Chapter 95 The Geniuses of the Pill Cauldron Sect (Please Subscribe!)

"Clan leader, you've purchased way too many second-tier talismans!" Lu Cheng'an exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the second-tier talismans that Lu Wenxing had taken out.

Second-tier talismans are not cheap; the lowest price for one is 1,000 spirit stones.

The Chenguang Talisman, Wujia Talisman, and Feixing Talisman are not the lowest-grade second-tier talismans; they are definitely worth more than a thousand spirit stones each.

If these six second-tier low-grade talismans were exchanged for spirit stones, they would be worth nearly ten thousand spirit stones.

"You don't need to worry about that. The spirit stone mine in Yunling Valley has already started mining. With the income from the Black Pine Mountain Market and the Iron Mother Mine, the family has now accumulated quite a lot of spirit stones."

Of course, the most important thing is the second-tier ores and spiritual herbs you traded with Zhu Yan; that's enough to purchase these talismans.

Lu Wenxing chuckled softly and said, "You should hurry up and break through to the Foundation Establishment realm. Once you become a second-tier weapon refiner, you won't have to worry about these cultivation resources anymore."

If a cultivator masters one of the various cultivation arts to the second level, their ability to earn cultivation resources will be greatly enhanced.

Moreover, Lu Cheng'an also cooperated with the Fire-Slaying Earth Spider clan living in the Burning Flame Mountains. Once he became a second-tier weapon refiner, he would have advantages that other second-tier weapon refiners did not have, making it easier for him to obtain materials for refining second-tier magic weapons.

"Besides these second-tier talismans, I've also purchased some high-grade first-tier pills. Keep these with you at all times; they could save your life in a critical moment!" Lu Wenxing said solemnly.

The first-grade high-quality pills that Lu Wenxing mentioned come in many varieties, including pills for restoring mana, detoxifying, healing, and so on.

These pills were of extremely high quality and cost a considerable amount of spirit stones.

After handing the talismans and pills to Lu Cheng'an, Lu Wenxing continued, "The time we agreed upon with the Dan Ding Sect is fast approaching. Let's set off for the Dan Ding Sect now to avoid any unexpected situations."

Lu Cheng'an was already prepared, and he immediately agreed when Lu Wenxing proposed to set off for Dan Ding Sect.

The Lu family and the Dan Ding Sect were nine hundred miles apart, and Lu Wenxing and Lu Chengan arrived at the Dan Ding Sect in a short time.

This time, Yang Chongyu once again received Lu Cheng'an and his companion.

Lu Cheng'an was the one who followed the Dan Ding Sect cultivators into the Qingling Secret Realm, so Lu Wenxing did not stay in the Dan Ding Sect for too long.

After asking Yang Chongyu to look after Lu Cheng'an, Lu Wenxing left Dan Ding Sect directly.

“Cheng’an, I’ll take you to Junior Nephew Xu’s cave now. The First Elder and Second Elder will take you to the Azure Spirit Secret Realm in three days. You’ll stay in Junior Nephew Xu’s cave for the next three days,” Yang Chongyu said with a smile.

Because of Lu Cheng'an's displayed talent, the Dan Ding Sect's attitude towards the Lu family has changed somewhat.

Therefore, Yang Chongyu's attitude towards Lu Cheng'an became somewhat closer during their conversation.

The "nephew Xu" that Yang Chongyu mentioned is Xu Shao.

Xu Shao is the disciple of the Second Elder of the Dan Ding Sect and is also a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining. He has a high probability of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in the future, so his status in the Dan Ding Sect is not low.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior!"

After expressing his gratitude to Yang Chongyu, Lu Cheng'an followed Yang Chongyu into the interior of the Dan Ding Sect.

Although he had visited the Dan Ding Sect several times with the clan leader, he had only ever been to the Guest Reception Courtyard.

The Guest Reception Courtyard is not located within the Dan Ding Sect, nor is it even within the range of the Dan Ding Sect's protective mountain array.

As a sect primarily focused on alchemy, the Dan Ding Sect was extremely wealthy.

Although it is a Foundation Establishment sect, its mountain-protecting formation is a third-tier spirit formation, which, when fully activated, can withstand attacks from Golden Core cultivators.

When the Dan Ding Sect was founded, the spiritual veins of its mountain gate were only of the second rank. However, after many years of cultivation by the Dan Ding Sect, the spiritual veins of its mountain gate have become infinitely close to the third rank.

The Dan Ding Sect had the ability to cultivate its second-tier spiritual veins to the third tier, but it did not do so.

There is no need for that, and once the spiritual veins of the Dan Ding Sect are upgraded, it could bring about the destruction of the entire sect.

This was Lu Cheng'an's first time entering the Dan Ding Sect's mountain gate. He followed behind Yang Chongyu, his eyes full of curiosity.

"The concentration of spiritual energy here is many times higher than that on Green Crocodile Island!"

So many spirit peaks!

"The number of cultivators in the Dan Ding Sect is far too many!"

…………

After seeing the scene inside the Dan Ding Sect's mountain gate, Lu Cheng'an felt like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, and was deeply shocked by the sight inside the Dan Ding Sect.

The Dan Ding Sect is dotted with spiritual peaks, and waterfalls cascade down from these peaks, like the Milky Way pouring down from the heavens.

Spiritual flowers, herbs, and trees flourish on the peak, and celestial birds and beasts frolic leisurely in the mountains, creating a scene straight out of a celestial realm.

