I will survive with proficiency

"snort."

"Speaking of which, what else can they do?"

When Xu Liang mentioned these white-bearded veterans, he was filled with indignation and his teeth clenched.

Now that there are only a few decades left before the catastrophe of imprisonment and restoration, the old white-bearded Taoist has already begun to take action.

Appearing in the Tianyin Immortal Realm this time is actually not about selecting people.

Instead, he came to inform the sect here in advance, which is equivalent to ventilating in advance.

Many benefits were promised.

In other words, under coercion and inducement, many sects find it difficult to refuse.

"Do you know why the god-transforming monks in the human world rarely take action?" Xu Liang leaned forward and looked at Chen Ping and the two sitting next to him.

"Why?" Jia Zhong frowned.

I wonder why Xu Liang suddenly mentioned this?

Isn't it clear that the three people talking about are white-bearded Taoists?

Xu Liang snorted:

"There are many reasons, but the most important one is that the spiritual energy and Taoist charm of the human world are not enough. Every time they take action is a kind of harm to themselves."

"This is the case even in battles, how can we talk about ascension?"

"So it is extremely difficult to ascend to the upper world at the peak of the transformation of gods, because the spiritual energy and Taoist charm are not enough. But Shengxian Valley has given these god-transformation monks a promise that when they have the opportunity to ascend, they will be allowed to enter Shengxian Valley Go through the tribulation and ascend."

"How many gods can refuse such a benefit?"

When it comes to the road to immortality, most people are selfish.

The True Master of Transformation God will be no exception.

The implication of Xu Liang's words was very clear to Chen Ping and Jia Zhongshou, that is, don't expect the blessing of the True God Transformation.

Even if the True Master of Transformation God is not complicit, he is probably being restrained.

In other words, it is difficult for Tianyin Sect to stay out of the matter.

"Did Fellow Daoist Xu find out how high the mortality rate is?" Jia Zhongshou asked worriedly.

Xu Liang shook his head:

"There are very few descriptions of the last imprisonment and restoration catastrophe, and not many people even know about it. Some gods may know about it, but they are silent. It is difficult for us to know."

"But the more this happens, the more strange it becomes, isn't it?"

It's indeed strange.

If it is all a good thing, and the opportunities given to those who imprison and support them outweigh the sacrifices, isn't that something worthy of publicity?

Now it seems that these public opinions have been suppressed.

Some people may have their relevant memories wiped out.

Xu Liang continued:

"This time the white-bearded Taoist appeared in the Tianyin Immortal Domain, he might have given the sect a list of potential candidates."

"As for the casual cultivators living in Tianyin Immortal City, Xu inquired and heard that some monks were initially interviewed by Taoist White Beard. Most of them have not heard anything. I guess that Taoist White Beard prefers to start with the sect."

According to Xu Liang, some continents have been gradually unblocked, and some monks have begun to leave Tianyin Fairy City.

How big is the human world?

It is difficult for white-bearded Taoists to find these scattered talented monks, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

But we need to find the sect where these talented monks are located and let the sect voluntarily hand over these talented disciples to them.

This is much more convenient.

It is precisely because of this that for those monks whose original sects have been opened or have signs of opening on the continent, even if these monks are in Tianyin Fairy City, most white-bearded Taoists will not go to these people directly.

Only those casual cultivators from Tianyin Immortal City whose original sects were located on the mainland where there was no movement to unblock them, and white-bearded Taoists, would interview them.

This made Jia Zhongshou feel relieved again.

No Taoist with white beards has come to visit these days. Jia Zhongshou originally thought that he was the lucky one.

"What will Fellow Daoist Chen do next?" Jia Zhong looked at Chen Ping.

Among the three, Xu Liang is a special being.

He is a real casual cultivator.

More of a rebel.

Jia Zhongshou and Chen Ping are more similar.

If you refuse, let alone the great pressure it will bring to Master and the sect.

Just for an individual, even if he has escaped these decades and escaped the catastrophe of imprisonment and restoration, will Shengxian Valley settle the score afterwards?

If you agree, it will be the separation of Yuanying, which means that the road ahead will be more difficult.

Moreover, there is a huge risk of death.

"I don't know either. Let's see what happens." Chen Ping was noncommittal.

