One Genius' was not for nothing. He understood Chen Tian's concerns in an instant.

However, contrary to Chen Tian's expectations, Xiao Feng did not panic. Instead, he smiled slightly and said, "If it were someone else, I might not be able to say for sure, but this person, I can guarantee a million times over, this person is absolutely trustworthy!"

Hearing this, Chen Tian was truly curious. Through his understanding of Xiao Feng, he knew that this person was cautious and would always think thrice before acting or speaking. Yet this time, he spoke with such certainty, his tone very confident, as if he had great confidence.

This unusual appearance aroused Chen Tian's curiosity. After staring at Xiao Feng for a while, he slowly asked, "Oh, then tell me, why is this person absolutely trustworthy?"

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but I have done a favor for that person, so she will definitely not betray me," Xiao Feng said with a proud smile, and then told Chen Tian the whole story.

Since the Ling Family calamity, the Demon God Sect's arrogance had intensified. They were no longer satisfied with the territories in the west and began to advance towards the east controlled by the human race.

For a time, the entire cultivation world was on high alert. Major sects sent disciples in batches, rotating to the front lines every five years to annihilate the enemy.

As a leader in the cultivation world, the Brahma Sect naturally wouldn't sit idly by. Therefore, it sent the first batch of disciples, led by Xiao Feng, to the front lines to annihilate the demon race!

At that time, Xiao Feng was assigned by the Cultivation Alliance to a place called 'Lion Camel Ridge', and he was told to defend this place at all costs, not to lose it.

This 'Lion Camel Ridge' was a vital point. The Demon God Sect was launching a large-scale attack on this place, and the two sides were constantly engaged in fierce battles, evenly matched.

Under Xiao Feng's leadership, although the battle lines were tight, they were always thrilling but without danger.

One day, the Demon God Sect launched another attack on 'Lion Camel Ridge', but Xiao Feng quickly organized a counterattack, and the two sides became locked in a stalemate, engaging in a bitter struggle.

Just as the two sides were fiercely fighting with magical weapons and talismans, suddenly, a young woman and a thin middle-aged man broke into the battle.

They did not belong to either side, but had accidentally stumbled in because they had lost their way.

At that time, both of them were seriously injured, and they couldn't protect themselves in this battlefield where magical weapons were flying everywhere.

The young woman was even hit by a heavy hammer that flew over from who knows where, and she spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Fortunately, Xiao Feng discovered them in time and rescued them from the chaotic battlefield.

After some questioning, Xiao Feng learned that the young woman was an alchemist, and the thin middle-aged man was her guard. The two of them had originally wanted to collect some materials for making pills, but they didn't expect to go in the wrong direction and accidentally enter the battlefield.

What surprised Xiao Feng was that the woman was not an ordinary alchemist, but a grandmaster who could refine Mysterious-grade pills.

This discovery made Xiao Feng overjoyed, so he immediately invited them to join the Brahma Sect and become guest elders of the Brahma Sect.

Due to the special relationship between the two, Xiao Feng would ask the woman for help every time he stole pills. It could be said that the woman was Xiao Feng's accomplice, and the two were partners.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Feng dared to guarantee this person so confidently in front of Chen Tian.

When Chen Tian heard his words, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he asked further, "Then can you describe their appearance?"

"Huh..."

Looking at Chen Tian's excited appearance, Xiao Feng became even more suspicious.

However, since Chen Tian had asked, he had to answer, so he said, "Although that woman's alchemy skills are superb, her appearance is actually ordinary, and she has a red birthmark on her left face, so she can't be considered beautiful. As for the other man, he is about forty or fifty years old, with a gloomy face, never smiling, guarding the woman, never leaving, like a door god."

After describing the appearance of the two, Xiao Feng stopped and secretly sized up Chen Tian with the corner of his eye.

But at this time, Chen Tian was no longer as excited as before, or rather, the disappointment on his face was very obvious!

What was he disappointed about again?

Xiao Feng was even more puzzled!
