Pei Tianlan.

The posture of sixty-nine heavenly tribulations.

So terrifying! This evaluation is not derogatory, it is a super evaluation in Juntian Realm or even Haotian Realm.

It is the talent and foundation that hundreds of millions of monks dream of.

The last time a Hedao cultivator who had experienced sixty-nine heavenly tribulations appeared in Juntian Realm was a million years ago.

Who is praising him to death? Shen Lian's mood fluctuated.

"This cultivator ascended to heaven with his entire world, and also founded the Heaven-Repairing Sect. He ascended with a small world, and with the luck of his entire world, he has a high probability of overcoming the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations."

"Sixty-nine Heavenly Tribulations, the fusion of the Dao, isn't that better than..."

"Shh!"

"No wonder Juntian Pavilion issued a disciple recruitment order. As soon as you enter the sect, you will be treated as an inner disciple. Maybe even the Hedao Patriarch will accept you as a disciple and keep you by his side to teach you wholeheartedly."

The disciples of Juntian Pavilion are divided into three categories: outer sect, inner sect, and true sect. The inner sect disciples who enter the mountain can replace the true sect disciples by successfully challenging them.

Therefore, becoming an inner disciple as soon as you enter the sect has saved you a huge step.

The status of a true disciple is comparable to that of the elders in the pavilion. Above the true disciple is the seed of Hedao. In the holy land and cave heaven within the Haotian territory, the seed of Hedao is also called the Son of God, or the giant of inheritance.

It represents the ability to inherit and protect the holy land.

Xuan Yao, the Holy Son of Juntian Pavilion, is a cultivator in the late stage of refining emptiness who has comprehended at least two rules.

When this cultivator had achieved perfection in his Spiritual Transformation, he killed more than one cultivator in the early stage of Void Refinement. As for his subsequent battle records, no records have been passed down.

Shen Lian is also capable of killing cultivators across realms, but it is difficult to judge Xuan Yao's true combat power now.

But now Shen Lian is not interested in the so-called Xuan Yao at all. All he hears is Pei Tianlan.

Juntian City is extremely far away from the Huai River, more than 300 galaxies away. It is normal for talented cultivators to be sought after.

But he always felt uncomfortable.

Although the matter was concluded in the Yunxiao Realm, and Pei Tianlan was carried with him, the Immortal Realm has many means, and there are many forces that have been passed down for millions of years. Who knows what kind of strange secret methods some old monsters will come up with when their immortal journey comes to an end?

Pei Tianlan's name could be heard over such a long distance, so the news of his ascension must have spread throughout the Shangjuntian Realm.

"How did these people spread the news that I could survive the 69th Heavenly Tribulation? Could it be that they have sensed my strength?"

"What a poor vision."

You should know that according to the news circulating outside, the probability of Xuan Yao, the Holy Son of Juntian Pavilion, surviving the 69-day tribulation is no more than 10%.

He was suddenly brought to the same level as the Holy Son of Juntian Pavilion.

"Could it be that someone is behind this?"

The more Shen Lian thought about it, the more he felt that there was a conspiracy, and that someone was trying to harm him.

“Fortunately, I brought Lao Pei with me and changed to a local household registration.”

…

After handing in the refined Zi Ling Xu Yun Dan, the number of contribution points on the contribution board increased by 130.

Shen Lian plans to go back and practice for half a year before coming back to take on new tasks.

On the way back, I deliberately walked around Juntian City without deliberately catching the conversations around me, and found that the name "Pei Tianlan" was indeed spread from the Huai River.

The Huai River and Yunxiao Realm were also mentioned.

It's just that most of the monks who were communicating were just repeating what others said, and they just treated it as a topic of conversation, without any deeper relevance.

On the contrary, many cultivators were extremely envious of Pei Tianlan, their eyes turned green, and they wished that Pei Tianlan was themselves.

"Boring, I don't know the troubles of being famous."

After walking around the city and buying some spiritual medicines, Shen Lian returned to the cave residence in Tianchen Mountain.

…

Juntian Pavilion.

It was suspended above Juntian City, like a colorful cloud of celebration.

After passing through this dazzling cloud, you will enter an extremely vast cave.

Above the cave, there is a magical treasure that looks like a Si Nan spoon hanging high. This is the Juntian Key, the magical treasure that protects the Juntian Pavilion.

This item had long survived the fourth spiritual tribulation and had been passed down for millions of years. It was a seventh-rank spiritual treasure with auxiliary functions.

A hazy light fell from the Juntian Key, covering the undulating mountains, rivers and caves below.

Inside the Juntian Key, a young male cultivator was sitting cross-legged in a colorful hazy spiritual light. This cultivator had starry eyebrows and sword-like eyes, and the rules of the five elements surrounded his body, transforming into an inverted colorful bowl.

The wisps of sword energy in the bowl intertwined and condensed into colorful sword pills, emitting endless sharpness.

When the young monk was comprehending the rules, clear wisps of the power of the five elements were reflected and surrounded the monk, as if willing to be picked.