He would never risk his demise by becoming a temporary provider or even a sacrificer for the Confinement.

Isn't it because I cultivate so low-keyly that I can live forever?

Even ruins and secret places are tried not to be touched as much as possible.

Not to mention sacrificing the Nascent Soul?

What's more, from the information explored by Xu Liang, the purpose of this group of people does not seem to be that simple. It is not purely to suppress the demon world, but to secretly benefit themselves at the same time.

To benefit themselves by exploiting the human world.

"There is one more thing I want to tell you about the dome ruins." Xu Liang paused and said:

"These years of exploration have given us a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of the dome ruins. It is true that the dome ruins are bizarre, but they are not inaccessible. On the contrary, there seems to be an unknown family guarding it."

"Exploration revealed that although the dome site is not the Shengxian Valley, it is most likely one of the entrances to the Shengxian Valley, or one of the fulcrums that maintains the stability of the Shengxian Valley."

Over the years, Xu Liang got to know a group of fellow Taoists who also hated white-bearded Taoists, and even formed a small or large team.

This team not only intercepted and killed the White-bearded Taoist, but also spared no effort to explore the White-bearded Taoist's survival base, the Shengxian Valley.

Therefore, more and more information has been explored over the years.

"To be honest with you two Taoists, among the white-bearded Taoists who came to Tianyin Fairy City this time, the weakest Nascent Soul sixth-level monk has been marked by us, and we must intercept and kill him." Xu Liang gritted his teeth and said.

I have to say that Chen Ping still admires Xu Liang.

The first level of Yuanying dares to plot against the sixth level of Yuanying.

"."

The three of them talked secretly for a full hour and still had a lot to say.

"Hey, it's really not easy to become an immortal." Jia Zhongshou said with emotion, and then added:

"By the way, the news I heard from the General Affairs Pavilion a few days ago is that the continent where my sect is located has shown signs of being unblocked. I may leave Tianyin Fairy City in the near future."

"Today's world is in chaos. When you leave Tianyin Fairy City, you may leave secretly. Therefore, this time may be the last time that Jia and the two fellow Taoists meet in Tianyin Fairy City. When you leave, you will not deliberately look for the two of them again. Fellow Taoist say goodbye."

"Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Xu, Mr. Jia would like to offer you a cup of tea instead of wine. We have a long way to go. Both of you know where my sect is. Mr. Jia welcomes these two fellow Taoists to visit at any time."

Is the mainland where Jia Zhongshou's sect is located about to be unblocked?

Chen Ping was delighted when he heard this.

The continent where Jia Zhong's sect is located is adjacent to the Piaomiao Continent. From this point of view, the Piaomiao Continent may be coming soon.

In this way, if you really have to leave Tianyin Fairy City, you will at least have one more place to hide.

After all, Piaomiao Continent is more familiar.

"Fellow Daoist Jia, fellow Daoist Xu, I wish everything goes well and the path to immortality will last forever." Chen Ping substituted tea for wine.

"The path of immortality will last forever." The two toasted.

The three of them drank it all in one go, and the catastrophe was imminent. They said goodbye this time, and they didn't know when they would see each other again.

It may even be rare to see it again in this life.

A few days later, Chen Ping went to the General Affairs Pavilion.

I found out that the Piaomiao Continent has not been unsealed yet, but I accidentally heard some news from others, that is, more than half of the previously closed continent has been gradually unsealed over the past few decades.

In these unsealed continents, it is either clear that there is no passage from the demon world to the human world, or the passage has been completely blocked.

And they all have one characteristic: most of the demons on this continent have been killed.

If this continues, the Piaomiao Continent may really not be far away.

The reception room of the City Lord's Mansion leading to Bixian Pavilion.

Two monks, an old man and a young man, visited the city lord's mansion today.

The old man has gray hair, while the girl has a youthful air.

"Eighteen fellow Taoists, as Lao Cai said just now, if Senior Biyuan is willing to help refine the Qingying Pill, I will only take one pill, and no matter how much is left, I will not ask for it. And I am willing to pay extra." The old man sat down. Opposite eighteen.

The young monk next to the old man pushed forward a storage bag on the stone table.

