Purple Essence Pill!
Such a precious thing, are you just going to give it to him like that?
Master Wuji was extremely excited.
He started cultivating immortality at the age of eight, and now he has only accumulated less than fifty spirit stones in his storage bag.
However, this is quite common among low-level rogue cultivators in the cultivation world of the Divine Martial Kingdom, where cultivation resources are scarce.
Next, Lu Xuan exchanged pleasantries with the old Taoist priest.
From the conversation, it was learned that this old Taoist priest was a servant of the Ye family, the only family in Daye City that cultivated immortality, when he was young.
Later, his talent for cultivating four spiritual roots was discovered, and he stumbled along the way to reach the peak of the late stage of Qi Refining.
Qi Refining Level 9?
As expected, the cultivators here are at most at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Only Lu Xuan, by cultivating the Ancient True Essence Technique, was able to reach the true peak of Qi Refining.
"Senior Lu, are you the legendary Foundation Establishment Grand Cultivator?"
Foundation Establishment cultivator?
Lu Xuan chuckled softly upon hearing this and nodded in agreement.
The old Taoist priest was overjoyed upon seeing Lu Xuan's reply:
"To be honest, senior, my two disciples are both exceptionally talented. I hope you can be lenient and accept them as your disciples. Otherwise, after I pass away, they will be left unattended and may be devoured by the Rat King of Daye Mountain!"
"oh?"
The Rat King?
What is this thing?
The old Taoist explained:
"Our Huangfengling is also part of Daye Mountain, which spans thousands of miles. The various mountain ranges are filled with peaks and ridges, and the spiritual energy is extraordinary. The overlord of Daye Mountain is a black rat demon that has become a demon, and it is probably at the peak of the late stage of Qi Refining."
Then, Lu Xuan learned from the old Taoist priest:
This black rat demon was actually about the same age as the old Taoist priest.
However, the lifespan of a rat demon is several times longer than that of a cultivator.
Now, the old Taoist priest is almost ready to pass away.
However, this black rat demon was still young and strong, and was also an old and mortal enemy.
The old Taoist priest used to be able to hold his own against this black rat demon.
The old Taoist's cultivation has declined considerably, and he hasn't even dared to leave the Taoist temple in recent years.
He worried that his two apprentices would lose their lives.
"Is that so?" Lu Xuan said.
"Then the Purple Essence Pill I gave you can increase your lifespan by ten years, right?"
"Senior Lu, you're right, but I feel I can't break through to the Foundation Establishment realm. Living a few more years would be a waste of this precious pill. It's better to leave it for my disciple, and then try to exchange it for one or two Foundation Establishment Pills later. We cultivators, without reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, are ultimately just mayflies in the vast ocean, born in the morning and dying in the evening..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan's heart stirred, and his state of mind suddenly experienced a breakthrough.
It seems that although this old Taoist priest is not highly skilled, he still has his own understanding and insights into the path of immortality, and he is very persistent in it.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan is out of Foundation Establishment Pills now, and besides, given the old Taoist's age and aptitude, it's impossible for him to achieve Foundation Establishment again.
Since they had only met by chance, Lu Xuan couldn't possibly go to great lengths to help the other party.
"You two come here, let Senior Lu take a look at your aptitudes and spiritual roots, and see if they can catch his eye." The old Taoist called over two handsome young Taoist disciples.
"Let me see." Lu Xuan pointed with one hand, and two beams of light fell into the spiritual platforms on the foreheads of the two Daoist boys.
"Tsk tsk, they are actually two cultivators with dual spiritual roots. They are top-tier talents even in the cultivation world. It's a pity that I don't have any plans to take on disciples yet, but I can let them try their luck at the nearby major immortal sects."
After saying that, Lu Xuan took out two blank jade slips from his storage bag.
After inscribing his Core Formation realm aura and mana imprint on it, he handed it to the two Daoist boys in front of him, saying, "You can try to go to the nearby Foundation Establishment sects in the future. After showing this token, I believe they will look at you with new eyes and accept you as disciples. Perhaps you can also reach Foundation Establishment in the future."
"Thank you so much, Senior Lu." The old Taoist priest beside him was so moved that he knelt down on the ground with a thud.
Upon seeing this, the two young Taoist disciples beside him also knelt down before Lu Xuan.
"Why don't you thank Senior Lu for his great kindness and virtue? This old Taoist priest could never fulfill his wish in his entire life, but I hope you can help me realize it. In the future, when you return to my Wuji Temple, you will bring glory to my family!"
"Yes, Master. We are deeply grateful for Immortal Lu's great kindness; we will never forget it!"
Seeing this, Lu Xuan sighed slightly. With a wave of his hand, the three of them were lifted up by his magic. "You don't need to do this. Where is that black rat demon? I can get rid of it for you. After I finish this, I will go to Daye City."
Lu Xuan planned to go to Daye City first to investigate the situation of the cultivation world in the Divine Martial Kingdom, and then find a master craftsman to forge a high-grade magic weapon flying sword.
Another task is to find the whereabouts of Moxi and Nanlingzi's bodies.
Lu Xuanqing clearly remembered that he fell into the ground with them that day, but when he woke up, there was no trace of Mo Xi.
Could it be that this demonic soul took the opportunity to escape with Nan Lingzi's body?
It's not impossible.
At this moment, the old Taoist led the way, and Lu Xuan rode his sword directly towards the Black Rat Demon's territory.
"This is the place, Senior Lu."
After flying thirty to fifty miles away from Wuji Temple.
The two stopped in front of a low valley.
The valley is shaped like a pocket with a narrow entrance.
The mountains on both sides are steep and towering.
Lu Xuan looked over.
Sure enough, demonic energy was seeping out of the valley before them.
"Spiritual Qi Observation Technique!"
Lu Xuan's eyes emitted a faint golden light, and he discovered that there were actually two monsters inside!
They are all at the late stage of Qi Refining.
But the old Taoist said there was only one rat demon. How could that be?