"puff!"

Suddenly, one after another colorful sword balls exploded, smashing the colorful bowl into pieces.

Just as the sword energy was about to hit the original body, wisps of colorful clouds rolled down from the void, sweeping away all the sharp sword energy in the sky.

The young monk groaned and woke up instantly, "Thank you Master Shi for your help, otherwise it would take at least another hundred years to heal my wounds."

"The Five Elements and the Way of the Sword are both the power of great rules. It is much more difficult to integrate them than the five small rules within the Five Elements, but once integrated, the power will increase exponentially."

In the haze, a vague shadow of a spoon appeared and disappeared.

"It's a pity that I'm not a sword spirit treasure, otherwise I could have helped you integrate sword and the five elements and further improved your foundation. One step wrong will lead to all the steps wrong. Sigh..."

The young male cultivator stood up and bowed respectfully towards the phantom, "Now Xuan Yao is very satisfied to have the protection of Grandmaster Shi."

"Well, if you are willing to give up, coupled with the background of my Juntian Pavilion, the small rules and single rules will be combined, and the success rate will be more than half."

"Grandmaster Shi, I will consider it. If the time comes and I really cannot make the two great rules merge, I will naturally settle for the next best thing and choose a single rule to achieve enlightenment."

Xuan Yao said in a deep voice.

There are three, six and nine types of Hedao heavenly tribulations, and thirty-nine, sixty-nine and ninety-nine each have different differences.

The unity of the five elements rules belongs to the great rule, which is both a fusion rule and the basic way. If it is taken as the foundation of the way, it will bring about the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations.

Comprehending the five elements rules three times can bring about sixty-nine heavenly tribulations. The threshold seems not high. After all, a cultivator who wants to refine the void must complete the five elements.

The threshold is not high, but relying solely on the comprehension of the five elements rules is not enough to withstand the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations.

Therefore, those who are undergoing the tribulation must also comprehend other major rules such as the sword art and the thunder art with strong attack power. For example, Xuan Yao has added the sword art, and the difficulty increases in a step-by-step manner, and he can never make the sword art and the five elements merge.

If you want to survive the tribulation, you must increase your foundation. Increasing your foundation will inevitably make the tribulation stronger. This is a question of spear and shield.

This is also the reason why many Hedao cultivators take a step back. Since they cannot survive the 69 heavenly tribulations, they might as well take a big step back and choose a single attribute like gold, wood, water, fire or earth.

The rules of the single attributes of the five elements can also be integrated with other major rules and attributes to become the foundation for improving one's own combat power.

However, the Five Elements Rule is the foundation for subsequent practice and is related to the subsequent realm of the Hedao state.

For example, the Hedao ancestor of the contemporary Juntian Pavilion, he cultivated the five elements before Hedao, and chose the single gold rule Hedao when he was in Hedao.

After achieving He Dao, gold became his primary element and swordsmanship became his auxiliary element. His combat power was among the best among those of the same level in He Dao.

But the road ahead is blocked, without the five elements, the path is stopped.

Unless one can defy fate and change destiny, legends are possible, but that kind of thing that can change destiny is only a legend even in the Haotian Realm, let alone in the Juntian Realm.

It is said that a semi-immortal giant gave it to his Taoist partner, but it is unknown how it was modified. However, it is very likely to be an innate thing.

"By the way, during the time you were in seclusion, a message came from the Huai River area that a small world called the Yunxiao Realm was taken to the Immortal Spirit Realm."

"Ascend to the world?"

Xuan Yao's eyes flashed.

"Yes, the sect's elders' council has issued a disciple recruitment order, allowing this cultivator to join the sect."

"The Elders' Council's comprehensive pacification of the cultivators who led the Yunxiao Realm to ascend to the heavens is at the level of sixty-nine heavenly tribulations."

Xuan Yao's expression did not change, "The elders in the council are a bit pedantic, but they are not senile. Putting aside their talents, the fact that this cultivator can lead an entire world to ascend is enough to show his ability.

It is only right that such a cultivator should be accepted into the mountain gate, least he be accepted into the sect by others and create an opponent for my Juntian Pavilion.

Even if you cannot advance to the He Dao in the future, as long as you can cultivate to the Great Perfection of Lian Xu, you can also be a great help to our Jun Tian Pavilion."

"Alright, don't come here for the next hundred years. In order to help you comprehend the fusion of the two rules, I have consumed a lot of my essence and need to recover."

After Xuan Yao bowed respectfully, he flew out of the Juntian Key.

After returning to the cave, Xuan Yao saw a jade slip on his desk.

When I picked it up, I saw that it was news about 'Yunxiao Realm and Pei Tianlan'.

At the bottom of the jade slip is printed the mark of a swaying green spiritual tree, which is the mark of the Lingmu Immortal Palace.

The cultivators of Lingmu Immortal Palace are spread throughout the immortal world and are well-informed.