Seeing this, Shiba opened his mouth and said:

"It's not easy for you two to come from afar, but let's be honest. Master never makes elixirs for others. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you two. You'd better please come back."

Shiba is quite serious when it comes to talking about business.

The old man was unwilling and asked again:

"I wonder if you, Eighteen Taoists, can do something convenient? Can you let me meet with Senior Biyuan? We really have no other choice, so we came here to bother Senior Biyuan."

Shiba was already used to these requests for help from his master, so he refused again:

"It's not that Shiba doesn't let you two see him. It's that the master is not in the pavilion. Besides, the master really doesn't make elixirs for others. You two can find out if you go out and ask around. There's no point in waiting here."

The old man sighed.

Then, he asked again in a low voice:

"What about the other fellow Taoists in Bixian Pavilion? If you can help with the refining, I would be extremely grateful."

The two settled for the next best thing.

Bi Yuan is a famous alchemy genius, and Bi Yuan's disciples also have some alchemy geniuses.

For example, Rongrong is such a genius.

These talented disciples have been personally taught by Bi Yuan and are stronger than most alchemists outside. If they can refine alchemy under the guidance of Fairy Bi Yuan, their success rate will definitely be good.

Moreover, Tianyin Sect also has some powerful alchemists who also occasionally study in Bixian Pavilion and receive a certain inheritance from Fairy Biyuan to a certain extent.

If these alchemists take action, they will also be much more powerful than the casual cultivators outside.

"Here, I'll ask Shiba for you. But don't get your hopes up. They're all very busy, and many alchemists are not in the sect." Shiba said perfunctorily.

"Then thank you eighteenth fellow Taoist." The old man stood up quickly to express his thanks.

He quickly stood up and said goodbye.

Chen Ping had just returned from the Immortal City. When he passed by the stone steps of Feizhou, he saw two strange monks walking down from the top.

When he saw the female cultivator, Chen Ping couldn't help but be stunned.

It's actually her?

Jiruding?

After the secret realm of Underworld was opened, Chen Ping, under the recommendation of Jia Zhongfa, once purchased a spiritual material called "Wild Prison Asparagus" from this female cultivator.

That is the main ingredient for refining Zhenying Dan.

Jiruding was not sold at that time.

The three of them passed by each other. Ji Ruding glanced at Chen Ping and seemed to think he looked familiar, but he didn't remember who Chen Ping was.

I couldn't help but look back a few more times.

Follow the old man walking down the steps.

quite a while.

"Master, Ru Ding remembered where he had seen that person just now." On the flying boat, Ji Ruding thought hard for a long time before he recalled the scene in the underworld.

"who?"

The old man didn't realize for a moment who Jiruding was talking about.

Ji Ruding said:

"The fellow Taoist I just met on the way back, the fellow Taoist from the City Lord's Mansion."

"Back then, outside the exit of Huangquan Kingdom, my disciple had seen him and had a chance encounter with him."

"Really?" The old man suddenly misunderstood:

"Since we have a friendship and he is from the City Lord's Mansion, can we use his friendship to get Fairy Biyuan to come forward to make elixirs?"

Jiruding twitched the corners of his mouth and stiffened his facial muscles as he said:

"Master, my disciple offended him back then."

…

Chen Ping returned to Bixian Pavilion and saw that Shiba was still there, and asked, "Is that person just now Ji Ruding?"

Eighteen looked surprised:

"You know her?"

At the exit of the underworld, Ji Ruding was Jia Zhong's string. Shiba didn't know that Chen Ping had approached Ji Ruding.

She didn't even know what elixir Chen Ping needed to refine when buying herbs.

Chen Ping did not go into details, but just asked: "We have met each other once, what are they doing here?"

"Let's ask Master to make alchemy." Shiba curled his lips.

Fairy Biyuan is a well-known alchemist. When Fairy Biyuan was still a Nascent Soul, there was an endless stream of people who wanted to ask Fairy Biyuan to help make alchemy.

It's just that Fairy Biyuan rarely agrees.

Ji Ruding came here this time just to ask Fairy Biyuan to make elixirs.

To Chen Ping's surprise, what she needed to refine was Zhenying Dan.

Ji Ruding herself is not practicing body training, and her master, the old man, also does not need the True Ying Pill.

