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

Chapter 73: Fairy Zi Ling's Parents

"Then why are you still talking nonsense? Why don't you go find them? If you delay my young master from condensing the golden elixir and surpass Wen Tianren's family, you will not be able to survive." The young man's face turned red and he roared.
After all, whether he could condense the golden elixir and advance to the Jindan stage was closely related to his life and the lives of his subordinates.

Once his mortal enemy Wen Tianren condenses the golden elixir first, he will become a cultivator in the Jindan stage.

If he were accepted as a disciple by the Six Paths Supreme Saint of the Holy Demon Island, then he and everyone around him would have their souls extracted and their spirits refined by Wen Tianren, and they would not even be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."

The Foundation Establishment cultivator who was reporting turned pale and said in panic.

"roll."

The young man shouted angrily,
If he didn't want to form the elixir first, he wouldn't have chosen this secret method of forming the elixir with its disadvantages.

But he is far inferior to Wen Tianren in terms of qualifications and status, and Wen Tianren is in seclusion on the Holy Demon Island to form an elixir. Under such circumstances, how can he not be anxious.

After all, he originally thought that Lin Shou would stay on Kuixing Island for at least three to five years.

However, he did not expect that his Taoist companion would leave Kuixing Island and go to Tianxing City as soon as he established his foundation.

If he cannot devour Lin Shouyuan's soul, which is far superior to that of other cultivators of the same level, and successfully practice that secret technique, there is no way he can break through to the Jindan stage before Wen Tianren.

Become the first of the Six Paths Supreme Saints of the Holy Demon Island. Only the youngest Jindan cultivators in the Holy Demon Island can become the disciple of the Six Paths Supreme Saints and the young master of the Holy Demon Island. Even Yuanying cultivators have to be in awe of this existence.

As long as he becomes the young master of the Holy Demon Island, he will have great hope of condensing his Nascent Soul in the future, advancing to the Nascent Soul stage, and becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator with a lifespan of a thousand years.

This was his long-cherished dream, and now that he was only one step away, he naturally couldn't give up.

At the same time, Lin Shou, Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei had already arrived at the rental place of the Holy Mountain Cave Mansion in Tianxing City, and listened to the white-robed monk of the Star Palace who was like an "agent" introducing the situation of the Holy Mountain Cave Mansion to them.

"Every circle of the Holy Mountain from bottom to top is divided into eighty-one floors. The first fifty floors are open to outsiders who practice immortal cultivation. As long as you have spirit stones, you can rent a place to practice. The last thirty floors are only open to the adults of the Star Palace. As for the highest floor, it is the Holy Palace, which is the residence of the two Holy Lords. No one is allowed to enter."

“There are currently six vacant caves on the thirty-first floor, seven on the thirty-seventh floor, five on the thirty-ninth floor, and two on the forty-seventh floor… Here are the prices and the structures and functions of the caves.” The white-robed monk from Xinggong took out a pile of jade slips and placed them on the table.

Seeing this, Lin Shou and Xin Ruyin looked at it quickly, and then Xin Ruyin was shocked by the price of the Holy Mountain Cave.

He wanted to leave but unexpectedly Lin Shou had already spoken.

"Let's go with this cave!"

As he spoke, Lin Shou handed the relevant jade slip to the white-robed monk from the Xing Palace.

It is a fully functional cave on the 47th floor.

"Okay, the cost is 3,600 Spiritual Stones!"

Seeing that Lin Shou actually wanted to rent the cave on the 47th floor, the white-robed monk from Xinggong smiled and said immediately, as if he was afraid that Lin Shou would regret it.

After all, caves of this level are rarely rented even by Jindan stage cultivators.

Every time they rent out a house, they get a big reward.

There is not much difference between this and Lin Shou’s previous life as a sales agent.

After Lin Shou took out the spirit stone, the white-robed cultivator from Xinggong took out the cave token with an even more intense smile on his face.

"This is the forbidden token of the cave. With this token, you can enter and exit the cave freely. But after a hundred years, this token will be taken back. I hope you will keep it properly."

"Thank you. Farewell."

After getting the token, Lin Shou handed it to Xin Ruyin, as if he was handing it over to the housekeeper.

Xin Ruyin's cheeks blushed but she did not refuse. She followed Lin Shou with Xiaomei like a little wife.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the "new house".

This "new house" was just as described in the jade slip. Not only was it remote and quiet, it also had a large empty medicine garden.

The most important thing is that the spiritual energy is extremely abundant, which is far beyond the ordinary spiritual veins. Even the cave in the Yellow Maple Valley before is too different.