A few days later, a middle-aged cultivator in a green robe entered Xuan Yao's cave with a smile. Although his aura was only at the late stage of the Refined Void Realm, he was not too restrained by Xuan Yao's identity.

"Friend Tong, long time no see."

Xuan Yao had already dismissed the cultivators in the cave and led the cultivators who came to sit down. As he spoke, he picked up the jade slip with the seal of the spirit tree.

"I was in seclusion before, and I just learned that the Elders' Council of my sect has issued a disciple recruitment order. Lingmu Immortal Palace has many eyes and ears. I asked Brother Tong to come here to ask, do you know the whereabouts of Brother Pei who led an entire world to ascend?"

Tong Baichuan shook his head slightly, "Although the order of the Cloud Realm is gradually being lifted, it has not yet completely dissipated. The whereabouts of this cultivator are currently unknown."

"Fellow Daoist, how did your Highness determine that this Daoist Pei has the appearance of the 69th Heavenly Tribulation?"

"Isn't comprehending the Five Elements the level of sixty-nine heavenly tribulations?" Tong Baichuan said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Tong, tell me the number."

Xuan Yao raised his eyelids. Lingmu Immortal Palace has two major businesses that are very extensive. They are selling spiritual wood and selling information. Sometimes they also act as brokers and hold cross-regional auctions.

Tong Baichuan stretched out his five fingers and compared them, and Xuan Yao nodded.

"The true spirit of the Yunxiao Realm has not withered, and it is suspected that it has reincarnated into the mortal world."

"Before this, this world was occupied by a certain demon cultivator from the Demon Palace. Something unexpected happened in the world, and a local force called the Jinghe Chamber of Commerce started a small business in this world to help other cultivators reincarnate."

"Since it has been targeted by the demons and there are reincarnated creatures in the realm, the luck of this realm should have been exhausted. However, after the realm was opened, the vitality was abundant."

"It turned out that this cultivator unified all parties in the realm, excavated the spiritual soil and spiritual veins from the Five Elements Immortal Palace that descended from the realm, restored the vitality of this realm, and upgraded it to the highest level."

"So, Pei Tianlan, this cultivator, has a great connection with the True Spirits in this world."

"Is this cultivator walking on the path of merit?" Xuan Yao was a little surprised. This path is not an easy one to walk on. Nowadays, people walking on the path of merit in the fairy world are extremely rare and are almost extinct.

“I don’t know yet.”

Tong Baichuan shook his head, "What we know now is that this cultivator is likely to be proficient in several crafts, and is extremely cautious. He painstakingly hid behind the scenes for nearly ten thousand years, and only revealed his true identity at the end."

"By the way, Wanxiang Mountain has also issued a disciple recruitment order. As long as this cultivator enters the sect, he can be accepted as a personal disciple by the Hedao Patriarch immediately."

"However, I still think highly of your sect, which has a long history and a strong foundation. Once you enter, you will be able to broaden your horizons. In the future, you may be able to survive the sixty-nine heavenly tribulations. It all depends on the choice of this fellow Daoist Pei."

After Tong Baichuan left, Xuan Yao slowly stood up and walked out of the cave.

To be honest, there are many cultivators in Juntian Realm who are able to achieve the Dao, but few dare to take this step. Everyone wants the original spiritual objects that can protect them from disasters to increase the probability of success.

However, the spiritual objects that can protect people from disasters are rare in Juntian. Even for Juntian Pavilion, it may take an average of 20,000 years to obtain one, and their power cannot be guaranteed.

Moreover, some spiritual objects that protect against disasters also have corresponding attributes, and unsuitable attributes will have little effect.

There are two types of spiritual objects that can protect against disasters. One type can directly weaken the power of the disaster, and this type is applicable to everyone. The degree of weakening varies according to the type and quality of the spiritual object, and the maximum power can be weakened by 10%. It cannot be used in a stacked manner.

The other is to conceal a certain background of the cultivator and create an illusion of order in heaven and earth.

For example, a cultivator who had comprehended the Five Elements, the Dao of Sword, and the Dao of Thunder, obtained a Purple Marrow Thunder Mountain.

Then, after refining it into the body before the heavenly tribulation, one can hide the power of the thunder rules that one has comprehended, making the heavenly tribulation think that the thunder rules were released with the help of spiritual treasures, thus weakening the power of the heavenly tribulation from the source.

This kind of original thing is even rarer and is also the spiritual object that everyone wants most.

If one more innate rule is transformed into the foundation of the Tao, the potential for the future will be greater.

Although Pei Tianlan's true talent is unknown, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is capable of sixty-nine heavenly tribulations, considering that he is among the most powerful people in the world.

Such a cultivator is naturally the best to be accepted into the sect.

Otherwise, judging from the commotion this cultivator has caused in the Small Thousand World, his methods are so powerful that there might be one more enemy in the future when competing for the original spiritual objects.

It's really helpless to say, Juntian Pavilion and Haotian Realm have a deep relationship. Logically speaking, they can obtain the original spiritual objects from Haotian Realm.

