Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points.

They looked at the messy cave and knew it was no longer safe.

"We have to leave here as soon as possible." Luo Chen said.

Qingshuang nodded. She knew that Luo Chen was right. The temptation of the seven-colored spirit beads was too great. They had to leave this place as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if other practitioners target you, it will be really troublesome.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Outside Baixiang City, a man and a woman, dressed in tattered robes with a little dust on their faces, were walking silently towards the huge city with their heads down.

These two people are naturally Luo Chen who got the seven-colored spirit beads and his confidant Qing Shuang.

"Who are you two?"

"What are you doing in my White Elephant City?"

The soldier guarding the city looked at the two people in front of him and asked with his eyes slightly narrowed.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that at this moment, they had to remain calm and not cause unnecessary trouble.

"We are travelers from afar. We heard that Baixiang City is prosperous, so we came here to see it for ourselves." Luo Chen replied calmly.

The soldier looked them up and down, as if trying to judge the truth of their words.

Finally, he nodded and signaled that they could go into the city.

"Go in, but remember, no illegal activities are allowed in Baixiang City, otherwise you will bear the consequences yourself."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other again, nodded slightly, and then slowly walked into the prosperous city.

The Baixiang City was bustling with people, and there were shops lining both sides of the street, with all kinds of hawking sounds heard everywhere.

They walked through the crowd and came to an inn that looked quite quiet.

"My two guests, what can I order?" The proprietress of the inn came up and asked with a smile.

"Give us two upper rooms. Also, if it's convenient, we would like to find out some information." Luo Chen replied.

The proprietress nodded and motioned for them to follow her upstairs.

After arranging the room, she returned to the counter, followed by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

"What news do you want to know?" asked the proprietress curiously.

"We heard that there is an expert in Baixiang City who is good at refining various elixirs. I wonder if you can tell us where he lives?" Qingshuang asked cautiously.

After hearing this, the proprietress showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. She looked around and then lowered her voice and said, "You should be talking about the Dan Saint Chen Lao. His residence is not a secret, but it is not easy to see him."

"The old man has a strange temper, not just anyone can see him."

After hearing this, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, but they still politely thanked the proprietress.

They knew that if they wanted to meet this Alchemy Saint, Old Chen, it would probably take some effort.

After resting for a night in the inn, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang decided to walk around the city and find out more about the Alchemy Saint Chen Lao.

They came to the city's market, which was crowded with people and various stalls were filled with a wide variety of goods.

"Come and have a look! These are the finest spiritual herbs that can help practitioners improve their cultivation!" a stall owner shouted.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stopped, they were quite interested in these spiritual herbs.

After some bargaining, they bought several spiritual herbs that looked to be of good quality.

At this moment, a ragged old man suddenly appeared in front of them, staring at the spiritual herb in Luo Chen's hand with his sharp eyes.

“Young man, the spiritual herb in your hand is good, but if you don’t know how to use it, it would be a waste of resources.” The old man said in a hoarse voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were stunned. They didn't expect anyone to take the initiative to talk to them.

Luo Chen responded politely: "The old gentleman seems to have studied this very well, could you enlighten me?"

The old man smiled and said, "I do know a thing or two, but I have a condition."

"What conditions?" Qingshuang asked curiously.

"I need some rare materials to refine pills. If you can help me find them, I will tell you how to use the spiritual herbs." said the old man.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that this might be an opportunity.

So they agreed to the old man's request and agreed to meet again in three days.

In the next few days, Luo Chen and Qingshuang began to search for the materials needed by the old man inside and outside Baixiang City.

After going through untold hardships, they finally collected all the items within the agreed time.

Three days later, they arrived at the old man's residence as promised.

When the old man saw the materials they brought, a glimmer of approval appeared in his eyes.

"Yes, you really have a good heart." said the old man.

Afterwards, the old man began to teach Luo Chen and Qing Shuang how to use spiritual herbs and told them some tips on cultivation.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang listened with great interest and benefited a lot.

