The deep cave in the mountain is dark, damp and cold, but not pitch black.
Along the way, the tentacle-like vines were covered with scarlet flower buds, emitting a faint light that illuminated the entire cave.
The flower bud swayed without wind, and a drop of blood slid down from the end of the petal.
The blood drop fell from a height of sixty to seventy feet, and gently smashed into the cheek of a young man.
Ji Yu woke up suddenly, and the fragmented memories came flooding into his mind.
I am Xu Kehong, with the Taoist name Jingyuan. When my life span was about to end, I was reborn into the body of my bloodline's descendant.
Now, I am Ji Yu! No, no!
I am Ji Yu, and my father has possessed me! I want to live, I can't die! My mother is buried in the countryside, not in the ancestral temple, I want to move her grave and repair it, I want to become an immortal! A look of painful struggle flashed across Ji Yu's eyes.
However, before he could react, a sinister laugh came from him, "Something is wrong with you. You woke up so soon?"
"The soul is so powerful, and it has experienced so much. Haha..."
"Let me guess, are you some great man who has retained his wisdom and reincarnated, or are you some old monster who is lingering on and has taken over someone else's body?"
Ji Yu looked up in astonishment and saw a strange creature growing on the top of the cave.
Half man, half plant, its lower body is deeply embedded in the soil, forming vine-like tentacles.
The upper body was that of an old man, his body was like a dead tree, his hair was sparse and white, his face was shrunken, his eyes were empty and blind, he looked extremely hideous and scary, there was a faint light in the two eye sockets.
"Who are you and what do you want?!"
Ji Yu naturally sensed something was wrong and tried to delay the time as much as possible.
He glanced around and found that he seemed to be in an extremely large alchemy cauldron.
Li Qinglin and Ming Xiang Du Weng were in a coma, their life or death was unknown, and their breath was almost gone.
Only a thin layer of human skin remained of the old Taoist Ji Ze's body, which was wrinkled in the furnace, as if all the blood and flesh had been squeezed out.
Their magic weapon storage bags were untied one after another and locked deep into the stone wall by tentacles.
Everyone took off their clothes and were naked.
"Oh no? It seems like I'm going to be made into a human pill?"
Seeing this, Ji Yu's heart suddenly sank! Qu Wangliang smiled faintly, "I have practiced martial arts for many years. In order to find a way to break through the realm and prolong my life, I have been trapped here for more than a hundred years. I have studied the methods of the ancient gods of the earth and mountains, and I am just one step away from success."
Qu Wangliang saw Ji Yu's thoughts, but he didn't care at all and explained calmly,
"But we are still short of a few medicinal herbs. Fortunately, you cultivators have arrived. They are indeed top-quality main herbs. This is truly a godsend..."
These immortal cultivators have already reached the late stage of Qi training, and naturally have long since practiced fasting and do not eat grains, so there is no filth.
There was no need to even clean it, it was spotless and slippery enough to be used directly for alchemy! Qu Wangliang did not recognize that the unconscious cultivator at the eighth level of Qi training on the other side was Li Qinglin.
On the one hand, Li Qinglin slightly modified his facial muscles, facial features and even height, which are very different from before.
Secondly, as he transformed, he lost his martial arts realm, and his natural aura changed greatly, almost severing the connection with his state before the transformation at the causal level.
Unless Li Qinglin was willing, Qu Wangliang would not be able to identify him at all.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yu's face changed, and he said sternly, "Do you know that I am a descendant of the Fusheng Xu family from the Three Mountains of Qingshitan? If you harm me, the elders of the clan will definitely seek revenge on you afterwards!"
When Qu Wangliang heard this, he looked as if he had heard something extremely funny in the world, with a face full of joking.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Once you go down, the three mountains of Qingshitan and even the Taoist Jialing will come down to find you soon."
What? Ji Yu was horrified and wanted to ask more questions, but he saw that Qu Wangliang didn't want to say anything more. With a loud bang, the lid of the tripod was tightly closed.
The entire alchemy furnace suddenly fell into darkness.
Waves of rich fragrance filled the entire cave.
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter follow one's order, and it will become solid when you reach Kun Palace. There is no need to study the Yixing hexagram qi, there is a Kun Qian in your body..."
Qu Wangliang's expression gradually became crazy, he recited unknown lost scriptures, and his tentacles danced excitedly in the air.
He dragged out all kinds of rare treasures from the ground.
Millennium steatite, red silk dragon wood, seven-cloud lotus...
There is also a second-level medium-quality spiritual plant, the Black Jade Divine Lotus. The lotus seeds are each the size of a pigeon egg, and are translucent black, crystal clear, and emit rays of black light. The fragrance directly rushes into people's internal organs, making the smell of it make people feel ecstatic.
Inside the alchemy cauldron, Ji Yuan smelled the overwhelming medicinal aroma and suddenly thought of something, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The skin beneath his body cracked quietly, and blood flowed into runes, forming a somewhat broken and swaying Hundred-Eyed Yin Shu Rune.
With his current magical powers, he is actually unable to fully control the Hundred-Eyed Yinshu Talisman.
But if he had these medicine-refining auxiliary materials from Qu Wangliang, Ji Yu was confident that he could break through to perfection in Qi training in one go and unleash 30% to 40% of the power of the Hundred-Eyed Yin-Phase Talisman.

By then, not to mention counterattacking from desperate situations, you can also escape alive!
Outside, Qu Wangliang paused.
"You seem to want to eat my baby?"
Qu Wangliang's cold voice was heard, and then a tentacle pierced into Ji Yu's arms with a "pop". The moment it was pulled out, blood gushed out.
Ji Yu's face turned pale as he felt the sharp pain! "You cultivators have sacrificed warriors as slaves for generations.
Now, I want to refine immortality into medicine, return to my native land, and truly perfect my martial arts - the Lord of the Netherworld!"
Phew!
Phew!
Blood splattered, and tentacles pierced Ji Yu's legs and chest! Blood surged, and rolling essence escaped.
The spiritual energy dissipated and almost condensed into rain.
When Qu Wangliang noticed this, his face turned extremely red and his body trembled, as if he would faint at the next moment.
Ji Yu gritted his teeth, aware of the gradual slip away of life, but he kept his mind stable and was still looking for an opportunity.
At that moment, he caught a glimpse of Han Fei who was unconscious beside him.
Han Fei seemed to be unconscious and had no breath at all.
But right under my eyes, the pair of beads would turn and roll from time to time.
It was obvious that he was using some secret method to deceive the world and pretend to be dead! Seeing this, Ji Yu had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat and wanted to curse loudly in his heart.
Okay, okay, we are both imprisoned and forced to make medicine.
I'm getting stabbed here, and you're pretending to be dead and peaceful, listening to the fun?
As all kinds of natural treasures were put into the alchemy cauldron.
Suddenly, there was a bright light, a fragrant smell, and a glow that even the lid of the cauldron could not suppress.
"Put in the fire to cook the essence of heaven and earth, open the furnace to bathe in the radiance of the clouds..."
Qu Wangliang immediately began to light the fire to refine the medicine, drawing out the "Netherworld Evil Fire" from the ground. A deep ghost light flickered and jumped under the cauldron.