But there are more Hedao holy places in Haotian Realm, and they are not enough, so naturally they will not allow Juntian Pavilion to extend its claws.

In addition, no holy land would think that there were too many original things. In many cases, the ancestors of each holy land would personally take action to compete for them.

Juntian Pavilion does not have the strength to go to Haotian Realm to compete for the original spiritual objects.

It would be a blessing if the people of Haotian Realm did not come down to rob the holy land.

…

Tianchen Mountain Cave Mansion.

Shen Lian practiced quietly.

Under the powerful induction of divine thoughts, the route of the magic power in his body was revealed. The two rules of yin and yang and the five elements that he had comprehended were constantly merging with the magic power in the process of its circulation.

In addition to improving the realm, the purpose of practicing in the Lianxu realm is to increase the degree of integration between the power of rules and magic power.

When the rules and mana have been integrated to about 30%, and the mana has been raised to the peak of the early stage of refining emptiness, you can start trying to advance to the middle stage of refining emptiness.

The cultivation methods of Taoism and body cultivation are similar. It is equivalent to integrating magic power and rules three times in the lower dantian, middle dantian and physical body.

At present, the degree of integration of his own magic power and rules is about 20%, but the magic power accumulated in his dantian is slower.

The medicinal power of the Zi Ling Xu Yun Pill penetrated into the lower dantian bit by bit. After refining each pill, Shen Lian would stop to practice Taoism for a while, and this cycle would repeat over and over again.

After completing the training, go to the Bodhi Cave to take on tasks and continue to earn extra labor fees.

…

In a blink of an eye, it was the 107th year in Juntian City.

Outside the Tianchen Mountain Cave.

"Friend Ji, Zhu Xuzhong is here to visit."

Inside the cave, Shen Lian opened the defensive spiritual barrier, and soon a cultivator wearing a scarlet robe and with a figure similar to Wu Dalang flew in.

This cultivator has an ordinary appearance, but he is strong and powerful, and a gleam of brilliance can occasionally be seen when his eyes open and close.

Zhu Xuzhong, a cultivator in the middle stage of the Refined Void Realm.

Oh, by the way, fifty years ago this cultivator was called Zhu Xuchu, and at that time he was still in the initial stage of refining emptiness.

Shen Lian could only sigh at the diversity of species in the fairy world, where there were people with all kinds of hobbies.

If a person in the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm were placed in other regions, he would definitely be considered a powerful person who could dominate a certain area, but in Juntian City, he is just an ordinary person.

There is no way. There are too many Void Refinement cultivators gathered in Juntian City from all directions, and the middle stage of Void Refinement is not very noticeable.

Zhu Xuzhong clasped his fists towards Shen Lian and glanced towards the alchemy room.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, have you not started refining pills recently?"

"The furnace exploded last time when I was refining the elixir, and I spent a lot of spirit stones to patch up the hole. Fellow Daoist Zhu is not unaware of the rules of the Bodhi Cave. I wanted to be loyal to Juntian, but Juntian took my contribution points."

In order to keep pace with other cultivators in Tianchen Mountain, Shen Lian would occasionally explode the furnace while refining pills, otherwise it would be too conspicuous if he always succeeded.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu is now a senior in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm. I can only refine sixth-order lower-grade elixirs. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help you, Fellow Daoist Zhu."

"Friend Ji, please stop making fun of me. In the eyes of Juntian Pavilion, a cultivator in the middle stage of Lianxu is nothing. Ten of me, Zhu Xuzhong, are not as good as a master of alchemy."

Zhu Xuzhong waved his hands. He hated himself for not being close to any of the skills. If he wanted to gain contribution points, he could only go out and complete dangerous tasks such as hunting and investigation for Juntian Pavilion. How could he be as comfortable as Fellow Daoist Ji who could just sit there and earn contributions.

"I came here this time to ask Fellow Daoist Ji to refine a spiritual elixir called Soul Essence Refining Pill. Has Fellow Daoist Ji ever refined it?"

"Soul Essence Breath-Resisting Pill."

Shen Lian pretended to hesitate. The main function of this elixir was to reduce the fluctuations of the soul. The user could stay in one place for a long time and remain silent.

Mainly used for sneak attacks.

"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Zhu, this pill is complicated to refine. I have a chance of having my furnace explode when refining pills for daily cultivation. If I rashly refine this unconventional elixir, not only will the success rate be very low, but if the furnace explodes, it will delay Fellow Daoist Zhu's important plan."

Shen Lian refused the idea of refining right away.

This kind of elixir is obviously used in a shady way, so it is inevitable that there will be some side effects, so it is better not to take it.

Zhu Xuzhong did not delay too much and left the cave with regret on his face.

The next day, another figure in green flashed outside the cave. This cultivator had a handsome appearance, with orchid fingers pinched together, and a delicate and gentle look. He was obviously a male cultivator, but he had a charming body.

"Friend Ji, you only sell the elixir for more than half a month every year, which makes me wait anxiously."