Under the old man's guidance, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's cultivation improved significantly again.

Their gratitude to the old man was beyond words.

"Old sir, how should I address you?" Luo Chen asked respectfully.

The old man smiled and said, "I am just an alchemist who lives in seclusion here. You can call me Old Chen."

After hearing this, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were shocked. It turned out that the plain-looking old man in front of them was actually the Alchemy Saint Chen they had been looking for!
"Mr. Chen, we have a favor to ask of you." Qingshuang said courageously.

Mr. Chen nodded and motioned for her to continue.

"We hope you can help us refine a pill that can help us break through the bottleneck." Qingshuang said.

After hearing this, Elder Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I can help you refine it, but this kind of elixir requires seven-colored spirit beads as one of the main ingredients. Do you have any?"

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang smiled at each other. They didn't expect things to be so coincidental.

They took out the colorful spirit beads from their arms and handed them to Mr. Chen.

Old Chen took the colorful spirit beads, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that these two young people actually possessed the legendary treasure.

"Okay, I promise you, you can come and get the elixir in three days."

Mr. Chen said.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang thanked Mr. Chen again and left his residence.

They knew that these three days would be precious time for them to practice.

Three days later, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang arrived at Mr. Chen's residence as promised.

Old Chen had already refined the pills, and he handed them two pills that were emitting a faint glow.

"These two pills are called 'Breakthrough Pills'. After taking them, your cultivation will be greatly improved. But remember that you must be in a safe place when taking the pills, because there will be a strong spiritual energy fluctuation when breaking through the bottleneck."

Mr. Chen warned.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang took the pill and thanked Chen Lao again. They knew that with this realm-breaking pill, they were one step closer to a higher realm of cultivation.

After finding a secluded place near Old Chen's residence, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang began to take the realm-breaking pills.

As the elixir melted, a powerful force surged in their bodies and they felt their cultivation levels improving rapidly.

After a period of hard training, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang finally succeeded in breaking through the bottleneck, and their cultivation reached a new level.

They opened their eyes, filled with joy and gratitude.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen. We will never forget your help."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang said in unison.

Old Chen smiled and nodded, then turned around and went back to his residence.

White Elephant City.

In a courtyard rented by Luo Chen.

At this time, Luo Chen was sitting quietly under a pavilion.

Luo Chen gently put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes passing through the flowers and trees in the courtyard, and looking up at the distant sky.

He was thinking about his next plan in his mind. Although things in White Elephant City went smoothly, their journey was far from over.

Qingshuang was in another corner of the courtyard, carefully taking care of the newly acquired spiritual herbs. She seemed particularly concerned about their growth.

Just then, a man in gorgeous clothes walked into the courtyard, followed by several followers.

The man had a handsome face, but there was a hint of arrogance between his brows. He looked around and his eyes finally fell on Luo Chen.

"Are you Luo Chen?" the man asked, with unquestionable majesty in his voice.

Luo Chen slowly stood up and responded politely: "It is me, who are you?"

"I am the son of the mayor of Baixiang City. My name is Bai Yifeng." The man said lightly, with a hint of pride in his tone.

Luo Chen's heart trembled. He had heard of Bai Yifeng's name and knew that this city lord's son not only had a prominent status, but also had extraordinary cultivation.

He didn't understand why Bai Yifeng came to visit suddenly, but he still remained polite: "It turns out to be Mr. Bai, what can I do for you?"

Bai Yifeng smiled slightly and said, "I heard that you and Miss Qingshuang are looking for a pill to break through the bottleneck. It happens that I have a magic pill called 'Tianyuan Pill' in my hand, which can help you further improve your cultivation."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that Tianyuan Pill was an extremely precious elixir that could help practitioners greatly improve their cultivation in a short period of time, but this kind of elixir was extremely rare. They didn't expect that Bai Yifeng would be willing to provide it.

