Mortals: Practice the Three Thousand Great Ways to Gain Eternal Life

Chapter 21 Seeking the Foundation Building Pill

Half a month later, as soon as Lin Shou arrived outside the cave, he saw Lei Wanhe's dark and gloomy face.

"Are you back in a happy mood? Have you forgotten that you are a cultivator? Have you forgotten what your master said?"

Lei Wanhe's sinister voice made Lin Shou, who was originally in a good mood, immediately nervous, and he quickly apologized and explained.

"Master, please forgive me. I did not go out to have fun. I went to buy some elixirs."

"Pills, huh! You know it in your heart. You should know that you are a cultivator. The secular worldly energy has no benefit to your cultivation. Don't be attached to it."

Lei Wanhe snorted coldly, not believing Lin Shou's words at all, only because there was still a hint of worldly dust on Lin Shou's body, which could not be hidden from a high-level cultivator like him who was above the Jindan stage.

"Master has taught me that I will never go out without permission next time. This disciple bought a 500-year-old spiritual medicine for you at an auction. I hope you will accept it."

Seeing this, Lin Shou had no choice but to bleed a little. Besides, he did need help from Lei Wanhe, so he could afford this loss.

As for that matter, only Lei Wanhe can help at the moment.

"What, a five hundred year old elixir? You're actually that lucky."

When he heard the words "five hundred year old elixir", the gloom on Lei Wanhe's face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a look of surprise, which he blurted out almost instinctively.

"That's right, but I don't know whether it's true or not. I hope Master can check it out."

Lin Shou nodded and handed the jade box in his hand to Lei Wanhe with both hands.

"This...this, let's talk about it after we enter the cave. This is not the place to talk."

Seeing this, Lei Wanhe felt a little embarrassed and said with a dry laugh.

"Yes, I neglected it. Please come in, Master."

Hearing this, Lin Shou hurriedly stuffed the jade box into Lei Wanhe's hand, then took out the formation restriction token outside the cave, and dispersed the clouds outside to create a passage of about ten feet.

There's no way, Lei Wanhe is too fat.

"Good, good, good!"

After seeing the passage, Lei Wanhe, who was holding the elixir jade box tightly in his hand, said three good words again and stepped into the passage first. Lin Shou naturally followed closely with a respectful look on his face.

After a cup of tea, the master and disciple entered the hall of the cave. Lei Wanhe sat down, while Lin Shou stood aside and poured a cup of tea for Lei Wanhe.

"Please take a seat first. There is no need for us to be too polite as a master and disciple."

Lei Wanhe took a sip of tea calmly and then gave the order.

"Yes, thank you, Master."

Hearing this, Lin Shou sat upright on the stone chair beside him, his expression of respect not fading at all.

Lei Wanhe had already opened the jade box and was checking the elixir inside.

"Yes, it is indeed a five or six hundred year old high-quality elixir. It is not easy for me to obtain this quality elixir. It is a great opportunity for you to obtain it. Did you encounter any danger on the way back?"

A quarter of an hour later, Lei Wanhe asked with some concern on his face.

“It’s not that there isn’t one, but with the help of the magic weapon given by Master, it was successfully resolved.”

Lin Shou nodded in acknowledgement.

"That's good. Next time, don't go out without permission. If you really want to go out, tell your master or the headmaster. We will send a foundation-building disciple to go with you. It's a good thing to go out and broaden your horizons."

Lei Wanhe breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

Sure enough, when there are benefits, the attitude is different.

"Disciple understands. Thank you, Master."

Hearing this, Lin Shou could only agree obediently. "No matter what, your spiritual medicine is indeed of great use to me. Just ask for whatever you want. As long as it's not too excessive, I can agree to it."

Lei Wanhe spoke again and said something that made Lin Shou feel relieved.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master. I will take this magical medicine as a token of my filial piety. I do not dare to expect any reward."

"One thing is another. Master has already said, what do you want?"

Lei Wanhe shook his head and reiterated.

"Disciple wants the foundation-building pill, and wants to build the foundation as soon as possible."

Lin Shou made a request. Along the way, Lin Shou did encounter a danger, which was the Lingshou Mountain Market. No wonder the business was not good. People even started killing people and stealing treasures.

Of course, although he was only in the Qi Refining Stage, he was able to resolve the problem without any danger thanks to the top-level magical weapon on him and the help of the "Green Emperor Wood Emperor Art".

Therefore, Lin Shoucai knew even more clearly that he had to succeed in building his foundation as soon as possible, and taking foundation-building pills was undoubtedly the fastest way.

Although there is no bottleneck before the Heavenly Spiritual Root Core Formation Stage, it does not mean that elixir resources are not needed for cultivation.

"It seems that you encountered a lot of danger when you went out this time. The sect does have these foundation-building pills, but it's just not time to distribute them yet. So, there's nothing I can do. This is the rule set by the sect's Nascent Soul stage uncle Linghu. It's to prevent us, the Jindan cultivators, from forcibly taking the sect's existing foundation-building pills and giving them to younger disciples, which would result in the disciples who were originally qualified to get the foundation-building pills having no foundation-building pills to take and thus being unable to build their foundations."

After listening to Lin Shou's request, Lei Wanhe was silent for a moment and shook his head.

"Is it true that Master has no solution at all?"

Hearing this, Lin Shou's face changed slightly, and he said with some surprise.

He remembered that Hong Fu gave Dong Xuan'er several foundation-building pills, which enabled her to successfully build her foundation. Why didn't it work for Lei Wanhe?

He originally wanted to use the Foundation Establishment Pill to successfully establish his foundation as quickly as possible, but now it seems that this is not possible.

After all, only by becoming a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage could he enter and leave the Huangfeng Valley freely and possess a certain ability to protect himself.

This is extremely important for his future cultivation.

"It's not that there is no way, but you have to pay a price?"

Lei Wanhe hesitated for a moment and said.

“Master, can you please explain clearly?” Lin Shou’s expression tensed and he asked quickly.

"Marriage!"

Lei Wanhe uttered two words that surprised Lin Shou.

"Marriage?"

Lin Shou was stunned.

"Yes, in addition to the sect, the three major families also have a certain share of this foundation-building pill. After so many years, they still have some surplus in their respective families. As long as you agree to the marriage, they will definitely not mind giving you a foundation-building pill to help you succeed in building your foundation."

Lei Wanhe also noticed Lin Shou's confusion and continued to explain.

"I see. If that's the case, then forget it."

After listening to Lei Wanhe's explanation, Lin Shou was silent for a moment, then shook his head and refused.

For him, although he had enjoyed himself happily in the Mo Mansion for a few days, he was still unwilling to marry into the three major immortal cultivation families of the Huangfeng Valley.

After all, this would involve too many things.

So, he decided to give up.
