Immortality: Starting with the Fruit of Taiyin

There weren't any particularly powerful figures among them; they were either from small, disgraced families or ambitious young rogue cultivators.

However, being in the marketplace, these powerless and isolated cultivators could only watch helplessly.

So finding some excuse to trick him into leaving the market was the only way they could think of...

"A poor performance, nothing to watch... I just don't know what the Han family's next plan is."

"But they definitely didn't come to kill me; they probably have other plans."

A thoughtful look flashed in Wang Xuan's eyes, and then he shook his head.

"Whatever they want, I'm not going out, no matter what they're planning."

"If they force me to leave, then I'll terminate the contract."

"That's the good thing about hiring external consultants. They don't have high benefits, so the contracts aren't too harsh, and the Han family can't forcibly restrict my actions."

"With a stable source of spirit stones, the Han Clan Pill Pavilion is no longer a necessary option, except for the fact that the free Earth Fire Chamber is a bit of a pity."

Let him be strong, the breeze still caresses the mountain ridge.

Let him be as arrogant as he wants, the bright moon still shines over the great river.

In short, Wang Xuan's way of dealing with these minor troubles was to cut them off at the first step, no matter what their plans were.

If you want me to leave the market, then I will stay in seclusion and not go out.

Small and medium-sized cultivation markets may not be able to do this, but large markets or even immortal cities under the control of Core Formation forces often have their own systems and lack nothing.

With enough spirit stones, most cultivation needs can be met.

With a calm smile, Wang Xuan prepared to refine a batch of Small Blood Purification Pills.

This is a rare, top-grade first-tier elixir that can resolve some of the accumulated erysipelas to a certain extent.

When used on demonic beasts, it helps first-order perfected demonic beasts to hone their foundation, cultivate, and purify their demonic power.

In fact, the Bluebird's preparations were almost complete.

Once Ye Yan's information is fully received, he can find an excuse to ask for a long leave, and Xiao Qing can prepare for seclusion to officially attempt to break through to the second stage.

……

Six months later, on the top floor of Han's Dan Pavilion.

Time flies, half a year has passed in a flash.

In the past six months, Wang Xuan has been living a very simple life, never leaving the market or even straying far from the core area of ​​the formation.

On this day, standing in front of the one-way window, Han Changde looked at the bustling scene outside.

"well……"

He let out a long sigh, his brow furrowed with worry and a sense of helplessness, showing signs of aging.

Now over eighty years old, having lived two-thirds of his life, he can no longer control the vital energy in his body.

The rest of his life, spanning several decades, has been nothing more than worrying about the future generations... But unlike the joy he felt when he first heard of the "brilliant plan" more than half a year ago, Han Changde now feels utterly speechless.

Where did this kid come from? He's so young, yet he has no energy at all. What kind of behavior is it to just stay cooped up in the market all day?

If you stay here, will you be able to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill?

Don't you find meditating and practicing every day boring?

Aren't you even a little bit tempted by the opportunity to earn spirit stones?

Although he didn't participate in any of the actions of those rogue cultivators and small Qi-refining families from beginning to end, he even secretly reprimanded Han Bo, who was being used as a pawn by the Mu family, after learning about it.

However, as the manager of Dan Pavilion, Han Changde knew some of the details.

If he hadn't anticipated it beforehand, he might not have been able to resist many temptations.

As a result, the junior remained unmoved, obediently meditating and refining elixirs, taking the situation calmly.

As a result, the subsequent plans were aborted before they even began... With another sigh, Han Changde was at a loss for what to do.

Even before making the decision, the head of the family had repeatedly instructed him to let things take their natural course and not to do anything unnecessary.

Therefore, even though those independent cultivators and small families had gradually given up on this tough nut to crack and were unwilling to waste any more time and energy, he never personally intervened to lure Wang Xuan away from the market under the guise of being an elder of the Han family.

Although Han Changde believed that even if he personally took action, it probably wouldn't be of much use.

Squeak—

"Um?"

"Big brother, what brings you here?"

"Something came up and I needed to talk to you, so I came straight here... What, that kid hasn't gone out yet?"

The wooden door behind him was pushed open, and Han Changming walked into the room.

He quickly turned around, not expecting that the head of the family had arrived at the market ahead of schedule.

His face wasn't looking too good, and Han Changde said with a hint of helplessness:

"Big brother."

"That kid is completely unreasonable and absolutely refuses to go out."

"And those unscrupulous rogue cultivators are not the kind of people who go down a dead-end path. They always bully the weak and fear the strong, and they won't act until they see a clear benefit."

"Seeing that there was no opportunity in the short term, they all gave up... After all, it wasn't a great opportunity, and it wasn't worth spending too much time on it."

"Judging from the current situation, he will probably stay in hiding until he reaches the peak of Qi cultivation."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Han Changming was also speechless.

He really didn't expect to encounter someone like Wang Xuan, who wouldn't give him a chance at all.

In recent years, due to the destruction of the three sects and two clans, many disciples of the sects with considerable wealth have become rogue cultivators.

In a short time, taking advantage of the turbulent situation in Chen Kingdom, many ruthless rogue cultivators and small families made a fortune.

After experiencing the benefits, they became unstoppable and paid close attention to similar matters.

So, according to Han Changming's original plan, as long as he praised Wang Xuan's cultivation speed a little in the family, there would only be people secretly watching him, wanting to do some business without any investment.

And when that time comes... that's when the Han family will make their appearance.

"What a pity."

Shaking his head slightly, Han Changming sighed that man proposes, God disposes.

"I originally planned to sit back and watch that junior get attacked by the rogue cultivators outside the market, and hopefully he would suffer some serious injuries, damaging his physical body and cutting off his chance of Foundation Establishment."

"Then, divine intervention will arrive to save him from dire straits. At a critical juncture when his emotions are running high or low, he will speak up again to recruit him and sign a legal contract with him."

"To prevent any accidents and to boost his confidence, I also had you specially send him a few high-grade first-tier defensive talismans."

"Even if he has some hidden trump card, my Han family can stay out of it, since we were not involved in these matters in the first place."

"I just didn't expect..."

Han Changming paused slightly, his expression complex.

The idea is good; it should be enough to deal with a Qi Refining cultivator who has little social experience.

Even if the other party realizes it years later, by then it will be too late to make a big fuss.

To his surprise, Wang Xuan didn't even leave the market, causing his plan to fail.

"Forget it," Han Changming sighed and shook his head, "Let's put this matter aside for now."

"never mind?"

Upon hearing this, Han Changde's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Brother, how can this be considered—"

"alright."

With a slight raise of his hand and a gradually solemn expression, Han Changming slowly said:

"Let's leave it at that for now. I have other things to take care of today."

"Changde...more than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye."

"Do you remember Lin Qingyi, the true disciple of the Nanhua Sect?"