For more than a hundred years, as an alchemist, Shen Lian, in addition to making elixirs for Juntian Pavilion, has also hooked up with a group of virtual-refining cultivators near Tianchen Mountain.

He is an alchemist, and his ambition is to let the majority of fellow Taoists eat the elixirs he has left behind.

Therefore, every once in a while, I would set aside half a month as a trading day with my fellow Taoists.

There are too many Void-Refining cultivators gathered in Juntian City, and the consumption of elixirs used in cultivation is a huge number, so alchemists are quite popular here.

Not long after, two more cultivators in the early stage of the Void Refinement Realm appeared in Shen Lian's cave.

Shen Lian was not polite either. He waved his hand and three medicine bottles flew into the hands of the cultivators present. The three bottles were filled with inferior quality Purple Ling Xuyun Pills, five pills in each bottle.

One hundred and fifty top-grade spirit stones per bottle.

The value of this kind of elixir supplied for daily cultivation is not very high. The ones that are really expensive are the ones of superior quality, or those with stronger medicinal power and the effect of breaking through levels.

Fortunately, there was no cost. It was all saved by Shen Lian through his own skills when he was refining the pills.

"Friend Ji, we heard that the elixirs you handed over to Juntian Pavilion were of medium quality. You can't keep them all for yourself."

Shen Lian showed an embarrassment on his face, and finally took out a jade bottle from his arms.

"How about this elixir, my two fellow Taoists?" Yun Lingyan threw a coquettish glance at the other people and successfully took the bottle of elixir.

Shen Lian took a thousand top-grade spirit stones into his arms. To be honest, refining pills is faster than making spirit stones. There is no cost, only profit.

Over the past hundred years, he has earned more than 40,000 top-grade spirit stones here, which is equivalent to one-fifth of the Huang family's reserves.

Forty thousand in a hundred years, an average of only four hundred per year may not seem like much.

But this does not include the share of elixirs that Shen Lian consumed himself. The elixirs he consumed were of better quality than those he sold.

The big tree in Juntian Pavilion is so lush that I took a sip.

The elixirs that are truly valuable are those of rare, spiritual, regular and other quality categories.

He was refining elixirs for daily practice in Juntian City steadily in order to take on the task of refining rare types of elixirs.

Moreover, he has also found his target, a sixth-order low-grade elixir called "Three-Turn Returning Light Pill".

This elixir has a special effect. It is an elixir used to assist in practicing the first level of the death rule.

The monks who practice the rules of death will realize the mystery of these rules more when they are on the verge of death. Moreover, once they are seriously injured in a fight, they will instead stimulate stronger fighting power.

Practicing this method is a bit like dancing on the edge of a knife. You can’t be lucky every time, there will always be a time when it might break.

Therefore, in order to reduce this risk, the monks who comprehend the rules of death choose to use the rule elixir to comprehend the true meaning of death.

The reason why Shen Lian chose this pill was because he was carrying the You Shifang pendant.

After You Shifang's reincarnation, he comprehended the rules of life and death. This three-turn Huiguang Pill is just right for comprehending life and death.

Interestingly, this kind of pill recipe was not found in Shen Lian’s inheritance. It was said to be an improved pill recipe passed down from the Dan Domain of Haotian Realm.

It has only been a hundred years since he encountered such a good thing, which made him feel that he had made the right decision to come to Juntian City.

Moreover, Ji Wuxian's identity as an alchemist allowed him to roam openly in Juntian City and purchase various elixirs for his own alchemy.

Now, a lot of spiritual medicines have been planted in the small world that he carries with him.

After clearing out the elixirs that had been reserved for this period of time, Shen Lian hung a sign outside the cave that read "Practice in seclusion, do not disturb."

In order to avoid being noticed, he used to buy the main ingredients of Zi Ling Xu Yun Dan in Jun Tian City to cover up his tracks.

The identity of an alchemist is indeed higher than that of other craftsmen. In just a hundred years, he has met more than thirty alchemy cultivators in Juntian City.

There was no way around it. Some fellow Taoists were really enthusiastic and respectfully called him Master Ji Dan.

…

"Sixth-level low-grade Huiguang grass, a medicinal herb that is ten thousand years old, is hard to come by."

Looking through the detailed information in the task jade slip, Shen Lian became more and more satisfied.

This Huiguang grass grows in the ghost land, more than a hundred galaxies away from Juntian City, and the area is full of dangers.

Like Zhu Xu before, his way of obtaining contribution points was to take on such missions, which involved fighting desperately.

According to the mission briefing, a total of two plants of the main medicine Huiguangcao are provided, which means there are two chances to start refining the elixir.

The one seeking the elixir needs three Huiguang Pills.

After completing this alchemy task, you will receive one thousand contribution points.

The reason why no one accepted this mission was because the cost of failure was too high.

Taking into account the difficulty, time, value, etc. of picking Huiguang Grass, failure would require at least 15,000 top-grade spirit stones.