"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this cave is so rich."

Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei blushed and said in surprise.

"Yes, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is indeed far inferior to the place where we practiced before. Here, we can improve by leaps and bounds, which is also very beneficial to our practice."

Lin Shou nodded in agreement.

"Especially the formation of this cave, I'm afraid it's not much worse than the one you set up. This Star Palace is really generous. So many caves are all set up with formations of this level. Wow, it's really amazing."

"Yes! However, this level of formation should only have these few layers. Moreover, if there are more, the value will be greatly reduced."

Xin Ruyin nodded slightly in agreement.

"Well, you guys rest here first, I'll go buy some things."

Lin Shou said again.

"it is good."

In this regard, Xin Ruyin did not ask Xiaomei for help. After all, this was Lin Shou's private matter. If Lin Shou did not take the initiative to speak, she would not ask more questions.

Afterwards, Lin Shou went to the nearest market and bought a lot of beautiful jade and colorful grass.

The rainbow grass can be used to refine some Qi-refining or healing elixirs, so many medicine shops in Tianxing City have them in stock. And Lin Shou bought almost all the rainbow grass nearby in one go.

This really surprised many drugstore owners, but they didn't ask too many questions. Anyway, for Luanxinghai, this rainbow grass was available as much as one wanted, but it was almost the same.

Afterwards, under the astonished gaze of Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei, he inlaid these beautiful jades in a secret room of more than ten meters in size, leaving no inch of space unused.

"What is this doing?"

Xin Ruyin and Lin Shouman were puzzled.

"Hey, do you know the gold-eating bug?"

Lin Shou chuckled and took out the gold-eating bug from the spirit beast bag.

Before they mature, gold-eating beetles rely on their large numbers to win.

If there are only a dozen or dozens of them, they will not be of much use. However, if there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of them, it will be enough to become his killer weapon.

Moreover, other people may not know how to cultivate gold-eating bugs, but Fatty Wang has already told him.

That's the neon grass.

"Gold-eating insect, what is this, a spiritual insect?"

Seeing this, Xin Ruyin said thoughtfully.

"Yes, this is the information about the gold-eating bugs and how to feed them. Although it is not very detailed, it is enough. You can help feed these gold-eating bugs while I am out hunting monsters. When you have some success, you will know how powerful these gold-eating bugs are. They will definitely be useful in the future."

Lin Shou took out a jade slip and handed it to Xin Ruyin, explaining with a smile,
"Okay, leave it to me. I will make sure Brother Lin takes good care of it."

After hearing Lin Shou's words, Xin Ruyin nodded slightly, took the jade slip and storage bag, smiled sweetly and agreed.

"Of course I believe you two."

"I will rest for a few more days, and then go to the outer sea to hunt monsters. As for you, just practice in the cave and feed these gold-eating insects."

Lin Shou nodded and smiled.

"Ok!"

Xin Ruyin naturally had no objection to this. "Do you need Xiaomei to serve you?"

Suddenly, Xin Ruyin said another request that made Xiaomei's cheeks blush and she felt extremely shy.

It buried its head in the mountains and didn't dare to lift it up.

"No need, let's talk about it after Xiaomei builds her foundation!"

In response, Lin Shou was just slightly stunned, then he looked at Xiaomei and spoke.

After all, preserving the Yuan Yin body can still increase the success rate of building the foundation. Although the probability is not high, it is better than nothing.
"Ok!"

After hearing Lin Shou's words, Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei looked a little gloomy, but they had no choice but to agree.

Afterwards, Lin Shou found a quiet room in the cave, lay on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.

……

"Miss, does Senior Lin dislike this servant?"

Xiaomei no longer looked shy, instead she only looked gloomy and sad. Obviously, she felt very upset that Lin Shou rejected Xin Ruyin's contact.

After all, Xiaomei had already prepared for this matter.

As for Lin Shou's character, she also had great trust in him. She believed that even if she was a concubine, he would not treat her badly. Moreover, there was Xin Ruyin.

At that time, the master and servant will serve Lin Shou together, one as a Taoist companion and the other as a concubine. The two sisters will work together and there will be no need to worry about Lin Shou being snatched away by some vixen outside.

"No, didn't Brother Lin already say that? I'll wait for you to build your foundation."

Xin Ruyin smiled sweetly and comforted him.

"But...Miss, hasn't she already established her foundation?"

Xiaomei pouted again and defended herself.

"You girl."

Hearing this, Xin Ruyin's cheeks turned red and she said coquettishly.

……

Lin Shou naturally had no idea about what was going on between the two girls, and even if he knew, he would not interfere.