Although Lu Cheng'an was captivated by the scenery inside the Dan Ding Sect, he did not lose himself in the moment and remained close behind Yang Chongyu. "This is Qingzhu Peak, the place where Junior Nephew Yang cultivates. He is currently in seclusion cultivating a technique and has not yet broken through."

After I take you to Green Bamboo Peak, the servants on the mountain will arrange your accommodations. If you need anything, just tell them.

"Of course you can also send me a message, and I'll come right away."

There are several first-order spiritual veins on Green Bamboo Peak where Xu Shao is located. The spiritual energy on the peak is much richer than that of the previous Red Smoke Mountain.

Green bamboo peaks are covered with lush green jade bamboo, a first-tier spiritual plant.

First-tier Jade Bamboo can be used to forge magic swords. Although the price of Jade Bamboo is not high, the Jade Bamboo from a peak is still quite valuable.

These are all Xu Shao's private property!
After Yang Chongyu led Lu Chengan to the top of Qingzhu Peak, the servants on Qingzhu Peak immediately bowed and greeted Yang Chongyu.

Although Yang Chongyu had the lowest status among the six Foundation Establishment elders of the Dan Ding Sect, he was still an unapproachable figure in the eyes of these menial disciples.

"This is Lu Cheng'an, a good friend of your peak master. You must serve him well from now on!" Yang Chongyu said in a deep voice.

After handing Lu Cheng'an over to the menial disciples on Qingzhu Peak, he turned and left Qingzhu Peak.

"Young Master Lu, what are your instructions?"

After Yang Chongyu left, a young man dressed in black servant's clothes walked up to Lu Cheng'an with a fawning expression.

"Arrange a place for me to stay first!" Lu Cheng'an said with a smile, glancing at the servant.

This servant was already quite old, but his cultivation level was only at the second level of Qi Refining. If he didn't have any fortuitous encounters, his cultivation level would probably only remain at the early stage of Qi Refining for the rest of his life.

"There are still quite a few vacant cave dwellings on Green Bamboo Peak. I'll take you there now," the black-clad servant said with a smile, gesturing for Lu Cheng'an to walk towards the vacant cave dwellings on Green Bamboo Peak.

Lu Cheng'an would not stay on Green Bamboo Peak for too long, and he did not have any requirements for the cave dwelling he lived in.

Led by the black-clad servant, he randomly chose an empty cave dwelling to live in.

He had previously rewarded the black-clad servant with two spirit stones, which caused the servant to bow down in gratitude, looking extremely thankful.

After waving for the servants to leave, Lu Cheng'an entered the quiet room of the cave and began to refine the Shadow Void Sword that he had just completed.

This magic sword was forged by Lu Cheng'an himself, which made it easier for him to refine these magical artifacts than for other cultivators.

In less than three hours, he successfully imprinted his divine sense on the Shadow Sword.

He didn't rest after that; he began practicing the art of concealing his breath.

He was only two points away from perfecting the Concealing Breath Technique, and he wanted to see if he could perfect it before entering the Azure Spirit Secret Realm.

After Lu Cheng'an stayed at Qingzhu Peak for a day, Xu Shao, who was in seclusion, finally broke out of his seclusion.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I am truly sorry. I have been diligently cultivating my magic for some time now, and I only just broke through to the end." After breaking through to the end, Xu Shao knew that Lu Cheng'an had moved into his Green Bamboo Peak.

He then immediately went to Lu Chengan's cave on Qingzhu Peak.

Congratulations on your improved skills!

Lu Cheng'an laughed loudly and said, "I only moved into Qingzhu Peak yesterday."

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Xu Shao, Lu Cheng'an was greeted with a smile. Xu Shao then said, "The scenery of our Dan Ding Sect is quite nice. I'll show you around the sect later. Tonight, I'll invite Junior Brother Lin and the others for a drink. They'll be joining us in the Azure Spirit Secret Realm. You can take this opportunity to get to know them better."

Besides Lin Tao, the people Xu Shao mentioned included Shi Ningyu, Song Qingzhi, and Liu Muyuan, all of whom were cultivators from the Dan Ding Sect.

The Dan Ding Sect is indeed looking for suitable candidates to enter the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, but apart from Lu Cheng'an who meets the Dan Ding Sect's requirements, the strength of the other Qi Refining Realm cultivators is not as good as the cultivators trained by the Dan Ding Sect itself.

"The only person you can't offend here is Shi Ningyu. She is the granddaughter of our sect leader. She is only eighteen years old this year. Although she is young, her strength is extremely powerful, even more so than mine. Moreover, she is a first-grade high-level alchemist. I privately call her a little monster."

When Xu Shao introduced Shi Ningyu, his expression was slightly distorted, as if he had suffered a great loss at Shi Ningyu's hands.

“Song Qingzhi is the Grand Elder’s disciple. My master and the Grand Elder don’t get along very well. Song Qingzhi has always disliked me and Junior Brother Lin, but she is the weakest in terms of strength.”

When Xu Shao mentioned Song Qingzhi, he frowned, glanced at Lu Cheng'an, and continued, "You shouldn't provoke this woman either. Although she is weak, the Grand Elder is extremely protective of her own. Provoking her is more troublesome than provoking that little pervert Shi Ningyu."

"Liu Muyuan is the sect leader's eldest disciple. His strength is about the same as mine. He is a very hypocritical person. Don't get too close to him, or you'll be betrayed without even knowing it."

"You've already met Junior Brother Lin before. He's a bit dim-witted, so don't have too much contact with him, lest you catch his silliness."

After hearing Xu Shao's introduction, Lu Cheng'an chuckled softly, "I'll listen to you. I'll try not to have too much contact with them."