As both are sixth-grade lower-grade elixirs, the value of Zi Ling Xu Yun Dan and Hui Guang Dan is far superior.

This does not include the deducted contribution points. It is very likely that one will be busy saving money for hundreds of years, and a pot of elixir will bring him back to the past.

In comparison, more than a thousand contribution points are needed to refine ten furnaces of Purple Ling Xuyun Pills.

After packing up, Shen Lian flew out of the cave and headed for the Bodhi tree cave, ready to take on the Huiguang Pill mission that he had been planning for a long time.

As for which cultivator in Juntian Pavilion issued this alchemy task, people outside have no idea.

All the tasks diverted to Juntian City are centrally coordinated by the General Affairs Hall of Juntian Pavilion. The cultivators outside who want to get contribution points only need to complete the tasks honestly.

Bodhi Cave.

There were many monks coming and going, and the tasks they took on were also varied. The method used by Juntian Pavilion was indeed extraordinary.

Using a title that could be used to gain entry, countless cultivators became the minions of Juntian Pavilion.

"Do you want to take over Guangdan's mission?"

Shen Lian paid a visit to Wu Gang. The old man with white hair and a youthful face had eyes full of surprise.

"Xiaoji, are you sure?"

Hearing this cultivator's name, Shen Lian's mouth twitched.

People outside call him Master Ji Dan, what the hell is Little Ji.

Fortunately, this cultivator was kind enough to know not to tell Ji.

"Elder Wu, I have saved some money from refining the Purple Ling Pills for daily use over the years. You can give it a try. Refining these daily pills will not improve my alchemy skills much. Moreover, this pill comes with a recipe, which is rare."

Wu Gang looked at Shen Lian, then yawned boredly.

"Go, go, go and take the task yourself, don't disturb my sleep."

After Shen Lian left, Wu Gang actually fell asleep on the table. To him, he had seen too many cultivators, and he was accustomed to the outstanding and repressed ones. It was none of his business.

Shen Lian successfully received the Huiguang Pill mission, obtained the elixir and the corresponding pill recipe, and paid a deposit of three thousand top-grade spirit stones before returning to Tianchen Mountain.

After returning to the cave, he began to study the recipe of Huiguang Pill. His alchemy skills had long been upgraded to the sixth-grade upper level. He had inherited countless alchemy techniques and memories and was extremely familiar with the method.

However, this kind of pill recipe, which was not included in the inheritance, still needed to be studied carefully before refining. In addition, he also planned to demonstrate some of Ji Wuxian's alchemy techniques in the process of refining the pill.

Therefore, this needs to be carefully sorted out.

In this way, it took Shen Lian three years to comprehend the recipe of Huiguang Pill. During the process, he also started a furnace to refine a batch of Ziling Xuyun Pills. As luck would have it, this batch of pills produced a top-quality pill.

Five years later.

Shen Lian, who had been sitting in meditation for more than half a month, waved his hand and a heavy alchemy furnace with three legs and four ears flew out from his dantian.

This alchemy furnace is called Xuanshan Furnace. It is the Ji family’s inherited alchemy furnace and is of the middle grade of the sixth level.

Over the years, Shen Lian has been using this furnace to make elixirs.

After the Xuanshan furnace fell, the medicinal fragrance that permeated into the furnace spread, and the fragrance then filled the alchemy room.

Before opening the furnace, he took the fifth-level spiritual spring water to clean the furnace, and soaked his hands in the spring water. Shen Lian's expression became solemn and serious.

With a light touch on Dantian, a ball of red flame with gold edges instantly enveloped the alchemy furnace, and the temperature in the entire alchemy room suddenly rose.

After heating up the alchemy furnace, Shen Lian raised his hand, and his complicated medicine separation technique evolved into the shape of a phoenix. The auxiliary medicines turned into streams of light and were thrown into the alchemy furnace, transforming into balls of pure medicine powder or liquid.

Finally, the Huiguang Grass, which served as the main ingredient, flew into the alchemy furnace. Under the burning of the red-gold flame, it melted little by little into a glowing medicinal liquid.

…

"melt!"

Inside the cave, as Shen Lian made hand seals, the medicinal powder and liquid refined in the alchemy furnace began to merge.

"who!"

Just when the medicine was about to merge, Shen Lian was suddenly startled.

The divine consciousness rushed out of the spiritual restriction.

“Buzz!”

At the same time, a cloud of black smoke rose up from the furnace.

"You have crossed the line by spying on the alchemist's secret alchemy!"

…

"Don't blame me, fellow Daoist. I'll tell you the details after the elixir is ready..."

Outside the spiritual ban, a divine thought responded like a ripple, but in an instant, a burst of fire exploded in the alchemy room, and the alchemy furnace flew away, causing the spiritual ban in the alchemy room to flash with spiritual light.

In the chaos, more than half of the fusion liquid that had just emitted black smoke in the alchemy furnace disappeared in an instant.

Shen Lian, who was controlling the alchemy furnace, was instantly hit by the powerful recoil and fell on the spiritual ban. The furnace cover hit the back of his head with a bang.