He would naturally accept Xiaomei and Xin Ruyin, both the master and servant, but not now, at least after he had formed the Dan. Now was not the right time.

……

Three days passed in a flash. After a good rest and feeling refreshed, Lin Shou said goodbye to Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei. He then bought a batch of necessary things at the Tianxing City Market and headed straight to the Starry Sky Hall of the Star Palace.

This Starry Sky Palace is equipped with a teleportation array that also leads to the outer sea.

However, Lin Shou also brought a teleportation array with him, and would set it up once he found a suitable place. This way, he would not need to rely on the Xinggong's teleportation array.

The reason why the others did not set up a teleportation array was mainly because this kind of long-distance teleportation required a large teleportation order or a large teleportation talisman, and very few people had the former. The latter was only drawn by Xinggong in the entire Chaos Star Sea.

Moreover, this kind of long-distance teleportation array requires materials that are rare, and cultivators and sects simply cannot afford to find them. It is better to borrow the teleportation array in the Star Palace Starry Sky Hall.

Moreover, there is no large teleportation talisman, so the teleportation array of the Starry Sky Palace is cheaper.

But Lin Shou is different. As long as he sets up a teleportation array, he can enter and exit the outer star sea at any time without being restricted by the Star Palace.

……

This is a large hall built of white marble. On it there is a huge plaque several meters long with the three big characters "Starry Sky Hall" written in gold powder.

At this moment, at the entrance of the hall, Lin Shou was looking up at the plaque. After making sure that he was not in the wrong place, Lin Shou entered.

After walking through a short corridor, they entered a spacious hall that was more than 20 meters long and wide.

At this moment, in this hall, other monks were conversing with the white-robed monk from the Star Palace.

Behind them, there were several rows of teleportation arrays of the same size. In front of each teleportation array was a small stone tablet with the name of the island written on it, making it easy to see at a glance.

Just as Lin Shou was looking around and preparing to choose one of the islands, a pleasant and gentle voice sounded.

"Which island do you plan to go to, fellow Daoist?"

Following the sound, he saw a man and a woman smiling at him kindly.

The two men were extraordinarily handsome, and the women were dressed in purple palace clothes, looking elegant, luxurious, and gorgeous, with every frown and smile full of charm.

Among all the women Lin Shou had ever seen, only Nangong Wan could be better. Therefore, the man beside her naturally became the object of envy of other cultivators in the hall.

At the same time, both of them are Jindan stage cultivators, especially the man who is at the peak of middle Jindan stage. He is only one step away from advancing to the late Jindan stage.

"You can take any seat, young man."

Although both of them were Jindan stage cultivators, Lin Shou still did not show much fear and answered truthfully with a bow.

As for whether the two had bad intentions, Lin Shou didn't care much. Even if they had bad intentions, he could deal with it.

As long as they are not Nascent Soul cultivators, there is not much that can make Lin Shou afraid.

"It just so happens that we are in the same boat, so why not go together? This way, you can save some spirit stones."

Hearing Lin Shou's answer, the woman smiled and invited him.

"what!"

Seeing this, Lin Shou glanced at the other monks in the hall and realized that there were already six of them.

The teleportation array can only transport seven people at a time, and each time costs 700 spirit stones, so it doesn't matter how many people there are. Anyway, there are cultivators going in and out of the outer sea every day, so there is no need to worry about not being able to wait for people.

Just wait a little longer.

"Okay, excuse me then."

After thinking it over, Lin Shou nodded and agreed. Then, he walked forward and went to the teleportation array on the nearest island with the man and woman, as well as several other cultivators.

They didn't speak to each other. After handing over the spirit stones and affixing the large teleportation talisman given by the white-robed monk from the Star Palace, they disappeared into the teleportation array in a burst of white light.

……

Then, after a blank moment in their minds, the seven people were teleported to a simple stone house. The house was empty except for an expressionless Star Palace monk.

This cultivator from the Star Palace seemed to be only in the middle stage of foundation building. He was sitting cross-legged in meditation in a corner of the stone house, and had no intention of paying any attention to the seven people who came.

Lin Shou and the other seven didn't care, and the anxious ones rushed out of the stone house directly.

Suddenly, a noisy sound came over me. It was obvious that it was quite lively outside.

Seeing this, Lin Shou also went out of the stone house with the others.

"I am Wang Heng, and this is my wife Zhou Yuan. If you don't mind, why don't you join us in hunting monsters? This way it will be safer."

As soon as we left the stone house, the man invited us.

"No need, I still have the confidence to protect myself."

Lin Shou shook his head and refused.