But there was a senior brother in Jiruding who went wrong while refining his body.

You need True Ying Dan to save your life.

Over the years, Ji Ruding has frequently entered the secret realm just to help his senior brother find spiritual materials for refining the True Ying Pill, and even the Green Dark Fruit.

This was the case when he entered the underworld.

However, because the field of use of Zhenying Dan is very narrow and is only valuable for body-refining monks to attack specific passes, this kind of elixir is basically not sold on the market.

In addition, the rareness of spiritual materials is not conducive to alchemists' daily practice of alchemy, so most alchemists cannot refine Zhenying Dan.

Because of this, Master Jiruding and his disciples wanted to try their luck with the famous Fairy Biyuan.

This kind of elixir is too difficult to obtain, so the more talented an alchemist is, the higher the success rate will be.

Otherwise, if we try again, we still don’t know how long it will take to collect all the materials.

"Can Fairy Biyuan refine the True Ying Dan?" Chen Ping asked.

"I don't know. However, my master is extremely talented and alchemy techniques are interoperable. Even if he has never practiced alchemy before, his success rate will be much higher than that of other alchemists." Shiba mentioned his master with an expression of admiration.

And said:

"Jiruding and the two also know that this kind of elixir is difficult to practice, so to be on the safe side, they provided the spiritual materials needed for two furnaces of elixirs."

Two furnaces?

It’s really a big investment.

Chen Ping laughed at himself that it took him decades to prepare the raw materials for a furnace.

Not only that.

Ji Ruding and the other two also knew that Fairy Biyuan would not easily help others make elixirs, so in addition to promising that they only needed one elixir and not to bother with the rest, they also provided generous rewards in an attempt to impress Biyuan. Fairy Yuan or his genius disciple.

After listening to Shiba's introduction, Chen Ping knew that his opportunity had come.

This is the spiritual material delivered to your door.

Not only do you not have to spend money to buy it, but you are also paid, and you can even earn a favor.

God-given opportunity.

"Don't ask other brothers about this. I'll help you deal with them." Chen Ping took the initiative to take over the job.

"Are you coming?" Shiba looked at Chen Ping doubtfully.

Although Chen Ping has stayed in Bixian Pavilion for many years, he has never been involved in these mundane matters.

"Isn't it because you are very busy, so I can help you share some of the work." Chen Ping said with a smile.

Shiba was even more confused.

…

Two days later.

City Lord's Mansion.

Chen Ping had been thinking about finding Master Ji Ruding and his disciples these past two days, but he never thought that before he took action, the two of them actually came to his door.

This time I wanted to find Chen Ping by name.

Therefore, at this moment, there were only master and apprentice Jiruding and Chen Ping in the reception hall.

"Senior Chen, I offended many people outside the Kingdom of Underworld back then, but the Wild Asparagus Asparagus was indeed the medicinal material that Ru Ding specifically entered the Kingdom of Underworld to find." Ji Ruding was the first to apologize. She was still in the Golden Elixir realm.

In the past two days, their master and apprentice had inquired about Chen Ping's identity.

Knowing that Chen Ping was a resident of Bixian Pavilion, and possibly even the Taoist companion in the legend of Fairy Biyuan, he never thought that he had inadvertently offended such an important person.

After hearing this information, the two were uneasy.

I immediately decided to pay him a visit.

Chen Ping waved his hand:

"It doesn't matter."

"Buying and selling are free, Miss Ji doesn't have to worry about it."

He really didn't care.

It is up to others to decide whether they want to sell other people's things, and it is normal to sell them or not.

What's more, from the current point of view, Jiruding himself needs the wild prison asparagus.

There is no reason to sell.

The old man apologized again, but when he saw that Chen Ping didn't pay much attention, he cautiously mentioned the matter of alchemy.

Although the old man is also a Nascent Soul, his cultivation level is even higher than that of Chen Ping. But in front of Chen Ping, his posture was very low, even a little flattering.

Promise to give Chen Ping a certain amount of personal gratitude.

Chen Ping did not entrust him to the virtual snake and went straight to the topic:

"Fairy Biyuan will not help you two make elixirs, so you two don't have to look forward to it."