“Ahem…”

After a long time, the alchemy room was in a mess, with a burning smell everywhere. Shen Lian walked out with black air coming out of his mouth and nose, his face ashen.

"Fellow Daoist, do you not trust my craftsmanship or my character?"

A cultivator in a white robe stood outside the cave with an embarrassed look on his face, looking at Shen Lian who was surrounded by black smoke.

"Master Ji Dan, please don't blame me. I am Zhan Chongdu. Huiguang Pill is extremely important to my young master's cultivation, so I am overstepping my authority."

"No more refining. Let's go to Guishanmen and talk to the elders about whose responsibility it is if this furnace of pills is destroyed."

Shen Lian waved his robe, turned around and walked towards the cave.

He noticed this Fellow Daoist Zhan as soon as he appeared. How could a cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm escape his perception?

Otherwise, why did he bathe and wash his hands and use Ji Wuxian's alchemy technique? Wasn't it just to have an extra witness?

Identity is something that needs to be maintained at all times and inadvertently.

Of course the furnace had to be blown up, otherwise how would Shen Lian put the other thousand-year-old elixir in his pocket.

One thousand contribution points are not enough to fill the gaps between one's teeth. If Master Ji doesn't eat some night grass, he will starve to death.

"Master Ji Dan, hey... Fellow Daoist Ji, I am Meng Lang, let's discuss this matter."

Zhan Chongdu followed behind into the cave and wanted to pull Shen Lian's robe.

"My friend, please respect yourself. I am not that kind of person."

Shen Lian rolled up his robe, but the anger on his face was still there.

"Master Ji, this is an apology for the offense. The Huiguang Pill is almost done. There is still one main ingredient, Master Ji, can you open another furnace? I believe that with Master Ji's skills, you will succeed."

Shen Lian glanced back.

Hey… the Five Elements Beast Essence that has broken through the bottleneck of the sixth stage! The robe that had just been rolled up fell down again, like a world in the sleeve, and rolled up a piece of colorful crystal that Zhan Chongdu took out into the sleeve.

"This won't happen again!"

"I am angry!"

…

The spiritual ban of the cave was opened again, and Zhan Chongdu stood alone outside the cave. This time he didn't dare to peek again. In case the furnace exploded again, it would not be easy to find the light grass again in a short time.

"Could it be that this cultivator has also comprehended the Way of the Soul?"

Zhan Chongdu muttered in his heart, he was a veteran cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm, yet he was discovered.

In the newly renovated alchemy room in the cave, Shen Lian pretended to rest for more than half a month, then he started the fire and warmed up the furnace again, and put the liquid medicine that he had collected before into the furnace to refine it again.

This time he activated a double formation and also sent out a wisp of his divine consciousness to investigate the outside world.

A few months later.

The cave was filled with the aroma of medicine. Shen Lian, who was sitting cross-legged outside the alchemy furnace, pointed at the furnace cover from a distance. Four black elixirs with three elixir patterns on their surfaces flew out, surrounded by dim light and a strange aura.

After a moment, he put away the spiritual ban and formation.

"I've been waiting for a long time, fellow Taoist."

After the restrictions in the cave were removed, Zhan Chongdu rushed in at once. Looking at the Huiguang Pill floating above the alchemy furnace, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

"Four?"

This pill has been refined by someone in Juntian Pavilion before, but even if it is refined by a sixth-level mid-level alchemist, the probability of a successful pill is not high.

The main reason is that this pill contains too strong aura of death, and the pill room can easily be infected during the refining process, affecting the alchemist's spiritual control.

At this moment, Zhan Chongdu felt a faint aura of death lingering around Shen Lian.

"Hey, fellow Daoist, your hand!"

Seeing that Zhan Chongdu wanted to grab the elixir, Shen Lian immediately used the elixir-collecting technique that Ji Wuxian often used and collected all four elixirs.

"I need to go to the Bodhi Cave to hand in this pill for a mission, so I can't give it to you, my friend."

"Master Ji is cautious and will do what he wants." Zhan Chongdu nodded awkwardly, "Master Ji's alchemy skills are impressive."

It is easy to find a sixth-level alchemist who can refine sixth-level elixirs for daily practice, but it is difficult to find an alchemist who can refine unconventional elixirs.

Master Ji Dan's value has greatly increased.

After receiving the Huiguang Pill, Zhan Chongdu followed Shen Lian all the way to the Bodhi Cave, and the two began to communicate on the way.

"Master Ji Dan has been in Juntian City for more than a hundred years. I wonder where the fairyland is?"

"My home is too far away from Juntian City. It's too hard to recall the past, so I'd rather not mention it." Shen Lian said indifferently.

After going to the Bodhi Cave to hand over the elixir and get his deposit back, Shen Lian said goodbye to Zhan Chongdu and returned to his cave.

"Five Elements Beast Essence, not bad, can be used as a spiritual item for physical cultivation."