"Mr. Bai, this Tianyuan Pill is so precious that we have no way to repay you." Luo Chen said cautiously.

Bai Yifeng waved his hand and said, "I don't need your repayment, I just hope you can do me a small favor."

"What help?" Qingshuang asked curiously.

"I need you to go to Black Wind Ridge outside Baixiang City and help me retrieve something." Bai Yifeng said.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were shocked. Black Wind Ridge was a dangerous place near Baixiang City. There were not only powerful monsters but also various unknown dangers. But the temptation of Tianyuan Pill was too great for them to refuse easily.

"Okay, we promise you." Luo Chen finally made up his mind.

Bai Yifeng nodded with satisfaction, took out a map from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen: "This is the map leading to Black Wind Ridge, you can proceed according to the markings on it. Remember, you must be careful."

Luo Chen took the map and nodded solemnly: "We will do our best."

Bai Yifeng turned and left, leaving behind a mysterious smile.

After several days of preparation, Luo Chen and Qingshuang embarked on their journey to Black Wind Ridge.

Following the instructions on the map, they arrived at the entrance of Black Wind Ridge.

At the entrance, the wind was howling, as if countless wronged souls were wailing inside.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang took a deep breath and stepped into this mysterious and dangerous area.

They moved forward cautiously, always alert to the movements around them.

Suddenly, a huge monster jumped out from the bushes and attacked them.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang reacted quickly and engaged in a fierce battle with the monster.

After a hard battle, they finally repelled the monster.

But this battle also made them realize that the danger of Black Wind Ridge was far beyond their imagination.

As they continued to move forward, they encountered various challenges, some were ferocious monsters, and some were strange traps.

Finally, after several days of arduous journey, they arrived at the location marked on the map.

There, they found an ancient altar with a bead emitting a faint light in the center.

"This should be what Bai Yifeng wanted us to retrieve." Luo Chen said.

Qingshuang nodded and was about to step forward to take the beads when suddenly, the ground around the altar began to shake. A powerful force surged out from the ground, trapping them in place.

"No, there's an ambush!"

Luo Chen shouted loudly, and the two of them quickly used their true energy to prepare for unknown dangers.

Just then, a figure walked out of the darkness. It was Bai Yifeng.

He had a smug smile on his face, and it was obvious that all this was arranged by him.

"You really didn't let me down and came here successfully." Bai Yifeng said.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a sinking feeling in their hearts as they realized that they were being used by Bai Yifeng.

But at this point, they were more concerned about how to get out.

"Bai Yifeng, what exactly do you want?" Luo Chen asked in a deep voice.

Bai Yifeng smiled slightly and said, "What I wanted from the beginning was the elixir made from the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl, but unfortunately, the elixir was eaten by the two of you."

"In this case, I can only use you two as materials to refine a new pill to help me practice!"

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were furious when they heard this. They didn't expect that they would fall into the trap carefully designed by Bai Yifeng.

However, they also knew that now was not the time to be angry, but to calm down and look for a chance to escape.

"Bai Yifeng, you are so despicable!"

Qingshuang shouted angrily, and at the same time she secretly winked at Luo Chen, indicating that he should prepare to join forces to break out.

Bai Yifeng didn't seem to care about their anger. He just said calmly: "Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. You are just two unknown people. It is your honor to dedicate your lives to my practice."

Luo Chen clenched his fists. He knew he had to stay calm and not let his emotions affect his judgment.

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Bai Yifeng, since you have already set up this situation, you must have made all the necessary preparations, but do you really think we have no power to resist?"

Bai Yifeng laughed loudly, as if he had heard something funny: "Resist? You can try it, but I can give you a chance. If you can withstand my attack and not fall, I will let you live."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other and did not believe what this person said.

The two quickly adjusted their breathing and mobilized their spiritual power to the maximum, preparing for the upcoming attack. (End of this chapter)