"But there are some unborn alchemists in the Tianyin Sect who have been inherited by Fairy Biyuan to a certain extent. If you two are interested, you can connect with them."

When the old man heard Chen Ping say that Fairy Biyuan would not take action, he felt a little disappointed.

But when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but rekindled his hope and asked quickly:

"May I ask how sure the alchemist who is willing to help make alchemy is?"

Chen Ping, as a 'connector' and not an 'alchemist', naturally cannot know too much in detail. He just said roughly:

"How can we be sure about this unconventional elixir?"

"It's just that my alchemy master brother is very talented. In the past, he had a 30% success rate when refining rare elixirs."

30% success rate?

This success rate is nothing to mention in front of Fairy Biyuan.

But Zhenying Pill is indeed an unconventional pill. It is rare for alchemists outside to refine this kind of pill. If not for this, the master and apprentice would not have come all the way to Tianyin Immortal City.

"good."

The old man gritted his teeth and said.

Take a gamble.

They had only prepared raw materials for two furnaces. If the finished elixir could not be produced in both furnaces, they would have to find raw materials again.

It might take another few decades.

But at the moment they have no better choice.

"This is a spiritual material. According to the agreement, we will only take one Zhenying Dan afterward. This is the promised additional 800 top-quality spiritual stones. After the completion of the matter, we will give another 1,000 top-quality spiritual stones." The old man stored the items. Hand over the bag.

Chen Ping did not accept the storage bag, but said:

"My alchemy brother also has a hobby. He doesn't like others to watch when he is refining alchemy."

"This..." The old man and Jiruding were stunned for a moment.

According to industry practice, if someone entrusts someone to make an elixir, the entruster has the right to observe the elixir-making process from a distance.

You must observe at least the process of adding ingredients and the final process of taking the elixir.

Otherwise, who knows if you have added rare spiritual materials? Who knows if you will clearly refine the elixir but tell the client that you didn't refine it?

"We are not alchemists and cannot learn the art of alchemy. Fellow Daoist Chen, can you please help tell your senior brother? We can just observe from a distance." The old man requested.

Chen Ping shook his head:

"cannot."

"My senior brother has a very eccentric personality and doesn't like to have contact with others."

The corners of the old man's mouth twitched.

After looking at the spiritual materials on the table, he finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, we are waiting for the disciples who trust Fairy Biyuan."

The old man pushed the storage bag to Chen Ping. Seeing that Chen Ping still didn't take the storage bag, he was startled: "Is there still some conditions?"

Chen Ping was noncommittal:

"My senior brother is in retreat, and there are other pills waiting to be refined. The two of you need to wait for at least five more years for the True Ying Pill."

After five years, Chen Ping estimated that his alchemy skills should have reached the maximum level.

After all, alchemy techniques have commonalities, and the current Qi Shen Dan has reached its maximum level.

Chen Pingyuan thought that the old man would hesitate, but he didn't expect that the old man didn't mind at all:

"no problem."

"Can wait."

"Tianyin Immortal City is very good. It doesn't matter if I wait to practice here for five years."

Um.

That's no problem.

After all the details were negotiated, Chen Ping collected the spiritual stones and spiritual materials.

It has to be said that the two of them really spent a lot of money. In addition to 800 top-quality spiritual stones, they also provided some sect-unique magical weapons and other property as meeting gifts.

Chen Ping, no, Chen Ping’s senior brother was not interested in these, so he cashed them all out at Chen Ping’s suggestion.

In the end, a total of 1,300 top-quality spiritual stones were harvested.

It was like getting rich overnight.

If you want to refine the Qi Divine Pill, it will take 7 years.

Returning to his cave, Chen Ping took out the spiritual materials belonging to Master Ji Ruding and his disciples from the storage bag and counted them.

Two furnaces of spiritual materials, a lot.

All spiritual materials are placed in specific spiritual lock boxes. As long as they are not opened frequently, even if many of the spiritual materials are fresh, the medicinal power will not be lost after decades.

‘I didn’t expect that after looking for spiritual materials for so many years, I finally found them without any effort. ’

‘It’s better to be a craftsman. ’

Chen Ping smiled self-deprecatingly.

Continue the proficiency of Gan Zhen Ying Dan.