Taking out the spiritual object that Zhan Chongdu had given as an apology, Shen Lian began to ponder. Does this guy know that I am a physical cultivator, or is it just a coincidence that he has this thing in his hand?

"Not bad. I got a 10,000-year-old Huiguang grass for free. Also, the news of refining this pill will surely spread soon. Then I will be able to receive other special types of elixirs."

"Once you have a good reputation, you can quickly accumulate contribution points and get a leather body armor from Juntian Pavilion."

"Don't you want Pei Tianlan to join Juntian Pavilion? Don't let me join quietly."

In the cave, Shen Lian collected the crystal stone that contained a shadowy strange beast.

The three methods of cultivation must go hand in hand. By then, maybe something unexpected will happen. It can be used as a spiritual item for physical cultivation to reach the middle stage of the sixth level. Even if it is not used, it can be used as an ordinary spiritual item for physical cultivation.

It's always a good idea to prepare more spiritual items.

Shen Lian leisurely made himself a cup of spiritual tea and began to eliminate the death energy generated by alchemy. This death energy had little effect on him and would only last for a month or two.

About a year after he refined the Third-Turn Huiguang Pill, Shen Lian received a new order. It was not a mission from Juntian Pavilion, but a cultivator in Juntian City who came to him because of his reputation.

The elixir being refined is a magical elixir called the Water and Fire Mysterious Rong Pill, the main function of this elixir is to promote the fusion of the two rules of water and fire.

Don't look at Shen Lian's mastery of the five elements and having no worries at all. He just hasn't experienced the hardships that most of the Void Refining cultivators have experienced.

After completing the five elements, many Void Refining cultivators choose two or three rules within the five elements to comprehend and then integrate them. This is the normal path of practice for most cultivators.

Shen Lian never turned away anyone who came to ask for elixirs.

As long as you give a lot, you can even give away happy pills.

Of course, the happiness of the Void Refining cultivators is a little more advanced, called the Nine-Turn Fusion Bliss Pill, which can touch the fusion of the spirit and soul.

Very smooth.

…

Once the sign is put out, the reputation will naturally come.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Lian had been hiding in Juntian City for five hundred years.

Inside the cave, he sat cross-legged and quietly practiced the Five Qis Converging to the Origin Technique. In the process, he transformed the medicinal power into the five elements of magic power.

He spent most of the past five hundred years refining pills, so his realm was not improved much.

As for the harvest.

In the portable world.

Amid the interweaving of spiritual energy, the rolling hills are covered with lush vegetation, and a winding river runs across the center of the realm.

In the river, black fish were spitting bubbles, and some of their aura had already surpassed the Jindan level.

On both sides of the river, several long-legged fish monsters were busy turning the soil for the elixir.

Each high-level spiritual medicine occupies a pond or lives in a valley, each with its own spiritual energy range.

In the void, wisps of spiritual energy intertwined, emitting a faint purple light, and formed into long rivers of spiritual energy that fell to different places, nourishing the sixth-level spiritual medicines everywhere.

Near the river, a sixth-grade mid-quality Nine-Crown Cloud Ganoderma was swaying. The medicinal age of the medicine reached 14,000 years, and it was the main ingredient for refining the Nine-Revolution Tianyang Pill, which could break through the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm.

At this time, the number of sixth-level spiritual medicines growing in the world has reached 173, and the number of fifth-level and fourth-level auxiliary medicines has exceeded 1,000, and the third-level and lower medicines are everywhere.

In the realm with a wisp of innate purple spirit, the spiritual energy nourished by it has the ability to accelerate the accumulation of medicinal power.

In addition, Shen Lian would occasionally use the resources he had received to cultivate some spiritual liquids that would accelerate the accumulation of medicinal power.

Near the river, there stood a crooked hall. Inside the hall, three little fellows transformed into human forms, each sitting cross-legged on a suspended compass, looking as if they were practicing.

Above the three little guys, jade boxes were flying back and forth, each of which was sealed with a spiritual ban, and the type and quality of the spiritual pill sealed in the box were marked on it.

The realms of the three little guys have all reached the fifth level. Dahei also survived the heavenly tribulation a hundred years ago. For this reason, Shen Lian specially ran far away to find a magical medicine, which allowed Dahei to survive the heavenly tribulation.

Looking around, the number of jade boxes flying back and forth exceeded three hundred.

These were all taken out of the alchemy furnace bit by bit by Shen Lian through his own efforts. The types covered included daily practice, recovery of mana, spirit, comprehension of rules and so on.

Without spending a single spiritual herb, I was able to save up so many sixth-level spiritual pills, which doubled my happiness.

…

Outside Juntian City.

A middle-aged monk who looked a little old and dusty jumped off a huge ship and looked at the huge Juntian City from afar, his eyes full of shock.

After a moment of shock, the cultivator entered Juntian City and wandered around for a few days before arriving outside the Fairy Bodhi Tree.

"Pei Tianlan from Yunxiao Realm has come here to accept the order and is willing to join Juntian Pavilion!"
