Fire Virtue Immortal Clan

Chapter 65 Pill Cauldron Sect (Seeking first subscription!)

The Dan Ding Sect is a cultivation sect with a total of six Foundation Establishment cultivators. The sect leader's cultivation level is as high as the late Foundation Establishment stage, and he is also a second-tier high-grade alchemist.

Apart from the sect leader of Dan Ding Sect, who is a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, the other five Foundation Establishment cultivators of Dan Ding Sect include two in the mid-stage and three in the early-stage.

Lu Wenxing was a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Although he only had the cultivation level of the early Foundation Establishment stage, he was still highly regarded by the Dan Ding Sect after arriving at the sect, and they sent an elder with the early Foundation Establishment stage to receive him.

The elder sent by the Dan Ding Sect, who was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, was named Yang Chongyu. He had broken through to the early stage of Foundation Establishment several years ago, but due to his limited aptitude, his cultivation level remained at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

"I am Lu Wenxing from the Lu family of Chiyan Mountain. Greetings, Elder Yang!" Lu Wenxing said with a smile.

The six Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Dan Ding Sect were all quite famous. Lu Wenxing had made preparations before coming to the Dan Ding Sect. After seeing Yang Chongyu, he recognized him.

"I was fortunate to hear that Fellow Daoist Lu recently broke through to the Foundation Establishment realm. However, I was too busy with sect affairs to attend to my congratulations. Please forgive me!"

Yang Chongyu smiled apologetically and asked, "May I ask what brings Fellow Daoist Lu here today?"

Yang Chongyu's attitude towards Lu Wenxing was not exactly cold; he simply treated Lu Wenxing as a newly acquainted Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"I recently obtained three Earth Origin Grasses by chance, but my Lu family is unable to refine them into Earth Origin Pills. Therefore, I would like to ask your sect's alchemists for help in refining them."

Lu Wenxing chuckled and took the three Earth Origin Grasses out of his storage bag.

These three plants of *Gnaphalium affine* were just picked recently, and their medicinal properties have not diminished at all; they look quite appealing.

Yang Chongyu was also an alchemist, but he was not a second-level alchemist. However, when he saw the three Earth Origin Grasses that Lu Wenxing took out, a look of joy appeared on his face.

The materials used to refine pills that help cultivators break through to higher realms are extremely rare, and the Earth Element Grass is no exception.

Although Yang Chongyu is a Foundation Establishment Elder of the Dan Ding Sect, his status is the lowest among the six Foundation Establishment Elders of the Dan Ding Sect.

The three Earth Element Grasses that Lu Wenxing took out were quite tempting to Yang Chongyu. If he agreed to Lu Wenxing's request, he could also make a small profit.

“I can refine the Earth Origin Pill. You can collect the materials for refining the Earth Origin Pill later. After I refine the Earth Origin Pill, we will split the final pill equally. What do you think?” Yang Chongyu said quickly.

"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Yang. I have no objection!" Lu Wenxing said.

He wasn't sure how good Yang Chongyu's alchemy skills were, but since Yang Chongyu was confident in refining the Earth Origin Pill, his alchemy skills shouldn't be too bad.

After asking Yang Chongyu about the other materials needed to refine the Earth Origin Pill, Lu Wenxing handed over the three Earth Origin Grasses to Yang Chongyu and then went to find the other materials to refine the Earth Origin Pill.

Auxiliary materials are quite common, and their quality is all at level one.

It was quite easy for Lu Wenxing, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, to find materials of this rank.

After handing over the auxiliary materials for refining the Earth Origin Pill to Yang Chongyu, Lu Wenxing waited at the Pill Cauldron Sect for Yang Chongyu to refine the Earth Origin Pill.

During this period, Lu Wenxing did not inquire about the Burning Flame Mountains from Yang Chongyu, as if his only purpose in coming to the Pill Cauldron Sect was to ask the sect's alchemists to refine the Earth Origin Pill.

The reason Lu Wenxing didn't ask immediately was because he was too unfamiliar with the Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Dan Ding Sect. If he rashly inquired about the Burning Flame Mountains, he might not get the answer he wanted. By asking Yang Chongyu to refine the Earth Origin Pill, he had established a relationship with this Foundation Establishment elder of the Dan Ding Sect, making it relatively easier to inquire about the Burning Flame Mountains later.

Although Yang Chongyu, as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, failed to become a second-tier alchemist, his skill in refining first-tier pills was still quite good.

Three top-grade first-tier Earth Origin Grasses were gathered into three sets of materials for refining Earth Origin Pills. After spending nearly half a month, Yang Chongyu successfully refined these three sets of materials into pills.

After recovering slightly, he went to see Lu Wenxing.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I have successfully completed the task. The refining of the Earth Origin Pill went quite smoothly, and a total of ten pills were successfully made from the three sets of materials."

Yang Chongyu looked at Lu Wenxing with a smile and continued, "As we agreed before, we will each have half of these ten pills. There are five Earth Origin Pills in here. Please check them and see if there are any problems."

He still had five Earth Origin Pills left in his hand. Earth Origin Pills were not cheap, but what he valued most was the favor he gained by exchanging these pills.

There are quite a few cultivators in the Dan Ding Sect who are stuck at the eighth level of Qi Refining and unable to break through to the ninth level. Among these cultivators, some have the potential to break through to the Foundation Establishment realm.

He could use the five Earth Origin Pills in his hand to do someone a favor, and of course, he would still sell the Earth Origin Pills at the original price.

"Elder Yang's alchemy skills are superb; there is absolutely no problem with these five Earth Origin Pills!"

Lu Wenxing laughed loudly and immediately put away the five Earth Origin Pills.

“Those three Earth Element Grasses were picked from the Burning Flame Mountains. This time, when I entered the Burning Flame Mountains, I discovered that the demonic beasts deep within the Burning Flame Mountains are showing signs of spreading outwards. May I ask Elder Yang, is there a problem deep within the Burning Flame Mountains?”

A look of worry appeared on Lu Wenxing's face, as if he was genuinely concerned that something might have happened to the Burning Flame Mountains.

Yang Chongyu's smile faded. He glanced at Lu Wenxing, his brows furrowing slightly. After a moment, he spoke, "It's alright to tell you the truth. It's not exactly a secret. According to our sect leader, in two or three years, the volcanoes in the Burning Flame Mountains will erupt on a large scale. At that time, the Earth Flame Python deep within the Burning Flame Mountains will take the opportunity to transform into a dragon and break through to the third rank."

This is not exactly a secret; most of the Foundation Establishment forces near the Burning Flame Mountains know about the existence of that second-tier perfect Earth Flame Python.

That was the most powerful demonic beast in the Burning Flame Mountains.

The reason there are no third-tier demonic beasts is that the demonic beasts in the Burning Flame Mountains that broke through to the third tier were killed by the Golden Core True Person of the Heavenly Flame Sect as soon as they broke through.

The Heavenly Flame Sect, a Golden Core sect, is extremely powerful, and the Burning Flame Mountain Range also falls under its sphere of influence.

Because of the harsh environment of the Burning Flame Mountains, the Heavenly Flame Sect did not pay much attention to them.

However, once the demonic beasts in the Burning Flame Mountains break through to the third rank, the Heavenly Flame Sect will send Golden Core cultivators to kill these demonic beasts whose cultivation has just broken through to the third rank.

Third-tier demonic beasts possess strength comparable to human cultivators at the Golden Core stage, making them extremely powerful in combat.

If such a demonic beast is allowed to continue to grow, it will pose a great threat to human cultivators.

It's out now, I'm so nervous, I don't know how many subscriptions it will get (︶︿︶)
