Mushroom Man

The ninth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower.

Completely naked and utterly disheveled, Morobi clenched her fists, vowing to break free from the immortal's control...

The mysterious Celestial Mushroom Immortal, the purple-robed youth Zixiao, leaps down into the sea of ​​clouds, searching for the reincarnation of the Celestial Venerable...

Various scenes rose and fell, appearing and disappearing.

Wu Liang put away the Formless Token and slowly withdrew his gaze from these scenes.

His eyes were deep and thoughtful as he pondered to himself.

"Fortunately, I've been keeping an eye on the movements of other successors of the Formless lineage during this time."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that the Eight Heavenly Dragons Bodhisattva Sudhana had actually joined forces with those five eminent Buddhist monks and was heading towards the Dragon Palace..."

Wu Liang's expression was solemn, his eyes filled with apprehension.

He really didn't expect such a coincidence.

Five eminent Buddhist monks were chasing after the Taoist priest, which unexpectedly attracted the attention of the Bodhisattva Sudhana, who had just descended to the mortal realm.

Originally, there was only one mushroom fairy, Sudhana, who is about to return to the Dragon Palace.

Now look what's happened, six of them have come at once!

This isn't some cabbage; it's the real deal—a mushroom fairy!
Any one of those Buddhist mushroom immortals could crush him into dust.

The mere presence of Sudhana Bodhisattva had already filled him with dread, making him wish he could flee immediately.

Now that six Buddhist mushroom immortals have arrived, if they were to block the Dragon Palace, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Especially those Buddhist mushroom immortals, it seems they are specifically collecting Wuxiang's successors, wanting to kill Wuxiang Tianzun in the cradle.

Meanwhile, the famous "reincarnation of the Celestial Venerable" Gu Zhenren happened to be hiding in the Dragon Palace. If he were discovered by the other party, those bald monks would probably be laughing their heads off on the spot.

"No, we must escape the Dragon Palace immediately, as far away as possible!"

"We absolutely cannot let these mushroom fairies block the Dragon Palace. Otherwise, given the abilities of that Bodhisattva Sudhana, I fear I will be completely exposed in a single encounter."

Wu Liang's face turned ugly, and he immediately stood up.

He had not forgotten how Sudhana had enslaved the Taoist priest in an instant.

Others may not know the methods of Sudhana, but he knew them all because of the blue-handed bodhisattva.

The Taoist priest owed the Bodhisattva Sudhana money for saving his life, which was tantamount to taking his treasure.

That is why he was forced to let Sudhana do as he pleased.

Even a mushroom immortal like the Taoist Master Mei was powerless against Sudhana, let alone him.

He obtained a large amount of 'treasure' from the Dragon Palace's treasury.

If he were to actually encounter Sudhana, his fate would likely be no better than that of the Unlucky Taoist, and might even be worse.

Moreover, even without Sudhana Bodhisattva taking action, he would be recognized by those mushroom fairies in a single glance.

After all, the Taoist priest who was captured by them, and Hua Youque in his blessed land, had seen him with their own eyes.

In this situation, he had absolutely no room for maneuver; he only had one choice…

That means run away as fast as you can!

Those mushroom fairies are extremely fast; they should arrive at the Dragon Palace soon.

He doesn't have much time left...

At the latest, half a day; at the earliest, less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, those mushroom fairies will come to kill you.

He must do everything in his power to escape the Dragon Palace immediately!

"Fortunately, I have successfully refined the Dragon Blood Mushroom in the past two days."

"Next, all we need to do is awaken Ao Miaoyin and have the Silver Dragon King send us both out of the Dragon Palace."

Wu Liang walked to the edge of the blood pool and immediately reached out. The next moment, ripples spread across the blood pool, and a freshly made fourth-rank Dragon Blood Mushroom flew out.

Wu Liang held it in his palm and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

He used up a lot of dragon mushroom materials to refine this mushroom.

The difficulty of refining Dragon Blood Mushrooms was much higher than he had imagined.

After all, it was a four-stage mushroom, and it failed several times along the way, resulting in the loss of a lot of mushroom material.

He had to try three or four times just to finally succeed in refining the Dragon Blood Mushroom.

If it weren't for the fact that most of the mushroom materials for refining Dragon Blood Mushrooms were provided by the Silver Dragon King, he would probably have gone bankrupt long ago.

Fortunately, Wu Liang did not come away empty-handed.

At the very least, he turned misfortune into blessing. The experience gained from several failed attempts to refine fourth-grade mushrooms successfully allowed him to reach the level of a Refining Master!
At this point, Wu Liang's achievements in alchemy were no longer a weakness.

Although he is still not as good as Yan Zhaodi overall, he has completely surpassed Yan Zhaodi when it comes to blood fungus.

What does it mean for an ordinary mushroom master to reach the level of a master in a particular style?
It should be noted that many newly promoted sixth-level mushroom immortals may not even possess several master-level martial arts styles.

A master of alchemy can provide Wu Liang with far more help than a master of blood alchemy.

At least before Wu Liang becomes an immortal, he will no longer have to worry about not having enough skill to refine mushrooms.

The Refining Master is already capable of refining all ordinary mushrooms.

As long as he has enough resources and time, he can digest the Yu Dao inheritance within him.

He was absolutely certain that within one or two years, he could become a being like the Golden Dragon King, standing at the pinnacle of mortal existence.

At the latest, within three years, he can begin the process of ascending to immortality.

Then it will be time for him to demand an explanation from others.

Wu Liang took a deep breath, and immediately, with a thought, arrived at the fourth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower.

Although the situation is urgent and cannot be delayed, there is still time to get the mushroom frying results from Yan Zhaodi.

"Owner!"

Yan Zhaodi, with dark circles under her eyes, forced a smile upon seeing Wu Liang, disregarding her exhaustion.

She opened her palm, revealing a fourth-level Yu Dao mushroom.

“Master, Zhao Di is useless. She only managed to refine this Clearing Mushroom for you.”

"As for that Void-Stabilizing Mushroom, Zhao Di has only just begun refining it; it will take another two or three days to complete..."

Yan Zhaodi lowered her head and spoke pitifully, looking as if she were blaming herself and feeling guilty.

Seeing this, Wu Liang couldn't help but pat her little head and said, "Zhao Di has done a great job."

"It is quite amazing that a mushroom that has never been processed before can be produced in just two days without any mistakes that would damage the mushroom material."

"As I said before, there's no rush for this mushroom refining task. You can take your time refining it."

Wu Liang's words were not meant as a consolation, but rather to indicate that Zhao Di had indeed done the best she could.

At the very least, if it were him, it would certainly be possible. He could refine a mushroom that he had never refined before in just two days without making any mistakes.

When Yan Zhaodi heard her master praise her, she immediately beamed with joy and happily responded.

He then threw himself back into the mushroom smelting business with renewed fighting spirit.

Wu Liang withdrew his gaze and instantly refined the fourth-stage Clearing Mushroom.

The two killer moves he had planned to build, Qiankun Ding and Kongkong Zhan, were missing Dingkong Mushroom and Qingkong Mushroom respectively.

Although the Space-Stabilizing Mushroom has not yet been refined, the Clearing Mushroom is enough for him to replicate the Space Slash, a deadly move.

"It's time to leave the Dragon Palace..." (End of Chapter)
